Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

old teletext is basically the closest i get to woo

if there were a formal body of magickal practice associated with it i'd probably become some kind of ceefax witch

@Phorm *does a little jig!*

@001zlnv i thought a major goal of small insects was to stay OUT of aardvarks

can't trust what you see in the papers i guess

I've always wanted to write 1408 fanfic in which someone comes in with some nice fresh wallpaper, a little fruity incense, some pillow mints. You know. Things hotel rooms like. Just to show it they want to be friends.

"Five. This is five. Please. Stay a little longer. Please."

@Phorm I feel like I of all people *should* not have totally forgotten who specifically that is, and I definitely know I should be delighted that I have.

three fucking termites have flown up my innocent tiger snoot today alone

i hate it here *pout*

and nobody will bring me fried shrimp without asking for earth money first :(

@Soreth *bows grandly* 🐯​❤️​

Whatever tragic or joyful fates ever befall us, I want you all to know something very important.

Peggy is the best comedic partner I have ever had in my life and the best comedic partner I could have ever asked for.

There is no greater love than going in on your partner's terrible stale improv bit[1] just to see the smile on their face.

[1] Repeating "Flounder?" over and over again, after a painfully long list of hypothetical fish-scented incense varieties, until I finally got an "I hardly even know her!"

I did have to do some coaching, and she does step on my silent beats now and then. But isn't there's a little of that in every relationship?

it's late, i'm tired, i'm undercaffeinated, and my insults are getting kinda baroque as the evening wears on

still we must press forward

rafael cruz? rafael edward cruz? you're a jerk. a complete kneebiter.

(i'd offer apologies to hp lovecraft for cribbing his quote but the original is racist as shit and fuck that guy)

@Phorm Bingo, that's the one! I always thought that was a nice little touch, one of the many things that made me wish the comics were full accepted canon. And that all of EQ were injected with the Tommy Westphall Virus and left to drown in a snowglobe. >_<

@monsterblue Oh and because of your kind supportive comment, you get let in on a little secret: the first section, the pseudonyms? Excellent guide to spotting my sockpuppets on various social media.

@monsterblue I would love to see it! They're really rewarding, mine's like six years old now!

Hey, am I totally misremembering or was there some bit of comics lore about the Equestrians have a long traditional of musical magic? I seem to remember something about, like, Starswirl inventing rock and roll or something similarly silly/charming?

Whatever it was, I walked away with the impression it actually did a pretty good job of justifying Vinyl having turntables in a society that's barely got trains. But I have a history of wishful thinking about these things tinting my memory...

i like to link to this thing every now and then

it's basically the rawest glimpse you'll ever get into my interests.

it's... um... not conventionally interesting in the slightest :D

some mild potentially offensive content but shouldn't be anything too bad

@dodec I would love to see this turn into an actual fic, definitely!

@001zlnv The latter. Full rubber lining. Under a FURSUIT.

Yeah. Very safe and comfortable and definitely what we really do.

Zero research.

@001zlnv yyyyyup

fuckin' geniuses had people walking around in LATEX-lined fursuits and not dying left and right of heatstroke

did. not. do. their. homework.

is it just me, or is this just a really badly written sentence? "bio-active drug containing a virus" scrapes up real close to "not even wrong" in my book

you know, not like those totally biologically inactive drugs-- i'd hate for people to turn into zombies over a placebo

shit, now i wanna see a horror movie where a placebo turns people into zombies

i know i'm behind the curve on this but i love how they explain every goddamn minor technical detail TO THEIR FELLOW LEO PROFESSIONALS because they have NIL respect for the audience

i knew they did it. i had no idea just how low they'd stoop.
