hi im the op of that wc isat post through a sideblog…. you have my permission to dub that if you truly want to rjdjdjfjfjfj

aw HELL YEAH

whether i go through with it is up in the air (i currently cannot do voicework due to Circumstances) but if i do make it it'll be of the highest quality i can promise you that

[reasonsforhope]

If I can also offer some additional thoughts to strawberryraviegutz, and anyone else who's worried about the same things:

There's zero evidence for the "250 year/10 generations" rule or whatever they call it. It's been a popular theory for quite some time, but every post about it cherrypicks examples of nations in history that lasted around that long and ignores all the ones that lasted longer or survived by adapting over time.

Literally every doomer post about it is based on that same cherrypicking and contemporary trends you see on social media, not long-term realistic projections used in actual academic circles, where they employ real scientific and historical evidence. Evidence that doesn't round off the lifespans of nations to some arbitrary number.

Not that I'm trying to downplay any existing problems, just that what we're dealing with today is hardly anything apocalyptic. It's really important to remember that increased awareness of a problem does not correlate to an increase in scale of said problem.

Also, despite what you may hear, there haven't really been many true collapses of entire civilizations in history. When states in the past have collapsed- Rome, China, India, the Mongol Empire, Alexander the Great's Empire, etc.- the people living there don't just disappear. They survive and go on to build new states that grow, change and evolve from there. That's a form of continuity, not total destruction.

And just as there has never been a true utopia, there has also never been a true dystopia. A dystopia is a literary device, not a state of being. So long as people disagree with and oppose cruelty and tyranny in any form, as is human nature, a true dystopia is impossible.

Especially because a dictator will never outlive the people. No matter how they may want to pretend otherwise, their grip on power is only ever temporary. The power held by the people is eternal.

I've seen more tangible good done in the last ten years than I thought would be possible, and I don't see any reason to stop believing that'll be true.

So don't give up just because of a few social media posts from people who have no idea what they're talking about. Every generation has had people who say these things and they're always proven wrong, so it's not worth your time and energy to worry about it.

Be kind to yourself and to others, and remember the world is a better place with you in it. We have not reached the end of history, not by a long shot.

Thank you for sending this in, and agreed!

Trick Weekes: "I had Taash basically go through the DSM-5 listing symptoms in the scene after the Fangscorcher quest, but there are people who still think it's unclear or just a headcanon, so some folks are just never gonna get it, I guess." [source]

What bothers Tarvek most about the concept of Gilvek is his name component coming second, but more infuriatingly that Tarmesh doesn't sound as fashionable so he's stuck accepting the former.

And he's not even going to START about using the 'name X name' format, or pseudonym structure, instead of portmanteau. In this essay, he will--

SO REAL

no but that's 10000% accurate he's definitely fuming over the ship name he's just >:( over in the corner like FINE YES i love my boyfriend YES i like being shipped with him but WHY isnt MY NAME FIRST >:(
