I pointed this out to my friends but to those of y’all on the internet who care - Copia in the end credit scene is wearing the same fucking suit that Neil Newbon wore. I’ll hide the pictures bc spoiler but oh my god.

It’s the same suit just styled differently. I love both of these middle aged men.

[chaotic-deity]

Saw this trend on twt and thought it'd be fun to give it a try lol

[mister-girl]

I love the fact that Neil Newbon and Copia wore the exact same Alexander McQueen jacket

[hiraethy]

Jared Harris and Tobias Menzies as Aziraphale and Crowley from Good Omens. is this anything 🍸

[tacosaysroar]

I almost didn’t catch this one @busylivinnow!

Again, I could put SO many things on this list, but I’m going to limit myself to books that made a big impression or that I’ve continued to think about over the years.

1) Great Expectations, Charles Dickens. I’ve read it at least four times and I’ve seen most of the movie adaptations (which never measure up). There’s just something about Pip, so desperate to be loved and accepted and going about it in exactly the wrong way. (Also, come on. Miss Havisham and her super toxic influence on Estella is so compelling.)

2) The Long Walk, Stephen King (originally under Richard Bachman). This one I’ve read at least a dozen times. At least. It’s very reminiscent of Shirley Jackson’s “The Lottery,” but we get a much longer, much slower descent into the consequences of that sort of system. It’s so beautifully and horribly accomplished. I don’t think I’ve ever managed to read it without crying.

3) The Things They Carried, Tim O’Brien. This is a collection of short stories about the Vietnam War, based on his own experiences. (One of several, I think. He had lots to say on this subject.) The Vietnam War is one of those historic events I find so perplexingly awful. The fact that you could sit in front of the news at night with your family waiting to see if your birthday (or your brother’s or your boyfriend’s) was called. That we sent sweet, 18-year-old boys with no life experience to die or be traumatized against their will. That’s so dark and dystopian.

4) The Road, Cormac McCarthy. Speaking of dark and dystopian, this post-apocalyptic quest story crosses my mind often. There’s a scene where he finds a coke while scavenging and lets the boy have it. Because he’s never had one before and likely never will again. Not an uncommon idea for that genre, but the execution was very good and the language of the book is highly stylized, almost like a very long poem. That scene comes back to me sometimes.

5) City of Girls, Elizabeth Gilbert. It’s got 1940s fashion, sex, the New York theater scene, and the very smart, dry humor Elizabeth Gilbert is SO good at. I’ve read this one twice so far, but I’m sure I’ll read it again.

Beard Oil by Tim Carman & The Street 45s from the album Live at Skate Park

[fizzcosplays]

Who's everyone's favorite Tobias in Sweeney Todd? like Broadway, in concert, movie, etc.

Mine is Neil Patrick Harris (I think I'm biased lol)

[shinsui-f-works]

Help!For Japan 2012. I've written several times on Instagram and Facebook, but I only discovered FAIR WARNING in January this year.

Why now? You might ask.

The reason for this was that music was not particularly important in my life.

････Until I heard FAIR WARNING.

So I also learnt this year that Tommy Heart organised a charity for Japan and released this song with other artists just after the Great East Japan Earthquake 13 years ago.

Osaka, where I live, was not affected at this time.

But I have experienced a fire once.

At that time I was helped by my neighbours and was very moved by the help I received from others.

Disasters are very frightening and not something I want to experience too often.

However, it is in these times that we can help each other, strengthen our bonds with others and feel grateful to them.

We Japanese were very happy to have been helped and encouraged by Tommy Heart and the other artists who participated.

It's long overdue, but I made this video to thank Tommy and all the wonderful artists who took part in this charity.

Original Song by Jaded Heart

（thank you to Mr.P.F for teaching me this.）

The winner of the loser's bracket will go against the winner of the winner's bracket and that winner will be declared the most unreliable

Causes of death in the Ace Attorney franchise

Because I'm bored, and what do we do when we get bored? We MAKE LISTS! I went through every character dead character in the canon game universe (so AA1-6, AAI1-2, and TGAA1-2, sorry PWvsPL) and jotted it all down below, so let's see what the most common (specified) cause of death in Ace Attorney is:

Stabbed (x15)

ª: She was stabbed, right? Like, she was poisoned first, but she died from the stab wound first, if I'm correct. Do tell if I'm wrong, lmao.

*: Accidental deaths

^: Natural death

¨: Deaths by suicide

°: Executed (Joe Darke's method of execution isn't mentioned, but if we assume Japanifornia goes by Japan laws, then hanging is the only method of execution used. Probably a higher number of deaths by hanging then, whether you believe some people got executed or not. Also, a lot of the killers in TGAA probably got executed, too? I just jotted down the confirmed cases, but yeah.)

(Also, von Karma died of 'Something'. Who knows. Of being too ashamed, maybe. Sucks to be him).

I probably missed some characters/omitted them, because who knows, it's my list I guess. If I forgot someone important do let me know!

I played Imposter Factory with a friend recently and this is kinda my thoughts on it along with my general thoughts with the To The Moon series.

Also uh spoilers.

So in the game Lynri and Quincy have a child named Tobias who at a pivotal decision in their life, they chose to have Tobias early due to Lynri’s medical condition. Lynri feels guilt for this when Tobias passes a few years later due to complications with his health due to being born so premature.

The big twist of the game is that Tobias is actually Neil in a simulated alternative timeline and in reality, Lynri chose to have her baby first and then treat her illness afterwards.

