i know it's just the tumblr UI being fucked up but my follower count keeps fluctuating heavily on all of my blogs and it gives me a weird sense of paranoia
I love the x-men so much because that's just what leftist infighting is like! that's literally all it is! xavier is a sellout and they all hate him but he's the only one with any money. everyone complains about "they keep switching sides and dating each other it's so fucking confusing" like my dudes have you never been a part of any socialist organisation, ever. then people will go "magneto is so strong how has he not killed a bunch of teenagers" HE DOESN'T WANT TO KILL THEM! this started in a goddam basement over coffee he does not want to hurt them he just wants them to shut up and listen and will fling cars to do so
honestly I hate βcan you pet the dog?!?β not for any of the common reasons but because it was initially interesting as a proposition of βcan you interact with the world in a way that is not within the primary mechanical loopβ and that very quickly fell away to being βwell now any indie developer making a game has to have a pet the dog button or theyβre going to get lettersβ
