for wip game pls tell us why kinnpete is misleading 😂

yes thank u i love talking abt this

so kinnpete au right just imagine

kinn is like so guys. this may sound crazy but i think vegas might be stealing every man i look at. i have no evidence to prove this btw. and tankhun is like no problem i have a genius idea u guys. what if. u fake date pete to see if vegas tries to steal pete and then pete can report back with evidence.

and then they do just that.

except! ofc pete trying to seduce vegas while pretending he's not at all seducing vegas and actually in a relationship with kinn doesn't end well for him bc well. vegas is famously kinda 😳 and pete is famously NOT immune

so essentially it's pete honeytrapping vegas by pretending to date kinn.

perhaps even the only fake dating au on earth that doesn't lead to real dating. im a pioneer if u really think abt it

that's why it's misleading bc the title kinnpete au implies something between them which there is not. they're besties they're worsties and most importantly pete deserves a raise.

[majorasnightmare]

like just for the record ive been using this lil freak as a coping method to get through TWO moves and im so invested. he is NOT well in the head and i thought too hard about ketheric and him pre head stabbing and isobel with autopsy scars and i am just losing it like jesus christ. you probably restored her corpse and then bhaal tells you to kill her again! and this is AFTERRRR being used as a goddamn medical manikin so kressa can croon to her hubby how cute your intestinal tract is. giving me mental illness for REAL

i love it when it gets to that time of the month where i’m just sitting here and get incredibly anxious and overwhelmed by absolutely nothing for no apparent reason

there is no way a fucking DUOLINGO timed challenge brought this on. it is a VIDEO GAME. for FUN. WHY??

(also the beginning of this sounds like a period joke, i promise it’s not. this just… happens monthly regardless of that which shall not be spoken of further)

[atastypeach]

honestly. fuck the holidays.

[dyketennant]

i’ve literally never wanted to stay home and do laundry soooo bad before but nooooo i have to go to this workshop/screening event for work because we need more attendance and my coworker said they’d feel better if i was there. life is so hard being your job’s emotional support goth

the thing is there's like, a point of oversaturation for everything, and it's why so many things get dropped after a few minutes. and we act like millennials or gen z kids "have short attention spans" but... that's not quite it. it's more like - we did like it. you just ruined it.

capitalism sees product A having moderate success, and then everything has to come out with their "own version" of product A (which is often exactly the same). and they dump extreme amounts of money and environmental waste into each horrible simulacrum they trot out each season.

now it's not just tiktokkers making videos; it's that instagram and even fucking tumblr both think you want live feeds and video-first programming. and it helps them, because videos are easier to sneak native ads into. the books coming out all have to have 78 buzzwords in them for SEO, or otherwise they don't get published. they are making a live-action remake of moana. i haven't googled it, but there's probably another marvel or starwars something coming out, no matter when you're reading this post.

and we are like "hi, this clone of project A completely misses the point of the original. it is soulless and colorless and miserable." and the company nods and says "yes totally. here is a different clone, but special." and we look at clone 2 and we say "nope, this one is still flat and bad, y'all" and they're like "no, totally, we hear you," and then they make another clone but this time it's, like, a joyless prequel. and by the time they've successfully rolled out "clone 89", the market is incredibly oversaturated, and the consumer is blamed because the company isn't turning a profit.

and like - take even something digital like the tumblr "live streaming" function i just mentioned. that has to take up server space and some amount of carbon footprint; just so this brokenass blue hellsite can roll out a feature that literally none of its userbase actually wants. the thing that's the kicker here: even something that doesn't have a physical production plant still impacts the environment.

and it all just feels like it's rolling out of control because like, you watch companies pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into a remake of a remake of something nobody wants anymore and you're like, not able to afford eggs anymore. and you tell the company that really what you want is a good story about survival and they say "okay so you mean a YA white protagonist has some kind of 'spicy' love triangle" and you're like - hey man i think you're misunderstanding the point of storytelling but they've already printed 76 versions of "city of blood and magic" and "queen of diamond rule" and spent literally millions of dollars on the movie "Candy Crush Killer: Coming to Eat You".

it's like being stuck in a room with a clown that keeps telling the same joke over and over but it's worse every time. and that would be fine but he keeps fucking charging you 6.99. and you keep being like "no, i know it made me laugh the first time, but that's because it was different and new" and the clown is just aggressively sitting there saying "well! plenty of people like my jokes! the reason you're bored of this is because maybe there's something wrong with you!"

Short confession before I’m going to bed.

Some of the aspects of Gap the series that appealed to me are, the stupid office romance, characters that are such a mess, and the age gap.

Why? Because I’m having a complicated-friendship-with-a-complex-dynamic with someone slightly older in the Leadership team at my office. And, seeing something similar to your life being played on screen, with a different ending, I don’t know, it’s kinda cathartic.
