interesting thing about tubbo fighting sapnap in creator clash 3 that I’ve been thinking about

i think it’s really weird how they let sap ‘mcc anger issues’ nap even enter an event like this, let alone fight tubbo, the guy that clowned on his bestie for being a fucking idiot. and how the people officiating creator clash let him request to fight tubbo in particular. and how sap ‘anger management issues’ nap still openly admitted that he requested to fight tubbo so he could fight someone he actually wanted to hurt. and they’re still letting him fight tubbo

and on top of it all, isn’t creator clash a mostly friendly event meant for charity??? as in, the people fighting are fighting to win money for charity??? not to beat up some guy that they have beef with because he called out their groomer freak housemate???

idk, i hope tubbo wins cause he deserves it, but still the things leading up to their fight becoming a thing rub me the wrong way and are kind of weird on creator clash’s behalf for allowing

tubbo should still kill him tho just saying

I dunno if I've ever posted my Mikoto theory here so here goes:

I think Mikoto had the intent, but John did the murder. We know Milgram doesn't need you to have actually been the direct cause of someone's death; being the inciter is enough (Fuuta, Mahiru, Kazui). So if Mikoto went out with a baseball bat with intent to kill someone, even if John was the one who actually ended up killing innocent bystanders, according to Milgram's rules that never would've happened without Mikoto's intent.

Which explains the apparent contradiction in the way Mikoto is the one who's affected by the restraints but John isn't, despite everything else pointing to John being the one who did it (yes, I believe what he said in Neoplasm). Because the facts of the case don't line up; people (unclear how many) were killed, at night, by a baseball bat. This is information seen in both MeMe and Double, but there are also multiple discrepancies between them: the biggest one being where the murder happened - on the train (Double) vs next to it (MeMe). I think MeMe shows the murder Mikoto intended, after he got off the train, but Double shows the murder John committed, on the train on the way there after Mikoto was overwhelmed at the stress of what he was planning.

Throughout Double, Mikoto is shown with his eye-lights at the top of his eye, and John with them at the bottom. In addition, Mikoto is associated with white windows, and John with dark ones.

And at the end of the song, someone says sorry and it's easy to assume it's John based on the rest of the lyrics, but based on the image...

It's Mikoto.

thinking about Worm World, the worm themed theme park in southern maine.

Worm World's main attraction is The Legend which is a coaster with no speed governor which frequently goes up to 35% faster than design tolerances allow.

It also has another rollercoaster called Alexandria which is the euthanasia coaster but there's 53 beehives next to the track. (Also two mud dauber nests but they aren't supposed to be there and management can't be assed to hire an exterminator). Guests at the park can buy Warlord Honey which is harvested from the beehives at the park and is actually like really good.

Guests at the park can do meet n' greets with beloved Wormies, like Bitch, who always brings dogs (any guests that touch the dogs without permission are beaten and bodily thrown from the park).

Any park guests who are injured or feeling unwell can go to Bonesaw's clinic, which is just, like, a completely normal first aid station, but. why did they call it that? I mean, they have to know that's a bad choice, right? Why does the first aid station have to be themed? it could just be a normal first aid station and nobody would care.

It has a waterpark section that's all themed around Leviathan, with a wave pool, one of those big bucket things (which fills up and is emptied 10x faster than most other ones in the country), and many more attractions. Sometimes has prop dead bodies at the attractions too.

There's a huge walled section on the other side that says SIMURGH LAND, COMING SOON but it's said that since 2002 and nobody's been allowed in and the security team at Worm World is like, weirdly adamant about not letting anyone in, to the point where they even guard the thing during the off-season, and it's really strange. People have tried to use drones to take pictures but the security team always shuts them down and I heard my cousin's friend's wife's sister had a drone and the security team shot it down with a shotgun in the middle of the operating day.

getting involved in what's happening in your town is cool, 10/10 would recommend.

[great-tusk]

Ugh. I had a really bad day.

[moszeel]

I never post my OCs or their lore on here so literally no one is excited to see her except me. Which is probably a good thing because she is the worst boss ever. Her names Allison (last name pending) and she runs a morally questionable branch office for a big pharma company

[phlyaros]

oh so actually he knew what he did was wrong because he complained about the same thing happening to him recently AND identified the correct course of action about the situation! so you chose to do this to me knowing it was wrong to do to someone. awesome. any trace of any past respect for you is gone and if my friends ask me i will simply tell them the truth

[crossbackpoke-check]

about to be sooo nosy so. my apologies. but. morgan frost? girlfriend? do share (or don’t! again this is so nosy i’m sorry)

for legal purposes i can neither confirm nor deny anything about morgan and his girlfriend but afaik i think he’s single right now? at one point (within the past four years 😭) he did for sure have a girlfriend and that is the extent of my wag knowledge

[tutuandscoot]

Reading your tags, and the relationship I’m desperate to have is not VM’s, but the relationship V and M have with their spouses. After all, if this is what platonic love looks like for them, romantic love must be mind blowing? I remember Alma once saying that VM would be ideal spouses for other people because they learned how to deal with the opposite sex in their own relationship. Their spouses must be the luckiest people in the world!

