You ever just have existential feelings over childhood characters? Had a dream about the Care Bears where some natural disaster was happening in the world and the Bears in Care Bear world reflected on if life ceased to exist on Earth then the Bears would disappear as well or even have to flee for their lives to find some other life forms to sustain them which has never made me more afraid for fictional stuffed animals in my life

and then five minutes later Matt Mercer was accused of Care Bear murder by the villain from Jupiter Ascending while sitting next to Jester

Since I’m sad that otome games don’t have English dubs when they get realeased in the west, I’ve decided to do English fan casts to alleviate the pain. (I get that they’re a niche genre, but let me have this)

Code Realize, Hakuoki, and Amnesia will have the same voice actors from their English dubs. One of the exception is Toma, since his voice actor is unfortunately dead. I would replace Toma’s voice actor with Mike Haimoto. Another exception is Sanosuke Harada’s voice actor since he’s been blacklisted and arrested due to grooming a 16 year old and marrying her in 2014. He’s already been replaced by Phil Hayes in the Hakuoki movies, so he’ll stay.

I’m not doing Collar X Malice at the moment since it’s getting a movie adaptation this year, and (hopefully) it will inevitably get an English dub. If it doesn’t, then I’ll do it on the future. 

The heroines are all voiced in English as well because I say so lol.

I’ve been wanting to name my car forever but I haven’t been able to find the right name. I’ve tried a few names but none of them stuck or felt natural, until today my mind’s latest Reality-Shifting Scenario Generator considered that I’d be picking up a friend later and spat out “what if everyone’s cars turned into horses and you went to pick up your friend with your horse. What would you call that horse” which apparently fucking worked so anyways my car’s name is now Jupiter

I love old pictures of animals so much. Like when it’s a black and white and faded picture of some people I’m like yeah, those are really old people from a really old era! But suddenly you bring one of those same kinds of photos of a cat and Holy Shit that’s a bona fide friend. I want to pet it now. Transcends time

I took a walk through a cemetery the other day, and had some profound realizations on how the way we create headstones is a love story to ourselves and those around us.

The other day, I had an extra hour before work, and I’d been itching to get anywhere outside. I live by a few cemeteries, and the Union Cemetery I hadn’t visited yet. It’s a big cemetery that has several roads running through it, so I parked at the front and made my way walking to the back.

I’m walking through the road and looking at all of these graves that have World War I veterans (and presumably people from the civil war era), and it strikes me that cemeteries mainly serve a non-practical purpose. At least in our modern mostly-Christian society, in our treatment of life after death, we largely don’t actually believe that any of the afterlife is attached to the body – the soul or spirit or whatever goes off to somewhere else. Despite this, we still take the time and care to set aside a bit of land where we’re going to keep this person’s old body and mark the fact that they’re there. Why, and who is this for? It doesn’t seem like it could be for them because they’re gone, but it a sense, it still is for them, and at the same time it’s also for us. For them, it’s keeping their memory going, or monumentalizing the fact that they were here, or maybe just making sure that their death doesn’t go unnoticed – it’s making the fact that they’re gone official by leaving a mark in their stead. For us, it’s because we need all of this to be able to resolve the grief surrounding their death. We receive solace from turning grief into the reassurance that their impact lives on in some way, or if anything else, making a spot for us to imagine a constant connection back to them. In other words, we’ve created sacred representations of those that we once loved to fill their absence from our lives.

