stop telling people that voting doesn't matter stop it stop it

incremental change is frustrating and feels like it gets nothing done but it's how the american government works (for better or for worse) and if you get paralyzed by 'we need to revolt voting doesn't matter' that's one more effective vote for the fascists since it's one vote we lose.

I'd much rather have slow but tangible progress (or even just prevention of fascist progression) than everyone sitting around going 'let's wait for the revolution' when no revolution is likely to come while everything gets worse around us.

Obviously, still do whatever it is else to support the antifascist movement. Donate where you can (and do your research!) Go to protests if you feel safe doing so. But do all that AND vote.

✧･ﾟkarasuno sleepover✧･ﾟ headcanons

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* :･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*

↳ it was like 2 in the morning and the gc with the volleyball club was blowing up

↳ everyone was awake and it was just CHAOS

↳ so it made you wonder — wtf would a giant sleepover with us all be like

↳ so u asked just that in the gc

↳ the responses were...

tsuki: no way

yams: cmon it’d be so much fun!!

kageyama: sure

hinata: LETS DO IT

noya: FUCK IT UPPP

tanaka: YUH GET INTO IT

daichi: sounds interesting

tsuki: fine

suga: i’m down!

asahi: me too!

yachi: i’m scared

kiyoko: it’ll be fine yachi

↳ so it was scheduled for friday night at 6pm

↳ and when everyone got there WOW it was so loud there was so much going on

↳ everyone finally calmed down when pizza was ordered hksksjhs

↳ a debate about pineapple on pizza went down

↳ HUGE SUPER MARIO PARTY GAME HOLY SHIT

↳ there were 12 of you (including yourself) and max was 8 players so kiyoko, yachi, asahi, and tanaka sat out

↳ tanaka was yelling at noya and hyping him up though and so was asahi at suga

↳ hinata picked diddy, kageyama picked the goomba, tsuki picked bowser jr, yamaguchi picked shy guy, suga picked yoshi, daichi picked donkey kong HSHSJJSH, and noya picked wario obvi

↳ so. much. SCREAMING

↳ tanaka: “NOYA OHMY- dont fuck this up you need to roll 4- LETS GO BABY LETS GET A-”

↳ he rolled a 4 pure luck and him and tanaka started running around screaming “LETS GOOOOO”

↳ tsuki: “you have 0 stars”

↳ noya: “wtf i’m still gonna win-”

↳ daichi was clueless at first but then really started getting into it

↳ suga was hyping everyone up but was super determined to win

↳ kageyama had the WORST luck. he could have sworn that the game was against him

↳ hinata made fun of him HAA

↳ SUPER CLOSE GAME BETWEEN SUGA AND TSUKISHIMA

↳ tsuki won are u fr?

↳ after another round, tanaka and noya suggested spin the bottle

↳ sigh

↳ they obviously were hoping to kiss kiyoko

↳ she played ONE round. ONE

↳ landed on yachi ofc<3

↳ SO MUCH YELLING WHEN IT WAS JUST A QUICK AND SMALL PECK BETWEEN THEM

↳ yachi was so nervous it was hilarious

↳ OH AND THEN IT LANDED ON TSUKISHIMA AND YAMAGUCHI

↳ tsuki did it like it was NOTHING

↳ cue the screaming. again

↳ after a few more turns, it started getting late so asahi took some uno cards out of his bag

↳ everybody changed into their jammies and sat in a circle

↳ hinata was wearing some old tee from grammar school as his pj shirt and the first and second years FLAMED him

↳ anyways. uno game. right

↳ tell me why daichi got the worst cards every turn

↳ hinata was peeking at other people’s cards

↳ kageyama was pissed off by how many cards he kept having to pick up

↳ so. many. plus 4 cards. from suga

↳ but ohohoh he got some karma

↳ yamaguchi placed down a +4 to give to yachi (he picked it up and was s o s o r r y) then she placed another one down to give to hinata, THEN HE PLACED ANOTHER +4 AND LASTLY TANAKA ADDED 4 AND GAVE IT TO SUGA

↳ 16 fucking cards- he was scared

↳ yamaguchi won <3

↳ and then asahi whipped out another game

↳ family feud....

