"Games mean via their dynamics."

It's a sentence I've heard a few times from different people. These are professional game designers, who have thought a lot about this art form. I think a lot about this art form too, which is why I seek out every talk, interview, and book I can find on the topic. And these people are trying to find the answer to "How do games create meaning?"

"Games mean via their dynamics."

This is a reference to the MDA framework, which stands for Mechanics, Dynamics, and Aesthetics. It was some game scholars' attempts in the mid-2000s to put a science to the art of game design. In this framework Mechanics, which are the rules and logic behind the game, create Dynamics, all the interactions and behaviors that happen at runtime. These then create Aesthetics, the underlying feelings of the game, the reasons why we play it. As an example, a shooter having a low ammo count (Mechanic) forces you to conserve your ammo, (Dynamic) which leads to an atmosphere of tension and caution. (Aesthetic) Designers are trying to achieve specific aesthetics, but only have direct control over the mechanics. That middle layer makes all the difference, and that can be frustrating.

"Games mean via their dynamics."

This is an interesting thing for me, as a burgeoning game designer. I like to think that stories, characters, and themes can be conveyed through mechanics. A lot of my work on games like Fiora was done with this exact mindset. But what this sentence means is that I can create all the mechanics I want, deciding for myself what they mean, but all of that intent vanishes as soon as it gets in the hands of a player. And that terrifies me.

Games mean via their dynamics.

If a designer puts a mechanic into a game, and it creates no dynamics, does the mechanic mean anything? I think about this a lot when looking back on Fiora: Full Bloom, possibly my most well-known title. It's a turn-based RPG, made using the vestigial functions of an engine designed for walking simulators. It has a lot of clever ideas, and I'd recommend you play it to see them, but relevant to our conversation is this: The stats and formulas underlying Fiora's combat are deliberately obfuscated. It shows you attributes like Power and Resilience, but they don't mean what you think they mean, and it's on you to interpret their functions. I actually included a stat, called Logic, which does nothing. Literally nothing, it does not matter whether you raise or lower it. This was meant as a "checkmate, atheists" kind of burn, as logic alone cannot get one out of an emotional spiral. But crucially, in early versions at least, I didn't *tell* anybody that Logic was a useless stat. I wanted people to come to their own conclusions, hopefully realizing naturally that Logic doesn't do anything, and questioning what that means. I wanted players to create their own understanding of the mechanics, to have Fiora be a canvas of interpretation. But...

Games mean via their dynamics.

Ultimately, the open interpretation canvas didn't work. I'm sure for some people it did, but most players ended up confused, nonplussed, or just checking the guide I wrote. The game hid its true colors too well, and most people only connected with its message *after* checking the guide. The game was just better when it was explicit, and it was more meaningful once players understood the mechanics. A mechanic inert, standing in the code, means nothing unless the player experiences it.

A mechanic on its own cannot create an aesthetic, there *must* be a dynamic.

I'm working right now on a party game about pirates and capitalism, getting extremely antsy waiting for the first playtest. I have all these high-minded ideas of what the game is about, but ultimately the players are the ones who decide what the game is. In his talk, "Dynamics: The State of the Art," Clint Hocking argues that a multiplayer game like Go, Badminton, or Street Fighter might not mean much innately, but an individual session can be loaded with meaning. Go isn't "about" a conflict between traditionalism and progressivism, but Shūsai vs Kitani was. Two kids playing Badminton in the backyard might not be particularly rigorous, but a game between Djokovic and Federer can influence a nation's view of its own national identity. A fight in Street Fighter isn't really about Ryu vs Ken, but about two players with different ideas of what the game is about, fighting to see who's wins. By this framing, a game means something different each session. The mechanics just give players the tools to create meaning of their own.

Games mean via their dynamics.

This is death of the author, only so much worse. At least in a book, the words are the same. Each word might mean different things to different people, but we can still have a consistent idea of what a sentence, in the abstract, "means." A movie may be interpreted in countless ways, but it's still the same shots, the same cuts, the same directorial decisions. It's still the same story, you know? But when you make a game, each player will have a different story, even in a largely linear affair. Your playthrough of Pokemon Legends: Arceus will not be the same as mine, it will have different characters, different challenges, different arcs. Your player character may have been a trainer or a surveyor, but mine was a hunter. And that was achieved through my personal interaction with the game's mechanics.

It was achieved through the dynamics.