But as I continued walking through the cemetery and especially when I came upon more modern graves, I started to realize there was even more to it. I noticed so many more combined headstones that marked that members of a family were buried right next to each other. Headstones started to have small symbols or decorations on them that characterized them, made them unique either from important parts of the buried’s lives or just fun designs that they or someone decided should be on the headstone. Even further on, there were pictures of people etched onto the stone, religious iconography, quotes and tributes, and even places marked where a member of the family who hadn’t died yet would eventually be buried. This commemoration and representation of someone’s life started to evolve – we’d taken its function as a way to remember the life of whomever was buried and started to personalize it to infuse even more life and meaning into it. These were things that the deceased had planned too! These were designs where before dying, the people had decided they wanted traces of what made their lives meaningful to be displayed for all those to come after them. They were thinking of everyone who wanted to come by their grave to show their love and said, “this is what I want you to remember me by.” It’s a tribute to themselves and establishing their own memory, but it’s also a thoughtful gesture that shows how prevalent the idea is that people will see your grave after you die, which is such a powerful concept for someone to comprehend. And yet we do it! For the sake of ourselves and for the sake of those that we love, we turn death into a final state of living, and decide what we want our last mark on the world to be, because we’ve decided that’s important to ourselves and to those around us. And I think that’s beautiful – I think it’s a love story to our lives and the lives of those around us.

Seeing Double: Chapter 1

Awakening

<-- Previous | Next -->

They say you are your own worst enemy. You look in the mirror and see yourself from your own perspective. What do you think? Do you have high hopes for yourself or are your expectations really low? Do you hate yourself with a passion or is your self-esteem as high as the skies above? You you bash yourself for everything you do? Do you say truths to yourself or do you say lies?

Now imagine the saying put into literal terms. A copy of you. Might be exact, might not be. But they are still you. Is this copy really your worst enemy? Or are they your very best friend?

In this situation...

The former is prominent.

NYZ: Red Zone

Gentek Building

Blaring sirens pierced the nightly air, as they always do in the Red Zone; in one place or another. A group of infected had started amassing behind the adjacent blocks and in the nearby streets, just out of sight. Not long after the infected horde began roiling over the Blackwatch defences on the perimeter, James Heller joined in. Now a lone scientist named Evan was cursing under his breath in the deeper floors of the Gentek building. The place was akin to the Parisian catacombs, in the way that it too featured an abundance of bones, with the odd organ or skin sample from infected; unfortunate individuals who were chosen to be test subjects for horrible experiments.

Shaky hands produced a set of keys from a lab-coat pocket, fumbling to get the one fitting the lock. Something was incarcerated in the room, which could only be described as a monster, an “It”. A copy of it was already loose in New York, it would certainly mean the end of the world if the other was also set free from its icy prison. This was increasingly becoming a possibility, especially once the radio of the scientist’s escort crackled.

“All units, this is Fortress 1! The main facility’s gate has been breached. Converge on the gate and engage incoming hostiles. Do not let them in!”

The scientist froze. The main gate had been breached? How?

“Get your ass moving, egghead!”, shouted the soldier from across the gloomy hallway.

Even more panicked than before, he finally managed to insert the key into the lock. With a turn, the mechanism sprang into motion, and a heavy blast door began sliding shut before the room’s prize. But just before it shut completely, the room went dark with a loud clang. The power had gone out.

“Oh no. Oh shit...”

With the equipment and ventilation whirring to a stop, Evan became painfully aware of the heavy footfalls of a small army of juggernauts stomping away on the ground level.

The soldier’s dying screams shook the scientist out of his transfixed state, sending him scooting to the wall. The sound of a wet crunch reverberated through the otherwise still corridor. Hesitant, Evan peeked around the corner to see what had become of his escort. He gasped at the sight of the dismembered soldier and the form of a monster. A large brawler was helping itself to the soldier’s gory remains. Unbeknownst to the scientist, his keys had slipped out of his pocket. The sound of jangling keys was enough to attract the beast’s attention. It was hungry for more.

Evan shuffled into a corner, hoping desperately that if he didn’t move it would pass him. The massive, horned head of a ravenous brawler burst through the doorway, snorting angrily. It sniffed once more before finding its prey.

