I really enjoy the life series being a thing that goes “thrown into a death game and shit gets intense and we all end up needing therapy” BUT ALSO the meta version where it’s “Grian invited us to a death game and we voluntarily went and shit got intense but it’s all good we know we’re doing this for entertainment, no hard feelings anywhere (although some players hold grudges stronger than others)”

But what if it was combined? Sorta like genloss

Maybe it’s only the winners who see eldritch beings holding cameras or floating cameras. The winners get a special mic held up to them while they rant about their strategies or thoughts. Maybe everyone else sees it too, but it becomes invisible to them as the season progresses. As shit gets intense and they get their head lost in the game

And Gem, the newest addition, doesn’t have seasons worth of ignoring the things out of the corner of her eye. She catches a camera and stares right at it. At the audience. Us

The eye imagery still stands, because what the players perceive as floaty glowing eyes are actually camera lens. Reflective black “eyes”. Watching. Waiting. Recording

#secret life #trafficblr #traffic series #life series #reminder that everyone can interpret and enjoy the life series however they want #this is just one take on it #I do love me a concept where everyone brings their own special cameras #and at the end of the day they go back to their lil editing rooms and make their lil cinematic episodes #break time is everyone having a picnic together #but like #the angst potential of everyone being in their own worlds #and every so often having to live through betrayal and drama between friends #I eat that up too #OOO AND GENLOSS THEMES #the audience choosing what the characters will do #the tasks being harmless and silly in the beginning #but get more risky dramatic and aggressive as the episodes go #the final few shoving and kicking each other to stay in the spotlight #to stay relevant #to stay alive #but it’s all an illusion of choice #there is no true escape #not until the audience loses interest #and you know how that goes

Knowledge Revenge.

#dungeon meshi #chilchuk tims #senshi #Somewhat of an unofficial sequel to the Dragon Comic. I promise I have more versatility in my jokes. I just had to take this opportunity.#Senshi is pretty much a recluse. I think he would know a few of these 'gottems' but not all.#Chilchuck would know gottems that are nearly lost to time. The deep cuts. The ones that you fall for because they are that obscure.#I would also like to take a moment to confess that after the last comic in which I posed a gottem -#I fell victim to a Mind Goblin Attack. I was thoroughly got. I will be on higher alert this time.#So NOBODY be funny in the tags. I am gullible and I like to share things with my friends. Who are *ruthless*.#I have a mild resistance to Vicious Mockery at this point but I can only take so much.#Happy Thistle Thursday Everyone! See you next week!

gf fandom in 2016: if you so much as hint - even jokingly! - about the nature of ford and bill’s relationship being anything other than platonic (and even then you NEED to give a disclaimer that bill is manipulating him!) then you support abusive relationships

gf fandom in 2024:

#i’m making fun of myself in this one too folks #also pls don’t take this seriously if u don’t like billford it’s fine i’m just making shitty memes #even I only really ‘ship’ it in a completely cracky way #billford #bill cipher #stanford pines #gravity falls #the book of bill #my posts

Whoever conceived and animated this moment, I hope they're doing well and thriving. This is S-rank romance stuff here.

#the ship overall is C to A tier #but it's things like THIS that push it up toward the A #titan ae #titan a.e.#cale #akima #it just...#starts with them chilling together being comfortable in each other's space #that would be enough that's a point there #then she goes and HANDS HIM THE SANDWICH SHE'S EATING #sharing their food #that's another one #and she does it because his hands are busy so he can't feed himself #so that's a third point #and she does it WITHOUT LOOKING AT HIM which is a FOURTH point #and he bites into it without request or invitation so that's a FIFTH point #and then he TAKES THE WHOLE SANDWICH AND GULPS IT DOWN LIKE A LIZARD #which is a SIXTH point #and jumps it up to SEVEN because she pulls her fingers free and finally looks at him and yells at him #IT'S A SEVEN-POINT ROMANCE COMBO #do you know how utterly rare those are?#those are generally earned through KISS scenes where the hands move and the heads touch and maybe there's a spin #they achieved a seven-point romance combo by SHARING A SANDWICH #fixing machines and sharing lunch URRRRRRRRRRRRGHHHHH

[I.D. an edited version of the "is this a pigeon" meme. A man with glasses, captioned "my overstimulated ass" points at a butterfly, captioned "someone making an annoying noise". At the bottom of the image, a dialogue caption reads "is this a crime deserving the death sentence?" end I.D.]

