I'm toxic to myself. The person I love can stab me and I'll convince myself that I understand why they acted the way they did.

Tentacles.

Normalize not forcing people to choose you. If they think they can find better elsewhere – let them. Respectfully.

Idea for an animated kid's movie/comedy.

So there's this dinosaur park that's a thinly veiled Jurassic Park knock-off (call it Cretaceous Island), and it's a bit of a toy story situation, in that the dinosaurs can talk and communicate when the humans aren't looking, mostly at night.

The dinos don't really want to break out since they like their cushy zoo lives and five-star treatment from the staff, so they're willing to get oggled by a bunch of twelve year olds to keep the food coming.

Out main characters are a T-Rex, two raptor sisters, and a wise old triceratops. The raptors are bored with their lives and long for adventure, the triceratops is a wise-old mentor figure, and the T-Rex is lonely since the park won't engineer any other T-Rex's for safety reasons.

Through magical shenanigans they get sent back to the actual Cretaceous period.

Now these pampered genetically engineered dinos have to survive in the savage dinosaur era. To underscore the differences between them, the future dinos are animated as pretty standard cartoon dinosaurs, a la Land Before Time, while the dinosaurs from the past are animated to be as scientifically accurate as possible.

The dinos go through shenanigans, amke friends in the past, evade predators, and eventually make their way home through magic portal stuff, except for the T-Rex who elects to stay behind since he's fallen for a female T-Rex he met in the past. His friends are sad to leave him behind, but go to the present anyway.

Back in the present, the dinos think nothing has really changed, but they find that the exhibit in the visitor's center, previously a single roaring T-Rex skeleton, has been replaced with two T-Rex's, famous for being found fossilized together called "The Deadly Lovers", and its their friend and the mate he found in the past. It ends on the bittersweet note.

My thoughts were destroying me. I tried not to think but the silence was a killer too.

Fabrician techpriests can purr. the standard pattern of vocal implants they receive to speak binary allows them to emit soft static as well as low clicking noises, which they use to comfort others and self-soothe. these sounds fulfill most purposes purring is thought to have. when newly-decanted novitiates are given to their families, what usually results is a pile of techpriests holding the confused and wiggly children, and softly clicking at them.

It is both a blessing

And a curse

To feel everything

So deeply
