#i love being a nerd

[themilfsland]

It's so nice finding nerd people and being nerds together 🥹 then when the sharing our collections moment starts and you freak out together about the cool stuff you both have 🤲🤓

I just laid out all my Mando comics and !!!! I need a second.... they look so pretty finally all together 🥹

A year and a half of collecting them, it's been so much fun. I'll miss it! 🤍

I'm currently reading Pride and Prejudice for the first time and tonight I thought about how Mary Crawley probably also read Pride and Prejudice and I felt 🥹

sorry it’s a bit low quality

first glance immediately knew. this is an easy one

this is from the season 1 ova, the hamlet episode. this is specifically from when grelle was getting ready backstage before the play started, she was curling her hair and gushing about how happy she was while looking into the mirror

I really like how media stays with me long after the obsession wears off. I sometimes still say "videos game" and "oh my cob" because of OK KO. I eat a pb&j and still think of Castiel. Long after my TMA obsession wears off I'm sure I'll still occasionally look at a drawing of an eye and be like "well hello Elias". I love to carry these things with me through my life, it makes me happy

hi im sorry I just need to ramble gen loss crap somewhere this s relating to the pole you did I really don’t wanna ramble literal paragraphs in tags:

The dehumanization of content creator by both corporations and fans alike: Lets me honest this is just kind a the surface metaphorical meaning of it all im pretty its been confirmed if not I dont think I need to explain why.

How when our perception of reality is manipulated, our choices mean nothing: tbh this is kinda correct in a way?? Because it all ends in Ranboo dying right? Like let’s if he refuses to do the activities in ep 2 like he’s just gonna die yknow? Like the more you think about it our own choices didn’t really matter they all lead up to the ending scene of rans death. What if we chose live? Something tells me showfall would just erase his memory and reuse them and then the cycle could repeat until inevitable death.

One of many attempts to escape the facility that always ends in death: Kinda what i js said but like: Also it would be extremely hard for Ranboo in any way to escape. Primarily bc mind control. But let’s say that doesn’t apply. Try to escape the mall? Let’s be real the doors are gonna be jammed and there’s showfall people everywhere they’re probably just gonna inject Ranboo with something. Tries to prove to the cameras he being held hostage by showfall? In a ‘real world’ situation Is anyone gonna believe him? They might just think he’s acting. At some point showfall is js gonna get bored of dealing with them and just off him.

also did you see sneeg trying to escape-

The sanitization of today's media to better cater to and profit off of children: I could see this because it is also a VERY common thing in the world with like family channels, child beauty pageants, and what is more similar to genloss’s implementation of this: Ranboo blew up when he was 17! Tommy and Tubbo 16! They were literal minors! They were kids! It was and still is disgusting how much sexual content was produced of them when they were CHILDREN. There are endless examples of this: hundreds, if not THOUSANDS or articles made about an ‘offensive comment’ that was literally just taken out of context, tiktoks and threads saying THAT THEY SHOULD GROW UP?? they are kids!

honestly unsure what the cannon ages of the genloss characters are but if were going by irl ages Ranboo is still 19! Honestly more rambling about how kinda sad this is like, bro is 19 he is literally getting doxxed, death threats, and still creating genloss! Like their 19 and made a work that was considered for an Emmy! (Also being the only not virtual reality work)

The favorable interpretation of events we're supposed to believe vs. the truth: A LOT of ep 2 how they par-take in these games with seem innocent at first, just playing some mouse trap, introducing yourself, etc. but they are literally being held a gunpoint. The scene where Ranboo rips open Charlie it just seems like a comedic scene but for a few seconds the slime is blood. Ranboo is being forced to rip open Charlie simply to survive himself. The puzzler straight up shoots Niki TWICE and the audience(LITERALLY US LOL) feel bad, but a lot people find it funny(kinda is tho- low key loved that scene) obviously Niki is alive so its funnier but what if she actually died?

here’s more of my ramble on genloss meanings and stuff

I just the horrible effects of social media. hate from just being yourself, hate for being ‘fake’/ a ‘catfish’, hate for having fun, hate for not enjoying yourself and people telling you should be grateful. To the point where instead of being yourself you force yourself to shape into this emotionless mold just to appeal to the internet. You could try to ask for help(ranboo spelling sos in Morse code w hand),but your to far gone “you already bought a ticket and there’s no turning back now” I know this isn’t the most accurate but it’s literally 4am lol

Social Media|Showfall Media ya see it?

Srry for the such unorganized thoughts and crap im a dying autistic. -☁︎🪷(just a name to recognize me by you never know also I’m rambling more here about random shit-)

I’ve been trying to think of a response to this ask for a solid five minutes but I just can’t. I just, I’m so so so happy right now. Like, literally smiling ear to ear. You have no idea how happy this makes me. :DDDDD

I adore analyzing media to pieces but with genloss specifically, I also enjoy understanding all of the different influences and interpretations from the audience. Normally, once I find an interpretation I like (either created by me, the most popular, or simply the first one I see) I stick with it, hard. All future thoughts about that media run through the certain interpretation filter only, which isn’t y’know the most open mindset I’ll admit lmao. I think what was different about genloss was a combination of me being a genlosser from the very beginning, being share my theories publicly for the first time, and probably the biggest reason, I didn’t believe the most popular interpretation.

I’ve always been an OUR CHOICE DOESNT MATTER believer since the beginning and could never get on the content creator exploitation train before it left the station. So I guess it gave me a different perspective in regards to reading and sharing analysis posts. Somehow both more critical and more understanding, like I could tell you how the dehumanizing cc theory only applies to eps 2 and 3, while acknowledging that the end of ep 3 literally had a choice that supposedly did matter so who tf cares we’re all having fun. And then I wondered if the cc interpretation was the most popular one and now we’re here.

And so far, it turns out that yeah it very much is lol. But all the notes going into detail about why they believe what they believe just gave me so much more insight and appreciation for the theory. Not just that one but all other interpretations, timeloops, capitalism allegories, your social media parallels just to name a few, have grown a special place in my heart in a way that hasn’t happened to me before genloss. Idk it’s just very cool and I love hearing ‘em all.

Also so I can be told very obvious things I haven’t noticed before. Like how am I just now understanding Social Media -> Showfall Media pfffff

Lego UCS Razor Crest update after 4 bags now, she's slowly taking shape!!

In the introduction to the build, the designers said they put in plenty of references to the show and to look out for them as you build. Well, I'm slowly seeing them so I'm going to gush over some little details below the cut!!

The ladder up to the cockpit, which is slowly looking more recognisable! I think they included the little silver ball and I can't wait to add that detail when that comes 🥹

In this bag I also added Cobb/Boba's armour with some weapons and storage... AND THE BOXES!! I think they're meant to contain the binocs Din gives to the Tuskens in Ch5 and we see again in Ch9, plus some bombs. On top of the boxes, I think it's maybe meant to be the bowl we see Din and Grogu slurping soup out of at the beginning of Ch12 and Grogu's blue cookies from the same episode!

Alternatively, I could be reading far too much into this but I'M GOING TO IT'S THE UCS RAZOR CREST, WHAT DID YOU EXPECT!!

Here's the view looking down the whole hull so far. SO COOL.

And that's where I'm at so far!! I'll share other interesting parts of the build as I get to them :')

See the thing about being a weird kid in middle school that’s grown into an undercover weird kid is that when your family members ask you to go shopping with them for a birthday present and the only things on the list say demon slayer, cats, and sketchbooks, they just sit back and let me work. I fucking got this.
