Min for short. "They" is a perfectly functional singular third person pronoun, and has been since the days of Chaucer. Do not repost my works to other websites.

The archival tags may not make sense to other people.

I've been thinking of the "Can Granny Weatherwax beat Bugs Bunny" question and this is my full take for Discworld characters:
Vimes - Cares too much, too easy to piss off. Has the innate chase instinct that makes characters run into walls with realistic tunnels painted on them. Might get to arrest Bugs Bunny but the beast will just slip out of the handcuffs to help him lock them, then walk out of the jail cell to have a union mandated coffee break.
Ridcully - Classic hunting season scenario, but has enough charisma to probably still get a few good shots off before the inevitable.
Rest of the wizards - No survivors, only Bugs.
Carrot - The intense near-magical narrative aura of well meaning innocence should make him immune, Bugs will likely be forced to be the villain of the episode.
Lord Vetinari - Flattened by a comically large anvil in the first few minutes of the episode, unclear if it was all a part of his long term strategy or not.
Moist - Has the 'lovable trickster getting away with it' energy, but nowhere near Bugs level. Already fell for the "old lady who swallowed a fly" scenario with the stamp slugs once, won't fare any better here.
Death - Definitely one of those "character is trying to avoid death" episodes, would go back and forth. Might actually get to end Bugs but his spirit will reappear in Death's domain and ruin his garden.
Nanny Ogg - The ultimate in anti-Bugs technology, a gleefully annoying old lady who doesn't give a fuck and definitely won't be the first to instigate the plot bearing conflict. This is a full sweep, he's the episode antagonist.
Granny Weatherwax - Too win-motivated to not lose. Would have to break the story to have any chance. Might do it.
Magrat - Will have sappy ideas about helping the poor animal which honestly has the 50:50 chance of either getting slapsticked or Bugs ending in a ye olde stroller&pacifier gag.
Colon&Nobby - Designed in a lab to be totaled by Bugs Bunny.
Tiffany Aching - A child that also has a large pan that is the perfect thing to hit someone over the head with and make a BOIOIOINGGG sound, so great odds.

Tim only referring to Danny temple as “my partner Danny” which leads Jack to believe that he’s got a girlfriend called Dani, in a similar way to when Alfred thought Ariana was a guy called Adrian in the knightfall novelization
set during Brentwood so Jack still has his money, the drakes get invited to a a classic fanfiction gotham gala, Tim gets a plus one and Jack is very insistent that Tim brings his partner along
Dana has been critiquing Jack for not spending time with his son and for sending him into Brentwood in the first place, saying he doesn’t listen, and now Jack has to pretend to both her, Tim, Tim’s boyfriend and all the 00’s era rich gala guests that he did, in fact, know Tim had a boyfriend
it does not help that jacks sorta parental nemesis Bruce Wayne, also present at the gala, clearly already knew (thankfully he and Tim seem to not get along right now so small wins for him)

Isn’t it kind of harsh to not give Deadpool residency on Krakoa at this point?
Yes but also isn't not being allowed on Krakoa kind of dodging a bullet at this point. Like yeah you can go "how come you let Cassandra Nova and Mister Sinister in but not me" but if that argument works what do you get? To be on an island with Cassandra Nova and Mister Sinister? Just own it. Make a "BANNED FROM KRAKOA FOR BEING TOO ANNOYING" t-shirt.

I just read Batgirl #7 and. Ho. ly. Shit.

I’ve worn a hairstyle similar to this.


I have a relative who used to live in a monastery that looked a lot like this.


I recognize the form of those buildings and those prayer flags. I’ve lit incense at a stupa like that.

I know those instruments. I remember such a festival. I know which part of Tibet that woman with her back turned is from (the same as me!)

I’ve done this dance.

“Akhu.” Goodness gracious that’s an explicitly Tibetan word. She’s calling him uncle.
I don’t think ya’ll understand what a big deal this is for me. I’m freaking out. The details aren’t all exact but the intention is clear. DC has just given Lady Shiva a Tibetan cultural background.
For all that media loves to use the Himalayas as an exotic setting for big cool action, it’s so rare that I get to see the people who actually live there acknowledged! Like it’s always a lone mystic or an army of faceless ninjas.
I am vibrating(!!)
Now, I’ve gotta hedge that I’m not really ecstatic about this whole ‘evil asian women redeeming themselves through their (almost always wasian) children’ trend that’s going on, or this particular dynamic in Lady Shiva’s backstory:

but I can’t help but appreciate the clear effort Brombal and Goodhart have put into their work here.
Goodness gracious(!)

vulcan horror movies would be an exercise in emotional regulation against fear, targeted directly at vulcans' deepest insecurities. movies titled "IT IS ILLOGICAL TO QUIVER AT THIS SEQUENCE OF EVENTS" which, if one of its hundred-and-six jumpscares gets you, you'll never live it down. humans find them annoyingly scary, like a friend who won't stop trying to "get" you.
you'd think that klingon horror movies are gorefests, but it's actually quite the opposite: gore is honorable, and nothing is scarier than dishonor. they often show a person whose life falls apart despite their own valiance and virtues: like an earth tragedy but with someone who clearly doesn't deserve it. at the end, there's often an operatic number where the protagonist exclaims that there's nothing they could have done to prevent their abysmal fate.
ferengi horror movies are documentaries about stock market crashes

Today I'm thinking about one of my favorite examples of "Jägers being sottle", which is this:
Hero.
And probably Rakethorne thinks it's a compliment, unless he knows the Jägers very well indeed, but Agatha should hear it as the warning that it is.
And indeed she does! Immediately this conversation is over. Oggie called him out.
Hero. Like Othar - with those same swinging rescues - is a hero.
Like Bill and Barry - who, despite everything else they did, failed to love their monsters, abandoned Mechanicsburg, and rejected the love and loyalty of the Jägermonsters - were heroes.
Hero.
Oggie might as well set Rakethorne up on fins and call him a rocket, because that was a very scheduled burn.
I love it.

ppl misunderstand me when I say "I want more [thing] in stories". I don't mean "I'm going to love every single one" I mean "I'm very picky and I want more of it in circulation so I can actually choose from a wealth of them and be discerning". I see ppl being like "you say you want more of [this thing] but you don't like [example of it]" YEAH CUZ I'M PICKY!!!!!!!! I have opinions and standards????? not all of them are gonna be the same I wanna be able to look at 100 of them and go "I want these 20" not "I only have 3 to choose from and I don't like any of them" you feel me??????
