We were playing Dungeons and Dragons and coming up to the big finale boss fight. House rules are that three 20s = instant kill.
The party decided to allow their pet sentient cactus to fight along with them after teaching it how to throw and retrieve a coconut. I went along with it for the laughs, treating it as an improvised weapon with pretty large negatives on dice rolls.
The very first round of the fight went to the cactus. The cleric instructed Needles the Cactus to throw his coconut at the boss.

MFW my uberboss was one-shotted with a coconut
MFW I had to think of how a coconut, thrown by a two-foot tall walking cactus, had managed to slay a black dragon.
So half of the classes I have to take next semester have all of their sections filled up and in waitlist mode.
I have 4 days left until I register.
I’m so fucked, it’s not even funny ;2;
UPDATE
Okay so the university has a lot of crosslisted courses, meaning that they span departments by name, but are really just the same course with the same material, and meeting room/time.
For example: The class about Elementary Probability is designated as STAT 318, and MATH 318.There’s only section available for next semester, with a total capacity of 50 enrolled and 35 waitlisted.
Now get this.
The scheduling database has them listed separately with a footnote stating that the two are combined. The STAT entry is filled closed, but the MATH entry is still open with 6 seats still up for grabs.
My default reaction to shitty political landscapes and their fruits is to dive into my little fantasy world and simulate my own political system that is just as bad (or even worse), but palatable for an audience as a fiction.
I don’t think it’s healthy but it’s super fun, I’ll tell you that.
I think Tumblr does a thing where it loads and unloads elements/posts on the dashboard as you scroll around.
Because holy shit is it buggy. If you scroll past a long vertical photoset, it “unloads” and you are suddenly shot down a few posts. Then you scroll up to see what you missed and the long photoset reloads and shoots you way back up again in a vicious cycle.
I’ve made a soft announcement on PC earlier today, so here’s the full deal.
After three attempts to muster up strength, I have finally caved and opened up a Patreon!
Its main purpose is to act as a tip jar for supporters of my blogs. Of course, y’all get drawing rewards for donating a special amount (to show my gratitude ;2;), but there won’t be any watermarks or lockdowns or whatever.
Patrons get more early access content like WIPs and scripts and full updates immediately after it’s finished. I’m also figuring out how to potentially include more work streams.
As for non-patron affairs, I’ll still be posting a general WIP like I’ve always had, and updates will be published on Saturdays at 12 PM (EDT/EST), conditions permitting.
I’m just starting out here, so bear with me if it’s a bit shaky to start. ^^
Anyways, yeah! Thanks again for listening/supporting!
As more time passes, I get more nervous and hesitant to post things in general.
And that includes PC updates. It’s like I’m forgetting how to stand in front of a crowd without having panic attacks or something.
It’s still something I really want to do and refuse to let go of. But now the audience scares me. Will they like it? Will they still care at least a little? Have I really run everything into the ground? Every piece of evidence I have suggests that yeah, I’m done. No one wants anything to do with me anymore. I’ve overstayed my welcome.
But I’ll still finish this update hoping that it’s not true. I really hope it isn’t.
