Me and turtleslot? As partners?

Or me and unwnd. That second one makes no sense to me. Unwnd would be happy to coach me in private thread.

The final apparition, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come is visually the most terrifying. But after everything else he's dreamed this night, Scrooge is almost calm about the faceless reaper-like spirit. But, not so calm about the future that is revealed to him. He sees his own death and funeral, where no one cares and many show up only for the post-funeral meal. As horrible as that makes him feel, it's not the worst of the dream. He sees Bob Cratchett's family mourning the death of their young child, Tiny Tim. That death shatters the last of the ice gripping Scrooge's heart. He awakens, filled with Christmas spirit, and sets about making his small part of the world a better place.

You had a bunch on you for a bit.

I was never voting you today anyway, but even if I wanted to, if I had, you could have voted me immediately and that’s that. So voting you was never an option for me, it’s not like peta could convince me.

Don't feel like you should die, don't feel like Norfolk should die, but feel like tying it so far so maybe bb can decide it and we can be like that or something. I just don't want bb to look at things or people on Norfolk to look at things and go "welp, better move to quiet if we want someone gone"

Wow... Waking up to a hammer is strange... Almost anti-climatic. Fell asleep early last night.

I do want to say that I, like quiet, am also having a good deal of fun. Great stuff so far.

Scrooge's first conversation with Bob Marley will be our last words on dreams today: ‘You may be an undigested bit of beef, a blot of mustard, a crumb of cheese, a fragment of underdone potato. There’s more of gravy than of grave about you, whatever you are!’.

Mythologies about dreams are a part of nearly every human culture, as one would expect given that dreaming is something nearly all humans do. In Greek mythology there are several figures who reign over sleep and dreams. Above them all is Hypnos, the god of Sleep. He was considered to be a gentle god who helped humans in need and, due to their sleep, owned half of their lives

so i realized i have to either drastically rethink my own reads or not hammering quiet was a mistake given i had two townreads and a potential pr voting there, that's on me because i let my own sketchiness about lunar shake my thinking. firs order of business is to reread safebet because i mentally townbinned him early after his readlist and haven't really evaluated since then

still very baffled by how lunar treated bbmolla's claim but probably not going to consider him today
