Which brings me to the idea that has been bugging me, what name would Light have to write to kill Saul goodman from Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, would Light have to write Jimmy McGill or Saul Goodman? I didn't count his alias as Gene from BCS season 6 as I doubt it
I've been thinking lately on how the death note works fundamentally with names, it's confirmed that legal names don't really factor at all, since why would an ancient book follow the law of man, but rather how you identify yourself (I think) so that got me thinking of people who refer to themselves by another name entirely, not theiregal name, but a name known only to them

Do y'all every have that moment in your life where you just wanna scream and cry for discernable reason? Yeah I am experiencing that rn and I don't know why
As we approach college finals in the U.S. I feel it's important to remind people that no level of school failure is worth killing yourself over. Some failures have consequences. Some failures change the course of your life. But I promise it's not over.
If a career path you wanted to follow has closed because of your grades, it's ok to mourn. It's normal to be upset that goals you had are unattainable now, especially goals you've had for a long time. But you can recover. Even if you can't try again, you can find another path that's fulfilling.
If you want to keep forging down the path of academics, I'm rooting for you. Take the time you need to rest your brain. Remember that taking a semester, a year, or a few years off is normal and often healthy. Do what you need to face the next semester you take relaxed and ready.
If you've been bashing your head against the wall that is college and can't seem to make progress, it might be time to find a different path. No matter what people in your life are telling you, not getting a college education is not the end of the world. No one's approval is worth more than your life.
Every day dropouts and D students are living a life more beautiful than you could ever imagine. No amount of academic failure can take away the joy of being alive. If you're not feeling that joy right now, that's ok, but please hold on through this difficult time in your life. Things will get better.
This is specifically geared towards college students but definitely applies to anyone younger than that as well. This is not the end.
If followed, the only letters left are "o-p"

Where's the juice tho?
I wanna draw but my lines don't come out straight, and I keep trying so hard to make people but they don't come out as people, more like facsimile mockeries of the human visage, how do I improve?
I respect your opinion, but please explain as I am legitimately curious as to why you dislike Luigi's mansion 4

I claim mine to be named after someone that is not named Paul but insinuates that he is named Paul but is just in denial
fuck it. I'm naming all my factorio space platforms after a mutual. reblog to claim one
The decepticons are dysfunctional bc the head honcho is on crack, two of his subordinates are trying to usurp him, and is pretty chaotic
The burns are somewhat dysfunctional because they.... Yeah idk why but they just are
Cody Burns 🤝 Soundwave
Working communications and being the only reason their whole damn team hasn't fallen apart yet
Language is cool
I still can't get over the fact that "deli" is short for "delicatessen"
There are a fair few faux feminist statements I hate, but “We are the daughters of the witches you couldn’t burn” is one of them.
I agree this shit is cool
masks and helmets that hides someone's face in such a way that they become the face themselves my beloved
these are all creatures to me
Aro/aces will try to explain attraction and wind up with a theoretical model with dimensions that can no longer be graphed in Cartesian coordinates.
"Denial is a seductive mistress. And she's in my bed every night" has to be a great way to introduce the idea of being aromantic to people, so thanks for that!
i think one of the first times i realized i was aro(while immediately denying it) was when, a few years ago, a friend of mine kept hinting that she was poly and that she dates people other than her bf all the time. and she’s very flirty, literally with everyone, so i didn’t really think anything of it, until she started hinting at dating me.
and even though i was flattered and she’s great, like, dating her romantically would probs be amazing, i felt a little grossed about it. not by her. just the thought of dating with romantic intent. and so i played oblivious and pretended i didn’t hear any implications in what she was saying.
it surprised me at the time, bc here is someone i’m friends with, who’s funny and cute and very romantic if her bf has any say, and obviously attracted to me and was willing to date me, or at least fuck tbh, and all i could think about was how i needed to change the convo right now.
denial is a seductive mistress. and she’s in my bed every night.
I have been thinking about this, fish soup is ironic, what do I mean by that? A fish lives in water right? And we take them out of water only to put there carcass in slightly warmer, tastier water
Go forth my children
I would do it for free
would u trust him for one dollar
Fun fact: Cats rubbing themselves on u means they like u, so yes this is what I want
The allos don’t get it when I’m like, “attracted” to someone, cause they’re just like “oh, a crush” NO. ITS DIFFERENT I don’t want to kiss them or smth they just have good vibes so I want to rub up against them like a cat
Hm, I was pondering about the recent-ish trope of Adventuring Guilds (effectively trade unions for protagonists in fantasy rpg-inspired settings, which I’m sure I’ve seen in a bunch of things but the main example that springs to mind is Goblin Slayer to my annoyance but the Hero Association in One Punch Man has a similar albeit superhero-slanted deal), and how mechanically in the setting they exist to ensure x reward is provided for x amount of work/danger involved but in a meta sense are there so the characters don’t have to go looking for heroing gigs on ye olde Craigs Lyst or something.
It’s an interesting idea, similar in a manner to the many fantasy trope-tinged guilds in the Discworld novels of the late great Terry Pratchett, although an amusing idea occurred to me with the idea of trade unions for fantasy heroes.
Like, if there are unions to ensure employment and fair pay for folks clearing out dungeons, getting gnolls out the cabbage patch, stopping gnomes from going through your bins, and so on, then, logically, there much exist fantasy hero scab workers as well.
Folks that the local king or something brings in for lower pay on more dangerous jobs. Folks who are, say, completely new to the setting, out of their depth, and are thrust into a dangerous situation by a seemingly benevolent authority figure because said authority figure is too cheap to hire someone who understands the risks involved and asks more suitable wages for the role…
Y’know…
I relate to this on a level I cannot put into words
it all makes sense now
I love that Shovel Knight's actual, canonical answer to "why are King Knight and Spectre Knight the two easiest bosses in the main game when they're such badasses in their own campaigns" is that they're both clinically depressed when you fight them.
Pokemon SWSH - Allister Headcanons (General)
This is my first post and my first time writing for characters so please forgive me if I'm all over the place haha...Allister is such a sweetheart and I really regret not getting Shield just because he's not a Sword charater :(
Anyway, it's a given that he's really introverted.
His Gengar acts as a parental figure for him. Hear me out.
I don't know much about his family life but right now I assume that his parents weren't in the picture much. So I think Gengar would have taken that role for him.
Given that his best friends are ghosts, he never really learned to socialize with other people.
He's actually a really sweet kid, he's just introverted and doesn't know how to put his thoughts into words.
Which leads me to believe that he likes art. Specifically abstract art because it doesn't have to have a definite form. It's whatever he wants, and that is a comfort to Allister.
He would never show his drawings to anyone though. Only his Pokemon, *maybe* a close friend if you're lucky
Night owl FOR SURE
Loves looking up at the stars, definitely has a space dedicated to astronomy books and stuff
I saw this somewhere online and thought it was really cute - his mask is based off of Cursola :)
Gets overstimulated easily, especially during battles at the Ghost Gym. His pokemon would help him calm down and get to a quiet place after
Probably is at least a little into witchy stuff - has a small altar for little trinkets and offerings
Worldbuilding Idea: After an apocalyptic event that made the earth inhospitable, a civilisation is built around the worship and maintenance of a machine called "The Grand Eviscerator" which was originally used to turn biological waste to energy but was scaled up tremendously, now it is a gaping, churning machine that takes people and provides energy for the civilization to use
