âThat is exactly why he must be hanged, my daughter.â The Queen frowned, a glimmer of hesitance in her stance. The gathered crowd watched the royal family, unaware of the slight change, as they awaited the outcome of this debate. Who would win? Their current, harsh goddess-like Queen or their future, kind-hearted one?
âI thought we revered the Mech? Believed them to be higher than us for their ability to do what we cannot? The abilities gifted to them by the Gods? Perhaps this Mech simply needs guidance? Someone to watch over him and teach him to be a better man than he ever was boy?â

Can we normalize doing nothing, please?
I work with kids. These kids are at my program before and after school, and then some of them have sports/dance/music sometimes all of the above before they finally go home, eat dinner, and go to sleep. Then rinse and repeat everyday, and games and more classes on the weekend, etc.
Iâm all for extracurriculars, but this turns into the teen who is not only in the school play, but theyâre on the newspaper, the football team, and seven different clubs. In college they take double the courseloads, and then once they graduateâŠwhat?
They work themselves raw because they arent used to downtime. Theyâve been told they can always be doing something, and they donât know how to relax. This turns into the adult that has anxiety because thereâs nothing left to clean, the adult that desperately wants to watch that TV show but canât force themselves to sit long enough for it.
Then they turn into the moms and dads who spend all their free time ferrying their kids to extracurriculars.
Like, these kids donât know what downtime is? I told a kid I did nothing last weekend, and he looked at me like I was crazy. He asked what I was doing this weekend and I said âProbably sleeping, mostly,â and he actually gasped. Then he rattled off a bunch of things I could do, to which I had to stop him.
âNo, you donât understand. I plan on sleeping. Iâm booked.â
âBut you couldââ
âNah. Iâm just gonna rest.â
It was as if I had said a bad word or something. I asked what he does when he gets sick, and he says he goes to practice anyway. I asked him what he does if he doesnât feel like going, and he said he goes anyway. I asked when he takes time to rest, and he said when he sleeps at night.
Bring back lazy Sundays. Bring back Saturday morning cartoons. Bring back the idea of relaxing and soaking in your day before moving into the next thing. Bring back the right to breathe, the right to rest.
Bring back mental health days, and taking a break. Bring back taking a walk or watching a show or setting a timer to remind yourself to stop cleaning and relax.
If youâre running at 100% all the time with no time to recharge, then your battery is going to die spectacularly, and probably at the worst possible time.

Fic authors deserve more credit.
Story time: I started a book about 23 hours ago and just finished it. Also in that time I slept for 10 hours, spent time with family, was at work, etc. Anyway, I enjoyed the book (Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda). But it felt like it flew by, so after I finished I looked up the word count because what are pages? Pages are meaningless. I only function in word counts anymore.
The estimate I found was 58,580. My immediate reaction was âoh, thatâs why. Thatâs nothing!â But what a shitty response. Because no. Thatâs not nothing. Thatâs a whole. Damn. Book. An entire novel! And Fic authors regularly bust out 30k, 50k, 100k, 150k words. AND THEY DO IT FOR FREE. WHILE WORKING AND LIVING THEIR LIVES.
So anyway, thank your favorite fic author today because they deserve it. Because theyâre amazing. Theyâre the MVPs.

honestly tho that scene in the incredibles where mr. incredible sees the names of all the old super heroes that used to be his friends / that he knew from Back in the Day and how every one of them has been killed by syndrome is such a chilling scene for so many reasonsÂ
like for one, everyone he knew is dead at this point and has been killed on the same island heâs at now and two, its heartbreaking bc that means that almost every hero wanted to try out being a hero again despite the laws against it and wanted to try and help someone out and relive their glory days, only to be straight up murdered like fuck that scene is just so fuckin intense

I accidentally made eye contact with a mall booth salesperson and barely escaped a 25 minute long skin care demonstration where she tried to trap me in a sale no less than 4 times
