while I always appreciate seeing non binary characters in games, it's always so funny to me when other characters in universe just, magically know their pronouns, when they really shouldn't lol

they introduced a nb character in xenoblade 3, and everyone is immediately refering to them by singular they/them pronouns, when they never really did the same for other characters unless referring to a person clad in armor (which said character isn't, you can easily see what they look like) or in a similar situation where they can't reasonably assume their gender/pronouns

I guess it's better than said character being misgendered in an annoying way, but the fact that so many fictional characters have a functional non binary radar is still something I'm endlessly amused by

Choji’s Team:

Cinderace (Partner Pokemon)

Monferno

Torracat

Castform (Sunny Day Form)

Litleo

Charcadet

Yes, Choji has three starter pokemon evolutions on his team. I couldn’t help myself and neither could he, apparently. Choji’s definitely been abroad a fair few times, both before and after becoming his town’s gym leader, and it’s like he’s got a sixth sense for finding the pokemon in each region that are going to give him the biggest challenge. The rarest and most difficult to catch have all been starter pokemon so far (and Castform, which he may or may not have stolen/liberated from a weather research facility in Hoenn). Cinderace is his ace (ha) pokemon, and it’s… totally because he’s got the kanji for rabbit in his name (correct me if I’m wrong but that’s why everyone uses the rabbit emoji for him, right?). Also fire types just felt fitting for Choji. Bright and burning like the sun, just like him! Hence why Castform is perpetually in its Sunny Day form. Monferno matches his acrobatics in a fight and Torracat is for Shishitoren!

As for Litleo… gonna be totally honest here, I briefly forgot Torracat existed and thought this was the closest I was going to get to a tiger. And then I did find Torracat, and I thought about dropping Litleo from the line-up. The eyes, though. Litleo’s damn eyes reminded me too much of Choji, so I kept it. Also it’s cute and I can very vividly imagine Choji play-wrestling with it. And probably playing soccer/football with Cinderace. Choji would dominate in a lot of sports but I’m partial to soccer, so. Might as well tack that headcanon on.

(Also, hey. If my very tired brain is misfiring at the moment and shishitoren’s animal is a lion, not a tiger? I did Litleo on purpose)

Last but not least, Charcadet. I said this in another post but I literally have no idea what goes on in Scarlet and Violet. I don’t know if this is a rare pokemon, or one Choji could feasibly have without completing some plot-relevant quest. But we’re throwing logic out the window for this one because I took one look at Charcadet and said, yeah, that’s Choji’s. No need to look for a backup sixth pokemon, that’s him all over. Tiny fire child warrior!! No regrets.

how do i tell my roommate that her cat repeatedly pissing on and destroying my things is something that people usually offer to clean or replace or apologize for instead of shrugging off

hiii please feel free to ignore this, but exactly how popular is afd party among german public? social media is giving a very skewed impression of the size of their voter base.. or maybe i am just in denial and hoping that it is not so popular 😅 i was surprised to see even a few people in their 20s praising their policies online

before the vote today they predicted the afd at 20%...... they're massively popular, second most voted party (at least in the predictions). theyre more popular in eastern germany (where im from too) but they gained popularity throughout all ages and regions. i don't think your perception is skewed at all, even young people (especially in the east i would say) are falling for the propaganda. i think tiktok had a huge influence on that bc the afd was such a big presence on there and other parties couldn't keep up with it fast enough which led to many young being going down the afd rabbit hole. i also think due to covid and the loneliness rates going up rapidly and young people being affected by it the most that also sent people down the conspiracy pipeline and made them more vulnerable for the alt right way of thinking (there was a study on this I did a paper on it's actually kinda scary). our own political bubble really warps our perception of how things actually are and that's the case for me too!

the first real experience I've had of being fascinated by technological developments in adulthood is getting on a bus that has charging ports in the seats and a screen displaying the route with an announcer.

i loathe discord for many reasons but one among them is the fact its impossible to have a conversation on so many servers because of how their channel rules work. if you want to share an image make sure you post it to the #media channel, BUT make sure that doesn't spark a conversation in the same channel! you must move to another channel for that. no #general isnt the right one thats for general chat (whatever that means if not this) have you maybe tried #off-topic or #memes? oh but some other people are talking about something in there already and you would be randomly shoving an unrelated message in between them and make it even harder to track what anyone is talking about or it just gets lost in the flood of messages? wait why aren't you posting at all what do you mean this is too much effort it's just a way to keep things more organised—

I changed colleges to study visual arts. dropped sociology after five years and being close to graduating, and yes it's as painful and humiliating as it sounds. but at this point if it swims like a duck (an artist) and quacks like a duck (an artist) the only thing left to do is to surrender to obvious destiny
