Heyo! I was wondering if you could help me learn more about punk culture and the origin of it? I found you from your fic and the posts connected to it and it looks pretty interesting (⁠•⁠ ⁠▽⁠ ⁠•⁠;⁠) it ok if not ! :)

of course! I’m always happy to help someone learn more. what sort of info are you specifically looking for? I’m still somewhat new to the subculture so I’m not sure how helpful some of my info might be but I’ll try my best to at least point you in the right direction *\(^o^)/*

Chewing and gnawing on the irony One Piece continually shows with the main characters where they're doing objectively kind and helpful things and that's what gets them in trouble with the law. It's the selective application of criminal justice. The bias and room for corruption built into the system itself. It's delicious. It's horribly relevant. I'm obsessed.

anti endos thinking they're punk. lol. lmao even.

[meltedvinyls]

alright the gentle agreeable internet niceguy gloves are coming off

it is your duty to stay punk

rememebr to always operate with scrutiny, always seek affirmation in your community, when things feel wrong SAY SOMETHING, if things seem wrong Do something (even if it is just keeping record!)

being aware and being vigilant doesn't make you unfun or annoying it makes you a SERVICE TO YOUR COMMUNITY!! Not everyone has the capacity to keep their head on swivel and their mind on the goals.

it is the duty of those of us who are able to remain defiant and able to be radical in our relationship with information to not let our communities fall for propaganda, for complacency, and frankly for fascism.

The horrors persist...

We are a generation of people who are healing from the pain, suffering and trauma of a bullshit education system.

All of those years we were promised a future that was never to come true anyway. It's taken a toll on our faith in ✨effort✨

And now, we're using this institutional trauma™️ to birth a new paradigm. Enjoy the nonsense, old fucks. You're going down~!

Sincerely, exhausted Millennials and Gen Zs. Tired of your bullshit.

...but so do I.

Take it easy, folks. It can only get easier from here🍮

uk media hating on someone who hasn’t done anything bad and is loved by so many people. I’ve seen this film before.

Brits and Crocs deleting their anti-Louis tweets. Power to Louis and Louies.

If I had to think of what I think Sam likes music wise, Id say Gothic Rock, DeathRock, and Dark Wave

I lean more towards punk and metal myself so I'm not as much of an expert on goth genres as id like to be, though

i think my most abnormal fandom trait is i'm incapable of being attracted to characters who represent the oppressive establishment even if they're hot. like every day i find out about a new guy i didn't know we were putting in the simping pool because i just can't fathom thinking anyone who's besties with the government is sexy. even uniforms don't get me 90% of the time. i don't think "hey sailor 😏" i think "is there a problem officer?" and the Careless Whisper playing in the background ceases instantly. go change into your civvies and have a breakdown over the innocent blood on your hands shed in the name of preserving the System and don't shave for a week and i MIGHT consider.

CY_BORG may be one of the most gloriously anti-establishment games I’ve had the pleasure of reading through. I was certainly enjoying the world-building and the picture of this inescapable dystopia, but I think the moment I fell in love was the first page of the rules for the system. On this page it says, “You are encouraged to break every single rule in this book. Except this one.

Rule #00

Player characters cannot be loyal to or have sympathy for the corps, the cops, or the capitalist system. They might find themselves reluctantly forced to do missions for them or their minions. But make no mistake—they are the enemy.” Talk about a powerful thesis statement.

I do think if I ran a campaign in CY_BORG I’d likely want to make it a little more hopeful than the corebook. (in the sense that you could possibly have a chance of destroying the system and create something better, but I’ll wholly admit that to do this would require me to change or ignore certain aspects of the setting.) Of course, this is also to point out that TTRPG systems are intended to help facilitate telling a story that you and the people you’re playing with actually want to participate in, so if changes are needed, then they should be made.

Imagining this theoretical campaign I’d probably run at least three or four adventures in the system’s suggested way so the players can get REALLY disenfranchised with the world before I offer the seeds of sedition and revolution. 😁✨

“if you are not angry, you are not paying attention” is true now maybe more than ever. if you are not looking at the state of the world at the moment and thinking this is bullshit, are you really looking?
