From timestamps from pierat and my own scrubbing and looking at discord timestamps to guess stream timestamps. These are. A lot of work to get cuts as clean as I do.
My mom, trying to be supportive of my asexuality and trying to explain what it means, "She's not interested in sex at all. She doesn't even like to mastubate."
Me, in my head: 😱😨🤯 "Oh god. OMG. Oh My Fucking God. Why would you tell someone that??? Why would you say that IN THE MIDDLE OF A RESTAURANT???
Ok. Breathe. It's ok. You have nothing to be ashamed of. And you trust this person not to be a biggot. They're one of "your people." They probably won't understand, but they'll accept you."
Hello Mr Sims! On a scale of 1-10 how much do you believe in free will? 1 being everything is entirely determined and 10 being everything is free will
I do not believe the future is determined in any external way. I do believe that if every single neuron of someone's brain were fully and completely understood and mapped out down to the moment a decision is made, and every single micro- and macroscopic factor affecting that decision was also understood, then it would be possible to completely predict a person's course of action. Now, obviously, we will never have anything close to the ability to do that, and even if we did that knowing itself alter the equation. Our minds and realities are so infinitely complex that such a thing is impossible, so for all practical purposes we have free will.
I have a very specific headcanon that Rise of the Guardians exists in the same universe as Trollhunters
Which leads me to say, Jack Frost and Douxie Casperan met one day 300 years ago, and when Jack realized Douxie could see him, he's never left him alone since
Ok, so I want to talk about Secret Life, specifically Scar, because it has been some time now, and I feel like the fandom is starting to misremember/misinterpret some things.
Scar was quite alone in Secret Life, yes, but unlike Pearl in Double Life or even Scar himself in Last Life it wasn't because people didn't want to be allies with him. Quite the opposite, a lot of people asked to be allies with him: Heart Foundation, Grian, Gem and the Scotts (particularly Smajor).
It was Scar who either straight up refused these alliances or decided not to take them due to a task from the secret keeper. In the end, he was alone, doomed by his own paranoia and mistrust of others as he believed he didn't fit with any group or anyone, that if he joined them, they would betray him. But they didn't. When he finally joined a group, they stayed loyal by his side until the very end, and this is why Secret Life Scar is such a good character. Even by the end, he still thought he had no friends despite the fact that the entire server at one point or another invited him to join them.
Scar was very much his own greatest enemy in Secret Life, so, of course, his ultimate fate was to be alone as the only surviving winner. Because he couldn't trust anyone other than himself, no matter how much he wanted to.
is it just me or does the naming convention of dios apate major imply that augustine and mercymorn were at the very least keeping their options open for a dios apate minor to happen. like why else would they specify the major
like it implies the forethought of “this is the most politically relevant threesome with god we’ll ever have, but let’s specify that, just in case we ever decide we need to have another threesome with him for some other reason in the future”
Everyone whos saying they pulled a 5 hour long bait and switch on people just for the hl2vrai trailer. It wasn't just a bit for that it was so much more than that. Everyone is switching on a dime calling it such a good joke or staying stuck mad and pissy about it. Genuinely it was a fun stream. It was something the RTVS team clearly had a lot of fun making, they put 3 years of work and planning into it. There is more to them than HLVRAI. They never directly said it would be HL2VRAI.
But honestly though. I can't blame them for teasing it as such. If YOU put 3 years of effort into something would you allow it to just get ignored by everyone because it isn't what everyone cares about you for. Or would you want to make sure all the people started liking you for it initially would see how you grew.
BrBaVRAI was the same thing that HLVRAI was supposed to be. A fun stream with friends.
It isn't just for you man. It's supposed to be something fun and if you genuinely threw a shitfit about it or if you gave up on it called it unfunny, mid, or even bad. Only to turn around once you got what you Wanted.
You do not deserve what the RTVS crew will make.
You do not deserve HL2VRAI
EDIT: Honestly I don't care about most of the shit people are upset about. Yeah its fine for them to troll you they're known for that. Don't treat their work like it was always shit up until the point they gave you the shit you were waiting for. Just because you wanted a Twix doesnt mean a Snickers doesn't taste just as sweet. They aren't morally bad people for a prank that upset you.
