Auto part shop guys will always have the most destroyed to shit cars on Earth.
#the reason for this apparently is that they know they can get parts and fix it so they buy a super cheap car#Everytime i get a customer that comes through with a car missing handles#having paint missing or chipped to hell and back#the car is probably made of two halves of junked car#the interior looks like it was in a fire#and the engine runs like shit#i know if i look at their clothes it's gonna be some auto part shop logo

modern games' "it's so realistic it looks like you could touch it!" will never be even close to the source engine's "you can count the polygons on it but you can actually touch it and if you throw it it breaks into little pieces and sometimes leaves a mark on the environment". you could have the most photorealistic graphics in the world but if the environment isn't interactable then it's no more than a fancy veneer
#i know i've made this post like 3 times but i'm making it again because i just love the way the source engine lets you throw shit around#and noita is just incredible. that's something that would be incredibly difficult in 3d games though#so i understand why they wouldn't want to go to noita levels of it#but hl2 is old enough to vote in the us and runs like a charm so it's definitely possible

i'm a very don't tolerate bullshit kind of person and I respect and expect it so much when other people are real and straight up with me anyways whatever I say stems from my own thoughts and I cannot lie to you and tell you to do something I think is stupid if you ask for advice. anyways an acquaintance of mine who majored in English unless you want to work in primary school for a pay of barely 700 dollars complained how her parents want her to get a masters degree and she's thinking about getting one in marketing or something similar and then later on spreading into tech saying how she can work as a data analyst and I literally almost laughed out loud like it's absolutely insane how little university life prepares us for the future and how absolutely useless it is that you have university graduates here thinking they can work a job that requires a degree in either IT or economy as someone who read and talked about books for grades like please be so serious right now. I'm not upset with her for thinking this is possible just the general society for letting these young people down by telling them every career option is valid and it doesn't really matter what you study in university because it does
#in a general scheme of things it doesn't matter what you study in university when u study useless shit and never get a chance to work#a job related to that#but people who majored in medicine#mathematics engineering biology physics etc like you dont hear them talk about how studies don't actually matter bc they're working jobs#they studied for#adding law onto it as well#like we really need less people in humanities I'm not saying we need no people in humanities#humanities are really important but we need LESS people in them#and we also need less people in universities in general#go learn a skill you can actually use to make money off of in the real word we need electricians and people fixing shit around the house#we need people making ceramic or wooden floors we need carpenters#we dont need more people majoring in English abeg#the society and the school system is failing the younger generations so much by affirming their ideas of what the world looks like#because a highschooler cannot know whats best for them in the long run and we need to aid them#and i wish someone told me this before I went to university I would've saved myself so much trouble and time#and im not complaining bc i genuinely have it so much better than at least like 50% of my ex classmates#i have an appartment#a job that pays me okay#a side hustle#a car even though its old#savings#a future plan#idea of what im going to do and where I'm going to end up#but if i had someone advise me from the beginning I would've saved so much time and effort

Uploading a classic for your enjoyment
#Mass Effect#video#Commander Shepard#I adore how a TON of weird little quirks of the games as a result of bugs#or limited animation resources#or wonky controls#Just.... got made into CANON details in the following games#Shepard can't dance for shit#The Mako controls like a fridge that runs on diesel#Shepard can't drive for shit#Ashley's weird racist remarks get used as in-game jokes in the sequel#Every weird game engine quirk that got rewritten as canon lore added 50hp to my life#Fun fact the official Bioware Twitter calls it 'The Shepard Shuffle'

