Here’s a filk for the first day of tazladyweek​, an ode to my favorite blazingly humanist undead robot daughter Noelle!

Lyrics:

The world is still here.
The world is still living.
I think this is the best gift I’ve ever been given.
I was sure it all stopped,
That they’d all disappeared
But now I’ve got life in my circuits and soul
And the world is still here!

The world is still here.
The world is still going
And the harvests keep coming and children keep growing
And the growing don’t stop
It comes year after year
And even if life leaves my circuits and soul
The world is still here!

The world is still here.
The world is still turning.
And I know there’s still places and lives that are burning
Well I’ll make the flames stop
So you don’t live in fear
I’ll fight with each spark in my circuits and soul
As long as there’s life in my circuits and soul
And even if live leaves my circuits and soul
The world is still here!
The world is still here.

The World Is Still Here

I do not own The Adventure Zone (duh!). Art credit below as well. 

Lucretia is defs one of my favorite NPCs. Her character develops so much--from the introverted chronicler,  to the lonely bookkeeper, to the wise (though sarcastic) leader of the Bureau of Balance. I hope I did Lucretia and the Madame Director justice with this music!!

The Water, Revealed

Saw a funny craigslist ad for this and had to read it

[full text]

You want a car that gets the job done? You want a car that’s hassle free? You want a car that literally no one will ever compliment you on? Well look no further.

The 1999 Toyota Corolla.

Let’s talk about features.

Bluetooth: nope

Sunroof: nope

Fancy wheels: nope

Rear view camera: nope...but it’s got a transparent rear window and you have a fucking neck that can turn.

Let me tell you a story. One day my Corolla started making a strange sound. I didn’t give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End.

You could take the engine out of this car, drop it off the Golden Gate Bridge, fish it out of the water a thousand years later, put it in the trunk of the car, fill the gas tank up with Nutella, turn the key, and this puppy would fucking start right up.

This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children.

Things this car is old enough to do:

Vote: yes

Consent to sex: yes

Rent a car: it IS a car

This car’s got history. It’s seen some shit. People have done straight things in this car. People have done gay things in this car. It’s not going to judge you like a fucking Volkswagen would.

Interesting facts:

This car’s exterior color is gray, but it’s interior color is grey.

In the owner’s manual, oil is listed as “optional.”

When this car was unveiled at the 1998 Detroit Auto Show, it caused all 2,000 attendees to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in air pressure inside the building caused a partial collapse of the roof. Four people died. The event is chronicled in the documentary “Bored to Death: The Story of the 1999 Toyota Corolla”

You wanna know more? Great, I had my car fill out a Facebook survey.

Favorite food: spaghetti

Favorite tv show: Alf

Favorite band: tie between Bush and the Gin Blossoms

This car is as practical as a Roth IRA. It’s as middle-of-the-road as your grandpa during his last Silver Alert. It’s as utilitarian as a member of a church whose scripture is based entirely on water bills.

When I ran the CarFax for this car, I got back a single piece of paper that said, “It’s a Corolla. It’s fine.”

Let’s face the facts, this car isn’t going to win any beauty contests, but neither are you. Stop lying to yourself and stop lying to your wife. This isn’t the car you want, it’s the car you deserve: The fucking 1999 Toyota Corolla.
