I'm not really a fan of TADC (nor Danganronpa) but why do I feel that Caine is similar to Monokuma? The way Caine remorselessly wiped Gumigoo off the circus, etc etc.

I have a hunch that Gumigoo might've been human but perhaps abstracted a long time ago and was reused as an NPC?

Anyway, here's a quick sketch of Gumigoo.

I hate the victim blaming rhetoric about "well the victim was happy in this photo" "the victim was not complaining in this instance" "the victim appears fine". You cannot judge how a victim performs in a situation that is dangerous especially when their job is on the line. You cannot judge how a victim feels about a situation. You cannot blame a victim for doing things in the moment that keep them safe (ie appearing happy/fine). Stop judging victims for how they act in certain situations just stop!!

im kinda new, wdym with the "im happy" thing? o(-(

AAA WELCOME TO DTBLR ANON!!! hope u enjoy it here :]

it’s a clip from one of dream’s streams from April 2021, at kinda the apex of the speedrunning controversy and also while he was getting harassed by other creators (namely Kaceytron) about queerbaiting with George and a whole host of other issues, it’s one of my least favorite times of my entire history being in the fandom :(

This is the clip, and he mentioned a lot later that it was one of the times where his mental health had taken a complete nosedive. People realized that he wasn’t saying he was actually happy but rather trying to reassure himself in the midst of all the garbage 😭 it was heartbreaking looking back on it but yeah!! it’s just a clip w a really sad story but it’s okay now!! He has his best friends he’s been waiting for to hang out with and the world at his fingertips. He deserves the happiness we’ve seen from him the past few days :]

Counting Stars

Bdubs could not sleep. Etho was off working in the jungle, and Ren was usy out working on Giga Corp. On most nights like this where he can not sleep, he would either go to the basement to bug Etho or would go upstairs to bug Ren before they moved out. Tonight however, Bdubs could not sleep and did not have anyone at the monolith to hang out with.

Not wanting to just stay in the quiet of the monolith, Bdubs got out of his bed, grabbed his moss cloak, and left his room. He could not remember the last time he just sat outside by himself at night, usually he did it with Etho or Ren. It is not like it is unheard of for Bdubs to not sleep the night away, but it kind of is unheard of for him to be up and alone.

The night was warm with the moon being full and big up in the black abyss above him. Bdubs had to stop and remind himself that the moon was not going to come crashing down on him again as he was leaving the monolith. Xisuma himself had found him one day while he was working to personally reassure Bdubs that the moon would not crash down again. He had known that Xisuma had sought him out that day because Bdubs had a panic attack the night before when walking out with Etho. Despite this fact though, it was nice to have the server admin personally reassure him that he would never have to deal with that trauma again. It was going to take some time, but he was slowly getting more and more okay with seeing the moon in the night sky.

The firepit in front of the tower had a decent stack of wood in it from the last time that Bdubs had planned on having a fire but did not. Bdubs walked over to the chest next to the sitting logs and pulled out his flint and steel, taking it to the firepit and started his fire. Returning the fire starter, he grabbed out one of his outdoor blankets and made himself comfortable on one of the sitting logs. He had the blanket laying over his lap and his cloak wrapping around his shoulders, making him feel comfy and cozy in front of the fire. Bdubs was watching the night sky, admiring the soft twinkling of the stars when he saw a shooting star.

Now a shooting star was not something new to Bdubs, he had seen plenty of them before. What he had not seen when it came to shooting stars, was them shooting and falling right out of the sky. He had watched it soar right into the forest right by where his base was set up. Bdubs had debated just ignoring what he had seen and staying at the fire where he was comfortable. He knew that he was not going to do that though because Bdubs was not known for his ability to ignore his curiosity, especially when he is bored. 

Getting up to put out the fire and put the blanket away, Bdubs went into the monolith to grab his lantern before going on his scavenger hunt for the fallen star. He did not even know what he was going to do if he found the star. Was he just going to leave it in the forest? Was he going to take it to Xisuma and find out why it fell out of the night sky? Was he just going to keep it for himself? Bdubs had a feeling he was going to do just that, keep the star and probably use it for decoration in his base somewhere.

