Currently nauseating myself trying to work out what smell this cursed car air freshener could possibly be infused with.
Wonderful thread on the authentic participation of disabled people in Fantasy and Science Fiction.
Jesse Heinig@jesseheinig.bsky.social · 5mo agoSo a while ago I was at a game store and a guy behind the counter was chortling about D&D wheelchairs making no sense, much like the same complaints that ppl make about glasses and wheelchairs and such in Star Trek, and if you'll gimme a second here, gonna disassemble this nonsense 🧵 +
I’m reporting slum landlord and well-known fraudster Tom Nook to Trading Standards over his latest scam - he’s selling watering cans which literally blow up in your face after barely a day’s use. #acnh
