GUYS JANUS’ PLAYLIST IS THE S H I T

I changed my mind: I am going to post my analysis of “Epilogue”, because you people seem like you could use some positivity.

(copy-pasted from a message, so it’s maybe a little disjointed. apologies)

it’s That Scene™ from Electroma. Thomas’ gone—but Guy-Man played a role in it. So, that = they’re done as a band, but it was a mutual (and maybe difficult) decision, one made among *friends*. that’s why it had to be Thomas’ death specifically—Guy-Man’s death was solo; Thomas’ was collaborative. then, we get Guy-Man walking away to “Touch”. as @madlyfluffy pointed out, something important happens (or, rather, doesn’t)—Guy-Man doesn’t die. to me, this choice indicates that while DP may be no more, that doesn’t mean *Thomas and Guy-Man* are done—as friends, as a collaborative unit, whatever. 

and it’s *vital* to note how “Touch” was used. the video doesn’t end with Paul William’s devastating final verse. it’s a new mix (!!!), repeating the chorus to the end. love never ends—and love is the answer, and love is home. there’s no pain or acrimony here. there’s only love and acceptance. 

on that note, there’s the “1993–2021” card. the fact that they’ve got their hands together shows they’ve gone together in unity. (aside: Idk if you saw, but Warren Fu, who designed the card, said DP worked on it *together* with him. again, I have no reason to believe there’s any ill will here. just acceptance of finality.)

(something that came to me after writing the message: Daft Punk’s final piece could very well have been that mix of “Touch”. they went out on a note of love.)

Y'know, I'm surprised that the Destiny series isn't more popular on tumblr.

Like, it's got some following on here, and I know it's a big, loud, fast paced gun game which I get isn't everyone's vibe, but even if you literally never play the game and only read the lore online, it still has:

A hell of a lot of representation - I'm talking gender identities, ethnicities, sexualities, this game is full of representation

Honestly just some really great storytelling - the lorebook A Man With No Name is a personal favourite of mine

Himbos (looking at you, Saint)

Sugar daddies (Calus and the Winnower)

Guy with a british accent for the people who used to be obsessed with sherlock

Uldren Sov, an absolute soft boi

Saint and Osiris, who are literally just an old gay married couple

Eris Morn, a great (in my opinion) representation of trauma and grief (the end of the Memory of Sai Mota quest where the spirits start to leave but she tells them to stay and says she needs them is a good representation of unhealthy and self destructive coping mechanisms)

A redeemed villain who is now a very good lad (Mithrax)

A cool witch queen and her trans brother

A wise cracking rogue

Ghost, who is basically just a puppy dog if he was a robot birthed by god who gives you superpowers

Devs who really seem to care about not only making a great game, but also seem like great people irl (Bungie CEO was gassed at a BLM protest a couple of months ago)

So yeah. Stan Destiny.

I swear if these games came out in 2012 tumblr would've been all over them

Who needs a video game when you can just break quarantine and find a lead pipe in the street

When You Need to Replenish Your Stock 🛒 (W/ @domgoldofficial)

Give me asks or imma get outta this site for good

Guys I lost my eyes I mayyyyy be panicking

Happy Mother’s Day to Janus Sanders 💛🖤

The Dr. Pepper man is gay and you can’t tell me otherwise

I don’t wanna be greedy with this wonderful information, so imma show you guys the math to find Deceits cane height:

Based on these calculations, it seems like Janus’ cane is similar to a Shepherds cane.

Interesting.

Uhhh sorry to my mutuals 😅

Does anyone else have that one friend whose sleep schedule is like an ever-evolving mystery? One day they’ll appear to be asleep for the entire 16 hours that you’re awake, but the next three they won’t appear to actually sleep at all. Sometimes they appear to be on Australian time, other times their schedule has adjusted to somewhere in the middle of the Pacific ocean. (I call this Cthulhu time.) You go a week without seeing them and you have no idea if they’re just really busy, dead, or if their sleep has simply synced up to the exact hours you’re awake and online. The only indication that they’re still in this mortal coil is vague posts about grocery shopping that pop up on their blogs at 4:12AM.
