All my coworkers like me so so so so much!!!!!!!! They believe I am normal, which is true, because I am
I think one of my biggest contentions with the broader de fanbase (esp on tumblr), is the way people seem to think the 'point' of the story is ultimately uplifting. idk if I'm just a bitter pessimist, but to me, de is much more focused on the spectacular failure to affect change in late stage capitalism. the world of de is essentially a 1:1 mirror to our own, even the more fantastical elements like the pale are obviously meant to be analogous to the existential threat of climate change (I have way more thoughts about the pale but that's an essay I have yet to write). Harry's amnesia and subsequent rediscovery of his past is synecdochally representative of the revechol and it's past. as the player, you uncover both in tandem as you progress through the central mystery of the game. the fact that Harry's ultimate failure, his relationship to Dora, is revealed at the site of a failed revolution is very intentional; both are events everyone is desperate to forget, and yet they are inescapable, informing every aspect of the present reality. again, this is all very bleak, but honestly I think if the game had a more positive outlook I wouldn't have connected with it as much as I have. it's not particularly comforting or inspiring, but it is cathartic.
Twilight and her mini evil clone In a couple of hours. I was bored
fuck them up glenn
#now I'm gonna be pedantic and say that the kids in narnia don't have powers #unless you think being british is a superpower #which c.s. lewis low-key did believe so actually your kind of right
"magical girl" is not just a girl with magical powers, it's a specific genre. magical girl characters need to be from a work within that genre or they can be from a work that doesn't fall into the magical girl genre if the particular character plays on the tropes of the magical girl. think about the definition of "superhero" instead. captain america is a superhero bc he comes from the superhero genre. the crimson chin from the fairly oddparents is a superhero bc his design and behavior draw on the superhero genre. but you would never call the kids from narnia superheroes just bc they save the world using their powers
i think what us in the west and particularly europe must mostly focus on rn are the rights of syrian refugees who several european countries are already planning to expel en masse and deny future asylum requests. the far right in most of our countries is already clamouring for their departure and we can't let that happen
I’m just thinking like the time it would take for two bears to maul 42 boys is a lot and they got every single one of them like at that point they were practically waiting in line. It’s pathetic really

the last surviving referent was just discovered and humanely euthanized by field semioticians in the salt flats of utah. apparently it was what people were referring to when they'd say. well. it doesn't matter now anyways does it.
let’s groove tonight, share the spice of life
Pisses me off how good Shakespeare actually is. Like yeah he's actually that good. People hype him up like he's the best English writer ever, and yeah he's actually an S+ tier writer.
I deliberately cropped the screenshot because I didn't feel like making anyone read transmisogynistic garbage (if you look closely you'll notice I intentionally left some text cutoff at the bottom to show there was more context)
a bunch of trans mascs for some reason: "terfs hate all trans people equally! their rhetoric definitely doesn't cast trans fems as uniquely predatory and scary"

love scrolling though someone's deeply unhinged blog and slowly uncovering the joker-origin-story reason why they're Like That
while I'm obviously happy that ocd continues to get more and more awareness, I do wish it didn't involve so much reassurance posting.
"I can 100% promise that you're not a bad person 💖" is a nice sentiment, and I'm sure well intentioned, but oh my god is it unhelpful.
How did you learn to mix?
i just accept the possibility of being really bad at something and then proceed to do whatever i want
The thing that really gets me is that a very large proportion (the majority?) of currently living, endangered indigenous American languages, at least in the US and Canada America, became endangered as a result of twentieth century policy and twentieth century developments. Residential schools, forced adoptions, and economic sabotage within the last century. And of course this is the case: languages that were already endangered 100 years ago are just dead now. But the point is that these historical wrongs are not wrongs of some distant past. The people fighting for the survival of their language here are not merely daydreaming about an imagined prelapsarian past. The are fighting for something that (depending on age) they or their parents personally experienced being robbed of. Tanadrin pointed out that the more time goes on, the harder historical wrongs are to right. This is the sort of historical wrong which is often in memory close enough that meaningful mitigation is possible.

Liarmouth cancelled, Scavengers Reign S2 cancelled, Mickey 17 delayed AGAIN, fuck my stupid filmbro life
the eternal return of "leftists are too mean to men" discourse is driving me insane. what do you MEAN there's not enough edgy leftists podcasts for men??? have these people genuinely been living under a rock for the past decade?????
"Joe Rogan but leftist" already exists!! his name is Vaush and he fucking sucks!!!!
kind of unrelated but I hate how the op implies that languages are lost because of changing cultural trends and not like, colonial violence
![background from episode 11 of scavengers reign, from the cold open flashback to when azi first landed on vesta. image takes place in the red desert area where we first saw her in the beginning of the season
to the right of the image, taking up most of the space, is azi's landing pod, standing upright from where it landed in the desert. large, cone-like in shape with a flat top. it faces the right, the door closed and two of the pods' round windows visible above and beside it, as well as one of the launchers. a band of black sits at the top and bottom of the pod.
the ground is rocky and mostly flat, with low hills in the distance. at its flattest, it is a mixture of coral pinks and bits of yellow, while raised areas become a darker pink, broken up by dark purple rocks and even darker grass. behind the pod are large white pillars, growing from the ground and towards the sky, crisscrossing like trees in a forest. some are nearly was wide as the landing pod, while others are shorter and thinner, with even smaller bits branching out. behind it all, the sky is bright blue, nearing teal towards the horizon, with large, white clouds [end id]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/73030c8ba37a87560efe992e985ff435/555dd4b891280814-f7/s500x750/efc4f746d1cc341ce459b3a848d3c74b0722a9f1.jpg)
![background from episode 11 of scavengers reign. image from the red desert area that azi first landed in. image is a wideshot view of the red desert landscape, with its coral and dark pink ground, patches of purple grass, and white pillars.
a few budding pillars that are barely off the ground can be seen in the foreground. on either side of the image, larger white pillars rise up to the sky, skinnier ones on the left, and a particularly thicc one on the right. small pillars dot the distant landscape ahead, with a clear view of the horizon, filled with only the clear blue sky, and large white clouds drifting behind the pillars [end id]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/71335ec50d2f473e7eb1e5241a982cbc/555dd4b891280814-bc/s500x750/3eb9f33da18c76e8ed88151d5c15fa114a97d19c.jpg)

a portion of the pod takes up the left foreground, behind it, the middle ground is centred on the large grey container that held levi and the bike, nestled into the pink earth. a large white pillar sits at an angle from behind it, and a few more crisscross the back. the blue sky peeks out from behind [end id]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/0b4ce4b8224694f0051b9f8e4b453739/555dd4b891280814-10/s500x750/c4e75da169f925d615abd8e243e43e12513a3201.jpg)

close up shot, looking down at one of the mysterious white vesta flowers. the pink earth is dotted with bits of yellow, and patches of darker ground, dark red rocks, and purple grass. the singular flower sits in the centre, rising from the ground with a delicate blue-green stem and thin, pointed leaves. the flower is closed, its petals twisted in a closed bud that has a tear-drop shape, it is blue-ish white and contains a slight glow [end id]](https://64.media.tumblr.com/1deead3c540303bbfe5e39063f0b5202/555dd4b891280814-92/s500x750/19da6f1c8dca27d2d1df7bbf421ed4e4701ece5b.jpg)

I'll stop posting about this I swear, but this pissed me off so bad. it's basically identical to that 'cozy disco elysium' bait post but unironic
crazy how kim kitsuragi has such powerful gay swag that it makes the fan base collectively forget that one of his main character traits is being a massive centrist lol