No one tells you when you get a Big Serious Job™ how many fucking abbreviations you’ll be forced to learn.

#or how many abbreviations that you’ll come across that mean something different from what you’ve always known #I stopped reading a requisition to make this post because I read a sentence that was like #‘something something the COR and the contractor POC’#and I stopped like ‘contractor person of color???’ before remembering Point of Contract #also no one at my job tells you what any of this stuff means. they’re just like Morgan can you take care of this DOA?’#and I gotta sit there like Dead on Arrival??? before figuring out it’s a Delegation of Authority spreadsheet

maybe never forgive. but things are different now. so we'll use maybe.

#my version of a happy ending au #mouthwashing #captain curly #mouthwashing anya #anya #curly #my art #considering this game takes place in a hellscape #i imagine one of the other horrifying angles for anya was that she might not even have the rights to abort the wound #so i like to think. curly. thinking he's going to die anyway. just takes all of the medical bills from his crew #because if he lives then he'll spend his life paying it all off #and if he dies. then he takes the burden with him #but him and anya are horrible horrible parallels now. and they cant NOT care about each other #he'll turn himself into the horse. he'll be the beast of burden. anything he said. anything #and for once he actually means it.

We are well beyond canary in the coalmine warning levels with the way trans people and particularly trans women are treated on this site.

Maybe you've heard the metaphor of allowing wolves and sheep to share the same space, welcoming everyone. You end up with just wolves because allowing them in that space makes it unsafe for any sheep. Or the story about how a nazi goes into a dive bar and is refused service. The bartender then explains to someone else at the bar that if you serve them once they tell their friends and before you know it you're the nazi bar they all go to and normal customers don't feel safe.

Terfs and other bigots are seeing these targeted harassment campaigns succeed against trans women and rejoicing. They see Tumblr ban them and officially stand by those decisions as endorsement for their harassment. It's a sign to bigots across the internet that Tumblr is a good place for them.

And what's more is that a lot of us probably don't realize just how much trans women contribute to Tumblr. The women banned recently were sources of site-wide memes and posts I wasn't even aware originated from them.any years old memes and references can be traced back to trans women on this site.

How many of these folks have to be removed before this is no longer a site you want to be a part of it? Sure you cultivate your own experience, but you can't follow or interact with people who aren't here. And if I wanted to interact with the nazis and terfs I'd go to reddit.

I encourage everyone to reblog this. Trans women shouldn't have to be the only ones speaking out against the bigotry they're experiencing. They shouldn't be the only ones risking their blogs being nuked by staff. We have to stand with them.

#i didnt want to make this a post about how their being oppressed impacts you too #but honestly trans women contribute way more to this site's culture than pretty much any other single group of people #taking them out #and especially the more well known ones #absolutely destroys community #i think not just the trans community here though it definitely does that #but its also tearing away at the overall site community #if tumblr doesnt get shit under control this will hurt them more in the long run than anything else #protect trans women #thats what youve gotta do staff

The math just adds up!

#dungeon meshi #falin touden #marcille donato #farcille #I always loved how chapter 27 ends with them both so bloody and 28 starts with them in the bath.#not just because of how iconic the bathtub moment is but because you know they had to scrap off so much gore first.#I think everyone in the party took a very long and methodical bath but Falin was basically *all* blood*.#Being covered in blood is one of those 'just girly things' that women deserve to stop being shamed about.#I just don't think Chilchuck is progressive enough. He probably made them take a bath first B*/#Okay jestering aside I want to just highlight -#The magnitude of Marcille's joy at seeing her dearest friend again! Of holding her and sharing her presence in the same room!#Something about this reunion feels like a beautiful dream you are afraid of waking up from...

calling my lover "mine" but not in the way that my toothbrush or notebook are mine, mine in the way my neighborhood is mine, and also everybody else's, "mine" like mine to tend to, mine to care for, mine to love. "mine" not like possession but devotion.
