Who wants to play “guess what film the kid is describing”? Movie 1: ye olde pirate film but they’re not pirates but they sound weird. The main character is a little boy who loses an arm. There’s some old men running the boat and a skinny one likes an ugly one. It was made like a hundred years ago

Thanks folks, I still have absolutely no idea what’s wrong with me today. I woke up feeling depths of despair and a level of panic that could only be explained by velociraptors hunting me. Still very discombobulated but apparently I’m at the silly phrasing stage so I guess that’s an improvement

I’m seriously struggling right now, i dunno if i got a bad batch of my meds or what but stuff ain’t good in my brain right now. If you’ve ever enjoyed any of the stuff I’ve made/written/drawn, would you mind giving them a like/kudos/thumbs up, that would really help

So not everyone, but… Blade Runner 2049. That’s not what the replicants wanted. That’s not what Roy died begging for. Pris & Zhora deserved more than that. Hell, even Leon. And Rachael deserved far better than dying butchered in a box in the desert. Also, get Leto away from those girls.

Whats a movie everyone fucking loves that you despise? It doesnt have to be objectively bad, you just objectively DID NOT. Heres one for me since Ive been on a Barbara Loden kick lately-

Barbara Loden in Elia Kazans incredibly florid and overrated Splendor In The Grass

Gritting my teeth through writing an upsetting chapter of a fic, promising myself that it’s all okay, I just have to get through this so I can write the REALLY upsetting later chapters of the fic…

Showing the 13yo kid Monty Python & The Holy Grail for the first time. Absolutely blank expression through the entire thing except the Gilliam animations. Nary a chuckle at coconuts for horses, no reaction to “strange women lying in ponds” or even a smile at “I’ll bite your knees off” 💀

The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me. It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."

I Work Very Hard, And I Would Like To Try Cake

By A Horse

Hello. I am a horse. I work very hard at my job of being a horse. When humans say move the heavy thing, I move the heavy thing. When humans sit on top of me and pull on my head, I carry them where they want to go. The main food the humans give me is hay and oats. But I am thinking it would be nice to have a different food.

I am thinking I would like to try cake.

Yes, yes. Cake. I know all about it. When humans eat cake, it is in glad times. It is the food for a celebration, such as when a woman becomes 47. I have seen cake on the Fourth of July. When humans have a cake, they stand around it and clap hands and smile and say happy birthday at each other. Sometimes there are beautiful markings on a cake, such as balloons or a pink shape.

Sometimes the top of a cake is on fire and a boy must blow on the fire with mouth wind. This is the scariest cake. I do not want this kind. But I will eat any other cake. Any cake that is not the fire cake that tries to kill the boy.

Please understand: I do not get money for doing work. I do not get to go inside the house. All I am either doing my horse job or standing in my pen or eating food off the floor. I always do these things. But I have never once gotten cake and I would like it very much.

I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children. I am more helpful to the farm. Children do not move the heavy things like me or let anyone ride on them. And yet they get cake. Maybe the humans will realize this. Maybe they will say, "You  know who deserves cake? That horse. That horse whose back we are always on."

Every day I dream about what it will be like if I get to eat cake. Here is what will happen. First, I will walk to the cake and putt my nose at it like hrrfff to make and stomping my hooves to make sure it is not a snake. Then I will trot in a circle to show that I am a horse and I am large. After that, I will nuzzle the cake to …
