Saw a video about how Duolingo works and apparently the weird sentences are made by actual people on purpose, because 1- it's fun, 2- something unusual is easier to remember and 3- even if you're not gonna use "the bear talks with a lawyer" in real life you're probably gonna remember the grammar structure when using actual sentences. So whenever you see a Duolingo phrase that maker you go "WTF?!" Know that someone probably had a lot o fun adding it to the app

Suits writers were really like “look! Darvey!!!! He threatened Donna’s own father for her sake! Isnt it soooo romantic?” and then expected me to brush off Harvey paying for Mikes rookie dinner, or him telling Jessica if she wants to fire one of them they both leave, or drugging Mike to temporarily break him out of PRISON, or breaking every rule to keep Mike with him, or giving Mike a key to his apartment and so much other shit as Bromance…. Whoooo are you fooling???

NEW BRAIN ROT
A borrower and his pregnant wife hunker down in a new and safer house after a last minute move due to their old residence adopting a cat. She is dealing with constant cravings, so the husband takes it upon themselves to try and steal more and more random (and frustratingly hard to open/carry foods).
Prying open the fridge, stealing whole cans to try and crack open, trying to figure out how to steal various liquids without just puncturing the cartons...
Inevitably, this risky behavior gets them caught. They managed to pry the fridge open again, only for the human ( who moments ago was asleep) to sleepily open up the fridge. In their panic they manage to get their legs stuck in the barred rack, leaving them in full sight of the human.
The human shouts falling back at the unexpected sight and for a moment the two just stare.
The human reaches for him and this time it's the borrower who falls back, leg still stuck between bars. Their pleas just slip out-
"Please, I have a wife and a child on the way- "
The human pauses, his hand changing orientation, going from reaching to grab to offering an open palm to help the borrower stand.
They're caught by a young man roughly the same age as them. Though taken aback by the bizzare scenario, the human offers a nervous smile and asks them what they were trying to get.
The borrower sheepishly admits they were trying to get pickles and peanut butter.
The human man lets out a genuine laugh, nodding as if agreeing.
"Dude, my wife gets the same craving!"
The borrower is surprised at the revelation, but for some reason he finds the similarities between their situation reassuring.
The man helps him out of the fridge and packs up some food for him, adding a few extra snacks as well as multivitamins for his wife. All the while the two quickly bond over their situation. Both are first time fathers, both are terrified yet excited, both are head over heels for their wives etc...
The borrower doesn't leave right away. They stay up talking, opening up a beer or sharing a late night coffee. Regardless, the two somehow manage to put the bizzareness of their situation on the back burner due to the excitement of finding someone else that can relate.
AHH
Just two soon to be Dad Bros trying to navigate uncharted water.
Bonus points if both their wives are listening in like "What the fuck is going on?" But neither of them want to go through the hassle of getting up to investigate because they're sore and everything sounds fine..

Seeing goofy little scrimblo fanart of Paul Matthews is so funny to me because in my head Paul is really just Jon Matteson + not liking musicals, and I go on tumblr and see “look at my little scrunckle” and it is the real life adult human man Jon Matteson

What's with the beef with NRS (no ill intent just a genuine question. I would like to hear you out)
I linked my previous rant but the summary of it is that i hate NRS is doing bare minimum of lgbtq representation with scrubbed clean, barely-there moments and playing safe just to appeal to their heteronormative mass.
This beef is fueled by johnshi (obviously) how NRS is just making offhand straight couples while refusing to canonize one of their most organic pairings. Idk if i explicitly mentioned it on my blog or not, but while i love Ashrah and Syzoth together, i don't like the fact that how easily NRS made them a couple. They literally have one line of direct interaction ("good work, Syzoth") in the story mode but out of nowhere, they're dating? I know some length of time passed between the end of story and intro lines happening, and they had bonded during it, BUT isn't it so frustrating that nobody questioned or resisted them?
No gay ships could do that. I'm just sooo jealous and envious.
