Weaponized incompetence my ass just weaponize it back. Once my dad tries to pull the “but I don’t know how to clean the counters as well as you” on my mom and she said “ok honey I’ll show you” and she made him stand in the kitchen and watch her clean the counters. Then she pulled out a bottle of chocolate syrup and proceeded to spray the entire kitchen in chocolate, hand him the sponge and said “okay now it’s your turn”
Aren’t you glad covid didn’t happen in 2005 like all the scene kids would be calling the new variant the omnomnomicron with a cartoon dinosaur or something
I made you a vaccine but I eated it

that one definitely deserves elevation from the tags
i cannot stress enough how you should consume and interact with more than just popular media and culture. and this isnt me saying “read some classics and watch obscure movies made in the 60s” i mean this as in read nonfiction! read articles about things youve never thought about! watch documentaries and educational shows and read up on the history of weaving or how trade systems worked in the 9th century byzantine empire and look into philosophical questions from cultures you’re not a part of!
branch outside of your interests and comfort zone because not only will this widen your worldview, it also improves the way you conceptualize things and will help you think critically about whats happening in ur life and the media u consume normally. also, you might learn some fun things for trivia night :)
you know how most of the things humans use as spices are poisonous or repellent to most other mammals? and you know how anything vaguely d&d inspired has dwarves being way more poison resistant than even humans?
dwarf cuisine shouldn’t be bland, it should be unimaginably spicy and potentially harmful or fatal to humans. like green potato and rhubarb leaf salad with a festive garnish of yew berries and deadly nightshade berries, that kind of thing.
Concept: humans think it’s bland cuz rather than memorizing what kills humans it’s safer to just pass on the spices.
