The tragedy of the centralized internet.

The irony of DeviantART shooting its own nuts off while Twitter gleefully sets itself on fire in the background is surpassed only by Pixiv's recent decision to bow to American credit card companies and prohibit artists from making money off of nsfw art after December 15, 2022

A while back, someone asked me if I'd do a gif collage of Vincent Price wearing a white doctor's coat. Well, here's a couple. Hope you like it. :)

The past 3 days have been difficult

Connectivity wise, I mean. I'm having a lot of Internet trouble, and I hate writing on phone/tablet. Data isn't unlimited either so...

While I'll keep working on the prompts, it may take some days before posting resumes.

For all the random retcons of new information we get, the most absolutely fucked thing about Overwatch is their timeline. Holy shit.

You know that piece of writing advice that tells you to keep concrete numbers to a minimum, especially in terms of stuff like timespans? Well no one at the rotating cast of Blizzard's Overwatch creative team has, because it's resulted in this fucked up situation where it seems like almost all of the cast joined some kind of military/combat organization when/right before they turned 18. Like:

Tracer was a pilot for the Royal Air Force at either like 17-18 was somehow able to be cleared to be a experimental test pilot, at bare minimum, before she was even 20

Cassidy and Ashe founded the Deadlock Gang before they were 20. Cassidy in particular got the whole Boxed Crook treatment when he was like, 17. Meaning he helped found and lead an internationally infamous gang, and was then subsequently press ganged into a black ops unit, before he could legally drink.

Mercy was the head of surgery at a hospital when she was around 18 and joined Overwatch like a year or two after.

Brigitte starting running around helping Reinhardt at 18.

Pharah enlisted in the Egyptian Military when she was either 18 or potentially 17.

Sombra was part of a gang when she was 10 and discovered a conspiracy network that forced her to erase her identity, which she did successfully, before she was 20.

The constant rolling disaster that is Overwatch's game development aside, what really perplexes me about how Blizzard is handling the broader franchise is their continual insistence that a canon narrative exists in spite of their equally continual refusal to tell anyone what it is.

Like, okay, the events of the games aren't canon. Fair enough: the games are multiplayer-only, and you can't account for player actions.

Oh, and the animated short films aren't canon either – they're properly understood as in-universe propaganda, not depictions of actual events. That's a little high concept for you guys, but fine.

But surely the comics are canon, right? Well, no; some of the comics (we're not telling you which ones) were canon at one point, but the writing team has decided to go in a different direction.

My dudes, what is left? The weird Source Filmmaker porn? Is that canon? Well, apparently it's at least as canon as anything else!

Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

I love the idea that Bill’s manipulation tactics are horribly obvious but Ford is so socially inept that it works on him perfectly

“He was a masterful manipulator.”

No bestie he was just nice to you and you folded like a house of cards

Zero exception anti abortion laws basically means they don’t give a shit if women die. They literally see women as nothing but baby machines.

“Watchfully waiting” for women to die?

I wonder what the largest shellfish is?

Edit: Okay this post is getting a LOT of traction. What is going on?

Edit: Fucking hell.

This post has set off a fucking MINEFIELD!!!

I’ve lit the blue touch paper and found there’s nowhere to run to!

I’ve summoned a wolf only to unleash a tiger!!!!! Made of fire! And nails.

Probably….

Idk.

Edit 2: 5,000 Notes! Good god! What the HELL do you want from me. I’ve never had a post of mine take off like this until now.

Some got close like the one about homeowner associations (fucking powertripping middle aged mediocrities!) which got at least 1.5k notes but this is the most I’ve gotten on a single post so far.

Anyway.

AND this post has officially gone to hell. (6,666 notes)

Okay never mind it’s back. For now at least.

Anyway.
