"let me put this object some place obvious and inconvenient so im forced to deal with it" (grows around it like a tree root around a rock)

i cant get over the king charles portrait. they made that thing to age in his place. that painting hangs in the house of a too-friendly family you find in the post apocalyptic wasteland who inexplicably has a ready supply of fresh meat. if mario jumped into that painting he wouldn't find a charming platformer he would be flayed and hanged like a medieval criminal by an unseeable force in a droning red void. that painting is a color blindness test for people who work in IT but believe in the divine right of kings. that painting is going to weep the sequel to blood. after he dies charles is gonna crawl outta that thing like sadako.

A small family of three booked a flight to Kansas 

They arrived at the airport several hours early. As he was only four years old and this was his first experience with this sort of thing, the son was constantly wandering off.

Several times, the father had to chase him down, pick him up, and haul him back to their seats at the flight gate. After a while, he grew tired of this and told the child, "If you wander off again, I'm going to check you with the rest of the luggage."

Sure enough, wander off is exactly what the child did. So this time, the father picked him up and carried him over to the gate attendant. "Sir, I don't think I can allow you to check your own child," they told him.

The father frowned at this, then asked, "What, are you telling me I'll have to carry on my wayward son?"

Change a single letter and change the word game

I want to play a game with you all.

You have to make a new word by changing only one letter of the last word.

The problem with a lot of period dramas is that I literally grew up in a more convoluted class system than they depict so I can hardly take them seriously whenever the working classes come up.

Voice actors are SO FUCKING COOL and can completely make or break any animated sequence and I feel that movie and game companies need to remember that

Please hold out for a healthy and fulfilling relationship and don’t settle for less.

After years of being ridiculed or yelled at by those close to me when I suddenly could not speak out loud, I am accepted and encouraged by my partner.

Because not only does he accept when I suddenly can’t communicate by speaking out loud, he actually encourages it when he can tell I’m getting overwhelmed. “Hey, I can see this is a lot for you right now. Do you need to not talk?” Which is huge because of the way I was treated, I’ve constantly pushed myself beyond points of comfort to appease others. It led to me pushing beyond points when it would have been better for me to not talk out loud so when he suggests it, it’s a reminder that it’s okay to need to take a break. We now use a text to speech app when I’m unable to speak out loud and he’s so patient and kind. Sometimes he has to rely on trying to communicate with me without the app because I can’t even manage that at that moment in time. And he does. He adapts. He’s learned to communicate with me in different ways.

Sorry for the ramble. I just want you all to know you deserve to be accepted and embraced as you are.
