#hypocrite warning

[240vo]

reading comments under anderson's seacats streams and seeing this is how most people were able to <read> it since most complain about being unable to focus and getting bored out of their mind makes my head explode

on one hand, streamer culture is what made most of us being unable to engage with material in the first place since it's far <easier> to give reigns to someone else. think mouthwashing or fear & hunger, where your own experience would matter more than above example yet initial struggle to engage with the work is way too off-putting to most (which is completely understandable! i'm not going to force anyone into a blind F&H run, knowing how badly can you mess up in 10 seconds flat, cough, learning about dogs the hard way)

...yet they still got to experience something they were unable to before, especially when horror is probably the most POPULAR genre for streaming/LPs since another presence in the form of streamer (who occasionally may even joke around) makes experience much less harrowing for average viewer. is it flawed? technically, yeah, except there are also silent commentary channels that work better but then you don't get to participate directly with the game's design (picking route choices) <- going back to visual novel format

anyway, all of this was inspired by the fact that anderson's deducing games once more floored me & i'm afraid most people won't even get to explore silly killer theories 😔

oh im gonna be SO annoying about bbh in a minute. i keep saying the same thing over and over again but his character is too fucking complex motherfucker is like:

"i'm a demon who is 11,000 years old and i refuse to acknowledge that im a demon nor that i do bad things (like steal furniture) but i will help people every chance i get despite saying im going to stop doing that and i am going to devote my life to protecting these fragile little eggs even though i know im going to lose them one day because i love them too much (and i know i can do that and it will one day be okay, because i have an immortal diamond to keep me company even if he isn't here now). when my friend throws himself beneath the spokewheel of the federation i will be there, bitter about my loss, but i will not start a revolution until he proves he deserves one. i will do what i can to safeguard his system against corruption because i am afraid the federation will use him to hurt us. i know he doesn't want to hurt us. he keeps hurting me. he is isolated by our distrust in him and he is still working hard to try to be a good person in an inherently corrupt system that cannot be fixed so i will build him a statue. i will not kill him when he takes a picture of me in the presidential chair (that was almost mine) and puts it on his wall and calls me 'employee of the month.' i didn't do all of that work for the federation i did it for him like i do it for others because they are my friends. i will exhaust every option i have to build a reason to NOT start a revolution. to not kill him. because i have to say that i tried. i feel like i have made so many compromises. i have held myself back to try to find reason. i will still remove his access to my base. when the island turns against me and he locks me in a cage for a crime i did not commit, i will remove everyone's access (except for my family the french and my family the eggs). i am having fun. when the eggs appear the next day with cracks and dirty shells i will worry, but i know they're strong. they'll be okay. (when i find my son's secret lab and his unethical experiments that cause him harm i will be proud because he has done what i do. he has helped. i want him to be safe but we are never safe and i trust him more than anyone else. i know now, and i can help him be safe.) when the eggs go missing i will be silent. i will look for them, and i will destroy for them, and i will bargain for them, and i will cry for them, and i will not accept their loss. when my friend who is president who once built a safehouse that saved my eggs' lives is finally damaged by the federation (like i knew he would be when he became president) and he starts to hurt people by pushing the same treatment onto them i will not be surprised. i will be surprised when he tries to marry me. i will not blame him (much) when he tries to kill me. our children are missing. he is forced to pretend that his is not. i wish i could too. i will not tell him yes or no because i need an open avenue to manipulate him (because to save him i will have to manipulate him). i will not marry him because he is out of his mind. i have said marriage is overrated. i have also said that i want to live with him in a house with our kids and my skeppy. when he tells me that he wants to be happy with me i will still say 'aw' because it is the most genuine thing he has said to me and i miss my friend. i will still try to kill him. i fail to kill him with someone else's plan. i don't place a block to lock him in place. i hesitate. it doesn't matter if it's on purpose because the next plan works. i will reveal an item that could destroy me to my closest allies (and tubbo) because it will let us save him. we save him. when he kills himself 18 times over i back away from the explosion in surprise and then step close again. while i have grieved i have thrown myself into mines. it doesn't matter. i am numb and want to feel something. everything has lost colour. we save him.

i visit federation workers and ask them about my eggs and they do not tell me anything. i know they are lying. i visit the graveyard to talk to my lost eggs. i have lost all of the eggs. i do not know how to save them. i lay in the mud. it rains and rain signifies the monster has returned to kill my children but my children are not here and so i do not care. when i go home i will become so angry and i will go down to my basement (which i have locked like my friend locked the entrance to his greatest fantasy. we are so alike and our delusions are different. he child was real; here is the secret to finding my children) where i have locked a federation worker away. i will not wash away the blood stains.

i am also part-time grim reaper and i only ever dress up in robes to make people drink more water."

I know why people think sfw v/ore isn't a thing. I get it. Does it make me Woefully sad? Also yes. But I Get it.

I want to make sure people know it's like cuddling. Some people get horny when they cuddle, and some just feel safe and happy. It fits the term 'extreme cuddling' pretty well - it really depends on the person. I, personally, am both. It depends on my mental state.

