You Know I'm Sure You Mean A Specific 30 Issues On A Specific Run. This Is Made Much Funnier, Though,

This was a huge problem of mine when I started playing videogames XD

I could never be a protagonist because I'd just never move the plot along. "You have free reign of this castle, but don't go into this one area" Okie dokie. I mind my own business and hang out in the library. Queen of staying in my own lane. I'll never discover your magic curse.

tfw you find out your peaceful jedi boyfriend uses slurs

(commission info // tip jar!)

This exact issue came up in a serious business meeting at a corporate database job I used to have, to the eventual horror of everyone involved.

Took me a while to figure out why my coworker, who jumped to demonstrate on the laptop running the powerpoint, turned beet red and avoided everyone for weeks. Once it clicked I have never been so glad to have been half asleep at a boardtable. Thanks to my being too tired, I was slow on the uptake to volunteer when the bosses asked for an example of this supposedly superior AO3 search feature.

As a result, *I* was not the one who showed poorly punctuated porn to the entire department.

The problem with AO3 is that every online store's search function is bullshit by comparison

As tiring as all this shit is, I can't in good faith continue to use spotify.

For anyone else jumping ship, I used exportify.app to save my favorite playlists.

Edit: I'm used to maybe getting a like or two with the occasional single reblog (of mostly shitposts) so when I saw "99+" notifications I thought my app had glitched. So you can imagine my overwhelm when I was hoping to actually reach someone for once but never ever expected this, much less 10k or even 1k (or 100 if I'm being honest!). I do see people's questions and wanted to be able to provide answers but other users have already been very helpful! (thank you all so much!) So I recommend going through the notes for tips and suggestions.

So far I've downloaded Deezer and used a combination of tunemymusic and soundiz to transfer my playlists. Some seemed to only transfer the name of the playlist but no songs so I'd try the other site then it would work fine. I forget which but one has transferring more than 500 tracks at a time behind a paywall so I just did one playlist at a time and it worked. It also lets you check/uncheck individual tracks. I also like that it would show you what didn't transfer (for not being on Deezer) so I can find them elsewhere. I think the most that failed at once was maybe like 10ish tracks from my anime playlist which makes sense. It was a few specific artists.

I usually try to keep my blog peaceful (but not necessarily neutral) because we all need an escape from doomscrolling and people don't realize how quickly they can drown out your entire timeline/feed/dash/etc with said doom, despairing, and even flagrant misinformation. It doesn't mean I'm ignoring what's going on or not doing the work irl. I personally have days when I just don't have the mental capacity to process all the terrible things happening and need to see just fanart or laugh at shitposts so my goal is to provide that space for anyone needing that same breather. Hell, I just lost my job less than two weeks ago in an unexpected layoff and rent's due in a couple days so that's where my focus has been instead of the news. So I'm super grateful that one of my rare "please look at this" moments was actually, well, seen.

I cannot imagine what went down in other issues where DEATHSTROKE was brought on this fate of the world space mission. Action Comics 675

I miss when I would get Tumblr asks that actually said things and weren't just digital panhandling scams.

10/10, can I write this? A 2nd generation that is stupidly well prepared is a great idea, really highlights humanity's passing down of knowledge. Rule number one would probably be 'be nice to the locals,' they'd have the goblins unionizing.

to briefly revisit my decade old Labyrinth hyperfixation, I think it would be neat if Sarah grows up, has a teenage daughter who finds her book and while in a pissy mood wishes goblins would take her mother away

just imagining Sarah freaking the fuck out, taking the extremely limited amount of time she knows she has left to load up her confused daughter with all of the iron jewellery she never usually takes off, peppering her with instructions not to eat ANY of the food and vague warnings about illusions in the walls

and then suddenly before she knows it her mother is just gone, and she's being told by a strange glittery man that she must begin her own journey through the Labyrinth to find her mother

the funniest part however would be Jareth finishing his spiel to the daughter and returning to his castle to properly greet his new hostage with no fucking clue who he just snatched, and finds to his surprise and horror a Too Old For This Shit Sarah absolutely rampaging through the halls threatening to tear down his entire world all over again if he doesn't take her back to her daughter right the fuck now

I can't decide which is funnier, the tale ending with Jareth lobbing Sarah at her daughter before she even gets one foot into the Labyrinth and fucks them off home immediately, or the daughter completing her shockingly easy journey through the Labyrinth only to find her mother sitting in the king's throne with a dazed Jareth under her heel and terrified goblins waiting on her hand and foot

Oh hohoho this is gonna be GOOD

So I heard it was WIP Wednesday...? June of Doom preview, and, as you can see, I am not holding back on the angst (this is Lone Pine ca ~1980).

Speaking as someone who (without breaking the law) wreaked vengeance such as was spoken of in hushed whispers for years upon my longtime tormentors...felt super satisfying. Still gives me the warm fuzzies to think of it. Then again, I also let go of all my anger at them afterwards bc I considered us even, so your experience may vary.

You know what's stupid? When a story's like "this character gets revenge and then just feels all empty inside and without any sense of accomplishment, thus proving that revenge is meaningless!" Like. My pal. I feel empty inside when I complete ANY kind of long-term project, including ones that have immediate and tangible benefits; so unless you want to seriously consider the thesis statement "making comfortable socks is meaningless", I highly suggest you revise your conclusion.

Third time's the charm, hopefully :D

📚Watson's Sketchbook PREORDER!📚

Hello! In response to ~unprecedented levels of demand~ for print versions of Watson's Sketchbook Volume 1, I'm doing another print run, and will be opening preorders here on MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, at 9:00am PST/12:00 noon EST/5:00pm GMT.

DETAILS:

-This run is much larger than the two previous ones, but still limited, so being prompt is a good idea. Last time it sold out in 2 minutes, I do not think that will happen this time, but...early bird, etc.

-They will take a bit longer to arrive than previous orders, but should arrive for everyone by the end of January 2025, print- and shipping-gods willing. Thanks in advance for your patience, as I'm working with a small press printer and a small local distributor.

-If your address changes before the book ships, you can always send a message to the shop to update it. In general, any messages or questions about shipping should be sent there rather than by reaching out to me on here.

-I'm really hoping this run is large enough so that everyone who wants one can get it! Thank you always for your support of this ridiculous project that has consumed my life (positive) and for your support of independent art and queer art!
