Currently Smacking Down The Unexpected Return Of The Perennial Urge To Drop Off The Face Of The Planet

On the podcast today, you mentioned getting lab-grown gems somewhere. I thought you said “Gems Gems Gems”, but I tried to look it up and didn’t find anything. Where did you get them?!? I want the shiny rocks!

for your inner goblin

Trisha Elric told her son that he was the man of the house and that he needed to look out for his younger brother and this boy really took her words and internalized them so hard that he sacrificed a couple of limbs, made himself the government's bitch and threw away what was left of his already shattered childhood about it

i'm just curious bc i'm watching How to Train Your Dragon and i always forget how happy and calm it makes me feel. i mean, i did name my cat after Toothless the dragon. but i also love Lion King, that's my Disney comfort movie. and my Ghibli comfort movie is Spirited Away. watching any of these when i'm in a foul mood or my anxiety is high always helps 🥰 but i watch them just for fun too, not only when i'm in a mood. what about you?

I know nothing about my little pony other than a friend told me that Weird Al plays a character named Cheese Sandwich. Since this is the very extent of my knowledge, I have so, so many questions about what is going on here, and knowing just adds more of them

Ok NOW this might be the last one 🤣

oh ok. the dwarves in dungeon meshi live in a steampunk world. good to know. But i love the juxtaposition between elves using magic birds to communicate while the dwarves have straight up telephones

and the gnomes are hopelessly dependent on the orb

Well damn, if I had known all that, I would’ve watched the show sooner