Once the brawler was finished with its latest meal, it gave the wide room another look. A big door with a small but workable gap was the most prominent object for the brawler’s curiosity. Surely for prying open, perhaps there was more food behind? It approached, gave the door a good sniff and noticed that the air was slightly colder inside. With a satisfied snort, it began clawing at the gap, putting its hulking muscles to use. The door was strong, but against the power outage cutting short the closing process and the might of a gigantic brawler, it stood little chance. The brawler gave a triumphant roar once the blast door gave in. At the very end of the freezing vault was what the brawler considered its next meal. In a large metal tube connected to an even larger tank by various tubes dripping with thawing ice, lay something that looked like a man, though his features were obscured by the condensation on the glass. The brawler clamped down on the pod with its powerful jaws, tearing the hatch off its hinges. The next moment a clawed hand shredded through its throat, and the brawler’s life was cut short.

Zeus Containment Chamber

The hunter’s carcass slumped against the cryogenic storage tube, gargling with blood. Grasping feebly at the tube’s opening, Alex Mercer pulled himself out of his prison and collapsed on the linoleum floor. His hand, which he’d barely managed to shift into a usable weapon, retracted its claws, returning to its normal appearance. Now that the oversized hunter had ceased to live, the only thing audible were his heavy, shuddering breaths. Dazed, Alex shook his head to clear the fogginess. The worst thing wasn’t the stinging frostbite and still lingering numbness, but the disorientation. Where was he? And how long had he been in here? A pit formed in his stomach when he realized; what about Dana?

He gave the hunter another look, which is when he realized that the beast was no ordinary hunter. It was much more muscular, and its rugged facial features didn’t match the typical hunter either. At least you could tell that they were once humans. This thing looked like some mishap between an alligator and a pitbull.

What had happened after Blackwatch captured him?

Something was very wrong… Alex decided he had to investigate, getting to his feet and staggering towards the exit ahead.

He trudged through the hallway, coming across two mutilated bodies; a scientist and a soldier he assumed was Blackwatch, but wasn’t sure. The gear didn’t look like it used to.

He broke into what could have be taken for a run, hadn’t he been frozen. At least his body was loosening up already. After rounding some corners, he came across an elevator— his way outside.

After clambering half-way up the elevator shaft, he noticed the screeching of infected close-by. Great, at least there was food.

Once he reached the door for ground level, he launched himself off the shaft’s wall, crashing through.

“Oh fuck...”

What he found on the other side was a snapshot from Hell. Alex recognized the place now. He was at the Gentek HQ. However, the last time he was in the building’s foyer, the place wasn’t littered with corpses from soldiers and infected alike. An intense feeling of desperation rushed through him. What caused this? He had rendered the infected headless by killing Greene and her horrid pet. They should all be dead! Being limbered up again, Alex sprinted out the severely damaged front gate and into the night.

Outside

If the foyer had been a snapshot from Hell, then outside was the place itself. Fleshy, bloodred-glowing tendrils the size of multiple trucks, wound through streets and up the shattered glass and steel skeletons of skyscrapers, reaching into the night. Grotesquely-shaped shadows danced on every surface with the tendrils’ pulsing bioluminescence. The sight made Alex even more unsettled than he already was. He looked around in disbelief, half-expecting this to be nothing but a nightmare that would soon end. A Dream of Armageddon like it was back then in Times Square. But when he blinked, he did not wake up. He was already awake, and this awful world was real.

Some of the soldiers —including some blue-glowing D-Codes— were still alive and holding the perimeter against the stragglers, but Alex pointedly avoided them, staying shrouded in the limited light. He was mostly thawed, but didn’t want to test their strength just yet, considering his difficulty shaping just one hand into a claw.

Once out of eye shot, Alex dashed up the sheer face of a slightly leaning skyscraper. The putrid smell of the infected city hit him like a tank shell on his way up. He covered his mouth and nose with his right hand.

