SoapGhost with just some dude Simon is extra juicy whens it’s mythical 141 with hello just a guy Simon. Like his whole team being like these things capable of certain feats and Simon keeping up with them and people always trying to guess what he is and he’s like…… I’m from Manchester….. plus the angst of him getting hurt is juicer then too because it goes from “oh Simon nah he’s not the grim reaper he’s just out human lol” to “he’s JUST our human!!!! Get him help”
Literally though!
All of them being like, there's absolutely no way this man isn't something, we just need to figure it out! Meanwhile he's just a dude
The absolute panic when they all realize "OH FUCK HE'S HUMAN"
He can! often inspired to sing during his work or more likely: when he's a few mugs deep into a drinking night at the bar!
He gets... quite into his performance, pulling on other people to join him. getting on bar tables. it's a fun time!
🦠: Do they sneeze like a dad?
Honestly I find it hard to imagine Charr that dont! Pythey does sneeze loudly (maybe not as loud as some Charr he knows) and he often does it a few times in a row!
🐊: Animal they're convinced they could beat in a fight (if they actually can or not is irrelevant)
Karka, he is convinced if left in a pit full of Karka he'd come out on top! Though... he is really more just liable to get swarmed (it'd be a good effort though! he probably does better than most)
Funny story, it’s the main pairing I make write: josetoi. L
I initially thought of it as too, like, mean to my little murder dilf Toichiro, but 1) someone should be mean to him in a silly goofy way, 2) people should write opportunities for him and Joseph from the government to take even more Ls, and 3) they deserve each other
The best piece of advice I ever got was not meant as advice, but as an edict. If I was going to threaten people as a joke, it had to be so far out of proportion with what happened that it would be obvious I was joking. This changed how I expressed frustration with others. It then changed how I expressed frustration with myself.
Not “I’m going to hit you” but “I am going to buy a tuna sub from the gas station and hide it under the seat of your car”
Not “I’m going to kill myself” but “I am going to walk into the desert and let the scarabs take me”
The other side then happened. When I mess something up, instead of saying it’s bad and perpetuating negative thoughts, swing hard the other way.
Not “this art is terrible” but “this shall be framed and mounted on the wall in my museum exhibition as testament to the suffering I had to overcome”
Have been doing this since high school. It was my drama teacher who asked me to please stop scaring the actors. The other half of the edict was that I had to say it in a polite tone, and end it with either please or thank you.
Life changing. 10/10 Mr Muëller. Highly reccomend.
hbomberguy’s latest video on plagiarism has made me completely rethink literature and writing. I have never once so much as considered intentionally plagiarizing anyone or anything, but I think there’s something more that has come out of this: the names of the people who created the works Somerton (and others) ripped off.
Plagiarism isn’t only bad because it is lazy and disrespectful, it’s bad because it buries the truth. If you can’t find a source, the conversation is over. Somerton’s sources are fairly easy to find by simply searching his plagiarized lines, but that isn’t true in most cases. Most of the time, the line from statement to source is a lot less clear.
Today, I was writing a report on English Ivy, which is an invasive species here in the US. I wanted to know when it was introduced and I at last found a source claiming it was introduced to the Americas “as early as 1727” on a .net website that seems quite reputable (it has multiple major universities credited in its home page), but there is no citation for where this date came from. I dug deeper and found a pamphlet created by a city government in Virginia that made the same claim, only to discover the first source linked in their bibliography. Another website (a botanical garden’s page) gave the same date with the same source hyperlinked. Of course, I have classes to attend and things to do and probably not enough time to follow the lines back to where this 1727 date came from, but if I had not just watched this video, I wouldn’t have given that date a second thought.
Of course, it doesn’t matter in the long run exactly what year hedera helix was introduced to the Americas, but it makes you wonder how many facts have been so vaguely attributed that it becomes completely impossible to figure out where they originated (and further, whether or not they’re true at all).
It is scientifically proven that Dungeon Meshi will cause one of the characters to manifest in your head and tell you how to improve your life. You either get:
Senshi: eat well, rest, nourish yourself
Chilchuck: labor rights, advocate for yourself, scrutinize everything
Marcille: take care of yourself, study necromancy, be a lesbian
Laios: respect everything, learn about the world around you, be autistic.
When I followed you earlier today and then realized this blog wasn't even two days old it made me feel like I invested in a startup.
Do you think if you did the lyrics for Fireflies by Owl City, your database would give us fireflies? (Will also accept owls. And there's a line about sheep too).
