something about the way the absolute solver tells Cyn "I will not discard you" before taking her as its host

then later telling Tessa the same thing is very foreboding in hindsight

“Matsuura-san’s parent died… Hikaru’s parent also died… having your parent die… is bad.”

Thank god we’ve got Yoshiki here, modern philosopher of our time, to drop this wisdom upon us. Surely this grand conclusion, which required a whole flashback to come to, will have an impact on how Yoshiki views death going forward- oh wait, lol what am I saying? Of course it��s not!

I do love the netflix avatar in my own way because it provides me with enrichment in the same way brain puzzles do for chimps. Like something is WRONG here and it's your very special job to figure out why! And then you will get juice reward!!

"...Walsingham, the monastic author of the St. Albans Chronicle, was by far [Alice Perrers'] harshest contemporary critic, who in his venom has (somewhat ironically) left us with the longest and most detailed account of her background and personality, her influence as Edward’s mistress, and her subsequent trial. He describes Alice as a shameless lowborn meretrix (a word variously translated as mistress, whore, or harlot), who “brought almost universal dishonour upon the king’s reputation […] and defiled virtually the whole kingdom of England with her disgraceful insolence.” Although Walsingham was not always accurate and, specifically in this case, clearly heavily biased against Alice, he nevertheless provides a truly contemporary account, and his importance as a source should not be underestimated. Likewise, the anonymous monk of St. Mary’s York recorded that in the Good Parliament the Commons (represented by their speaker, Sir Peter de la Mare) stated that it “would be of great gain to the kingdom to remove the said dame [Alice] from the presence of the king both as a matter of conscious and of the ill prosecution of the war.” During the same assembly, the bishop of Rochester, Thomas Brinton, preached from St. Paul’s Cross that “it is not fitting nor safe for all the keys of the kingdom to hang from the belt of one wife.” Although the word wife (uxoris) is used, it is widely accepted that this is a reference to Alice.”

last night i dreamt i held you (stardew valley 1.6 update for console) in my arms.....

Of course, Minho went to Taemin’s solo concert to show his love and support, but we all know he lowkey wanted to sit in that audience and witness the Shawols lose their shit when Taemin took his shirt off in person. And you KNOW he’ll be smiling smugly, too, and thinking to himself, “I did that. You’re welcome, SHINee World.”

Man, I realize demanding that someone execute their own brother is pretty fucked up, but He Xuan asking that of Shi Qingxuan still gave them more respect than Shi Qingxuan ever got from Shi Wudu [gave them the ability to make their own choice after finally being given the full story and enough context to actually have the capacity for informed consent, something that Shi Wudu spent centuries denying to Shi Qingxuan] and also, He Xuan did nothing wrong and should be allowed to do all the atrocities he wants, thank you for your time

sometimes I get worried that whatever is wrong with me will kill me and the thing is it’s not an unfounded concern and that’s what really scares me

my life is naught but a cycle of *hopes that's nothing* *hopes that's nothing* *hopes that'll go away on its own* *hopes that's nothing* *hopes that nothing will come of that for a long time* *hopes that's n

It’s seem like I can’t escape the “people don’t want to come to work so now I gotta do their mess” shenanigans…

Holy shit I have 100 followers

I should probably do something about this. Dang.

Alright fellas, make your bets, will Quill actually manage to do a 100 special post or will her undiagnosed but probably existing attention deficit force her to draw Pokémon for another month (yeah that's what I've been doing btw) instead of getting her shit together??

We'll see~~~~~~

there’s so much i wanna do this week/month/etc but i’m just too sick, i have no energy, i can’t sleep, i’m constantly nauseous and headachey and on the verge of a migraine, i’m stressed and irritable and impatient and panicky…….how tf did i survive nearly 5 years of high school untreated if i can’t even manage this when i don’t have any major obligations rn

talking a lot about rabbit meat atm. One track mind.

anyway when me and my twin were like 2 and the social worker came round to check on us as a standard checkup (my mum was effectively a single mother of three toddlers living several miles out of town at that time so in need of some support), my sibling toddled up to her as she was leaving and said very firmly,

"You don't eat rabbits what have been runned over. You eat rabbits what have been shot."

rabbits were not a topic of conversation at the time. this was an unsolicited Toddler Fact. anyway that's what I think about whenever I think about rabbit. you don't eat rabbits what have been runned over.

my dad recently made the mistake of quoting roy's last words to me and had to endure my ten minute obsession-fuelled dissection of the ending and that scene in particular and all the symbolism. and i have come to the conclusion that i need to rewatch bladerunner NOW. ASAP. or i might actually start biting furniture

It seems to really be hitting my mum just how young she was when she had me in light of her upcoming birthday

We made a fake version of the Black Apple for our cosplay of ourself, but ever since we made it we’ve had the urge to take a bite out of it. And almost have a couple times but reminded ourself that it’s a painted foam apple.

Not sure if we should be concerned about this or not.
