As a writer, you should try to give your villains plausible motivations, backstories, etc. A villain is much more interesting if they think they’re the hero of their own story.
As a DM, this is still great advice in theory but in practice you should ABSOLUTELY NEVER DO THIS because your players will discover your villains’ tragic backstory, look at their motivation and find it sound, and end up adopting the villains, going rogue from the Celestial Intervention Agency to avenge the wrongs done said villains and ensure their freedom, accidentally kidnapping the President, and plunging Gallifrey into a civil war.
This is… extremely specific
I love this post

I really…fucking hate customer service.
Like…
Okay, as a lot of you know, I work overnights at a hotel. It’s for a pretty recognizable brand, so we get a lot of high paying customers.
Part of my job is to prep the breakfast area before the breakfast team shows up so that breakfast is done by the time it needs to be. This, of course, means that I have to step away from the desk. It doesn’t really help that the time I need to start working on breakfast is also when customers start checking out.
So I had the bright idea of making a sign. It’s not fancy, the letters are pretty big, and it basically just says “Hey if you need me I’m in the kitchen, just give a holler.”
It’s worked really well so far; people see it, they call for me, and I get them taken care of with little to no fuss. Or, at least, it’s worked up until now.
This guy.
This. Fucking. Guy.
I finish prepping the breakfast area, I walk out, and at the front desk is a man, huffing and puffing. He harshly asks “Are you working the front desk?”.
I say with my best customer service voice “Yes sir, I just had to prep a few things for the breakfast team. Can I help you with anything?”
“Yeah you can help me by giving me some fucking service. I’ve been waiting for almost five minutes and I have to catch my flight!”
Oh boy. Here we go.
So I tell the man, “Well, sir, if you’ll look right in front of you, if you needed me, that sign tells you that I was in the kitchen.”
And this man. Just. Fucking looks at me. And says.
“You expect me to fucking read on my day off?”
And I just.
I was floored. That someone would say that. Completely unironically. With no hesitation.
Just
Fucking customer service, man.
Night auditor nightmare.

Taako (on Lup’s best day ever) talks about how this turkey is Lup’s favorite meal on HER birthday and how their aunt made it for HER birthday instead of saying Their (since you know identical twins).
My theory, Lup was born 11:58pm of X day on X Month and Taako was 3 minutes (fashionably) late to his birth. So technically Taako’s birthday is a day after Lup’s which doesn’t matter because they celebrate for a month straight.
its also across month lines, so they both get their own birthday month
Plot twist, Lup was born on New Years Eve and Taako was born on day of the New Year. Taako forever comments how he’s “younger” and beautiful meanwhile both take advantage of the fact they are born in ‘different’ years and celebrate year long.

That is not funny
That is not cute
It is animal abuse
BIRDS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO EAT CHOCOLATE
BIRDS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE COATED IN CHOCOLATE
Why the fuck do you think birds who get coated in oil die? It’s for the same goddamn reason.
You idiots can have all the chuckles you want over the fact that that poor animal is “living the dream” but I hope you also know that it probably died from that.
And if you still find it funny then I genuinely do not want to associate with you and can only wish upon you the most the most painful and awful death imaginable.
I just want to point out that no one is forcing that bird into the chocolate
no one pulled the damn thing in
Inf act, it fully appears to be waddling into the foundain by its damn self
Calm the hell down chocolate is not the same thing as chocolate
Its just a bird making a mistake and its fucking funny
It’s not animal cruelty unless someone was holding that bird at gunpoint
fucking christ
