Portfires add even more sorceryness! It's hard to see but you can almost make out my magical staff (an 18th century artillery portfire on a stick). Also shiny cannon for clout.
me (decorated in bloody runes): man why did we ever stop worshipping golden idols this shit rules
severed bullās head i carry with me for advice: if you mix sulfur, charcoal, and saltpeter together you will become a powerful sorcerer
#sounds suspiciously like gunpowder#hmmmmm#but the mixture for portfires is a little more sorcerer-y#because it includes potassium nitrate if i remember correctly#which fuels itself#so even water won't douse this 18th century flare#the only way to put out a portfire is to cut off the flame and let it run out of its fuel#thanks for teaching me this#Fort Ticonderoga#also the Artillery School at Fort No. 4#a new event this year#will feature a lecture on portfires!! for reenactors that is#reenacting#effervescent#Royal Artillery#1777

Day 1 of writing ultrakill: hehehe machine powered by blood!! Mankind is dead, gabriel wants to fuck that machine
Day ???? Of writing ultrakill: hell is alive. Hell is alive and we are the entertainment, marked by blood as the fuel. The terminals watch us: for they and we are ultimately whatās left of humanity. They are an archive of everything mankind has ever achieved and one of its last remaining idols. There is nothing left to consume but yourself. The loop will endlessly repeat until either entropy- or yourself finally, mercifully ends it. You and Gabriel are tools now without purpose and now you must find it. Through Gabriel are you able to reach peak performance, the penultimate version of yourself. Through V1 Gabriel is able to achieve a form of deliverance- ecstasy through a newfound freedom. This is a wretched, bloodied love story thatās alive with every player as its intestines and entrails- eating itself whole. By killing each other- you will destroy everything you have left. You must break the loop today or the loop will repeat tomorrow. Gabriel really wants to fuck that machine and V1 wants that angel BADLY
#brace yourself im having another ultrakill thought#I think loops and cannibalism are vastly undervalued when it comes to ultrakillās story#cannibalism in the way that V1 is consuming whatās left of itself- its own purpose to fight fueled by itself fueled by itself and so on.#which again ties into the theme of cycles#Gabriel in the way that the council had essentially āeatenā one of their own whole at the slightest sign of imperfection#and yet Gabriel is able to break a clear cycle#just as V1 is able to break hell out of its dying cycle of eternal punishment by just killing#am I. am I making sense#can you tell I fucking love the violence layer#also throw in something about lust renaissance / greed insurrections attempting (and succeeding in a way) to break the cycle of torment#ultrakill#rose talks#for my next trick I will write terminal X V1 completely unironically#analysis

looking at the empire preview for andor season 2 and i just know the bix/cassian shippers are going to become even more insufferable somehow
#insufferable because anything relating to bix/cassian is more fuel for them to hate on jyn#like thereās nothing wrong with the ship itself#i actually like them! particularly as first loves which is very much implied in their interactions#it just how certain people who ship them are also veeeery anti jyn#(obv iām somewhat biased on this matter but the anti jyn aspect that seems to come with bix/cassian is so weird to me)

42,000 people. 42,000 people with full lives and memories and family and a culture that is being erased. 42,000 people. My mind canāt even comprehend that number. Innocents. Infants. Thatās a larger number than people who live in my city.
42,000 people are dead. Israel is committing genocide. This is an ethnic cleansing. Itās not only been going on for a year but for A HUNDRED years.
Read āThe Ethnic Cleansing of Palestineā by Ilan Pappe, an Israeli historian. Learn the history. Educate yourself.
Call your representatives. Advocate for a ceasefire. Free Palestine. šµšøšµšø
#as a year since the start of a genocide that would take 42k lives has passed#Iām taking the time to read and learn more#and itās only fueled my grief and rage#I found out someone I called a friend for over two years#is denying that this is a genocide#and reblogging Islamophobic content#And saying that Israel is ājust defending itself.ā#which is a well-documented smoke screen for a 100-year long genocide#(again do your reading)#Iām disgusted that someone who calls themself a leftist would say that#we havenāt been friends in a while cuz they were very cruel to me and ppl I care abt#but this is still totally shaking me#42k people are dead.#but theyāre going around saying this isnāt a genocide#no one will see this I have no internet presence#but for the love of god please educate yourself on Israelās actions#many innocent people live there#they are not their government#but the government is committing an ethnic cleansing#and we canāt stop talking about it and we canāt deny it#idk where Iām going w this#the Palestinian people matter#their stories matter and their culture matters#their LIVES matter#the least we can do is continue to advocate for them and learn about them#and understand the genocide committed against them#because thatās what it is#a genocide#and we should call it that

@beatingheart-bride
In turn, Randall squeezed her hand back, as he drew in a deep breath. Despite his best efforts, clinging to the notion that his parents would at the very least be understanding once everything was laid out on the table for them, seeing that Emily really meant him no harm and that they truly were in love, there was no denying that growing cold pit in the bottom of his stomach, worsened only by her suggestion. A part of him sort of wanted to (however lamely) protest, instead suggest they save it for another day, and just enjoy themselves for now...
...he knew, in his heart, she was right. They would have to tell them at some point, and it was better to do it now rather than later; Randall had never been one keen to lie to his parents, and he knew the guilt of keeping such a massive secret from them would eat him up from the inside out. Thus, it was just better to get it out of the way-for both his and Emily's ease of mind.
"You're right," he sighed, as he brought her closer, wrapping his arm around her as he nodded, "They...they do deserve to know. I'll, uh...I'll give them a call in a little while, tell 'em when I'll be home, and that you'll be with me. We'll...we'll tell them together."
He punctuated this with another loving kiss, this one pressed to her cheek as he reassured her, "It'll be alright, Emily."

Never thought about this till now but I think I'll be irreperably damaged by Act III when we fight Gabe for the last time and the end rank score shows us Kills: 1 S
#.#..#...#....#.....#Nico al Habla#Ofc act three could go a completely different direction#Maybe it pulls a P-2 and makes us fight an entire hoard of enemies before reaching Gabriel#Making the kills score be all jumbled.Making his death just be one digit amongst all the others#Which would also mess me up#Something something 'Gabriel cant remember how many he'd killed. The machine that does him under cant differentiate him either'#Or maybe his death ends up being the end of the game itself and we get no score screen#Cuz. I am firm in my opinion that Ultrakill ends in V1's death#Mankind is dead. Blood is fuel. Hell is empty#And shit like that#Everyone dies. Except maybe heaven? But who knows maybe the machines find a way#Or the citizens up there are going insane as well#This game is making me insane#I take back what I said a month ago about it not taking over my JJBA fixation

i entertained the idea of pursuing graphic design as a career but didn't like neither a community college course i took or the 3-day workshop at a university in my nearest city at the time. but i get so gd riled about it that i'm like. what if i could change the system. i should be a graphic designer
#^ guy with no experience who is too overconfident and fueled by spite#i understand at least to some degree the bureaucracy that goes into shit like graphic design but. we as a society have to strive for better#corporate memphis will actually melt my brain one day mark my words#personal#oh also i'm gonna be real as hell the student loan debt i would have to take on for a career that i could not guarantee i would succeed at-#--entirely scared me off of the idea. which in itself is sad and i knew it at the time. but it makes me sadder now.

The song of death compells me so.
#Its lull is enticing and harmonic. beautiful melodies i can't deny the gorgeousness off#Still. the plane tugs at me. reminds me that i have unfinished business. that people still want my presence. dare i say. beg for it.#I am a unique person. unfortunately.#i provide what most others won't. what i offer only few others do too.#i know the amount of people that wish me dead outnumber the ones that want me alive. it's hard to cling onto few threads that dangle me.#i am rotting. i don't know when I'll grow. I've been stubborn for so long. i don't think i can grow out of my immaturity.#which is an immature thing to state of myself in and of itself.#I don't know how long i have left. i dont know if i should just try to burn everything i can in my body to make a#raging beautiful fire before i get snuffed. or if i try to cling on to the little resources i have to keep myself burning.#i doubt I'll find more fuel to burn. but we'll see. the future will come. tomorrow arrives. time marches as it always does. unrelenting.#negative#/negative

