[the-ephemeral-ethereal]

In a world where everything is given and nothing is explained, the fecundity of a value or of a metaphysic is a notion devoid of meaning.

from The Myth of Sisyphus by Albert Camus 

[tenth-sentence]

In the interest of improving the German "race", the government provided loans to biologically sound couples whose fecundity would likely be a credit to the Volk; the birth of a baby would reduce the loan indebted by twenty-five percent.

mtmte twitch. Discuss.

SO so so so so so

I feel like she's created on the Lost Light, ~somehow~, while Megatron is on board. Was it an accident, was it on purpose, if the latter then why? But I feel like the part where Twitch emotionally (and perhaps literally) attaches to co-captain Megatron is completely unexpected and an accident

Especially because compared to earthspark Megatron, who's had years to attempt to chill in the whole trying to be a good guy thing, mtmte Megatron is this interesting mix of sharp edges and edges worn down with time and defeat. He's still pretty mean. So most mecha would say dumping a child into his lap is a horrible idea, most mecha would say that kid won't last a week, most mecha would say Megatron would be a horrible parent.

We know this blog, and we know their dynamic in Earthspark.

Most mecha, in this case, are wrong ^w^

Because that girl, mtmte Twitch?

That's his goddamn child now, and everything should know better than to mess with her, lest the big silver bastard materializes next to her

how much would you bet that Crowley has some bizarre but passionate opinions about what does/should happen to stars after they die. like he insists they’re too good for heaven but simultaneously thinks it’s deeply unfair that they don’t go

[omg-snakes]

Sorry if you've talked about this before, but what are you breeding for this year? I just got my first corn snake and I'm curious about their genetics

Hey friend!

I've mentioned some of the clutches that were laid this year but I haven't actually announced the pairings yet, nor the anticipated outcomes.

First off, let me say that I done proper goofed this year. My plan was to have 3-4 pairings with 1-2 backups, in case a pairing didn't pan out. But then I didn't see signs of breeding activity from most of those pairs, so I added a few more backups to ensure I had 3-5 clutches. Every time a pairing didn't result in observed breeding behavior, I'd swap them out for a different pair. Then ALL of the snakes I paired ended up fertile and laying, whether or not I saw them mating or even courting. Soooo... whoops.

Here's the list of pairs for 2023 and anticipated offspring:

YR23: Yutu x Ringwood - Lavender, Hypo, and Peach combos

HC23: Hatshepsut x Carl - testing for red enhancing genes and any hets

KJA23: Kitty Junior x Aurelian - Lavender and Peach combos

LA23: Lumi x Apollo II - Ice, Hypo combos

MA23: Mayonnaise x Aurelian - Charcoal and Peach combos

BDJB23: Best Donut x James Baxter - Palmetto

BC23: Brian x Chammers - Amel, testing for hets

PE23: Pepper x Ermengarde - Red Factor, Motley/Stripe, and Anery combos

MV23: Moth x Valentine - Red Factor Strawberry Anery

PCR23: Partycake x Ringwood - Hypo Lavender and Peach combos

SG23: Sinestro x Griswold - Diffused, testing for hets

RF23: Rosepink x Frank - Red Factor, Peach, Amel, and Hypoberry combos

PSD23: Pumpkin Spice x Dextro - Diffused, testing for hets

SM23: Snikki x Meteorite - Tessera, Hypo combos

PR23: Peekaboo x Ringwood - Peach, testing for hets

Fortunately I have the space and financial resources for a big year so I'm not stretching myself too-too thin, but it's definitely not what I had intended and I'm a little worried about selling babies in a recession economy. My overall focus is towards Red Factor and Peach in combination with various melanin-reducing traits, and a better understanding of how the Peach gene works with other genes. This is a deciding year and I'll probably be rehoming a good number of my current breeders this fall or next spring depending on outcomes.

I'm not counting my snakes before they hatch, so I guess I'll channel Neil Gaiman and just tell myself to "wait and see!"

Your trademark is basically looking the audience dead in the eye and saying, “This one goes out to the monsters and their fuckers. By god I’m gonna make it happen for them!” And also reveling in cultural miscommunications. And also “now I’m gonna add an ounce of worldbuilding . . .” *spills entire bottle*

Ahaha! Yes. I will live and die by my loyalty to monsterfuckery <3

...and listen, listen. It's not my fault the worldbuilding bottle is so so slippery and it falls and spills everywhere. Not My Fault. I am as much or more a victim here as anyone else. I'm the one who has to write the damn nonsense.

hey so when helenus calls anchises felix nati pietate. i'm gonna need to write a whole 8-10 page article breaking down my feelings on that one.

I somehow managed to find an even more ridiculous statue-card combo and now my entire hand is just skinks and ourobros

"But as for the cannibalism, we do live off each other, from mother’s milk to blood transfusions and organ transplants to the way we are all enclosed in a world that is the result of human labor, human making, of clothes, of houses, of food, of systems. Maybe what I’m interested is the ways we consume each other that are gifts rather than thefts, that don’t involve destruction of the body or soul . . ."