This is the kind of appreciation and understanding of their beautiful and unique situations we should all have more of !!

Feels very weird to see states like SC appear listed as States With The Smallest LGBT Population or whatever

the homophobia in the webtoon app is genuinely so fucking disgusting and exhausting why do i bother posting comments every week on the orv chapters

morthal and markarth for the skyrim asks!

Ty for the ask! 💞

Morthal - Do you enjoy exploring dungeons and ruins? Why or why not?

Kinda depends tbh. Dungeons with multiple rooms absolutely FULL of enemies encourage a more stealthy approach, and while I'm a capable stealth archer, it's not my preferred play style, so it can be a bit unfun. The alternative, however, is the ENTIRE DUNGEON hearing me engage in melee and swarming me at once, which. Also isn't fun. Ultimately I guess the answer comes down to "depends on the number of guys in there" and "how likely is Marked For Death to solve the entire issue?" Skyrim is basically the only game where, when given a choice, I'll choose martial over caster or archer, but this can be a problem in packed dungeons. I like single or few guy brutal slugfests where we just beat the shit out of each other. Also then I can just take a break to throw up my shield and watch Celann materialize to OHKO them, which fills me with glee literally every time

Markarth - If you could rewrite one questline in Skyrim, which would it be? (This answer is sooooo long btw)

Hmm... I'm actually not too interested in a lot of them, but when it comes to being disappointed in one, it's the Civil War questline. The entire thing amounts to "use your main character powers about 5 times in a dungeon or something and then go fight the oppositional leader." You can't even fix Whiterun, a place you specifically took for its geographical, strategic, and mercantile advantage. You just leave it in ruins???

There are two quests in the entire line that aren't just "awkwardly storm this place with a couple guys,' and one of them is optional. Both sides have a "steal/plant enemy orders" quest, but the "gaining intel/blackmail" quest is in both cases entirely optional. There's one non-combative "sneak and find this document/gather intel" quest, and no "root out a traitor" or "disrupt a supply line" type quests (technically this one is awkwardly tacked onto the end of the optional quest.) The Dark Brotherhood, Dawnguard, and Thieves Guilds have similar respective quests that we can compare to the 1.5 non-combative Civil War quests: finding intel on Maro's son, the radiant "vampire advisor" quests, basically the entire beginning TG questline (Honningbrew, Goldenglow hives.)

Each of these questlines involve non-typical quests, aka quests where you have to approach it a little differently than the rest of your work: the Brotherhood stealing documents and planting false evidence like thieves, the Dawnguard committing assassinations and pickpocketing orders like both the Brotherhood AND the Guild, the Guild quest where you engage not only in open combat with Mercer, but kill him, like both the Dawnguard and, well, the Brotherhood Brynjolf insists you're not.

While those questlines are largely the same sort of quests on repeat, it's because they're, well, specialized guilds. Built entirely around doing those things. That's their entire function. When it comes to a war (which is very NOT a guild,) you'd expect a bit more than just a few skirmishes, especially considering the only thing that changes when you join is, well. There's one more guy in the skirmish. But magically this turns the tide and the entire war is won through brute force when previously there seemed no end in sight. The questline lacks variety, is incredibly, oddly short for what's supposed to be a war, and generally just... lacks impact. Nothing really happens afterwards. Faction camps are still sitting around, and you still can't even clear them. Hold guards are replaced by the faction that won and Whiterun is permanently in shambles. Can't even fix Whiterun ffs there's not even quests for that.

* After leaving this in the drafts for a few weeks and thinking about it some more, I think ultimately the problem IS the brevity. "Do four battles and suddenly we win" is absolutely insane. The Dawnguard DLC and the Thieves Guild, even the one single time I played it, have spoiled me rotten with the never ending radiant quests. It prevents the Companions feeling of "I joined three days ago and now I'm in charge and everyone does what I say" that throws everyone off. Not only can you keep accepting them, the mainline quests don't get in the way of accepting them (... like the Companions only telling you to go talk to Aela.) This means you can keep accepting radiant quests that provide a feeling of integration and contribution (in)to the guild, and also avoids the Companions and Civil War feeling of "I did three quests and it's over and everyone is bowing to me" by allowing you to do guild things in-between the main quests.

Not only that, but they offer a variety the main line might not provide, especially with the Dawnguard. For example, siding with the Volkihar includes a quest where you're given Dawnguard armor and told to go cause a scene, striking down some innocent civilian in the name of "vampire hunting" to sow public distrust. This quest is cool as fuck conceptually btw, why is a Volkihar radiant cooler than the entire CW line???

Ultimately I think if I could change one thing about the Civil War line specifically it would be adding TG/DG style radiant quests that can be done between main missions and also include "milestone" type quests that really bring home the feeling of growth and contribution. I think it would make it feel considerably less jarring and I'd even maybe consider playing it again if we could fix Whiterun.
