it's insane how normalized 3d printing is i don't think people born post 2005 can comprehend how fantastical "appearing things with machines" was as an idea. kind of like cryogenics or VR indistinguishable from being somewhere. like i remember learning about 3d printing about 10 years ago and feeling like it was a little bit sci fi teletransportation magic like it was truly a mind=blown technological moment and now it's just like. do you want to buy this figurine of dawyne the rock johnson as pikachu on etsy

Doddering old man who enjoys his fiddly little nature hobbies but is secretly a huge sex pervert

An unflappable geriatric queen who used to perform Shakespeare

The noble title land and traditions that have been passed down our family line for countless generations

A dull and cowardly large breed dog who loves people

A sharp and spunky small breed dog with a weird name that is “sharp as a whip” and knows bad news when he sees it

An eccentric and dying old aristocrat with a huge estate who just had a tumultuous family dinner with his twelve insufferable potential heirs and the one likeable black sheep who is about to have no siblings at all

A frumpy and awkward woman with glasses who also has a stalker shrine in her attic

A cat that hates everybody

Homeless tramp with a wagon

Rich misogynistic prick who likes horses

love love love when a particularly manipulative character is lying off their ass about something and then throws in one hauntingly genuine line

re: finding platonic explanations for things you cannot even imagine, I'd like to see an aromantic jealousy plot for a change. Character A is seethingly jealous of Character B's love interest but it's not because they're romantically interested in B, it's because they're aro and B is the most important person in their life and this is an unwelcome reminder that they will always come second to a traditional romantic partner in society's eyes and possibly B's as well.

And honestly you don't even need a powerful interpersonal connection to activate Hater Mode. I wasn't that close to any of my middle school classmates and I certainly wasn't interested in them romantically, but I was still so sick of hearing about the boy band guys they had crushes on that I fantasized about Justin Bieber dying in a plane crash. Not my most hinged of moments but idk what to tell you, middle school was a bad time

"marriage is the ONLY way to get these protections" "there is NO WAY to hack a legal arrangement to cover everything that marriage grants" "kiddos you don't remember what it was like before we could get married, we finally got rights because we could get married" Okay But You Recognize Why That's Bad, Right. Like that is really, really bad that you have to enter a specific type of relationship to get legal rights. That is A Problem. You recognize that that is Not A Good Thing, Right
