I do like the idea that stanley would punch the narrator if he ever saw him face to face but I also enjoy the idea that stanley would try to scamper off and hide from the narrator. the narrator tries to say hi and stanley scampers off like a hamster to get back to his office.
I don’t think he’s afraid of the narrator but I do think he would be weirded out by another physical person being around him after having been only around nonphysical entities for a good long while
#the stanley parable ultra deluxe#the stanley parable#tspud#tsp#sorry I’m putting all my thoughts right into the main tags#mom said it’s my turn to be annoying in the main tags and by god I’m about to be the most annoying crow#do I think the slapping or punching the narrator bit is overused? yea a bit#but I do think it’s funny sometimes. tho I think more people should make them have dumb slap fights#BUT ALSO I cannot help but imagine stanley doing everything in his very little power to get away from him#and the narrator being like STANLEY WHY ARE YOU RUNNING insert that one vine lol#my god that would be a fun lil comic to draw I should do that

replaying dragon age inquisition is just an exercise in “the rebel mages would not fucking do that”
#da#my posts#specifically the hostile ones hanging out in the hinterlands for no good reason.#at least they gave the crazy hostile templars a motivation. a really weak one but still. At least they have a goal.#‘kill at mages. don’t gaf about anyone else’ ok. fine.#‘kill everyone you see for some reason. we need to steal their belongings I guess????’ insane. what the hell.#the could have at least done some blood magic about it. it would have been a boring repeat of da2 themes but at least there would be themes?#it’s just so STUPID. especially coming off of a fresh da2 playthrough.#like there’s some dumb stuff in da2 to give you an excuse to fight both mages and templars as generic npcs don’t get me wrong.#but not this much. and unlike da2 you and your companions comment on it as if it makes any sort of sense lol#also I hate that they decided that the chantry explosion killed a bunch of people (which is not supported at all by either the environments#or dialogue of da2 btw. the game is mainly concerned about anders murdering elthina not randos lol)#but that will come in later.#anyway. every note I find in the game from the mages is so insane. just found the area where the templars burned down a house with mages#locked inside. but because both sides have to be bad for dai plot reasons#the mages killed the peasants that lived in the house for damn reason lmao. AFTER robbing them on the road earlier.#insane choices from the writing team on this one.#what were you trying to SAYYYY#like I’m ok with the mages being a bit brutal. that happens in war. but there’s like. reasons? usually?#like as much as orsino turning himself into a flesh beast is insane and weird both-sides-ism plot device.#at least they tried to give him a reason (even if it didn’t make sense in the context of hawke and co absolutely destroying the templars he#was so convinced were going to kill them all)#the hinterlands mages genuinely have no reason to attack random passersby.#ESPECIALLY SINCE IM PLAYING A MAGE.#like?????? hello I am one of you. how the hell do you even know I’m not one of the rebels.#sorry anyway I’m upsetti spaghetti.

on that post cy made in regards to problematic characters… tbh i don’t think i make problematic characters. not because they don’t do bad things but just the words “problematic” and “characters” do not exist in my mind or vocabulary in conjunction**. i have multifaceted fucks that make a variety of decisions that make sense for their arc and their story. they are also fictional people. yes they can kill people and be manipulative idc they’re not real lmao
#please remove the word problematic from your vocabulary it is stopping you from being able to do anything#let alone tell a story#my characters aren’t meow meows either i just hate this weird ass lang thats developed around multi faced characters#that seeks to dumb them down to their bare bones elements#it’s one thing to do it for a bit but so many of y’all say it with your whole chest and i’m like#*scooby do confusion noise*#because you can’t write a story if you aren’t willing to commit to your characters doing whatever it is to make the story go#you can’t sanitize what makes a story good#fuck#ren hot cakes

2024 reads / storygraph
Greta & Valdin
contemporary fiction following two gay siblings who live together in central auckland
Greta, in her 20s, getting her masters and living on a shitty academic salary, getting over an unrequited crush, and exploring a new relationship
Valdin, in his 30s, who quit science for a tourism show, whose ex (he still isn’t over) is in his orbit again when work sends him to Argentina, and has to confront what he wants for his future
navigating adulthood, OCD, a messy eccentric Māori/Russian family
#Greta & Valdin#aroaessidhe 2024 reads#oh this is great. also so weird/familiar reading about people in nz especially cities i am familiar with#I enjoyed the quirky writing style and I really loved the central sibling relationship!#The plot is just kinda a lot of hanging out with various people and then having deep conversations with them. and repeat#(but also nothing ever getting SUPER in depth)#(often about things that they’ve somehow never talked about in the decades of being a family despite the amount of yapping they do?)#but not a criticism really that's kinda the point of the book i guess lol! I think it worked for the most part#It is quite unstructured which I didn’t mind for the most part but the end was a bit random?#there’s suddenly short chapters from other character’s POVs which was a bit whiplashy#especially being in first person (by the time I felt used to the new character’s voice the 3 page chapter would be over)#Also maybe I’m dumb and missed something but what was going on with their mum’s possible affair?#like they were talking about it at the end but… i was confused if there was any conclusion drawn there. lol#there’s a review that’s like i hated this and all the product placement why do we need to know you got kapiti ice cream & went to [x] gelat#i just need you to know that we are like that about ice cream. they all have different vibes & giving that detail is just like...flavour#anyway yeah i thought it was good overall!#wlw books#mlm books

ghh i hate the anxiety paralysis loop
#marzi speaks#i’m catastrophizing abt this email a bit bc of course i am#and i think part of the reason i’m so overwhelmed so easily rn is bc i’m due for a shower#but i don’t want to take the shower before i write the email because if i do then . i don’t know it feels Wrong#worst part of anxiety is when you can see that ur brain is clearly being irrational. but that does nothing to minimize the stress#like ur caught in some sort of trap and all you can think about is how stupid and dumb the trap is. but you still can’t get out#i need to look at my psych referrals again. but that’s for a later day one thing at a time

