Y'know, I just saw the phrasing in @mega-ringsandthings-world ’s post about annoying Jonsas and went “Holy shit, that’s right”.
But that makes sense. Think about it. King’s Landing is huge. Drogon is tiny in comparison. Look at this:
They’re just picking streets at random; look at how much isn’t burning! The only possible way King’s Landing could have been burned to the foundations was if Dany and Drogon purposely went back and forth row by row like that one time I tried to cover a small Minecraft world in gemstones. I’m not sure how long dragons can breathe fire, but that doesn’t seem right. And considering how quickly the battle was over…
Yeah, there’s no way she did that. There were a lot of buildings still standing while the Red Keep fell. This isn’t the Dany we know and love, but it still puts her at a lower kill count than some characters in Game of Thrones (not even counting the prequels to A Song of Ice and Fire). This website put it at 300-500,
maybe a bit higher (possible, depending on how many people were stupid enough to stay in the streets, because they definitely seemed to be mostly targeting streets). Still random death—not genocide. Learn your words.
In conclusion, D&D were grossly overestimating by saying half a million. Fuck’s sake, you think that’s systematic genocide? Look at the Holocaust. You think that’s a lot of deaths for a war and definitely the worst war crime ever? Look at WWII, and tell me Daenerys is Hitler. That’s insensitive to actual victims.
Can we also give little boys stuffed toys 🧸? They need things to hug and cuddle.
Is eldritch joy a thing? Because Tom Bombadil thinks it is.
While talking with the Hobbits, Tom Bombadil puts on the One Ring. For a moment, all of the Nazgul burst into merry song. It is never discussed among them again.
Gods forbid we are proud to grown and learn
you arent going to be capable of any meaningful kind of solidarity with anyone if your response to new perspectives or information is to pretend you already knew.
if you cant say things like “i hadnt thought about it that way” or “thats a good point” (or even, god forbid “thanks for checking me on that”) when theyre appropriate, consider whether youre actually interested in developing your understanding or if youre just invested in your political self image.
Okay I like it! But in RN school I used this trick to memorize supine - SUPine is when you lay down on your back and you can have a bowl of SoUP resting on your stomach . Prone is the opposite of soup - no soup because you are on your stomach. Don’t every body thank me all at once!
can I get a job as an editor but the only thing I do is correct when someone uses the word "prone" when they mean "supine"
Mycelium. Mycelium. Mycelium. Mycelium…
I ain't a bald primate
That tongue does not relate
Man is done
The ape is dead
Lungs of the planet on a golden thread
I ain't debating
I'm a mushroom, ok
I spread like lava
Rise like bread
Currency of decay
Amongst my kin, I extend acidic salutations
Exhale the dust of seasons
Inhale the breath of civilisations
I grip with devil's fingers and stroke the green curtain
We, the thoughtful element
Dumb rock
Unthinking ocеan
Network of the wood
Tannin of the еvening
Synapse of the bush
I disappear amongst my kin
Mycelium. Mycelium. Mycelium. Mycelium…
Klingons are integrating new words for the cat slow-blink into Klingon. They have specific words for a when a Klingon/cat exchange a slow-blink and a different word for when a parent/child exchanges a slow-blink.
My kitten tried to kill my stuffed tribble. My roommate remarked that my tribble killing cat would make a great Klingon pet… and she’s right.
Imagine a Klingon ship having a cat that protects them from tribbles & vermin. They have to get the cat from a shelter run by humans and they’re like “This is the honorable Mr. Chonks”.
“Yes, our ship also has an earth feline. Her name is Carrot and she fights like a warrior.”
There’s absolutely a Klingon out there who lost an eye to a feral cat that he then adopted.
Klingons who go “pspspspsps” to get the Ship Cat to come hang out during break.
Orange Ship Cat that gets lost in the jeffires tubes and Klingon whose sole job is to go fetch the orange cat. He acts like he hates his job but he actually really adores his feline co-worker so much.
Klingon that always hands things to the Ship Cat so it can sniff it.
Klingon that intentionally grabs boxes to enrich Ship Cat’s little life. Sometimes they get multiple boxes and the crew bets on which box will be deemed “best box” by their fluffy little warrior.
Klingon that starts his work shift saying “Qapla’!” to Ship Cat who meows in return.
Newly Minted Ship Kitten climbing up to a Klingon Captain’s shoulder with her tiny needle claws while said Captain is attempting to be intimidating on the viewscreen.
Klingon who gets a head bunt from Ship Cat and gives it a head bunt back.

2. Be a silly billy
PSA:
1. If you are not silly, it is vital you become silly
2. If you are silly, you must stay silly
2. If you used to be silly but have stopped, you must make all efforts to return to silliness
The nostalgia for the present.
The longing for a time that ended just as you learned to love it 💝
The reality that you can’t remember the exact day that something beloved ended.
