GUYS GUYS GUYS PLEASE HEAR ME OUT ON THIS

Yellow and purple are opposites on the colour wheel, and what else is purple and yellow? The colour of Newton's filaments.

If we're following the theory that Newton is being influenced by the Titans or merely under their control and not full on possessed, then this could imply a lot.

One thing that immediately came to mind (for me at least) is how the Titans could've been merely taking all of Newton's bottled up hatred and lack of self worth and multiplying that by like a hundred. (think of Mr L from spm and you'll understand what I'm implying here)

While Newton when we first meet him and towards the end of the game (when his filaments are yellow) is what he wishes others to perceive him as, meanwhile when his filaments are purple (so while he's under the control/influence of the Titans) he's showing his true emotions towards those who've most likely hurt him in the past

Another thing I've noticed is what the colours themselves imply.

While yes, yellow is mostly associated with joy and happiness, but it's also commonly seen symbolising cowardice, illness, betrayal, egotism and anxiety.

Which perfectly sums up Newton in the beginning of the game, already showing us what kind of character we're dealing with.

He seems like a joyful and outgoing character, costly showing himself off in the best way he can. But the more you interact with him, the more dialogue you receive from him, the more you start to realise there's more depth to this otherwise 'silly and goofy' character

Newton's whole thing is that he wants praise, he wants affection. He desires it more than anything, which just further feeds into the idea that he's self conscious and struggling from extreme anxiety. Believing that he'll never be good enough, leading him to go to extreme lengths to get people to finally notice him.

Meanwhile, purple is a colour commonly associated with royalty and power, showing Newton's newfound abilities now that Titans are controlling him and basically manipulating into committing mass destruction across his planet.

But what else is purple associated with? Decadence, self-indulgence, conceit, pomposity and pride.

Purple is also sometimes seen as a color of mourning. Which is implying the old Newton, the one the player met at the start of the game, is dead. He's not the same character, not anymore and not right now. He's a twisted corrupted version of himself, letting his hatred and want to prove himself as worthy of attention and love get the better of him.

It's those emotions that allowed him to be manipulated into freeing the Titans, and why he never fought back against their control over him until much later into the game where he finally had enough and snapped.

Going back to my original statement about the two colours, purple and yellow, being opposites on the colour wheel.

These are called complimentary colours. They're exactly opposite eachother and sometimes referred to as 'harmonious colours' and contrast extremely well.

This implies that these two sides Newton has to himself, they CAN co-exist.

One of my friends even pointed out that when mixing light, overlapping purple(or magenta) and yellow gives you white. (Do some research about the additive colour mixing theory if you don't believe me this is true)

And what does white symbolise? Most commonly, purity and peace. Further proving that the two vastly different and seemingly contradicting personalities Newton showed in the game are able to exist alongside one another.

There's nothing wrong with experiencing emotions of jealousy and spite and neither is it wrong to display yourself as overly positive and confident in yourself to others, but the important thing is to not let these feelings and emotions dictate your life.

The Titans merely helped bring the negative bottled up emotions to the surface. They didn't create a whole new snarky personality for Newton while controlling him like a puppet on a string. It was there the whole time.

It was what Newton always wished to have done, to finally let everyone who ever wronged him experience EXACTLY what he did.

think I figured out why I've been in a full trauma trigger state for the last week+ and iiiiiiit is embarrassing

it's because I went on a nice date that I enjoyed

and in the background without even TALKING TO ME ABOUT IT my brain decided to start freaking the fuck out about the inevitability of abuse and the essential harm I do by existing in the world. but like. in the background. to the degree that I have at most been vaguely aware that that's even a thought process I was having let alone that it was what was distressing me.

but I have laid out some timelines of when I entered 24/7-panic-attack mode and it lines up precisely to going home after a nice date. for fuck's sake.

trauma is stupid and emotions are dumb. and if trauma shit is going to fuck up my whole week my brain could at least have the good grace to tell me what I'm upset about.

I do not like my mom's boyfriend and I don't think I ever will, but he is absolutely real as hell for not being able to do anything without having music on.

[lycankeyy]

I like how my brain has just accepted "I can't be mean to Boyf right now my friend has him on the weekends" as like a fact of reality. Literally none of these words mean anything he is a fictional character. And yet I cannot be mean to Boyf my friend has him on the weekends

Listen up fake fan. I have logged over 600+ hours in Splatoon 3 and I have played every splatfest. I have called out of work to participate. I have scanned this game for every bit of lore and storyline that you could possibly imagine and I know without a doubt that Shiver is absolutely evil. STOP DEFENDING HER FANS. Frye deserves this win. Shiver is literally opressing all the others in an effort to dominate them like some Feudal Lord. She is supposed to be whiteness incarnate and is a foil for white supremacy. The proof of this is that she paler than any other character by far. Also if you look at their placement, she is on the FAR RIGHT. Her eyes are Red just like swastikas. Her singing/barking noises is like the Rebel Yell from the Confederacy. She is meant to embody racism, Especially with how she is always negging on Frye and Big Man, the two characters CLEARLY meant to be POC. All Shiver fans know about this type of subliminal messaging and because of that they clearly hate Frye and Bug Man. The goal of this splatfest was to subjugate the minorities. They deserve this hate!!! You are enabling them and therefore YOU are being racist. Open your eyes!

SHE IS LITERALLY JAPANESE-CODED?!?!???!?

So I'm taking melatonin to try to sleep due to insomnia and just how sluggish I'm getting I feel like (since a lot of the fantasies I see on here are being drugged then hypnotized) getting given melatonin then being hypnotized is a quick trip to trance-town

This winter (the season not the me) has been unseasonably and terrifyingly warm, like it's 10 degrees (Celsius sorry Americans) out today and I'm reminded of an article I read in the news a couple years ago about how Canada was baking at twice the rate as the rest of the world and go 👁️👄👁️. In my youth snow where I live would be probably a foot high in the lowest snow areas of snow drifts and up to my waist (in adult height) in the high parts, and every year I see less and less snow ☠️☠️☠️

On one hand despite my namesake I actually loathe the season winter, I'm extremely sensitive to the cold and getting brain freeze because the wind is blowing against the direction you're walking in sucks booty hole. But like NO snow is extremely bad. VERY bad. Do not like living out the consequences of climate change because uh. Canada just does not seem to have winters like it used to and hasn't in years. It's like watching all the corn crops stop growing like they used to because the summers are so much dryer and hotter with the exception of last summer, which was almost wet enough to kill the corn with that. But they survived and grew bushy like they used to and it was kind of terrifying to acknowledge I hadn't seen a crop that good in years.

i’m STRESSED

i’m in yellowstone rn with my family, and it’s great, but there’s no service, i’m lucky to even know what’s happening right now, AND it’s a different time zone.

on friday, we will be on day two of driving back home, which is good cause there’s a better chance of getting enough service to be able to buy tickets, but i don’t know what time zone im going to be in, if im in PST, which is where i live, or if ill still be in MST, which is an hour ahead, and i want the silver vip tickets and i dont know if they’ll be sold out by the time im able to get them!!

i want the silver tickets cause i’d love to see the pre-show question thing, but also and more importantly, i’ve been to the shnitz auditorium, and im partially blind, so if im not in the front id be scared i wont be able to see anything

i’m low key scared i won’t be able to see enough in the front, but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it!!
