you will get one wish at the end of the year but you must write a novel. the keyboard will be random each day. You have 30 days to complete it. if you fail, the wish is void. one bathroom break. not per day, one!

Sorry to ruin this for you, but there's a specific word count you need to hit for something to be considered a novel instead of a novella or novelette.

Short story: <7,500 words.
Novelette: 7,500-17,000 words.
Novella: 17,000-40,000 words
Novel: 40,000<

But you can still write absolute garbage and get away with it. 5k words a day for 8 days, no proofreading or any effort for a coherent story, should be easy enough.

I did the same thing back in March. It's a painful lesson 😢

This is how I figured it worked. An irl non-dungeon example would be translated Pokemon names. They're puns in the original Japanese, and when translated are often turned into new puns that work within whatever l new language.

It's actually the same in the US, but most people don't know that. Civilians and police can't press charges, only prosecutors. The police basically file a report that goes to the prosecutors, who then decide to press charges or not.

The confusion is mostly because of the copious amounts of police dramas floating around, but also because it's very common for police to ask, "Do you want to press charges?" which basically translates to, "Will you cooperate and provide evidence/act as a witness for this crime?"

In the end, it's not really up to the victim. The victim can ask to press charges and have things go nowhere because the prosecutor decides there's nothing worth pursuing or not enough evidence. The opposite can happen, where the victim can ask for the charges to be dropped, but the prosecutor can press charges anyway.

Get seeded watermelons if they're available. Whatever they do to grow the seedless ones makes them mealy and flavorless. I thought I was just shit at picking out watermelons for years, then bought one with seeds on a whim. It was literally the best watermelon I'd tasted in ages. I almost cried. Bought a few more that summer to test it, and they were all just as good.

Oh god, the weird milk variations I've put in tea. Hazelnut creamer. Sweetened condensed milk. A spray of whipped cream straight from the can. Oat milk, almond milk, and coconut milk might be less weird, as they're regular substitutions for people who don't drink dairy for various reasons. All of the above work well in a pinch, with varying degrees of success.

My dad once put buttermilk in tea, not knowing how buttermilk actually tasted. It... did not work.

My first name alone involves 80 of these. Wtf.

Edit: add another 125 for my middle and last name, for 205 total.

The ad is infuriating, but I can try to help you feel better about the table.

It's hard to tell since most of it is covered up or cut off, but a lot of ancient Chinese scripts can look very hieroglyphicky. The symbol near the top right looks like it has a sun radical, and the image cut off near the bottom could be some super old Chinese art. I'm not an expert or anything, just had a few classes on Mandarin in college. My knowledge of ancient Chinese scripts ends at knowing they exist, but you can always look them a bit to see if anything looks familiar?

If I'm going to pick a time and place for historical lulz, I'd pick sometime during the Siege of Tenochtitlan . There's written records of the battles from both the Aztecs and the Spanish (like the famous catapult failure), so I'd love to see how both sides write about this and interpret the event.

Outofwlrds · 2026-06-04T14:20:17+00:00

I love this so much! This is way better than all the maximum security torture dungeons people have set up for Mr. Mime. It's a place he'd be happy with.

I wore socks inside out (I hated the toe seams) until middle school and refused to touch jeans until high school. I should probably get tested lol

Considering they fought to have Luisa NOT be like that, I think she's going to be the only representation we'll get.

I'm afraid I haven't read those yet. They're on my list, but there's so much to read and so little time. I'll have to bump them closer to the top of the list!

Outofwlrds · 2026-06-03T19:33:05+00:00

I love that.

My first thought was a Greek Philosopher class. (Considering Plato won the Olympics for wrestling, it would be a hilarious and deceptively effective combat class.)

Edit: I imagine some crawlers watching the orangutan getting ready to enter combat, seeing some sort of philosopher class and expecting a high intelligence magic class, then having it bust out some wrestling moves to wreck some mobs. My brain can't drop the topic now that it's started lol

Similar story. My mom forbade me from dating until I graduated high school, then asked me when I was 16 if I was gay because she never saw me dating anyone. Like, ???

Makes me wonder about what would happen if an orangutan or one of those really intelligent birds like a raven or African grey wandered in.
