Do y'all think non-white androids would be more probable to be broken or abused?
Like, I know that female androids would be 100% more probable to be abused than male ones. But what about the races?
Like, even in 2024, in our world, there's still pretty bad systematic racism between humans. Do you think that would also happen in the DBH world?
What's the trope name for when someone finds out they're the Chosen One(tm) and is like "No, thank you" and goes and does something else
Refusal Of The Call is the actual trope name. Usually followed by the tropes of The Call Knows Where You Live and You Can’t Fight Fate.
The Call is Trying to Contact you about your Destiny's Extended Warranty.
I Blocked The Call's Number, and The Call Got A New Phone And Called Again
Please Help The Call is Stalking Me
I Told The Call To Take Me Off The Call List And Got Laughed At
Still mad at the wasted potential of pro-android humans being in the demonstration with the androids, or at least close to it, and throwing stuff at the cops.
Like, a bunch of Gen Z, Gen alpha, and Gen beta people who practically grew up with the androids being their trusted adult or best friend.
Like, a 17 yo guy throwing rocks at the cops yelling that they killed his Nana. An AX400 who took care of him.
A 26 yo woman crying that they won't take her best friend and that she deserves to be free.
A 31 yo man throwing balloons full of painting to the face of the soldiers.
A bunch of teenagers and young adults make a human wall against the cops, surrounding the barricade the androids made with the same fierce stance the older ones did in the 2020s in the protests against systematic racism.
Perkins talking to Markus, Markus says no to the truce. While he goes back and in the silence around you hear a guy screaming "Robo-Jesus told you to fuck off so FUCK OFF!" (Cue a balloon full of painting in Perkins' face)
Humanity has regressed back to the dark ages, almost all science and technology being forgotten. One day, an adventuring party discovers you, the last A.I. supercomputer.
Two headcanons that just go so well together
Markus having migranes and phantom pains* 🤝 Connor having recurring seizures**
* - caused by compatibility issues of replaced biocomponents of different models + literally being shot in the head
** - caused by Cyberlife/Amanda trying to hack back into him even if's just automated attempts of some self-learning algorithm

This is to good to get buried in the tags
Some part of me believes that authors are people who can see into other universes and are called to share them with others.
If there are infinite universes, then it stands to say that every single story written is someone's real life somewhere. Which is why some choices for stories feel more right than others, because you're tapping harder into a reality.
Anyway, writing is witchcraft pass it on.
On the topic of English people being shitheads towards Welsh people - This fucking dude today on AITA
Yeah pretty sure we’re all hoping for a divorce on this one lol
how did this fucker say it’s “not as bad as it sounds” and then somehow end up being even worse than it sounds by the fourth sentence
That’s what we call growth.
I think the part about “I still feel like I’m right even though I know I’m wrong” bit is a really important and easily overlooked part of growth. That almost always happens in cases like this: that you’re rationally convinced that something you’ve always taken for granted is actually an injustice, but your feelings are still the feelings that have been shaped by your life up to this point. That doesn’t make you a bad person, and it doesn’t mean you’re some kind of natural-born bigot or that you are incapable of improving. Keep sitting with those feelings, and with the realities that led you to be persuaded, and keep an open mind as you explore, and they will come into alignment over time.
If anyone has any cute fanfic prompts/requests, now is the time to ask! I'm in the mood for writing fluffy tcr stuff!
Meet-cute at an airport?
Did i watch apothecary diaries in one sitting, while dying from cold and went to bed at 7 am? Yes, yes i did. Did i also read entirety of the manga, hiding under a blanket instead of resting properly? Yes, yes i did that. Did i do that in the span of two days, back to back? Y e p. Am i about to blast through all the LNs bc hyperfixation is going strong? YOU BETTER BET I FUCKING AM.
