In anticipation of a future I pray will never come, I've written the following. Yes, even in tragedy, there is hope... mine is that this poem will heal the wounds that divide us. It is called "Elegy; or, The Fall".

ELEGY; or, The Fall

Down, down, our Titan fell,
Hands stretched outward through the air.
Behind him streaked a comet's tail,
A burning trail of flaxen hair.

A crowd of cooks around him swept
To catch his body as he flew,
But mortal hands to flesh divine
The firmest grasp they cannot do.

The finger tips grazed by the cloth
Of navy jacket, crimson tie.
They struggled for a place to hold,
But found no purchase for the try.

His head lurched forward, jutting out,
And aimed, it seemed, toward the oil
That bubbled in a fryolator.
Fate set its arc, our dreams to foil.

A deaf'ning roar erupted then.
A rush of liquid spurted high.
The boiling splashes struck the walls
With bits of flesh and bits of fry.

For blocks around, a cry was heard,
A mighty bellow, deep and proud.
A tear was pulled from every eye.
"Our Titan!" wailed each voice aloud.

That mane of hair, the shade of gold,
Bobbed limply in the basket's foam.
A cashier spoke, "Lord, if you hear me,
Guide our mighty Titan home."

A ring of workers, some as young
As sixteen, which the law allows,
Encircled there and touched his back,
And wept beneath their lowered brows.

Then broke apart the sobbing crowd.
The manager, whose shift was done,
Stepped forth and said, "Remark this ground
For on it lies our holy one."

That golden sheen now wet with oil
Atop his head was aptly chose,
For high above, upon the roof,
Two arches of its color rose.

And with it, rising, light as air,
A spirit that could never die.
To Heaven, to be too their King
Look now! O! How our Titan flies!

I've seen a lot of different takes on falling block games over the years but this one has the sauce

Immediately, I can say my favorite thing about The Transylvania Adventure of Simon Quest (I have played it for 10 seconds) is that it is the right volume when it starts up. You have no idea how much I appreciate it. Also, since I've started writing, the opening's been playing and it's REALLY nice

Here's my original character Waffles the Wizard. He was hired by the king to maintain the ley lines that used to work great.

A four panel comic:

Panel 1: A wizard looking at a frog with a human hand in his back saying "We shall see what the anti-grafting peasants think of this!"

Panel 2: The frog says "Aren't you the wizard that cooled his orb in a moonwell?"

Panel 3: The wizard, rubbing his eyes in frustration, makes the frog vanish

Panel 4: The wizard in a chair, poking an orb with the text "BARRICADED" over and over again.

Got ambushed in a dungeon by a pack of goblins. Didn't check for traps and got hit by a poisoned dart. They took all my gold and left me outside with no clothes and one potion. Worst day of my life.

over on x the everything app some Chicago high school kid named Danny Spud tried to disrupt his school's anti-ICE protest by yelling about how much he loves ICE and then filmed himself getting walloped by a fellow student lmao the quote tweet making fun of him has 3x the likes

danny's original tweet which reads, Today, students at my high school in Chicago held an Anti-ICE protest.

I was the only one that decided to hold a sign that said ‘I Love ICE’.

Instead of allowing me to express my opinion, I was assaulted — Just for standing up for law enforcement.

What is happening to America?

there is a 47 second video that sees multiple other kids talk smack to him and one of them just lays into him physically

a quote tweet that has transcription from the punch. the tweet reads:“You’re gonna punch me?”
“Yeah”
“Then you’re gonna in trouble for that”
“Okay”

Followed by this frame is one of the hardest things I’ve seen on the internet this week.

the frame in question is the kid winding up for a punch. it looks exactly like the pepe punching meme

"Not even in my wildest dreams did I imagine that one day I would paint a picture of hot Bowser for official material, announced by Miyamoto himself. 😭 I laughed so hard in disbelief while painting, you have no idea lol"

post from Renan Porto's twitter, the post says "É Brasiiiiil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

Nem nos meus sonhos mais malucos eu imaginei que um dia faria uma pintura do Bowser gostosão para um material oficial, anunciado pelo Miyamoto em pessoa. 😭 Eu ri tanto de descrença enquanto pintava, vcs nao tem idea kkkk"
