"he said this" "she said that" ok and??? The universe said I love you?? And the universe said you have played the game well?? And the universe said everything you need is within you??? And the universe said you are stronger than you know??? And the universe said you are the daylight?? And the universe said you are the night?? And the universe said the darkness you fight is within you??? And the universe said the light you seek is within you??? And the universe said you are not alone???? And the universe said you are not separate from every other thing?? And the universe said you are the universe tasting itself, talking to itself, reading its own code???? And the universe said I love you because you are love?????????????

The funny thing to me about those "the combat drugs we give to the mech pilots make you grow boobs" hornyposts is that this legitimately is a known side effect of a wide range of drugs and medications. Just about any non-trivial chemical imbalance can potentially make you grow boobs. Breast growth is a known symptom of alcoholism. Some male bodybuilders experience female-typical breast development as a side effect of steroid use. Even kidney problems can induce breast growth. The human body is evidently just itching to grow boobs!

God I love “We’re enemies, but we’ve been enemies for a long time, which is sort of like being friends.” Great trope.

Random linguistic worldbuilding: A language with six sets of pronouns, which are set by one's current state of existence. There's a separate pronoun for people who are alive, people who are dead, and potential future people who are yet to be born, and the ambiguous ones of "may or may not be alive or aleady dead", "may or may not have even been born yet", and the ultimate general/ambiguous all-covering one that covers all ambiguous states.

The culture has a specific defined term for that tragic span of time when a widow keeps accidentally referring to their spouse with living pronouns. New parents-to-be dropping the happy surprise news of a pregnancy by referring to their future child with the "is yet to be born" pronoun instead of a more ambiguous one and waiting for the "wait what did you just say?" reactions.

Someone jokingly referring to themselves with the dead person pronouns just to highlight how horrible their current hangover is. A notorious aspiring ladies' man who keeps trying to pursue women in their 20s despite of approaching middle age fails to notice the insult when someone asks him when he's planning to get married, and uses the pronoun that implies that his ideal future bride may not even be born yet.

A mother whose young adult child just moved away from home for the first time, who continues to dramatically refer to their child with "may or may not be already dead" until the aforementioned child replies to her on facebook like "ma stop telling people I'm dead" and having her respond with "well how could I possibly know that when you don't even write to us? >:,C"

The internet is such a beautiful haunted echoey warehouse

[averwonders]

where is the world where my friend never thinks of dying and just watches the rain from her window that has jade green curtains and there is a radio that only plays static and her slippers are under the bed and a half eaten plum has made her fingers and table and homework atop that very sticky and everything smells citrusy and clock on the nightstand glows and say 'you're so needed, nothing's worth it without you, stay' on repeat like thunder.