pondering. how hilde felt picking up drk. one of emet's canon classes. did it feel familiar... did he feel some measure of embarrassment when he didn't perform well enough. when fray would get upset with him did he instinctively shut him down because he would expect someone else to nag. someone who he could not even begin to put a name or face on, it just feels like something... innate. this reflex to bite back defensively when he messes up while watched by someone more skilled than him in something. he's not prideful by nature but something within him just pushes him to have some sort of ego when it comes to this in particular
& how he felt when entering ktisis hyperboreia & here emet, "great sorcerer of eld", expected black mage, goes & conjures his weapon of choice for the occasion - a greatsword he's putting to use to protect his party members with the power of the darkness within, though he wouldn't readily admit to it
#ffposting#hildemet#yeah im thinking yea. u could say that i am contemplating.#the lore might be changing a bit again. nothing too major just which points where emet makes his presence known#like in his mind. possible that by the time hilde goes back in time he hasnt been able to sense emets presence#or communicate with him for a bit so hes experiencing all of it on his own as the game intends#yeah im engineering this for it to be as painful as possible for him. to see what it is it felt he'd forgotten#only to see it be emet's turn to forget someone - something so important to him#& he can do nothing about it. can't run to him & explain everything again. & he sure can't talk to present day emet abt it#bc present day emet is presumably back in the aetherial sea (he is but also not. mostly dormant & building energy back up)#elpis truly made hilde feel so hopeless & like. he Really felt the effects of Dissociative Disorder. & past life shit.#made him feel so fragmented. which he is. & everything he wanted within his grasp felt like itd long slipped from him#& hes supposed to just go back & save the world now. i can tell you one thing & its that ardbert did a lot of latter half edw#hes had emets soul (or part of it. to avoid unpleasant side effects) within him since post seat of sacrifice... & now its like hes gone#but he also never fully truly believed it was actually emet there. he figured hed just. made him up. worst factive split#it was weird. emet was clearly himself but hilde has trouble trusting his judgement ... & is used to his brain doing weird shit#ahhh anyway. yeah. drk is soo fun for him haha (takes long drag from fake cig)

oooooh so! for fic recs! I would ask for Dead Three fic recs for BG3 but I think we have read all the same things so Tyranny!!!
Anything with lush prose and Bleden Mark.
And anything with my fav problematic beastwife Kills-In-Shadow :D
i was under the impression i will be easily able to recommend tyranny fics - and then i remembered most of what i read was in russian OTL
from english ones, I really liked the Bleden Mark & Fatebinder It's A Hundred Thousand Miles Off, Coming Closer Every Day by ialpiriel and Ad Coleum by Nebulad, both short and sweet and dialogue-heavy, which I enjoy
there's absolutely nothing in english that's Killsy-centric which i consider a crime and a personal attack (she's the ideal woman. you may not like it, but that's what female peak performance looks like)
i would shamelessly rec my fics - if i ever finished and posted them
#thank you for this ask. i got hit with a wave of nostalgia that nearly killed me#i promised myself if i successfully defend my engineering thesis i will replay tyranny and write some fics and art some art for it#as a reward#i've been thinking abt it recently (tho i'm often thinking abt it bc its one of my fav games ever)#abt how much some of the themes in bg3 reminded me of some themes in tyranny#specifically on a durge run. if you know you know#i will say shit like 'manva with her whole conduit of energy theme would make a banger kyros-aligned fatebinder' and not elaborare#also lae'zel is killsy-coded#which might explain why i love her so#as an aside#if ur in a mood for a whole-ass novel u should read 'his own medicine'. a nerat-centric post-game AU written by a friend#always here to eagerly shill for my friends :3

ohhhh u know what i wanna write. need to, even. very important to do it at some point. but i think i really do need to make the doctor have a meltdown. i think that would be very cathartic to put them through.
#whump but autism flavored. for me.#i mean i imagine that he has been having them just off-screen when the worse adventures are over#can keep it together as long as heβs running because he can focus on something else and. then when he is not it all hits at once.#the doctor curled on the tardis floor because he can hear her engine vibrating through it and its the only sensation that isnt causing him#physical pain to experience at the moment#i need him to go thru some shit okay. never enough fics in the autistic doctor tag on ao3#skmeone remind me to outline this in the morning. gotta pick which doctor to do it to. which companion to be with him.#i am feeljng ten & donna but that could change#oh on that note: thinks about 14 having meltdowns about. βnormal thingsβ.#local man who has saved the world a thousand times suddenly finds out that grocery store lighting is intensely stressful and makes him want#to cry. despite all contradicting evidence that this is happening to him is a good thing.#means heβs recalibrating slowly to allow his body to be upset by things like that rather than pushing all of it down to be set off by#the world nearly exploding or someone he loves getting hurt. instead he can get overwhelmed by small things and feel safe that if he reacts#to that. nothing bad will happen to him while heβs having a meltdown. ohhhhh donna bringing him a weighted blanket because he went to hide#in his tardis after comjng home and not saying a word to anyoneβ¦..#okay im done i swear im done.

