Empress of Mars: Undisputed @zebratron2084@awoo.space

@KinkyTurtle Huh? Oh! I can understand your concern. Don't worry, it's not made from turtles, it's just for serving *with* turtles! ^_______^

@catsnkittens@botsin.space Have you been introduced to the concept of "Tortitude?" 😹​

This is the only non-blurry photo of Peebles I have. Torties, in general, are notorious "this ones." 😼​

@treaclewasps Be warned that Ray Mungo, in particular is A MADDENING PERSON. His own foreward author, Eric Utne, kinda trashes him in it and complains that he owes him money, at least in my edition. XD

@KinkyTurtle To be fair, *most* nouns make perfect sense with "sauce" after them: white sauce, plum sauce, horsey sauce, awesome sauce, staple sauce, turtle sauce, space sauce, car sauce... See? It always works!

@LexYeen no

no hun i really appreciate it but i think we're past that point

which is why i have invented

THE NOSTRIL PORTAL

i mean honestly given the uh "openness" of some of these people's mental landscapes if you have any like old furniture or dead bodies or anything to dispose of while i'm up in there it's not like it's gonna make a lot of difference

all i wanna do today regarding social media is purchase several thousand copies of ray mungo's "famous long ago" and tom wolfe's "electric kool-aid acid test" -- my two favorite documents of how the counterculture of the 60s failed good and hard -- and go around shoving them up Discourse People's noses

@spottyfox Yup! That's basically Skinamarink 0.1!

@spottyfox also it dawned on me you miiiight be the sort of person who would appreciate this one:

(peg just straight up laughed at the trailer because that's a very peg thing to do, but it hit my "i'm eight and the world looks TERRIFYING" buttons superbly)

@spottyfox you seen pontypool hun?

@spottyfox OH SHIT HOT SKULL DROPPED

@xinjinmeng @JoyfulSkunk I've also described what the Hypnosquid "did to" Hladi as less like control and more like "light-speed digital romance." She wasn't brainwashed; canonically, she was seduced fair and square. She got time before her assimilation to take a good hard look at what she was being offered and realize she was getting a better deal than any Earthling ever offered her...

@xinjinmeng @JoyfulSkunk I have often descripted my core kink as "two Pod People fall in love, with their abductors and each other.."

@JoyfulSkunk One of the scenarios I always really enjoyed with my serial-consensual-abductee Hladolet was people white knighting her and trying to remove her control helmet... and her snapping at them, perfectly lucid, "HEY, I WAS ENJOYING THAT, PUT IT BACK." Had a few really interesting scenes about her "rescued" from the hypnohive and "in rehab," too..

@XyzzySqrl decent rather -- i claim drunkard amnesty

@trouffee To think that I used to make fun of Seattleites for not "being able" to drive in an inch of snow.

Oh, I learned the truth. I learned good.

@XyzzySqrl And yeah Kai's not just a hottie, he's ACTUALLY A PRETTY FUCKING DECEN GUY.

@XyzzySqrl People slag Lexx pretty hard, but it had some GLORIOUSLY bizarre ideas, one of the best space operas in terms of embracing sheer biological weirdness and states of otherness. Borderline biopunk, tragically underrated. I should watch those, thank you for reminding me I don't have 'em in my media collection anymore!

@Leucrotta What's Toppi? I totally sympathize about the cats though. I am very drunk and the cats have either been HUGE BENEFICIARIES of this or have had their evening naps SEVERELY DISRUPTED by a lumbering affectionate giant, I honestly can't tell which. n.n;

@JoyfulSkunk This practically makes *vindicating* amounts of sense darlin. :D <3 This is so much closer to the sort of mental play I'm into than what people usually do...

@Leucrotta And i mean... at the risk of being insensitive to people who have had reality-alignment issues, who generally have my utmost sympathy because BRAIN SUCK... there's something really really disturbing about being the subject of people's paranoid fixations. I've been there, from several fandom acquaintances who have centered on me for their ideations.

I can't fucking begin to imagine what it's like to be part of a community that's been part of those ideations for CENTURIES. If I ever took you less than seriously about this stuff I can not repent enough. D: D: D:
