#we're not going anywhere

[archerinventive]

“Listen to me, girl, you have castles inside your bones, coronets in your heart, if he threatens you with battle, you raise him a whole war, the last time I checked, Queens cower before no man.”

This quote Queens II by Nikita Gill hits even harder this week, just as it did the last time.

To all of those who are hurt and scared right now, who have been thrown into a state of survival. 

Your feelings are justified.

If history has taught us anything, what happens next will be hard.

This vote is not the end though. There is so much we can all still do.

In the words of Michael McWhorter

"This is what we do now...

We're going to form community and make community stronger.

We're going to form families..not just blood but chosen families.

Were going to look out for each other.

If we have to do some Underground Railroad shit, we'll do it.

People who are less affected, like me, are going to have to stand up and help those who are more affected.

We rally around one another.

We're not going anywhere. We are here to stay. We take the day to grieve, feel disappointed and recoup, then continue our battle and fight like hell.

We can't give up now."

Stay safe out there, and know you are never alone.

As trans awareness week comes to a close, here's a message from ur local transmasc fella. *clears throat*

Don't be a dick, and listen hard when anybody opens up to you about ANYTHING regarding their identity/identities. It's *their* turn to talk, not yours, so let them completely articulate their thoughts before responding.

And if you have questions that they aren't comfortable answering... don't press. If ya *really* gotta know... Google it.

They *chose* to be vulnerable with you, so don't use that as an oportunity to spread misinformation or hatred. Please.

If you're gonna be an asshole, do it on your own time. Don't waste anybody else's with your BS.

Ahem. Thank you.

I loathe the UX update on desktop. That is all.

Btw those folks who tell y'all queer is a slur? They're nearly always TERFs aka radical "feminists", and haaaaate the word queer because it's an umbrella term that includes everyone in the lgbtQia+ family. They want to exclude anyone who isn't LGB. They're misogynists and not to be trusted.

Boy, there's sure a shitload of Infowars-connected blogs, pushing Racial animosity between black and white people on Twitter, EVEN THOUGH the main culprit is Israel.

Out of line

one thing that got me into your content was your perspective on the story games you played. for example when you played games like little nightmares, fran bow, and night in the woods, your input and commentary of the stories, concepts, and characters was so interesting and entertaining for me, and I'm sure many others

ig what I'm suggesting is games you and the audience can get truly invested in. during those streams, your humor wasn't the only thing carrying the stream, it was also your reactions and input that were refreshing to see.

this may be less like advice and more of a personal preference, actually T-T

but yea! you playing really cool games that make you Feel things is peak content !!

Heya! I want to make my content more enjoyable and easy for y’all to watch so what kind of stuff would you want to see from me more that you enjoy? (Not talking about game suggestions moreso just like types of content, what I should do more/less of etc.) as I want to make sure you guys are still having a good time :D

illario as the grandchild that is most like caterina is something i'm loving to chew on. the grandson that took her lessons to heart the most. kill anyone who sees your face and knows your name, "we are not revolutionaries", the first out of the two to prioritise the contract. power at any cost, and the only one to lean into the unnecessary abuse that their grandmother told them was tradition. why is anyone surprised he allied with the venatori? and then there's illario's considerable skill in infiltration and manipulating any mark, he has always had the charisma that lucanis lacked. illario isn't attached, he has/can/will use someone and immediately drop them; "that does free me from promises i don't intend to keep". he can lie about how much he cares so well that he fools a magister into believing he loves her. he kills zara without hesitation to cover his own tracks, meanwhile lucanis blindly promises a young girl in the middle of a siege that he will help her find her father. even the lessons about family stick with him, and in this entire messy power struggle, he never actually orders anyone to directly kill caterina or lucanis, not until he's backed into a corner.

and even after all that. despite even lucanis believing illario should be first talon, lucanis is still the better killer. illario is not strong enough to be the brutal assassin caterina needs him to be. so when lucanis seems to fill the role his mother left, grief and love for her dead heir apparent remains, and any of the other qualities caterina needs in her next talon doesn't matter. whatever his mother was, lucanis has to be. what illario does doesn't matter, because he will always be second best to caterina's memory of her favored daughter.
