Uncharismatic Megafauna

That was the one that got me. I know some of the rougher bits of the book didn't really migrate fully to the film, but cozy is not what I'd call it at all.

A handmade oddish, made of a blue sweatshirt and a pale green towel.

One childhood thing that came to the new place is this cuddly oddish that my mum made for me. It now hangs out on the arm of the sofa.

At the time, it would have likely had Norse/Irish/Welsh influence, but my partner says the modern Scouse accent has some different influences that came in later thrown in as well.

You turned the big light on.

Every time I went, it found a new way to be an unpleasant venue.

‘Catastrophic decline’ in Black representation in children’s books A report by charity Inclusive Books for Children found that of the 2,721 books surveyed, only 51 featured a Black main character, down by 21.5% since 2023

One of the things about this study is that a lot of baby and toddler books are written in house, by editors. So the study reveals the whiteness of editorial in kidlit even if not explicitly. But, big picture, this trend is unacceptable. I remember so many promises www.theguardian.com/books/2025/o...

Here's a lovely photo of my fabric art moth phantom. She's a white moth phantom with a gray face, large twinkly black eyes, and a little frown. She has curly white antennae. There are black and gray oval markings on her wings. There's a beautiful galaxy print fabric in the background.

Here's another lovely pic of Edith. In this one, she's resting on my palm.

Meet my newest creation Edith the Moth Phantom! I designed and hand-sewed her. She enjoys singing sea shanties with her cryptid band. They perform primarily for the moon. She also likes appearing to travelers as good or bad omens, depending on her mood.

Having lived in Cambridge (UK edition) for seven years, I regret to inform you that this type of guy is real, I have met several of him and hated every second.

Oh hey, this is also my whole experience of being around other people.

You do a great job. There's so much good stuff that you've talked about that I would never have known about otherwise.

solomonskalozub.blogspot.com/2025/10/stop... Alright, I had the writing muse, I wrote something on it

My manager's all like "I don't see how your neurodivergence affects you" and no, I am very good at masking at work, but as soon as you see me in a social context where my rent isn't dependent on me charming people I lurk in corners and stare like a ghost in a second-rate horror film.

This is why I have no friends other than you.

I will hover silently behind a group and then everyone feels uncomfortable until I leave.

One of them allowed me to gently touch her head and she was so soft that I instantly died.

This bar has cats, and I would like the cats to sit next to me.

Congratulations!

Different fungi sprout from and around the skull, including red mushrooms with white spots, yellow fan-shaped mushrooms, gray cluster mushrooms, and orange bulbous mushrooms, with green and purple plants filling the background. A ribbon at the bottom of the skull reads “ADMIT ONE.”

4) To break this silence, we need to open up a space where we're going to get criticized as well. Some bad choices in the past might be unearthed. We might have to admit we had bad takes on some stuff for long. When we truly care about community, we do this to get better collectively.

3) The first reaction that most band people have when discussing call-outs or generally being political in the scene is "but I also played with X and Y, now I'm next to get cancelled LOL" and equating anti-fascism with bad faith arguments and purity culture.

2) Because, guess what, if you've been in the metal scene for long (esp. the apolitical part and extreme subgenres), chances are that you HAVE been complicit in facilitating nazis in some way. I've been too - I've had a track in a comp with NSBM bands, I've performed with sketch bands younger.

1) Ripped to Shreds cancelling a show with Master and calling them out because they played at Metal Threat is exactly the thing that's almost never done in the metal scene and makes a HUGE difference when it happens. It's a conversation starter about complicity in metal and most plp don't want it.
