@wipsnips.bsky.social “run”
It was noxious. A blend of rot, and animal droppings, and perhaps old blood, washed through Clara’s small, frigid nose. She ground her teeth, fighting the urge to retch. She wanted to run, wanted to escape—but there was nowhere better to be.

“Today the TwinBots and I charted a little star system that’s Arak-South of Arak Central by about three lightyears. Two planets, one inhabitable. No crash debris on either planet, or along any of the ion trails from the last two and a half months…”

@wipsnips.bsky.social I didn’t have “steel”
“Clara had seen jammed musket balls removed from the firearms with wicked, twisted spires of metal. If she hadn’t known what caused this suffering, she might have wondered if such a tool had been turned on her.”

#wipsnips “nice”
“She lit the stub, and slowly raised the light.
It fell across a small parlor—except that a parlor is a nice place to sit, and this was a far cry from that. The sofa, which sagged in the middle, might have been blue, green, or even gold, but it was impossible to tell…”

I’ve decided that the biggest difference in character between Mushu and Donkey is that Mushu made oatmeal (happy to see ya) while in the morning, Donkey’s makin’ waffles.

“It comes in pints?!” Implies that Merry & Poppin, who have very likely wandered as far as Bree before, were systematically lied to for the good of their livers 🤣 #lotr

When people/songs say “Jesus was born in a manger” I giggle because i just don’t picture Mary climbing into the manger to deliver. *Born* in a stable, *lain* in a manger. Also, i might’ve conjugated “lie/lay” wrong don’t bite me.

You know what’s cool? The Ring has no specific gender markers. Like, yeah, Sauron is a dude and it’s an extension of him. But it could easily be his feminine side. The literary analyst in me really appreciates that. #lotr