↳ you can already tell how bad this is gonna get

↳ team #1 consisted of: hinata, kageyama, daichi, yachi, nishinoya

↳ team #2: tsukishima, asahi, suga, kiyoko, tanaka

↳ yamaguchi wanted to be the steve harvey of the night so you helped him keep track of points

↳ in the gc, asahi texted a msg for someone to bring a button

↳ tanaka brought a “nut” one 💀

↳ you placed it in the middle of the table. boom. what could go wrong?

↳ round one began...

↳ tanaka vs daichi

↳ yams: “name something you find sand in after a day at the beach”

↳ the fucking button SLAMMED AGAINST THAT TABLE AND SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO BREAK

↳ tanaka: “MY ASS-”

↳ the GIGGLING THAT ESCAPED EVERYONE’S MOUTHS-

↳ daichi was just “:O um. my turn-or?”

↳ noya: did he get the point?

↳ kageyama: he is on the OTHER TEAM

↳ hinata: i guess but it was a good answer..

↳ i’m pretty sure you can already guess what team won

↳ a few more rounds were played and it was like midnight so you put a movie on

↳ tanaka noya and hinata sat in the front, laughing at every single thing going on

↳ kageyama: “hinata if u don’t shut ur FUCKING MOUTH”

↳ yamaguchi: “can you raise the volume?”

↳ tsukishima: “no they just need to shut the fuck up before i go over there and-”

↳ a pillow was thrown...

↳ shit went down..

↳ asahi: “come on guys let’s just watch the movie”

↳ daichi threw a pillow at him

↳ cue the surprised pikachu face @ daichi

↳ yachi was sCared

↳ so her, kiyoko, and you snuck off to the bathroom while chaos erupted between the boys

↳ kiyoko: “okay when they all fall asleep, i want to mess with them”

↳ yachi: “are you sure that they won’t kill us-?”

↳ OHOHOHO a plan was devised

↳ you three waited until the screaming died down a bit and then walked out

↳ feathers everywhere, uno cards all over the floor, and the nut button was smashed...

↳ wtf happened you left to the bathroom for like 6 minutes-

↳ “ummm...”

↳ “so...”

↳ “bed..time?”

↳ it was 1:30 in the morning and i’m sure you can already tell who was wide awake

↳ daichi, kageyama, asahi, yamaguchi, and tsukishima were trying to get ready to sleep

↳ you and the girls were trying to stay awake for your little plan

↳ hinata, noya, tanaka, and suga were just... wired

↳ yeah did suga surprise u? nope not me. that boy is chaotic at sleepovers don’t @ me

↳ they set up a smash game (while the others were sleeping) so tsuki woke back up to beat everyones ass-

↳ it started getting loud until daichi got up like - “shut✨the fuck✨up✨”

↳ so everyone quieted down HSJSHS

↳ you joined in on the game and teams were formed

↳ you and tsuki vs hinata, noya, and suga

↳ tsuki: “just pls don’t fuck this up-”

↳ you and him won😫obvi

↳ at the end when it was only tsuki and suga, he kept RUNNING AWAY FROM HIM

↳ suga was just — :p u cant catch me

↳ and when he did.. yikes..

↳ everyone eventually fell asleep

↳ except you, kiyoko, and yachi

↳ kageyama grumbles in his sleep, daichi sleeps like a serial killer, suga was just-he looked like an angel, asahi was lowkey breathing loud, noya and tanaka were SPOONING, hinata kicks in his sleep, tsuki sleeps with his headphones in?? and yamaguchi turns around every second

↳ it was time for the plan nehehehe

↳ kiyoko put makeup on kageyama, tanaka, and asahi

↳ yachi started doodling on daichi’s, noya’s, and yamaguchi’s faces

↳ you put an alarm set to go off in the morning and blast ‘deepthroat’ by cupcakke on tsuki’s phone ***yes he still had his headphones in