This is *why* Roger Ebert said that games could never be art! Creative control isn't strict enough, the creator doesn't get to decide what the game is about, they don't even decide what it *is!* But he said that over a decade ago, and he's dead now, so who really cares anymore? Well, I do. Not because I'm insecure about the legitimacy of games as an art form, but because I worry that my game's meaning is out of my control. I can say that my game is a critique of capitalism, but is it really? Will people really come out of this game liking capitalism less? Or will I fall into the Monopoly trap of making capitalism fun? It's not about what I personally want, because like,

Games mean via their dynamics!

In the 2010s the popular conception of games was that they are "empathy machines," letting you understand someone's situation in a way only games can allow. This was a big part of the conversation surrounding games like Depression Quest, Dys4ia, and Cart Life. But is that what they're trying to be, and are they successful? In his talk, "You Have No Idea How Hard It Is to Run a Sweatshop," Soren Johnson talks about the ways games have tried and failed to create empathy in audiences. A game that put you in the role of a poor person made players think the poor just need to ration their money better. A game that made you a sweatshop manager to show how increasing quotas make you sell more of your soul ended up creating more empathy for the managers than the workers. All of the mechanics were in place to make a pointed message about the state of our world, but when put in the hands of players they sent the exact opposite message.

Games mean via their dynamics.

This is all very high-minded and academic, from someone who cares about this stuff a lot. But maybe it's overthinking things a little? Like, both Hocking and Johnson say that games are about their dynamics, and not their cutscene narrative. But does it have to be an either-or? While people who don't give a shit about mechanics and play games for the traditional stories are enjoying games in a very different way than I tend to, I wouldn't say they're enjoying games Wrong. I think game literacy requires an understanding of how gameplay creates meaning, but that doesn't mean games have to be "pure" in their ludic narrative. I think back to Ian Danskin's video about Bastion, where he points out that there is no pure storytelling medium, and that all stories bastardize the medium they're told in. But every medium gives a unique method for telling stories, that we shouldn't dismiss just because they're not "pure" forms of the medium. Games mean via their dynamics, and they mean via many other things too, and that array of possibilities is what gives games their character. So just, make games, you know?

I wrote most of that last night, and now today's the day of my playtest. I think I'll be okay with whatever happens. Whatever dynamics the game creates will help guide my development in the coming weeks. I can't control the dynamics, and that's the beautiful thing about them. But I can create the right conditions for fun, entertaining, and thought-provoking dynamics. The designer of a playground can't control how the kids play, but they can influence it by giving them the means to make their own fun. Playgrounds are an art. And I encourage you, if you've gotten this far, to think harder about the meaning created by the games you play. Not just by the dialogue, or the cutscenes, or the "story" as it were, but by the moment-to-moment interactions in the game's dynamics. Think about what the game does to you, and what kind of person it makes you. Because I love this medium, and I hope I've made you love it just a little bit more.

going through the @who-do-i-know-this-man polls very carefully now it’s on the 4th round. trying to think deeply if i know any of these characters at all somewhere in my memory lol

Welcome to TwoPartPosts

Howdy! This blog serves as an archive of tumblr posts where the joke or context is split across two or more posts. My goal is to prevent posts from getting separated or lost on people’s dashboards by creating a two-way link as an addition to the posts themself. To do this, I have to post both of the posts first so that Tumblr will let me copy the hyperlink that ties it to my blog, so if you see a fresh post on the blog without a hyperlink, please refrain from reblogging until they both have hyperlinks. It should only take a minute :)

I occasionally get sent post pairs as submissions through various means, so I thought I’d make a (one-parter) post about the preferred way to do that, and some ways I’d really like you not to.

How to send a post pair (preferably):

1) Direct Tag

This is the standard for a lot of gimmick/archive blogs, and pretty easy to do. Please be sure to tag me in both posts. You don’t need to differentiate between sets of posts if you tag me in multiple or label the parts yourself. I will handle do that :)

*NOTE: Tumblr seems to hate when I am tagged by the same person twice in a row and doesn’t notify me about the second post. Idk why. I’ll look into it at some point

2) Send both posts via direct message

I get that DM’s aren’t a lot of people’s forte, but sending both posts directly to the blog via DM is a really good option. There’s no need to say anything if you don’t want to, but this method does give me the opportunity to thank you directly for any and all submissions :)

Please don’t submit posts by:

1) Hyperlink via Ask/Inbox

A lot of issues tend to arise with this method that makes everything a pain to deal with. I often save/gather posts on mobile then organise and post them later when I’m ready, and hyperlinks/URLs can’t really be interacted with through asks. This means I’m forced to paste them into an external browser which becomes a whole ordeal, as tumblr on mobile is super finicky and I’m not always at my computer. It’s not that I won’t try, but if it becomes too tedious, I might just abandon it. I also don’t want to clog up the blog with asks of people submitting posts. So overall, please use one of the above options instead

[crippleswag]

1, 2, 10, 20 for the cpunk asks

1: do you use any mobility aids? if yes, show us!!

i’m too sleepy to write image descriptions rn so i’ll post pictures another day perhaps but i use my wheelchair and my rollator!