From the roof he could see across the burning expanse that had once been Manhattan, a city of some few million inhabitants. Now most of said inhabitants were either dead or reduced to screaming horrors that wandered the streets in search for a meal. Despite the terrifying view and its even worse implications, Alex’s mind kept going back to his sister, Dana. Technically he wasn’t her brother, but a viral copy of the late Alexander Mercer. Nonetheless, he considered Dana family. He had to find her. And maybe also figure out how long he had been put under. So he headed to the last place he’d seen her.

Hear me out... Juke writing drops of Jupiter by Train

Imagine Luke and Julie writing it about their parents, Luke’s tragically short life and the situation they’re in with the feelings they have for each other

“Now that she's back in the atmosphere With drops of Jupiter in her hair, hey, hey, hey She acts like summer and walks like rain Reminds me that there's a time to change, hey, hey, hey Since the return from her stay on the moon She listens like spring and she talks like June.”

I was wondering why Matt was willing to get out a battle map with only fifteen minutes left.

[rythyme]

we talk a lot about the chaotic energies of various DMs in the big 5 D&D podcasts but no one will ever ever beat disaster bisexual anthony burch. 

his twitter is 50% politics, 20% memes, and 30% thirst tweets. two days ago, per his followers’ request, he spammed twitter with almost fifty images of his fictional crushes, including but not limited to:

OG Carmen Sandiego

Janet from The Good Place

Robin Hood (the fox version)

John Slattery in Mad Men

the blue alien lady from Mass Effect

Sailor Jupiter

The 10th Doctor

Lupin III

Mei from Overwatch

and the entire cast of The Mummy

like... would any of the mcelroys ever dare to do this? would brian murphy? would matt mercer ever thirst tweet about an overwatch character? the answer is no. absolutely not. but anthony burch did because he is a messy bi man who made his players play fortnite in the forgotten realms. never forget.

The Lawndale File - Facebook Edition

The Lawndale File - Facebook Edition

Daria Morgendorffer Agents? At Lawndale High?

Jane Lane Who are these 'different ones'?

  Sick Sad World From outer space to in your face! Aliens walk among us! A Sick Sad World Exclusive now on!

  Daria Morgendorffer Why are we talking about aliens again?

  Daria Morgendorffer I'm still wondering what the hell Trent was playing

Jane Lane Same here

  Helen Morgendorffer --> Daria Morgendorffer

Is something wrong with Quinn?

Daria Morgendorffer If this weren't a school day, I might have the time to begin answering that.

  Helen Morgendorffer --> Quinn Morgendorffer

Is something wrong with Daria?

Quinn Morgendorffer If this weren't a school day, I might have time to say something about that...

  Helen Morgendorffer What are they teaching about immigration at Lawndale High?

  Daria Morgendorffer Why is Quinn covering her neck?

  Brittany Taylor --> Daria Morgendorffer

Whatever you may have heard about 'implants' it's not true!

Jane Lane oops?

  Timothy O'Neill became a fan of The X-Files

Janet Barch likes this

Janet Barch Go Scully!

  Timothy O'Neill All this creepy Science Fiction is just a throw back to the old Cold War Paranoia

Daria Morgendorffer Aliens in the sky, Communists under the bed

Timothy O'Neill Exactly. And accusations flying, all because of Atomic jitters. You're a Communist. You're an alien

  Daria Morgendorffer --> Jane Lane Trade you Cuba for Jupiter

Timothy O'Neill One stood for the other in those old movies

  Sandi Griffin --> Quinn Morgendorffer If you refuse to explain your strange outfit, I'm afraid the Fashion Club will have to consider sanctions.

Quinn Morgendorffer I will explain later. It's not an antifashion statement.

Sandi Griffin Very well, But we only have your word to go on.

  Joseph Green --> Quinn Morgendorffer Mr. O'Neill says that girl from your house is an atomic Communist.

Jefferson Brown-Mercer And her friend's an alien

Tiffany Blum-Deckler Gross!

