Cons of growing your own vegetables: There's dirt in my food.
You have been sentenced to death in a magical court. The court allows all prisoners to pick how they die and they will carry it out immediately. You have it all figured out until the prisoner before you picks old age and is instantly transformed into a dying old man. Your turn approaches.
After you gave your master the standard 3 wishes, you told him to leave the lamp in a place like a women’s shelter or a homeless camp. Instead he sold your lamp to the highest bidder and now you are determined to twist the 3 wishes to the detriment of both your current and former master.

I really do think dracula daily/re: dracula is the best way to experience dracula the book, because it adds an entirely new level of horror and dread that a book can never truly achieve.
Because, instead of simply reading through the book in one go, you have to wait along with it. You get to see Jonathan express his terror in real time, and experience the dread of days going by with no news from him, wondering what could possibly be going on in the time you hear nothing.
Like it’s a level of horror of the unknown storytelling that Bram Stoker never could have imagined and it adds an entirely new experience to the story and i just think it’s neat
what the "go outside and touch grass" sayers dont know that if you go outside and touch grass for long enough you cross an event horizon in which you become significantly weirder and more fucked up than any chronically online asshole can be. and they like those people even less.