↳ and you all put some creepy clown doll right next to hinata’s face so that it could be the first thing he wakes up to

↳ next thing you know it’s 7AM and all you hear is “hUMPME FUCK ME-”

↳ tsuki was the first one awake and was already grumpy

↳ he thought that it was noya and tanaka’s idea to mess with him so he like shoved them awake

↳ “cupcakke? really?” and then he stopped to look at their faces

↳ yachi drew some fucked up shit on noya’s face and tanaka was wearing red lipstick with pink eyeshadow

↳ “it’s too early for this...” HE LEFT TO THE BATHROOM LMFAO

↳ oh god and then everyone woke up

↳ you and the girls were fake sleeping and listening to it all go down

↳ breakfast was.. interesting

↳ hinata was traumatized from that clown incident (he scream sounded like it came from his little sister) the boys were trying to rub off their makeup and it was smudged all over their faces, and the other boys were just ... trying to ignore the drawings on them

↳ ofc yachi drew a mustache on daichi

↳ oh and noya was trying to play the drawings off as tattoos😔

↳ you don’t even wanna know about breakfast-

↳ everyone agreed on pancakes and well...

↳ batter was everywhere and the smoke detector went off

Seventeen (Hip Hop Unit) Reaction to their S/O Getting Hurt

Wow I’m such a liar ... i was supposed to start writing this yesterday but then I got a wallpaper edit commission and completely switched gears. Sorry everyone.

Posted this the other day but tumblr shadowbanned it for some reason so i’m just going to try and repost it real quick.

Requested: Yes

Warnings: Mentions of blood

Vocal Unit ㅣ Performance Unit (Coming Soon)

S.Coups/Seungcheol:

This is one responsible guy. He is already used to looking after himself and 12 other boys so his reaction to you getting hurt would be relatively calm.

When you let out a little sound after bumping into the corner of the counter, Cheol’s attention would be entirely on you making sure you were alright. Before you even say anything he notices the blood where you are holding your arm. He’ll gently wrap his hand around your waist and take you to the bathroom so he could help you clean and dress your wound. (He might even have you sit on the counter while he helps you). Cheol would continue having casual conversation with you throughout the whole process, he figured it would help you keep calm if you a little squeamish as well as reassure you that it wasn’t a big deal without ever having to say those thing directly. Once he was done cleaning you up and putting bandages over your wounds, he would lean in an give you a quick peck on your forehead and then asking if you were okay.

Overall he would be very sweet and attentive throughout the whole situation. His calm energy would help you relax and the huge smile he gave you when you told him you were okay made the little wound completely worth it.  

“See not too bad,” he would smile at you reassuringly “So tell me what you want to do now.”

Wonwoo:

I think in a situation like this Wonwoo is another member who would remain pretty calm. However, he would definitely let his worry show through.

The two of you had been messing around at a park not far from the dorms when you tripped and scraped your knee. Wonwoo’s mood would go from goofy and playful to serious the second he saw blood forming on your leg. He would help you to your feet and make sure you were okay to walk to a nearby bench. Even if you assured him it was okay and that it didn’t hurt that much he would continue to ask you if you were okay and how you were feeling every couple of seconds. Although his actions seemed calm and collected as he knelled down to pour the water from his bottle onto your wound to clean it, his constant questions and the look on his face made it clear that he was  worried about you. Wonwoo would sit there with you until long after you had stopped bleeding just in case.

Wonwoo is very caring and would worry after you even at small things like this. Even if the scrape hurt in the moment, it was to nice to see how he was willing to take care of you like this. He definitely wouldn’t let you do anything “dangerous” for the rest of the day.

“How about we just go back to the dorm and watch a movie” he would say gently, giving you a gentle smile (the first one he had shown since you fell) “That way I don’t have to worry about you getting hurt again.”

Mingyu:

Mingyu would 100% overreact. Partly because he was actually concerned and partly because he knew it would make you laugh and take your mind off of the situation.

