#tf2 #team fortress 2 #tf2 engineer #tf2 demoman #tf2 sniper #they are the bros of all time 2 me #they watch everything together and i feel like they'd appreciate each other's tastes in a lot #sit by the campfire crack beers n shoot the cans while talkin about the latest gunsmoke ep that just aired on the outdoor tv engie set up #demo is swinging his sword around drunkenly while they are doing this and has almost cut their heads off god knows how many times #maybe actually cut their heads off a couple times #all in good fun!!

A devastating and confusing thing about the Fallout setting, when you explore the pre-war aspects, is what the creators think about pre-war America. In the first games we only get hints of the pre-war world, but they seem to be some sort of wild fascist nation invading Canada. In Fallout 1, the first thing we're introduced to of the pre-war society is seeing a soldier shoot civilians and laughing.

Now, for the first 2 games and New Vegas we don't really know much. What we know is that there's a fascist military group known as the enclave who were a sort of US deep state even before the war, and that the government teamed up with corporate interests to preform vaguely MKULTRA-ish experiments with the Vaults. Basically, the government was an extreme version of the 50s American jingoism and McCarthyism.

This is well and dandy, I guess issues come up more when we get to the later games, especially 4, where it seems like none of this extreme plotting and societal civil unrest which would exist is seen. The society as presented in 4 also seems quite progressive, gay people are featured in the opening, and none of the baggage of say, civil rights not existing are included. Now on a baseline, I don't want settings to be more conservative, homophobic and sexist etc., but it becomes a very confusing setting when it's displayed both as this jingoist extreme thing with fascist tendencies aswell as a progressive place where everyone is seemingly equal. If you're focusing on the 50s as your setting, and American nationalism in the 50s, then you can't have McCarthyism spoofs and anti-communism as a societal paranoia norm while also general equality is the norm without misunderstanding why McCarthyism and nationalist jingoism is bad. A massive harm done in anti-communist paranoia is how it degrades and vilifies any progressive movements (women's rights, civil rights, homosexuality) as being morally un-American and therefore connected to communism. To ignore this just makes any critique of MacCarthyism and jingoism weird!

Basically, pre-war America in Fallout 4 becomes this both sides thing where America is both pure and equal and white fences in every instance that we see as the player (the intro), while also supposedly being this dystopic MacCarthyist hellscape that's broadcasting gladly about their war crimes in Canada, and wants to root out communism. I guess the only fix for this issue without getting into the fine print like they had to do is just not to focus too much on the pre-war world.

#fallout #fallout 1 #fallout 2 #fallout 3 #fallout 4 #fallout new vegas #fo1 #fo2 #fonv #fo4 #I'm almost half-way through the show #it suffers from this too but whatever I'm just going to count it as it's own thing #it gets a pass or whatever. telling a video game story and telling a tv-series is completely different #they can do what they think is useful.#We see a bit of what the I'm talking about in New Vegas with mr house being able to be that rich etc #but new vegas cares more about the fallout of Fallout 2 + new ideas than some pre-war America. The most we get is like Poseidon energy and #Raul. but Raul doesn't really care that much about the details of the past world #his life seems pretty normal. it's not that important.#dead money and owb did this like... Okay. wasn't too bad it was fine. I don't like those DLCs too much. Dean Domino is whatever

I finally broke down and made a youtube video essay!

It's about Community, Saw, autism, horror, and queerness; because I've got a lot of shit to say on all of those topics. If you're interested in literally any of those subjects then you'll probably have a good time and I'd really appreciate if you check it out. It should be perfectly understandable even if you're going in with zero knowledge of either of the fandoms, since it's fundamentally about the sense of alienation that comes from being neurodivergent and having weird interests.

This has been like all I've thought about for the past month, I taught myself video editing for this shit. Also there's captions available for the entire thing (which was somehow the hardest part because youtube has some fucky funcitonality), if that's something that's important for you.

Dude can we see more of Jed’s reaction to Brokeback Mountain? Pretty please?

Taking this a bit more literally and drawing his reactions to watching the movie is so in character for me.

