Stumbled upon a Reddit thread (don't ask) where people still whine and bitch about having to pick the "Nah, fucked that up too," dialogue option at the Oil fields to have a good relationship with Johnny. Saying that it needs to get fixed, calling it 'antagonizing' him, further proving that they don't understand him or his friendship with V at all. Sorry, but what's still not clicking? Holding him accountable for what he did and being honest with him is the only way you can have a good relationship with him for a reason.
It's not scolding him, it's not being mean, it's just V telling him 'No, what you did hurt me and I can't trust you anymore.' And he needs that, he needs someone who won't let him get away with the shit he does, he needs someone who is honest with him and won't just agree with everything he says so that he can grow and change. He knows he royally messed up, but he needs to hear that from V too. How do you expect V to have a true friendship with him if they just let him walk all over them and act like he did nothing wrong and everything's fine?
And it makes sense that the devs chose this as the secret ending unlocker because you can't have them storm Arasaka Tower together in full synergy when some parts of them are still at odds with each other.
Listen, I love Johnny as much as we all do here, but he needs to be called out when he messes up, and that's that.

working in a factory has you thinking so much about the insane chain of labor & transport that goes into making literally anything
#like first you realize that You are making & doing things that you previously had thought - if you'd thought abt it at all - were automated#& you become incredibly aware of how all the materials you're working with came from somewhere - these plastic clips are from france; this#fabric is from india etc. and that there are people in factories there making those things and that they are also probably getting their#materials from somewhere#one of the little things that makes me think about this the most is we have these 50m rolls of cotton banding we see onto canvas & nets#and in theory it should be all one piece but sometimes it's actually two pieces which you discover when you get far enough in the roll and#find that there's a join where it's been stitched together by hand (!). which is a little annoying bc we can't use that bit so you have#to cut that but out & stitch it together again on the machine which interrupts what you were sewing before & slows you down But it's so#striking to me bc like it's really easy to look at this banding & it's so exactly the same & obviously machine made it's Really easy to#forget that there are people there running these machines. who notice there's a break & have to stop what they're doing & get a needle &#thread and stitch it together. by hand! like someone somewhere has handled exactly where I'm touching it & i don't even know where in the#world they are!#the other place this happens is often on the selvedge edge of the fabric there's writing in pencil i don't know ye meaning of but evidently#was important to the process somewhere & someone wrote that out#idk like it's really easy to watch those videos of really specific machines in factories & convince yourself that everything is automated#but the truth is the vast majority of stuff is not & is made by people doing that. & even when it is there are people running those machine#<- and i'm not saying this in a soppy way tbc. this whole system is a nightmare of exploitation & to some degree I'm just continually amaze#by how insane this whole process is & also how completely un-transparent it is unless you are made to think abt it#another thing is noticeable when you look at our orders that most of what we sell isn't to customers it's to shops who then sell to custome#which then makes you think like. those plastic clips from france are they actually made in france or are we just buying them from france?#are they actually made by underpaid people in a country the name of which is completely lost to the chain of production at this point#anyways none of this is new it's just when you are working in a factory using this stuff you start wondering like.#what's the factory like that the person who stitched this banding together like. what's their day like there#wish we could talk abt how fucked up this all is - for them especially probably - together#thoughts

rye in the sheltered glade with evka and antoine after destroying the blight eruption with unholy amounts of alchemical fire, looking Directly at lucanis studying a flower as it emerges undaunted from the thousand year horrors of the blight with all the guileless wonder and fascination of a little boy: yeah that's uh. wow. that is beautiful actually. this kind of does change everything doesn't it

i strongly agree that ā€œshippingā€ should not be automatically conflated with annoying tendencies that are very common in fan spaces, and you are not a more earnest and intellectual fan or whatever if you are opposed to it and neglect it lol. it is a sentiment that i have noticed growing as a reaction to how ship centric and virulent discussion of art can become, but romantic relationships and sex obviously can and will typically be an extremely integral part of characters and stories, and it is pretty hilarious to act like and imply that ā€œit is not worthwhile, it is unserious and just self indulgent, and it diminishes what stories and dynamics are really about.ā€ if you are vigorously opposed to engaging with these aspects of characters and their stories and are condescending towards others for doing so you might be missing huge chunks of the very writing you herald, which does not make you all that different from the people you are fuming about lmao

