There is,,, a lobster. On the way
There is a lobster somewhere in the facility but we don’t know where
This is not a joke btw I was supposed to receive and acclimate a lobster today but I waited around in the lobby for an hour before finding out that the Lobster Deliverer went around back and gave the lobster to the aquarist and he went out on a diving trip without telling anyone where he put the lobster. There is literally a lobster here somewhere and we can’t find it. Lobster location unknown.
Update he put it in one of the lobster traps tied to the pier. Which is fine, that’s where it was gonna go anyway until we set up its display, but I would’ve preferred to acclimate it before plopping it into the ocean. But the hooligan has been contained. There will be no surprise lobster attacks today.
Update 2 here is Thee Lobster
Something I found on Twitter that really puts things in perspective as a creator.
Nice sentiment but why did it start by telling us that our readers can die
i love when a character has something terrible happen to them and as a result they see themself as, essentially if not literally, a ghost. and so that means they only can (and have to) do what ghosts do, ie get revenge and then cease to exist. easy as that. but then halfway through this ghost vengeance they realize hey actually i might still be a human person. with human needs. that’s incredibly inconvenient, considering how much i’ve invested in this whole ghost thing
Sorry I wasn't listening to you, I was thinking about the Duke of Wellington's personal 11-foot-tall statue of nude, totally jacked Napoleon.
Twitter thread! (and yes Kate Beaton's "Nemesis" comic comes up)
Oh my goooodddd, im crying at Napoleon basically hiding it in embarrassment only for it to be put on display in the main room of his enemy
Napoleon: ... nice statue imma just *throws it into the basement*
Duke of Wellington breaking into Napoleon's house: OH BOY LOOK AT WHAT I FOUND–
What I wanna know is why Wellington put that statue there. Like was it some kind of power play to show off how he vanquished Napoleon, or did he just think it was a really nice statue?
Every time someone brings this up, I have to be the one to tell them that the statue was a gift to Wellington from the Prince Regent, and it wasn't looted. The British government paid around £3000 for a giant naked statue of Napoleon. Wellington had to put it somewhere people would be able to see it, or he'd offend the Prince. Love that for him.
shoulda been a blackadder episode about this shit
Are we not gonna talk about how Fyodor Dostoevsky had to listen to Dazai's sappy speech about his partnership with Chuuya?
I was having such a good time today! Was wondering what was gonna happen in the Cannibalism stage play with Poe not being in it so Chuuya can't just disappear, but then!! I had to learn that it seems like Chuuya!! Has a crisis over being the sudden leader, thinking Kouyou should be instead!! That he!! Speaks with Verlaine in the stage play?? Apparently?? And that during a discussion with Mori about being a leader, CHUUYA CRIES IN FRONT OF MORI BECAUSE OF THE MENTION OF THE FLAGS AND HEARING THEIR VOICES and ahahah the way that conversation in general can be read from Mori mentioning the Flags in the first place makes my head and heart hurt for Chuuya
I am not!! Okay!! Day ruined!!
get okay with being some level of burden on others, seriously
you know what’s a real burden? a person that is so scared of leaning on other people that they try to be completely self sufficient and you end up either having to help them indirectly to save their ego or they have to break down in order to receive help, both of which are so much more heavy to the person that loves them than just being leaned on casually
