i know in universe it wouldnt make a ton of sense to sever any other job outside of Mysterious Office Job (tm) but imagine how insane it would be to sever someone in like, customer service. fucking imagine being stuck in customer service hell for your entire life. horrible even thinking abt it

so the tiktok ban was literally just propaganda for the trump administration. like. we all agree with that right. this is just laughably transparent. the ban wasn't even 24 hours. not even a whole day. to quote my infinitely funnier mutual from Discord, "Misha Collins was bisexual longer than TikTok was banned"

so @creatingblackcharacters made a post about a Black character with a bouquet of roses as her afro, and I wanted to make an attempt at it

[I.D. Digital lineless art of a dark-skinned Black woman in profile from the shoulders up, her afro composed of roses in various shades of pink and red. Her head is tilted slightly upward, and she closes her eyes and smiles faintly. She has an earring in the shape of a rose leaf. The image is cell shaded with blocks of color of various hues, making the lighting fairly dramatic. The background is pale orange, with several multi-colored stripes running across it. End I.D.]

Regarding vampirism and goth culture--I'm really sick of seeing only white vampires! iwtv is the second show i've ever seen that has Black vampires (the first being the fucking muppets), and I really want to get into more stories with vampires who have skin tones other than #ffffff--one, do you have any recommendations (it's fine if not)? and two, i want to create a couple vampire ocs, and i was going to reference exsanguinated dead bodies for the changes in skin tone and pallor, but i just wanted to check to see if there was anything glaringly wrong with my plan? if this is a dumb question please ignore it lol. <33 much love

I think your plan makes sense! I've mentioned it before, but the one time "ashy" Black skin would make sense is in the Black undead, and instead people make them paler skinned 😭 You don't have to change their skin tone to change their pallor! Do not do that!

I keep seeing the cloning theory posts and it's slowly starting to become more plausible to me but I really really really really don't want that to be the twist like at all. I just feel like for as grounded and high concept as this show has been, ending it off with "and btw they were cloning people" would be such a massive disappointment

you could say that the world’s richest man was stupid and impulsive enough to do a nazi salute on stage twice without considering the backlash, but really what I think happened is the world’s richest man implicitly or explicitly calculated that in the current political and medial environment he could do a nazi salute on stage twice and not suffer any adverse consequences. which is worse. a lot worse.

the president of the united states admitted MULTIPLE times on CAMERA that he and his tech bro buddy rigged the election but we’re letting that slide? why? like “oh ur just a conspiracy theorist” HE SAID IT NOT ME!!!

"fahrenheit is better" "celsius is better" look there is an easy way to go about this. split the difference along this axis:

Fahrenheit -> You are complaining about how hot it is

Celsius -> You are complaining about how cold it is

disco elysium inspired portraits for severance :]

its true that complimenting strangers is fun and nice. people will go "awwww really" when you say their hair is cute. people will go "thanks" and straighten up a little when you compliment the colors they're wearing. people will say "oh yeah i got it at (place)" if you say a charm on their bag is cool. people really do appreciate it and its very whimsy and you can just do this for free

the goal for this year and for every year is to be kind and also to stop being scared of literally everything