2: do you use any type of disability aid other than mobility aids? (service animals, splints, glasses, inhaler, hearing aids, nebulizer, glucose monitors etc.) if yes, show us!!

same thing as above no pictures but i use a variety of disability aids! i have wrist braces, finger splints, compression gloves, i also count all my different pain relief creams as aids since they’re something i use daily!

10: what is something you want other people to know about your physical disability/disabilities?

i think i’ve said this before for this question but i don’t think it’s talked about enough how physical disabilities and for me especially chronic pain can easily fuck up your mental health so bad. i am regularly in so much pain that i just want to kill myself and doctors will rarely treat the root of the problem (the pain) and will instead just. admit you to a psych ward or change psychiatric meds which makes no sense to me. but yeah shout out to my fellow suicidal ideation sufferers

20: do you have any physically disabled friends? if yes, how did you meet?

answered here! (can’t do a hyperlink in this post for some reason) https://www.tumblr.com/crippleswag/765793716492451840/6-whats-the-best-part-about-being-physically

To-Dos for making your blogging experience more pleasant for you (and others)

Note: these are the directions on desktop view from the dashboard. The options are available on mobile, too, I just couldn't include them without this getting ultra long and potentially convoluted.

Person Icon > Gear Icon/Settings (Account section) -> Enable two factor authentication. I know, I know, kind of a pain. But trust me. It helps. Less worrying about being hacked.

Person Icon > Gear Icon/Settings (Dashboard section) -> Enable timestamps on posts. Protect yourself from accidentally spreading outdated information.

Person Icon > Gear Icon/Settings > Go town to the Blogs section in the sidebar and do the rest of these steps for your main blog and any/all sideblog/s -> Enable Custom Theme. This makes it easier for both yourself and others to navigate your blog on desktop, plus you can make it look neat with free themes!

Person Icon > Gear Icon/Settings > Blogs -> DISable "Share Posts You Like" AND disable "Share Tumblrs You're Following". Allow yourself to keep things private. Prevent harassment from weirdos who think Liking certain posts makes you Satan himself.

Person Icon > Gear Icon/Settings > Blogs -> DISable "Allow asks with media". Spam bots will try to shove malicious porn videos in your askbox. Sometimes disabling this is not enough to stop them, but it greatly reduces the chances of it happening. I disable "Allow people to submit posts" as well; sometimes malicious links get sent through that, too.

Person Icon > Gear Icon/Settings > Blogs -> ENable "Only Allow Messages from Tumblrs You Follow". Spam bots will try to contact you directly at times, as well as actual people attempting to scam you in some way.

Warning signs that your new follower may be a bot/scam (not foolproof):

Profile pic hasn't been changed from a default one

Profile pic is a "sexy selfie", usually a large-breasted woman

Blog has zero reblogs

Blog has zero reblogs AND only a few likes (they always have their Likes visible because that's the default)

Blog has posts but they're ONLY links

Username is some combination of an actual name and numbers (john-smith897345)

Username is complete nonsense, a mash of letters that mean nothing

Blog description reads like a bare-bones quirky dating profile and it's one big hyperlink

Blog has commented on your post asking you to check out their profile, or says they're seeking a sugar baby, sometimes in that weird "corrupted text" font, presumably to get around spam filters.

Blog has sent an ask to you, asking for you to reblog their pinned post (usually under the guise of helping their sick dog).

What to do if you find a blog you're 99.9% sure is a bot:

Report them for spam. (Look for a three dots icon or a person-shaped icon to click and get a menu.) This sends them to staff to review. Staff is aware of the problem and working to solve it. By reporting blogs, you can help staff pinpoint bots to delete.

Block them. Prevent them from gaining any connection to your blog, through which more bots might find you

Clicking on the blog itself cannot do you any harm (that I know of), but it's important that you do not click any hyperlinks on the blog.

On desktop, reporting and blocking can be done in one step. On mobile, you must report and then block in separate steps.

