To be fair, many ships have wrecked themselves and been torn asunder on my collarbone

Just realized friends don't hug me as a rule. I guess I don't send out huggable vibes? How does one opt in to hugs

Mosquitoe bites are really just pregnancy cravings

It's not commonly known that Leonardo da Vinci's achievements were made only possible thanks to his pupil, Disciplus Simplex, whose healing factor made him the ideal guinea pig for countless inventions

(ice)scream queen!

TIL there is a method for blocking sneezes that everyone except me knew this whole time? And I only found out because I accidentally did it and got shocked by the sensation of my ears flying off like a cartoon character

'The quality of mercy is not strained--'
'Strained? Portia, you've cracked the whole pound of flesh problem. We just needed a strainer all along!'

Of course it would be second best, it's minus one relative to the original :D

Is my music richly contrapuntal and pandiatonic, or is it just that I couldn't be arsed to come up with a chord progression

Skeets! I meant skeets.

I need tips on writing better niche tweets, please

New game: which of these are microservices and which are just sound effects you can make with your mouth?

I've read the Beckett version the way it was (un)intended, every page out of order on loose sheets.

I'm the sort of person who when they hear 'Endgame' think of both the comic book movie and the absurdist stage play, in no particular order

Thursday=Purrsday?

Go back to the future, I think you dropped a sick beat there

I didn't know the song or this particular version! It's eerie

You're sounding a little... loopy. Maybe even... time loopy?

I love Mondays*

*the Japanese movie that came out recently

I love my current DnD group. The player next to me sketched a drawing of a super dramatic moment involving my character right after it happened ! So awesome

To say nothing of all the human DMs who are forced to not use maps because of actively hostile technology (ie MS Paint)!

True... plus this explains your 'no maps' policy as a DM: you just didn't have the functionality to handle graphics back then

Tale, have you been a chatbot this whole time? Nooooo

Anyone who thinks that 'Ask Ch*tGPT' is a valid response to someone's question should probably reconsider whether they are actually adding anything of value to the conversation.

I'm guilty of this lol... My totally original calendar for my totally original DnD setting was (still is!):

Joon'wary, Febru'uri, Morcch, Hathril, Meie, Joon, Jole'e, Horghast, Scepterend, Hokk’tover, Norr’vandren, Desh’ember

My word cannot do proper justice to the unhinged silliness (I was in literal tears from laughing)

My current IRL DnD group are basically a real life adventuring party. We started last session with two of them teaming up against a huge hornet armed with only a tennis racket and the butt of a novelty flintlock, and finished it with trying to pull a boot off of a cosplayer via a tug of war.

I messed up by forgetting to include the prompt:
"no cheating, your last saved celebrity pic is your therapist"

At first I thought 'hmm surely I don't have any celebrity pics saved' then I checked and sure enough

Megan Carnes @megancarnes.cool

no cheating, your last saved celebrity pic is your therapist

oh NO

My dream is to write for a spoopy indie animated musical series or something similar

(I think Southern Gothic works well though)

(Imodna is a terrible ship name but Laudnagen is worse)

Finished putting together my secret Critical Role campaign 3 Imodna song, woo!

Hehehe

(To be fair it's not super common knowledge, I don't blame you)

Euuugh no, gross (for context: turns out that guy's a terrible person)

Trying to have a DRY sense of humour (ie never make the same joke twice)

I saw a post from somebody who was trying to earn a huge salary by age 19, and their plan basically was to give up on everything that makes life worth living and get super swole while embracing the grindset and the pain 💀

Often when I get to the high point of my favourite songs, I realize it's going to end too soon and I rewind to the beginning to squeeze out more of that buildup

Annoyed by the 'Adult Content' thingy that when you click on it reassures you there's no nudity involved.

I've been thinking at some point I wouldn't mind partnering with another composer (creatively & professionally)

Oh oops, Prague's not in Germany, my obscure historical joke/pun is ruined

Nothing to Prag(ue) about :P

I like writing things in my own words when note taking, which led me to write 'this ephemeral nature of podhood' just now

Soon I will be able to say 'I'm skilled in orchestration' and nobody will be able to tell whether I'm referring to my music skills or my tech skills :D

Here's an almost (!) adorable beholderkin from a scan of Volo's
