listening to malevolent and listening to Arthur and John attempting to physically assault each other and I can’t stop laughing because all I can think is just a dude punching himself in the face choking himself out like the Narrator from fight club in his boss’ office it’s so fucking funny lmao

I think that as a culture we’ve gotten way too comfortable pretending like celebrities are our friends. They’re not. That musician you like who is “so relatable” is not your friend. That actor on your favorite show is not your friend. You don’t know them and some of you need to learn really fast not to take fandom into someone else’s personal life. Learn to appreciate your favorite celebrity’s art while keeping in mind that they’re allowed to exist in this world without performing for you all the time.

I genuinely had to stop listening to malevolent ep 21 and take a break for a few days bc I couldn't believe that Arthur would just. tell the newly freshly seperated part of an eldritch god that totally used to be friends with him. I'm too used to jaded suspicious horror protagonists i can't deal with this overly trusting motherfucker

There's an EU initiative going on right now that essentially boils down to wanting to force videogame publishers with paid games and/or games with paid elements such as DLC, expansions and microtransactions to leave said games in a playable state after they end support, or in simpler terms, make them stop killing games.

A "playable state" would be something like an offline mode for previously always online titles, or the ability for people to host their own servers where reasonably possible just to name some examples.

I don't think I need to tell anyone that having something you paid for being taken from you is bad, which is a thing that routinely happens with live service and other always online games with a notable recent example being The Crew which is now permanently unplayable.

Any EU citizen is eligible to sign the initiative, but only once and if you mess up that's it. You can find it here. (https://citizens-initiative.europa.eu/initiatives/details/2024/000007_en)

Even if you're not European or you signed it already, you can share this initiative with anyone who is, even if they don't care about videogames specifically because this needs a million signatures and there is different thresholds that need to be met for each EU country for their votes to even count and could also be a precedent for other similar practices like when Sony removed a bunch of Discovery TV content people paid for.

@lammstrellicon informed me of another Gil-Galad origin theory, that might slowly be seeking its way up as my favorite, under my Andreth drawing, so here´s Gil, son of Aegnor and Andreth, my beloved half elven high king :)

On the topic of Malevolent, I'm 5 episodes in and what struck me is that it feels very much like a game. My first association was the demo level of a video game where the game helps you figure out the controls but later on it shifted and now it feels more like a ttrpg with you (through the lense of arthur) as the only player and with John as the gm. It strikes me in particular when John describes a scenery and then asks very pointedly, what will you do? And then arthur has to call the shots

I don't know if it was intentional but imo it's brilliant, bc it leaves me feeling like I should be able to do something, I know this setting and usually I'm the one calling the shots in a ttrpg but no, I'm just listening and dying inside bc John is either not genre savy enough or just desperate and is making all the dumb choices and why can't I tell the GM I want to NOT touch the scary dead lady again and ah yes fuck I'm listening to an audio medium ....

Anyway it makes you want to rip your hair out in frustration 10/10 would recommend