when i was a kid i hated the all american rejects and their song gives you hell that played on the radio because i thought there was a finite amount of swearing that you could do and i thought the reason kids werent allowed to swear is because if they were allowed theyd get all willy nilly with it and use up all the swearing. and i was mad at the all american rejects and their song gives you hell because i was like by the time im old enough to swear theres not gonna be any swearing left because these guys are using it all up every time they play this song and people sing along and i hated them for their selfishness.
#tag for when im talking#to be clear i thought swearing replenished itself but slowly. like fossil fuels or something.#i thought of it as a natural resource.#i dont know when i stopped thinking this but that song was on the radio when i was like 10 or 11 or maybe 12#which is sort of too old to be thinking of shit like that i think it was one of those things that you just wake up one day#and youre like why did i think that. that doesnt make any sense.

Ė ą¼ ą³āļ½”Ė angel girl
_._____ š f.reader
wc ::: drabble length sharinote ::: contains dumbification and some other stuff! unprotected sex as well as mirror sexā¦ also pet names (SLIGHT daddy kinkā¦ im so sorry) and overstimulation + squirting and maybs a little roughness. this isnāt proofread grrr :(
[porn no plot] just your boyfriend fucking you dumb and making you squirt š»
'dumb baby...' your boyfriend relentlessly fucked into you from behind ā his breath hot and fanning against you neck, fueling to the fire that was your arousal.
the mirror in front of you was just as foggy as your brain ā your eyes clouded, and rolled back as you babbled incoherently. 'mmm...' a soft groan fell bubbling from between your lips.
'you're drooling everywhere, sweet girl...ā your boyfriendās rough thrusts coming to a slow halt as his hands snaked around your body. āhereā¦ give daddy your chin, sweetheart.' his long slender fingers came crawling between the valley of your breasts and past your neck to firmly grip you cheeks.
'look at you, sweetheart. so, so pretty.' as he forced your face up and out of the sheets his lips met your own in a sloppy wet kiss ā one filled with passion and desire. once more, his hips forcefully slammed against your ass ā red from the friction as he buried himself deep within your sopping cunt.
'good girl...' his hand groped the swell of your breasts. as you were overwhelmed with pleasure, you could feel yourself slipping away. what youād assumed to be your third, maybe fourth orgasm crept up on you. 'aht aht...ā he tutted in your ear. āwant you to look... watch it, pretty girl.'
you could feel him roughly repositioning your face yet again to stare into your reflection.
he trailed kisses along your neck, chuckling warmly as he saw your eyes snap open in awe at the scene before you: your thighs littered in hickeys your lips puffy and swollen and your whole body quivering in absolute bliss.
'ah! s'too much... s'so deep!' you squirmed. he pressed on the bulge poking out from your lower abdomen. 'too deep? m'only right here... how about this?' harder. deeper. you suddenly hit the mattress, his grip on your waist faltering as he fucked into you with even more dedication... slamming you down and splitting you open for the umpteenth time on his cock... he continued bullying himself cozily into your cunt as he drilled further, and further within you velvety wet walls. āffuckā¦ always so tight arenāt you, baby?ā
'ahw fuck, fuck mh!' gasping, your fingers knotted up in the sheets as you moaned uncontrollablyā¦ back arching far into the bed before he lifted you up yet again ā his tip practically kissing your cervix.
āshit! w-waitā¦ā the knot in your stomach began to wrap itself up. waves of pleasure threatening to fall and crash over you if he continued ā which he did.
it only took a few more thrusts ā each drag of his cock soothing your high as youād finally came.
sharp thrust after sharp thrustā¦ you took note of how he carefully overstimulated you. harshly rubbing your clit even after your orgasm. āshit! a-alreadyā¦ fuckā¦ I already came.ā you pout, whining. āI know, just hold on, babyā¦ need one more thing from you.ā
āunghhh!ā the male had lifted you up once moreā¦ your reflection not your own as you appeared completely ruined. āhowās it feel hm?ā your sore core ached ā burning hot as you cried, leaning into his neck. ādonāt hide.ā
āfeels like im āgonna peeā¦ā you mumbled beneath your breath. he nodded. āgood girl, let go fāme.ā
another knot came forming in your tummyā¦
āw-wait! ohmygodohmygod..!ā and clear liquid shot from between you legs. drenching the sheets and you and your boyfriend's thighs.
the two of you breathed heavily collapsing onto one another as he kissed your forehead. āangel girlā¦ā he purred. ādid so good for me yeah?ā