If you're worried you'll get flagged as a bot, follow any of these simple tricks:

Change your profile pic to literally anything else aside from a default tumblr icon or a "sexy selfie". You can go into MSPaint and put googly eyes on the default icon. You can use a crop of a meme. A picture of a pet. You can search for free icons on tumblr (just be careful because while looking to make sure it's still a viable option, I got two porn bots in my face. And make sure the icon creator actually gives permission for people to use them without credit.)

Put something in your blog description that isn't a hyperlink to a sketchy website.

Reblog things. Reblog art. Reblog writing. Reblog memes. Reblog the post you got your free icon from.

Make your own posts. Use tumblr to ramble about things that interest you. Don't give out personal information, but if you recently read a book you liked or something, talk about it.

Ramble in tags. Bots don't use tags, or if they do it's chaotic at best. Ramble and put your own personal thoughts in the tags of things you reblog. (Just know that everyone can see those tags if they go into the notes of the post. So, you know, don't be an ass.)

This got incredibly long. Hopefully I explained this well enough. Most other settings are up to your personal preference, rather than having to do with privacy/safety. If anyone has anything to add, or correct me on, feel free.

Electrical Energy And Gasoline In Your Home And Business

Imagine the average household of four sharing, and utilizing at the same time, their broadband connection at house. Two folks may hook up with do their homework, one other one video-conferencing, and the fourth member watching a movie whereas keeping up on Facebook on their mobile. As service and public opinion are essential aspects when figuring switch broadband ireland out which is the best broadband provider in Ireland, we evaluate the newest buyer evaluations within the table beneath. For some reason, the larger broadband providers appear to draw the most complaints and some of the poorest scores on evaluation websites.

I am pleased with it and I am delighted to be in control of it. I am utilizing all of my vitality and enthusiasm to make sure that it's delivered. Pure Telecom offers unlimited broadband to customers throughout Ireland so that you simply can stream and download with none interruptions. They even switch broadband ireland have the latest fibre broadband which may give you speeds of 150mb to 1500mb which puts them up there as probably the greatest broadband providers in Ireland. I assume the problem right here is with the way the client phrases the request and not with the provider.

As the saying goes, a series is simply as strong as its weakest hyperlink. You also shouldn’t routinely go for the quickest velocity on offer, both. But if you’re looking to improve your Work From Home life - and even your streaming video binge - there are a couple of things to think about, and be careful for, when choosing a new service. Starlink promises to bring quick satellite Internet across Ireland. We reply questions in regards to the system, its costs and availability. Sarah Kidner has been writing about health and technology for more than 20 years.

For Elaine Cassells of Rathfarnham in Dublin, the decision to vary TV and broadband provider was an easy one. A Virgin Media customer, she noticed that the TV set-top packing containers initially supplied by the company have been developing problems so she wanted to make contact anyway. For some, switching broadband supplier can look switch broadband ireland like a problem and typically a bit daunting if you have not accomplished it before. But you would be shocked just how easy and pain-free switching may be, Mr Clarke says. A huge chunk of many family budgets goes in the course of paying for broadband, TV and residential cellphone companies.

However some may also be comparatively simple for a ‘normal’ user to hit - and, much like speeds, it’s hard to know prematurely what you’ll need on your personal usage. These connections are additionally far less prone to slowdowns during busy durations and are usually extra reliable for connection-intensive makes use of like gaming. But if excessive speeds are important, fibre is taken into account the gold normal. Speed tends to be the main differentiating issue in relation to broadband - but figuring out what speed you’ll want can be onerous to determine. As a rule of thumb, the more rural the realm the less broadband choices it is likely to have.

A Letter to WordPress

Dear WordPress,

Tumblr has been around for a good while now and many of us have been here since the beginning (or close to it). It’s become something of a comfort and a home base for many. You can understand then why it’s so terrifying and tension-setting when a new owner comes around.

This website has been through a lot of changes, very few of them good in recent years. I want to open up a dialogue from the user base about our feelings and desires surrounding this site, because to so many of us, not only its design and function, but its success and future are a big deal.

Obviously not all of the things I list below will be universal opinions, but I’ll try to outline some of the things I’ve seen the majority of users want. I’ll also throw in some things that are more personal, because I can’t claim to know everything the rest of the users want, but I can tell you where I see obvious problems.

First and foremost, here’s an obvious one. You can’t really go anywhere on Tumblr without knowing: we want the bots and the nazis gone. We need some kind of captcha system for every time someone wants to include a hyperlink in a post or response. Until the staff count gets higher, I would honestly suggest closing down the report system for everything but bots, nazis, and death threats/suicide bait.

