People disliking when people use the term "OC" instead of just saying "character" is one of the weirdest things and pickiest things I've seen online I ain't gonna lie.

OC is just a shortened way to say "Original Character" or "character".

IT IS LITERALLY JUST LIKE SAY WTF OR LMAO INSTEAD OF TYPING OUT "What the fuck" or "Laughing my ass off".

It is also well known enough that if someone says OC then a ton of people know "Oh this is a completely original being this person has created that probably has their own lore and everything"

😭 it's such a weird thing to dislike bc it's just so harmless man. Let people use what terms they feel most comfortable with for the little fellas they crafted.

Jack and Nana referring to each other as "boyfriend" and "girlfriend" is cute but them using the term "Other half" is even cuter and more fitting for them, their personalities, and their bond with each other.

Long shot, but does anyone have a good “understanding electricity for complete idiots who like not being electrocuted”? I’d like to understand solar power setups better, but this seems to involve understanding things like volts and ohms and resistance and other concepts that have historically made my eyes glaze over.

Free stuff is nice but I do have a small budget if you have a particularly excellent paid resource to recommend.

Please reblog for eventual access to Electrician Tumblr. Thank you! 🙏

Hot take:

If Escher had been given Astarion levels of backstory, players would have Strahd's head on a pike in less than 2 sessions

This linked to my lackadaisy oc? Sona? Whiskers this brings more details about his character that I didn't decide yet heh

In the lively streets of 1905, Whiskers, a towering serval, found joy in crafting elegant tuxedos and sharing life's joys with his beloved fiancée. But tragedy struck when she was taken from him, leaving him fearful of love's touch, fearing he'd only bring pain. Now, haunted by his past, he walks alone, his heart closed off from the world, finding solace only in the shadows as an assassin for the powerful elite.

The very first iteration of Mickey Mouse entering public domain the year right after Disney's sloppy and weak af 100 year anniversary is poetic as hell.

hey which boxers would have a hard time playing horror games/watching horror movies cause they either have a low tolerance for horror or hate being scared

I try to be transparent about my webcomics when I can when it comes to update stuff AND Glitter and Guilt is planned to come back next month with my schedule of "I update when I update" while Beanstalked is planned to return in June or July due to some extra work I am doing in it.

Just realized Jack and Nana's default faces respectively are :3 and :<

Hey y’all, if you’re a jewelry fan, the Native Seed Search website has dropped a jewelry update to help support their work: A Native American seed bank focused on the indigenous food of the American Southwest. Most of the jewelry for sale is silver and turquoise: a traditional art of the Diné (Navajo).

A selection of things for sale at the time of this post:

This sick gecko pin

These gorgeous dangle earrings

And these delicate feather earrings

Plus much more! I know none of us on this site have any money, but if you find any down the back of the couch, this is a great cause and some gorgeous wearable art.

(If you need international shipping, I would inquire with them directly, since I think their assumption is that most sales would be domestic.)

Anyone have any good horror fiction podcast recs?

I currently listen to The Magnus Archives/The Magnus Protocol, Alice Isn't Dead & Other Nightvale Presents productions, SCP Foundation, Re: Dracula.

I wasn't a fan of Old Gods of Appalachia. The stories were good! It was something about the pacing, I think.

In terms of non-horror fiction, I liked Wolf 359, Wooden Overcoats, and Steal the Stars.
