THEY'RE STUPID FOR STUPID (Ed and Stede as Calvin and Hobbes [x])

You wouldn’t think that flamingoes are extremophiles just from looking at them. It’s like somebody tried to build the vertebrate equivalent of that fungus that lives inside nuclear reactors, and ended up with a gangly pink dinosaur with a spoon for a face.

Ed and Biscuit I sketched for a friend’s birthday today (from their t4t bakery au series!)

rip community you would have done a really funny succession episode

Let’s hear it for chuplayswithfire! She was one of the first people I encountered in this fandom, and her takes have always just blown me away since day one. I’ve always admired her sheer levels of poise and intelligence in all matters of analysis and fandom. Chu, you are wonderful and deeply valued!

Hi @chuplayswithfire! You've received a lovely letter. 💌

I think a lot of like discourse of what to focus on with this or that thing gets the end goal and things to ease newcomers into your ideas confused with each other.

Like yes perhaps the end goal is to get UBI going but if your Uncle Jerry is currently struggling with the concept of taxes maybe get him to understand the cost of road maintenance first before you start trying to get him onboard with free preschool.

Also just because someone is explaining the concept of taxes to Uncle Jerry doesn’t mean they don’t believe in free childcare.

(for the purposes of this poll, there is no monkey's paw situation: the chore you pick stays the same level of difficulty/grossness/etc. as it normally is for you, and you only have to do it as often as you want to. the chores you don't pick are magically done for you exactly the way you'd want them to be, just with zero effort on your part.)

🥺 -> 🥹 -> 😠

Hot fandom discourse take but framing dark content as only being acceptable if its a vehicle for exploring personal trauma is just giving ground to the puritan segments of fandom.

Simply liking dark content for its own sake is perfectly fine.