At the gate for my flight home from visiting friends and there's a woman here with a service Shiba Inu. No pics because he has a Do Not Disturb vest and taking pics of strangers is illegal but I need to stress how ON DUTY this animal is. Ears up. Eyes doing Lazer scans of everything. Examining everyone who passes within 10ft like a security guard. Ass planted on her feet. I have never seen a dog with such intense chivalric guardian energy before. He has tiny eyebrows and they are FURROWED with concentration.
Man behind me having unhinged phone conversation. There is an internationally famous dairy in the area I was visiting and he was commissioned by the lady on the other end of the phone to collect specific cheeses from there. The lady is very high strung about the type and condition of the cheese.
The man does not know from cheese. The man "ain't never seen no cheese but orange before" and "I showed ya list to the cheese lady so if it's wrong it's her fault ok?"
I am 80% sure she sent him there for a really specific bleu cheese, 40% sure he does not have the very specific bleu cheese, and 100% sure he's done with her shit.
Our flight is delayed.
He does not have the cheeses in a cooler, just a regular backpack.
I need to emphasize that there is no cooler bag in the backpack. He has Jansport backpack that is jam-packed with cheeses. There is apparently $405 dollars worth of cheeses in that backpack, which I know because he has been trying to get the lady to venmo him the expense, which she has failed to do. It is unclear whether his relation to the lady is romantic, familial or what, but I'm leaning towards "what".
Two more people have joined us. One is a very elegant man with a perfect manicure in a tailored business suit, the other is a neon-haired person of indeterminate gender wearing a fox kirigumi. The Shiba Inu has been staring at the latter for three minutes now.
Uh oh.
Cheese man has been demanding payment because apparently he went like six hours out of his way and paid with his own money and between the cheese and price of gas, he is pretty sure he does not have enough money in his account for an Uber home.
The lady is FLABBERGASTED that he is demanding payment at all, as she was under the impression he was doing this for her out of the goodness of his heart.
He's not having it. He's insisting she told him she would pay him back- he would have gotten her maybe one cheese somewhere closer to his business in the area out of love, but he went out of his way because she agreed to pay him costs+ extra to cover it.
HE RECORDED THE CONVERSATION IN WHICH SHE PROMISED TO PAY FOR THE CHEESE, SHE'S THAT MUCH OF A FLAKE.
I am about to offer this man cash for some of these cheeses because our flight is now more delayed.
"YOU ALWAYS DO THIS! YOU ALWAYS DO THIS AND I FALL FOR IT EVERY TIME! NO! NO! FUCK YOU! IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA PAY ME, YOU DON'T GET FANCY CHEESE."
"OR ELSE WHAT?"
"I'm gonna-? THE BABY SHOWER? MONICA CAN'T EVEN HAVE THIS CHEESE SHE'S PREGNANT!"
"The cheese lady asked if it was for someone because the mushrooms or whatever in the cheese are dangerous for the baby or something?? You wanna poison Monica?"
"WHY WOULD I LIE ABOUT THAT?"
"YEAH OF COURSE I GOT THE CHEESE, THATS WHY I DON'T GOT MONEY FOR UBER!"
"YEAH, GO TELL! GO TELL MOMMA I STOPPED YOUR STUPID ASS FROM KILLING MONICA OR THE BABY! FUCK!"
*hangs up phone*
*head in hands, borderline hyperventilating*
The man in the three piece suit is in the chair next to him. He waits a moment, then reaches into his carryon and pulls out an entire bottle of wine with the TSA pre check sticker on it, and taps cheese guy on the shoulder.
"If your friend doesn't want it, would you be amenable to having it right now?"
Naturally, I have volunteered my box of wheat thins and offered to buy one of the harder cheeses which should be fine if it makes it home.
Meanwhile, Kirigumi has noticed that the Shiba Inu is staring at her and is correctly intimidated.
1. This is some fucking great Camembert. I have compensated cheese guy accordingly. So have like six other people. He's recouped like half his losses.
