SUCCESS!

There's a lot more, I'm sorry I can't describe better! I wish we kept the sheet. There's some fruits on there, there were some slices of something citrusy, & what I *think* were figs? I don't eat fruit so I wasn't paying as close attention to that. And there were some sun dried tomatoes as well!

Oh gosh, I think my parents threw out the list of what was on the board! But I know that there was some lovely Merlot cheese with a purplish rind, some very sweet candied walnuts, some thick cut slices of peppered salami, a jar of spicy olives, & some wedges of Gouda!

FEED* jfc, FEED five people. Autocorrect, you make weird choices sometimes.

A charcuterie board that is Halloween themed. There is a cut out of a jack o lantern, and a witches hat, in cheese.

👻🎃 Charbooterie board! 🎃👻

Admittedly it said it would feel five people and we were like “this could feed three people if we’re being generous, and not with the way WE eat charcuterie” 🤣

Shh don’t say the quiet part out loud! 🫣🤣

Probably depends! Especially depends on how many we can actually get through. But I know we were going to try and watch Hocus Pocus and the Halloweentown series (but maybe not all of it — 4 movies is a lot). I’d love to watch the Addams Family and the Addams Family Values, too. Casper would be fun!

Basically I think I'm gonna be nose to the grindstone from like when I started noodling on my DH project (at like 9:30 this morning) until like... 5:30 tonight. Get in a solid 8 hours of revising. But that's when the youngest of the lil kiddos start showing up for candy.

Spooky Day is HERE 👻🎃 Today:

I'm so EXCITED for Halloween!

-whispers- This one’s my writing 🥹👉🏻👈🏻 it’s so exciting to see it all laid out like this. Working on these Daggerheart frames has been so much fun.

Man, do you know what I would've given to have ever gone to ANY school that would've thrown a Halloween or autumn festival? I don't think schools actually even do that. Strictly a movie thing. But I would've been so *delighted* by it.

RIGHT?! 😭😭😭

You guys they announced a new Animal Crossing update after YEARS and I’m gonna CRY. I’m gonna just burst into tears. It’s like a BIG, SUBSTANTIAL update, they’re actually adding new stuff to the game, I’m gonna cryyy 😭

My loving boyfriend is so patient with me when we watch Critical Role together, because god damn do I watch this show like I’m watching a sports match, AKA, yelling at my computer screen throughout the entire episode 😅 I’m a menace.

We put on Young Frankenstein for the Halloween movie of the night. We were yapping about some of the actors, and my mom was like "Wait, what else do you know Teri Garr from, specifically?"

And I was like "An episode of Shelley Duvall's Fairytale Theatre."

And my mom was "Like, damn THAT'S a pull."

That does sound like it would be a lot of fun! I can just imagine the response 🤣

That's funny on it's own, honestly. Just like "Good, they got me edgy enough."

🤣 Oh my gosh, Graham -- that's great. I especially love the second one. Imagine seeing yourself portrayed that way and just being like "wait, WHAT? is anyone else actually SEEING this? C'mon!"

That's honestly so valid. And yeah, I for sure see how the reality of that situation could be *very* uncharitably portrayed as you've described, *especially* if the people portraying them (though perhaps not?) have an agenda of their own. Propaganda is scary.

Oop 🤣 yeah that’s totally fair. I can just imagine characters seeing themselves portrayed as a parody and being like 😒 “… I’m not like that.” 🤣

I genuinely don’t know. I don’t know what else to try. I think that’s part of the problem.

A recipe card explaining how to make "Ham and Potato Casserole". However, all the mentions of green beans have been scribbled out. Ham has also been scribbled out and replaced with "Juggler"

A recipe card for Deviled Chicken Thighs. However, all mentions of chicken have been crossed out and replaced with "Clown" and a mention of "Hot Pepper Sauce" is scribbled out and replaced with "Fabric Softener"

Working on my submission for the #meatcircusjam!

It is a cozy Ghibli-esque solo TTRPG about cooking meals with your friends and co-workers!

The words “Question of the Day” are emblazoned on a black background in white serif font, and are surrounded by stylized white stars and butterflies.

✨TTRPG/D&D Question of the Day✨

How would your TTRPG character and their party be portrayed by an inaccurate acting troupe, a la the Ember Island Players from Avatar the Last Airbender?

Would they be turned into fools? Or maybe villains? Describe it!

I truly wish I knew how. Like, I'm for sure trying, but the problem is that nothing seems to recharge me for very long? Like I'm a little more charged AS I'm resting, & then as soon as I have to hop back into things, I'm completely drained again.

Which makes me think I never really charged at all.

Like I don't *think* it's making me fall behind on work and project stuff? But I also feel like I'm constantly not working as much as I should be, despite the fact that I'm still getting things done in a timely manner.

I'm just tired of completely falling apart. I'm tired, y'all.

Y'all let me tell you, I am real tired of my whole body blaring sirens and shutting down every time I suffer a minor inconvenience.

I’m not actually sure 🤣 I know they are all going to get more powerful at least? That’s what my RP partner said. And I was like “hoo boy!” And I have to beat them without any outside help. As for “bigger”, we already have a party griffon, so who knows, the constellations COULD get bigger!

Morning bump just to thank you all for laughing with me at the amazing absurdity and hilarity of this entire encounter. I want you all to know that I ended that confrontation with *19* out of *57* HP, so the starfish indeed gave me a thorough thrashing.

Part of the reason I have to prove myself to the other constellations is because I didn’t pick them first (I picked the swan), so they’re just a little bit salty about it. Not the only reason, but one of them.
