Fun Fact
BuzzFeed published a report claiming that Tumblr was utilized as a distribution channel for Russian agents to influence American voting habits during the 2016 presidential election in Feb 2018.
There are so many reasons that I should start trying to work out in the morning.
More energy. Better Sleep. Better Appetite. Potato brain functions slightly better.
Finally gained enough energy/executive functioning to attempt to turn my Sad/Sickgirl Nest into the bedroom of a semi-functional adult.
Still a bit of a heap, but:
The bedding is washed
The bed is made
Clean clothes have been put away
Some of the trash and recyclables have been picked up
The bathroom is clean!
I think that might have to be enough for today. If I do too much when I have energy, I crash hella hard later. *Might* scrub the shower down when I'm in there anyway.
These two have no damn sense, but they got plenty of audacity! Girl, say no. You do not want this crusty boy!
What in the entire fuckery is this conversation?! I don't feel like anyone properly warned me about these two. Plenty about ghost fucking, but nothing about this!
He looks like he is going to murder everyone. I don't care what his actual deal is. He is doing the squinty eyes too well to be sane.
This actress has the longest resume, yet her and Fluke being in another series together after the disaster that was Oh! My Sunshine Night and playing darker versions of those characters is pleasing my soul.
Why is there never anything fun about a funhouse? Not one thing. Time for me to double speed this part! I'm not watching this on normal speed. Nah.
This is too real
THIS SHIT MOVED!
It's an actual person being creepy as hell watching all this shit going down. STOP THE MADNESS! TURN ON THE LIGHTS!
WHO DAFUQ ARE THESE TWO SCREAMING LIKE THAT?!
This is not giving me "I killed you" vibes. Don't make me feel bad for this bully!
Oh, shit! The ring's gone.
Mom, I'm scared. Come pick me up. And bring alcohol.
did you know: there's a send button so you dont have to annoy the op and everyone reading the notes when you tag your friends in a reblog of someone elses post. its right next to the reblog button, if you've ever been "blocked by some random person youve never interacted with" and don't know why, take this as a clue.
father is arriving tomorrow afternoon and staying until monday (thank the lords under he's staying in a hotel in the city centre rather than at my place), and the anticipation has been fucking me up in a bad way.
obv i do not have a good relationship with him, but since he's helping financially i don't have the luxury to cut contact like i've done with mother. monthly skype sessions and annual visits are an unfortunate price to pay for the help.
my sleep has been fucked up worse and worse the closer we get to the date (as in i sleep way more than i should -- which is par for the course) and i anticipate a lot more of it once he's gone back to belgium (past experience has taught me that i need a good week of dead sleep to recuperate mentally) and i'm just hoping that i don't get physically sick like the last time i saw him (just before covid hit).
and for the first time ever, he's actually going to come see me at my place rather than us meeting in the city centre and going to his hotel for breaks, which is disturbing as it's making my safe place not feel very safe.
it's just gonna be a very uncomfy long weekend, where i censure myself, dress as masculine as i can because being feminine around him gives me the heebie-jeebies, avoid having to address him by his 'title' (i.e. papa - can't even call him by his first name 'cause that's not on apparently) and keep the physical contact to the strict minimum while keeping my grimace internal.
only good thing of the visit is that he's bringing the painting i inherited from gramma when she died last winter.
i hate hate hate having to see him and i always feel extra yuck afterwards.
Question! How integral, exactly, is it to the concept of fantasy elves to have thousand year life spans?
If, for example, I put elves in this one fantasy setting with Arcanth, but made them just another species of hominins, would people yell at me about it? Like they'd still be pointy, and kinda purpley gray, but if I set it so that 100 years old is old, and 200 years old is an extra elderly grandma, how much should I expect to be told I'm doing fantasy wrong?
They can still have immortal fae beings in their origin myths, but as a common species of a more "playable race" - flavor it feels like cheating to have them live multiple centuries. It would be fine if they were these otherworldly beings like in Tolkien's books, but the guy shelving stuff at your grocery store? Ehhhh.
Man, they'd break politics so bad, wouldn't they?
I mean, it's the internet, I know pedants exist, but how essential exactly is the lifespan thing to the concept of elves in fantasy literature?
