I feel like people need to appreciate human and monster relationships more. There’s such potential for allegory there, but also just like… fun. It’s fun. But it can also be meaningful.

Praying that I’m blessed with the antiques roadshow discourse next ❤️❤️

Tumblr has an algorithm, the only difference is that no one knows how it works, not even staff

Minor Map-Making Tips

I’m super not an expert, but here’s some stuff I bear in mind while designing maps for our RPG setting.

Rivers run away from the nearest high ground/mountain range towards the ocean. As they approach the ocean they usually (but not always) get wider and slower.

Deserts are usually not near large bodies of water unless something (possibly divine or human intervention) has catastrophically affected the soil or there is a mountain range in between keeping the clouds away

Ocean currents can justify some pretty weird temperature effects, e.g. why Hawaii is very close to the equator but is not miserably hot; it’s surrounded by hundreds of miles of cool open ocean that sucks up the heat.

Colder temps = coniferous forests (pine and fir), not deciduous (leafy green boys). They handle the cold better. Forest takes more humidity than grassland to survive, but also creates humidity once it’s established, so an area can lose its forest and be unable to bounce back.

Cities are usually built near sources of transportation or freshwater. A big river is both, even inland, a place where two rivers meet is even better (e.g. Pittsburgh), and the place where a large river meets the ocean is everyone’s first choice for a city even to some extent in modern times and definitely in pre-industrial times.

That said, Tolkien’s maps make no sense and Lord of the Rings was still wildly popular anyway, so… don’t stress too much.

The worst thing in the entire world is when you’re sweeping a big pile of dirt into a dustpan and it leaves that little coke line of grit behind. No matter how you position your pan or your broom and no matter how many times you sweep over it your outcome cannot change. As immovable as fate. I hate it so

unfriendly reminder: this is a sex worker positive space. I will not tolerate the disrespect of sex workers here, and if you cant agree with that without a doubt then you're not welcome here.

Amazon Is Reportedly Considering Buying Out AMC Theatres

AMC is on the verge of bankruptcy.

When I was little my mom’s meatloaf was my favorite food. But ONLY her meatloaf. I didn’t like anyone else’s, and she told me that she would teach me how to make it when I was older. And when I was like 19? She finally taught me, but she told me never to tell anyone else and I was like weird but okay

Anyway, she was super fucking homophobic and abusive to me when I told her I was gay, so here’s the recipe

4-6 lbs of Hamburger/turkey burger

1 pk onion soup mix OR ranch mix

1 TBs ketchup

1 Tbs spicy brown mustard,

1 Tbs bbq sauce

1 Tbs steak sauce

1 egg

mix, shape into a loaf in a big pan, and bake at 350 for 2 hrs (maybe 2 and a half if you’re feeling dangerous)

You can get almost all of these ingredients at the dollar store, and have leftovers if it’s just you. The leftovers make great tacos if (taco seasoning is also like a dollar). Enjoy your revenge loaf