You had been helping Gyu in the kitchen while he cooked for your date night. He always insisted on doing most of the work and only let you do little things like stir or cut, but after you slightly catch the tip of your finger with the knife you can be sure he won’t even let you do that anymore. When you told him what had happened while holding your finger he would at first ask you if you were okay in a very concerned manner taking your hands in his. However, once you assure him it didn’t hurt to much it was just bleeding that is when the drama would come in. He would let out a over exaggerated sigh and pout at you while asking you how you could cut yourself giving you an almost offended look. You could tell by his tone and his increasing volume that it was an act. He would continue to make exaggerated gestures and noises as he helped you wash up, and once you are clean and bandaged don’t expect it to stop. His act would continue until he was completely sure that you had forgotten about the incident entirely.

Mingyu would show his concern through his little actions while helping you, but his #1 goal was to make you laugh and not worry which he would do through big goofy displays. As long as you were smiling he knew everything was okay.

“Wow,” He would say loudly, extending all of the sounds “I can’t believe you would do this to me, and on our date night too. You are unbelievable.”

Vernon/Hansol:

Your relationship with Vernon was very casual and very fun. This attitude wouldn’t change even in this situation.

You had been playing games at your apartment, and after you stubbed your toe on the way to get a snack fro the kitchen Vernon could help but laugh. It was the same thing every time either of you had any clumsy incidents, and you couldn’t blame him after you had laughed at him for 10 minutes straight when he dropped his phone directly on his foot the other day. Even though you feigned annoyance this was the norm in your relationship, and honestly, even when something did hurt, joking around with your boyfriend always made you forget about the pain. If he saw that you were actually bleeding from where you had kicked the table he wouldn’t hesitate to get up and get a bandage and some ointment for you, but even then the banter wouldn’t stop. Vernon would absolutely get you whatever you needed, but he would be laughing and joking the whole time.

It was nice to see that both of you were comfortable enough in your relationship to make jokes about each other and laugh with each other even in these situations. Vernon already showed you how much he cared through his actions, he didn’t have to constantly be asking if you were okay to express his feelings.

“I know it’s distracting having such a handsome and funny boyfriend around,” he would laugh loudly “but try to watch where you’re going.”

xiao do be like that... but i think it's good cause i get distracted too easily sometimes!! so he keeps my attention on the game hehe and my gosh kazuha is my first character for crowd control ( i mean ig jean is too but i like kazuha more oops sorry jean ;| ) and he's so good!!!

kazuha sees my simping and he's just like "nope" lol i love my anemo team it's so fun to have xiao-kazuha-jean <3 one day, i will build heizou... one day....

qiqi is so adorable i love her yes i'd like to adopt her thank you wait whatttt omg she's came home to me twice now... mona has yet to grace me with her presence... but tbh i played her on the gaa event and i... didn't really like her playstyle that much, so i'll take another qiqi if i lose another 50/50. or a diluc. i have his stupidly handsome outfit ready for him.

hubby is a good shielder and dps!!! try your luck and pull for him!!! i don't have him on my acc but i played him so much using my brother's acc where's he built as a dps- and hskdjsjdh he's so good ;w; oh is al haitham a 5-star character?? big oof, i thought he was gonna be a 4-star 😶 welp in that case he might not come home then... cause i'm prepared to spend whatever is necessary to bring zhongli home...... 🙃

also my day has been good so far!!! i hope yours has been great too <3

ty, zhongli, but we're like 12 minutes late and you're walking so slowly. (/lh) djwkkdkks ty, rin !! i don't have a genshin oc but if i ever need your help for similar things, i'll keep that in mind ;D

zhongli's voice is very calming, 100/10 would ask him to serenade me to sleep while he talks about cor lapis 🙏 aaaaa, me too !! when people talk about the things they love >>> nooooo, rin, have you seen the way i talk about those two??? i swear i word-vomit about them so much it's crazy 🏃 but ty tho! i'm terrible at holding back, hehe. just know you're always welcome to do the same about *cough* zhongli *cough*.

