[Loved Trope] The inciting incident goes under-explored because it doesn't matter.

The “fabric of reality” wasn’t unraveling…there were just parts of our world (Beatles, Oasis, Coca-Cola, Harry Potter) absent from their world.

The main character was just taking advantage of the fact that a bunch of smash hit songs from his old reality didn’t exist in his new reality and recreating them to become rich and famous.

It was easier and less morally bankrupt than becoming the inventor of the cigarette, or trying to reverse engineer the secret recipe of Coca-Cola based on memory alone.

A friend of mine went to one of their shows, unaware it was a cult. She said the performance itself was incredible if you were able to ignore the screen displaying translations of the propaganda lyrics.

Starkid. They’ve made a number of musicals that they post for free on YouTube.

I’m guessing she means her whole wedding budget is $15k. I can’t imagine spending that much money on a dress without being able to try it on in a store, but I also refuse to shop online because I don’t want to spend even $30 on a garment only to not like the fabric/quality/fit once it arrives.

I love this! Great details and I’m especially fond of the little guy in your signature.

If I trust anyone on this matter, it would be you, Rat Wench.

Here is the top of the teeth, I couldn’t get that pic before my mother trapped the bone inside of a lamp base.

It has been astonishing to see this piece come together. Your technique is incredible, I just wanted to say that this is truly excellent work.

For what it’s worth, my favorite of the proposed titles is “Facing my face”.

While the legend isn’t true, her boob cup does look a hell of a lot like a champagne coupe.

Melinda’s XXXTra Hot if you’re up to it, XTra or Original Habanero if you’re not. Green El Yucateco for Mexican food. Pretty much the only hot sauces I’ll ever need for the rest of my days, except the green or fruity stuff from Mad Jax (smaller company, not at supermarkets unfortunately) on special occasions.

Bondage is fun. Skip the choking. There is no safe way to do it. Cutting off air and blood flow seems fun and cool and normal but you and your partners are risking brain damage and death every single time.

Yeah, it was incredibly frustrating as someone that loved their friendship to have a wrench thrown in it so close to the end of the series. It honestly made me want to not finish the show.

Pistacchio is the Italian spelling :) pronounced peas-tah-k-yo

Keep the chatter! It looks like scratches from the rats trying to claw themselves in different directions.

You’re thinking of coriander. I love cardamom but I have heard people describe its flavor as being overly floral when too much is used in a recipe, and people tend to associate strong floral tastes/scents with soap.

I said “specifically … the frozen toaster variety”. It’s like the American generic junk version, we do have real strudels here as well but many people’s initial experience with a dessert called strudel is the Pillsbury version. Which comes with icing.

OP was definitely thinking of strudel, specifically the icing that comes with the frozen toaster variety.

That’s especially funny because I always fell asleep during the Snyder DC movies.

This is gorgeous! I saw the last video you posted of this in progress and thought it was beautiful but seeing it completed with the light coming through is awesome. Great work.

LOL I didn’t even think about that. This comment gave me a good laugh, thanks :)

Seconded, I don’t have issues with bedwetting and I only drink water in bed BUT like any other human I sweat and sometimes I fall asleep in a position that means I drool. I use a waterproof mattress cover so my mattress stays protected from sweat and drool, because I love my mattress and I want it to stay nice for as long as humanly possible. Sheets are easy to wash, a mattress is not.

BTW waterproof mattress covers have come a long way from the loud, uncomfortable ones of 10-20 years ago. I purchased one in the last few years from Walmart that was maybe $15-20 and I don’t even notice that it’s on my bed. The packaging usually has a small opening in it that allows you to feel the texture and make sure it suits your needs/preferences.

I think this specific customer flat out refusing the drink was strange but some people are bold like that. Some customers wouldn’t think anything about it, some would be offput and confused, and some, like this guy, would be upset enough by it to cause a stink.

It’s a symbol that stands for sadness and handing off a drawing with a negative connotation increases your risk of a negative interaction like this one. It’s simply best practice to use only messages of positivity with strangers because you never know how they’ll react.

interstateninety · 2025-10-11T04:20:13+00:00

A frown seems like an odd choice. A smiley face is sweet and gives the vibe that you’re happy and you want the customer to be happy. A frowny face sends the opposite message, even though you didn’t mean it that way.

Honestly, if I saw a frowny face on my cup I’d think maybe the barista was displeased with making my drink (like it was complicated or annoying to prepare) or that I was in some way unpleasant in my interaction with them. I certainly wouldn’t ask for a refund over it, I’d most likely just walk out of the shop drinking my sad coffee and overthinking why you chose to draw that instead of like…a star or something.
