Summary
“If we are lucky, the end of the sentence is where we might begin. If we are lucky, something is passed on, another alphabet written in the blood, sinew, and neuron; ancestors charging their kin with the silent propulsion to fly south, to turn toward the place in the narrative no one was meant to outlast.” - Ocean Vuong
Terry is the end of a sentence. Scary is the beginning.

Summary
All Henry wanted to do was sleep in on Sunday.
Apparently, finding his sons, defeating his complete jerk-face of a dad, and possibly saving the world from eternal damnation wasn’t enough for the universe. No, even after all that he wasn’t allowed to catch a break.
Some voice in his head that sounded a lot like Well, Actually was telling him that he probably should’ve remembered and was in fact a fool for not thinking about it sooner.
What was ‘it’? What was the big gosh darn reason Henry Oak was being dragged from the warmth and comfort of his bed to face a freaking blizzard outside?
Why, to go to church with Darryl Wilson, of course.

From Dungeons and Daddies Episode One: A Man and His Handshake
Darryl: “Hey Ron, what sort of music do you like to listen to?”
Ron: “Um, Rufus Wainwright?”
Terry didn’t get the answer at the time. Now he does.

Kunikida's Day Off by MementoMemoriam for aris_totle

Summary
“Kunikida is taking a day off?” he asked as casually as he could.
Ranpo had just opened a new bag of chips. He gave Dazai a confused look, “Yeah?”
Thousands of possibilities flew through Dazai’s mind. Was Kunikida feeling ill? No, even if Kunikida contracted a terminal illness he’d find a way to work thrice as hard to compensate.
“Why?” He couldn’t help but ask. This was a monumental event.
Ranpo raised an eyebrow as he finished chewing a large bite of chips. “He’s going fishing,” he said through a full mouth.
Dazai fell out of his chair.

Summary
“I know this is like, super fucking weird,” he says with a small southern accent, adjusting a bag over his shoulder. “Letting a dude you’ve never met before into your house and all. I swear I’m not like… the fucking Zodiac Killer or anythin’ like that.”
“I don’t really care,” you say honestly, overly tired. “Even if you are a murderer as long as you clean up all the blood you’re good in my book.”
Dave breathes out a small laugh, exhaling once through his nose. “The bar is too low, dude.”

Summary
"Why is this shitfuck pan-rotting pile of artifact-ridden, glitchy, nonsensical sewage that can barely pass itself off as a movie somehow a thoughtful criticism on the global rise of authoritarianism and well-put commentary on how young working class males are forced into the military? What the actual fuck? Why do none of the other reviews mention this?"
--
Aka famous movie director "D Strider" pays Karkat to review his shitty movies, and Karkat grows increasingly alarmed that they actually mean something under all of the mind-numbing bullshit. Meeting Strider, the biggest douchebag in the world, does not help. Also he keeps meeting this annoyingly smart human kid and his awkward/obnoxious but very hot guardian. These two things are entirely unrelated.

“The Doo-Doo Zone”: a queer abolitionist reading of the Glenn Close trial arc and the carceral imaginary in the podcast Dungeons and Daddies by Roselightfairy
Fandoms: Dungeons and Daddies (Podcast)
05 Aug 2023
Tags
Summary
The podcast Dungeons and Daddies, a roleplay podcast that uses the Dungeons & Dragons system to explore themes of fatherhood and generational trauma, includes a complex story arc in which one of the main characters, Glenn Close, is imprisoned and stripped of his title of father. I examine this arc using abolitionist scholarship, arguing that the trappings of the fantasy universe of Faerûn (and the inventions of the players) create a fictional scenario that tellingly represents the extent of carceral power in the “real world.” However, a queer reading of both this arc and Glenn Close’s approach to life and fatherhood reveals the potential of queer defiance to break free of carceral bonds and reimagine life and modes of relation.
