Have you guys seen this

it will never not be the coolest thing to me that this game took the crystal, a staple of this series, and not only made her a proper character in her own right, but also made her complicated and nuanced in a way i never expected The Crystal to be

(old gif) i love you, hermie

"average suburban democrat wants half the administration to rot in prison until the end of time" actualy just statistical error. Average dem wants them all to burn in unending fire. Bodhisattva Georg, who is filled with total compassion for all beings, is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

13oct - ‘the curious and quite dreadful sensation of being forgotten’

adding to this since i love this scene's symbolism so much: the framing of the wol from thordan's pov looks exactly the same as zenos's framing when varis asks, "you would kill me just for that?"

It's actually the confidence of a *mediocre* white man, the race matters. And Olivia Nuzzi isn't channeling that confidence. She's channeling a specific kind of white femininity that's normalized in white supremacy.

this would have been a month-long scandal in 2011

THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT is part of an honest-to-goodness mini-genre of movies in the 1990s that you could sum up as, "what if the president was horny?"

friends and the importance of head pats #frankenstein

a solid 8-9 but not by hiding and sneaking around; hestia’s just THAT good at acting like an NPC

Remember that cutscene after fighting Thordan where asks what you are? Yeah….. I’m not over that.

CHECK OUT A VERY COOL THING I AM DOING WITH MY VERY COOL FRIENDS

it’s integral to the thancred dating sim route that he crashes out, cheats on four women, tries to kill himself, comes back like six months later, yells at you, fucks hilda, and then doesn’t come to stormblood.

This is bullshit. "absolutely no genAI in games" is the middle ground. "how many years in jail should Sam Altman get for knowingly stealing all data ever" is the somewhat more extreme stance I personally adopt.

Artoirel: I can provide for you. Haurchefant: He doesn't love you like I do. Aymeric: Please don’t text him back. We can build something together. Heavensward Thancred: why the fuck did you ditch minfilia in the sewers

my sweet creature..

LRP this too

Genuinely, as someone who plays several live service games I always have a checklist that's like - Ask yourself if you're having fun - Never have a "forever game", play or read or do other stuff alongside it - Don't set paid subs to auto-renew - Think about what you want, not what the game wants

i have this drawing i want to make thats overly ambitious but god maybe. Maybe

Why am I so against generative AI in games? Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

1st of all lmao 2nd, unless something has changed since I worked for Bux, ppl who work at locations inside of Targets/other stores don’t get the employee benefits (like health insurance) of ppl who work at regular locations. that’s what this campaign is directing traffic to during the strike.

losing my mind over youtube's suggested reply for this comment

while i’m still feeling salty about the state of the beauty industry, i think it’s also kind of racist for people to look at a korean product and assume it’s good quality purely because it’s by a korean brand

I have complete faith in my health secretary, Robert Fungus Kennedy

Men are not inherently violent; some men have learned they can get away with anything because of permissive power structures, and they proceed to do so. The issue is with permissive power structures.

This thread. I think it's incredibly important to remember that the TERF fragility/rabidity started to take off right around the height of me too, and the main message they had was "men are inherently violent." They targeted trans WOMEN, while at the same time excusing actual violence from cis men.

MeToo was intentionally co-opted by the type of 'feminist' that berates and abuses people for not conforming to gender, while insisting that a uterus makes a woman... 1/2

This idea that #metoo was a temporary piece of insanity that happened because America was too woke... Fuck you. It was a temporary moment in time when people decided, for the first time, that 20 women were finally equal to one man.

居ました！！！！！！！ 見ていだいてありがとうございます😭

really hate how much of beauty social media these days is just: hey, did you know you’re DIRTY and STINKY? why aren’t you doing this 15-step skin care routine so that you won’t be DIRTY and STINKY? are you not ashamed??

okay sorry i try to not look at or think about ffxiv drama from the other evil site because it is exhausting and i simply do not care but someone calling the girl that was edating 8 guys at the same time "boyfriend limit cut" is too fucking funny to not post about here

yesterday I learned that there's a whole market segment of "masculine rosaries / rosaries for men," if you wanna know how the cope is going for MRA types who are trying to work their way up to Catholic cosplay

this doesn’t get brought up a lot in canon post-ARR or especially fanon, but y’shtola was THE most radical scion. peace for eorzea meant repeatedly calling out merlwyb on her bullshit and advocating for the beast tribes and she was doing this well before alisaie got a kobold friend.

Ysayle is the only antagonist in the entire game who won and she’s the smartest one we ever had. She’s the one w the most direct parallels to the wol and the only one with a genuine redemption arc even if it was fumbled in the 11th hour bc they didn’t know what to do w her. She should be a Scion.
