A highly valid viewpoint: In this digital age, it’s so easy for the boundaries between fans and creators to erode… while this can be a good and fun thing, it’s also important that creators don’t feel obligated to put their whole lives on public display. They have a right to their priva—
Justin McElroy: HEY everyone just a reminder that my VASECTOMY is THIS THURSDAY
this is the same man who did not mention that he was having another baby until the day the baby was born
One of the best things about Brotherhood? Every character is smart as hell. No one ever makes a dumb, easily avoidable mistake. Roy doesn’t fly off the handle and kill Maria when he suspects she might have killed Hughes; he looks into the matter to make sure, and then arranges an escape route for her when it becomes clear she’s framed. And he’s got such a tight-knit system set up with his subordinates that they’re able to easily relay important information back and forth without the enemy factions in the military catching on. The whole series is an ever-escalating battle of wits between the heroes and villains, everyone operating at the top of their game to out-plan and out-maneuver their equally skilled opponent. You never know if a plan is going to work, or if the opposing side has a countermeasure in place. It helps keeps the story barreling forward at a refreshing pace while keeping the tension high with every battle; you never know who’s gonna come out on top.
Idk I still can’t get over the time Roy “Cunning Plans” Mustang strolled into central headquarters and started cracking jokes about how the Fuhrer was a homunculus
…you know what, I forgot about that part.
Yeah, not your smartest play, Colonel.
Tbh I kind of love that part because it’s such a “fuck it, going for broke” moment that COMPLETELY flops and Fuhrer Bradley is just like hey Roy I see you found the Homunculi in the Government Fan Club we meet Tuesdays and Thursdays at midnight come on in you total dumbass
listen, intelligence and wisdom are two different stats for a reason. everyone may be a smart AF science nerd but theyre all a bunch of fucking idiots.
Apparently im one of the three people that the night manager enjoys closing with because im one of the only three people who actually does the closing job so we usually get out at a reasonable time. that being said, we spent about 4 hours complaining about the opening manager because HE NEVER FUCKING PREPS LIKE HES SUPPOSED TO AND ALSO BECAUSE THERE WERE FOUR FUCKING OPEN MAYO BAGGIES IN THE FRIDGE AND THEY WERE ALL MORE THAN HALF FULL
I was just talking to a family. The dad used “he” pronouns for me while the mom used “she”. They kept shooting each other sharp glances and subtly shaking their heads.
I said nothing, delighting in the fact that I am not obligated to be helpful in this circumstance.
Shoe…you really are a fae…
My NPC catchphrase when I approach guests is “Hello and welcome! My name is Ship. If you need anything or if you have questions, please let me know!”
A few times, guests have asked questions I could not answer, and jokingly complained that my introduction was a lie because I didn’t immediately know everything they asked me. I have then replied, “Oh, but sir, all I said was to please let me know if you have questions. I never said I would actually answer them.”
