if you make that female character less goth as a sign of her ~healing~ or ~improving her life~ I will kill you

make her MORE gloriously dark and over-the-top. she's growing into herself. she's getting comfortable being who she wants to be. do you see the vision. I am crying and throwing things

had a deltarune dream (a deltadream, if you will) and the only thing i remember is the fun gang split up in the dark world and kris took the opportunity to sneak off, remove their soul, and straight up smoke a cigarette on-screen. susie and ralsei passed the area and saw them but the lighting was fucked and kris immediately absconded (and i think kris also looked different from when they have the soul??) so they didnt recognize kris and thought there was some other lightner in the dark world with them. then they met up and ralsei was concerned because "oh no smoking is bad for their health :(" and susie was concerned because "oh no another person got into the dark world" with implied concern about the underage smoking because like. something something teenagers dont turn to drugs unless theyre miserable. anyways woke up made this

so i wore a pride flag pin to work the other day and the kids were all interested (obviously) (find me a classroom of preschoolers who are not obsessed with rainbows) (i'll wait) so they crowded around to see.

"aww!" they said, "it's a flag!!"

but the thing is: they're little. a lot of them don't really have a handle on all their mouth sounds yet.

such as, notably, that tricky tricky "L" sound.

I took my little brother (autistic, mostly non verbal) out and he was using his voice keyboard to tell me something, and this little boy (maybe 4 or 5?) heard him and asked me "Is he a robot??" I tried to explain to him that no, he isn't a robot, he just communicates differently, but my darling brother was in the background max volume "I am robot I am robot I am robot I am robot"

Bipedal so fucking stupid. You look at a cat or a dog lying down and you're like "hell yeah that looks exactly right. that looks so comfortable." Human lies down and looks like Peter Griffin Death Pose.

my friends and i do an annual camping trip to freedive and spearfish on one of the outer islands like Tl’x’óy7ten or Lhéwqemeng, but last year we decided on a smaller island where we don't usually stay overnight. I was the only one with Friday off and it was going to storm Saturday so I went out a day before everyone else to set up camp before the rain hit. that night i was the only person on the entire island, along with my dog. we slept in a hammock in the woods by the sea, and everyone else joined me in the morning.

that second night, we hiked the entire island, and found we were still the only ones there at all. not unusual because of the weather.

well on the second morning, I got up and saw raccoons had gotten into Little Bird's dog food and all of my snacks. I assumed raccoons, anyway. I was bummed and confused because I kept all of the food in bear/raccoon proof containers that had never failed.

my friend, a fun but very no-nonsense outdoorsman, said "are you sure you didn't leave it unlatched last night?" I said, "I didn't get into it last night." He said, "Late last night. You did." I was confused, and he told me that he woke up to pee at 2 AM, at which time he saw me, sitting at the camp table, eating something. I said, "That wasn't me," and he said it was dark so he'd actually only seen a silhouette that he assumed was me because it couldn't have been our other friend, who was asleep beside him in his tent. It was also too dark to see that I was still in my hammock, with Little Bird.

At this point I became visibly alarmed because not only was I not awake and eating in the middle of the night, but my hammock was hung directly above the table, so anyone sitting there would be just a few inches below me while I slept.

What also bothered me was that I trained Little Bird specifically for solo backcountry work and that includes alerting to approaching wildlife so I'm not caught off-guard by bears in camp. I'm a feather-light sleeper as it is, but I sleep better knowing she'll hear something before I do. But she didn't alert to whatever got into our food, just inches below us.

We decided to let it go, because what was there to do or say? But that night I couldn't sleep until I moved my hammock to another spot. Sometimes I think about this and I'm just like well, what the hell
