covid discourse 

absolutely wild the number of hardline “everyone is suffering from mental illness due to rampant abuses of capitalism” folks who in the past 3 years have abruptly pivoted to “everyone is suffering from mental illness because it is a side-effect of catching covid one time”

re: Wikipedia Haiku 

i legitimately cannot tell who is plagarizing whom here like Achouri has the earlier citation by several years and has this story published in at least two contexts but Skye Daphne doesn’t SEEM fake and has the backstory that the story was written by her and her two besties in 5th grade and her profile HAS A PHOTO WITH COMMENTS FROM THE BESTIES

« "Sword, parry!" Mirza cried.

The sword danced faster than lightning, all around the ship, knocking down all the arrows as fast as they came.

So many arrows were knocked aside into the water that they made a great heap floating right behind the ship. The Garda's ship ploughed into this and scraped to a halt with big scratches in its paint.

Now the Garda was furious. "If I want this done right," she muttered, "I guess I'll have to take things into my own hands."

Using powerful evil words, this time she cast a spell on her own two hands. Her wrists grew longer and longer, her fingers grew colder and harder. At last her hands had become frightful silver grappling hooks on long white ropes. »

which ability would you rather have in a zelda game? 

• can jump up and down in place instead of just jumping off ledges or directionally when targeting

• can roll into trees and walls to knock stuff off

life is built on death 

actually the fact that you can dissolve lots of shit in water is kind of horrifying

zelda spoilers 

also if you are up on the lore the Zonai associate dragons with courage which just lends credence to my belief that the Zelda in botw/totk resonates more strongly with that piece of the triforce
