"Humans will always make gods out of the absurd" is killing me rn
Thank you! I was extremely stoned when I wrote that tag.
is that estradiol in the rathole?
My smooth brain does NOT appreciate the complexity of America's capitalism!!!1!
i want to coin a phrase that's the opposite of writer's block. call it the muse's fire hydrant. thirty thousand story ideas are being beamed directly into your brain and if you don't write them all at once you will die.
yknow what i mean?
It has just occurred to me that of all the characters in Winnie the Pooh, the only ones that lack both fingerless stuffing hands and faint seam lines (the indications that someone is a stuffed animal) are Rabbit and Owl. Which carries the possible implication that Rabbit and Owl are just a normal rabbit and owl living with a bunch of sentient stuffed animals.
And somehow this makes Rabbit’s constant consternation with all of his neighbors even funnier to me.
Theyre also the only ones with bushy eyebrows and chest and chin floof, and I dont know if thats relevant but it FEELS relevant! Also someone mentioned Gopher too and OF COURSE, there is absolutely no argument that this whistling little man isn’t just an average (talking) gopher.
The more I examine this the more it feels just so OBVIOUS
You are exactly right! Most of the characters in the stories are based on the real Christopher Robin Milne’s stuffed toys except for Rabbit and Owl who were added for the books and Gopher who is exclusive to the Disney adaptations.
Here are the real Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, Kanga, and Eeyore. They currently live at the New York Public Library.
It’s fairly clear in the book illustrations too:
‘Owl,’ said Rabbit shortly, ‘you and I have brains. The others have fluff. If there is any thinking to be done in this Forest – and when I say thinking I mean thinking – you and I must do it.’

Happy anniversary old as balls gifset
We are pleased to note the continued survival of this meme to the point that it, too, is Old As Balls
Y/n: Did you buy eggs like I asked?
Legolas: Even better!
Y/n: What the fuck did you-
Legolas: *holding up a chicken* Her name is Fluffy.
This is my new friend, Tük, and he supports this message.

Sneak peek at the world of Dragon Age: Dreadwolf
This Sunday afternoon I was running for a tram and there was a knock at the door
I live in a city where you don't use the front door so thought "I'm already on my way out, I'll see who it is when I get round the front" (there's too much stuff in the way to even open the front door)
So I get to the front door and
... OK yeah I was a bit surprised.
A few friends know about this meme, live in the same city as me and know my address.
Four were at home and had yet to find a walrus with which to do this bit.
Two were about to leave the house to be somewhere else (same place I was going).
One is apparently in France.
Not one of them admits knows who did this.
I'm not ruling out the possibility they all know exactly who did it.
We're trying to figure out who it was on Discord and virtually everyone is saying "I wanted to, I planned on, but I didn't have the time" or "I couldn't find an appropriate walrus" or "I'd have given it fairy wings"
I feel like I'm in a reverse Murder On The Orient Express situation (spoilers I guess, sorry) where everyone had motive no-one had means but the victim just died anyway. Or in this case, received a walrus.
I'm being absolutely Agatha Christie'd on with a plush pinniped.
many years ago me and best friend were traipsing around the local history museum . the museum had a long overlooked mummy room on the third floor
the sarcophagus on display was open, the elaborate lid hanging a foot above the casket to barely reveal the mummy inside, like;
and bestfriend said, Sometimes they wrote messages under the lid for the Dead to read ,
and she laid down on the dirty museum carpet next to the glass case , patting the ground next to her for me to follow suit . sure enough, the underside of the casket lid was covered in inked characters , a brochure of directions to the afterlife in case they woke up all organless and confused
someone else wandered in to the little mummy room and asked if we were ok. she said, Come check this out. so he laid down on the other side.
i crossed my arms over my chest , and so did they . four bodies , seeing a message intended for one; we love you, we miss you, we hope you find your way
There was a mummy exhibition that came through the Museum of Civilization in my hometown years ago. I went and spent most of the day there. The thing I was most struck by was that these were just people. The jewelry they prized looked exactly like stuff that was being sold a few blocks over in local merchant stores. The grave portraits looked like relatives of the people wandering around in the exhibit. Across thousands of years we still liked the same stuff and looked the same and were scared of the same things (death, the unknown). The human experience really is universal and there is something so touching and beautiful about that.
You ever think about how crows are acting not unlike how early humans probably did and you're just like. Oh ok
I saw a Thing one time about how the earliest sign of civilization is a healed femur because that shows that we were taking care of each other because if we Didn't a broken leg would mean you Die because you can't. Do things
And I was thinking about this and I remembered also seeing an article about this one mated pair of crows where one of them broke its beak and thus couldn't properly feed itself on its own. So the other one helps
So basically I have connected the two dots ("you didn't connect shit") I've connected them
And also they not only use tools but teach each other how to construct them, so uh
Really makes you think
Realistically I know immortality would kinda suck but I'd love to see where crows are going with this
Fun fact, there is little info on crows (as far as species of interest go) because they're so good at evading human tactics for collection and observation. I had a friend who studied them in grad school. Not only do they describe humans to each other (so crows you've never seen before will avoid you), they also learn the precise distance of net cannons (for trapping and tagging) after 1 encounter and then stand at that distance the entire time (making naive researchers think maybe they can juuuust caych em). So basically you need to befriend them (a common strategy), or find a murder that's never seen you before (researchers wear presidents masks to throw them off, but then they remember and describe the cars). In this case, you have one chance to collect enough in the group to get good data. Whatever crow you catch once, you probably will never catch again, ruling out biosensing devices (like they use with other birds and turtles n junk).
The latest big finding about crows is that they have a grasp of knowledge breadth, meaning they "know what they know" meaning they are conscious (self aware), have subjective experiences and can reflect on their knowledge. (Source) This also implies they have an understanding of the unknown.
Look up Andreas Nieder and Jon Marzluff's work if you want the deep skinny.
I got some writing done but not much. Why, you ask?
Someone got shots today and feels icky.

Pro tip for adulting: being late isn’t a death sentence for 95% of things. All you gotta do is call the moment you realize you’re gonna be late, apologize, and then give another small apology when you get there. The thing people really don’t like about lateness is that it seems like the other person doesn’t value their time, and since calling shows that you value their time, that leaves only the mild inconvenience of waiting a bit for them to deal with
this is 100% true. Calling ahead to let them know you’ll be late is 100000x better than just showing up late without any notice. Everyone has been late before so most of the time they’ll understand being late. Just don’t make a habit of it
