      It lacks any form of taste. Indeed, it is a black hole of taste, a void of nothing in your mouth. If chewed too long, it will erase your ability to taste anything at all.

          Come to think of it; all of Joyce’s slang would have come from fellow home-schoolees, their parents, or her parents. She has had very limited exposure to current popular culture. Homeslice is a term her parents would have picked up around the same time I did.

      She’s just channeling her natural behavior when in biology class.

      Nah, even if she doesn’t believe any of it, I’m sure Joyce is the sort to take perfect notes and color code everything and dot all the Is with hearts.

Two magnetic characters: a black-haired guy and a brown-haired girl with glasses. He included a third one that I think is the character who looks the most like Helen from my webcomic Narbonic.

Cops are overgrown children cosplaying War, with all the rest of us forced into their stupid, childish game without our consent, consuming vast funds from the public treasury and ruining lives by the hundreds of thousands.

a woman posted a pic in a group chat of a baby turkey she bought thinking it was a chicken. She captioned the pic "IS THIS A TURKEY?!?" Anyway, I haven't been here because I've been yelling IS THIS A TURKEY at everything. You should try it

Jonathan Joss being shot outside his home while protecting his husband after being sent a threatening and distressing package is WHY we need Pride It's 2025 and people are still being shot and killed for being queer This is why we march and why we fight
