@MrJimmy i may be about 45 seconds away from collapsing into bed, just watching things drift by on the fediverse

however

i don't know what the specific bit you're wanting advice on

but this is about 5 "and then..."s past when i would be telling someone who received this behavior from a romantic partner to block this person, consider looking into restraining orders, and start documenting incidents of abuse and evidence thereof for later use.

seriously though, the formula of the essence superlast liquid eyeliner is fantastic. 4 bucks, liquid eyeliner, black as night, will not fucking budge, your skeleton will be found with eyeliner still long 200 years after we die in a fallout-style nuclear apocalypse etc etc,

but the applicator!!!!!!!!

is just!!!!

this NOODLE!!!!!

I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT AT FUCKING ALL AND IT DRIVES ME MAD

eventually it would be baller to use to coat my vampstamp but like. no

why noodle

@AudreyJune i tend to use liquid brushy liners, but the one i found that i'm probably never going to stray for lol was on recommendations from, like, the one Booty Gooroo i watch on youtube - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jI2-LgFyxbQ is her overview of 'best drugstore eyeliners'.

i can verify that Essence has some shockingly good formulas (i just don't particularly like the one i got from them because the applicator is? it's like??? ricearoni noodle??? i just use the physician's formula booster eyeliner instead)

@InspectorCaracal @monorail i think i saw it on tumblr and it also explains why most mushroom kingdom citizens are just like "lol, there goes that bowser again"

i know the real answer is "they are not in dire panic because it's a g-rated family-friendly vibe" but i like to think all those mushroom dudes are just kinda smiling and nodding as they humor the obvious roleplay going on

"shh don't break character, think of our low tax rate and excellent public services including dental" "ok ok"

@monorail bowser's endgame is participating in a happy and consensual polyamorous triad, fulfilling the kidnap-and-rescue kink of the other two triad members

...

i mean that's the only way i can make sense of it

(note: have never played a mario game)

terrible picture but i actually!!! cleaned up my bathroom counter today!!!!!! my makeup isn't just in ONE GIANT PILE IN A BASKET but i actually have it in.. drawers and shit...!! AND my new brush set came today! so i'll be able to replace my ten-year-old e.l.f. brushes lmao

@madness thank you positivity Cthulhu

honestly the main differences between canon vader and masquerade!vader are thus

canon vader: is a dumbass and human dumpster fire

masquerade!vader: is a dumbass and human dumpster fire, but is aware of this, and largely unable to change these facts. alternates between quietly screaming into his own hands about this state of affairs and dumping some more gasoline on to things because may as well be a brightly burning trash fire we here for a good time not a long time hashtag yolo

i'm so proud to have glimpsed a darth vader rp account on berries, roleplaying him with the characterizations of "utter dumbass" and "human disaster"

truly, i have glimpsed a wondrous sight of one of my tribe, my very own people, in the distance

which is to say

@levels_check READY THE FUCKING GLITTER GUNS AND ARM YOURSELVES WITH YOUR FEATHER BOAS, WE NEED TO TURN THIS AROUND FOLKS

@Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online i have to admit ATLA comes immediately to mind but that's more like

8 or so years from now

more serious though, i actually went to college with the author of https://www.amazon.com/Hands-Up-Breanna-J-McDaniel/dp/0525552316/ref=asc_df_0525552316/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=266017953088&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=18388431274534955515&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9011071&hvtargid=pla-621563065857&psc=1 and she is now sweeping through a bunch of awards for it! i'm still friends with her on fb, even though we didn't really ever end up firmly in the same friend group, because her activism is so heartening to see.

@hairynoodlelegs i feel like "undefineable Taako essence" is an essential part of the character, and if he were here, he would very much approve about the eternal search for Taako je ne sais quoi.

(the group is also a social venue for casual chatting, which means that if you measured how much a goof is impeding other people's use of something... it's not actually going to be very much. the service and motivation for the group is shooting the shit. it's not primarily for official information, or community support, etc. it's small talk. so if the small talk turns goofy for a day, there's not going to be a lot of stuff that people suddenly find themselves frustrated they can't do.)

another example of A Good April Fool's Goof imho:

rufflechat, a lolita fashion facebook group, has temporarily renamed itself... trufflechat

with the base joke of "suddenly, MUSHROOMS" done, it invites everyone to come play in that fungi-based space. it opens up a platform for everyone else to run with that and create their own jokes, parodies, satire, etc. and that's exactly what the community has been doing!

so in conclusion i think Travis of those McElboys has summed it up best:

"I do not prank. I believe the best kinds of jokes are the ones everyone is in on and when everyone is laughing together. Let’s all be kindly foolish and be foolishly kind!"

don't prank. instead, goof. don't prank somebody. instead invite them to come laugh with you and play in the space pshooowww https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2f9bz5_2dM (ok wrong mcelboy but still counts) PLAY WITH UUUUUUS~

ultimately when people say 'prank' they think of mean things, and i can agree with that connection. a prank is something you play on someone.

a goof, however, is something you do including someone so that they can come laugh too.

down with april fool's pranks, up with april fool's goofs, imho.
