"How could he wrestle his emotions under control so fast? Henry still wanted to run and scream and eat a dozen bowls of noodles."

I have decided over the last few months that I will never actually leave my family to take the opportunity offered in this blog post and flex it until either it breaks or I do, so I am bringing it to your attention.

(warning: this is a blog post hiding a rabbit hole snare. I can tell you that upfront without decreasing its effectiveness as a trap. it's that good a rabbit hole if you haven't met Steve and his projects before, and also if you have.)

We just got a message on our Ko-Fi that says "Ever since I started using your ISP the dolphins who used to bully me have all disappeared. Thanks!"

We are delighted to hear that! Thank you for using Suricrasia Online {^wvw^}

@grainloom it can be different from that :) more like an obscure meme that not everybody gets, or talking about some niche topic, less like "only these people are allowed to read it".

But, yeah, the way languages are used and can be connected to lots of stuff is definitely weird. Humans are weird.

@grainloom As for the other part, sometimes, people don't want to post in English, or cant. When I'm tired, it takes more effort to write in a 2nd language.

And more readers are not always good. Sometimes, you don't mind having a smaller audience. Maybe fewer people even feel safer. Maybe it's just easier for you to express that thought in a language that isn't English. Maybe it's a pun that needs a CW for some reason.

And why English CWs can happen with that, well, see above.

@grainloom mhm one reason is: conventions, using what you're used to. Also, coming from Twitter, where I usually post in German: English words tend to take up fewer characters.

Plus, twitter is terrible for CWing, and language contrast can help marking a thing as a CW there.

So… I'd guess most ppl don't have logical reasons for that, but are simply used to it.

@lordminx mich hat die staffel vor allem gegen ende total mitgerissen, ach ach.

@lordminx ich hab btw gerade die erste staffel killjoys fertig und omg!! die serie hat auch total ihre probleme, klar, aber so viel tolles!

@lordminx optisch ist es nicht so hübsch, aber das Konzept hat schon was (sofern ich es richtig verstehe, die informationen sind ja eher spärlich – aber ich probier es gleich aus).

Bodily functions 

@ghost oh, wow.

Yeah, no, I have some kind of powder. Apart from maybe the flavourings, which are of course not listed by name, the sweeteners are the only things that look suspicious to me in this stuff.

Bodily functions 

Okay I love this weird flavoured stuff that makes water taste nice, but I suspect that it's some of the sweeteners (acesulfame k, sucralose, stevia) that are really messing up my digestion. So mean.

Okay, I will now go and do this thing, and then either wander around aimlessly listening to podcasts or return to my bed and do more not doing anything

I can't really get myself to eat anything that requires any effort at all, or to do anything that I should do, or to do anything to improve my chances of doing stuff (like bullet journal). I feel very very defenseless against the passing of time lol.

I'm very lost in doing random shit, but I really have to go outside now

Oh look, this looks super promising and can be pre-ordered now (I guess this is the paper book version):
