Xariphon

Today on “Pillow or Bear Trap”…

I’m a forgettable nobody, so, Michael Cera.

Like having cancer and AIDS at the same time.

It also became memeable and noteworthy because it’s it’s drastically off tone for the comic strip it came from. Generally a light hearted series and then BAM, have something that in context is utterly brutal.

Nowadays it’s so divorced from it’s context that it’s essentially just a meme.

Sounds like how the people of Palestine feel all the time.

I used to do Renaissance Faires.

“Wild Mountain Thyme” was the song the entire cast sang together at the end of each day, my first year.

It hits me like a truck every time.

So why do so many keep dying?

Because these deaths are caused by murderous assholes with over-inflated egos and immunity to consequences. ACAB.

Best Jeanist approves this message.

I stand corrected.

The irony of the title is still true, though.

All 13 of Erebus’s Black Crusades aren’t better. >…>

The Horus Heresy. When you see what the Emperor’s vision actually was, and really get to compare it to the galaxy they got, it’s just… so much worse. And the galaxy is pretty goddamn bad to begin with. But you know there’s a special place at the very bottom of hell for Erebus.

Magnus did nothing wrong and Russ has fleas.

Which fuckin’ god? The one that (if you believe in) sent the ten plagues? And the flood? And burned two major cities? And that’s just in the book where he’s supposedly the good guy?

would have been stolen*

Have you tried earning people’s attention instead of demanding it?

They’re not failing. They’re actively choosing not to.

Is she gay or European?

Because that’s what young people need, more ways to be excluded from society and isolated.

ACAB

Mine is an old Black Crusade character name. The original Xariphon was a scholar-warrior.