I really need to get serious about personal projects again
#I think I said something like this last year too lol#currently in a weird headspace about it#the biggest reason why I lost focus on them was bc I prioritized engaging in fandom#(something that I never really did when I was focused on publishing a few years back)#so part of me feels like in order to make considerable progress on projects again I need to cut myself off from fandom#and I kinda have been weening myself off a bit from animanga but not really for that reason#it was mostly bc I was getting overwhelmed by how much I was consuming and I wanted to appreciate things fully#I don’t think I’d cut myself off from fandom completely either I’d still try to keep up with stuff#but the idea of not engaging in fandom anymore kinda.. scares me?#idk I feel like a major loser admitting this lol#it just feels like I’d lose a lot of connections with people#and would lose a lot of the love I have for stories if I’m not actively interacting with them :(#and then there’s also that stupid feeling of being a ‘fake fan’ because I’m not dedicating every single second of free time to fandom#which is dumb bc like I have a life and need to make money yknow I got things to do#im just Stressed bc I’m at such a critical stage career wise and im getting closer to 26 so hhhhh healthcare coverage will be up in the air#so I really can’t afford to dawdle#there’s just so much I wanna do and while I’m not necessarily racing to get it done I still want to take advantage of the time I have#but it also sucks feeling like I’m giving up a part of myself to progress on another part of myself#I don’t think any of this makes sense sorry I just needed to dump my thoughts bc I am Terrified™️#anyway personal projects! gotta get back to those !#blahblahbills#delete later

one of my favorite parts of rereading the republic is how fucking petty plato can be
sure, sure, there’s a lot else going on about what makes a good leader/governance/society but so much of it is plato going so anyway, fuck that cephalus dude in PARTICULAR (and ps this isn’t just my opinion so don’t come at me, this is SOCRATES talking hey guys, did i mention he was my mentor? anyway “socrates” says cephalus is a virgin who can’t even drive and we should all throw rocks at him)
#i’ve been marking up a new copy for yj reasons and it will never stop being funny#he’s just subtweeting okay#there is something very charming and comforting in how humanity does not change#we can be very smart and very dumb and so incredibly wonderful alongside truly horrifying#at the end of the day we are the same petty and amusing contradictions we have always been i guess#and i really do find some hope in that#plato was a messy bitch who loved drama AND a little bit of a genius#the duality of man! or something! whatever i’m feeling good about people tonight we are adorable sometimes

Nothing like thought consuming worry over something completely asinine to remind you anxiety is super stupid
#shut up sarah#y’all when you have one realization and your brain is like#okay now we have to fixate on this fuck whatever important shit you’re doing#you now need to play out every situation as to how people will be mad and hate you#which is stupid and obviously not fucking true#but alas brain has decreed it will take a lot of distraction and time to get over this one#by that I mean 30 mins later and I’m almost back to normal#dumb shit. fuck anxiety#I love playing and scripting the scenario and just. my brain refusing to accept the whole. every iteration of this the worst that could#happen is a bit of awkwardness. like. no actually being mad

“he let the intrusive thoughts win”
PLEASE for the love of god learn what intrusive thoughts are I hate it when people say this oh my god
#intrusive thoughts#my sibling and I were just talking about how frustrating it is#like no eating an entire tub of ice cream is not ‘letting the intrusive thoughts win’ please be serious#my sibling was comparing it to ppl being like ‘I’m a little bit ocd’ or whatever like that shit is so dumb#‘I’m a little obsessive compulsive disorder’ is what you’re saying like do you even hear yourself????#words have meanings btw#I get that the ppl saying this stuff don’t have bad intentions or anything tho#it’s not like if you do this then you suck and I hate you lol#I just wish ppl would think a little bit more about what they’re saying sometimes

American: “Hey has anyone else had this experience?”
Non-American: “Have you considered that not everyone is American? Do you know that your experiences are not universal? This post is disgustingly American-centric, you stupid ethnocentric nationalistic fat racist-”
#Meow.#head in hands#Bro I’m sure dealing with everything being Americanized or made with primarily Americans in mind is frustrating.#And I know there are genuinely people who seem to think that America is the only and/or best country in the world#Idk why you gotta take that out on some random guy talking about a specific store tho#Gonna be real it can get a bit discouraging when I’m trying to be considerate of others just to get shut down#For being dumb cuz idk. School never made me memorize the list of which companies are American exclusive and which have locations globally?#‘Uhhh yeah Americans‚ we still have Kmarts open in Australia. The world doesnt revolve around you <3’ shut the fuck up#Is it that unreasonable? To be like ‘woah I didnt know that store was still in a different country. They’re all shut down around here!’#Is expressing surprise at newly acquired information a USAmerican only thing?#do YOU guys keep up with which stores are closing in other countries?#is that the normal thing to do?