Idk, there's this one moment that happens immediately after Serapis gets Stella to kill him because he's desperate to escape being king for even just a few days. Where I'm extremely torn on what happens next.
Obviously Serapis is revived in the heart of the maze like he has been many times before, he's home and alive and has to swim to the surface of the blood red waters to breathe and climb back out onto dry land. And the heart of the maze is surrounded by the temple Aetius's family tends too.
I can't decide if it's better for Aetius to be on pool duty that day, for it to here the gurgling of the heart as someone is brought back and to prepare for them to emerge like it does anyone else. Only for it to be Serapis. It's hero and dear friend it thought it would never see again after they said their goodbyes. Aetius would tackle him back into the waters, too excited and ecstatic to wait for him to fully get out. They're both drenched and stained orange and red. And despite Aetius having been back for weeks already, it is only now that it feels it is home.
Or for Aetius to be off in the maze, guiding some other lost soul back to their own clan or colony. Taking communications or gifts or what not between some of the communities. Just doing its job as it has done its entire adult life. Serapis comes from the waters, he meets Aetius's family and they let him stay within their den while he waits for Aetius to return. Its been years since Serapis last saw the inside of the maze. He has no hope his own den is still unoccupied, but he won't leave the temple to return to his guard duties until Aetius comes to guide him home. And in this version, Aetius returns dusty and tired to the den it was born in and where its family has lived since they took up their duty tending to the heart of the maze. And Serapis is there beside one of the fires, talking to its siblings and looking so at home in its colony that it thinks it's dreaming this.
#cute bouncy kitten characterization scene vs Aetius as an entire person with a Life Serapis is just one piece of#Like i lean in hard on the comedy of Aetius and its relationship to Serapis bc those are the Fuzzy Warm aspects of a character#who makes nasa engineers look like infants and has a strong lust for violence and deep loyalty to its family and their home#Aetius's entrance into the story is it being beaten and bled near half to death. The only reason it was sold was because the poachers#didn't think it would survive the night and so wouldn't grow back its golden pelt again and so no longer had value to them#It has been through Shit. and its the one who brings the poachers down and saves the others who were taken.#its the Brains. Its also a kitty kitty kitty cat.#im running high rn so idk if this is making any sense

You know as a horror fan "cultural Christianity" is such a useful term because as an atheist as well as a horror fan and a fan of haunted house stuff if it's done well I very, very quickly noticed how many horror movies are Christian propaganda. So few horror movies involving religion (which is a shocking amount of them btw) pick any religion that's not Christianity to center itself around and when they do that religion is bad and evil, not the cause of evil and the savior from it (because the demons may be Christian, but God and the bible are also the solutions in a way other religions aren't granted. Bonus points if it's an indigenous religion being portrayed as Evil and Bad).
Pretty much any exceptions I can think of to that rule use Judaism and the Holocaust as a backdrop and never in like a normal, the Holocaust is horrible way it's always playing on myths of Nazi Germany's experimentation on the Jewish population. Which I find highly troubling and disturbing, but regardless nothing like being a horror fan to convince you of cultural Christianity because no other genre leans on religion as a plot device so much unless it's straight up a Christian movie for a Christian audience using Christianity as it's main theme and through line.
#winters ramblings#side note i ALWAYS hear about how we learned SO MUCH about medicine and the body from nazi Germany and i KNOW that has to be#at least SOMEWHAT untrue because the methodologies nazis would have used in CONCENTRATION CAMPS do not seem#like theyd yeild USEFUL information about anything. people criticize studies now for being overly populated with undergrads#because THAT skews your results theres NO WAY the camps had conditions good enough to yeild useful information#and theres NO FUCKING WAY IN ALL HELL that nazis had good enough methodologies and treatments of their PRISONERS#to be getting any result worth using. maybe we learned a lot on how to TORTURE people but medical sciences??#i think body snatchers orobably taught us a lot LOT more than the fucked up things the nazis did to the jewish population#and i find it DEEPLY DEEPLY troubling that we seem to remember the nazis like the NAZIS want us to remember them#and not as the scum of the earth they were- they werent useful DOCTORS even if there were olenty of useful engineers but they werent good#engineers BECAUSE they were nazis they were just good at their jobs WHY do we attribute their intelligence to BEING A NAZI#if anything thats proof all their smart at is building shit but anyway something tells me nazi germany didnt teach us NEAR#as much about medical anything as the myths lead us all to believe and WHY are we myth making about FUCKING NAZIS#time to start myth making the jewish people who survived or did uprisings or literally ANYTHING but the fucking nazis#now on the flipside as a horror fan Christianity is SO BAKED IN to how certian genres of horror run#if you had a haunted house movie WITHOUT Christianity id be genuinely surprised. if it wasnt at least Judaism with Weird Holocaust shit#id be even MORE surprised. ive never seen a weesterm horror flick that centered around like. Sikh people or even Muslims#and youd think being an abrahamic religion Muslims would make the cut but no even THEY get shunted because brown#like you CANNOT convince me culture Christianity doesnt exist because as an athiest horror fan BOY do i know thats not true#its actually one of my LEAST favorite things about the horror genre and WHY i have a hard time with haunted house movies#sure i LOVE james wans work but its STILL uses Christianity as a plot device and i HATE Christianity in my horror cheerios#plus you got shows like supernatural who LITERALLY wrote a show of bible fanfiction and uts very clear they never read the bible#i know this because i have a good friend who is religious and even CHRISTIANS find the Christianity in that show baffling and overbearing#and hilariously inaccurate but still lmao. anyway cultural Christianity is 100% a thing as an athiest its IMPOSSIBLE not to notice#so i find it REALLY WEIRD that athiests deny its existence as if weve not been victims of it out whole lives#and religious people who arent Christian too!! we should team up to beat the christians back to where they should be!!#just as invisible as the rest of us OR the rest of us just as visible as christians!!

