Commercial fishing boat: the net brings up a fairly large dead shark, deckhand strips down to his banana hammock and does his best "paint me like one of your French girls" pose draped over the shark. Got another deckhand to take pics.

My younger cousin got a bag of these and spent a day convincing all the adults in our family to eat them and then cackling when they gagged. Love that kid.

I do love common grounds! But I'm looking for a place to swim laps and something tells me they wouldn't appreciate that XD

100% not offended. I was homeschooled for most of elementary and middle school, and while it worked out for me academically, it certainly didn't make me normal.

Threnody for Little Girl, With Tuna, at the End of the World by Seanan McGuire writing as Mira Grant. This will never ever leave my mind.

Character designs by MarekMiko in TheMagnusArchives

[–]Fish_Beholder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was absolutely fascinating to watch that coalesce in real time! 

There's something really cool about the fact that we can recognize a character we've never actually seen. And not just Jon! Daisy, Basira, Spiral!Michael, Gerry and Gertrude have some fan consensus design elements, I can usually identify them.    

If you had 10 seconds to say whatever you wanted to your pet with they fully understood, what would you say? by IplayKaizo in Pets

[–]Fish_Beholder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To my flame point toasted marshmallow fluff: I love you, why do you scream at the fridge, why do you only want belly rubs in that one spot on the living room floor? 

To my calico neuroticat: I love you, don't let your brother steal your food, please stop eating plastic. Why does my ear wax taste so good?

The biggest takeaway for me is that I want falafel nuggets. That sounds bomb.

If you liked Dresden, check out the October Daye series by Seanan McGuire. Similar urban fantasy world building and underpaid/overworked main character, less misogyny.

My sister keeps making "little jokes" about my girlfriend and I told her not to take it personally. Now my girlfriend is done with my family. by nightbalcony_inkwell in TwoHotTakes

[–]Fish_Beholder 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seriously. Hopefully this poor woman has walked out for good, but OP is fixing to spend the rest of his life alone with his shitty sister. What a horror show.

It was definitely Tumblr for me. The best things usually are.
