There’s something inherently funny about her floating naked in Lightning Space, judged by the shadow elders.
Carrotholics
You know I heard they were Carrotholics in a comment on a different page and I couldn’t tell if it was a play on Catholic or Alcoholic. I guess now I know,
it really is next to impossible to write realistic sibling dialogue, I just passed my brother on the stairs and instead of greeting each other like human beings I said ‘born survivor’ and he said ‘youtube rewind. let’s set it to rewind.’ like you ain’t gonna find that shit in a novel
aw man writing siblings is so wild because sometimes you just can’t portray it
me and my little brother don’t even greet each other - if we pass each other on the stairs or in the corridor, we jump into ridiculous fight stances then feign karate chopping and slapping each other (stopping just before we make contact) whilst making “HIIIYA” and “POW” noises for a solid 30 seconds, then silently walk off and continue what we were doing
and then sometimes he’ll either just do the Had To Do It To ‘Em pose when I enter the room or dab as a greeting
exactly! I have three younger brothers and the original post was just about the oldest, the middle one and me usually do some kind of elaborate dab also, and a lot of the time when I see the youngest I just yell his name like a wrestling commentator…siblings have a different language
Last night I went up to my brother and said “Are we snakes?” by which I meant “Do you want to go to steak and shake for burgers at four am?” and he responded “Death is coming.” which I understood meant “Yes, but I’m tired so it’ll have to be earlier.” and somehow, without any further conversation, we both wound up in the car going to steak and shake at two am.
If you sibling long enough your conversations become divorced from human language entirely.

you should never date someone for the sake of dating someone. you should be good friends, if not best friends with your partner. if you cant go to your partner for personal advice, if youre afraid to call your partner out on something, if you cant laugh and have fun with your partner, or if your conversations are only ever performative affection, you don’t have a good relationship

you…. you do realize they NEED these terms…… so that they can host images……. and let ppl see what you send……… right…………
Incapable of holding all knowledge, I did not! I was hopeful someone might be clear it up but I was also hopeful that it was possible to be polite about such things. Can’t win all the time, I guess!

royalty-free - They are not paying you to use their service to host your content
sublicensable - so they can have a 3rd party (like Amazon EC2) do the actual hosting, or provide another service with that content, like chat bots, giphy, etc.
worldwide license - They don’t have to geolock it

I hope that helps. Legalese can be a little bit daunting but if you know what to look for, like nonexclusive and “