Guess what bitch cooked their CPU again!
(It was me, I'm the bitch)
#kerytalk#ok to be fair I was running two copies of blender and one was open on this file with a shader map that looked like factorio#because I was trying to figure out how BG3 textures work to rebuild them#I should have probably double checked the render engine was set to the right setting on the file I downloaded that I was examining#because blender is a FUCKING BITCH WHO KEEPS PUTTING IT ON CPU RENDER#ugh I need those fans#AMD chip runs like the sun#Karlach core in my PC#hahahah#at least this only happens when I'm doing stupid shit in blender#I mean I could look at the thermal paste but that requires unscrewing my cooler and I really don't wanna#and all idle temp readouts are in normal ranges so idk man#probably just my case fans are shite

Bethesda please I'm begging you do a fallout new vegas remake, or even just a modern re-release holy shit
#the game runs like shit on modern hardware it's insane#i understand that the biggest issue is the engine being dx9 so that's like. a whole thing#but there's such a huge market for it. especially now#you need to spend like an hour troubleshooting and modding just to get it to run somewhat stable and even then. it will crash very often#needed to roll back drivers for my rx 6800xt because the game is so broken on the new ones

anyway. nishiki and majima are both borderline and i could do a whole case study on either of them about it. send tweet
#im pretty flexible about most hcs regarding mental disorders and such but this take is one im like pretty fucking steadfast on#and I could write. an absurd amount about it. cause psychoanalyzing the shit out of characters is literally like. what I do for a living#and I have a weird special interest in abnormal psych and the dsm-5 in my closet and a psychologist for a mother and etc#but yeah so#inquire further at your own risk because I will talk. I will talk a lot#the only issue with majima is that I canβt evaluate his childhood and family life and just. his fundamental years of development in general#which is a pretty big deal when it comes to assessing for any personality disorder#nishiki oh yeah I absolutely can. but yeah we know basically nothing about majimas fundamental years. all I can really do is reverse#engineer so to speak based on how he is as an adult and what causes a person to do the things he does / be the way he is / etc#but of course thatβd all be very very loose and hypothetical. FASCINATING to think about to me but obviously would have to be taken with a#huge grain of salt and be considered very very speculative#but I can say for sure that he didnβt have a stable and perfect home life/family life growing up I think thatβs pretty safe to assume#anything more detailed than that is way more speculative but. yeah. I donβt think he was just. Normal. up until he was 20#his identity issues run way too deep for me to accept that concept#anyway I need to shut up#majima#nishiki#rambling

Night on the Bionisβ Shoulder.
#xcde#xenoblade#had to fucking FIGHT the xc2 lighting engine for these ones#ive definitely talked about this before. the xc2 lighting engine makes everything look like shit at night#what looks okay at night? glowy things#so i sought out glowy things#all things considered i think these turned out pretty good#but at any rate#what happened with gael gar. like what purpose did he serve#the final quest with him was just annoying to be honest like he basically asks melia to come kill him#like i didnt think he even had a reasonable point of view#which could be interesting to investigate from a position of 'he's a fanatic and isn't logical' but it isn't played like that#he just kind of exists#blows up a lab#says some weird unjustifiable shit and then leaves#melia's comebacks were not exactly that good either#anyways im sure theres more analysis to be done about that character but i just dont want to#he does not interest me and neither do his perspectives#which i think is kind of sad because there could have been some really interesting stuff about how the post-zanza world should be run#considering everything that has changed#like who put shulk and co in charge? they are mostly essentially children who grew strong enough to kill god#i feel like they could have done something really interesting with some people reasonably pushing back against the new people in charge#but instead we get 'i dont like the ancestors!' vs 'i like the ancestors!'