ayato and al-haitham need company on my manifestation list, so i'll be adding xiao and zhongli to it >:) and oooo, if you build heizou, does this mean you'll be playing a mono anemo team??? 👀 that'd be super cool, people who build mono-element teams really have my respect 😭🤝

as a heizou main, the last part is so funny because i only recently got him to lvl 80 after maining at lvl 70 ever since i got him (but he still slays hilichurls like a pro) <//3 good luck with farming, rin !! go beat that ruin serpent to a pulp and as for the onikabuto's, i mostly search through the places we visited for the cleansing ritual, tatarasuna, and the thunder sakura trees! or you can search up farming routes~

the fact that you have no mona and c1 qiqi while i have no qiqi and c1 mona... ah yes, the contrasting destinies taste absolutely delicious here fjkwkdkskf mona is a good buff support, but i can understand why her playstyle isn't everybody's cup of tea !! at least, you got to a free trial for her from the event kfkwkkds >:)

DILUC <3 i have mine benched since i'm not much of a claymore enjoyer (maybe i should try to main him with klee artifacts for one day) but i'll be manifesting him for you !! his playstyle is super cool >:) i was busy fawning over his smile until i read kaeya's letters which was a cold angsty slap to the face <//3

from what i heard, al-haitham will be a five-star !! but dw, i think his banner is going to arrive later than zhongli's, so go all out for hubby !! hmm, maybe you might even have enough to pull al-haitham if you're not tempted by other banners??? 👀

Things Blood Bowl 3 can borrow from other esports games

If you are reading this, then you found me for one of two reasons: you either know me as the ESL guy that runs major esports tournaments or you know me as a Blood Bowl 2 player with 3,500 hours under his belt.

The combination of the above may justify the arrogance to write a wish list for Blood Bowl 3 ahead of its release.  I probably know what I am talking about.

As esports titles go, Blood Bowl 2 is a fantastic product that I consider very polished and feature-rich.  Their out-of-the-box engine to run tournaments is fantastic (some people that actually run leagues might cringe, but I am looking at BB2 relative to other titles), tuning in to matches is easy and watching your own replays isn't hard either.  On top of this, you can make custom teams play against yourself which is a massively useful feature if you want to prepare for specific matches.

This does not mean that Blood Bowl cannot learn lessons from other titles that would make it an even better game with the release of BB3.

Before we go on, let's acknowledge that every game developer needs to balance the time and money spent on developing features vs. how many users it would provide value to.  In practice, if there's a killer feature idea that delays the shipment of the game by two weeks and the feature "only" helps the top 1% of players, then that feature might not get priority or it might not make it to the game.  For that reason I am focusing on features that I am guessing are trivial to add or would positively affect more than just the elite (that, and the fact that I'm not an elite BB2 player).

So, here we go:

1) Resume from replay (a StarCraft II feature) One of the best RTS games of all time has this neat feature where you can resume a game that was interrupted for a technical reason.  The game can be restarted from the point it broke which has obvious applications for running tournaments, but it also has tremendous potential for learning to play Blood Bowl.

Imagine that you can load up a replay of your own tournament game and try to resolve certain situations differently.  Massively useful for strategy as well as set plays like attacking or defending on one turn touchdowns.

I wish there was a save round button in the game which basically allows you to start a new match (against yourself, against AI or a live opponent) from a specific point.  You could practice all kinds of one turn tochdowns without wasting time on recreating the setup of the defensive team every time.  You could condense your practice to practically any other element you want.

I have had a good BB player analyse a demo with me on Discord once and it was a very valuable experience.  How much better it would have been if he could have told me "play this round out differently" instead of talking about how the round would / should go.

Storing such "start files" could then allow the community to build resources where people could find all sorts of setups and play them out rather than reading about them.

The easier it is to get players to a higher level of competency, the more players are decent players and the more enjoyable the game experience will be.  The added bonus of helping tournaments resume matches makes the feature worth adding into the game in and of itself.

