What Remains of Edith Finch is a transformative work, and by transformative I mean since playing the game however many years ago It's impossible for me to not think about Lewis's story anytime I think too hard about working for the next rest of my life

the other thing opfl was really good at demonstrating was how much collateral damage the marines were causing to their own ranks, kizaru's beams and the pacifista's lasers, akainu's magma, all that ice being thrown around without any concern for the marines who might be in between them and the pirates they're aiming for.

meanwhile whitebeard held back so much throughout the beginning of marineford because even though his crew knew to get out of the way when he was going wild, he still wanted to minimize damage against his own forces, and it was only when he'd ordered them to retreat and put a chasm between his crew and the marines that he started bringing down the house

Got to watch Fan Letter finally and OH MY GOD

It was perfect

Everything about it was perfect and it had everything.

The animation? The story? Getting to see the experiences of normal people in the grand line?

IMMACULATE

Like I so so so hope they do more of these in the future. so much of my enjoyment of One Piece is less so the action and moreso the interaction and slice of life stuff and I forgot how great it could be

it's so funny to me that conservatives think the reason university students become more liberal is because of the actual course material and not like. the fact that universities in the US introduce are oftentimes the first place Americans are introduced to a walkable environment with affordable health care, with community spaces for any affiliation under the sun where they give you free resources and cheap food. with included public transit and opportunities for training in your field of choice. and you realize that for how much you're spending on tuition/taxes, yeah, you do deserve these things, it would be insane not to have those. and then you graduate and go back to having to buy a car to drive 20 minutes to the grocery store.

It sucks that there's only 20 minutes in each day. If there was more than that I would get more stuff done I'm sure

My newest song collaboration with Itoki Hana has been released.

Please watch the video. It was created by Bani-chan (who created UNDERTALE fan animations a long time ago) entirely by herself over a period of two years. I’m extremely proud of this.

Johnny Eck was a performer from the 1930s who was born without any legs:

He's primarily known for appearing in the 1932 cult classic Freaks directed by Tod Browning.

However what I'm mostly obsessed with is this account of a magic trick he did with his non-disabled twin brother (text under the cut)

Like this is the funniest thing I've ever heard. Can you imagine

Wikipedia screenshot:

"In 1937, Eck and Robert were recruited by the illusionist and hypnotist Rajah Raboid, for his "Miracles of 1937" show. In it they performed a magic feat that amazed audiences. Raboid performed the traditional sawing-a-man-in-half illusion, except with an unexpected twist. At first Robert would pretend to be a member of the audience and heckle the illusionist during his routine, resulting in Robert being called on stage to be sawed in half himself. During the illusion, Robert would then be switched with his twin brother Eck, who played the top half of his body, and a dwarf who played the bottom half, concealed in specially-built pant legs. After seeming to have been sawn off, the legs would suddenly get up and start running away, prompting Eck to jump off the table and start chasing them around the stage, screaming, "Come back!" "I want my legs back!" Sometimes he even chased the legs into the audience. The subsequent reaction was amazing – people would scream and sometimes even flee the theater in terror. As Eck described it, "The men were more frightened than the women – the women couldn't move because the men were walking across their laps, headed for the exit." The act provided the perfect jolt by frightening people at first but then caused just as much laughter and applause. The illusion would end with stage hands plucking up Eck and setting him atop "his" legs and then twirling him off-stage to be replaced by his twin Robert, who would then loudly threaten to sue Raboid and storm out of the theater. Their act was so popular that they played to packed audiences up and down the East Coast."