  Tiffany Blum-Deckler --> Stacy Rowe But... if Quinn's cousin is an atomic communist from Mars, shouldn't she have a more interesting outfit?

Stacy Rowe Stop it, Tiffany. You're scaring me!

Tiffany Blum-Deckler Sorry

  Daria Morgendorffer Mr. DeMartino Arrested?!

Jane Lane The worst is over now?

  Stacy Rowe --> Quinn Morgendorffer I am so glad you're still one of us.

Quinn Morgendorffer OMG Stacy! What did you think?

Daria Morgendorffer ????

  Jane Lane --> Daria Morgendorffer Come on! Not even Aliens would give the planet to the Fashion Club. You're getting paranoid.

Daria Morgendorffer I'm not talking about aliens. But there's something out there. Something stupid.

Jane Lane Um, could you come over. Trent's music is getting more... cheerful.

  Jake Morgendorffer Where is Daria going???

  Helen Morgendorffer DeMartino led off in handcuffs? Oh my!

  Kevin Thompson, Brittany Taylor, Charles Ruttheimer III, Jodie Landon, Michael J. Mackenzie and Timothy O'Neill joined the Event Perfectly Ordinary Meeting in the Woods at the End of Howard Drive

Jodie Landon What are we doing here anyway?

Michael J. Mackenzie Kevin, I need to stop you from doing something stupid that would give the team a bad name.

Michael J. Mackenzie --> Timothy O'Neill ??? You're hunting Communists too?

Timothy O'Neill I wouldn't call it hunting. I heard a rumor about educators going to the gulag. But me. No!

  Jane Lane Whoa!

Daria Morgendorffer Come on! Those lights were merely the result of stupid stalkers carrying flashlights.

  Jodie Landon Why are we sneaking around Lawndale's outskirts anyway?

Timothy O'Neill You're right. We've been all been acting very foolish.

Kevin Thompson Hey, man. Speak for yourself!

Timothy O'Neill Oh! Sorry Kevin. But perhaps a rally is in order. You know something before classes to promote understanding, remove the fear and increase the peace.

  Jane Lane Was Trent beckoning to the UFO?

Daria Morgendorffer Remember that it went away.

Trent Lane I'm not playing any differently than the usual way I play.

  Pizza Prince (Lawndale) --> Arthur Anderson You're Fired!

Arthur Anderson Oh Man!

  Timothy O'Neill posted the Event Anti-Communist Rally at Lawndale High.

  Anthony DeMartino I finally convinced those glorified dogcatchers from Immigration that I am not an illegal alien. But now I have a question. Who told them I was?

  Janet Barch Oops?

  Daria Morgendorffer and Jane Lane joined the Event Anti-Communist Rally at Lawndale High.

Daria Morgendorffer Everyone's acting weird.

  Sandi Griffin Dressed for Fashion Club solidarity

<-Picture->

  Stacy Rowe -> Quinn Morgendorffer

I'm _so_ sorry!

  Angela Li -> Timothy O'Neill

You may have wanted to clear up misunderstandings, but it was still a breach of discipline!

  Jane Lane -> Daria Morgendorffer

So, you finally convinced your dad that you're not a communist?

Daria Morgendorffer Yeah, I'm showing him how much I love money by hitting him up for it every chance I get.

  Jane Lane -> Daria Morgendorffer

Hey, it's Trent's Hell Music.

Happy Herb's Cars I'm Happy Herb, and I sell cars, so come on down.

<-Video->

Trent Lane So now you know

Daria Morgendorffer Nice jingle

Trent Lane You don't have to tell me. I'm a complete sell-out. But I really needed the gig.

Trent Lane I got 40 bucks, an hour of studio time and new tyres.

  Sick Sad World On the next Sick Sad World: Alien love goddesses are depriving Americans of their skins and their jobs.

<-Picture->

Trent Lane Hey, Cool

Daria Morgendorffer We should be upset about this.

Jane Lane I don't know. Those outfits look pretty good.
