You know what would be funny?
If Pacifica unintentionally became somewhat friends with Fiddleford.
Like at first he's just known as the hobo she had to hold hands with during the whole Bill fiasco. And then he becomes the guy who bought her parents house. And Pacifica not even thinking about would sometimes walk by her old house because it was her home originally for 12 years. And Fiddleford he'd notice her stopping by and looking at the home from time to time and then one day he's outside and he sees her walking towards the gate.
Fidds doesn't hesitate to call out to her, startling her and Pacifica sees him and she gives him a look that's supposed to be unwelcoming but it's hard to take her seriously when she's blushing from being embarrassed at having been startled. She'll huff and stick her nose up in the air and dramatically storm off in an effort to save face and as she's walking away Fiddleford calls out-
"Stop by again sometime Pacifica!"
And she stops, whirls around and snaps-
"As if old man!"
But despite her saying that, Fidds once again finds her coming back around. And he humors her, getting reactions out of her and finding her amusing instead of intolerable. This continues on and then before Pacifica and Fiddleford realize it, he's invited her inside and they continue their strange friendship. Fiddleford learns that Pacifica's pretty smart and kind despite her snarky and uppity attitude. She just hides it beneath a mask of "I'm better than everyone."
And Pacifica learns that Fiddleford isn't just the crazy town weirdo. Instead he's a genius and to her surprise, beneath his somewhat timid, polite, nature he's got a dry sense of humor and hidden snark under the surface. He's also incredibly sharp and keeps it up his sleeve as his ace.
They bond over the snark and jabs, and they teach each other things without realizing it and for awhile it's this tentative thing till one day Pacifica shows up on Fiddleford's doorstep. Looking miserable and red eyed and Fidds he doesn't hesitate to bring her inside, his dad alarms kicking in much like how they do with Tate. He doesn't say anything, and she doesn't explain it. But an unspoken barrier has been crossed and neither of them mind. They don't knowledge it, mainly for Pacifica and her refusing to do so.
But Fidds doesn't mind it. In a way she reminds him of his son, with the way she handles things. Pacifica would tell him in her own time, and Fiddleford was more than patient with her taking her time.
Afterwards they're basically in a strange mentor/mentee/paternal/unspoken adopted daughter kind of deal.
Might fuck around and accept the things I cannot change
Can't express how stress free being open minded is.
Some lesbians use he/him? Oh cool.
Some people have people inside their head and sometimes it's fictional chars? Sick your brains like a pirate ship they're all working to run.
Some people like being treated like a pet dog? Bark bark bro.
Being fat isn't unhealthy but a perfectly normal type of body to have? Kinda beautiful how different we can all be.
Something doesn't make any fucking sense? Cool an opportunity to learn. And even if I can't figure it out it's cool we still have mysteries today.
Was anyone going to tell me that the Spongebob Musical was on Paramount +, or was I just supposed to find that out at 12:30 AM on a Tuesday?
Honestly, the first picture of the armadillo bear made me think of Avatar

Amazon and Audible made it into their policy that you can return ebooks and audiobooks and get a full refund.
They actively promote this, making their book shop into a book lending service, de facto a library you subscribe to. That’s their business plan to encourage subscribtions.
The dirty thing, however, is that Amazon and Audible are making the authors pay for each refunded item. They will detract money, income, royalties, from the authors’ account. They’re not hurting from the refund, the author is.
Look, no-one is saying you’re not allowed to return an item if you’ve read the first 50 pages or listened to the first 45 minutes. Maybe the style is not your thing. Maybe you don’t like the narrator’s voice. Maybe the quality of the writing drops severely after chapter three. Go ahead, if the product is bad, return it.
What I’m talking about is that no one should be able to listen to a ten-hour audiobook or read through nearly an entire novel and still get a refund.
Most of the readers don’t know who’s paying for this business plan. It’s not Amazon and Audible, they’re still keeping your subscription money. It’s the authors.
Spread the word.
They are pulling Infinity Train ENTIRELY from HBO Max, along with more than 20 shows and movies (predominantly animation) as early as this week so if you’ve never watched this brilliant, groundbreaking series now may be your only chance until it disappears from streaming. Forever.
They will not be returning to the new merger app between Discovery and WB at all. They are GONE.
That tweet is from the creator of Summer Camp Island, who apparently learned about this decision from a fucking news article. David Zaszlav doesn’t see “kids’ programming” (read: the entire animation industry) as a viable pathway for his new app, so prepare for more cancellations. I would not be surprised if Craig of the Creek, Primal, Young Justice, or any other shows from Cartoon Network or Max Originals are suddenly axed from streaming this year. Absolutely infuriating and unjust for anyone that champions the artistry and importance of animation as a medium to tell stories. I am furious.
Make some noise about this on Twitter if you can, many folks in the animation industry are understandably furious and terrified for their careers.
