I love you people who are unapologetically fans of niche, obscure or old things
To every artist, writer, or blogger out here making art, stories and posts about the books I loved in middle school, the shows I loved as a child, the random bands I like, obscure video games, old camp bad movies, and anything else niche, weird and obscure I love you. Wether you’re writing fanfiction, making art, headcannons, AUs, or just shitposting I’m kissing you lovingly on the forehead and listening to you intensely

i wondered if villainy was like armstrong feint, someone once kind and gentle who lowered himself into treachery, or more like a mysterious beast, hidden in the depths and summoned to wickedness. but all these questions seemed wrong.
@asouefanworkevent day three of woevember : the clusterous forest, alternatively titled, a lesson in turpitude.

encyclopedia brown was so good man. you get to solve the mystery yourself using obscure trivia. you get to watch this little twelve year old solve actual crimes for his cop father as well as stolen-lunch-money level petty shit for his classmates. hes got a girl best friend whose whole job is to beat the shit out of bullies for him. epic sauce

My favorite genre of book is the “list book,” where the contents are essentially one long, cut-and-dry list of information, organized in alphabetical order with no embellishments whatsoever, other than diagrammatic pictures which show the meaning of something. This includes dictionaries in English, foreign language-to-English dictionaries, encyclopedias on various subjects, toxic chemical transportation handbooks for truckers, etc.
#I — like my great grandmother — read the dictionary for fun so much I became a walking encyclopedia#It stands to reason that whatever is wrong with me runs in the family ABSBDJDNDJDKD#I have no interest in stargazing through a telescope; but do I have an extremely detailed book about how to photograph our Sun? Yes.#Because I like to know things about a broad range of subjects so I am prepared for when I am in a situation that requires knowledge#No information is useless information. Even if it doesn’t seem like it applies it may spark creativity in another area#For instance: knowing how to draw enabled me to do art tutorials for a bunch of emotionally-impaired children#to have them all sitting at the same table peacefully learning a trade instead of smashing each others’ skulls in like they usually did#And you’d be surprised how well infodumping a bunch of random facts about Latin and Hebrew linguistics can deescalate violence

an idea i really like: rather than being another soul trapped inside the body of golden freddy, evan doubles as the entity shadow freddy. a nonviolent, reclusive spirit, wearing the twisted face of the animatronic that took his life; with no physical body simply because evan didn't die in the diner. he makes the active choice to help his father (to lure the animatronics to the safe room in the "follow me" minigames, so william can dismantle them) for the same reasons elizabeth does; that's their dad. they care about him. they want to make him proud. the only spirits haunting the fazbear name that don't hold any animosity towards william. and i'm sure, on some level, evan cares about the other children. but at the end of the day, michael is the only afton working against william.
#//additional things that make me go 👀:#//-in fn.af world sh.adow fr.eddys model has a *very distinct* broken lower jaw and i think thats such an interesting detail#//-in u.cn one of /nightmare's/ lines is “the shadow fears me”. sh.adow fr.eddy is the ONLY character with the word “shadow” in his name --#//-- as “sh.adow bo.nnie” and “sh.adow de.edee”s names are actually /keysmashes/#//-in the character encyclopedia (which ik isnt super accurate but hear me out) is /very/ vague about sh.adow fr.eddy--#//-- and implies that he may be much more important than we realize#//-sh.adow fr.eddy hasnt been seen since fn.af 3; in which- in the good ending- evan passed on with the other four “main” children#//anyway umm integrating this into my belief system#//everyone is free to give him shit for it but his loyalty lies with his father. sorry.#❥ 𝐄𝐕𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐎𝐍 ⸻ headcanon ▻ 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒑𝒂𝒓𝒕𝒚 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒚𝒐𝒖#cw // child death mention#//i promise im finishing up all the halloween starters btw. evan muse is just Always Present

hundreds of people have said this already but I don't agree with the premise that "being raised using modern technology makes people better at technology" in fact it's probably the opposite. modern tablets and chromebooks and whatever have gotten so shiny and hyperoptimized that they implicitly discourage people from learning troubleshooting skills.
#this post brought to you by#a stupid instagram comment of the 'not letting your 3-year-old have a tablet is stunting his ability to use tech😡' variety#get real! playing app store games on a sticky tablet confers no useful computer knowledge!#things that may actually be helpful in fostering an ability to use computers well (based on my own experiences):#giving children chances to solve their own problems#encouraging logic and math puzzles (appropriately complex jigsaw puzzles; sudoku & minesweeper; Encyclopedia Brown & similar books)#encouraging hobbies that involve making physical objects (woodworking; leatherworking; sewing; crocheting; knitting)#non-trivial research skills including assessing source quality! (this can tie into the hobbies thing if you play your cards right)#[however for credentials all I've got is 'undergrad compsci TA at a pretty decent university' so take this with a grain of salt lol]#[can't say which though. say no to self-doxxing]

Literally my autistic 3 years old with his encyclopedias. He will just carry one around open to a section bring it to me and say, “Momma plans!” (or whatever he’s opened to). And we read about *whatever it is
