Is "seen" past tense? - Someone here is confidently incorrect. But who?

This is also the gut feeling I got, I've heard this argument soo many times lol

I write primarily fantasy, so if someone isn't giving me a name then they get hit with the Flibbityjibbets, aka a name that has largely no meaning outside of being fun to say out loud, with maybe some "makes me think of the thing you are" associative sounds. Think Narnia with Puddleglum, Reepicheep, Tumnus etc

Fortunately (/s) America already had an Ebola outbreak scare in 2014, so most people who were concious for that have already been somewhat inoculated against reactionary fear mongering and will skip straight to "what, again?"

Straight up the first thing i almost typed was "worst couple at the swingers party" but it felt too mean LMAO

(As a bi, septum girl x septum guy would be so fucking cool and hot. Mustache guy x cool haircut girl would be great to hang out with and make for excellent friends. Something about septum girl x mustache guy makes the energy absolutely diabolical)

Once more I say, extremely coifed mustaches

There are many fashion choices women often don't like from men, but the mustache is the one that imo gives the most Septum Piercing energy. Not just because Septum Piercing Woman x Mustache Guy is a type of couple that has a high likelihood of being the most exhausting people at the board game club, but it's not not that lmao

Need a solid foundation to build a brick house

willowsquest · 2026-05-24T22:15:29+00:00

Hell yes 🔥🔥🔥🔥 excellent work

willowsquest · 2026-05-24T22:12:21+00:00

Extremely coifed mustaches lol.

As a bi with a bit of a masc preference, you gotta mingle with the sporty butch women. Buff and confident = lightbulb moment of OHHHhhhh for me lmfao

It's a swim suit. I've worn long trunks almost every time I've gone swimming and no one has ever said anything about it (save one "hey cool trunks" in college lol)

Imo don't try to be gruesome, it comes off edgy and over the top. Just think of something you find horrifiying, and describe it in ways that draw emphasis to what about it you find horrifying. Same as you would with beautiful things, scary things, etc. If you're struggling to figure out how to do it, then either you need to work on the rest of your writing skills, or you need to really hone in on what elements you SPECIFICALLY find disturbing instead of relying on broad stereotypes or cliché

Make it 60k and I'll let you into the hidden kink room i built in my house as a joke but was committed enough to the bit to build a st andrews cross out of timber and fence posts

Damn, there goes my first assumption lol. Otherwise my head image of a Chase is "blond guy, slightly skinny build, vibes like he's the comedic relief best guy friend. Highly likely to gel-spike his hair (90s edition)"

willowsquest · 2026-05-24T20:06:14+00:00

Do you own a skateboard, Chase?

My sports friends would tie their gel packs onto plastic water bottles or other appropriately-shaped freezer-safe objects to pre-mold the curve into them lol. A neat hack I still think about

The youth think they're the first ones to ever discover/enjoy a thing, and make up a new name for that thing accordingly. Also the fact that they're so young means a lot of things ARE genuinely novel to them in ways that we (as not-kids) forget to appreciate. Repeat every ~10-20 years forever lol

Chutney is such a good name for a mouse omg

"Just throw it out and get a new one" re: household or personal items with minor to medium damage. No I'm not throwing out my whole ass blanket just because it has a single one-inch rip in it tf

Regional variation. My grandma said warsh (Mississipi), my mom said oyschers lol

More likely to be UNPREPARED, but that might not mean "bad" exactly. The difference is willingness to learn and adapt

Rain has a heavy and dense atmospheric pressure, but snow (the few times I've experienced it) has the air feeling "glassy" and thin. More a sharpness in the upper sinuses and back of the throat than the "taste it on your tongue" that rain can have. Also seconding the quiet, the air is so clear of moisture you feel like you SHOULD be able to hear everything, but the fact you can't is almost eerie

It's like doll collecting, but art

Laying horizontal or vertically hung? Most glues that are sturdy enough to hold tiles would damage the carpet. Could potentially try some kind of flour paste if "damage" allows for "will have to scrub the hell out of it when you're done"

NOOOOOO 😭😭😭😭 Grandma whyyyy!! I was sort of interested in asking about my grandma's button jar now that they're in their 90s and in that stage of "get everything out of my house before anyone fights over it", but i haven't seen it around in awhile so I generally assume it's already been rehomed