2. Cheese guy is crying a little about the cash and opening up about his problems. The cheese lady is his younger sister. Suit guy is being very generous with his Pinot Blanc. We are having a picnic/improv family therapy session.
3. This is apparently the latest in a long string of his sister asking for something and then flaking when he asks to be paid back. Started with paying him back only some of what he was owed, then claiming something she paid for him was of equal value when it was not, then recently telling him his memory is wrong and he said it was a gift or that he'd do it for free.
"Yeah, the specific thing of trying to convince you your memory is unreliable is called gaslighting and it's really fucked up." I say
"yeeeeah. The other stuff I forgave because she's never really had a good job so she can't pay me back all the time but at least she was making an effort y'know? But that was. That was over the line."
"If you haven't already, check on the rest of your family's finances. My brother started trying to gaslight everyone when he started stealing from our parents." Says Pinot Blanc.
4. Shiba Inu Lady has purchased a cheddar. Apparently, the dog's name is Donut, and he's her service dog because she's severely visually impaired.
"Oh, he's a guide dog?" Asks cheese guy.
"oh, no." She laughs. "He's too short, and the way my eyes are, it's easier for me to navigate with a cane. No, the problem I have is that some morally impaired people see the cane and think they can get away with stealing my bag or assaulting me because I wouldn't be able to give a description- which is wrong, but rather than deal with that I got Donut, and he helps me by howling at anyone who gets in my personal space and biting anyone who grabs me!"
"Uh." Says Kirigumi. "He's been staring at me do I need to back up or..?"
"Ohdear! No, no- He wasn't looking at you! He loves cheese but he knows he's not supposed to beg so he decided the way to deal with something he wants but can't have is to stare in the other direction."
"OKAY!" Says Kirigumi. "I'm wearing fox pajamas and thought like. He thought I was another dog or something."
"No, no- he doesn't care about dogs, and you get a warning before he goes for the calves. Very helpful, when I was living in Italy!"
"Oh what part? I have family in Tuscany." Says Pinot.
"Does he want a cheese? There is still so much cheese." Says cheese guy.
Plane may be arriving. I am paying for in flight WiFi to keep y'all updated.
1. Cheese guy has sold all but two or three cheeses that he an Pinot are going to eat on the flight.
2. I know they're planning to continue because Pinot talked to the gate agent so he and cheese guy can sit together and talk about family drama and cheese.
3. Pinot has been teaching him about different types of cheese and how to enjoy them.
4. Cheese guy apparently repairs computers and other technology devices for a living and is currently doing the software version of scraping barnacles and other crap off Pinot'macbook.
5. Pinot is now convinced that cheese guy is the smartest and most interesting man in the world.
Ok so the Wifi wasn't working on the plane (also like, nonstop turbulence) and also they got seated in a different row from me, but:
:)
Anyway, it's 2AM, I need to sleep, if you feel like supporting this kind of hard-hitting reporting, I have a Tip Jar!
I feel like the first class you played in DND tells a lot about you
Reblog and put in the tags what your first class was
The pronunciation and spelling of french will never be anything but laughable to me. The fuck do you mean you spell it "brie de meaux" but it's pronounced brii de möö. Who decied that this was fancy.
It's fascinating that people who speak *English* have a problem with weird spelling in other languages. English is chock-full of words like colonel, queue, through, sneaky, knead, liquefy, mortgage, receipt and indict that are dropping letters left and right when you pronounce them. Or how about Wednesday, playwright, acquiesce, minuscule or fuchsia? Not to mention the oddity of having the same combination of letters be pronounced completely different in different words. Though, tough, ghost or hiccough?
No ainahan mä voin vittuilla sulle suomeks mutta siitä ei tuu kumpikaan meistä hullua hurskaammaks.
I will never get over the fact that the french word for water is written "eau", but is pronounced o. Like none of those letters are supposed to make that sound? Wtf french? Why are you like this? (No, don't actually tell me. I don't want to know. I want to be mad.)
