Hamlet (1921)
was talking with a friend who pointed out that higurashi is the one horror franchise where the characters having phones would actually make things much worse and decided to game out how the internet would ruin the casts' lives.
Rena: fullly Pastel QAnon-pilled. Has not been vaccinated and believes that hillary clinton is a lizard person. shows up to local school board meetings with a cup of her own menses she's ready to fling at people.
Keiichi: either one of the rare people stupid enough to actually become addicted to porn or he becomes like. Mr. Beast. He's not naturally unscrupulous and probably avoids scamming people but in the absence of real friendships he's the most dedicated and successful hollow attention-hound in human history.
Satoshi: learns about femboys and starts posting pics of himself in a maid dress. Is manipulated by channers into posting lewds of himself on social media.
Mion: learns about non-binary people and goes oh. OHHHHHH. begins to consider if moving to the city for a bit might help her find some new ways of expressing herself.
Shion: reigning moderator of r/femaledatingstrategies. locked in a neverending duel for control of the subreddit with Kyrie, who does not know that her mortal enemy is a teenaged girl.
Rika: somethingawful deadender. has not left the house in years. tweets with dril-like concision.
takano: basically just that rocket scientist dildo saleswoman convincing people to engage in white supremacist mass shootings. honestly the internet doesnt change her very much it just makes her an even greater danger to society at large.
irie: dont even need to say it do i
satoko: we couldnt quite figure her out. friend argued for 'general-purpose replyguy hater,' i argued 'fandom anti.'
The great Chennakeshava Temple, Karnataka, India. It is filled with carvings and other art works of minute details . There Are 48 large pillars in the main hall. It took 103 years to construct this Temple ( not a surprising thing when you look at the carvings). It is painful to know that this Temple is not well recognized.
look who they got working here now that everyone stopped believing๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
