one of my earliest video game memories was my neighbor from down the street burning me a copy of Roller Coaster Tycoon onto a CD and giving it to me for free, with the caveat that one day a week he would sit behind me and backseat game HARD. like "build this here, okay now build this here, no not there, HERE, okay now make a path here," etc etc. i never minded it at the time, i genuinely had no idea how to play so i thought he was teaching me. years later i learned that him and his family were Orthodox Jewish and him backseat gaming me was his way of getting around the Sabbath ban on playing video games
as a child being told "the moon controls the tides" with no additional explanation was like. oh okay. you want me to believe in magic? you're talking about magic right now? okay. fine
sorry. only semi-related but i simply wasn't ready for "the sun is a distant gorilla". thank you NASA

my friend was testing perfumes out at the store and she sniffed a bottle and anounced "ngl this bitch kind of sucks" The girl at the counter suddenly looked really sad, and my friend was like "I'm sorry, I wasn't talking about you." And the girl looked up and said "No don't worry, I didn't think that, but I just crushed a ladybug with my shoe" We both took a peak over the counter. she'd stepped on a red m&m

And so Sanji lay there, slain by love’s cruel arrow upon the cold stone beneath his throne.
Each breath was a reminder of the one he had chosen to abandon, not for lack of love, but to keep them alive. And with every breath, the weight upon his chest grew heavier, until even breathing felt like another burden.
At last, he crumbled beneath his lonely throne, and the cold stone rose to embrace what little warmth remained in him.
The windows lay shattered by his own hand, broken in one desperate attempt to flee the cage that had become his fate. But he had realized too late that destiny was not so easily escaped. Some paths, once chosen, refused to be changed.
Even for him.
And so Sanji stopped fighting.
He let the cold stone cradle him. Let his eyes fall shut. Let the world beyond those shattered windows fade away.
And with his final breaths, he thought not of the throne above him, nor the cage around him...
He thought only of the person he loved.
The one he had left behind so they might survive.
And, irrigation canals.
Saves 82% of water evaporation. 💧
Actually do cover our fields.
Solar doesn't compete with agriculture, and can be beneficial to it.
Just also cover our car parks.
I’m just thinking about how many times I’ve heard my dad on a long call with an obvious scammer and I’ll start begging him to get off the phone because I always think he’s a very easy mark and he’ll just keep going and then after a while he’ll say something like “I died 20 years ago” and hang up.
Virgin Millennial Daughter with 20 hrs of screentime a day: Dad! They’re scamming you! Dad! Stop! They will take your savings and your identity! Hang up before they SWAT you!
Chad Boomer dad with a flip phone he has not recharged since 2014: Well gee I wish I could give you my bank account number after you spent all this time on the phone explaining this car deal with me but I don’t have access to my finances because I am in Rikers for felony murder.
I haven't actively used this site in years but this grabbed my imagination so thoroughly I had to draw it

you know what? the years really do start coming and they really don’t stop coming
i like that the maned wolf and the bush dog are each other's closest living relatives. they're like cartoon henchmen
if i had a dick i would love to have a disappointing orgasm in the shower while thinking of something or someone that i felt i should not be thinking about & then stand under the water with my forehead against a wall watching the proof of my guilt & shame go down the drain
The insight I get into the female mind thanks to this website is amazing.

pause everybody take notes. real trans ally
you know he'd be a shit boss. you're not getting henchperson health insurance

The heros journey keeps trying to get me but ive been unloading an entire clip of 9mm into every mentor that tries to teach me anything. Ive killed 7 wizards this way.
Refusal of the Call
GET AWAY FROM ME
HOT TIP: if you need enrichment to stave off diseases of the mind but don't have any puzzles you can just eat a bunch of pistachios and then sort thru the shell pile to find matching halves and superglue them back together
this is awful. try it
hey man quick question. you okay?
that's none of my business
a character who truly, legitimately goes “but why does that matter?” about their feelings when someone who cares about them asks. and the sudden falling of everyone around them’s faces as they realize that this person doesn’t recognize themself as someone who needs or should be taken care of. i want Everyone to hurt. surprise at the idea, worry for them, horror at not having noticed. do you see this person who doesn’t think of themselves as a person?
op's pfp is environmental storytelling
im gonna change it in 2 months and i hope everyone reblogs this version of the post
I do think that kids media should have big words in it. I unironically learned a lot of vocabulary from looking up words I heard while watching Phineas and Ferb when I was growing up.
hey rex, how come you get TWO people to smooch?
[ID: Padme and Anakin, dressed for a dinner party in 501st blue, nudge along a rumpled, blushing, and very well-kissed captain Rex. Rex has lipstick marks all over him. He looks a little dazed and has a “loading…” icon above his head.]
thanks to @phoenixyfriend for helping me figure out outfits for padme and anakin!! references under the cut
bonus:
Part of why I've been fixated on dmmd since I was eleven is because of how delightful aoba is. Guy raised by his grandma who lived way too much life for a guy his age and now has chronic pain and the disposition of a cantankerous 40 year old union worker. And he's bicurious.
(Side note i always liked his friendship with Mizuki. One of like two people Aoba respects. I think hed be more willing to be casually intimate w him bc of their history.)
