finally playing dh:doto and i mean. having fun. love that daud looks terrible. but the tonal… idk inconsistency isnt the right word. okay rephrasing. trying to have a game with the same vibes as dh1 and dh2 (and the daud dlcs) but not having it take place in a time of major political upheaval makes all the previous games feel like. what was the point here. because if there are still draconian security measures in use and catastrophic infrastructure breakdowns even when things are “better” (and like, dh2 did try to qualify it as marginally better and critique empire. it also failed. but that’s a different post.) then why did we care if burrows or delilah were running things? and with the problem of doto being ‘outsider bad’ instead of ‘fascist coup’ theres a huge gulf between the problems billie actually sees compared to the problem shes trying to solve. which in turn cheapens the environmental storytelling dh is usually so good at by making the small scale tragedies she sees feel pointless. and it would be one thing if you could interpret billie as totally apathetic (i dont think she is but that aside) but the game has her explicitly comment on things like the eyeless draining people of their blood for aristocrats like! doto suffers even more pronouncedly from the problems of dh2 except almost worse because both billie and daud feel like characters who should know better than the game tells us they do while emily can at least be interpreted as blinded by privilege. which sucks because like i love billie! I want to spend time with her! and im having fun! but a daud billie dlc could have been soooo crazy and it instead… isn’t.
#gabby.txt#dishonored#<- for reference purposes#and i do like getting rid of the chaos system for billie and the contracts etc. it’s the overarching themes that are… muddied. in a bad way

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again
#yeehaw#1k#5k#10k#posts that got cursed. blasted. im making these tag updates after... 19 hours?#also i have been told it should say speech loss bc nonverbal specifically refers to the permanent state. did not know that!#unfortunately i fear it is so far past containment that even if i edited it now it would do very little. but noted for future reference#edit 2: nvm enough ppl have come to rb it from me directly that i changed the wording a bit. hopefully this makes sense#also. in case anyone is curious. though i doubt anyone who is commenting these things will check the original tags#1) my friend did not do this on purpose in any way. it was not intended to distract me or to hit on me. im a lesbian hes a gay man. cmon now#he felt very bad about it afterwards. i thought it was hilarious but it was very embarrassed and apologetic#2) “why didn't he use 🫵🏼?” didn't exist yet. “why didn't he use 🆗?” dunno! we'd been using a lot of hand emojis. 👌🏼 is an ok sign#like it makes sense. it was just a silly mixup. also No i did not invent 👉🏼👌🏼 as a gesture meaning sex. do you live under a rock#3) nonspeaking episodes are a recurring thing in my life and have been since i was born. this is not a quirky one-time thing#it is a pervasive issue that is very frustrating to both myself and the people i am trying to communicate with. in which trying to speak is#extremely distressing and causes very genuine anguish. this post is not me making light of it it's just a funny thing that happened once#it's no different than if i post about a funny thing that happened in conjunction w a physical disability. it's just me talking abt my life#i don't mind character tags tho. those can be entertaining. i don't know what any of you are talking about#Except the ppl who have said this is pego/ryu or wang/xian. those people i understand and respect#if you use it as a writing prompt that's fine but send it to me. i want to see it#aaaand i think that's it. everyday im tempted to turn off rbs on it. it hasn't even been a week

i think "many queer people are purposefully deprived of regular IRL social interaction with other people, both queer and not, by our society" and "lots of queer discourse on the internet would be rendered irrelevant if the people engaging in it were regularly interacting with other queer people in real life rather than online" are two statements that can and shouls coexist
#spinning my web#im being vague about what discourses im referring to on purpose btw. bc it applies in many cases#before anyone tries to read too much into it

We're going on an ass kicking adventure.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#Yes indeed this is a reference to the classic 'Kirby's fucking pissed' meme. It felt fitting given the circumstances.#Wei Wuxian is nothing but a villain now. His name is but a booeyman and scapegoat for everything that goes wrong.#It is a cruel and unusual punishment to be Irrepairable to others. That no matter what you do - you are othered and unsalvageable.#While this situation deals with necromancy & war & politics...boy does it ever mirror how modern drama campaigns go.#I wonder if MXTX did that on purpose? Considering how SVSSS talks about the relationships between authors and their fans/work -#Its stands to reason that WWX story is indeed a parallel for how the public prefers black and white & sensationalist views of people.#People are heroes or villains and trying to think about the nuance is too much work.#And it does not matter what the truth or lies are. The rumour exists and so it must hold truth.#It feels like someone dropped a poorly researched callout post on WWX on twitter that went viral.#80% of the people don't even know who he is but are still leaving him death threats.#“Guys I know we all used to really love WWX's content but I heard he unethically sourced his bones for his last art installation...”#Okay actually he might indeed do unethical bone sourcing. I need to think longer on what the hyper-specific hobby drama might be.#And a huge shout out to LWJ who is right in the vicinity watching this happen in horror. *That* is a specially kind of torment too.

i say if you’re gonna have the mysterious entities speak in rhyme you might as well commit (EDIT: part 2!)
(posting an unprecedented Part 1 of At Least 3 bc i actually have the entire script and most of the storyboarding for this done already)
#yknow. got an idea. had a breakdown. bon appetit#this was the creative impulse i was referring to on sunday#my art#my poetry#secret life#secret life spoilers#slsmp#grian#geminitay#briefly#trafficblr#also#mostly bc i am proud of it and partly bc i want people to know it’s on purpose:#grian is not trying to rhyme at all in this part. he is being deliberately unhelpful#he lowkey tries to fuck it up on purpose in that second to last panel but the secret keepers just switch rhyme schemes#the one time he completes an end rhyme is because he lost his temper#anyway yeah this was motivated mostly by me wanting to see if i could do it

#my art#hermitcraft#hermitcraft design#hermitcraft s10#grian#grian fanart#gtwscar#gtws fanart#goodtimewithscar#goodtimeswithscar#mcyt#mcytblr#i hadnt expected such a big reaction toward my gem design!#so i figured (after a long wait) id at least have some more designs to share#they're pretty simple and follow the designs of their skins pretty well#i just tweaked some things for 'lore' purposes or added references where i could#granted im not caught up with either povs atm so things could be wrong

#just listened to the contract#this literally came to me as soon as I hear the autotune#I have been cursed with visions of memes and am merely a vessel to produce them#aye yo a vessel#that’s a top reference#omg didn’t even do that on purpose#I was just being cringe but I guess I can’t escape the lore#can’t escape dema more like 😔#anyway#twenty one pilots#twenty øne piløts#twenty one pilots breach#twenty one pilots the contract#the contract
