Scariest part of Mata Nui Online Game

[marciliedonato]

Maybe the real scare... Was the quality in episode 2 of Uzumaki we met along the way.... 🍥🍥😵‍💫

[moonlitlex]

thinking about it again. 73 yards did NOTHING for me. it's such a nothing episode. you keeping thinking something interesting MIGHT happen and then it never does. there's no payoff but not even in an interesting or satisfying way where that's the point. it has no impact on ruby because it's an erased timeline. it doesn't have any impact on the doctor because he vanishes first thing.

do we learn anything about ruby? no, not really. she doesn't really do anything. she just becomes sort of listless and accepting of her new life, which is probably what most people would do in her position. and then she decides she's there to take down roger ap gwilliam. and then she does. and then the episode just fucking ends. and there aren't really any answers to anything.

that part where kate said the doctor is gone was so ridiculous too. girl no he's not. he lives in donna's house. just go and check. knock on his door. like are we supposed to believe 13.5 and all the other versions of the doctor disappeared too or that he's an asshole and prioritizing his vacation over everything else?

and like, ruby took down roger ap gwilliam and also got like revenge or whatever for that other intern girl who he assaulted but like... that entire timeline was erased. it never happened. and what are we supposed to do with that? in the regular timeline roger ap gwilliam still does nuclear war because ruby isn't there to stop him with her creepy eldritch horror self. yay?

and like. rtd has been hyping this up as the best thing he's ever written? it's quite literally not even fucking close. it's not even close to the best doctor who episode he's ever written, let alone everything else.

but we're promised a welsh folk horror and/or a political drama because of the premise and it literally doesn't deliver on either of them. it abandons the horror premise partway through and it never even gets started on the political drama aspects of the story. it could have just been a character study but this is easily the most boring and flat episode for ruby so far.

and like also i'm sooooooo fucking sorry but everyone talking this episode up for how deep and complex it is and sucking rtd's dick about it is fucking ridiculous. if moffat wrote this episode yall would have rightly called him out for it being all setup and no payoff. but when russell does it its fine? russell is allowed to do all setup and absolutely 0 fucking payoff?? because he's rtd? i swear to god if this episode was written by ANYONE ELSE yall would have torn it to shreds but if nothing happens in an rtd episode it's ok? give me a break

I CAN SENSE YOU

???? WHAT DOES THIS MEAN

[tobisonfire]

Saw your reblog to the “yoo hoo, big summer blowout” clip of Grian and Scar. It’s a reference to the Disney movie Frozen :)

(and it's really funny with the context)

Aww thanks for letting me know!

Just watched the clip and yeah it is funnier lol grians skin really has the same beard and all xd

[faceeeeee]

Did the friends and family of the beta testers ever report them missing or were they just told that they were like.. long term testing TADC?

The second option :)

[bottleofwormjuice]

AH FUCK I FORGOT TO SEND A TRICK OR TREAT ASK TO YOU ON THURSDAY

treat! u get all the leftover candy nobody took <3

[helpimstuckinafandom]

Hate that I like Kol actually

[curseofdelos]

At a point in my fic now where I have several fun scenes to write in a row and I'm very excited <3

[one-winged-dreams]

This is so specific (and self-indulgent!), but one day, I'd like to host a party for my f/os at my grandparents' old pond. Or maybe just chill only with one or a few of them. We'd lounge around and enjoy the early summer weather as we tell each other stories, smelling like sunscreen and fresh air. Maybe some of us try to catch frogs hiding in cattail plants or take a swim to cool off. All I know is, at the end of the day, when the sun dips beneath the horizon, I want to huddle around a campfire with blankets drapped over our shoulders and tell my f/os how much I love and cherish them. 🤎

DUD I'M LITERALLY GOING TO FUCKING CRY, this is so fucking wholesome??? The vibes I'm getting from just the description alone are immaculate, what a beautiful plan. This was so genuinely healing to read.

I think the thoughtfulness of this would be so fucking moving and your f/os would DEFINITELY make sure to reciprocate those expressions of appreciation because they love and cherish YOU just as much.

