That “Green Day edit don’t want to be an American … fuck America” post got American idiot stuck in my head. But the real problem is that I don’t actually know the words to American idiot and my brain consistently switches into the johnny test theme song after the first line or so
For reals, it doesn't even have to be a whole cat.
...That sounded wrong.
Anyway, I have a neighbor who rescued a frostbitten, bedraggled little kitten with a badly injured leg, he had to have some amputations done at the vet's and though Admiral Nelson has some battle scars, he's the dearest, cuddliest tri-paw'd, one-eyed, half-tailed thing ever, and sure enough, the judges considered him Best in Class for his personality and demeanor. He didn't just get a ribbon, but a little medal and he did so well at the cat show, that's how come my neighbor decided to get him formally certified as a therapy cat. Now he has a little vest, and alternately a sort of navy uniform one with a pinned-up sleeve, and when humans are dealing with orthopedic surgery, amputations, even just being unwell in general at a rehabilitation facility where my neighbor works, they sometimes get to spend time with him and often feel quite a bit better.
There was an awkwardness when a nurse had a tuna salad sandwich at the charge desk, the Admiral decided to leave his sleeping patient and go inquire if a deserving cat might have a quick bite between watches, a different patient spotted him in his naval uniform and was worried her medication was causing hallucinations, but apart from that, the little guy does awfully good work and is a popular fellow.
Anyways Shang Qinghua as the creator god of SVSSS is still my fav so here’s some little thoughts to feed y’all-
All his disciples that form a golden core gain the power to make very specific things which they love
Someone makes dandelions
Someone can make perfectly round stones
Another person can make little tea cups of stone
Not all useful but personal in that no one person can make the same as another
Shang Qinghua is overflowing with energy, just not like- qi energy
Hence why no one clocks him as a god
Qi wise he’s not powerful powerful
But his godly powers emanate the energy of the world, so it’s very ambient- only when he concentrates does one feel this sort of pressure, as if the invisible air is bending and twisting to form solid mass
He usually uses his godly powers to make melon seeds
He could use it to do paperwork but frankly he feels like it’s cheating and he just. Forgets.
He makes Mobei-jun stuff all the time tho
His king’s cloak is ruined? He fixes it discreetly. His king looks tired? Boom, magic calming tea. His king wants to fuck him- boom, lube.
Mobei-jun knows.
He knows so much
He knows Shang Qinghua is a god
He knows that he created it all.
He knows that he is the perfect man in SQH’s eyes.
He knows
He also knows that his little god is scared of thunder
And gets cold because he forgets his cloak
And likes to make little flowers when he thinks MB isn’t looking.
He knows that Shang Qinghua is kind.
Much too forgiving, much too gentle, much too scared.
So this is a cheat-sheet I’ve made for personal use to just have an overview over all the basic D&D rules. The first page covers most of the text rules. The color divides the sections more or less from one another.
The second page covers most of the important tables and stats, that you’ll probably need through the game.
Hope you like it and find some use for this! Cheers.
SUPER handy! I might use this for the kiddos in my beginner d&d camp this summer!
Well… It’s not a good idea per se. Their venom is potent enough to hurt adults and kill children. But the same goes for horses, and those are common animals to keep around.
Black widows are very docile. People have been known to handle them without any issue (which I have to stress I don’t recommend you do, because a bite can send you to the hospital, but it does illustrate how docile they are). They’re also very slow, like other orb weavers, so they can’t suddenly bolt.
As long as you keep it in an escape-proof enclosure, there isn’t really anything wrong with it.
EDIT: Horses are not venomous!They’re capable of hurting and killing people, but not because they have venom!!
I want to make one things very clear to every queer person making excuses for Republicans and arguing respectability politics -
There is no point at which we will be wholesome enough, respectable enough, pious enough, or common enough for these bigots to deem us "acceptable." And when I say US, I mean ALL of us, no matter which part of the community we belong to, no matter how wealthy or influential we might be, no matter how spotless our reputation, no matter our level of visibility, now matter how "normal" we look, no matter how comparatively "safe" we think we are.
If one of us isn't safe, NONE OF US ARE SAFE.
Supporting the mob that's running around with torches and pitchforks does not mean they won't burn you. The fact that you aren't in the crosshairs right now does not mean you're not on the list.
when studying medieval and early modern moral panic, this comes up A Lot. like, the shit monks wrote extensive, specific screeds against were Way More Weird than just…what your average sex-haver was actually doing.
"You can't be a lurker on tumblr." Yes, you absolutely can. I've been quietly reblogging things since 2014 and I haven't interacted with anyone in years.