Specifically thinking about long distance relationships today.
So tell me how you and your f/o would first meet online?
#I feel like Bakugou and I would meet in one of those online games heā€™s downloaded to mindlessly waste time between shifts#and heā€™s so foul at first because he thinks Iā€™m weak but we play and he realises that Iā€™m#actually whooping everyone and heā€™s like well damn okay#and now heā€™s messaging in the alliance chat and like getting excited when Iā€™m online even tho he tries to hide it#and gets annoyed when other creeps in his alliance try to flirt with me#and then heā€™s asking for my discord#me and Sanemi get into a fight on discord the first time we interact#in some stupid big server I only joined for the emojis#but heā€™s a jerk so I tell him to shut up and a message later I find a msg notification and itā€™s him trying to continue the conversationšŸ˜­#enjin slides into my dms on Instagram#he finds my post at a concert and hates the fuckboys that are commenting below#ends up messaging me to see if Iā€™m okay but then immediately worries heā€™s one of those guys#Tamsy I feel like is that mutual Iā€™ve had forever on twt and we like each others posts but weā€™ve NEVER talked to each other??#itā€™s not until Iā€™m feeling sad at 2am and I post something self-deprecating that he drops me a msgšŸ„ŗ#and we end up staying up until 5am just talking to each other#Kirishima is ALWAYS the guy that responds to my ā€˜morningā€™ with a morning back! every day without fail#and I slide into his DMs one day and ask how heā€™s ALWAYS awake when I am??? like to say it back so quick#and he admits heā€™s kinda learned my schedule and he tries to be online for it because itā€™s one of the best parts of his day#and he likes saying it backšŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ even if heā€™s off from a night shift and needs sleep he canā€™t without seeing me msg#Shindou blatantly flirts with me in a gaming discord and I think heā€™s an incel so I block him#he gets a friend to ping me to beg me to unblock him and I refuse#the friend then sends another message with a screenshot of Shindou basically begging me to unblock himšŸ˜­#Dot and I meet in one of those AITA Reddit threads#and we end up borderline arguing over whether op is TA#so much that we get told to take it elsewherešŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­#enjo#bakujo#eijo#but also catch me sending Dynamight sassy banter on his official socialsšŸ˜­šŸ˜‚

soft!merthur obsessed with each other and being completely, glaringly obvious about it. walking close enough for their fingers to be constantly brushing, talking with their other hand and refusing to break the touch. standing next to each other in a group, slowly shifting closer and closer until theyā€™re pressed up against each other. despite there being other people, whenever they speak the other just has to respond leading them to turn to one another and have their own back and forth, their heads tilting closer and closer until their noses are just inches apart. merlin pretending to find issues with arthurā€™s clothes to fix that arenā€™t actually there just to touch him but arthurā€™s not gonna comment on that bc it means he gets to feel merlinā€™s touch. gazing at each other across the room, across the training field, across camp, etc and just watching them exist with the softest gaze and a small, tender smile. when the other feels their gaze they look up at them first and meet their eyes unflinchingly. them staring at each other for a moment before they resume what they should be doing (albeit slightly flustered). arthur finding any excuse to keep merlin in his chambers just a little while longer when he should be retiring for bed

regarding my post abt ppl using judaism to feel more oppressed/racialized (n opt out of whiteness/privilege) (n this is v much a general jewish thing, far from exclusive to a specific brand of converts) is how progressive/reform jews will pick n choose jewish traditions they like/follow (which is fine by itself) but "coincidentally" pick anything and everything that will make them seem more "visibly" jewish, and more than that, more racialized. its so so telling how a lot of progressive/reform jews (n its v much a white thing but i dont think its exclusive to white ppl) will choose to cover their hair in an obvious attempt to mimic hijabis, bc theyre more racialized. (annoying "neopagans" n xtians do it too but theyre not what the post is abt so). when married women do it its one thing n like wearing headscarves for fun is another thing as well, i used to do it too, but dont kid urself n us by pretending its some ~deep spiritual connection to judaism~. ur neither a woman nor married, why r u covering ur hair.

it obviously has existed before then but new readers/watchers of dungeon meshi have had interactions that have solidified my hatred of a certain phenomenon, which is when somebody has a question or just observation about a piece of media, which is answered later in the piece of media, and is therefore currently a spoiler to them
and you get swathes of people being like "lol do they know" "nobody tell them xD" "do they know?" "oh sweet summer child šŸ˜…" "ermmmmm no spoilers but *heavily vaguely implied spoiler*" "do they know?" "Who's gonna tell them"

I don't actually think the archive should start banning things but I DO think it would be very funny if they locked Harry Potter as a fandom and were just like, "actually, we're good here. Enough stories have been made. No more need to be added. Archive is full."

I do think its funny when someone says ā€œoh the fans make everything about the batfamā€ as if thats a fanon thing and not something DC did. Like. As a Batman fan, DC keeps sticking bats where they dont belong in an effort to sell more. This is a real thing the fans did not do.