Make NSFW content welcome again. Outside of porn bots, the pervasiveness of NSFW content is slim to none. As long as minors and those with ‘NSFW’ blacklisted aren’t seeing the NSFW content, there’s nothing wrong with it being here. A large number of the people posting NSFW content on here are artists who use this content to make a living on commissions. The ban has done nothing but make valuable members of the Tumblr community leave and take their art elsewhere. The focus should be cracking down on anyone who isn’t properly tagging NSFW content with ‘NSFW’. If the focus is put on that, the problem with NSFW content will be null.

Please keep Tumblr unintegrated with other social media. Most users will agree, the anonymity is such a huge part of what draws us to Tumblr. Other people only know what we tell them and it’s very appealing for our real life accounts (e.g. Google, Facebook, etc.) to be completely separate. When users want to share links to other accounts, they can do so easily with links on their blogs.

Replace ads with either, better, more sensible ads or members content. A large part of the ads on Tumblr make absolutely zero sense just by looking at them. Not to mention, they’re all completely unfit for the user base. I’ve seen weight-loss ads (harmful to the many people on the site recovering from eating disorders) and ads for products most people wouldn’t need or want until their forties. Most of the user base is 13-35, if I had to guess. I can tell you right now, you would make more money and the user base would be much happier if ads were removed in favor of members content. Adding a paid membership that allows users to gain access to new features (rather than restricting what’s already here) would be a huge boost in morale and company income. Use that income to improve the site. Don’t get comfortable making more than the bare minimum in profit until the website is functioning reasonably well. Hint: it’s not right now.

Keep the base functions of Tumblr. Don’t try and get radical, hoping big changes will excite the community. They won’t. We’re creatures of habit and we just want memes, fandom, and relatable nonsense. Keep reblogging, replies, customizable blogs, tags, and likes functionally the same.

Be receptive to bug reports and post change logs so that the community knows that they’re being addressed and fixed.

These are the obvious pleas of the community. Please keep in mind that the heart of Tumblr is in its users and if you ostracize us, there will be nothing left. We love this website and we want to see it thrive as much as anyone. We just don’t want to sacrifice the spirit of the community in the process.

Read more under the cut if you want to see some more of my own personal suggestions. I’d love for other users to sound off in the replies with whether they agree with any of the pleas or suggestions and also give their own!

Okay, so, here are some personal opinions that are by no means the voice of the community. I think they’re pretty sensible, but what do I know?

Change back the color. I hate this saturated navy color and I’m pretty sure a lot of others do too. I’m part of the disabled community and I know and have seen people saying that these extremely contrasted colors that were added are making their Tumblr experience worse. It gives people headaches due to light sensitivity and, frankly, it’s ugly. If you’d like to cater to those who are visually impaired/colorblind, that’s fantastic! Do so with an account setting that turns on higher contrast mode or adds patterns to things to make them distinguishable.

Add an option to blog suggestions and posts that have shown up on your dash from followed tags that says “Stop Suggesting This.” I’ve been suggested a number of blogs that I’m not interested in following. I don’t want to block the user, but I do want some different suggestions and for those blogs to stop showing up in suggestions. I’m also tired of seeing the same post twenty times from a tag I follow. There is currently an option that says “This particular posts sucks.” While I think that was a great attempt at catering to the community, I don’t want to use it because my intuition says that there’s a negative connotation. Does me saying the post sucks make it show up less for other people? Does it lose popularity? I can’t tell. The only thing I know is that I don’t want to say that a good post sucks just to make it quit showing up on my dash.

Implement some of the features that XKit uses. I would bet at least a quarter, if not more, of Tumblr users use XKit to make using Tumblr less painful. That shouldn’t be the case. Tumblr should have these functionality options available in dashboard settings.

A very hot take here that many might disagree with: Make notes viewable more like mobile has them. As it is, it’s hard to tell which ones I’ve seen on desktop. It can be tricky on mobile too, honestly, but it’s easier than on desktop. I would also heavily suggest making the unseen notifications darker so that they stand out and making a button to indicate that you’ve seen them.

Keep the dash, messages, notes, and profile as separate processes similar to how mobile has it. The trek all the way down the damn dashboard is a long one. I want to be able to see notes and messages in full size without losing my dash progress. When I switch back I want to be right where I was. I understand if this one isn’t possible or practical. It was just something I like about mobile over desktop but I’m aware that they’re two different beasts with different capabilities.

