Fun piece of twilight princess lore i realized tends to get glazed over a lot. Zelda gave her entire spirit to save Midna about halfway thru the game so Midna wouldnt die to Light Exposure. Midna and Link assume Zelda just Died but whats actually going on is Zeldas spirit is just, Hanging out inside Midna, totally aware the whole time. And she even says after going back to her own body towards the end of the game that her and Midna were One and she KNOWS. Everything.

So while Link doesnt know Zelda well, Zelda has been unintentionally spying on him and Midna for months through Midnas eyes. Unable to talk or interact.

And I think that could be a fun dynamic to explore with them. I would like to write one day how their journey back to castle town would be like together after Midna left them stranded on top of a temple that has no easy way down. That door inside the boss room that leads back into the temple is LOCKED, I checked.

As gen-AI becomes more normalized (Chappell Roan encouraging it, grifters on the rise, young artists using it), I wanna express how I will never turn to it because it fundamentally bores me to my core. There is no reason for me to want to use gen-AI because I will never want to give up my autonomy in creating art. I never want to become reliant on an inhuman object for expression, least of all if that object is created and controlled by tech companies. I draw not because I want a drawing but because I love the process of drawing. So even in a future where everyone’s accepted it, I’m never gonna sway on this.

it's extremely critical that you see the photo of the perp walk for luigi mangione as being propaganda. i've seen so many people wave it off and instead fawn over his looks. and trust me, i know it ended up being kind of pathetic and weird - but please don't brush it off as a "modelling opportunity" for him. it's a fucking terrifying message the police are sending.

i want to make a few comparisons here, in case you're not from the US or familiar with why the perp walk thing is something to pay attention to. just to set the groundwork for why this is a purposeful, unusual, and cruel act by the nyc police - for why this is not a common occurrence and for why that matters.

the prosecution alleges the show of force is due to the charge of "terrorism." for comparison, in june 2015, tsarnaev was found guilty for the boston marathon bombing, which killed 3 people and injured hundreds. his actions are considered to be an act of domestic terrorism. i have spent the last hour looking through google for pictures of similar to mangione's perp walk - and so far, i have found zero. i also just do not personally remember a moment like that, despite living in boston at the time.

they allege that luigi is a stone-cold killer who carried out a longterm plan, making him particularly dangerous. again for comparison: in nyc, recently cory martin was found guilty of the killing of brandy odom. the murder was planned and premeditated to steal insurance money. and yet no staged perp walk. why didn't her life matter enough for a "show of force"?

but mangione gets paraded by a veritable army of police officers as if he is a rabid animal. for a single citizen who allegedly killed one other single citizen, the "largest perp walk ever" occurs.

so what is the "strong message" that the mayor and the police were trying to send here? the mayor speaks as if mangione is already convicted of terrorism. there is a very thin number of people who feel threatened by the CEO's death. none of us felt like mangione needs to be under massive armed guard.

the message is that you shouldn't resist. they are trying to "make an example" of him - that if you behave badly and kill a single rich person, you'll be treated as if you killed hundreds of people. you will be treated worse than a man who was found guilty of terrorism. you will be considered guilty without trial. the message is that the rich are a protected class, and you cannot touch them without massive punishment. they are trying to prevent a revolution by showing dominance and force against you.

the message is that the police are a puppet of the wealthy and that the law is not equally applied across class disparity. it is "some are more equal than others." it is "one life is more precious than another."

the show of force wasn't for luigi. it was for us. it was a warning. they are trying to remind us who is really in control.

[ID: a Gravity Falls comic. Stan and Ford are talking to each other and frowning, while from offscreen, Fiddleford asks: "Stanford?"

The Stans react simultaneously, with Stan saying: "Yeah?" and Ford saying: "Yes?"

Ford begins to shout at Stan, who holds up his hands with a nervous, apologetic smile. The camera zooms in on Fiddleford, in the background with an awkward, distressed expression. The caption reads: "Actually was talking to Stanley." End ID.]

my snowflake opinion is that subtitles should always be on by default, and their incorporation should be considered an essential part of the design process tbh
