#how would god die in that universe

[eemolu]

thinking about how after the siphoning lab trial harrow says that the field was "vicious, much more so than Septimus communicated" and like. what was her goal there? if she was trying to get harrow out of the way and have gideon to herself was there a possibility that she would take gideon to john herself?? go to the mithraeum with gideon as her living breathing evidence for mercymorn augustine and g1deon???? bc if so i would love to read that fic that's all

universal healthcare is not broken and anyone trying to convince you it is is delusional and a dckrider for big health insurance. yes there are wait times but waiting for care is Not the same as being denied care.

in america your physician prescribes care and an insurer can still cuck you out of it because someone across the continent who has never met you can say: doesn’t seem medically necessary. Leaving you to handle a bill that is wildly inflated by the same insurers that just denied you.

let me drill it through your head you can pay thousands a year in premiums and still end up sick and financially burdened for years by One incident. no insurance company is Avoiding going broke by denying claims. theyre doing it to profit off your misfortune and your illness. Because healthcare fundamentally does not cost the amount that they claim it to be.

No I want to talk about it I think right at the end the moment that logan decided he was going to sacrifice his self for wade’s friends, that wade had something someone to live for, he was ready to die because wade and his family needed him that’s what would make him an x-man and that’s the moment that I think wade realized and decided he couldn’t let this Wolverine die this Wolverine was a part of his family now and wade was going to save all of his family and that decision is when I think the loophole was set for matter and anti-matter to ‘coexist’

to put a long story short: at the end of ffxiv's base game, literally Directly before the beginning of its first expansion (heavensward), there is a series of quests and story arcs that eventually snowball into an hour-long cutscene in which the entire thing comes to a head in the literal worst way possible. like, "the hero's plans all go horribly wrong and several major characters die onscreen, with others going missing (presumed dead), eventually culminating in the player character being framed for the murder of the leader of a nation-state and being Literally Forced To Flee The Country" wrong.

heavensward leads directly on from this plotline. you arrive at the major location of the expansion in the midst of seeking asylum whilst being a wanted criminal everywhere else in the world right now. it's like. A Whole Thing. the game makes such a big deal out of it all. the fandom does as well. and for good reason!! it's a really good moment!!!!!!

and then roughly 1/3rds of the way into heavensward you find out that literally none of it mattered. nobody important actually died, no changes were actually made to the status quo, and nothing comes of being literally kicked out of the country for (what is implied to be) several in-universe weeks, if not months. None Of It Mattered. None.

TLDR; the bloody banquet is a major, exciting, and very infamous twist that seems like it's going to segway into a MAJOR upheaval of the status quo and some really intriguing ramifications for the story as a whole... and then heavensward does away with literally all of that and practically writes the entire thing off as a waste of time.

you may be able to see why i'm so salty about it.

*eyeing yet another "Childe is a Christ figure" theory*

The human urge to sacrifice someone to solve their problems.

(I really hope that's what turns out to be the Fontainian 'sin' or maybe the original Enkanomiya sin even.

sacrificing a divine being so that they could keep their petty lives and not solve the problems they were responsible for. pretending that nothing happened

or maybe even that's what was wrong with Teyvat's creation)

anyway today my m*ther (very rudely, if only in that she brought it up) asked 'you need to think about where you want to be when you're thirty' and I had to lie through my fucking teeth that I was too busy to answer that at the moment. how do I answer that. I'm not living to thirty I barely think I can make it beyond this year if something doesn't change drastically immediately and everything I want you have actively sabotaged in some way. or it's straight up impossible. man. when I'm thirty the best outcomes I see are being dead or far, far away from here. but I cannot tell you that. especially since every day that marches on that I am trapped in this prison that I'll admit I help keep myself locked in here! but every day that marches me closer to that guarantees my death

Friendly reminder that being queer/LGBT ally/jewish/pro-semitism isn't, can't and shouldn't be used to justify and support ethnic cleansing, colonization and genocide. If you do think so then I don't want you to talk to me ever again 👉🚪

so because nick was able to almost raise lucifer from the empty, we really have to assume that anyone could do it. like all he had was some determination and a hammer, and he could have pulled it off. so. what im saying is that this leads us to assume that in-universe, dean just didnt feel like it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m better than the astronauts from the I.S.S. horror movie on amazon prime because I didn’t NEED to be blasted up a billion centimetres into orbit and see the planet turn to know that borders aren’t real and governments won’t save you and we просто нужно помнить о том, что нужно держаться вместе.

YouTube yesterday: Hey btw The Longest Johns just released a song about Horatio Nelson's death.

Me: Cool, excuse me as I stare off into space and think about L'Manburgian soldiers' reaction to hearing about Kiril's dying to withering whenever I play the song.

It's such a tiny innocuous thing that really doesn't matter, but I feel like calling duel monsters a children's card game (when it's fundamentally baked into everyday life, and your social existence is judged by what you play and how you play it so very intensely, for everyone in-universe) is an absolute injustice to what it is for that universe of people.
