A devastating and confusing thing about the Fallout setting, when you explore the pre-war aspects, is what the creators think about pre-war America. In the first games we only get hints of the pre-war world, but they seem to be some sort of wild fascist nation invading Canada. In Fallout 1, the first thing we're introduced to of the pre-war society is seeing a soldier shoot civilians and laughing.
Now, for the first 2 games and New Vegas we don't really know much. What we know is that there's a fascist military group known as the enclave who were a sort of US deep state even before the war, and that the government teamed up with corporate interests to preform vaguely MKULTRA-ish experiments with the Vaults. Basically, the government was an extreme version of the 50s American jingoism and McCarthyism.
This is well and dandy, I guess issues come up more when we get to the later games, especially 4, where it seems like none of this extreme plotting and societal civil unrest which would exist is seen. The society as presented in 4 also seems quite progressive, gay people are featured in the opening, and none of the baggage of say, civil rights not existing are included. Now on a baseline, I don't want settings to be more conservative, homophobic and sexist etc., but it becomes a very confusing setting when it's displayed both as this jingoist extreme thing with fascist tendencies aswell as a progressive place where everyone is seemingly equal. If you're focusing on the 50s as your setting, and American nationalism in the 50s, then you can't have McCarthyism spoofs and anti-communism as a societal paranoia norm while also general equality is the norm without misunderstanding why McCarthyism and nationalist jingoism is bad. A massive harm done in anti-communist paranoia is how it degrades and vilifies any progressive movements (women's rights, civil rights, homosexuality) as being morally un-American and therefore connected to communism. To ignore this just makes any critique of MacCarthyism and jingoism weird!
Basically, pre-war America in Fallout 4 becomes this both sides thing where America is both pure and equal and white fences in every instance that we see as the player (the intro), while also supposedly being this dystopic MacCarthyist hellscape that's broadcasting gladly about their war crimes in Canada, and wants to root out communism. I guess the only fix for this issue without getting into the fine print like they had to do is just not to focus too much on the pre-war world.
#fallout#fallout 1#fallout 2#fallout 3#fallout 4#fallout new vegas#fo1#fo2#fonv#fo4#I'm almost half-way through the show#it suffers from this too but whatever I'm just going to count it as it's own thing#it gets a pass or whatever. telling a video game story and telling a tv-series is completely different#they can do what they think is useful.#We see a bit of what the I'm talking about in New Vegas with mr house being able to be that rich etc#but new vegas cares more about the fallout of Fallout 2 + new ideas than some pre-war America. The most we get is like Poseidon energy and#Raul. but Raul doesn't really care that much about the details of the past world#his life seems pretty normal. it's not that important.#dead money and owb did this like... Okay. wasn't too bad it was fine. I don't like those DLCs too much. Dean Domino is whatever

