Rain: starts
Some deep dark part of my brain that never forgot the first night vale episode: 👀🕐🚌🌧🌧🕐🕐🚌🌧
When I’m reincarnated, I want to come back as a bookstore cat.
Livin the life.
Here be my addition
That’s actually a thing? I thought my local bookstore was the only one living their best life tbh
This one guides me to any sections he’s feeling that day
the hunger

The cronch goblin
me at the craquer barrél when they bring my mac and cheese out
I honest to god need my headphones just as much as I need my glasses like. They're Necessary 1 is just more normalized than the other so ppl don't Get It
Nobody gives you shit for "I need a thing for making my sight better" but "I need a thing for making my hearing worse" is such a foreign concept 2 everyone who isn't also autistic it's Weird
"It's rude :( you look like you're ignoring people :(" if ur not sure if I can hear you or not......... get my attention before you start talking? It's literally so easy to accommodate my needs if you just fucking try lmao
Neurotypicals can rb but don't clown
blessed rescue
I got to marry my wife, and our pupper was our flower girl. 2.5 years ago this wasn’t possible, as it wasn’t legal in Australia. It rained our whole wedding day, but was so worth it in the end with our phenomenal photographer.
op this looks absolutely magical
I forgot homophobia was a thing and i spent about 5 seconds wondering why it was ever illegal to have a dog as a flower girl
america sucks and is a hellhole but i do appreciate … the loose mythology that has formed around how artificially weird everything outside of big cities is. where i think it’s safe to say most folktales worldwide tend to form around nature or at the very least older towns, in america the modern folktale is, from my very Californian observation, generally formed around things like 24 hour diners… beach boardwalks… giant metal sculptures of dinosaurs… static-y radio stations… government bases out in the desert.
am i saying other, more nature-centric folklore doesn’t exist or that this never happens in other places? of course not. am i saying that Welcome to Night Vale and Jordan Peele’s Us are the modern american fairy tales? that the setting of Hotel California, taken literally, is the Americana equivalent to the forests of medieval fairy tales? that claims of alien abduction is simply the modern, technologically reasoned form of being taken by the faeries ? fuck yeah my dudes and dudettes

Shadow is really sick and we need help
I know I haven’t been very active here as of late, but Linden and I are having a pet emergency. Shadow has been diagnosed with a kidney infection with likely underlying kidney disease. She stopped eating. Because she stopped eating, now she is likely developing fatty liver syndrome. I have been with her to the vet three times this week and I have to go again tomorrow morning to get a feeding tube put in her so we can get some food in her. As you can imagine, it is getting pretty expensive and Linden and I are running out of savings. We made a GoFundMe for Shadow’s medical bills. I’ll post the link below. If you could even spare a couple of dollars, I would be so grateful. Even just sharing this post would do us a lot of good. Please, help us save our cat.
i’ve heard a lot of people talk about the EXCELLENT potential of a high intelligence/low wisdom dnd character (i.e. an brilliant academic who keeps setting their dumb ass on fire because they always store their wand in their back pocket)
but i’ve not seen any posts about the equal potential of a high wis/low int character (i.e. someone incredibly perceptive who gives deep and meaningful reassurance to their friends and then 5 minutes later asks what a can opener is)
This is who I want to play in my upcoming D&D game.
The latter was legit my first D&D character ever. He was like. Two intelligence points away from being incapable of actual speech. But he was so goddamn good with people.

man: has anyone ever told you you’re beautiful? me: oh no sir, today is my first day out of doors and papà forbade mirrors in the house lest we fall victim to vanity
I’ve been laughing at this on and off for two straight days
