Bullying, school shootings, Columbine, pre coffee rambling 

you ever sit down and think about how schools overcorrected on the bullying thing so hard without actually teaching kids not to be assholes or how to be accountable and instead just implement across the board zero tolerance policies that equally punishes everyone involved regardless of which side of the conflict they were on so instead what's coming out is a generation of people who don't understand the difference between bullying and a community self policing dangerous people out of the crowd (notably the Columbine shooters who the adults tried really hard to present as innocent loser babies when actually in the past decade we've been finding out they were actually the bullies and people were terrified of them), and also helped to foster the sense of violent entitlement of bullies and ultimately school shooters

joke font that kerns and make ligatures perfectly for the all standard lipsum/pangram texts, but all over the place for anything else. Upside down, in the margins, different script, you name it

Images, fantasy creatures, eye contact 

today, a paladin on a hippogryph challenges a devil, and two monsters, a tanuki and a doppelgänger (I really want a playable tanuki in games!).

Images, fantasy creatures, bloody violence, eye contact 

today so far. Was reminded that Zatoichi movies existed so some overtly violent Edo period iajitsu. And, three shape changers from Werewolf the Apocalypse (were coyote, were lynx and were cougar).

Images, fantasy humanoids, eye contact 

today, rogue and fighter tackle an ettin (I tend to default to older style tachi and yoroi) and drow assassins stalking their quarry.

It's been a while since I made regular use of BitTorrent stuff, but the need has once again risen. So I ask, friends....

What Windows BitTorrent clients are folks using?

How the fluoride rinse label identifies its flavor: "Caramel".

How this pony identifies its flavor: "Mrs. Butterworth's armpit".

Ever felt the need to download part of a github repo from an arbitrary point, and been frustrated that the site only offers download options when it feels like it?

Enter the github URL here, and it'll package up the tree at that point:

This is what I get for allowing the ALTTP randomizer to randomize the palette.

It's the Barbie in Hyrule playset!

Image, wolves/foxes eye contact 

today are studies from photos, trying to see how skull structure fits together under the surface, but I also know most everyone likes wolves and foxes.

have you ever considered that because the plot of The Matrix relies on taking a pill in the first place, the movie simply would not work if Neo were a cat?

@g1comics love this episode ngl

trans allegory as hell

spike: i'm gonna try being a real dragon!!

chronic illness 

The first thing you're warned about by others when you develop a chronic or long-term illness is that people will forget you.

They don't mean to. We call them social cues for a reason. People often need a hook to get to thinking about someone, an excuse to contact them. We can all kinda keep up with injuries or acute illness because there are known dates and timeframes involved. Here's when to send flowers, here's when to drop off food. When you ask how they're recovering, you expect some sort of motion.

When you're sick on a more long-term basis, I guess you stop reaching out because you run out of things to talk about... "that fresh pillowcase sure was nice," "I liked today's third random movie better than the fourth." It's difficult to make new friends or sweet-talk existing ones into new, easier forms of communication without the energy to connect over a shared interest or ability to sustain a real-time conversation. You want company and friends, but it's hard to get people to engage open-endedly and asynchronously. They'll think you are tired and want to be left alone. But what you'll want is comfort and certainty in your connections.

Anyway I have no real point; it's just sad and it's universal. And a lot of people with chronic illnesses are still on full lockdown and lonely or have newly become ill without the benefit of the social support they'd ordinarily have to adjust to drastic changes in lifestyle or ability.

If you are lucky enough to be healthy and want to do something really awesome for someone who isn't, put someone you care about who you know is ill in your calendar and reach out consistently. Send them regular little notes about what is new with you, send uber eats to their door with breakfast on weekends, suggest something for their reading list or just send them some books if they're able to read comfortably, ask if you can pick up anything for a hobby they can still enjoy while you're out, send them a copy of the photos you take that are fun or pretty that you're not putting up anywhere.

Anything. Just... make it recurring. Each text or DM or "I saw this and thought of you" is a treasure.