As far as the aforementioned members features, I do have some ideas, but I can’t guarantee they’re the best the user base has to offer. I’m sure others could think of better. Anyway, some things I’ve thought of are groups/clubs, digital currency, and separate dashboards. So, as it stands, You can have multiple blogs on one account. People can follow them separately. That’s fantastic. What would also be nice though, is being allowed to make separate dashboards. This would probably take up another chunk of server space, so I understand if it isn’t feasible right now, but I would jot it down. The ability to separate shitposts, aesthetic imagery, fandom content, and NSFW would be amazing. If you follow a huge number of blogs, like me, you could even make a friends dash so that you don’t miss your friends’ posts. It would just be a matter of allowing people to add and name their new dashboards. Then, when they go to follow people, it prompts them to choose what dash their content goes to. You could even simplify it by making the follow button default to the main dash, but adding a little dropdown arrow beside it. You could then choose which dash to add them to from a list. Below are some bad paint-drawn concept drawings.

Anyway, I hope this has all been helpful in some way. I’m fairly certain that WordPress will never actually read this, but it was cathartic to write and I hope it will be cathartic for someone else to read.

Sincerely, birb-ghost

Kay so im gonna start by saying that tumblr mobile is boiled and doing this kinda thing on my phone is a Pain but my moms still asleep n she hasnt taken out my laptop yet so i make do with what i got ig

Secondly, context: so a while ago ashton posted about how ppl tryna cancel brendon urie is dumb and i mean i would agree without even knowing the context bc cancel culture IS dumb gdi but anyway i shot an anon asking like "yooo wassup" n he wouldn't say much aside from "yknow the usual CC argument" blabla im paraphrasing anyway i left it at that uNTIL someone i followed reblogged this post like "if u support brendon urie gtf away from me ugh" and i was like...wot so yknow i asked "what he do" n op replied with a Link to a Thread so being the curious cat i am i went for it

Side note that if u dont know by know, twitter.com and i are Not on very good terms ahahaha thats an understatement but in any case reminder that tumblr mobile is boiled and tumblr replies do not support hyperlinks so i mf typed this entire url out on my keyboard to get to Le Thread which was also ON TWITTER a place that i Prefer to Avoid Whenever Possible anyway all this considered i was expecting some Real Tea yknow?

Instead, i got...this list of, er, "receipts" proving that brendon is, uh, Problematic(TM)

Tbh im actually starting to question the...purpose? Of cancel culture? I understand the issue with JKR because shes in a position of influence and shes actively spreading propaganda against an already marginalized population so ofc the Objective here is to get ppl to Stop Listening to Her ie Take Away the Microphone so she cant spread any more of this bs and keep hurting trans people

But thats an extreme case and while i do think ppl should stop listening to her, i think the more important thing is to Acknowledge the Issues at hand Instead of Focussing on the person behind them. Whats a bigger issue, one writer who peaked in the early 2000s and hasnt been taken seriously since at least 2017, or the genuinely pervasive social institutions of racism, transphobia, etc. Im not saying we should let jkr off the hook im just saying this is less of a "JKR IS PROBLEMATIC!!!" and more of a "JKR is in an influential position enabling her to spread toxic ideology to impressionable minds and thats not good"

After all, no one is perfect. Ik it sounds cliche but honestly if i was Up There n in the public eye where people Care then heck id be canceled 360° within a week tbh. I'm still trying but literally no one Doesnt make mistakes and Hasnt done crappy things at Some point in their life WHAT MATTERS IS THAT THEYRE NOT DOING CRAPPY THINGS RIGHT NOW AND REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT'S WRONG

like what are you fundamentally trying to prove i dont understand?? expose their past mistakes?? call them out for being flawed and Human?? MISTAKES ARE NATURAL - ITS HOW YOU REACT TO BEING CALLED OUT FOR EM THAT TRULY DEFINES YOUR SO-CALLED “PROBLEMATIC”-NESS GDI

the fatal flaw of cancel culture is to hold people to unreasonable standards n put em up on pedestals where theyre expected to be nothing short of Perfect in past and in present and that?? is toxic?? as hell??? its genuinely sickening to imagine these people with too much time on their hands digging through actual deleted posts and videos just to collect dirt on people so they can present the sum of their sins and mark them as irredeemably evil. bro im terrified of fame n i pity celebs cause they just cant catch a break can they??

if youre going out of your way to dig up dirt on celebs from Years ago (one of those links was from 2011,,,) just to expose their mistakes? people change and the thing cancel culture refuses to acknowledge is that Yes People Change!! they Can and they Do!! so why why Whyyyy are you treating them as though one distasteful joke from half a decade ago is a permanent marker of their personality. gee i sure hope they apologized for it in any case, but yall fr need to get a life

Throwing Copper Extended Chapter Notes

2 / 5 The Queen of Lower Chelsea

Hyperlinks appear in blue (underlined on mobile). The story is posted here. Direct link to this chapter is here.

