The idea of Riley introducing Arcade to Yes Man has been eating my head for ages- It's gotta be the most awkward first meeting imaginable.

Basic rundown: Shortly after first visiting the Legion Fort, pissing off Caesar and retrieving the platinum chip, Riley decides to open up to Arcade about what he found in Benny's suite after he initially ran off: a new friend with a potential plan to throw all major parties out of New Vegas. So he promises to eventually introduce the two, and imagine Arcade's surprise (or lack thereof) when this 'friend' turns out to be a giant reprogrammed securitron robot.

First impressions are... interesting. I feel like Arcade would definitely be a little unnerved at first, but surprised at the potential for an independent Vegas.

Where men are the most sure and arrogant, they are commonly the most mistaken, and have there given reins to passion, without that proper deliberation and suspense, which can alone secure them from the grossest absurdities.

I saw people talking about that scene where Yassen shot Max as a huge betrayal of Alex and it's kinda funny to me like yeah he involved Alex in a murder but also I cannot emphasise enough that Alex decided to join a criminal organisation. People have been telling him he'll need to kill for days now, Alex has watched them kill multiple people already, I get that it sucks for him but you cannot team up with a known killer and be that shocked when actually his secret extra mission was to kill

I have soooo much affection for fics where Tony's love language is being a creepy stalker<3

He uses the Baby Monitor like a home TV, constantly watching it. There's a sensor in the Spider-Man suit that lets him known Peter's vitals every time he puts it on.

Eventually he gets Peter a new phone and a watch or maybe a bracelet - something he'll keep on all the time, so that Tony can always use the tracker to check where he is.

Honestly, he probably goes through Peter's phone too. Social media, chats, gallery. He has Friday save all messages Peter types, even the ones he dosen't actually send. He dosen't care about privacy he want's to know everything about his boy.

(Peter knows and is thrilled that his crush likes him back.)

If you DO love games about Gods and mortals and the gulf between faith, life, and hope, can I introduce you to...

the first game is maybe less accessible than the second but my GOD do they ever dive into cultural difference, ethics, the difference between followers of different doctrines, what it means to have a soul, what it means to be an individual, what sacrifices are really needed at points of crisis.

Ethos and Morality in Our Choices: A Perspective on Living Virtuously in Society

As members of a global society, navigating the complexities of living virtuously and morally is a challenge many in my Sangha often ask about. Photo by Brett Sayles on Pexels.com The question posed is simple yet profound: how can we, as Buddhists and as human beings, live by our values in a world shaped by forces such as capitalism, imperialism, plutocracy, and exploitation? This is not merely…

The passion for philosophy, like that for religion, seems liable to this inconvenience, that though it aims at correction of our manners and extirpation of our vices, it may only serve, by imprudent management, to foster a predominant inclination and push the mind with more determined resolution towards that side which already draws too much, by the bias and propensity of the natural temper.
