Well I like it but it’s not very well written. Also it’s a visual mess. The plot doesnt make any sense and the creators suck and its politics oscillate from mildly problematic to frankly baffling. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. However. the character
#warlock wartalks#too many to name..goodbye world#now that this is getting notes I would like to officially state I was thinking abt Torchwood and several comic properties when making this#also great cities which yall know is close to my heart but I have an entirely different set of issues w its politics#mostly that nkj can do better

it's healthy for academics to have professional feuds. enrichment activity
#academics without arch nemeses are missing out on the greatest publication opportunities of their careers#nothing motivates you to publish when it's your only opportunity to stand up on your public soap box and shout#in great detail why your 'esteemed colleague's' theories are a pile of steaming horsedung#unrelated but what exactly is moriarty a professor OF

well it finally happened
so my dad is almost 80, this man's been making Spirk content since Star Trek started airing basically
he never knew ao3 existed, he just thought people stopped writing fanfic when ff.net died, like it was a fad that had outgrown him or smth
he clicked an ao3 link in my pinned last night, realizing that they were in fact clickable
he's mad at me for not telling him earlier. "I don't have a lot of years left in me and there's so much to read"
he's gonna spend his whole retirement reading trek fanfic now jesus christ
#never let anyone tell you you're too old for fandom when my dad's in the trenches rn#turning off reblogs cuz this was never supposed to escape containment#our relationship isnt great so getting asks about it is awkward

shaking my head while playing neko atsume so people know that I don’t support outdoor cats
#I heard they made neko atsume 2 and I couldn’t decide which I wanted so I downloaded both#the nice thing is that 1 comes with a watch app so I can easily check if there are new cats without pulling out my phone#great for when I go to pee at work and realize I left my phone but still wanna procrastinate#but 2 you can visit other people’s yards???

It actually bums me out that astrology has persisted through the years as the standard BS divinatory practice that people really buy into, when it so easily could have been ornithomancy instead.
We could’ve had hipster girls trying to predict the minutiae of your life using an intricate chart that details how many herons or crows you’ve seen in the past year. Instead of asking what’s your sign on dating apps people would be like how many birds did you see on your way to work today. I cannot stop thinking about what could have been.
#ornithomancy#birds#I’m not trying to specifically hate on astrology btw if you find it fun that’s great#it’s just a little silly when folks take it too seriously#birding

Obsessed with characters who portray themselves as worse than they are. Who are lying to everyone including themselves about it. People generally assume if someone's lying about themselves they're trying to look better but sometimes they're trying to look worse. They attribute agency to where they had none, add intent to accidents, try to convince everyone that this is something they did instead of something that happened to them.
#this is about tenko bnha#but it is also about dahlia ace attorney#watch the nezumiVA videos on ace attorney trilogy they're great#anyway dahlia saying she (at like. 6 years old) apparently convinced her father to abandon her sister. hmmm#also everyone including herself thinking of her as the manipulator in control with terry when she was 14 dating a 20 y/o#anyway these characters both did do terrible things but feel the need to pile on more and remove nuance from where it exists#to convince themselves that this is what they really want. that they chose this.#it's about the loss of control it's about being a victim feeling worse than being a villain#at least if you were the bad guy you had autonomy#shimura tenko#shigaraki tomura#dahlia hawthorne

I’m really enamored with the dynamic of two characters who work perfectly in tandem, like pacific rim drift compatible level, but they don’t like each other. It’s not even as strong an emotion as hate it’s just a very neutral-negative dislike, but they still act in perfect concert and their individual abilities are fully complementary
#text#liveblog tag#perso#i have unintentionally created this b/w nes and astarion#like they always share initiative. perfect for exploring bc both are rogues. great for platforming. ultimate sniper duo.#-3 approval. when I click him he says don’t touch me#the posts

hey so i Fully Believe that telemachus was not afraid of odysseus in Hold Them Down
people may have told him stories of Odysseus, King of Ithaca, Athena's chosen Champion, Hero of Troy
but mama's boy telemachus sat by her feet as she wove tapestry after tapestry; and penelope told her little wolf stories of his father
how they met, how he tripped over himself to woo her, how he cried his eyes out when penelope became pregnant, how telemachus wouldn't sleep in his cot as a baby because he was so used to being in his father's arms because odysseus would not put him down; and yes, how viciously he defended their family when the atrides came to retrieve him for the war
telemachus? the child of the Unhinged Power Couple? who knew very well how horrible those suitors were, how they treated him and spoke of his mother?
took one look at his dad viciously protecting their home, their family, and thought he was the coolest, strongest person ever (after mom ofc)
#epic the musical#epic#greek myths#the odyssey#odysseus and penelope#epic odysseus#telemachus#little wolf#odysseus of ithaca#penelope of sparta#penelope of ithaca#like dont get me wrong#the angst potential of telemachus struggling upon meeting odysseus is great#but i just cant fathom why he would only know the Legend of Odysseus#like would penelope talk about him in such a way? really?#also odypen are unhinged and while telemachus is Baby#hes also Their Kid and thought it was awesome when he decked antinous on his ass#idk just some Epic thoughts#jorge rivera herrans

Wanted to make some supportive Ford
#gravity falls#stanley pines#stanford pines#stan twins#sea grunks#my art#sketches#stan pines#ford pines#chibi stan#chibi ford#I get really emotional thinking about how ford would take any opportunity to tell stan words of encouragement#or general words of support#mainly because stan did that so much when they were younger#and now it’s ford’s turn#ford just being like: this is my brother all look at him look how great he is#i’m sorry i’m emotional lol

Happy one year anniversary to In Stars and Time!
#ISAT#in stars and time#siffrin#loop#I truly mean it when I say that this was the best game I have played since Disco Elysium.#It pulls off some of the best examples of Ludonarritive Harmony in a video game...possibly ever?#Not to mention just...wow. What a great story. What a tale of twists and introspection. What a tale about the need for home and connection#I know many of you have trusted me before with media recommendations. Trust me one more time.#Do you want to experience the torment of being in a timeloop? And *still* have fun and feel like your time is being respected?#PLAY IN STARS AND TIME!#Do you yearn for complex characters and love unravelling mysteries? PLAY IN STARS AND TIME!!!!#Please heed the content warnings; I took them a little too lightly on my playthrough! They are there for a reason! Don't be like me!#This game means a lot to me and so many others. On the small chance the dev sees this (they are on tumblr after all):#Thank you so much for all your hard work in creating this game and seeing the project through.#It has been a year for us fans but many years for you. So thank you!#I hope it has been a joyful year for you! Watching as people descend into shrieks of agony from playing your game.#It's good! It made me vomit blood. I had so much fun! I felt like I was torturing the protagonist when I played it. I loved it! I cried.
