has stanley ever tried taking off the narrator's mask?

to be honest, stanley just kinda thinks that's his actual face until the Narrator actually tells him otherwise. he probs just assumes that his model is busted or something and that's why his face looks like that. but also it would be funny if he just

I think it's always gonna bother me how Gregory's hair is modeled so differently than Vanessa and Cassies-

Why do Vanessa and Cassie have visible hair strands when Gregorys hair is really shaped and cartoony?? Like if it was just Cassie having more detailed hair then I'd get it cause they could've just changed how they modeled hair for the DLC, but Vanessa and Gregory are both literally in the same game

I heard 'suit' and 'crying' and I knew what I had to do (plus a extra kinda shitty comic haha)

You understand Junko and her character better than her creators do ~♡

Thank you very much!!! She’s special to me, I fully believe she wasn’t meant to be written as tragic as she is, but if you look at what got her there she’s such a tragedy. I’m in strong belief that The Tragedy wouldn’t have happened (or at the very least could have been controlled) if Hope’s Peak wasn’t run like that, and if she had gotten help. With the way that school functioned, Junko was inevitable.

She’s very special to me. I’m happy people enjoy my interpretation of her!! I’ll be doodling her more from a fucked up little AU my brother and I have soon so look out for a revamped Survivor!Junko design!!

[astranauticus]

not to further out myself as a cosplayer but anyway sometimes i do wonder if there's a higher power because i'd been mentally debating buying this absolutely beautiful cosplay for ebenholz' eine variation skin on taobao for WEEKS like it was just in my cart while i waffled about it and yesterday a friend texted me with absolutely no context to ask if i wanted to get anything from taobao because they wanted to get a better deal on shipping so yknow. im just taking that as some kind of Sign

[giselberts]

Ya know I was just thinking about the Villain Champions AU and how when they first met Iris they wanted to show her how to be a proper champion. Like how to kill those who defy her or how to use her power to get what she wants. But what if she outright refused to do anything they tried to teach her? Because she knew it wasn’t the right thing to do to others

Would they think of her as a failure of a champion. Someone who wouldn’t use their power and influence to “better” the world of the ones who they deem wrong. Would they try get her to resign as champion with threats so that someone better can try take the position?

Or would they still “protect” her like they did in the beginning. When she was still learning how to get rid of the people who looked down at her and get what she wanted with lies and threats. They’d think of her as a pacifist, but she’s still a champion. So if she won’t defend herself then they’ll do it for her

ouuuggghHHHXKSBDMSN that's so fuckin dope tho shit

Like that thing of them still protecting her

Cause like cbdmnd imagine if they force her to watch as they kill someone who shit talked her tho, like really holding her down, Lance and Cynthia just forcing her to sit all while Diantha calls her Aegislash and beheads the person who messed w her hcmxbd

Iris is probably there crying her heart out, telling them that what they're doing is wrong, that they're murderers, that they shouldn't kill people, they're champions they should protect people

Then the other champions are there telling her that they are Champions, but everyone took advantage of their kindness, looked down on them even tho they're the strongest trainers of the region, set impossible standards for all of them that it took a toll on their own psyche, like ofc that'd mess a mfer up

But at this point, Iris isn't even sure if what they're telling her is actually right. If they really were taken advantage of by the people they were forced to promise to protect, she doesn't know if the people actually set those standards on them that it broke them, she doesn't know if they're lying or not. Because she knows too, bc people have looked down on her too, had taken her kindness for granted, and still even after proving herself to the Unovan people, she still wasn't enough for them. And now she's wondering if that's what the other champions went through too.

And just bcmxnx ough yknow, the other champions being there to comfort her, to tell her what they're doing is actually right, that they're just doing it to protect her. She was still a new champion after all, she still has so much to learn, she's still young, and.. young minds are easy to carve and mold into whatever you wanted it to, you just have to know how to do it. I'm sure the champions will help her see just how powerful of a Champion she could be, she just has to obey their every word, and then she'll be perfect.

ok i tgink one reason i domt play genshin anymore is because when i played enstars i thiught the models looked so much better and it made me angry and that genshins like . werent bad but they werent as good?

[machinedramon]

on one hand i appreciate just how gay all the npcs in wow seem to be

on the other hand it’s getting a little silly bc i don’t think i’ve run into a single hetero couple this whole expansion

[mouseratz]

tnt Barbies face mold is like. THE cunty fashion doll. no one's ever done it like her. she even had rooted eyelashes.....why don't we get those anymore unless we pay five million dollars.......sure sure sure the other face molds are cute. and probably friendlier. but she's like jaw drop gorgeous

the irony is I may be starting a Barbie hyper fixation without ever having watched the movie. Im just enthused about old toys and information about old toys

[transmutationisms]

i would love to hear more about your criticisms of the BITE model! for me it always feels.. unfalsifiable? it seems to do poorly at distinguishing a cult from any other community, if you squint at the definitions

yeah so first of all i'm not particularly keen on even trying to defend the category of "cult" in general. obviously abuse and control methods can and do happen in groups, but i don't think it's particularly useful to talk about this like there's a strict dichotomy between evil malicious groups and all the others. and i think generally, when people do try to sort groups into strict categories like that, what you actually see is that the differentiating factor is less to do with the degree of control exerted by the group and more to do with how much the person doing the sorting is bothered by the group's ideology or doctrinal commitments lol. like, this is sort of baby's first cult concept critique but yknow, a group setting where you're being extremely openly financially controlled is your job and yet most workplaces, however abusive and surveilled and controlling, are not typically designated a 'cult' unless they're also peddling some kind of heterodox religious or medical claims or something.

