I love Ed so much.

I hate this plot shape so much too.

So I don’t have to follow this when making a story????

Not even a little bit, no.

Here’s the written out version because:

1 story:

Act 1
Teaser: Wow!
Normal world
Something happens
What the Fuck am I Doing??
Shit gets really bad But…
Okay, now I think I know what I gotta do

Act 2 “I’m changing”
I start out or 1st act out
Okay, this is gonna be a lot harder than I thought
Fuck Shit this sucks
Wait, am I figuring something out?
Oh god I suck it can’t get any worse can it?
It’s the worst that it could possibly BE. OH FUCK

3rd act
Building back up
Wait, can I DO this?
Okay - Fuck - maybe I can… what is my plan?
Okay, here we go, let’s try
Will this work?
No!
It went bad!
I’m totally going to fail
But… but… but… ONE LAST TRY … and…
Final effort and…
Holy shit! I DID it!
The End I get not what I wanted but what I needed

In circle:
For Du F(unintelligeble) Ed
with a squiggly face underneath

Okay, here’s my idea:

The British should put a time limit on the Monarchy.

Not like declaring a republic tomorrow, but deciding on a date in the future that ends the British Monarchy.

And there’s a perfect date for it coming up!

October 14th, 2066.

A thousand years since the Battle of Hastings. A thousand years of this one specific bloodline ruling England.

Call time on the Monarchy after exactly one thousand years. Nice, and neat.

Even better: Charles isn’t living 44 years. He’ll be gone in about twenty. Now William? He’s what, 40? Yeah, he can live another 44 years. His great grandmother was over a hundred, his granny was 96, William can make it to 84 barring accident or assassination.

So on October 14th 2066, William the Last steps down a thousand years after William the First won the crown.

Nice, neat, and fair. William gets the crown he’s been waiting forty years for already, but ten-year-old George grows up without expectation of it.

Have a nice big abdication ceremony, even.

Plus, what an absolute baller move to announce your regnal name as William the Last.

the Final Bill

This is actually a really good idea, I think.

Strikes are clearly NOT the reason anything with queer and trans content is being destroyed and pulled from the public eye.

as a kid i had one of those “there’s a monster under my bed” moments except real.

every night i would cry about a ghost or something trying to scare me by knocking on my bedroom windows and walls. like, really loudly, every hour or so, every night. only at night. so my dad was like “heh okay kiddo let’s check it out :) ah see? there’s nothing here :)” and left.

until years later he admitted to me that he did in fact hear the unexplainable knocking when he slept in that room one night, and it kept him awake with fear. and suddenly felt awful for not believing little kid me.

imagine your kid being like “daddy there’s a demon in my closet” and you being like ok son lemme just check that for you :). and you open the door and there’s a demon in the closet

WHAT

Actually your society is the freaks for shooting everything that moves and burning half your “nature reserves” every year so that upperclass dandies can eat leaded pheasant. North Americans are the well adjusted ones here, your country has become a desolate suburban lawn in island form

my opinion as an american is that we spend way too much time trying to save african megafauna and nowhere near enough time making fun of the english for turning an entire island–which was once a hazelnut food forest–into a goddamn lawn.

bill bryson once actually wrote down in a whole book and got published that the english were superb gardeners and i about threw the book out the window i was that outraged. the english!!! the fucking ENGLISH. them? that’s who you want to laud? the english

the

THERE ARE A GRAND FUCKING TOTAL OF ZERO STAPLE CROPS ORIGINALLY OR EVEN PRIMARILY CULTIVATED BY THE ENGLISH. NONE OF THEM. NOT POTATOES NOT WHEAT NOT TURNIPS NOT RYE. THEY GNAWED THEIR ISLAND DOWN TO A NUB FOR NOTHING. THE WOLVES AND BEARS ALL GONE FOR NOTHING. THE WILDCATS AND BIRDS AND MUSTELIDS AND INSECTS, GONE IN THEIR THOUSANDS, FOR NOTHING. FOR SOME SHEEP. FOR

THEIR MAIN AGRICULTURAL EXPORT IS FAMINE

anyway the english approach to agriculture, biodiversity, and environmentalism is roughly on par with a dog’s approach to someone else’s homework and everywhere in the world that has inherited their cack-fisted disdain for nature has suffered immensely. i can’t overstate enough how bad things have been and still are.

please make fun of them. it’s the least they fucking deserve.

that photo of hunter s. thompson shooting his typewriter is such a mood

Could NOT have predicted what I was in for before the image loaded. Why is it a ray gun. Why are they in the snow. Why that outfit in the snow.

1. That’s not a ray gun, that’s a revolver with an absurdly huge scope on it.
2. Hunter is in the snow because he lived in the Colorado mountains near Aspen when that picture was taken.
3. That’s basically his back yard.
4. He’s dressed like that because up until moments before the photo he was writing.
5. He’s shooting his typewriter because he’s a writer.

Happy Birthday to Hunter S Thompson!

That is the look of a writer who is convinced he has found the source of the typos and plotholes, and is determined to Do Something About It.
