Hi, I was wondering if you could make a moodboard with plesiosaurs with a gender neutral and middle space lean with greens and blues?

Sure!!

I'm remembering how I did the "The Greatest Papyrus of 2023" bracket thing

And now I'm considering a "Sans Fight Night" bracket where they all fight each other and duke it out with the end goal of seeing who the (perceived) strongest Sans is

Just found out that The Japan Foundation has an awesome free library accessible to folks in the US, works basically the same way the Queer Liberation Library does except it's all, like, books about Japanese culture and history, manga, fiction, language learning books, and more, in both English and Japanese!

There's even a whole section of LGBTQIA+ stuff, including manga, language stuff, books, audiobooks...

Anyway, I filled out the sign-up form over the weekend and got my log-in info last night and I AM EXCITE and wanted to share.

Another free-to-folks-in-the-US library with lots of awesome books!!

Shout out to enigmalea on Mastodon, for making the post that let me learn this exists!

What did you think of Nolan,Bailey and their storyline this episode ? And the episode of their wedding ?

Let me preface this by saying that if you are a fan of Bailey & Nolan, you might not want to read my answer. As always, this is only personal. I mean no disrespect to anyone who loves this pairing.

I have reached a point where I simply couldn't care less about these two. I can't even say I hate them or anything. I just… don't care. And that's pretty much how I felt about their wedding storyline - from the proposal to the honeymoon. On the bright side, I did like her dress and her vows. That's it. Oh and the bachelor/bachelorette parties… But they weren't even the focus : it was more about Tim and Lucy than Bailey and Nolan.

If anything, that whole wedding storyline encapsulates everything that bother me with this pairing. It was completely over the top, too cliché. Instead of focusing on one or two problems so they could be properly developed, it almost felt like the writers used all the tropes they could think of for drama's sake. Now, it wouldn't be so bad if it were the first or second time. But these two, somehow, always find themselves in these unbelievable situations… to the point that it becomes more boring than entertaining since it never leads to anything substantial. I know it's a show and I expect some drama but I need some balance too. If the writers can't be bothered to give them some depth, why should I care? I mean, awesome, they can fight (and I love me some good old Battle Couple Trope). But what about the character development?

Like the proposal. It happened right after a huge traumatic moment for both Nolan and Bailey. And all we got was John crying for a total of 5 seconds. Show me the struggle and the guilt he had to feel for not pulling the trigger and thinking he had lost the love of his life. I'm not saying that he was right or wrong. But I need to see him dealing with the consequence of that decision. And what about Bailey? How did she feel about being targeted, about dying and about John's choice? We don't know. And if that wasn't bad enough, her death was treated as a running joke one episode later. Compare this to Tim's feeling of guilt for pushing Lucy to go on that date… to Lucy's feeling of guilt for Chris being targeted by Rosalind… to Chris' struggle with his trauma. We got none of that for John and Bailey and they're supposed to be the main couple.

And that's exactly the same issue with the wedding and honeymoon. So many things went wrong but that was it. Well, to be fair, maybe we'll see Bailey and Nolan struggle with almost getting killed (again) in the next episodes… But I'm not holding my breath. Their honeymoon was the worst for me : the lack of passion was absolutely jarring… It's a freaking honeymoon! Why would they spend so much time focused on their cameras and weird neighbours?! Are they this bored of each other? (the way it was filmed didn't help at all).

hi i have an actual question that i don't know where to ask anywhere else So i know that water bottles have an expiration date, not or the actual water itself, but rather the plastic that's containing it. but if i were to use the expired water bottle like a flask, and just change out the water every day, would that still be dangerous? would the bottle have enough time to leak in harmful stuff into the water? i'm asking this because i bought a water bottle in Croatia (the specific brand is called "Jana" and it's the 0.5 L one) like a year ago, and i really like the shape and feel of it, i've used it almost every day since, so i don't want to just throw it out :/ I could in theory buy another one off the internet, and i guess that woud solve the problem, but i don't really want to have to do that especially because i'm not actually gonna be drinking the water that's in it, since i simply dislike the taste

anyways, the main question is, will i suffer if i keep re-using an expired plastic bottle?

An artfight attack on @kogo-dogo of their fic "The Scourge of Vvardenfell" featuring Karsaga, a Khajiit with the worst luck. He's not a hero, he's a criminal, and he's not your damn lackey - if he can help it.

"Me: No fear

My brain: They could change everything and no one could stop them. They could say that Spock and Chapel used Leila and Korby as rebounds. That they had an on-off relationship during the whole five year mission and in TOS we only saw the bad moments. That he went to Gol because of her. They could even deny beta canon. They could say he had a telepathic link with her and she was the consciousness reaching out to him during the V'ger crisis. That "this simple feeling" is about her and Spock was only telling his best friend who just happened to be in front of him at the time. They could introduce t'hy'la and say Chapel is Spock's, not Kirk. That they got together for good after TMP until she died. Everything sacred to us is theirs to take and twist as they like.

Me: A lot of fears"

I'd like to take a moment for those who are amongst their family members for the holidays, who are in a "fun" party right now, who are hanging out with friends and feel like they are supposed to have a good time, and yet they can't enjoy it

Here's to those who wish to be in the moment right now, yet their anxieties, mental and/or physical illnesses prevent them from doing so

Here's to those who wish to be in the moment right now, yet they are swamped with a bunch of work, and they can't take their mind off it

Here's to those who wish to be in the moment right now, yet they don't feel safe with the people surrounding them and would rather be in the moment somewhere else

The holidays should be a happy month for everyone, but not everyone can muster up the joy for it. I see you, I hear you, and I promise you that you're not the only person who feels this way. I know that we may be two strangers on the internet, but I wholeheartedly wish the best for you. Because you do deserve better.

And I believe in you. We can get through the holidays together. We can and we will.