-->And then I checked in on Victor and Alice, and found Victor had flown off to one of the log benches near the public campfires to nap (I’d seen him get on his broom before, but hadn’t been sure where he was going), and Alice was currently running off to light another campfire somewhere – not entirely sure it was the same one. Now, I had also recently noticed that, for some reason, eating the Three Sisters Chili had NOT actually fulfilled the BBQ tradition for Victor (or Alice, but as she ignores that tradition due to her Loner trait, it didn’t matter so much for her), so I figured I might as well see if roasting some marshmallows over the campfire fulfilled it! Plus it just seemed like a fun activity for the three to do while they waited for it to get dark enough for fireworks. :) I thus sent everyone over to the public campground, woke up Victor, had Smiler light the fire, and tried to set up a marshmallow roast –

Only to discover that neither Victor nor Smiler could get into position to do so. Apparently there was exactly one seat where a Sim could roast marshmallows, and Alice had it. I tried to have Smiler at least play their guitar by the fire, but no dice there either. *frowns at EA* Did you guys really not check if the campfires were properly usable before placing them? Though I guess my game could just be glitchy...this save feels like it’s getting more and more unstable, honestly…

-->With marshmallows off the table for everyone but Alice, and the hour growing late, I figured it was time to do the fireworks and then send everyone home – Victor and Alice WERE getting rather tired, after all. I thus sent the trio back to the rental house, and – after ascertaining they couldn’t properly use the fire pit at the rental either (couldn’t even light that one!) – had Smiler put their three fireworks into the world and got Victor and Alice over to watch as they started lighting them. To my annoyance, while the first firework went off beautifully, neither Victor nor Alice were properly watching – hell, Victor insisted on flying BACK to the public campground to take another nap on the log benches there! Annoyed, I had him hop right back on his broom and return while Smiler got the spark fountain firework ready – fortunately, this one went off without a hitch too, and THIS time Victor and Alice took the time to watch it, at least partially fulfilling the tradition for them. Once everybody was done with that one, I had Smiler move onto the final mortar shot –

Aaaand it proved to be a dud. Meh. *shakehead* Well, at least they got two good fireworks out of the three! And the tradition was fulfilled enough that everyone had a good time. *nods*

-->And with THAT, it was finally back home, so Victor and Alice could get some sleep. Or, well, so Alice could get some sleep – I sent her straight up to bed, while Victor got sent to the barbecue on the back porch to make some grilled fruit. Reason? The BBQ tradition is one he loves because of his traits, and thus I really wanted him to fulfill it. :) He managed to stay awake until he completed the dish, happily – and even got Cooking level 7 from it, good for him. :D I then had him magically fix all the broken wind turbines (again, yes) before sending him to bed. Smiler, meanwhile, cleaned out more spoiled food from the fridge (while I put the chili and the grilled fruit in it – and grabbed their plasma fruit back OUT of it for them), cleared a twisted tendril from the back yard, and gave Shadow a brush before ending the playsession jamming out on their guitar, with Shadow, and later Shock, as their enthusiastic audience. :)

And there we have it! Bit of a difficult playsession at times, but ultimately a rewarding one – it’s always nice to send the trio out and about to see new places! And even if I don’t plan to get them a horse or anything like that, it was nice to visit Chestnut Ridge and get a look at the place. :) Next time, the gang heads out to a different desert world to do some more food sales -- see you then!

[March/1 of ?] Can you feel that? Oh shit!

Have you ever felt that, as an online culture, we "backed" the wrong horse in the memetic zeitgeist? Right now you're probably wondering what the hell is it that I'm talking about specifically, but rest easy: I am indeed talking about how Disturbed's "Down with the Sickness" fucking sucks and how we should've memefied "Stupify" instead.

---- The argument is simple: Better overall instrumental performance AND way funnier/more annoying vocal stylings. If you think I'm high on fumes or something, hear for yourself.

---- If you're listening to crappy butt-rock, at least go for the track that has something going on for it throughout, instead of just one mildly interesting hissy-fit on a song that also includes a skit that sounds like the best acting Robert Downey Jr. ever did, it's all I'm saying. ---- On second thought, Dan Donegan is a "Cancel culture" whingy shithead that makes me embarrassed that I use the same guitar brand as he does and David Draiman is an all-around garbage person, so I think that's way funnier (even if unintentionally) than anything they have ever put to tape. Here's a cool song by an awesome band that I still love instead...

Anyway, I'll probably go back to writing about anime and Fire Emblem because that's all it ever seems to interest people when I type out these journal entries/brain droppings. Love a duck!

[lillikoifish]

My most contentious opinion in the anime convention scene is that anyone selling blind boxes is preying upon gambling addictions and should be ashamed. The amount of copium, straight up ignorance, and outright hostility some artists have treated me to when i tell them yes, having someone pay for something they dont outright know what is inside, is gambling? Too damn much, too damn often.

black mirror is one of those shows where the worse it gets the less I can understand what I ever saw in it