But outright denying the existence of sfw vore is really annoying - do u know what it's like to have someone say what you're doing is 100% sexual, no matter what *you* think, say or feel? It's invasive and disrespectful for literally anything, including vore.

Be civil. Be kind. Respect other people's feelings and boundaries.

Please only interact if you're 18+ and your blog is sfw. Thank you.

When we get the Rayllum reconciliation, I need both of them to apologize. Yes, Rayla left and in a really bad way, but Callum messed up, too. He kept trying to get her to move on because he knows she deserves to be okay, but refused to read all the signs she gave. They both messed up and hurt each other, and you can't be mad at one of them without being mad at the other no matter how few or how many details you have about the situation.

Hot fucking take

you should listen to your wife's criticisms and ACTUALLY do better

NOT put her down for whatever she says and ignoring her

You should listen to you children's criticisms and ACTUALLY do better

NOT put them down for being children and ignoring them

Why aren't the left talking about the Yazidi people, women and girls in specific, who are being actively kidnapped, raped and murdered for not converting to islam? Why only eyes on one part of the world which is Palestine? Don't these people matter as much too? Or are you too afraid to speak up about the crimes of Islam?

As You Judge, So Shall You Be Judged

1 “Stop judging, that you may not be judged. 2 For as you judge, so will you be judged, and the measure with which you measure will be measured out to you. 3 Why do you notice the splinter in your brother’s eye, but do not perceive the wooden beam in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me remove that splinter from your eye,’ while the wooden beam is in your eye? 5 You hypocrite, remove the wooden beam from your eye first; then you will see clearly to remove the splinter from your brother’s eye.

Pearls Before Swine

6 “Do not give what is holy to dogs, or throw your pearls before swine, lest they trample them underfoot, and turn and tear you to pieces.

The Answer to Prayers

7 “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks, receives; and the one who seeks, finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. 9 Which one of you would hand his son a stone when he asks for a loaf of bread, 10 or a snake when he asks for a fish? 11 If you then, who are wicked, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good things to those who ask him.

The Golden Rule

12 “Do to others whatever you would have them do to you. This is the law and the prophets.

The Narrow Gate

13 “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road broad that leads to destruction, and those who enter through it are many. 14 How narrow the gate and constricted the road that leads to life. And those who find it are few.

False Prophets

15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but underneath are ravenous wolves. 16 By their fruits you will know them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 Just so, every good tree bears good fruit, and a rotten tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a rotten tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 So by their fruits you will know them.

The True Disciple

21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name? Did we not drive out demons in your name? Did we not do mighty deeds in your name?’ 23 Then I will declare to them solemnly, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you evildoers.’

The Two Foundations

24 “Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. 25 The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock. 26 And everyone who listens to these words of mine but does not act on them will be like a fool who built his house on sand. 27 The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. And it collapsed and was completely ruined.”

28 When Jesus finished these words, the crowds were astonished at his teaching, 29 for he taught them as one having authority, and not as their scribes. — Matthew 7 | New American Bible Revised Edition (NABRE) New American Bible, Revised Edition © 2010, 1991, 1986, 1970 Confraternity of Christian Doctrine, Inc.

Santa and/or ranmaru with 4, 10, 25 for the ask game ✨

Spoilers for 999

4. If you could put this character in any other media, be it a book, a movie, anything, what would you put them in? Santa

I've thought about it for some time and honestly I'd really like for him to be in Zero escape Virtue's last reward lol. It's not exactly different so it's prabably cheating but come on! Santa was helping Akane with scheme this grand in 999, maybe even he was the one who did everything because she was being dead (depending on interpretations), but he's not even present in the sequels? I crave closure wiht him. He drove away in the end of 999 and that's it?

Also, my little ponies for healing. I think he deserves to just have fun and be a pony

4. Ranmaru

So originally I wanted to use my little ponies for Ranmaru because he clearly needs friends. He's not entirelly hopeless in communication so if he has enough positive experience he'll maybe have better outlook on life and he'll find his purpose. I can imagine him not having cutie mark initially and being really moody about it so Sara and Joe decide to help him.

As a second option, Winx! To be honest, it's more me having plans for yttd and Winx crossover so I'm still kinda interested in it. There Ranmaru and other dummies were supposed to play the role of pixies. Well, kinda because they were connected to their partner. The rule of killing partner still applied and thus the dummy would return their "humanity" (which they also would return by sacrificing themselves and earning enchantix but Midori the Darkar never mentioned that part). If we're talking about canon Winx, I think Ranmaru would make an interesting mage/specialist character who's gloomy but can develop and eventually with gained power of friendship finally living happily.

10. Could you be best friends with this character? Santa

Maybe not best friends, but I could see us as friends. I don't really know how much of his personality in 999 was a facade and how much was genuine (though I suppose he didn't fake absolutelly everything). I think he could be caring and kind if I reminded him of Akane. And even if it'd be draining for me to be around someone this agressive, maybe we'd get along. I like old siblings that care about young siblings by default. Not as best friends though.