“You should think about getting the hell out of Dodge,” James said boldly. “What was it you said that night, before Devon called you for dinner at the winery? You wanted to get big enough so no one could hurt you. Don’t you think you’re well past that now? Do you really need every last little light in New York City? You should go with George, to whatever island he found in the Caribbean.”

Well, let’s get right to it, I guess. This chapter is named after “The Queen of Lower Chelsea” by The Gaslight Anthem. One way or another I was going to find a way to get a reference to this because there’s mention of a queen, New Orleans, and New York in the lyrics. James’ dialogue here borrows from the line: American girls, they want the whole world, they want every last little light in New York City.

“How did we get here?” she wondered. “With you being the one trying to pull me back from the ledge and asking where my respectable convictions went?“

The opening lyrics to The Get Up Kids’ “Holiday” are questions: What became of everyone I used to know? Where did our respectable convictions go?

I am of the opinion that the album this song is from, Something to Write Home About, is perfect from beginning to end. Any time I can refer to it, I do. Sometimes I have a bunch of random dialogue in mind before I start writing a chapter and I knew right away Teresa was going to say this. I think it’s fitting. I’d like for Teresa to have self awareness and recognition of what she’s gotten away from, whether that be good or bad.

It didn’t seem like it’d been so long ago when she was voicing her distaste and disapproval for the way James lived, for the things he’d had to do, so deeply ingrained in a world of criminal activity that was new to her. Teresa remembered how hollow his voice had been when he’d said that’s the wrong answer after he’d asked her what they should do about Lopez’s guy who tried to short them on payment and she’d said, with worry, to let him go. It was only the second time she’d worked with James, and she’d been naïve then. She’d been naïve still, months later when she told James he was a good person and that’s not who you are about cartel operations that ended with casualties—though she believed she was right about those things. But as she moved up, and in her quest for expansion, she’d burned bridges and done wrong, setting aside her inconvenient convictions. Teresa always told herself it was for survival, for the good of everyone around her. But there was a seduction to vengeance, and sometimes it was without guilt that the flames licked at her face and she chose wrath.

To look back at 1x03, it can really be seen how both James and Teresa have changed over time working with each other. First of all, the way he says “that’s the wrong answer” (0:56) is...somehow really appealing. Lol. And then you look at their body language and facial expressions throughout this scene, so different from the way they are as the series progresses.

To me, it seems they go through a role reversal of sorts, over time, because James gets softer and Teresa goes scorched earth.

“When I was summoned to Bolivia by El Santo, Pote gave me that card with the psalm on it. It was important to him, symbolic, because if I had it on me, it meant I’d be protected, and I’d be back,” Teresa explained. “So give me something. Something that matters. I’ll give it back.”

James was glad Teresa had that fire in her, that determination to get through anything. He was glad, too, that she could acknowledge she might be about to walk into the belly of the beast. But the cynic that he was, James thought they had a narrow shot at playing the meeting right without everything blowing up in their faces, and he didn’t think symbolism was going to change the outcome.

“Superstition isn’t going to save your life, Teresa,” James said.

This section indirectly calls back to “Throwing Copper” by Touché Amoré, the song the story is named after. It’s the last bit of the song: But if superstitions can give someone faith, then I’m throwing my wallet and begging for change.

James’ constant observation of flickering light in Teresa’s eyes can’t be the only call back to the title, right?

One of the first things James ever said to her was I’m not religious, whoever they stole this car from is after Teresa made a snide comment about the rosary hanging from the rearview mirror, as he’d raced against time to the airport. She remembered everything about her early interactions with James. She remembered his longer hair that was a little too perfectly messy—tousled. She remembered he spoke to her coldly and never smiled, even though his eyes were warm. She remembered when he’d covered for her, something he’d decided to do of his own volition, more than once, and how it helped her understand who he really was. She remembered seeing the chain against the skin of his neck, the necklace usually tucked under his shirt. She hadn’t seen the pendant until the night when Eric’s men followed them to the cemetery to retrieve Camila’s reserve money, and Charger had to pull a bullet out of James’ shoulder after the car they were in was shot up.

One of my first ideas for this story was Teresa asking for something valuable, to be returned, to “protect” her and make sure she was going to get out of the meeting okay. So I went back to something from the first season, something that the show’s wardrobe department has probably long forgotten about or lost in a box.

