Can We Talk About How Burger Was Ready To Destroy The Boat He Bought A WEEK AGO So They Could Get Out

Just so we’re clear

supporting Brian’s right to do whatever he wants in his career and understanding that he’s still going to continue making delightfully weird content

and

being sad that we’re not gonna get more of the specific weird content he produces on polygon and/or being unsettled by the change in general

aren’t contradictory, and

Polygon is a website with 5 other video producers who are still around doing their best to produce excellent content, and a lot of Brian’s content wouldn’t have been possible without them either

and

Polygon as a website has been severely under-utilising these other video producers and has been producing fewer and fewer of the kinds of video series the fanbase fell in love with, and have been leaning more heavily on Brian-led content, such that they’re going to have to make some significant changes if they’re going to maintain their popularity

aren’t mutually exclusive opinions either

Files spiral around him, glowing ethereal electric green, a whirlwind not unalike to leaves whipped up by the wind from the forest floor. One by one, he sees them start to fizzle out...

so uh. i was reading through gotta get to the bottom of this by hemlock_sunset on ao3, which is a fantastic fic and i love it very much, and i was gonna do something normal like comment but instead... i drew this??? because i am a sucker for strong imagery apparently??? and they did the most recent chapter in entirely coding/fragmented thoughts and gahh i love it

took me an hour and a half, on ibispaint x on my phone. used a pose tool called easyposer.

[IMAGE ID: Vang0 Bang0, a man with bob-length blond hair, one cybernetic eye, and a mustache, floats in a green techy-looking space. Around him fly papers and files, which appear to be disintegrating. He is wearing shorts and a loose-fitting t-shirt, along with knee-height socks and a choker. The entire drawing is done in monochromatic green and has a staticky-looking, faint overlay. /END ID.]

adhd student: i love learning and i actually hunger for knowledge, but the way the school system currently operates doesn’t work well for people with brains like mine. i am capable of maintaining acceptable and even good grades, but it takes about 3x the time and effort of the average student. all my life i have been receiving messages, overt and subtle, that i am deficient, lazy, and/or weird for my inability to perform well in that environment, and my self-worth has been utterly decimated as a result. 

what ppl hear:

polygon, what does soon mean. what do you mean by soon, polygon

“I bore this burden. For you.”

Editing Unraveled episodes to look like different types of media: “I read all 337 books in Skyrim so that you don’t have to” as a found footage horror tape.

until the very last line of this i thought this was about the great gatsby and i was Supremely Confused

Y’know that bit from Gil and Gilbert where Pat just picks Brian up and holds him over his shoulder for a good three minutes and when he puts him down somehow Brian is the winded one? Daisy and Jon
