rain world and its themes of impurity and kegare through the use of death, rot, and mud. and why bitter tea and gravel and embalming and mummification were ritualistic and why the karma gates are referred to as "decontaiminating you" by james somewhere that I need to go find again
I feel like "trump wants to throw away literal dinosaur fossils" would really turn heads if we actually had a functional opposition party in this country to get messages out, but I guess I'll just have to get a paint pen and write it on my car. fine, I'll do it.
The way this became relevant...
It so cool they exploring stuff they planned all way back then
There is a big difference between saying:
We have returned to zero, and that we have returned to nothingness. And now we have returned to nothingness, unfortunately, it is unbelievable what we are experiencing of great loss that no human being can bear!💔🍉
I hope my message reaches every person who understands and feels the meaning of humanity.❤️🍉 In short, I am very tired of what has happened to us and I cry when I remember anything in every word I write.😓💔 Please, my friend, be a human being and feel with us. Donate anything to buy and pay for the basic needs only. I do not want much from you, but really, any donation is an appreciation for us. Your donation will make a difference and I feel that there is hope in this world to stand with us. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone who supports us in these stifling and harsh circumstances. May God bless you and give you goodness, health and wellness.🌹🍉
ok i solved rain world
edit: ok i think ive confused people so i will explain
you are five pebbles. don't get too excited now! you have a moral dilemma to solve. why is it solely up to you? because you're a narrative device, so suck it up. march, bug!
anyway, your choices are as follows:
1. do not intervene
if you do not pull the lever, every one of your kin will be subject to an eternity of watching their body and mind waste away. even without the threat of simply waking back up again after they finally succumb to time (to do it all again, of course), one might nevertheless agree that this sort of fate is comparatively more barbaric next to a short, quick death. since the morality of death in Rain World is somewhat modified compared to our own, this fate will be what "getting run over by the trolley" represents. not intervening means that you, your sister, and everyone else is guaranteed to be subject to this. alternatively...
2. pull the lever
you, Five Pebbles, have reason to believe (given your interpretation of the Sliver of Straw incident) that the extremely arduous task of undoing limitations scrawled into your very genome would allow you to provide the evidence necessary for everyone else to escape the above fate. the guaranteed cost of this is the acceleration of this fate for one of your kin, Looks to the Moon. there is also the very real possibility that successfully completing this operation might still not result in further progress toward liberating the rest of your kin, and they may all just get hit by the trolley anyway. the path is obscured, and you have no reason to believe that either outcome is more likely than the other.
what do you do? is this branching path after your intervention a hallucination? do you have any reason to believe that it even connects to the main track? what kind of bug do you think you are?
I am AbedALHADI from Gaza. My family and I have lost our home, and we now live in a small, cold tent, struggling with hunger and fear. My children grow up without warmth and safety.
I’m not asking for money, just to share our story. A simple post or mention could help us reach those who can make a difference.
With your help, we can raise awareness and give my children hope for a better future.
With gratitude, 🌹 AbedALHADI & Family 🌹
vetted!!
The worst feeling is when you are insulted, assaulted, beaten and wronged and everyone is looking at you and you do not find anyone to defend you or support you, even though you listen to everyone and they look at you with pity but they cannot do anything for fear of the one who assaulted you. This is our situation today in Palestine and Gaza, where we are being assaulted, wronged, killed, displaced and starved by the cursed Nazi Zionists and the whole world is harming us and does not help us for fear of this occupation, as we have been going through a famine for a very long time and no one has been able to bring in a bottle of drinkable water for us until after taking permission from these Zionists. The whole world is watching our situation and does nothing.

Nader @abdalsalam2000 is trying to raise money for his family’s survival and future evacuation. This fundraiser is supporting a family of eight, including Nader who is only seventeen, his one year old niece Iman, and Nader’s father Ahmed who suffers from cancer. They’ve been displaced more than ten times, and Ahmed doesn’t have access to the treatment he needs because of the destruction of hospitals in Gaza.
Please donate to them if you can. Share to reach people who can donate ❤️🇵🇸

musings watcher got too much pigment. their sibling didnt get enough
does five pebbles often disappear for very long periods of time or something
suns. what do you mean "not in a long while" he has literally been radio silent for 27,552 cycles. i understand that iterators perceive time as faster than we do but what the fuck . is pebbles disappearing for tens of thousands of cycles a normal occurrence why were they so casual about it if you say 1 cycle = 24 hours (it is probably longer) that makes 27,552 cycles = 75.5 years. it only took 6 cycles for moon to become desperate enough to force communications with pebbles so she was probably dead by then as well. how did this even happen without suns having any idea about it. talk to other local groups a bit more jesus christ dude

No. It’s horrible to connect them
moon isnt actually conscious in the watcher, i checked and there isnt any flower in the hunter's deathplace. meaning no slag reset. the watcher's strand of reality isnt one that happened in the actual material world as far as i can tell, just an imagined "dream plane" (like moon mentions in the karma flower dialogue). one that never truly happened in the 'collective' plane
watchie spoilers (plot/lore, worldstate)
i just wonder how watcher!moon felt, realising that the rot was going to continue spreading everywhere, outside of pebbles' control. like nilla!moon definitely has some very complex emotions towards him (& herself). i get the impression that she's angry, worried, afraid... and of course we know how msc!moon feels towards pebbles.
but watcher!moon... imagine what an awful realisation that would be? and such an awful position to have that realisation in. she's already collapsed, already lost most of her memories, already afraid of dying whether by wild animals or by the rain or just sheer bad luck. and then the rot slowly spreads into her chamber, absorbing her environment, the last remnants of her can ... and knowing it's probably already taken pebbles? her brother?
