#i'm not sure if this is shitposting or not

[zombrigit]

#not a shitpost#sure ai played a role in making google worse but it's been GETTING worse for a long time#yeah capitalism plays a huge role in this. but late stage capitalism and fascism are holding hands dancing in a field of flowers & rainbows#so.#maybe it's just an added incentive. a bonus that keeps google from worrying about its main product turning to shit#it owns us and where else are we gonna go? and if enshittification serves the interests of the ruling powers. so much the better#what's good for the oligarchs is good for the fascists too. probably as simple as that#i keep telling my brain 'dont go into conspiracy mode am i going into conspiracy mode'#and then i remember any part of the last century of human history and i just.#crazier things have happened. crazy things ARE happening#that's a bonus of living in the Disinformation Age#it makes you feel crazy! you have few reliable sources and no frame of reference for the reality of the situation#because you aren't allowed to see the reality. reality is being suppressed#so you are looking wildly around in the dark imagining what's happening and asking yourself if you're crazy for what you're imagining#i...am experiencing a sudden visceral clarity about the cold war paranoia era#like i get it now. i get why everyone was insane in the 70s and 80s#I don't even blame them it hasn't even been a full decade of this and I'm halfway there

am I crazy or does the fact that google has become unusable feel premeditated

MC did the unthinkable. Stepping on a cats paw

Did i write this to cope with stepping full force on my own cat binxy's paw? Yes. Is it also deeply silly? Also yes. Was the entire premise "god i feel like throwinf myself off of a bridge for my crimes. Wait i can make a crackfic of this"? Yes again

Cw: suicide joke, the suicide joke is the only plot so if youre not about that at all maybe this one isnt for you bestie.

Haha i say plot like this is more than 100 words. Shitpost is more accurate tbh

Mc, on the edge of a bridge: IM GONNA JUMP!

Mammon: YA HAVE SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR!

Lucifer: we're running out of options, BEEL PUPPYDOG EYES!

Satan: what the FUCK happened while we were out????

Asmo, holding 3 giant tote bags of Trendy Health Juices: i just wanted juice! And now this????? What did you do?

Mammon: i didnt do anythin! In fact if you will open yer eyes im the one tryna get them off the bridge!

Levi: well it- it happened like... now dont get mad.

Satan, already transforming: What. Happened. Did you do this!?

Levi, so fast its hard to understand: mc was in a dark hallway and stepped on your black cats paw full force and the guilt has been eating them alive for the past 20 minutes so they decided to take a swan dive into cursed devildom waters

Mc, sobbing: MY PATHETIC HUMAN EYES ARENT MADE FOR DARKNESS! THE ETERNAL NIGHT OF THIS GODFORSAKEN RELM HAS BETRAYED ME! SHE HAD TOO PERFECT CAMOUFLAGE FOR MY WEAK MISERABLE BIOLOGY! CAN YOU EVER FORGIVE ME BATWOMAN???!!!

Levi: wait batwoman? I thought the cat was named Batty? Yknow. Bc her little paws go bat bat

Asmo: the female black cats full legal name is Batwoman The Badass. Protector Of Gotham and HoL Destroyer of t-

Satan:.... I-

Mammon, flinching: is... the bomb gonna go off?

Satan:..... its......

Satan, eye twitching, still half transformed: ffffffine.... I'm-... you're adequately remorseful-........ i- uh its that- the important th- thing is. Um- you- your- youre- you are- the- you

Satans brain: [on fire trying to choose between "protect cat" and "love and empathize with MC"]

Satan: i- its-......... youre trying. For sure. .......And. Im sure... uh... lemmet put these away and then i- um... I'll have.... better... words....

Satan: [takes a step]

Heretofore unseen dusty grey cat: YRREEEWWWWWWAH [bolts while favoring one of its paws]

Mammon:....

Lucifer:....

Levi:....

Asmo:....

Beel:.....

Belphie:....

Satan:.... 😨

Mc:..... I'll move over if

Satan, teleporting in: I'm already here.

Mammon: Fuck! Now i gotta play double duty?!

Satan and MC: WE DO NOT DESERVE TO LIVE IN THIS WORLD AS UNFORGIVABLE ANIMAL ABUSERS!

Satan: Cats deserve better. I gracefully accept my end.