So anyway you repeatedly say we only feel corn husks and similar inedible parts to cattle but Never add a source to back it up. Having worked on farms I’m afraid for the most part the feeds I’ve seen have been parts entirely edible to humans. And like fuck man 5% of all grown soy is fed to humans or however the stat goes, do you really think the remaining 95% is inedible? really?
Anyway yeah I’m asking for a source here cause I don’t want to add this on to months old post
Ingredients such as “grain by-products” are referring to the husks, stalks, and other “green” parts of the plant that we humans don’t actually have the digestive capabilities to eat. The breakdown of most livestock feeds looks like the above when you actually take a look at it.
Different cattle feed, similar ingredients. Still primarily things that, and I have to stress this, you cannot eat. This one is slightly higher in quality and does indeed have actual grain products included. Some of those are edible to humans. Some are not. Generally cattle are fed cattle cubes with supplemental mineral licks and hay. Some also supplement with whole corn, but I can gladly assure you that corn is not in short supply and even if all the corn sold to animal feed was donated to the poor, you can’t actually live off of corn because there’s very little nutrition in it. Hence why in both human and animal food it’s typically seen as a filler ingredient. Keeps the mouth busy with a meal without making your stomach feel full and you end up eating more without feeling satisfied.
Soybeans are really only often used in feed for pigs because they’re a great source of protein for these animals. I would state that soy is also a terrible option to use as an emergency food for humans in need because while, yes, it is indeed a healthy bean, it’s also one of the top eight foods that humans are frequently allergic or intolerant towards. I’d also ask you for whether your 5% of all grown soy statistic is referring to the beans or the entire plant because yeah the beans are the edible part. The rest of the plant isn't especially healthy for humans to eat. I would say the beans are around 5% of a mature soy plant sure.
#No offense anon but when you come here with ACTUALLY MOST OF WHAT FARM COWS EAT IS HUMAN FOOD and bring up SOY in the discussion of COWS#I somewhat doubt you actually have much experience farming#because no actually cattle benefit from the green parts of the plant more than the bean parts in most cases#corn is used as a cheap supplemental feed because it’s cheap and it’s cheap because there’s so so SO much of it#And corn isn’t grown in special livestock only plantations when it’s used as feed as opposed to human food either#corn is grown en masse and processed and then sold to various companies which use the corn for various things#if animal feed companies stopped buying corn and that corn was instead bought by human food companies#that doesn’t mean corn would be any more or less accessible to the hungry#because it would go to grocery stores and TV dinner companies and sauce companies and soda companies and so on#and it would still be sold same as always#world hungerTM isn’t caused because people can’t afford corn#corn is dirt cheap and most people can afford it#it’s just barely a step above eating sand and you can’t live off of it#I’ve gone a few days only eating corn products because they were cheap#and shocking no one I had no energy and felt just as hungry after each bowl as I had before the last#people cannot survive off of that#giving corn to livestock isn’t taking away any resource of value from humans#sorry it just isn’t

i post abt this regularly but children should not be actors im so serious we do not need nor deserve stories that hire children to perform any amount of labor that also exposes them to the vile industry that is the media and all of its horrifying pedophilic roots and wider audience access. idc how moving or artistic it is, you do not need a movie that has a 9 year old reading emotionally demanding lines that effectively end their innocence to learn. like full stop they just shouldn’t be hiring children to do ANYTHING but i cannot fathom why ANYONE thinks we absolutely must have children on tv and in movies. “for realism” “for art” “for other children to enjoy as an audience” idc!!!!! it’s child labor. it’s emotionally demanding and it’s abusive. it’s never not been abusive. so how about we just dont fucking do that and you ask yourself why you think we as a society “need” children to perform for us in ANY capacity
#read baby peggy’s books pls#the history of child actors on stage has been pedophilic from the start. exploitative disgusting awful#there is no industry in which a child should be EMPLOYED wtf is wrong with everyone#bring the same energy to film and tv that you do when u rightly criticize youtube child stars#they cannot fucking consent to labor what is WRONG WITH EVERYONE#not only labor but fame and exposure to and access to them given to THE WHOLE WORLD

"Ship Wars = Ya'll are F*nig stupid."
#reylo#zutara#Make Love Not War#there are literally children starving to death or getting blown up in some war right now and ya'll are fighting over a fictional TV Show#if people put half as much energy into fighting for war torn countries as they do fictional shows the world would be a better place#instead they are making entire blogs dedicated to being an anti of the ship they hate like damn... how much do you hate yourself?

Cookie run has me in such a steven universe-esque chokehold ughhhh
#like every time that I stop caring they release a new update with cool characters and pretty environment art lmfao#I’m not into steven universe but that was like 90% of the reason I was when I did like iy#it*#cookie run has the monopoly on charcter design by comparison tho it’s not even a contest#steven universe & cookie run 🤝 having crazy gorgeous environment art + fun character design (cookie run wins on that tho) +#absurd concepts with surprisingly deep stories/lore#OKAY WAIT THAT REMINDS ME— I am soooo convinced that cookie run would’ve made a fantastic kids tv show LMFAO#all the characters and the humour mixed with dark themes and the storyline and the beautiful art would have worked so well for it#also the cool fun concept of anthropomorphized food fits so well into the world of cartoons… I could imagine it being one of those shows-#that is so fun to watch as a kid and later brings up nostalgia like care bears or something lmao#or the (90s) smurfs or something#or mlp? idk#like the chameleon character really made me realize how perfect some of it would be for that#I feel like it would be annoying af if it had the energy & style of modern cartoons tho my mental image of it is super specific lmfao#its so embarrassing to say that but I hope someone out there sees my vision#cookie run kingdom#cookie run#me talking#crk#beast yeast