Continuation from this post

Famous last words

Jed 28 minutes in the movie

Totally not my reactions while watching it, definitely not...

He goes through the 5 stages of grief and then some

Alone with his thoughts

Oh no indeed

He's in denial

#did anyone else cry when they watched brokeback mountain? just me?#sorry this took long. I drew a lot of things and more drawings -> more time needed #ask #answered #not anon #brokeback mountain #night at the museum #natm #natm octavius #Octavius #gaius octavius #natm jedediah #jedediah #jedediah smith #jedediah and octavius #jedtavius #fanart #art #traditional art #I reached the photo limit on the app (it's only 10 photos. on the browser is like 30 or more)#long post #sorry #honestly when I was watching the movie I wasn't expecting them to do the say gex until later. I got jumpscared #also I was almost yelling at the tv 'not right outside your house! your wife will see!' and when she appeared I started laughing #it was almost comical #then for the rest of the movie she really went 'being delulu is the solulu' and ran with it #Anyway this isn't about me #comic

LADS INCREDIBLE DISCOVERY IN WOMENS SPORT CLIMBING FINAL LMAO

THE HAT

(When looking it up I can’t find any evidence of other non-geno-related versions of this hat that have a yellow background AND writing. It’s possible this kid found a way to do some other writing and he actually doesn’t even know the penguins but I’m still losing my shit at randomly catching this xD)

#pittsburgh penguins #evgeni malkin #the geno hat #I know these are terrible pictures but it almost looks like he has the sid hat looking at the tv ‘in person’ lol #but I don’t think they ever sold it #I do own the geno hat so I was like 👁️👁️

I'm listening to a lot of Maintenance Phase (bc I love it) and this comes up sometimes, so I'll just be sat here thinking about how common it is for little kids to grow up watching their moms and other women in their life jump from diet to diet. Just as ambient background noise in your childhood, the adults around you obsess over calories aloud, express guilt over eating enjoyable food, frame exercise as a form of punishment for eating, and so on.

#how crazy is that...#and no your mom or your aunt or sisters or whoever surely aren't thinking about this as modeling a type of behavior #but that's what happens #also particularly crazy for people I talk to where you're in the age group that also had The Biggest Loser airing on tv at the time LMAO #lots of stuff happening at once there huh. crazy #sergle.txt #also yes I am gendering this SPECIFICALLY not because EDs/weight stigma/eating disorders DON'T stretch across all genders #but because it WAS specifically almost always women doing this because the diet and weight loss industries specifically target women #and because we can all think of examples in our families or in those of our friends and ppl close to us #where one or all of the women will be taking part in this behavior and IN THE BACKGROUND. the men in the house usually aren't.#and that a lot of the time this isn't enforced on them either. or the mom will be cutting calories and the dad will be visibly making fun.#sometimes families with one or two people doing this diet shit will cause it to be The Whole House Goes On A Diet #but more often than not it's a splintered effort or just one person.

Who had the worst time aboard the TARDIS?

TOURNAMENT MASTERPOST

#genuinely vote peri #i've not seen all of her stories but my god from what i've seen the 80s writers hated her #there are some stories where she'd probably be better off dead #she seems to be in a constant living torturous hell with 6 being constantly nasty too her #this poor woman #okay specific example #her first trip after her introduction (recounted from memory so some details my be wrong)#she and the doctor unknowingly touch a poisonous plant which will kill them slowly and painfully (but fast enough she almost dies by the en #so great they need to find a cure #which is horrendously difficult to find in the best of circumstances #but these aren't the best of circumstances #they get taken hostage pretty quickly and very nearly get executed by firing squad #they get rescued by one of the most unnerving villains i think in the entire show #he creeps on peri constantly #like he gets as close to assaulting her as its possible to depict on tea time telly #and peri can't do anything about it #her life is entirely in this guys hands #like most of the time i find caves of androzani the be so hyperviolent as to be funny #but jesus christ the shit they put peri through in it #anyway by the end she's so ill the doctor has to drag her near lifeless body back to the tardis #gives her the cure and then promptly regenerates #and now peri's nice friendly doctor is uhh tv 6 #bad times: quarters

You know what genre of TV episode I love?

