YES. VERY TRUE
idk
Ok so….
There’s this one concept that is really funny to me
Imagine some ancient wizard, I’m talking hunched back gray hairs warts old wizard. He sends the heroes on a quest/joins their party and this whole time they treat him like one wrong wind is gonna blow him over, then one day they walk into his home, catching him off guard, and instead of some old wizard, they find a young, pretty man.
Like it would be so funny to me for this wizard to look like 25, and after not being taken seriously, starts using illusions/makeup to make himself look older so that people would respect him
And his party just so, so confused because they thought they were dealing with someone so fragile they could die of 1d4 sneezing damage, but instead their wizard is actually really healthy
tired: mermaids are all women
wired: much like elves, merfolk are mistaken by sailors for being all women because they have long hair and are very pretty

(about this guy)
a kiln god is a small clay sculptural creature that stays on/in/near a kiln while it’s firing, to watch over the pottery inside and protect it
mine are all vaguely humanoid and holding pottery, but they can be anything
a lot of people leave their kiln gods unglazed, and only ever make one or two. because I work with a shared kiln, my kiln gods have to be inside the kiln so they don’t get bumped or broken, so it makes more sense to glaze them and keep making more
(^this one I kept, she lives on my pottery desk)
people have lots of little traditions around kilns and pottery. there are so many variables to successfully finishing a piece of pottery, and many of the steps are out of our control. it’s nice to have a kiln god watching over our work
if you take a pottery class, your teacher might mention the kiln gods. for some potters/studios they’re more of a concept than anything physical
what can I say, humans just love to make little guys
I cannot stand the parodies of modern major general, they're overdone and simply not as good as the original. They've done them about everything, whatever topic, big or small.
And when i notice one of them my eyes will always start to roll.
The diction's always slurry when they rush the complicated words, and adding many fricatives will turn it so cacophonous. The slanted rhymes are silly and they keep just making more and more, please someone stop the parodies of modern major general.
The scanning of the lyrics in the meter is unbearable, they emphazise the syllables in ways that are untenable, in short in matters musical, prosodic and ephemeral, i cannot stand the parodies of modern major general!
I'm so tired of living this way (← girl that will never do anything to change her way of living because breaking the routine scares her more than anything)