rewatching ben whishaw's richard ii and yea i think the biggest difference between his and the rsc version is that he plays richard's flippancy/disregard for other people's lives completely straight and in a kind of sinister way while david plays it for humor
#shoutout to the scene with dt's richard and gaunt because it's so FUCKING funny dwhgjkflkjwjlw#it's like that one twelve scene in dw where he's reading clara's flashcards for social interaction#and he's like 'uh i'm sorry for the death of your friend slash family member slash pet'. Same energy#ricky 2#ws#in terms of 'what's more fun for me to watch' i like david better but both are v good ways to play the character imo#one emphasizes the dislikability and the other emphasizes the hubris#although i don't think playing richard's character for humor would work as well without an audience to bounce it off of#one of the weakest parts of david's 2009 film hamlet is that (now that i've listened to an audio clip of the stage recording)#the hamlet w rosencrantz/guildenstern bit in act 2 scene 2 is filled with too much dead air where the live audience would normally laugh#and like hamlet Is meant to be more Funny as a play in a way richard ii is not so it's not like. dealbreaking or anything#but i am so grateful that the rsc richard ii is a stage recording rather than. made for tv bc i can imagine a world#where tv dt richard ii would have a bunch of scenes like the hamlet/ros/guil scene where it would drag more than it needed to#so like while i do slightly prefer the rsc version both versions are ultimately best suited to their respective mediums#also rory kinnear plays henry a lot more human and sympathetic than nigel lindsay does#which means that while he is much much much more entertaining to watch#i do feel like the wider theme of the fragility and sheer ridiculousness of the monarchy as a concept comes thru better in the rsc version#as well as (perhaps accidentally..) satirizing the english nationalistic sentiment expressed by a bunch of the characters#but then again i don't think that's what hollow crown was shooting for they wanted to do a grounded drama and they did a grounded drama

i love yall i love the anons but i need you guys to be like a little bit more patient when it comes to my response time. i do in fact have a job that i sometimes need to actually do work for, plus it's big brother season and that is a 24 hour a day 7 days a week obsession until october or everyone i like gets evicted whichever comes first and also i did in fact have covid + no working shower for a hot minute there. love the asks, love the anons, but this is a series i read for fun and analyze for fun, i don't get paid to do this and i also have like, other obsessions.
#i'm sorry i realize the crossover between reality tv and asoiaf is very minimal and none of you understand just how serious bb time is#but imagine the energy of a big sporting event like the olympics the world cup whatever. but make it 24/7 for 90 days straight#also again i had covid and a fever i couldn't shake for like a week#some of the replies and anons have been a little annoying the last couple weeks and i'd like it to chill a little#getting on my soap box

mike but hes a 21 year old stoner tired of putting on facades
#td mike#mike td#nat.tiff#mikesys#micycle#cw weed#after all his lore he tried to hide got exposed on international tv he just. stopped caring and now they can freely explore their identity#mike put so much energy into masking being a system AND repressing his delinquent tendencies. so when being a system AND his juvie sentence#got exposed on tv it was like the 200 ton weight tied to mikes ankle suddenly. disappeared#not only his alters are now free to be themselves without mike control freaking over them. mike can also find his own place in the world.#not as a 'nice and normal guy' but as mike#sorry for writing an entire essay in the tags under my funny bong drawing#but also im not sorry this is my post i can flood its tags however i want#fun fact! i doodled this after seeing some deviantart version of older!mike looking like a normie like thats not mike thats a man named john

