My four favourite words: Did You Write This?
Why: they almost always come with the most fantastic, left-field, toon logic driven shitpost made of nonsense writing and character ideas that I absolutely would have written if I had thought of it first and I am now fake mad that I didn’t do just that
creature in fiction: *is portrayed as bad and mean*
8 year old me: but what if there was a good and nice one :0
there’s no age limit for this
youre right…………..
me at 8: but what if you gave it a hug?
me at 31: but what if you gave it a hug?
The neurodivergent reaction to bad and mean creatures: but what if someone loved this unlovable thing? Maybe it would be possible for me, also a strange and burdensome and unlovable thing, to be loved as well?
dealer: got some straight gas 🔥😛 this strain is called-

high pitched gnomish voice from somewhere in dealer’s giant trenchcoat: i thinjk shes onto us boss
god i wish i wouldn’t have to explain the intricacies of the neopets economy to you guys to give the full context for this but. the new neopets team that took over from jumpstart pledged that they were going to curb the inflation of rare items, which is great because a lot of rare items are worth literally hundreds of millions of neopoints, they are unbuyable unless you’ve been playing actively for 20 years. they did this earlier with a site festival that included random loot boxes, some of which had Unbelievably Fucking Rare And Precious items worth 200 million neopoints apiece.
well.
today they have gone a step further. by releasing this year’s trick-or-treat bags. and having the trick-or-treat bags be stuffed to the brim with unbelievably fucking rare stamps, weapons, paint brushes, defense magic, and other unbuyables. (all prohibitively expensive and in-high-demand types of items.)
jellyneo, the premier neopets website, has recorded prices of some items plummeting from 2,000,000 neopoints to 4,000 neopoints IN THE LAST THREE HOURS. this is when most people haven’t even heard about the event or OPENED THEIR BAGS YET.
and of course. cherry on top. 20-year-old account holders are crytyping on the site events neoboard about how mean and cruel it is to make rare stamps part of the prize pool, because their entire identity hinges on being part of the neopian bourgeoisie, and they are having MELTDOWNS over their assets being devalued until they’re part of the lowly proletariat.
