why do people stan Loki when the ultimate anti-hero has been here the entire time
Please, Doug Judy fits the pattern of Loki in Norse myth perfectly. He approaches the protagonists (Jake/the Aesir) with aid to their problems, his aid invariably makes things worse, but he always fixes the big problems caused by his actions and gets away scot-free (well, except, in Loki’s case, for that one time).
Concept: a D&D campaign that takes the game’s “most monsters are intelligent and capable of speech so that high-Charisma PCs can fast-talk them” conceit to its logical conclusion and turns every quest into a courtroom drama. Like, the local innkeeper wants those giant spiders chased out of her basement, but the spiders are claiming adverse possession on the basis that she hasn’t cleaned the place in literal decades, and now you’ve got to figure out how squatter’s rights apply to cave-dwelling arthropods.
Honestly, how could you not tag me in this, bro? ○°<
This has just always been a thing I’ve known but now I wonder if it’s common knowledge bc it should be;
If you’re going to a doctor about anything, instead of just describing the symptoms, describe how it has affected your life. ‘My arm hurts when I straighten it’ will usually get you ‘wait a few days to see if it gets better’. ‘My arm hurts when I straighten it, and it has stopped me from being able to drive or use my computer at work, so I can’t function properly’ will usually get you a lot more consideration, and usually tests or a prescription.
This also applies for mental conditions, including gender dysphoria.
Make sure your physician knows the effect that your condition is having on your life, as this makes it a lot harder for them to dismiss you. This also makes it easier to hold them accountable if they ignore a dangerous condition, should you wish to pursue legal action.
me, crouched down in front of my tomato plants, examining a pattern of insect bites on their lower leaves: i’m going to fucking kill whoever did this. i’m going to kill them for you. don’t worry, babies. I’m going to murder every single son of a bitch who ever got a mouthful of you. they’ll die screaming
my neighbor, who i did not realize was also outside, standing behind the fence: oh! okay. you’re talking to the plants. okay.
people who don’t own cats: cats are so aloof… they just keep to themselves and don’t care that you even exist
cats: hey! hey! hey! hey! pay attention to me! hey! why aren’t you looking at me! hey! hey! if you don’t pet me right now i’ll freakin die! hey! heeeyyy!!!!