Andrus Laansalu talked about making Disco Elysium at EKA (Estonian Academy of Arts)
"Initially, the church wasn't a focal point. There were certain characters that needed to visit this location, and I asked, "Seriously, what do we have in our church?" The others replied, "Nothing at all. Our church is completely bareājust a wheel, really. It's quite basic."
That's when I decided to unleash my creativity in the design. For example, they chose to install a glass structure at the top of the church to create a reflective surface. It was like placing an optical clock up there. Therefore, one of the most crucial aspects of designing the church was ensuring the lighting was just right to create the desired atmosphere."
"Let me show you an example of Baroque architecture, which is rich in detail. We're also designing the interior of the church based on large cathedrals. However, the foundation you use might not yield the expected results, because the church itself doesn't require such intricate details. Sometimes, it's about simplifying the design."
"I used Articy for the initial scriptwriting of Disco Elysium. The image only represents a tiny fraction of the text and choice variables involved. This system was also the reason I eventually abandoned the project after a year of outlining the script and shifted my focus to becoming a sound designer. My mind struggled to keep up with the dynamic graphic rules, but fortunately, a more talented writer took over afterward."
"In terms of sound design, it's essential to develop different layers to bring out the charm of the church as a cohesive space. Although this represents only a small portion of the overall design, each layer actually requires a significant amount of time to compose the whole....... Whenever there's a shift or a change due to the dialogue itself, you need to adjust the background sounds. Each time you modify the details in the dialogue, I have to refine the background audio, ensuring that these elements build upon each other like an intricate layer of work."
"It's funny how many scenes involve characters getting smacked in the face. My job was to recreate those, so I locked myself in the bathroom with a recorder and hit my forehead until it turned red.
As a sound designer, I really dig those unsettling, drill-like sounds. So, I mixed in creepy lectures, metal scraping, moans, and cries of painābecause I just love that stuff! (laughs)
Players will be moving through all kinds of areas, so it's super important to make the sound transitions feel natural, trying to create a more immersive vibe in certain spaces.
With all the scenes featuring big cranes, you can hear them from far away, and I wanted to capture that eerie ringing in your ears. That's going to be a thing throughout most of the game. I've found ways to really mess with players while they're playing!"
"I've come across a lot of old objects (like phones and radios) that I needed to perfectly replicate the sounds. I started to become a bit of a hoarder, buying up different models of old phones whenever I found one to add to my collection. The sound effects I can simulate from them are really impressive."
"Some of the devices don't actually exist in real lifeājust a mix of architecture and tech. When I need to create sound effects, I first look for something similar that exists in our world, then I try to simulate what the sound and appearance of that thing might have been like a century ago.
Towards the end of the game, there's a character carrying a fuel canister. We needed the sound of the canister, so we dug one up from our garageāit had been sitting there since it was five! I realized this would make the sound perfect. So, it had been there for 50 years, and after 40 years, it finally found its purpose.
In some places, I needed unique sound waves, and recreating them was a real headache until one day I happened to walk by a swimming pool and stumbled upon an old wartime torpedo. You can rotate the torpedo's probe, and it slowly rises up, like a proud zombie head. The sounds it made were exactly what I needed!"
šHow did you manage to get funding?
"Well, since we're in Estonia, you just need to know a wealthy person. You don't need five peopleājust two who can network, hang out together, and convince them to keep investing! (laughs) Back then, we constantly ran out of money and would tell them, 'Oops, looks like we spent it all! Can you invest a bit more?' That's how we made it through!"
šHow did you all come together to make the game?
"Luck. It usually doesn't happen this way, and that's the key difference. It has to be. If not, you couldn't create a game of this scale - well, I mean in terms of budget. But creatively, Estonia definitely has writers and artists who can pull it off. With such a small population, there are a lot of quirky folks who are good friends. We were really lucky, though - lots of fortunate circumstances came together. It brought the right people together, allowing those talented fools to collaborate with us. They had experience but hadn't tackled projects of this magnitude before. So yeah, luck is pretty important!"