MC: we are the SCUM OF THE EARTH

Mammon: DONT JUMP! SERIOUSLY ITS A BAD IDEA! I MEAN- UH- WHO WILL FEED YER CATS?? NOT LUCIFER!

Belphie: DO A FLIP!

Lucifer: BELPHAGOR!

Belphie: What? Satan's got magic and MC has all these pacts. They’ll survive. Now i gotta make a tiktok of this

Dawg, how are there seriously people who look at any of the posts made on this or my other game concept art blogs and try to ask me for a commission.

Im not talking about the bots, but like actual people will ask for a commission. They will see game art or concept art and FR think I made it.

Like they somehow only see the art and not the artist and game credits listed right there with it?

Even if you're not familiar with a series and one of my blog posts comes up on your recommended, surely it's obvious from the game and artist being listed in the post that I'm not the artist?

Every art post lists the game the art is from + the artist credits (if we know who the artist is)

It's not like any of this info is hidden in the tags.

I also put "stuff like "blog dedicated to official art from the [X] series" in all my blogs bios.

-----

It's frustrating because the whole point of these blogs I run is to serve as a public resource for artist credits on all these games I love.

My hope is for my blogs to help the fandom(s) further give these artists the credit they deserve.

The only OC you will see here are memes and shitposts.

All the rest is credited art by professional industry artists whos names we all should take the time to at least recognize if we like their work.

If I post something by an unknown artist I always be sure to include "if you know the artist comment below!" so as a fandom we can pool our knowledge to help give an unknown artist the credit they deserve.

I hate it when I see official art from a series get posted and no artist credits are included when we actually know exactly who made it.

Often times there's only a handful of web blogs or wiki sources listing all this art and even fewer with the actual artist credits included. I wanted to help in that regard.

All the effort it takes to find and credit artists is alot of work, but my hope is others can be like:

"Ah! So that's the name of the artist who made that design/art I love!"

I have a lot of fun on these blogs. It's a blast being here with you all. But more than just the fun we have, I really hope these blogs are doing a good enough job in educating fans about art and artists from the games they love.

Hello, I am going out for a friend's birthday tonight, and the last time I did that, I did drunk karaoke and then sent you NikPrice asks at like 5 am. So to counter that, instead of getting overly drunk and Scottish, I'm gonna be nice now.

Your writing really helped me get into the COD fandom, especially the NikPrice kind of things. It'll never cease to amaze me how many exceptional writers you'll find so long as you look in the right places. It also helped me gain the confidence to make my own blog and start posting my nonsense.

I also appreciated the Happy New Year because I did follow the advice and get plastered, the only reason I'm staying anon is because I refuse to ask this on my main because that's where my shitposting is and I can't be known for that lmao.

Anyway, if you get a NikPrice ask later on that's a lot less coherent then that's me again, just seven drinks in.

Have a good day :]

I think I have sussed out who this is and I am so glad you started posting. You're a gift to the fandom. I hope you had an amazing night with your mates and make sure you drink a pint of water before hitting the sack.

As for my night as a "bar tender", I have been reduced to making sex on the beach in my protein shake bottles because all the other shakers have been used for other drinks. Also, I ran out of ice because the ice machine got rinsed. So really I am drinking lukewarm alcohol with Morrison's own brand mixer (pineapple and orange juice).

How they react to y/n getting an abortion

his wasn't requested I just found it funny. I'm lacking on my shitposting recently. Featuring: BSD, JJK and HSR men.

Brings y/n to the hospital, is sure to take good care afterward even if its not necessary. Won't bother or ask about it - he understands the process so there's no need for him to really argue.

Nanami, Kunikida, Dr. Ratio, Fukuzawa, Dan Heng

Was about to dip after he saw the positive pregnancy test, but was glad to know that the baby was deleted. No hate to kids, but bro is just not that guy.

Jouno, Moze, Fukuchi, Chuuya

Dips anyway. Too many sweats, he's just gonna be gay now.

Dazai, Gojo, Fyodor

Dude has a vasectomy, so how the fuck did y/n get pregnant? He leaves y/n, or at the very least is very suspicious.

Boothill, Svarborg

She's a woman, so how the fuck did y/n get pregnant? There are a lot of questions that need to be answered.

Yukong, Shoko, Yosano, Margaret, Feixiao

Gets one alongside y/n so they can bond over it. No one ask who the father is

Choso, Serval, Tecchou

Tries to sell the fetus on the black market

Toji, Blade, Ango, Jiaoqiu, Nikolai

Pisses and cries trying to convince y/n to keep it. By god, break up with him.

