cn alcohol

I’m hanging out at Stardust. It’s book release day, a time to celebrate. My friends are here, getting drunk with me. Getting late, getting drunk, getting friendly with everyone.

Sometime after midnight, the horned hybrid with the white hair I watched dance a few weeks ago walks up to me: “I heard you were looking for information on Combat Androids?”

“Yeah,” I slur through the alcohol. “I was looking for an android called Leon Dekker, though that’s kinda done now.”

“Oh, I could have helped you with that,” they smirk. “I knew him.”

“Really?” I ask, suddenly sober. “How?”

“We used to date for a while.”

[Credits roll

Back to scene]

“Wait, what did you say his name was?” they ask.

“Leon Dekker.”

“Oh, okay, nevermind then.”

And Then It Is Monday - Why Sunday's plan did not (and could not) work

So normally I don't really make longer analysis posts, but I kept seeing people on social media outright supporting Sunday's actions in 2.2, and I wrote something out about why I personally think that Sunday's plan is wrong. I don't know if this is an issue with tumblr as well, given that the people I saw supporting him were on different forms of social media, but regardless.

Before I begin, I'd like to pose a reminder that the opinions in this are mine and mine alone. If you agree, awesome! If not, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it, so long as you're respectful! I have no idea if this is well written or will make any logical sense, but here we go!

(Spoilers for the 2.2 Trailblazer quest under the cut, if that wasn't already obvious)

So the first thing to get off the table: I feel Sunday is a very sympathetic villain, but a villain nonetheless. I understand the people that sympathize with him. I do too, to an extent. He was raised on unhealthy ideals and the belief that he was a "religious figure," one that people looked up to. Other people were allowed to just be, but Sunday always had to be better. He loved his sister, and the people around him, and he wanted to make a better world for them.

But that does not excuse what he did. Making a 'better world' can never come at the cost of taking away people's free will, because that world will never be "better". That's where Sunday's plan falls apart.

Because, yes, there are shitty people in the world, and yes bad things happen. Would it be amazing if we could stop all the bad things from happening ever again, and make the world a much better place? Yes! It would! I would love to live in a world where I don't have to fear for my life and my freedom for an assortment of reasons! But that world doesn't exist--in real life or on Penacony--, and getting it to exist shouldn't be the result of subjugating and controlling other people, because that in and of itself is violence. Albeit a different kind of violence, but violence nonetheless.

Not to mention that things like Sunday's plan and the concept of forcing everyone to act a certain way just to fit this "better world" to me almost serves as a condemnation of human nature and of the very act of choice itself. Your better world starts by saying that some choices are bad, so those choices get taken away, but where does it end? What if someone in charge views a harmless choice as a bad one, and takes away that one in return? Does it stop there, or does it continue, until no one at all is allowed to make any decisions, except those in charge? Who, really, does that benefit?

Consequences for certain choices exist. Generally, society says murder is bad (except for specific circumstances such as self-defense, which technically at that point is no longer even considered murder (at least where I live, it may be different in other areas, but I'm basing this off of my own experience)), so there is a concrete consequence to people murdering people--assuming that they don't get away with it. It doesn't stop people from murdering people, because the liberty of choice is still there, but it shows that just because you can do something doesn't mean you should or that you will escape without consequence.

People are going to do bad things. That is, unfortunately, how humans are. But our responsibility lies in holding ourselves accountable and in promoting growth and healing. That is how you build a better world. Not trapping everyone inside a dream world without any care for their feelings or beliefs, but in getting people the help they need, in fostering a society of positive change and human connection.

And that is why, as "golden" as Sunday's dream may have seemed, it was never going to work. In the end, as the story quest shows, human will and the desire for freedom wins out in the end. When there's a will, there's a way.

I know most of y'all haven't read or watched Romeo & Juliet, which is cool because like 98% of the content in & Juliet functions completely independent of the events in Romeo & Juliet, however it's also so weird because it leaves me trying to come up with something smart or funny to say about &J alone meanwhile my brain feels like this

been doing a second playthrough of devil summoner: soul hackers lately and it's really got me thinking about soul hackers 2 and how it compares to the original. idk its interesting because i would say it makes me realize just how much SH2 pales in comparison to SH1 and leave it at that, but i do think that there are some ways in which SH2 follows up on the original and it's not all that bad. a big part of it is in the themes and story stuff tho, like how SH2 takes some of the things SH1 says about the world as a whole and expands upon it a bit. i'll probably make a full post about it once i finish SH1 again but i just felt like throwing this out there

wanted to apologise for possibly being someone who fucked up ur tl with 18+ slime posts (coming to grips with how tagging works on this here webbedsite!) please take my sincerest (anonymous) apologies ur a cool goober 🙏

ay man it's alright!! really!!! i understand most of the 18+ people are coming from websites like twitter or tiktok so they don't quite understand how it functions :-) if you ever need a tutorial or any help with understanding the culture here, shoot me an ask! it's insanely different from other social media and i completely understand its weird to adjust to and navigate. peace and love + have fun with your slimeposting ✌️

I love when I see people complaining about the current state of SMG4 and claiming for the return of the "old writers" or "2023 writers"

Here's a list of the 2023 writers:

Kevin Lerd., the guy who is Glitch Prod's CEO, Fishy Boopkins' VA, Axol's VA, smg4!Kermit's VA, head writter of MR and SP, @/kevdez on Twitter dot com

(for nuance, Jasmine has credits in IGBP and WS as assistent writer, and Aaron/X has credits in some episodes as staff writer, and was the main writer for the Crew series)

I noticed that the series doenst work without Kevin in the writing team; Not because he is the best writer ever (trust me, he has some flaws that can be seen even in Meta Runner), but because the identity of the series is linked to his writing style and to his way to see the world and characters

Of course this would happen, he wrote almost all episodes since Seaside Stupidity (2016), not only he gave a lot of his input to the series, but he also had the idea for a lot of stable concepts and characters. Hell, from the main cast, most of the main characters where created by him in some capacity (Boopkins and Melony being the most obvious examples)

To me, that's why the series feel off, they took the long running main writer and put two guys who doesnt know what a blue Mario is, one guy who will do whatever a certain portion of fans wants and just one guy who seems to know what to do with those characters and how to explore this universe

I believe that all those guys will get what to do soon enough, and since the Meme Factory Arc, the episodes are not being that bad, is honestly an improvement...but still feel a bit off

Anyway, I hope this series get better soon, I feel like it will, with or without Kevin

And to end, my brother yesterday said something like "SMG4 has now a team almost twice as big and the show only got worse" and I laughed because he was right

shipping byler is wild bc I’m literally 100% certain they’re endgame absolutely zero doubts, and yet if they somehow don’t happen I won’t be shocked at all bc I’ll know exactly why. don’t you just love homophobia and heteronormativity isn’t it so great