X is stuck in a bank heist and now we need to work out why the bank robber is doing this and take down the real bad guy.

It's got everything. High stakes. Limited resources. A ticking clock before SWAT starts shooting. Someone stuck outside unable to do much more than watch in fear. The inevitable twist. No notes, perfect concept.

#Do they still do these episodes?#I don't watch a lot of TV these days #but there was a period of time where almost every show I watched had a bank heist episode #It was like it was written into the contract #And it was glorious #tv #Psych #definitely had one because I just rewatched it #I think I remember one in #Criminal Minds #as well #Leverage #Yep I remember that #Hell Supernatural had one #It's very much a 'put character in situation' trope #and it is wonderful

full on feel like pjo tv s2 is not gonna hold up so they need to drag as much attention to the series as they can by using nico as a sock puppet w tsats2

im fully expecting the show to go the way of the movies. it doesnt help Sea of Monsters is almost unanimously the least favorite book of the first series. People frequently forget it even exists or what happens in it, especially more casual fans.

Heck, just look at how little fanfare the second season has gotten so far as compared to the build up to s1. I wouldn't be surprised if s2 totally flops. It would be a little funny.

#pjo #riordanverse #pjo tv #pjo tv crit #tsats 2 #Anonymous #ask #im still sad theyre beating every dead horse in the franchise they can EXCEPT for the graphic novels #the poor graphic novels arent getting advertised AT ALL and the BoO one got cancelled #like. the graphic novels would actually be probably one of the best advertising avenues!#like. hey! you dont need to write a whole new book! just remind people of previous books and give them a way to refresh on it #and given how the first couple of graphic novels were a different artists i could totally see them doing a second version #just to make them all consistent. thatd make sense and be reasonable.#the show has also already kind of trapped itself in a corner in a couple of ways #for one they kind of screwed themselves over failing to plan for the actors. yknow. ageing.#Walker is already taller than like. most of the cast. Percy's gonna be TOWERING over Luke by TLO #i think the main trio is all like almost 16 already? and we're only on s2. its gonna be rough. they didnt think about it. they didnt plan.#also with how theyve been messing with plot and characterization theyre VERY quickly going to start running into hurdles #because they dont seem to understand the more you change earlier on. the less the later stuff will work without also needing change #because. it's dependent on what comes before. so we will very quickly be requiring either MASSIVE canon divergence or a lot of retcon #and retcon in the show is going to be VERY OBVIOUS #though i stand by itll be so funny if they solve too much too quickly in s2 just like the movies and it just ends on #''wait. crap. what are we going to do for s3 now. we solved too much too early. they have nothing to do''

it’s wild that riordan could have so much time to think about this rewrite and how he would build his world in a tv show and all he seems to have done is make it worse

#that’s all I think he’s capable of doing with the source material now cause he’s a millionaire hack #but still #he bitched and moaned for 10 years about how he needed to be in charge to make a good adaptation #and all he did was make a mediocre tv show #he sold the movie right and hated them (bad business decision)#he made himself writer on the show after getting another shot (is not a tv writer and has done a poor job)#(even with help!)#incredible and almost impressive #weird move dog #that’s what happens when you have too many people in your ear #likely yes men #you hate to see it

it’s completely insane to have the parallels of buck and eddie watching the other being rolled away into a hospital — not knowing if he’ll live, not knowing if what he did was enough — while expecting/urging everyone to work past their capacity to keep him alive btw

#zee rambles #just in case anyone was wondering it is insane #but between buck constantly yelling ‘come on’ and eddie yelling ‘do more’#the desperate urgency in both of them was just so raw - almost like we were watching something we had no right to even if it is a tv show #there’s just something so poignant of having 4x13/14 paralleled in 6x11/12 #something something if they dig your grave they better dig mine too #something about the loss and grief being paralleled and reciprocated #eddie diaz #evan buckley #buddie #911 abc #1:30am and i can’t sleep so here we are