10. Ranmaru

Once again, not really best friends but we could be friends. He's a bit negative and cynical, but he can also be inspiring and determined. I'm irked by his obsessiveness with Sara and I wouldn't want same for me. On the other hand, it was partially influenced by the fact he died and wanted to feel all those moments of friendship he never had being alive. So maybe we could be friends and eventually he'd become happier? I don't know what we could do together and like I'm introverted too so I don't know if Ranmaru'd want to befriend me.

25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now? Santa

At first I thought he was twink with the attitude and agressiveness so it's better to not anger him but he could be helpful. I didn't exactly like or dislike him, I think it was more of a positive impression

At the end, I like him and I really wish there was more. I have one small problem with the ending because our kidnappers just leave without explaination and while Akane showed up later in sequels he never did. It was supposed to be this way I guess... But I really like how he was way smarter and more complex than I expected, that he was part of this elaborate scheme to save his sister, that he cares so much for his sister. I love tragic siblings

25 Ranmaru

At first I didn't understand all the hype about him because he was the most popular dummy and I thought he looked boring

Now he's still more on the neutral side in my grading system and he's not character I think about often but I acknowledge that he's a complex character. I think I was really irked by his logic route betrayal so I can be a bit biased against him: like Yabusame tries to reassure him, then all group members agree to subject themselves to pain to save him and the thanks they get? He murders a Yabusame and plans to continue the same with the rest. I understand that he's under pressure and he's dead and he doesn't want to kill Sara but like... These people saved (or tried to save) his life. He can be self-sacrificial to the absurd degree too when he tries to download Joe AI in his body in emotion route, basically commiting suicide, which is less morally bad so he's not absolutely irredeemable scum but that logic route kill makes me like him less as it stands

[reallynotwelcomed]

The answer.... the answer was to wait.

.......I'm killing someone after this

[melancholic-pigeon]

Okay this is the *actual* last comment, for real, but I just found out Spider is now smearing me as a convert and accusing me of being involved with drama I was not involved with because he mistakenly attributed my apologies for his public temper tantrum as being about something unrelated.

THIS IS A FALSE ACCUSATION and I do not appreciate having yet another bit of fake malicious intent falsely ascribed to my actions and* attributing a completely unrelated attack to me.

Also, it's very sad and disappointing whenever a Jew gets mad at a convert because something else is going on in the Jew's life and the convert happens to be in the splash zone and the Jew falls over backwards to smear the convert and invalidate her faith.

Just....the childish aggression is making me so, so sad and disappointed, from someone I used to think very highly of, who is now lying about me and publicly smearing me with false accusations based on a conflict he started because he misinterpreted something I said and I went out of my way to give him the benefit of the doubt when trying to clear up the mistake HE MADE that led him to decide bullying and attacking me for three fucking days was appropriate and okay and that I'm the bad guy for saying it's wildly unprofessional to behave like this in public to a former customer face.

Sorry, but facts, reality, linear time and the truth of what I actually said and did are on my side here, and I will not stand for being smeared and attacked and shat all over because I had the gall to try to kindly resolve his uncalled for, unjustified temper tantrum.

I am also not sorry that I left a side note in the tags that it was also unacceptable for HIM to drag his daughter into a stupid internet slapfight based on his own reading comprehension failure. Because it was and is unacceptable, and she needs to hear that message from someone.

End of story. Keep digging that hole as long as you like, Spider. It's not helping your case and is continuing to make you look progressively worse and more unreasonable, and the only person you have to blame is yourself.

*revised for clarity

[heartshapedcreaturefromcriptoon]

...I'm sorry?

Like, what the fuck did I have to say in my notes about some Lily Orchard 2.0 grossly mischaracterizing Al as a Tumblr Sexyman TM, that a failed "gif maker" just crawled out of the woodwork to give me a ~"3/10"~ on before she proceeded to get Alastor's own name wrong?

Like, what the fuck these bitches booing us for? Apparently being entirely right all along according to goddamn fucking Wikipedia? Fuck off.

(Yes, now that I'm looking at my notes again I realized I fudged my on spelling but you know what? "Comspred" instead of "compared" because you know a brony comparing Alastor to The O*nce-Slur got me seeing red ...Because we know that if any male character in the show actually deserves that, it's Lucifer... "Ahobia" instead "acephobia" because you know whoever would compare Alastor to The O*nce-Slur is afraid of all the actually asexual hoes who actually know what they like, and Al would take The O*nce-Sl*r comparison as an insult because of the fact that he actually has canonical bitches who like him, while all of The O*nce-Sl*r's b*nches I'm pretty sure originally had to be as non-canonical and fabricated out the thin fucking blue air as Chrysanthemum Pearl... And that's a little Actual Sneak Peak into my 'Tumblr Sexyman Bechal Test' for ya' ...)

Like, at least I still didn't get Alastor's name wrong, so it's just like ...

Now how's that for using my gifs correctly, huh? And at least this one actually goddamn fucking moves...