Saw certain tweets and here once again a reminder which a twt mutual luckily wrote shorter than I could (plus public so I can rb bc no way I do that myself on that site)
Also
And if you want smth I wrote myself which is longer and not just abt that here you go
#a wild lux appears#I think they're one mutual who is fine w being screenshotted ik some don't want that#I wrote that bsky thing while waiting for food. Reg the fellow person I talk abt don't bash ppl that already spoke up and stop for a bit#To rb more later. Or ppl that still go to work bc they can't afford not to bc the thing by these actions is community isn't there as net#Or like anyone that shows they care and didn't do anything harmful and just take recharge time or so#Educate willing(!) ppl nicely and don't bash them or send a internet mob to them etc#The ones posting they still go to/buy boycott stuff yeah they're awful but what does bashing them bring at the end of the day#Don't support those ppl yeah but them posting that shows how much they care for it. They prob just want cloud which you give them.#Pressure ppl in power in a way they can't ignore focus on that not no name individuals#If ppl you know talk in private and if they don't want to change literally just cut them out of your life if possible#Online just block. Don't argue w people that just want to stir smth up etc etc#Also I don't think it's too productive to be mad when a standard user anywhere doesn't share stuff. Like yeah give them info abt that but#some either just do smth offline (in that case maybe tell them in this case just sharing online is also helpful) or are mentally too done#and focus all energy to survive (which is intended by the ppl in power. make ppl so done they only have energy to survive themselves so they#don't have energy to speak up abt problems in the world). Bashing famous ppl is completely different bc backlash actually brings smth there.#More ppl could do more if strike organizations would include community care so more actually could not go to work/shopping#Also reg protests so they should know do you know how many don't watch news anymore (I don't watch tv since many years)#I'm sure some also just can't esp younger ppl if they're parents monitor their socials and are zionists#Ofc speak up. I'm just here to say there are explanations. If they read things and still don't care unfollow/block/mute/idc or if you know#Them talk and explain how if is important they speak up#This has been going on for a good while now idk how many still don't know I am mostly pointing that out for new or not as much shared things#Tho I'm sure many don't know bc the standard response is the gov knows what he does and they do propaganda#They think surely the gov takes care of that. If they shut down convos reg that then that is dangerous denialism and living in escapism n#All. Not if the ppl who follow this need a break w fiction or so. I am sure the ppl you try to reach w bashing already muted/blocked all#accs and words associated w that#Anyways I gotta shower now. Disclaimer my personal opinion be an asshole and it's block on sight yada yada.#I just woke up I'm hungry I need to shower but that is also when I decide to share my pieces so

google how do i enjoy smoking weed again. Google how do I go back in time to mend that which was broken
#the craziest switch up you will ever see in your life is me one year ago smoking daily to me now smoking like. once or twice a month#it's scary bc it's like i can't smoke anymore. i get racing thoughts real bad and instead of vegging out i feel guilty about being “lazy”#which sucks bc now that i work full time something that could turn my brain off after work would be SO helpful#and i miss being so effortlessly awed by what i consumed while high. tv music food whatever#I'll never get that back again. or maybe i will. who fckn knows!#anyway if I'm on tumblr less now it's cuz I've been “welcome to the real world sucker'd” and never have the energy to be here anymore#if u need me im playin mobile solitaire and listening to an episode of frasier

It's always so funny when they dub an animated kid's show from UK English to US English/visa versa. God forbid the children are exposed to ... *shuffles papers* ... different accents.
#I just found out about some peppa pig lost media that was just a US dub and otherwise exactly the same#and its just like. whhhyy??? the show was already... in english...#Maybe it's just because my parents watched a lot of BBC/British TV when I was a kid but a kid's show set in the UK would not bother me .#But also that age group's cartoons are sometimes deliberately set in different cultures Anyways. so children can . yknow. Learn#Like. Dora and Sagwa the chinese siamese cat. And I half-remember an animated show that was just folk tales from around the world I think?#So I'm just befuddled that someone would Spend Time And Energy and MONEY on Dubbing English To A Slightly Different English

haven't posted in the st fandom for a hot minute, but if you genuinely think they're gonna recast Noah at this point you might need to go back and develop some critical thinking skills
#Yes he's a shit person#Yes he DESERVES to lose this job and the money and platform that comes with it#But that isn't going to fucking happen#We're 4 seasons in to the biggest on-going tv show in the world right now#There's only 1 (ALREADY GREENLIT) season left#He is literally the MAIN CHARACTER#Yes it sucks and I don't wanna look at him either#But that's the reality of the situation#If you want to make a difference then join the targeted boycotts#Donate what you can#Put your energy towards actually STOPPING THE GENOCIDE#instead of getting a 19 year old fired from a fucking television show
