sigh. made a bluesky backup just in case the worst happens. its “majorchrctrundeath” just take the vowels out of character. my pillowfort is “majorcharacterundeath” (just like here)
a lot of the walking trails here have these signs that are meant to inform you about local flora and fauna just like. for fun. but i really enjoy the fact that they kind of resemble warning signs.

My brother (17) and his friends like to play a game called “Manhunt” where several boys on foot are “hunted” by two boys in a car, whilst they share their phone locations on a timer. It’s basically a city-wide game of tag. My brother’s behavior made them add the rule that you cannot just sprint off straight into the woods (he’s a bow hunter and outdoorsman and they are city boys).
My parents consent to him playing this game. He called my mom while I was with her and said “hey if it’s cool I’m gonna have the boys over at the house to start a manhunt later” and my mom was like of course sweetie have fun.
2274: preston joins the commonwealth minutemen, age 17.
idk thinking a lot about preston's mother lately--i think she started pinning his hat.
anyway, mr. and mrs. garvey raised a really good man.
day 5 of @prestongarveyweek: animals
i like to think some of preston's fondest memories are of his life on his parents' farm. one of his proudest moments was helping his father deliver blossom, his favorite brahmin.
i drew preston and his mother, alma, here. i think i like the name john for mr. garvey. ☺️
The thing about professional wrestling that I find really and truly fascinating is that it takes place in a setting where
Most settings where magic is real are about magic. The wizards are the main characters or the antagonists. The presence of ghosts or mutants comes up within the first three sentences of any reasonable summary, or is a major plot twist that changes the entire story.
Meanwhile pro wrestling is a combat sport with scripted outcomes and surrounding storylines. "And also sometimes they do necromancy" is such an extraneous detail not worth mentioning. But also I cannot stress enough that sometimes they do necromancy.
You can go an entire show with zero wizard nonsense, but at any given point on any show in any promotion it wouldn't be shocking for a wizard (or demon or alien or vampire etc) to appear.
The wizards don't even win particularly often. Having actual magic powers that you use to cheat is actually somewhat less effective than "hitting someone with a blunt object while the referee is distracted" or "being large".
Funniest possible approach to magic.
there are three notable magical wrestlers to have gotten wins via magic:
so the way to be successful as a magical wrestler is to make friends with some kind of demon or devil and let them possess you, or to get really into Limp Bizkit
