Are you ever typing something that your phone autocapitalizes and you go back and re-type it just to force uncapitalize it. Like no sorry mcdonalds doesn’t deserve that level of respect from me

Anything that has the scent of cephalopod ink? I’m thinking like something somewhat briny and squid-like, but emphasis on the ink. Ty!

zoologist has it for you. your mileage may vary on just how heavy the ink note is though

dnd paladin character concept: a knight raised alongside a magic user, who loves his friend, considers them family — but the magic user through a twist of fate ascends to godhood, vanishing from normal human life. so the knight swears fealty to the fledgling god so he can have some connection to them even still & the god who loves him dearly in return blesses him with gifts and divine powers as a way to reach back toward him, back toward earth. this paladin’s vows are easy to keep, like second nature… and prayer is both automatic and personal

Whilst entirely useless as a Wikipedia article, this version of the one on If on a winter's night a traveler remains one of the funniest things I've read

Based on this post from the one who never misses @yesokayiknow about the Doctor's swinging relationship with uhhhh expressing their emotions and how reeeeeeally emotionally healthy they are

What is with the RTD2 obsession with motherhood? First there's Donna literally being saved through halfing the metacrisis with her daughter. Then there's Carla being spiritually saved through adopting Ruby because she's miserable in the timeline where she didn't have her. And there's Ruby being immune to the god of death because... of her normal human mum? Then there's that wish god baby who got dumped with Carla and whatever the fuck was up with Poppy and Belinda's entire character being reduced to motherhood.

There seems to be a running theme of motherhood, especially to daughters being someone's salvation, someone's reason and purpose. There's no questioning of "do I want this child?" It's just assumed they do. Of course Ruby's bio mum wanted her, she was just a scared teenager but now she's happy to have her in her life. Of course all Carla needed was to adopt a kid for real rather than just fostering. Of course Carla's happy to adopt another child as an older woman without even being asked before the paperwork is signed off. Of course Belinda not only wants a daughter that was forced onto her by a heteropatriarchal dystopia world, but she immediately becomes her entire purpose. And of course none of these mothers, bar Donna, have any men in their support network actually shown helping them raise their child. I guess Belinda has a dad and her mum and dad come over sometimes, but it's probably her mum doing the work given everything else we've seen. It's just women looking after children. Am I tripping or is this weird?
