i woke up at 3:30 AM for no reason and i've never lived in the midwest but i'm considering making snickers salad because i saw a tumblr post about it

Olrox!! Olrox no!!! The redemptive nature of love is NOT deontological!!! Your ethic of care has gotten twisted, bro!! It is not enough to do something out of love!!! Your expression of care cannot be successful if the object of that care is not receptive to it and the consequences it brings!! You're repeating the cycle of trauma that brought you here in the first place!! Olrox—!!!

So I had a hysterectomy today (hooray!) and I brought along my stuffed orca, Shamu, as a comfort object. And everyone i interacted with during my pre-op was like "Oh! Who's this?" so I was telling them all about him, how he's been with me since I was 9 and gone on every single vacation and road trip, and they were telling me about their own stuffed buddies (one lady said she still has hers after 40 years!) and all of this while I was signing consent forms and providing a list of the things I'd brought with me, you know, small talk.

So then a nurse comes over and goes "Okay, I've got some stickers I'll put on your things so we know they're yours" and I'm like "OK cool" so she puts a sticker on my coat and stickers on my bags of clothes and then she turns to Shamu and I'm like "oh I guess he gets a sticker too"

But no. She pulls out a hospital bracelet that's an exact copy of mine and slaps it on his tail, like so:

And i was delighted by this, so I took a picture to send to my friends, who were equally delighted, and were cracking me up with their reactions (like so:)

Anyway, they take me back and put me under, and when I awake groggily a few hours later it takes me a minute to get my bearings, so I don't notice Shamu at first. But then I realize he's tucked up next to me in the gurney, so I grab him, and my hand touches gauze.

And I'm like "huh?" so I look at him and I realize

They gave my fucking orca a hysterectomy

I FOUMDH IT

Finally! advice for me! time to do all at once and probably burn my house down!

DM Advice

Have your players been arguing over what to buy from a shop for 45 minutes? Starting to get annoyed? Make something happen! Make an pickpocket rob them! Have the shopkeep kick them out for loitering! Maybe a group of Bandits storm in to try and loot the place! The shop next door catches ire! Spice things up! I do this almost every time my players go shopping to prevent them from complaining about how boring the session was just because they spent 20 minutes debating between items!
