[Image description: a tweet by Twitter user “Kai Heron” (@KaiHeron) that says: “Strengthen Indigenous land rights because they’re good stewards of nature” has become a refrain among Western environmentalists. Land Back is vital for Indigenous self-determination and liberation, not because Indigenous peoples do the West a service by conserving nature. /end ID]
[White text on a black background reads “If you are hiking in a group and waiting for slower people to catch up, don’t start walking again when they do catch up, because then you got a rest and they didn’t.
I think about this tip a lot, in many different contexts.]
[Illustration of Arthur removing Excalibur from the stone. Text overlaid on the image in an old timey font reads “Making sure that my Banana Bread is cooked all the way”.
Arthur is lavishly attired; his head is bowed, with his eyes cast down toward where both of his hands rest on the sword’s pommel. The stone is decidedly loaf-shaped.]
The tweet reads, “when you know there’s a pen in your bag but you’ve swiped through all the empty space…you know you’re going to have to scratch the bottom of the backpack, where the sand resides, before you can retreat with Pen…that’s a bad day. i don’t want to fill my nails with the sand”

Liz: “WARNING. There is a huge problem with this recipe. You will be sad if you don’t double it!!! It is fantastic. I made it for the sole purpose of creating French toast the following morning. Unfortunately, it didn’t make it to that stage as it was eaten rather quickly. Making again today only doubling.
Thank you so much for this delightful, easy recipe.” (88 likes)

[ID: the first image is the icon for a slideshow app called “slides”, with text that reads “Second Doctor fans be like / this is my favorite episode”
The second image is of a completely blank white background with text that reads “Eighth Doctor fans be like / this is my favorite episode”. ]
{Joke Explanations:
Many of the Second Doctor’s episodes were lost by the BBC, and only exist as hilariously bad, disjointed screenshots that then have the original audio overlayed on them as the screenshots are zoomed in and out on, rotated, or almost worse, just sit still on the screen while screeching sound effects turn it into a parody of itself. For viewing examples, please look up the scene where the First Doctor Regenerates into the Second Doctor, and Two’s first few minutes on screen. Sound warning for the video. It’s hilariously bad.
For the Eighth Doctor joke, it is a reference to the Audio Drama “Scherzo” where the Eighth Doctor and Charley Pollard are trapped in a blank white universe. It is a fantastic horror episode with the main monster being a creature made entirely of sound, perfectly mixing existential horror with the emotional turmoil of the characters having to talk about their feelings and deal with the emotional/physical fallout of the previous episode. }
The Adventure Zone: Balance Player Characters designs plus Lup <3
Yes, Merle’s extreme teen bible is as big as him.
[image description: several drawings of TAZ: Balance characters on light gray backgrounds. The first is a lineup of Merle, Taako and Magnus, drawn from the chest up with “The Adventure Zone: Balance” written beneath them. The three images after this shows the same drawing, but each character on their own.
Merle is an older Filipino dwarven man with light brown skin, long straight gray hair, and a medium-length beard. He’s wearing a green striped vest over a light green tunic shirt. He’s also wearing glasses with a beaded chain connected to them. One lens of the glasses is made of a cluster of light pink flowers. He’s looking to the side with a soft smile. Taako is a broad-shouldered Mexican elven man with brown skin and shoulder length, curly, dark brown hair that’s shaved on one side. He has short facial hair along his jaw and chin and he’s wearing dark teal robes with ornate gold detailing along the hems and a matching wizard’s hat, the brim of which is adorned with delicate gold chains. He’s looking to the side with a very slight smile. Magnus is a tall, muscular Chinese man with light brown skin, short dark brown hair, a mustache and a short beard. He’s wearing a red padded tunic with leather shoulder pauldrons. He’s looking to the side with a happy smile.
The next drawing is of Lup from the chest up. She is Taako’s twin, a Mexican elven woman with long, curly, dark brown hair. She’s wearing a light orange shawl with a frilly dark blue trim over a darker orange top. There’s a pink flower with an orange center tucked behind one of her ears, and she’s smiling at the viewer.
The next drawing is a sketch of Taako, Merle and Magnus with simplified facial features to show their full outfits. In addition to the robe and matching top, Taako is wearing brown pants, brown cowboy boots with a swirly design, and he’s holding a folded dark teal frilly umbrella. In addition to the vest and shirt, Merle is wearing baggy purple pants, strappy shoes and an enormous book that’s almost as big as he is strapped to his back. Magnus is wearing a long brown skirt under the padded tunic with matching boots.
The next drawing is a chibi sketch of Merle, sitting atop the enormous opened book as he reads it and says, “The spell is here somewhere.” Someone off-screen is shouting, “Merle we are in the middle of a fucking battle!” Beneath that, Lup’s and Taako’s umbrellas are drawn. Lup’s is frilly and pink, the underside resembling the same flower that was tucked behind her ear. Taako’s is the same as above, the underside resembling a galaxy.]

[Image description: A simple drawing of a dog standing to the left, facing the viewer, and a cat laying to the right, facing away. The dog has an open mouth with spit flying out, and is making a noise described as a “repulsive garbage disposal cough”. The cat, though facing away, has its head turned to look at the dog over its shoulder, and its facial expression is one of mild disdain and revulsion. End ID.]
