Mugs of Goodwill
I was getting pajamas at Goodwill and as happens, I ended up wandering down the tat aisles. I don't buy a lot of physical possessions these days, but I love cycling mugs, so let's see what they have! Oh boy!
1) Blue Heron
Honestly, I didn't realize until I got home that this heron mug, despite being marked dishwasher/microwave safe (and vegan??), has an odd...crumple to the design, which is flaking off. They go for a buck, so if it starts going downhill, I'll take it outside and use it as a seed starter. Reduce reuse recycle!
2) Frolicking Reindeer
This is obviously going away for a bit, but I'm looking forward to pulling it out of storage after Thanksgiving. Hot drinks from seasonal mugs is one of my favorite things!
3) Trick Shadow Mug
Do you ever buy something and regret it? More specifically, do you ever buy something, accidentally destroy it, and regret it? This is a copy of a mug I bought on sale and was surprised by--the shadow puppets turn into hands when you add hot water, which absolutely delighted me. Unfortunately, I got pretty lax about putting it in the dishwasher, and the OG is starting to fade out. I regretted that...until today! Into storage for the grandkids with you!
4) Discount Hamilton
Shit dude, it's the man with the singing about the old dudes! I am a Broadway nerd, and I gave a pass on the mug at $20 ($30?) on tour, so 99 cents is quite a bargain! That's ninety-nine Lincolns! Lol! Please lol I counted the pennies out individually and the teller didn't laugh once even though I told the joke 99 times!
5)
This mug. This mug holds the elevator door for senior citizens so it can open it between flights and shove them down the shaft. This mug rolls homeless veterans for bus money and walks home. This mug stands outside of pain clinics putting cigarettes out on dogs. This mug holds no good will. This mug is in Hell's gift shop. This mug told Tiny Tim to git gud. This mug unsaved Christmas.
6) Comic Strip Crush Wig

We'd absolutely love to do something to celebrate this, I check Tumblr while waiting for the moving truck and guess what!!
Almost a hundred of you... I would like to make something special, or do something special? Though I'm not quite sure. Is there something you would all like as a celebration? I'll be happy to as soon as I'm moved! Again ... I am so emotional! For so many things! Things are looking up! I appreciate all of you, and I'm working on those ask requests, I promise! It has just taken a back seat with moving, so please bear with me!

So you choose not to step through the door, after all why mess with nonsense when you're already in nonsense? You check the items in your pockets, your phone you shut off to conserve power, the dog tag, key and top clink together but offer no help, and when you fiddle with the walkie-talkie you manage to get it to turn on, excitedly you call out to the void but only static responds, which is disappointing but predictable, so you put the items away and hunker down for the night, looking at the sky you can see that the stars seem strange, though you're no expert, and the moon seems to have a second smaller moon near it which looks pretty cool but is a stark reminder of how not on your own world your predicament has landed you.
In the morning you begin looking through the nearby bushes and plant life taking note of anything strange, you notice the berries you had been picking before you stepped through the door are also growing around here, they look and taste the same, and some other plants seem pretty similar to the forest from before as well, although the further away from the door you go the more unfamiliar plants you come across (of course that may just be your lack of familiarity with plants) and the few animals you have noticed are bizarre in a way that you can't explain, like the people from town, they seem almost perfectly familiar, just a little off and the noises they make have you thinking they wouldn't be able to communicate with their counterparts either, brushing aside another branch you come across a strange funnel made of metal which you pocket and what looks to be a regular whistle, you wipe it down and blow but hear nothing aside from the air going through, you consider it is either broken or maybe a dog whistle, as you go to put it away you hear something big running in your direction, before you can decide how to react a large creature storms out of the bushes and stops in the clearing before you, it's huge as a horse with paws and sharp teeth it licks as it looks around and spots you, it shakes its head again reminding you of a horse, then steps closer before turning and staring expectantly, you get the feeling it's waiting on you, impatiently, and you realize it seems to expect you to get on its back. Do you get on?
Yes.

Back on my "Fukuzawa meeting Ranpo's parents" bullshit.
-Love the idea of Ranpo's parents adopting Fukuzawa on sight and parenting him to his befuddlement
BUT ALSO
-Fukuzawa suddenly has.... three Ranpos. Both of Ranpo's parents being tiny, childish, brilliant balls of energy like him (if slightly more mature). They take him to dinner and worry that they're talking too much in their own language to each other, what with Fukuzawa being so quiet, but he's actually just experiencing the equivalent of watching a whole family of kittens play in front of him and he's trying very hard not to gather them all up in a hug.
-Ranpo's parents parenting at Fukuzawa while Fukuzawa keeps slipping and patting their heads and praising them because that's how you deal with a Ranpo.

you're so right about the Christmas wine thing. Your brother should listen to you more often 😆
THANK YOU! If he can put aside his inability to understand what stars taste like and just trust me and listen to my instructions I think he'll be able to make the most perfectest, most Christmasy wine ever!!

Pre-Hater Empire watchdogs produced a lot of air pollution because since they were trapped in caves, they didn't know and/or didn't care what happened to the surface.
They still pollute but now it's because they're Evil.