James’ necklace is actually visible in the very first shot he’s in ever, in 1x02, around 6:30 of the episode. It’s not tucked into his shirt. But then, in later scenes, still in the warehouse, it...disappears. He’s still wearing it though, because you can see the chain a little bit (2:29) while he’s waiting to go through the metal detector at the airport.

It’s visible again in 1x07, when he’s all bloody and has to get the bullet removed from his shoulder (0:20), and in 1x11 when he’s talking to Camila on the phone in the trailer (0:29).

And then we never see it again! It’s just absent in every other season. I don’t know why this bothers me so much, but it does. I guess I consider the accessories that characters have to be part of the world building and continuity.

So I wrote it in, gave it a backstory, gave it purpose. Yes, this is really the kind of thing that goes through my mind. 

“Yes.” Teresa nodded. “Nothing comes cheap. Not even me.“

In this whole back and forth between Teresa and Devon, I like that it starts with him saying she doesn’t have a bargaining chip but she manages to turn it around on him. I imagine that canon Teresa would be able to do the same thing, too (after all, she makes the smart move to send Lil’ T to his mother in 3x05).

Anyway, this piece of dialogue is inspired by the bridge in “The Queen of Lower Chelsea”:

Well they say these days Nothing comes cheap And everything has a price Everyone has a price Nothing is free Not even me

In 2x01, Teresa says “everything in life has a price” when she and James are at Rolando’s memorial (a moment that’s also mentioned in the chapter) as she’d devastated about Brenda. Earlier in the chapter, regarding Oksana’s death, it’s mentioned that everything has a cost. So it’s all connected.

After a while, James closed the distance and touched her face. Teresa held her breath when he wiped under her eyes with the pad of his thumb. Then he held her jaw, his fingers at the back of her neck.

”You’re gonna be fine,” James said.

There’s this moment in 1x08, when James is talking to one of the hotel maids (0:56) for information. And she’s freaking out because the cartel is in her house. James wipes at her tears with his thumb. I find it to be a confusing moment because it’s like...is he doing it to calm her down? Is he doing it threateningly (the whole scene is pretty threatening anyway)? 

But me, I’m like, yo, when do we get to see him do that to Teresa?

She was apologizing not only for pressing on his wound but for everything, preemptively, for the tough spots she put him in and for what she’d done that he didn’t know about yet. She really did know how to do a number on him, she thought, inflicting pain like a flame that burned him to let him know they were both still alive.

The last line is a reference to Bayside’s “Duality”: you’re the flame that burns me so I know that I’m still alive.

[amysubmits]

Hi Amy! Hope you’re having a good day! I’ve noticed you keep track of the dates when you write a post. Some will say like ‘a year ago’ in the tags. I thought that was really awesome because it’s cool to see how thoughts can change/grow over time. Do you just make a note of it yourself whenever you write a post or do you just have an amazing memory? Asking because I’d love to keep track of the dates that I write things, but have no idea how to go about organizing that, haha.

Hi! 

My memory is pretty terrible! I could never remember when I posted stuff, haha. The tumblr theme I have keeps track for me. If I go look at an old post at the bottom of the original post (not a reblog) it will say ‘8 months ago’ or 2 years ago or what not. But also, I made a little directory post (https://amysubmits.tumblr.com/post/153984540912/amysubmits-posts) where I hyperlink to all of my posts in the order they were published. I like to reblog posts when they’re 7 months old, so I kinda use that list to keep a rough idea of what I reblogged last, and then will occasionally check the posts lower on the list to see if they are at the 7 month mark and if so, add them to my queue. With anecdotes and sometimes asks, I just follow the category URL that tumblr makes from the tags I use (like https://amysubmits.tumblr.com/tagged/anecdotes/). To scroll back to posts that are of the ‘age’ where I like to reblog them. So if you use tags you can use the URLS that way.

It’s all pretty easy on a PC but may be more of a pain in the hiney if on mobile. 

[bigtstreaming]

when I sent that first ask I had only seen it through mobile and just now I opened it on desktop and I kid you not I looked like a kid at a candy store I was just gasping at everything. Especially the glitters. Holy crap you’re so talented I have no clue how to do this shit lol. Umm today I’m good too!! just kinda taking a break bc I’m in pain all over but it should fade soon - Moomoo 💛

aww you’re too sweet💜💜, but @.itsfundy did all the coding work. i just plugged in the art i wanted and spent too much time trying to figure out to plug in a hyperlink

D: like a physical pain?? i hope you’re okay that sounds like it sucks a lot. feel better soon🥺💞
