Gaming...

Games I'm currently playing on a semi-regular basis:

Honkai: Star Rail

Destiny 2

Zenless Zone Zero

Games I need to return to that were regulars:

Scarlet Nexus

Baldur's Gate 3

Spiritfarer

Games I need to play again that I played briefly and quite enjoyed:

Sea of Stars

Jedi Fallen Order (I'm stuck on a jump puzzle though)

Transistor (I may be stuck in a room. hahahaha)

Yes, I know ZZZ has only been out for 24 hours. I find it delightful and can see myself playing it more frequently. It's less grindy and labor intensive than I found WuWa to be. (Neither of those gifs are mine)

the audacity you literally have to make a GENOCIDE SURVIVOR (whose entire culture was decimated by the fire nation) proudly work for the imperial fire nation army in some fuckass au? zutara shippers are never beating the colonial apologism allegations.

Woah, okay, I wasn't expecting this. I'm a firm believer that people should, first and foremost, treat each other on the basis of respect, so I'll do my best to explain this to you, clearly, and with the benefit of the doubt in mind, okay? I'm a nice person like that.

First of all, I'm working under the assumption that you haven't read these posts, and thus don't have all the information I've shared about the AU. I've been as clear about this subject as I can be, especially in my replies but, for the sake of fairness, I'll say it once again again:

I do not condone nor find it moraly correct to justify a victim of war joining the side of the ones responsible for her people's genocide.

I try to view this AU, and war in general, through a mature, realistic lense. Turning Katara into a victim with glorified Stockholm Syndrome isn't really my style. It's honestly insulting and deeply disturbing for me, as a creator, a woman of color born in a country that has a very, very long history of colonialism, and an empathetic human being, that anyone would believe me capable of thinking like that.

That being said, I know I really shouldn't, but would you like me to give you a step by step response?

(...) proudly work for the imperial fire nation army (...)

Okay, like I said before, I'm going to assume you saw only the artwork, didn't read either the tags or the two separate, in depth posts about the characterization and plot in this AU I made literally twenty four hours ago, and drew your own conclusions instead.

First of all: Katara doesn't proudly work for the Fire Nation army. That's her cover, as it is Zuko's. She joined Zuko and his crew, all traitors to the throne and good, honourable people, under the pretense of hunting the Avatar. Truly, they're destroying the Fire Nation military from within. And are, most definitely, not proud soldiers of the Fire Lord.

Katara hates the Fire Nation. But if joining a Fire Nation crew is what she needs to do to end the war, she will do it.

And, honestly, these are not excuses. But context is important, and it's not healthy to draw conclusions from the title instead of actually reading the book, if you know what I mean. It could get you in trouble some day.

And, please, I'm begging you—this has been talked about a lot, and I don't really like drama all that much, so I won't even rise to the accusations of condoning a non consented, colonialist and abuse apologist relationship.

That's just rude.

do you guys fuck with the scudlertron badges….. i put them on my tote bag i need everyone to know i am SO annoying

[benchwarming]

been working on an f1 season cross stitch (with thanks to @magicalrocketships for the inspiration)! each team gets a color, each driver gets a shade, each race gets a column, P1 at the top, DNFs and DNRs in quarter stitches at the bottom. here's the pre-monaco progress

i get that gore can be fun but the way some of y’all will post/reblog actual corpses on here for “aesthetic” as if that’s not someone’s loved one is fucking disgusting. the internet has rotted some of y’all’s brains so bad that you forget you’re circulating images of an actual fucking dead body, someone who had a life and people who cared about them. imagine if one of your loved ones died tragically and photos of their body were getting passed around the internet. look inward, your humanity is close to gone.

peyote stitch of micah bell's revolver.

also realized this pic doesn't show scale like at all, so oops it's 5 1/4 inch by 2 1/2 (approximately)

these things are a bitch to photograph so under the cut is the pattern I made.

#799. Guzzlord

It has gobbled mountains and swallowed whole buildings, according to reports. It's one of the Ultra Beasts.

Colour and symbol charts can be found here.

A note on colours: in my experience, floss looks different irl than in online pattern makers. If you think a different colour will work better, go with your gut!