anyway in regards to BITE in particular, yeah i think it does a really poor job of distinguishing between a 'normal' level of social pressure to say/do certain things, and the kind of control that ostensibly characterises a cult. for example steven hassan has called both MAGA and online trans communities cults, and a lot of this comes down to his persistent and pretty open belief in the power of 'mind control' and hypnosis as mechanisms of cult control. ofc any group of any political persuasion could engage in abuse and high-control of its members! usually this occurs by financial means, social isolation, etc. but hassan's BITE model isn't really good at identifying these kinds of material factors despite paying lip service to them, because it's more motivated by his desire to root out these kinds of shadowy quasi-occult forces of mental reprogramming that he fears.

i just find the whole model to be pretty silly and used mostly as a way of justifying dislike of lots of different social, religious, and political groups---some of which are genuinely mistreating members, some of which are just saying things their critics disagree with---because it's perceived as a reliable social-scientific designation and therefore name-dropping it helps the speaker feel that they're making some kind of objective scientific observation rather than a judgment dependent, as are all judgments, upon their own perspective and values. i think instead of this kind of haggling over Which Groups Count As An Evild Shadowy Cult it would be infinitely more productive and helpful to vulnerable people to talk about how high-control groups operate, what sorts of methods specific groups are using to control and abuse their members, and what sorts of resources those members are dependent on the groups for and need access to from other sources: financial and material provisions, social support networks, etc.

Genshin SAGAU except Reader is a lore fanatic

cw: lore dump, archon quest spoilers, side quest spoilers, etc

“ guys did u know that the Sea Ganoderma is actually souls of children who died young trapped and is forced to spend generations absorbing elements from the sand and sea as the form of punishment?? ” “ what the fuck your grace. ” Tighnari muttered.

“yelan, i know where u got ur jacket. ” “ o- oh, really, Your Grace? ” Yelan stuttered, sweat dropping. “ Yeah, i know u stole it from a Fatui Harbinger that was supposed to be a gift for the Tsaritsa and made some 'adjustments' to make it fit your style. ” you stated with a smirk, while yelan tries to hold in her cries because you rlly are a Divine Being, knowing everything about Teyvat.

Archon quest spoilers down ahead

“ Guys, I have a theory that the upside down Statue of the Seven and city the Traveler and Paimon saw are actually the correct way and that proves it because when I took a walk at Spiral Abyss when I went down I expected it to be pitch black but instead I'm met with the galaxy sky and a moon and possibly, Khaenri 'ah and Enkanomiya are the ones that are actually in the surface, while Teyvat is underground and yknow what? Scaramouche is RIGHT. The stars are fake the sky is fake everything is fake as we know of HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ” your maniacal laughter echoed through the Akademiya as many Researchers are baffled by this amount of information

“ Alhaitham, do you have a second? ” “ Of course, Your grace. What is it? ” “ Are you the Scarlet King ” “ ........ excuse me ”

“ WELL i noticed that the color of your eyes matches the Scarlet King's eyes, and your boots matches the color of the buildings of the Scarlet King's Civilization. A blue gem appeared when the Scarlet King sacrificed himself and it kinda looked like the gems at your back. And when you do your burst it looks REALLY similar to the Primal Constructs’ attacks, and the Primal Constructs are what's left of the Scarlet King's civilization. And at your chest it looks like it has the wings of an eagle, and your name literally means young eagle. What does this have to do with the Scarlet King? Well, at the Dunes I've ventured, I've seen murals and a figure with a bird head and it could possibly be the Scarlet King but it strangely reminded me of you!!! Plus, you know how to use the devices made by the Scarlet King, whereas the books and researchers at the Akademiya shows no information on how to properly use them. Pretty suspicious...... ”

and then theres alhaitham sweating his balls off on how the hell did you get that information.

“ guys, did you know that when Enkanomiya was plunged deep into the ocean, they created a fake sun called Helios to survive, right??? But actually, the nobles wanted more power. They wanted a puppet or ruler that they could easily control or manipulate. And WHO WOULD MAKE A GOOD CANDIDATE??? THAT'S RIGHT! A CHILD. AND THUS, BEGIN THE REIGN OF THE SUNCHILDREN. They were young and ignorant, obviously easy to be deceived and lied to. They were manipulated to commit heinous deeds. The first Sunchild was deceived to imprisoning his role model for life, aka isolated from everyone. The sunchildren were DESPISED by their own people, EVEN THE CARETAKERS ARENT ALLOWED TO SPEAK TO THEM. Knowing that the Sunchildren could realize that they were being manipulated, the nobles then introduced Rite of Solar Return. Now what the hell is a Rite of Solar Return??? Basically, when a Sunchild hits a certain age, they will be taken into the inner sanctum of Helios. The artificial Sun's high temperature could AND WOULD incinerate them alive!!!!! AND SOMEHOW, SOME HAVE SIMILARITIES WITH OUR CURRENT ARCHONS!!! Orupeusu had a talent for the lyre, aka the Anemo Archon. Risutaiosu made lifelike sculptures, like the Electro Archon. And Isumenasu would roam his country, AND EVEN HAD A SPEAR LIKE THE GEO ARCHON AT HIS GRAVE!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA I AM A GENIUS ”

the fact that people would still listen to your rants about Teyvat but still be concerned about your mental health is hilarious

if you werent the Divine Being of All, they would've locked you up where no one can find you, you know

Dottore would like you tho

so that's good
