has anyone done this yet
^funny because mute.
When I was in Kindergarten, near the start of the year, my teacher had us all write our names on thin strips of paper.
We took those bits of paper and linked them into a big chain, each strip made into a circle and sealed with glue, such that everyone in the class had their name form part of our "class chain". We were all connected.
When anyone broke the rules, if it was bad enough or often enough, our teacher would call the offender up in front of everyone, and have them ceremoniously cut the strip with their name on it, so they were removed from the chain, and the chain was permanently damaged.
Needless to say, this was intimidating and scary at the time, and absolutely horrifying and fucked up looking back, and I have no idea what psychological torture shit my teacher was on, but jesus
Gav’s Tavern Hi, I hope you like this. It is different from what I usually do. Also it was a lot of work.
Hmmm, I wonder why I'm having trouble getting my work done on the box full of distractions and all my best friends...

me having a normal time: well the weird time did have a certain je ne sais quoi...
a magical sword can only be pulled from its anvil by a maiden of purest heart. a young knight visits the anvil daily to make the attempt, crushed each time he cannot do the deed, yearning for a sign from the universe that he *is* in truth what he yearns to be. for the world to plop the gift of identity into outstretched arms. but of course, it never does. until one day, he has a chance encounter with a nymph of the lake who was once an ordinary squire, and he learns from her that maidenhood will not be given to him, that he must be brave and choose it for himself. and so the knight changes her name and reintroduces herself to the world and employs the greatest miracles of modern science to become the maiden she had always dreamed of being, and this time, when she revists the sword, she only can't pull it because she's kind of an asshole.
"what are your goals for 2025" honestly, to not kill myself but I don't wanna bring the room down lmao
