    Once you get out some distance, you know you’re in this little boat and the only way you’re getting back is by your own strength. See a whale breach and you’re like fuck, the ocean is big, the waves are big, there’s a big old tail of a monster just hanging out over there.

    You’re nothing to the ocean, the weather and the animals that live here. The current shifts, the wind changes or you get a cramp in your shoulder and all of a sudden you know you aren’t making it back by sundown because you cut it too close. The kayak will be fine in open water, it can take waves easy, it’s getting jammed up on a rock or a log you didn’t see against a current that can be hairy.

    You could head out to a new spot on a whim only to realize the riptide shifts hard with the tide and for some reason you’re going sideways fast. Or something hard bounces against the bottom of your boat and you have no idea what because the water is 80ft deep there. It’s probably a submerged log, but the water’s dark and you’re alone so your mind goes places.










  • Not enough big magic god special effects was a complaint. Like fuck, I’d rather have solid storytelling and good characters - which Kaos had.

    And the thing was I was putting off watching it until I heard about a second season. I don’t like to get into new shows anymore unless I know they’re going to last, especially when there’s so much to watch already. I just finished it the other day and then I see this, breaking the forth wall for some greek god style irony.


  • First we will form a committee that monitors and tracks posts for subject matter that may be political. There will be extensive lists of what is acceptable and what isn’t, topics that will be debated at length every week.

    Then, roughly two months into NoPo days, a tampon v pad debate between a childfree estate lawyer and a closeted scentsy sales rep with a breeder fetish will spill over into other instances, inflaming users to pick sides. Both women will become icons on their respective feminine hygiene products until they are both viciously doxed and swatted by opposing communities.

    One week after, NoPo days will ban any words related to period protection and thus incite a backlash from lemmy feminists and allied persons.

    The committee will be fediversally disbanded only ten weeks into NoPo days and it’s members will be forced to make alt accounts in dishonor.
