ppl who are defending this controversial decision are saying they have the right to profit off their content as if they weren’t doing so before! they weren’t doing charity and it’s never about the community or whatever. where does that tesla come from and ofc those 200 dollars jackets if you will (lol)? not like they were driven by pure enthusiasm magic of friendship and concern for your mental health all this time but finally snapped and decided to get at least six bucks out of it. truth is the boys got greedy and it cost them their entire career

How would aliens deal with musical instruments—Western classical or otherwise? For example - you think if they saw a violin and then a cello, they’d say “oh that’s just a bigger violin” and then the respective players would get (rightfully) heated? Or, what about the guzheng or the didgeridoo?
I think that they would most likely understand that sound comes from those instruments but yes, they would probably piss off the respective players. Yes I think that they would refer to a viola as a tiny violin while a cello would be a bigger one because tbh, it looks like a violin except the size. The didgeridoo is one of my favourite weird instruments and aliens would be very confused how it makes different sounds. The guzheng is a guitar or violin except on the side so yes aliens would refer to this as a guitar-violin-piano. This pisses all the players off and they keep correcting them. The aliens get there in the end but it takes a very long time because the instruments we have might not be the same as on thier planet.
Another route is that some aliens don't have music and are fascinated by the instruments which means that these aliens would make sure to get everything correct so that their favourite humans who play instruments can still play and not be mad. I think that these aliens would then introduce it to their planet and then the music culture would evolve from earth's culture.
Obviously, I cannot say for sure what aliens would think but in summary, they definitely confuse instruments or just call some a mini/tiny or big/huge version of whatever the instrument it looks like.
Sorry this is so short! I am tired and have no energy and I should probably go to sleep.

hey do you ever think about that one scene in season 4 where at some point yaku goes, "now's not the time to think back fondly of your kouhai," to which kuroo replies, "do you even know what feelings are?" and laugh because for all his tough talk if anyone knows anything about thinking fondly of a kouhai that's yaku? i do. and look, makes sense because he and noya have a similar kind of mindset and drive so they stay focused in the moment. but then when they finally meet on opposite sides of the court first thing they do is compliment each other, and genuinely i'm here imagining kuroo noticing the first name basis and thinking, excuse me. am i hearing things in my old age? is this fondness i am witnessing? i didn't even know yakkun was capable of it! — and you can bet anything you want he won't forget to mention it in his speech at their wedding. just fyi.

What do you think about Lady Shiva agreeing to bear David Cain a child because of the fact that he spared her life/showed her true potential after murdering her sister? Would you rework this narrative to account for Cassandra's conception?
I find it utterly wretched. Just disgusting, half-baked shit that nobody should ever bother bringing up again. Not just because it effectively turns Shiva into a rape victim (remember, David's deal was "Bear my child or bullet to the head") but also because it saddled her with a shitton of cheap melodrama while also removing a bunch of her own agency.
I do have a pretty long, thick idea for how to possibly rework that to remove the non-con elements, give Shiva more agency and also add a couple wrinkles to her relationship with Cass, but it'd pretty much require restarting her whole story from scratch. And these days? I personally think it'd be better for everyone to focus more on Shiva's present and come up with cool stuff for her future rather than keep going back to a past that even when it was revealed, everyone rightfully ignored.

Oh my god
So 6 weeks or so ago BaldBastard tells us to get rid of the black supply tote, we're getting clear cube ones. Whatever.
The cubes are working surprisingly well, the sign holders fit perfectly in them, keeping it neat and tidy. Everyday supplies like tape, masks, and trash bags are in one, lesser used ones in another. Great.
Motherfucker shows up today and goes "you guys need a black tote. Like put the cubes in there. I don't know who told you to use those but you need the black tote."
BITCH IT WAS YOU!!! YOU FUCKING TOOK OUR TOTE AWAY! YOU FUCKING FORCED THE CUBES ON US!!! YOU!!
Then he was bitching ab how we need to liquidate more and it's like uh huh that's gonna work great until the liquidator tells us to stop sending him shit unless it specifically is in liquidation status bc they dont have the fucking money. You know, like what happened LAST YEAR.
AND he and FGM were like "you guys have a lot in the steel..." and RC and I went "no we dont! It's all basics! Trust me! Go look yourself!!!" And then they were like well pull from boxes then. Okay bitch so we're gonna have a full table of one item bc theres nothing fucking new.
I swear to god you could put an actual chicken in charge as our store manager and there would be no difference. No, it might actually IMPROVE.

Drop one random piece of lore about your fav ocs right now!!!1!111!!1!!!1!1
and!
Do you make moodboards/song playlists for your ocs?
HRMM random lore about Gabe, he was raised by his granddad Howard! He was a veteran and a classically tough sort of guy, and was the person to teach Gabe about survival, self-defense, weaponry, etc etc! He also homeschooled Gabe.
He’s loosely based off my grandpas, so despite his gruffness, he was very caring and committed in raising Gabe (privately, he worked on saving money for Gabe to get top surgery, which Gabe was able to do after Howard passed away). By all accounts, Gabe considered Howard to be the only person he loved and found important in his life, which is why many of his signature items/accessories are his grandad’s!
To your second question(s), YES! I’ve made like onnnee moodboard which was Gabe’s, I’ve been wanting to make more but haven’t gotten around to it. I DO however have MMMAAAASSIVE Pinterest boards for SEVERAL characters. And yes, I do have some playlists!!! I have one general playlist for the overall story, one for the more Scooter-and-Robbie-centric songs, and one for Tino+Winona+Ronan, whose group I still do not have a name for lol. I expect I’ll be making more playlists, too.

Christ I wish I had been given a better heads-up abt what iud insertion entailed. If you have bad cramps on periods, know that they like. Grab Your Cervix which, for me, Induced the worst cramps of my entire whole life even on painkillers and weed gummy, and continued for a day
