Want a funny DnD-style murder mystery with a necromantic ‘Sherlock’ and a sarcastic, pie-eating skull as ‘Watson’? Then this is the book for you!

didn’t initially realize this isn’t the tv show! it’s just a straight reread of her books as a cash grab. it’s basically a tribute album to raise money for charity; the charity is “for the good of society, transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely.”

fuck every one of these people.

Every day that It does not Happen my demands for the circumstances of It get more specific

Mary Shelley doesn't get enough credit for not only anticipating the silver-spooned narcissist techbro who recklessly creates technology without thinking through the consequences, but also for knowing that said techbro would be an absolutely terrible father.

I was definitely starting to think of new characters to build though 😅

My ttrpg character almost died at game night last night! He’s the only one in the party with any healing skills or powers and he took the maximum number of wounds from one attack 😬 Luckily someone had an adventure card they could play to get a med kit and someone else had one that gave a free power.

Holy shit. I’m 80% of the way through When the Wolf Comes Home by Nat Cassidy and I can’t believe that just happened. Like, I saw it coming! It was set up well! But I’m still making a 😱 face about it.

Yes. Graham crackers are top tier snack food

I just wish weird psychosexual obsessions functioned the way they used to. 19th century weirdos aiming to end masturbation made us both a breakfast cereal and a tasty cracker. That NEVER happens today. Nobody tries to criminalize IUDs and accidentally invents a new kind of Milano.

rfk jr talks a lot of shit for a guy who looks like the necronomicon

He doesn’t want to “reduce chronic illnesses,” he wants to reduce people with chronic illnesses

Alex seems especially great but I feel like trans people get a leg up on awesomeness because we have to be so purposeful and deliberate to become ourselves in this society.

drawing (by me) of a labubu figure with their back to the viewer, wearing black patent platform heels with red soles visible. underneath is a logo reading "Christian Labubutin"

this popped into my head and I couldn't not draw it

Hey bro I don't wanna sound like I don't trust you but I can't help but notice that you're acting as a friend and guide to our party yet you aren't in the box art
