I Re-teach My Brain This Every Day

You might have thought card sharks and loan sharks were named after the predatory fish, but apparently there’s a decent chance it’s the other way around from an old Dutch word meaning “person that takes unfair advantage of other people”. Before that they were known in English as a haye or dogfish, which means sometime in the ~1400s enough English sailors started saying “don’t get in the water, it’s infested with those jerks”

So I thought I'd revisit Mari and go over some stuff for the No Thieves In Ba Sing Se AU.

She is not the avatar. Just a firebender.

She helps her parents at the bakery using her firebending alongside her mother. Tom is a nonbender. (Or maybe a cake bender? Haha, jk... Unless?)

She's still Alya's bff.

Alya | Nino | Adrien | Kagami | Luka | Juleka & Rose

I thought I'd draw Marionette as a firebender

So I did. Might draw some others.

You know like how eating fresh cookies makes you feel.

Also slutty waist Zane? Chilli and cherry chocolate. Cadbury did this once I think.

I keep telling you I'm eating your art but I've never told you what it tastes like or what the texture is. It is very soft, fluffy and sweet like marshmallows, candyfloss and bonbons. There's the occasional mint Imperial which is always nice except it's warm instead of cold.

i was smiling thru the whole thing til u said its fuckinf warm like WDYM WARM MINT WHAT IS RHAT

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????

I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.

Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

The warrior cats/dsmp/cookie run type fandoms are the best most entertaining fandoms ever actually cause it will never not be funny to see all these enormous long posts about complicated plot lines and discourse about which characters are unforgivable war criminals and then the characters are named shit like twigbranch and mexican dream and fucking almond and you look them up and they just look like this

(bleeding from my wound) notice anythiung differebt about me ;)

everyone please read "tommyinnit's guide to being a (highly successful) wingman" by teacupi on a03

It is a very good fic and I just read it all in a week, it's very funny and so so worth it

If you were to ask the question

"Who would win if the Dream SMP CC fought their character's?"

The answer is always the character, except in some particular instances:

Wilbur

Schlatt

Jack Manifold

Technoblade

Now, I see some of you looking at that last one, and I've got to say: wait just a second, let me do the others first.

CC!Wilbur Soot is fucking crazy man. He would kill C!Wilbur with no hesitation and it wasn't even supposed to be a fight to the death. Sure C!Wilbur knows how to fight, sure he's a terrorist, but he's also weak as shit man. Fresh from the grave and about ten years older, he has so many problems with his body y'all. I bet he's got a limp. When he breathes it's wet. Sure both Wilbur's bones can snap like twigs, but CC has the advantage of being alive his whole life and wanting his C to suffer. C!Wilbur would hesitate and CC!Wilbur would not, and that makes all the difference.

CC!Schlatt has a gun. C!Schlatt stands no chance. Sorry bro.

Now. Here's the thing. This could actually go either way. C!Jack is easily intimidated, but so is CC!Jack. It all boils down to who can make the other back down first, the most likely outcome is a forfeit. As long as CC!Jack makes C!Jack believe he's a boxer he's won, however if any punches are thrown (though this is unlikely) C!Jack would best him.

CC!Techno would defeat Technoblade with the power of meta. We know for a fact that Technoblade is somewhat aware of the nature of his existence, though to what extent it is unclear. CC!Techno knows all of Technoblade weaknesses for he created them. All CC!Techno has to do is tell Technoblade he created him and without him he wouldn't even be a thought and if Technoblade strikes him down he shall cease to exist in all forms. If this doesn't work he can use his ultimate weapon: Floof.

I think Prodigy is going in the direction of "medusans are so beautiful that they break your mind" rather than hideous. Eldritch beauty. I mean just look at Zero - prettiest orb in the delta quadrant

god i need to know beyond anything else what age zero is emotionally. or physically. like no matter what age they are being taken from their hivemind and being used as a tool to brainwash slaves would be extremely traumatic but all i can think of is that the last time we saw a medusan on star trek, they had a name. but all zero has is “fugitive zero”. do they remember their hivemind? do they know what happened to it? do they miss it and wish they could give up this new family to go home?

how old is this orb
