Writer of the Please Don't Tell My Parents I'm A Supervillain series and a bunch of books that are awesome but don't sell as well. https://www.amazon.com/stores/Richard-Roberts/author/B005XOLGVU I tell a lot of funny stories. (He/Him)
LET CHICORY AND PIZZA BE HAPPY TOGETHER. Translated into nonshipper: This is a beautiful game that will break your heart and then heal it and lift it to the skies. Also I will never ever ever ever ever forgive Blackberry.

No idea where it's from, but it must have been from a stressful time several years ago. I found this on one of my drives I'm scrounging through and yeah, this is has been the mood lately, lmfao
Furries are like the Warhammer 40k Adeptus Mechanicus: It doesn't really matter if you find them unsettling or heretical because at the end of the day you still need one to make your life support machines work.
I’m pretty sure the idea was Myst references, but I love my topsy turvy writing exercises too much.
Brain, stop making an Ao3 kink list for Gnostic Genesis, please. It’s getting too long.
Without looking him up, how many people know who Seth is? Biblically?
This has been a major topic of Rabbinical debate for centuries if not millennia.
Cai@annenotation.bsky.social · 5d agoWe are relying on the Catholic Church in particular to make a lot of important arguments because it turns out they were the only people who were actually dedicating a lot of brain power to these questions the last 30 years or so.
Mystober 1st: So many people were CLEFT in twain in the Song of Roland that until the Renaissance heroes were only allowed to cleft their enemies in thrine. This is also why drawing and quartering became popular. There just wasn't any twain left. #MystOber
The book is Banvard’s Folly, named after the most famous painter of the late middle 1800s. ‘Thirteen tales of people who didn’t change the world.’ I HIGHLY recommend it.
John Oxley@joxley.jmoxley.co.uk · last wk.Said this before, but you could write an interesting book on the books/films/music that were huge in their time but rapidly disappeared from any collective knowledge. Only hardly anyone would read it, because they wouldn't recognise them.
Even in parking lots I can’t escape Nature! At least you don’t have to see the brilliant orange under its wings.
This is your reminder that Lilith left Adam because he was whining to God that he wanted an inferior helper, not an equal* partner. She left Adam, and refused to return despite threats. *Like Adam, Lilith was made from clay and thus equal in ability. Eve was made from Adam’s rib.
I believe my WIP might just pass the reverse Bechdel test, as it actually has enough male characters for them to hold conversations the main character can hear.
“The last Dark Kobold Queen decided to train an army of spiders to take over the surface. She actually did train them, then poisoned herself eating chocolate as a reward.”
At first I thought it was insane that this government form asks if a ‘drug kingpin’ lives in my household, but you know what? I bet some people check ‘yes.’
I just read a film reviewer call Fading of the Cries a 'solid horror movie' and my brain exploded out my ears.
Tonight’s lukewarm take: The Black Hole is a fantastic script tragically ruined by giving it to the wrong director.
It is strange to find out about a creative work that what I like is the editor’s vision, not the creator’s.
This is a dance off. If you see this, post a dance!

@nycteris.bsky.social I hope the root canal wasn't awful and that you're doing okay.
There is a demo out for the next Star Con... ahem, Free Stars game! But, in the most exasperating and authentic and entirely valid Star Control tradition, it's just the combat system. Might give us a peek at races, though.
Why is it this book where the characters only look like adolescents that they think/act the most like real teenagers?
@nycteris.bsky.social 16,000 words heading your way via a .mobi link on Tumblr! That's the way you like it, yes?
I'm enjoying displaying personality in describing how characters eat ice cream. "Mipsy closed his mouth on the multicolored lumpy, gooey madness like the most lurid of kisses, his tongue extended to slather over the pink and white globes, then pluck an orange blob into his mouth to suck on."
Can we talk about what a downgrade Wingull to Pelipper is Wingull, iconic, adorable, fun little guy, would let him steal French fries Pelipper, gross, bad eyes, weird mouth, where are your FEET dude, probably listens to Joe Rogan
Conan the Barbarian came out in the 80s so actually he was crucified on the Tree of Woah.