In the reality timeline, Tobias is Neil and while he does inherit his mother’s chronic illness, he grows up to be an adult. Due to delaying her treatment Lynri passes away but does get to see Neil grow up a significant portion of his life.

I really like how the game doesn’t really present either timeline as better than the other. Tobias’s life is just as valuable as Neil’s life no matter how short it was. Neither choice was the correct choice for Lynri and Quincy to make as they did not know the future and could decide what they prefer.

Lynri is not selfish for seeking treatment and thus having to give birth to Tobias prematurely and Neil should not feel like it was his fault for having to make his mother choose between himself and herself.

Ultimately it was Lynri’s choice and neither one of them were incorrect, they were just different choices that let Quincy and Lynri down different paths.

Now the To The Moon series has this sort up interesting choice that’s also not correct or incorrect. The first game shows a man who chooses to have his memories altered so that as he passes, he dies with the memories of a so-called perfect life. In Finding Paradise, Colin feels as if he’s missing that perfect life but ultimately he doesn’t need to have his memory altered as his life was fine the way it is and he can pass with no regrets.

Johnny wanted to go to the moon because of a subconscious promise that he forgot that he made to his future wife when he was a child. He forgot that promise but it was so ingrained in his subconscious (along with the repressed memories of his twin) that the solution was to alter his memory and take him to the moon in the simulated memory. It was a way of fulfilling his promise since obviously he couldn’t go to the moon if he didn’t remember the promise which is what Sigmund promises to its clients.

However for Colin, Sigmund’s services wasn’t exactly needed. He just had a sense that maybe he was missing out on something (it’s literally described in the wiki and I think by Neil as FOMO hahahahah) and while he does have regrets, he doesn’t need to change anything.

Both Colin and Johnny make a choice. Neither of them are the right and wrong choice but they’re choices. By going to Sigmund, Johnny is able to unlock his memories of his twin and his childhood and is given memories of a life where his twin doesn’t die and he doesn’t forget. Colin thinks he needs Sigmund’s services but ultimately doesn’t. I think the only changes are Faye erasing Sigmund from his memory if I read the wiki right hahahahha I haven’t played finding paradise is awhile.

What I’m kinda getting at is that both the simulated memories and reality are fine. Neither are represented narratively as inherently good or bad. For Johnny it was good, for Colin, it was not needed. And that’s why I really like how Imposter Factory treated Lynri and Quincy. At the end, they find out their life is just a simulation within like thousands of other simulations. All the Lynri’s and Quincy’s from all the simulated timelines are all turned into one and they’re offered a simulated life where everything is perfect. Lynri’s chronic illness is cured and there is no complications with her pregnancy, they get to see Neil grow up and marry Eva, they get to travel the world together. It’s not all too much different from their reality life other than that Lynri and Quincy were given more time. However before accepting the offer of the perfect simulated timeline, Lynri feels apathetic towards it, feeling as if there’s not worth in it because it is simulated. However To The Moon does not place a moral value on the simulated memories, they just are, and they bring happiness. It is not some matrix red pill blue pill shit, and it’s not a sinister lie since the person is consenting to the procedure, it’s simply a decision. For Quincy and Lynri, it’s a decision that gives them more time, and to experience a life where they essentially have the maximum amount of time together.

Tobias, Lynri and Neil’s lives are not worth less because they’re shorter, they’re just as valuable, however with the simulated world, they’re given more time together. Tobias and Lynri dying is sad and tragic but to mis quote Ride the Cyclone, “I would gladly take my [few years] over nothing”. The simulated world simply gives them more time together that reality couldn’t give them. And to misquote Don Hertzfeldt World of Tomorrow, “you are alive and living now, now is the envy of all the dead”. So Lynri had envy of other because she essentially viewed herself as destined to die and die soon. But the simulated world gave her more of the now that she ignored. Lynri lived her life planning for the future because she wanted to leave a mark on the world before she died. And in doing so, she missed the now. But the simulated world gave her so much now, even if it is simulated, it doesn’t make it any less valuable. And maybe because it’s just as good or maybe it’s because it requires no defining of moral judgment. Either way, simulated Lynri and Quincy are alive in some sense, they are definitely sentient being able to grapple with the concept that they are living in a simulated world, and they do have to die as the simulation needs to end, but Faye offers them the simulated life, where they get more now to spend together. In that context it doesn’t matter if the simulated world is “real” or not. One gives you more now even if it’s not in reality and the other option is just no more.

And in the reality world, is poor Neil. He granted a virtual copy of his parents a perfect simulated life. But he’s living in the past. Hopefully he learns to enjoy more of the now, as there’s nothing wrong with the past, it’s important to take the past with us.

I guess I sorta have a fascination with the concepts of moral philosophy but all my technical knowledge of it is like watching The Good Place and taking one introductory course in philosophy in university. Oh and I guess watching things like Philosophy tube, and there is philosophy in all my courses even if they’re not strictly labelled philosophy.

I dunno, I just love life and the lessons I take away from To The Moon boiled down and oversimplified is that hindsight is 20/20 HAHAHAHA. Sigmund in universe can use hindsight and alter memories but the virtual memories don’t negate the good lives in reality. We make choice and they may have ramifications but we won’t ever know the branching timelines and so we don’t have to dwell on it forever.

Oh yeah also the most important message: RICEBOT THE CREATOR OF WORLDS AND THE COOKER OF RICE. QUINCY WAS ROBBED OF HIS RICE REWARDS.