After spending what felt like well over an hour of searching, Bdubs was ready to just call off the search and write off the falling star as seeing things. He was ready to head back to the tower and hopefully be able to go to sleep in his bed once he was back. Just when he was about to turn back, there was a slight twinkling that caught his eye just ahead of Bdubs. Deciding not to give up, he strolled up to where the twinkling was coming from.

As Bdubs approached the source of the soft twinkling light, he found the star in a small divot in the ground where it had landed. The small glowing orb had a beautifully warm yellow glow that illuminated the ground around it. Bduubs hesitantly knelt down to pick up the star, finding it surprisingly cool in his hands despite the warm glow. Even though Bdubs knew that wishing on a shooting star was meant for one in the sky, he still found himself cupping the star in his hands and closing his eyes to make a wish.

After a few minutes of basking in the silence of the night, Bdubs opened his eyes and carefully placed the small star into his pocket and started heading back to his bed. Bdubs felt a nice comforting sense of peace with the star in his pocket as he made his way back. Once he was back in his room, he carefully placed the star on the table next to his bed before getting himself comfortable in his bed and had the best sleep he had had in a while.

The next day, Bdubs decided that he was going to carry the star around with him, to kind of be his good luck charm. As he was getting ready to head out to do some work on his base, Etho and Ren stopped by, asking if he wanted to hang out for the day. Bdubs had agreed, silently thanking his little star for granting his wish. He did not even know if the star had granted his wish, but he did not think that it really mattered all that much in the moment.

Hey you ever think about The Characters so much to the point where

[whaledocboi]

ai generated images make me increasingly sad and tired the more i see them in more and more casual contexts. i dont know how to explain, but it just fills the world with a bunch of nothing. no matter how visually stunning the pictures might be, there's nothing behind it for me. no dedication, no emotions, no feelings, no hard work or creativity, nothing i can truly think about, admire or enjoy. i dont think thats how art is supposed to be

[maibeloved]

Guess who is back in their gravity falls phase! (After it being dormant for almost a decade!)

[toss-a-coin-to-your-stan-account]

being a student during peak pandemic was so fucking surreal like. "it's not an excuse to fall behind" I cannot stress enough to you how much A Worldwide Plague Upending Life As We Know It is literally one of The Top Three Reasons to fall behind

[diadraws]

so, theres a cartoon. but, get this: i've drawn the characters as weird animals. i bet youve never seen me do that before

[crow-enthusiast]

hey there’s something i haven’t seen people talking about in deadpool and wolverine

in the car fight the blood on logan’s face in this frame is from wades wounds above him. he’s smiling like that as wades blood drips into his mouth… which could mean nothing

[chloesimaginationthings]

RIP Michael Afton.. you would of loved FLAF

[subterra-rose]

Honestly pokemon is the ideal universe not just because there’s cute animals that are your life companions, but because they have walkable cities and adequate biking infrastructure

You know that Chris Fleming line that goes "Call yourself a community organizer even though you're not on speaking terms with your roommates"?

I honestly think every leftist who talks about the "revolution" like Christians talk about the rapture needs to spend a year trying to organize their workplace. Anyone who sincerely talks about building a movement so vast and all-encompassing that it overwhelms all existing power structures needs the dose of humility that comes with realizing they can't even build a movement to get people paid better at a badly run AMC Theaters where everyone already hates the manager.

can i say something. for years i thought the joke of the song short skirt/long jacket by cake was that he wanted a woman who was hung like a horse. like i thought when he says jacket it was a last-second fakeout because he very obviously meant to say cock. and the rest of the things in the song were just her personality and interests. which were secondary to her awesome penis

-THE lord of the wild who's also close friends with the first two (and has helped save the world multiple times)

-a son of apollo who survived tartarus with nothing but cargo shorts and sheer will (pun intended)

-the main designer and builder for the argo II, also the first hephaestus kid to have fire powers since hundreds of years ago (did i mention killed gaea? no? yeah he did that too)

-a girl who somehow charmspeak-ed gaea into falling back asleep (also side note daughter of super famous actor because why not)

-pretty much everybody is a two-time war veteran

-THE GOD APOLLO who just sometimes comes down to visit in the form of a teenage boy

-did i mention dionysus, god of wine madness and theatre
