Hey guys so I'm at a sleepover and I'm an early bird so I photoshopped Dolly Parton holding the Holy Moonlight Sword to pass some time

I love you so much I hope we get reborn as housecats who sleep together like puzzle pieces

i have to admit that i am the sort of autistic person who walks onto the road. without looking. i have almost been hit by vehicles dozens upon dozens of times. some pretty close calls! ironically having to use crutches made me a bit safer because I'm more visible and have to stop and pause and walk slower.

so pretty much all my friends and loved ones, like anyone who regularly went out with me had the "grab yahya" instinct next to roads (as i like to call it). them grabbing me saved my ass lots of times. but sometimes i don't like being grabbed! it annoys me. i know they can't read my intentions in advance and it's for my safety and has genuinely saved me but yknow. it's okay if things that are done objectively to help you still annoy you, as a disabled person. we're not robots, we can't automatically make ourselves feel only what is appropriate for the circumstances. like it's best to develop some coping mechanisms or workarounds or communication procedure if possible. but either way it's okay to get annoyed. you're not mean or ungrateful for getting annoyed at help you need. you're just human

Can people from the United States stop making jokes about “WW3 😜”….there are people in Iran evacuating their neighborhoods, places they grew up, and all YOU are experiencing is watching the news and a few TikToks….

You are not at war, you will most likely never see war, and if your “dark humor” is coming at the expense of others then it is not dark humor, you’re just an asshole.

does it have to be human!?

“My favourite thing was a bunch of people made a giant sign that said “How am I going to be an octopus about this?” and held it up during Pompeii at all the right times and it distracted me enough to sing “octopus” instead by accident.”

You’re not allowed to do that. So, many, many years later they found a way to retcon it, as they say, but it was just… It’s interesting. The audience is in control of what sticks. James Bond’s scar? Nope. Doctor Who’s real name? No. Sherlock Holmes would never wear a deerstalker in the middle of town — yes, he would. Because we like him in that.

fictional character discourse would be more fun if we all internalized the fact that characters are narrative tools, not people. once we have that basic fact down, we can start talking about what story the author is trying to tell using these characters, whether they’re successful, whether the story itself is successful and by what means we are measuring success—which are all really fun and interesting things to discuss! but we simply cannot get to that point unless we first accept that fictional characters simply do not have thoughts, feelings, opinions, or any agency on their own. a fictional character has more in common with the fictional chair theyre sitting on than with a real person
