if alphas in the omegaverse knew that we referred to it as the "omegaverse" and not the "alphaverse," they'd throw a fit

Sir Terry Pratchett is a master of the written word but he ain’t shit for the way he trained me to accept dumb naming conventions because i got three missed calls on my phone from Scam Likely and I spent like half a day wondering who I knew named Scam.

Heya,

considering the social media landscape keeps changing (and has changed drastically since last time we were like 'do we jump ship')

I've made a bluesky handle for blog and fan stuff in case things go down for realsies this time:

in top ten decisions by the writers of War of the Rohirrim: going “okay, we can’t include a hobbit because canonically no one outside the northwest really knew those weird little guys existed before the events of Lord of the Rings…but we need to get that energy, so we WILL have a young man who is hobbit-shaped, both literally and narratively.”

Hera and the Wedding Dress

Just saw a post saying there was no point in Hera wearing that wedding dress when she confronted Wulf.

There was every point.

A major part of Wulf's motive was vengeance for not only his father's death, but Hera's "arrogance" in rejecting him. His father's death and Hera's rejection were intertwined in his head, the anger for one fuelled the anger for the other.

Wulf had no reason to duel Hera, except for vengeance.

Hera needed to make Wulf make a bad decision, and to do that she needed to push all his triggers. She needed to get his anger levels rocketing up to one hundred.

And how was she going to do that?

By riding up to him in a fucking wedding dress.

The minute he saw her in that dress, he was spitting vinegar.

Hera knew Wulf's motivations, knew his flaws, and knew the best way of making him make a bad decision, and she acted on that.

That dress was psychological war play.

Do people know about the long term sponsorship MBMBAM used to have with Extreme Restraints (like several months of weekly ads) where they’d have to talk about various sex toys and once had to talk about them in a completely PG-13 way for candlenights. Do PEOPLE NOT KNOW that Extreme Restraints sent the McElboys an anonymous list of all the weird shit people bought with their coupon code.

No one talks about the long period of time when the McElboys were sponsored by a sex toy/bdsm online store and put their hearts and souls into those ads and I’m afraid it’s because people don’t know about it

YOU BOOP MIETTE?

[lethesomething]

I’ve started playing dnd again and the campaign I’m in has the pitch that we all must be characters from written works. The plot is we got thrown out of our own stories and must find our way back.

I am Hamlet, a warlock who made a pact with his Dad’s ghost (it’s absolutely his Dad’s ghost, he wasn’t tricked at all, ignore the fiend patron type) to get revenge on his Uncle. But this post isn’t about him.

Because our cleric, the one entrusted with keeping the party full of heals, the only person with healing magic, is House MD.

“Wait Iz!” You cry. “House MD is a television show, not written fiction.” You’d be correct. Which is why our cleric House is not from the television show.

He’s from a fan fiction.

It’s as funny as it sounds.
