#it's not nostalgia that feels different

[pantherpilz]

you ever just miss past you, but you know it's better not to look back?

Hey friends.

Just so you know, the blanket fort's always there if you need it.

Doesn't matter how long it's been. Doesn't matter if you still have hope or if you've given up. Doesn't matter if you're sad or angry or scared or a just a bit lonely. Doesn't matter if you feel a bit silly for however you're feeling.

There's always going to be someone there to welcome you. That's the beauty of fandom.

I love you.

Door's the blue cushion.

Actually, quick thing that I mentioned in a reply, but I really feel that the Powerpuff Girls, especially the first couple of seasons, needs to be watched at night. I know that sounds like such a silly thing to say in a world where you can just watch the show whenever you want, but I really do think it lends itself to a different vibe when you’re in a dark room all alone with the TV. The stakes feel higher! Things feel cooler! I don’t know how to explain it, man!

Like... this is the optimal example of how/when to watch the PPG. Right here. ⬆️

That's Where You're Wrong

"This were the last song we did for it. I think something we've always struggled to do is get a record that– I mean they've all got their own identity but I dunno know ... there's always an exception or something that is leading onto something else perhaps. I guess on the last album it would be 'Cornerstone' and on the album before I guess it were '505' or something. I think this is that song and maybe on this one where it doesn't quite– I mean it fits in but it's got summat else about it. I always wanna do that like get a blueprint and make this album neat and tidy but it never works out being neat and tidy with us."

something that gives me joy is the fact that some people still haven't played Minecraft. they can pick up Minecraft for the first time! and play it! and I can still share Minecraft knowledge with people who need it! the world is full of wonder

if the only footage youve seen of the game doesnt actually give you a good idea of what the game/story is like (like its from a parody video or is otherwise heavily edited for example) then it doesnt count as having watched the game and you should pick little to no actual exposure to the game. only interacting with the games content through fanart/fanfic/etc also counts as little to no actual exposure to the game

I think as we grow up, we have to be really conscious of romanticizing the world we grew up in in order to scorn how the next generations are growing up.

Nostalgia isn't inherently bad, but especially in political spaces, be very wary of this idea that there is an Ideal Past we must Harken Back To.

It sucks to feel left behind, but such is the human condition. It isn't bad to feel nostalgic, but that doesn't mean that these new generations are inherently "lost" and "need to be saved (by you)", and I think that is very important to remember and try to be conscious of.

Have we, as a fandom, progressed to the point that we can realize that Twilight of the Apprentice, while a good episode, is not a particularly great Rebels episode and is certainly the least functional finale in the entirety of Rebels?

There needs to be a special kind of analog-nostalgia for whatever the heck was going on with the touch screens of the Nintendo DS. Cuz, yeah it‘s a touch screen, but it doesn‘t feel like one, y‘know? It feels more tactile, closer to buttons than modern touchscreens. Honestly that type of touch screen could be a honorary analogue feature, as a treat <3

Kris is a funny person closer to how frisk is a funny person, usually with them acting out ridiculous performances to please people.

It's an important motif throughout the games, and whenever the protags stop being funny, it's extremely noticeable and a sign of bad news, tied to being unpersonned.

(Neutral vs No Mercy Save Points. Frisk shows a bit of unambiguous personality here.)

(Noelle and Kris don't goof off with weird route exclusive items - normally they love to.)
