Closed myself in a room with the lights off to play the Outlast DLC in one sitting this morning and now I think I need to go sit quietly on the couch and think hard about my life
#horror is my favorite genre to critique modern corporate dominance#alien resident evil severance etc#as much time as I spend bitching about my job you know it’s all I think about#but there’s nothing quite like a horror story to remind you that oh hey yeah my company also has. killed people. like#a lot of people#the only exaggeration in some of these stories is just a change of setting#not a change in magnitude#little bit of sci fi or supernatural flair or whatever but#I have 100% worked for… a really long time… for companies who have a body count at least as high as Weyland Yutani#probably not on par with umbrella corp though those guys really don’t know when to stop#outlast#outlast whistleblower

DPXDC CFAU Headcanon: Ghostspeak Edition
Ghosts in the Infinite Realms who saw Jason and Danny together called them "luzdra", a term in ghost speak that directly translates into the words "shared soul". It's literal definition is; "two ghosts with a bond so deep that it was as if they had split their souls in half and given one to the other", but in general it just means two ghosts with a profound, indescribable bond.
Luzdrus is the singular form of the word, and refers to only one ghost in the bond. While "luzdra" is plural and either refers to both of them together, or the relationship as a whole. It depends on the context of the conversation and who they're saying it to.
There is no romantic, platonic, or familial connotation behind the word. It just means "someone who shares a deep bond with someone" and can be between anyone.
It also does not mean soulmate, and if you say that you'll be corrected. Soulmates implies that their bond was destined by the universe, luzdra are two people who developed and built that bond themselves. It's a relationship forged between two (or more) people.
Some of Danny's rogues -- like Kitty and Johnny, who might've seen the two together and are possibly luzdra themselves -- still call him 'luzdrus' even after Jason's disappearance from the Zone. Danny doesn't know how to feel about it.

'luzdras' is the word 'shared soul' spelt backwards with the spelling changed#to look different while still keeping some of the original backwards sound. so i've got one part of the conlang structure set up so far#'lous derahs' -> 'lousderahs' -> 'lusdrahs' -> 'luzdrus'#then my friend Navistar helped me come up with the singular and plural form when i asked her for help#ghost speak is funky and imo doesn't always have a written way to describe a word. it's based on vibes and vibes alone. any word thats able#to be made out is accompanied with other sounds that drown it out. like static or ringing or beeping or glitching. lots of sound effect

The way that Olrox’s heritage and romance completely recontextualized his character. We first meet him when he kills Julia, and that’s bad no matter how you look at it, right? Wrong. Julia is a white European who came to the Americas and killed Olrox’s Mohican lover. Olrox retaliated, which is bad, yes, but how else was he going to get justice? No government would ever try a vampire hunter for the murder of a vampire, and no government would prosecute a white woman for harming a Native American. People like her were committing a state-sanctioned genocide. Even the suggestion of legal justice is ridiculous on its face. Julia’s death was wrong in the sense that violence doesn’t solve violence, in the sense that revenge begets revenge, but that’s it IMO. Olrox didn’t go any further—he didn’t torture her, he didn’t kill her son, AFAIK he didn’t kill anyone else that day. The only time we see him kill another human is in France when he kills a European noblewoman, the exact kind of person who profited most from the violence inflicted on him and his people. What I’m saying is that I’m dead serious when I say Olrox did nothing wrong
#Castlevania: Nocturne#Olrox#castlevania spoilers#nocturne spoilers#from Olrox’s perspective I’m sure that killing Julia was very similar to Annette killing the slavemaster vampire#like obviously there’s a difference in magnitude of violence (i.e. AFAIK Julia didn’t literally enslave anyone)#but that doesn’t change the fact that a victim of colonization getting revenge on their oppressor is totally understandable actually#mine

Thinking about when I [a (previously sex-repulsed) asexual] read smut for the first time and then thought about it literally all day and came back home and journaled this. Still the funniest thing I ever did.
#the answer is yes#by the way#that day went down in history#i celebrate yearly#that fic went down as THE jeno fic#changed lives honestly#oh what a wonderful time it was to be me#but that was when i used to read about johnny all the time but i COULDN'T read johnny smut#and then here comes jeno#and then i had a mid-life crisis#just an average day in ncity#nct dream#nct#nctzen#lee jeno#nct jeno#ALSO DON'T MIND MY HANDWRITING#IT'S EVEN WORSE IN ALL CAPS BUT I HAD TO EMPHASIZE THE MAGNITUDE OF THE QUESTION

*liberal voice* are you saying that "the working group to consider creating a working group which would consider writing a formal report considering the efficacies of X, Y & Z ways of addressing the problem" isn't actually a way of addressing the problem?
*dramatic self-important huff*
well at least one of us is doing something about it
#gradual change only works in the absence of gradual change in the opposite direction!#at least of comparable magnitude if not more#gradual change really means trying to sneak things in that the bourgeoisie are too stupid to notice#like thats literally the way gradualism moves forward.#by hoping you know a procedural loophole that gives you magical abilities to counteract their procedural loopholes#some harry potter ass 'who knows the better latin' kinda duel#hey moderate progressive fhange ass libs you know what kind of actual gradual change has actually tricked the bourgeoisie?#china's!#wonder what sort of mechanism that form of gradual change was enacted through#probably something roughly like 'defending joe biden online to incentivize him to be nice'#thats probably how the communist party of China operated i think

the thing about the wyrms is that usually they just don't move. they stay underground because it's where the crawling beasts are but also because they are just not the type of creature that can easily go anywhere. one that gets dragged aboveground will probably die of sunstroke and dehydration before anything else. they cannot use magic anymore. one travelling overland by choice has never happened before, ever, let alone a multi-year march supported entirely by an army of followers. To many people seeing this, they instinctively think it a sign of the end times, something deeply and intrinsically wrong with the world, something impossible. Of course this only works because Revelation can cast spells but eventually it doesn't need to, for any but it's closest inner circle, because despite the fear people hold for it, they are still drawn along, they know the world might end and they want to be on the right side. Or they just want to witness what they believe to be the dawn of a new age
#ice storm over kosa#im still percolating so things may change#but i like the idea that at a certain magnitude the cult is self-propagating and needs no magical input#people are very good at rationalising away doubts and fears and dragging others into their beliefs

