They Are So Silly

Yesterday on "I had a bad, terrible idea": what if Hollow had no visible mouth until Radi gave them one?

I have no vocal interface and I must scream

i'm making a brand new, unbearable wizard quiz

i feel strongly about this

so you’re telling me ghost might be doing a cover of phantom of the opera? if it’s the musical version and not the iron maiden song i will actually ascend to another plane of existence PLEASE BE THE MUSICAL

(me, my parents, my sister, and the baby are sitting at the kitchen table eating lunch)

baby, pointing at the light fixture over the table and signing "on": o.*

my sister: we actually can't turn that light on right now, because the lightbulb inside is burnt out! it needs a new one.

baby: ighbu.

sister: yes, lightbulb! granddaddy said after we eat he's going to climb up there on a ladder and change it, and then the light will come on!

baby: gadada! adda, uuu! ighbu o!

sister: exactly!

baby, signing "on" and pointing at the light and then my dad, with increasing urgency: GADADA ADDA UUUU. O.

my sister: we're going to finish eating first though, ok?

baby: nonono. O. gadada adda uuu.

[a split second goes by]

baby, pointing to himself: ba. adda uuu. ighbu.

me: you're going to climb the ladder and change the lightbulb yourself?

baby: dzyeah. *pointing to the buckle where he is buckled into the high chair* ububu.

me: unbuckle you? so you can change the lightbulb?

baby, highly businesslike: dzyeah.

*pronounced like "on" without the n

huge burden for a tiny thing

(so mad i can’t see straight) Yeah i just don’t think chat gpt is a good classroom tool
