Happy Crowy Yule! It's a reall whose who of Yuletide.
I cannot stand the parodies of modern major general, they're overdone and simply not as good as the original. They've done them about everything, whatever topic, big or small.
And when i notice one of them my eyes will always start to roll.
The diction's always slurry when they rush the complicated words, and adding many fricatives will turn it so cacophonous. The slanted rhymes are silly and they keep just making more and more, please someone stop the parodies of modern major general.
The scanning of the lyrics in the meter is unbearable, they emphazise the syllables in ways that are untenable, in short in matters musical, prosodic and ephemeral, i cannot stand the parodies of modern major general!
Tumblr took down the original
So here
upgrade
I can’t wait till this is on my dash again on December 24th tbh.
ace attorney fans have one joke and
seanan mcguire writing Feed in 2010: there was a presidential election, and a perfectly normal and reasonable human was running against the personification of evil
me in 2010: i dunno that seems like a caricature, surely that would never happen
me in 2024: uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I am the holder of the dodgeball.
before anything else goes according to plan
Nope. At this point, I have endured four years of the shittiest possible adaptation of my work; I am not putting the dodgeball down until I get my zombies.
Dec 4: Remember that time we learned Clark Kent totally peeked at all his Christmas presents with his X-Ray vision? (Justice League, “Comfort and Joy”)
Because Clark is awesome and loves christmas.
remember that time we learned clark kent is a grown man who still believes santa exists
He’s an alien and a superhero who knows other superheros in a world with a talking telepathic Gorilla, ofc he believes, anything is game.
Thats because Father Christmas/Santa Claus totally DOES exist in the DC universe, and every year, without fail, Santa fights through Apokolips’ defenses just to give a lump of coal to Darkseid.
He W H A T
The latest addition to the DC Holiday Mythos is that Batman trained under Santa Claus.
And Clark is noticeably hurt that Bruce never told him.
God, I love comic books.
Ancient Roman mosaic representing the labyrinth and Theseus slaying the Minotaur. Surrounding figures include Ariadne, a personification of the Labyrinth itself, and an allegorical figure representing Crete.
“a personification of the Labyrinth”? damn that labyrinth was greedy af girl you’re already in the story you’re the setting you can’t just demand they write you in again but make you hotter

fixing this injustice by slapping it on your post
the modern specimen of a coelacanth that revealed they were not extinct was allegedly found by marjorie courtenay-latimer on dec 22nd, which may be timely for fishmas
By Fod, you're right ... we thought she was dead but she came back ...
Discussing baby’s future
They are both doing the "I want" chitter. They very much want to get up, but they have a sleeping baby cuddling with them. They must endure, but they will not be silent about it
Well well well, kitties. Looks like you want to get up but there's a little cat on you so you can't. Very frustrating situation there, can't imagine the burden of being held down by a little adorable kittycat. Couldn't, as the kids say, be me.
UNMUTE OMG
I feel I need context in the worst way, but also that no context could possibly improve on the glory that is... this.
Everyone needs to watch this Now.
IM DYING WHAT IS THIS BEAUTY

December 21st
the first iteration of the dream team is so funny.
imagine youre a regular new yorker and you’re being attacked by santas or bugs or devils at an art show and things are weird but you also can’t quite tell what’s actually happening (got to love umbral arcana) ? but you’re scared out of your mind until a drunk lady punches the scary monster in the face and the guy who’s clearly a drug dealer starts blasting fire out of his hands?? maybe he’s got a lighter and some hairspray, though he’s also holding a gun? and then a very nice and serious older guy is keeping everything calm and encouraging his friends and you think everything is going to be okay, especially because this nice sweet firefighter is making sure everyone’s safe. and you think he looks like mr march from the calendar!
then a massive rat man summons some crocodiles or a pack of rats or a cockroach that is unusually juicy and then broadway legend misty moore literally insults a monster to death whilst indiscriminately flirting with her friends.
and when it’s all over they’re acting like this is business as usual. and maybe you’re confused for like three minutes until you remember this is new york — who else would save you but a broadway star, a rat, a firefighter, a drug dealer, an alcoholic and kingston brown from uptown who helped you jumpstart your car three months ago
reminder to everyone to make breakfast tomorrow (for kingston brown, from uptown)
