genuinely so many of you want to be leftist and "punk" and countercultural soooooo bad but you refuse to become comfortable with the concept of people taking drugs for fun because they like it and not because they were somehow tricked or forced into it without knowing what they were getting themselves into

you'll be like "addiction is a disease!!" but think you're better than those degenerate stoners because you only drink energy drinks and white claws and would never touch "illegal drugs"

many if not most drugs CAN be consumed completely safely with almost 0 risk to the user and even if that werent true and all drugs were extremely dangerous you still wouldn't be better than those of us who love doing drugs recreationally

lighten up and grow up. get offline, talk to real adults, and stop being shocked to discover that they enjoy doing stuff that adults do like have sex and do drugs and even listen to rock and roll

aren't you tired of being nice? Don't you want to crack under the pressure of the system and the robbed autonomy of being forced into a role you had no choice in but have to play anyways? don't you want to buckle under the realization that, to you, no matter what you do your life is going to end in a horrific death? Whether that be under Luo Binghe's hands or the System's?

Don't you want to realize that no matter all the good you have done and the lives you have changed and saved, you're still standing at the ledge of a cliff with a sword to your disciple's chest?

Shouldn't it be you at the edge instead? Balancing on the crumbling dirt's end of death on either side, and you can either walk into it or be forced?

don't you want to go apeshit?

the edge of sleep show had a bit of jank but i honestly really enjoyed it for that, it felt surreal and Weird in a similar way to how i view the janky voice acting in the original Silent Hill 2 where it really added to it. i'm not even a markiplier fan or anything but i had a lot of fun w it

Danse has to get homesick In Sanctuary. Like despite being uncertain of how much his past is real including times with the Brotherhood, those memories were home. The Brotherhood was home especially the Prydwen.

No matter all the comfort and the luxuries SoSu could put to make him feel more relaxed or like it’s his space it’s still not home. It’s so unique to him cause everyone else has a home in a sense. A thing or place they can come and go to as they please while Danse doesn’t. He can never go back to the people he considered family and they can never go to him without serious consequences. It doesn’t help that (due to his own faults and beliefs) a good majority of the new people in his life do not exactly like him.

It’s so isolating for him as the wasteland is also a different culture in general. Theres so much he’s not used to vs what he is. But all in all I think that’s a good thing. I feel as if Danse had a better arc in game it would 100% have him learning or developing a sense of home before a sense of self. I think it gets overlooked that Danse is a person that likes or feels like he needs to belong to something. A cause, a philosophy, a mission. He needs a goal. He must learn to live for himself and his purpose but it’s clear he wants to find that through something which is why he latches onto the Sole Survivor after rather than just wander the wastes. He needs something, anything to base a sense of self on at this point in time and who better than the person that opened their home to him in the first place.

He’s a dude that needs a foundation or home to ground himself on or else he doesn’t know what to do with himself or even start.

So sad my motivation to do art dies so quickly due to multiple reasons. I’ve really got to try and get out this rut of hoping for more from my art when of course it’s not going to do so when it’s not fandom art nor do I post often enough 💀

anyway, have a doodle of Devious with his son when he was younger as that one picture.

hello i am going insane over the Truman Show again

the fact that we the audience are so distanced from Truman, is done wonderfully. before he even becomes fully aware that there's camera's that could be watching them, and figuring out where they are, there are still so many moments were his face is blocked by something, or he's looking away, and creates distance. i don't think he ever talks to himself during the entire movie. the closest we get to being inside his head, is during flashbacks, but even then it's still an outside perspective of the events that are being played when it's pretty likely from context cues that he's thinking about the event. the only times we know what he's thinking, is when he's telling someone he knows about it. and as the amount of people he realizes he can trust dwindles throughout the movie, the less we know of his thoughts. even his entire escape happens off-screen until he almost reaches the ocean wall, and they find him through the cameras. we didn't even know he had a plan to escape still until he's already gone, and Marlon is left to find the ladder leading to the hole in the basement (admittedly, he did give a hint with his "That one's for free" in regards to his final mirror daydream. but again it's something that he specifically decided to share! it wasn't us hearing his thoughts, it was him telling the camera he knew what was going on)

despite being the main character, the movie is specifically not shown from Truman's POV and i think they did an amazing job at it

Thank you ^^

This was based on a dream I recently had and I wished I have more time watching this unfold, had I not been waken up by my sibling :']

I can't remember much about what happened before this began, but I'll try to recall some of them.

It all began with Red not cleaning the house and was sleeping at his bed. Then Edge bursted into his room and yelled at Red for not doing a single chore. Some shouting happened, but the one thing that tipped Edge into a fit of anger was Red losing an item that he held dearly and had trusted Red to keep it safe.

Red felt ashamed for breaking his brother's trust, so he kept quite while Edge chewed him out. After the fight, Edge left the room with the door slammed. It took a few minutes of Red shaming himself before attempted to search for the lost item.

I'm not sure what happened here, so you can imagine it yourself :']

The next thing Red knew, he woke up in his bedroom and was tucked in. He couldn't remember what happened, but the mess in room brought him back to the argument he had with Edge. He scrambled to find the item on him. When he realized it wasn't there, tears were forming in his eye sockets and knew that his brother won't look the same way again and he'd be all alone.

While Red was in his spiralling thought, Edge walked inside his room and immediately hugged his older brother. He calmed Red down and told him how thankful he was for retrieving his lost item back to him.

And then this scene began.

in the Horrors bonanza year that has been 2024 nobody expected the oldest and dearest Horrors of all (covid horrors) to make a third act comeback

i've really dithered around the puppet rabbit hole for my entire life, sometimes sitting by it and dangling my legs over the felted abyss, but by worm am i jumping headfirst into it now with perfect diving form

we're all the worst kind of chrome samurai now

AVAILABLE NOW on ITCH.IO!

The year is 2023 and it is the future.

Corporations rule the streets of the Infinite City. Skyscrapers blot out the blackened sky. The rain is constant and smells like sulfide. Bosozoku patrol the alleys, protests against the Black Shakes fill the streets, and the media doesn't give a damn anymore.

You are one of the chosen, to be sure; one of the few, to be pure.  Make your way through the dystopian hellfuture.  Steal to make your living. Build a new future for yourself.  You're gonna get out of this or you're going to die trying. 

Play as a COP, CORPO, FIXER, MEDIA, NOMAD, ROCKER, SOLO or TECH. Carve out a name for yourself.  Stick it to the bastards once and for all. 

A VIEW FROM THE EDGE 2023 is a retroclone of the classic 1993/2020 edition of the classic cyberpunk roleplaying game. In this edition, we have strived to keep all rules and tables compatible with the original release but updated the layout and design to modern standards.

GET IT HERE!