Characters I need to see in the community movie-
Shirley Motherfucking Bennett (Yvette Nicole Brown doesn’t know if she’s going to be included, makes my teeth grind, she NEEDS to be there)
Frankie Dart (Paget Brewster so deserves to meet Troy and Shirley, I need to know their dynamic and if the steel drums bit shows up. She deserves the world!)
Professor Ian Duncan (John Oliver was so charmingly awkward in the show, it’d be an absolute farce if he didn’t show up for at least 5 minutes)
Magnitude (Luke Youngblood’s character is so needed, just ONE “Pop - POP” would ease my struggles)
Garrett (Erik Charles Nielsen’s story may feel finished, but how is Garrett doing? Is he still at Greendale?)
Neil (Charley Koontz’s story didn’t end by the end of the TV show, I would like to know if he’s happy? Is he hosting a famous DND Webshow? Tell me what happened to him!!!!)
I just need to know if they’re okay. And if Yvette isn’t in the movie I will be so upset, she deserves so much better than being forgotten by Harmon because she may not be important to the plot. Same with Paget’s character, though she was only here for one season she was lovely while she was here and she is SO a part of the nipple-dippers.

Had a sudden revelation earlier while getting out of the shower where I was like. I can be glad that I am happy with my weight and not think that stretch marks are inherently bad or ugly and sometimes wish I didn't get quite so many. Not many on my stomach, mostly just the tiny one I had from being pregnant with Leo turned into a big massive one that's like 1cm wide and a few cm long lol but they are absolutely all over my hips, my bum, my thighs (front and back and big deep ones on the inner thighs), even down to my calves. I know they'll fade but most of them are still red or purple rn. There's nothing wrong with them but also I didn't ask to be suddenly covered with them and it's okay that I don't always love that lmao
#i wasnt massively worried about how my c sec scar would look anyway but it#pales in comparison to the stretch marks in terms of magnitude of visible change

‘’we need a revolution’’ shut up the revolution is growing your own food and sharing it with your neighbours, it’s mending and recycling your old clothes. the revolution is teaching the kids on your road how to ride bikes and playing football with your friends at the council-run public park. the revolution is building ramps and accessible *free* bathrooms. the revolution is libraries and youth centres and public transport and food banks and benefits and unions and strikes and good teachers. the revolution is ignoring shoplifters and setting up support systems for vulnerable people and challenging the biases that are stuck in your head. the revolution is fighting and protesting in every seemingly insignificant act that you do. the revolution is when you help somebody. the revolution is kindness and you are missing it.
#this is to the dumbasses on tiktok planning an armed coup over the internet#and i’m not saying that riots and organised protests are of a lesser magnitude or importance#but the real revolution is one we have to fight for everyday#it’s every time we help somebody or do something small that can make the world a tiny bit of a better place#fight the little fight!#get over the sense that radical beliefs will lead to radical action without any other changes#leftism#you want to make the world a better place? be kind#communism#we do need a revolution#but that doesn’t just me tearing everything down

community characters as taylor swift albums (aka my excuse to merge my two current hyperfixations) part 1/2
-
debut (taylor swift): shirley bennett
reason: oldie (middle aged) but a goodie. she's underrated as hell is what i'm saying
-
fearless tv: ben chang
reason: now hear me out, first, he really is fearless and second, most of these songs are heartbreak songs which fits his divorce/separation arc
ps: thought this picture fit perfectly
-
speak now tv: dean craig pelton
reason: it's cunty as hell and so is he. also, horny as hell
ps: also thought this picture fit perfectly
-
red tv: britta perry
reason: this might be surprising because she makes a lot of personality based around the fact that she lived in new york but she's also angsty to her core so this album fits really well. i could do a deepdive into her and nothing new but that's for another day
ps: why do all of these keep fitting so well like ??
-
1989: ian duncan
reason: he has a lot of problems but does it with style (get it ;)
ps: if you get why i picked this picture of him you get a jellybean
#community nbc#taylor swift#feel free to add on#magnitude was a very close second for 1989#shirley bennett#ben chang#dean craig pelton#britta perry#ian duncan

JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR 2010 | Palau de la Música de València
#jesus christ superstar#jcs#jcs spain#leo jimenez#carlos cabrelles#judas iscariot#jesus christ#musicalgifs#musicaledit#jcsedit#mai gifs#not sure how i feel about the 'you wouldnt die' bc. it changes things yknow#on one hand i think that part of judas' character is not knowing the magnitude of delivering jesus to the romans#like thinking he would just be in jail for some time#but on other hand i think this is such a change bc the challenge is greater#'if i repent about this then what about your martyrdom? you wouldnt die' is lowkey good bc. judas knows jesus is a martyr. of course. and#also knows that jesus needs to sacrifice himself (though we later know in gethsemane that he's afraid of dying)#'you need to die. what if i don't let you?' it's heavier than the original. at least that's what i think#but it also doesn't make sense bc there's no way judas knew they would kill jesus just by talking with caiphas and annas lmao#(at least in the musical version; i don't know about other sources/materials)#so i'm not sure how i feel about this bit#wow that's a lot of rambling in the tags guys. oops#anyway i do love their voices so much and i can't stop listening to this production <3