If we take a break for a moment from the funny meme or self-aware kink indulgence understanding of the 'bimbo', and instead examine it as a sort of sexist fantasy - that is, literally a fantasy of ideal womanhood as imagined by a sexist - then we can come to understand that the 'himbo' is not the masculine counterpart. There is discourse to mine out of the idea that the himbo represents a sexist fantasy of ideal manhood, but I think that the himbo actually represents a sort of halfway step between the bimbo and her true counterpart.

The bimbo embodies sexist 'ideals' of womanhood, taken to an extreme and bent to the desires of the sexist (presumed straight, male) imagination. She is:

1) physically attractive in sexual terms, to an extreme - both a pleasure to possess and a status symbol to display to others

2) always horny (thus, always sexually available)

3) unintelligent in the traditional sense - not good at organization, STEM fields, academic learning, etc. this keeps her...

4) nonthreatening - she won't outshine a man in any domain of (the sexist ideas of) male competence, and

5) dependent - in need of a big strong smart man to provide for her, reassuring said man's sense of self-worth

All of these line up with traditional sexist ideas of womanhood - where the bimbo has flaws, they're not feminine flaws, and she still possesses feminine strengths (according to the sexist mindset).

So, the male counterpart of the bimbo should embody sexist ideals of manhood, taken to an extreme and bent to the desires of the sexist imagination. If we compare to the bimbo's features listed above, then:

1) physical attractiveness is desirable for men but not a key feature - a man can be manly while being ugly in a way a woman cannot be womanly if she is ugly.

2) horniness is not seen as desirable for men - it is expected and excused by sexists, but it's considered threatening to those who are its targets and a lot of sexism towards men is based in this assumed threat.

3) traditional intelligence is considered manly, but emotional intelligence isn't - in fact, it's seen as unmanly.

4) being threatening is harder to extract from manliness, as is...

5) being dependent, but it is possible, even required - men are just expected to be non-threatening and dependent in a different way.

Remembering that we're looking for a sexist ideal rather than a sexual ideal, we need to identify how sexism towards men works. Men are not sexually objectified under traditional sexism, but they are still objectified. This objectification is based on utility - an objectified man is reduced to a tool. He is wanted for what he can do and how well he does it, not in himself. His personhood is reduced to what makes him useful and controllable, and when he is not being of use he is unseen. He does not feel pain, he does not feel emotions that make him less of a perfect undemanding worker or soldier, he is permitted to suffer or rage or weep only for the things he serves and never for himself.

The male counterpart of a bimbo would be:

1) physically obviously useful - big and strong and tough, to an extreme, convenient for whoever he serves and an implicit threat to their enemies

2) seldom horny (thus never sexually threatening)

3) emotionally unintelligent - lacking the ability to understand or express the feelings of others or even his own (if he even has them) - in order to help make him:

4) unthreatening, in the sense of being easily controllable and socially inferior, and

5) dependent - in need of an inspiring leader, abstract ideals or a sole source of comfort to fulfill his emotional needs, further securing his loyalty and obedience.

I put it to you, then:

Space Marines are the male counterpart of bimbos, and becoming one is bimbofication.

had a vivid dream where there was a "play as Kim" mod and I was super excited

after like 2 mins gameplay Harry just turned around looking scandalised and was like "Ohgod... It's me, Kim. *I'm* Grandpa Piss!"

he refused to elaborate even after I savescummed and exhausted all dialogue options

then a notification flashed like "THOUGHT GAINED: GRANDPA PISS" and I went to the thought cabinet screen. all it said was "What the fuck does he mean by that."

Hey just so y'all know, I have the high quality version of that one Agent 4 image

Now I'm not the original creator, but I saved the image around early 2023 and its been sitting in my files collecting dust (not really since it's on a computer) until I was browsing said files today. Enjoy the quality btw.

EDIT 6/21/24: Thanks to @splatsavvy for knowing who's the user that made the image! Here's the link to the original post on Reddit!

First meeting

Had Odysseus been smarter, he would've perhaps asked Hades to help him evade Poseidon. I mean, Hades was surely annoyed. Poor guy had 500 new arrivals to deal with all because of his brother's little tantrum.