2) Different clock mechanic (my own idea yay!) There is a balance to be struck between keeping the game manageable and fun to play and giving people enough time to make crucial decisions.  The Championship Ladder turn clock has been set to 2 minutes after being at 3 minutes for a while, presumably as a response to dwindling player numbers (it's a guess, not a fact).  Shorter turns are more fun for more casual players and longer turns are better for cerebral elite players.

A good balance might be if each player received an additional cache of time.  It could be done many different ways, but perhaps the most elegant one would be if there were three "+1 minute" cards (similar to rerolls) available for each player per half.  That would mean that when you really need the extra time, you can use it and the cards also become a resource to manage as well.

Alternatively, players could simply have an overtime clock that every extra second spent comes out of, but the "card system" has the advantage that you need to trigger receiving the extra time.  If you have to actively trigger additional time, you know it won't be wasted by people that go AFK.

3) Player behaviour management (League of Legends) It seems to me like the developer would prefer to release the game and then keep it up with minimal resources.  This means that ordinary players will have to deal with absolutely toxic people from time to time.  I can take the abuse, but it isn't fun.

At the same time, I have met a number of players that gave me tips during the match that helped me become better.  I wish such behaviour were more encouraged since meeting helpful players online can be a tremendous tool to help new players improve (a lot of players never ever leave the bubble of the game itself to find resources on YouTube, Twitch or BB2 websites).

I would like to see two buttons available to me after a game where I can label player as a toxic one or a helpful one.  If a player on ladder gets reported by five (random number) different people, the game should be able to react.  For example by displaying a message letting them know that they are shadowbanned from chat and no one can read their hateful shit for the next 25 (random number) games.  Of course "toxic reports" should be automatically discarded if the player hadn't typed anything since it's hard to be toxic if you hadn't typed anything.

The same mechanic could apply to helpful players and it could automatically start displaying a reputation marker next to their nickname (the more positive reports you get, the better your "positivity rank" - and it shoud decay over time).  Some other type of in-game reward could be instated as well, but I don't know what the developer's plans are for in-game currency or custom rewards.

I know of some players that would confuse the hell out of the above system, otherwise known as helpful ragers, but maybe it would be a good start.  And the best thing: it's automated with no manpower required.

4) Observer features (DOTA 2, Chess)

Give us basic telestration tools in the game.  The ability to draw arrows, move players (as shadows) etc. to illustrate what the player should do, where the player should be moved, etc.  It is not uncommon for a turn of Blood Bowl to last two minutes before a player is moved or a die is rolled.  Commentators being able to mark things in the game they are watching and displaying them for their audience would make broadcasts much more compelling.

I cannot stress enough that there's time for it in most big tournament matches.  It would be massively helpful with "newb streams" as well (something I've recommended for the REBBL team to organise for their playoffs) since that can bring players into the community as well.

5) Promotion of esports (League of Legends & others) The first major title to really do this well was League of Legends.  Whenever a big event was going on, they would put a link to the stream into the game client.  I cannot stress how much this has popularised LoL as a professional esport and given its community the idea that they're casual players of not a game but a SPORT.  Even if they did not watch the esports tournaments, they were given a sense that there was so much more depth to that world.

This is another feature which might require post-release management from the developer (which automatically makes it not-so-desirable), but creating some kind of in-game billboard and working with whitelisted popular leagues to fill it in for the publisher under strict guidelines is probably doable.  I am aware of the news section on the loading screen, but without an image and headline to attract my attention, I ignore it 90% of the time.

The community does tremendous work for the publisher, creating rich, vibrant places to learn, play and enjoy Blood Bowl.  The least they could do is allow the trusted ones to promote themselves inside the game.  It's for the mutual benefit of the publisher and the community leagues.

Welp... This is more writing than I've done in 5 years.  And all it took was for me to win the first round of the REBBL Challenger Cup.  I hope you've enjoyed this read and that you have suggestions of your own that could help Blood Bowl 3 become a fantastic game.
