  • So the cool s has no verified origin ans has occured in childlore functionally spontaneously across every demographic. It occurs in every nation with very little variation, regardless of language, and as far as symbols go, it’s remarkably complex to be appearing so consistently with 14 distinct lines.

    For this reason, my silly theory is actually that it’s the yellow sign. The symbol of the eldrich elder god of manipupations of the cthulhu mythos, the king in yellow, Hastur. Thus, among his mind warping eldritch knowledge is the true secret to writing your full name in the cool S font.






  • I’m not a fan of monster hunter and souls games. I’ve given them try aftet try, but they just don’t jive with me. Part of it is the jrpg aesthetic. I was never a final fantasy kid so it just doesn’t hit me the way sword and sorcery do. I’m not a get gud player. When a game gets tough, I get weird and I love games that encourage me to do things unexpected instead of hitting me with a stick for not doing the expected. Monster hunter feels very similar on that aspect, I get no satisfaction for perfectly executing a button combo, I get satisfaction from finding an unexpected gear combo.

    If they’re your game, l love that for you. I like seeing people have fun. I just don’t find it there personally.


  • Much like your point about line goes up, Americans are also taught that high pay and degree equal smart. At the same time know a high paying position can be gained through affiliation, decite, bribery or reputation and a degree can be gained by affiliation, decite, bribery, reputation, or simply being good at memorizing. All of those things can be accomplished by stupid people.

    In example, Elon Musk is a ketamine addicted nazi who mails sperm to influencers and is also the richest person alive.







  • Genuinely considered Boba Fett’s escape being the catalyst that sets the guy free. Could even retcon in that the only reason either worked was because of the other. Boba fett’s bombs could only weaken it because of the psychic battle it was already in, sith guy won the psychic battle because the sarlacc was distracted by the bombs.

    Could even capitalize on book of Boba fett by having fett play a reluctant hero role for the new cast, informing them of the sith guy’s plans because they were both connected through the sarlacc so there was some bleed over.




  • Absolutely the same. I grew up in a messy and unregulated environment and the first coping skill I learned was object blindness. If it causes distress and I can’t fix it immediately, my mind simply refuses to acknowledge it from that point on which is a point of contention in the house because it leads to me simply ignoring a lot of things.



  • While I suggest changing them regularly, I have a different reasoning behind sheets and towels. I shower when I get up and frequently before bed if I feel icky or my spouse invites me. So frequency of sheets goes down because anything it transfers gets washed off in the shower. The towel is used after the shower so anything it transfers lasts all day. That said, after the move in I adopted my spouse’s routine which is much more lax and changes towels every few days. On one hand I now have to track towel wash cycles consciously, on the other hand I’m not doing 3 times the towels so it equals out.

    Though now that you have me thinking about it, I would absolutely change sheets daily if it were easier to do so…
