I think one reason Persona 5 appeals to me so greatly is that it lets me believe in a a world where people in power actually face consequences for their misdeeds, and also that those consequences will come in the form of righteously furious teenagers given demonic super powers

a few yrs ago i was mucking around with a danny phantom concept of a bug kingdom in the ghost zone, and a specific ghost mantis character in it. i was reminded of it recently and decided to give the design a facelift :p

maybe its just me but tfone elita-1 kinda reminds me of a mantis. it hit me bcs of her wider helm that looks like a mantis head, wider at the top-middle and then goes into a narrow point at the bottom. and her little already bug looking antennas???
Tumblr media Tumblr media
long limbs and thin build (at least in tfone bcs of how the bots are stylized for animation), small but packs a punch, feminine and dangerous. if youre not convinced look at the comparison between an orchid mantis and elita.

beastformers elita would be a mantis i think i must zap her with my bug beam

I think the funniest thing about shipping mantis x loki in rivals is their ironic similarities that people wouldn’t have thought to compare before.
loki is the god of mischief/lies. mantis can read his mind or feelings to find the truth.
they’re both green, Mantis has antennas, Loki’s helmet has horns.
Mantis’s abilities in rivals revolves around nature/life, and y’all know about Loki’s connection with “trees”….
and also they both have dumb (usually blonde) brothers, which, also fits my comparison because iirc Loki and thor aren’t siblings in norse mythology and are uncle/nephew instead? which makes them only brothers in the mcu, mantis and peter are only siblings in the mcu, too.

Ok so I talked about this in tags of a post earlier but I need to talk about it properly
So a couple weeks ago I finally pulled the trigger, I dual booted Linux Mint on my laptop
It has less of my vital files on it then my pc, but I use it more for videos and general Internet stuff, so I would know if I liked it
Installing was scary but after a bit of trouble shooting with disabling bit locker it was easy, and let me be clear, that's a windows thing, because Microsoft really really doesn't want you to have freedom over your machine.
So I booted in
And like
I literally love it so much
I knew people talked about how much better Linux is and how it speeds up literally anything it's put on over windows, but like WOW
It doesn't take 2 minutes to boot up or shut down, my CPU doesn't idle at 25% for no reason, the search for files feature doesn't take 40 minutes only to show me Internet results instead of files, its wonderful.
The default theme is (in my opinion) pretty ugly, sorry whoever made it, it's just not for me.
But that's the great thing, you can literally customize this almost however you would like.
Maybe you shouldn't trust my opinion on what looks nice because I instantly installed a theme that replicated Windows 7
But I got bored of the default colors so I literally found the files where the home bar is saved and changed them to be more "minty"
That along with some CSS color editing gave me this:
Tumblr media
You just can't do anything like this in Windows 10/11. You can change the color on windows but if I wanted, in Mint, I could completely change everything, centered icons on the taskbar, icons left justified on the taskbar, no taskbar, make it look like windows 95, it's all yours to do with whatever you want.
There are issues, I won't lie, the biggest one that will probably haunt Linux forever is compatibility.
Simply put most developers don't make native Linux versions of their software, you are lucky if there is a Mac version.
Lots and lots of Windows software CAN work on Linux through compatibility layers like Wine and Steam's Proton, but it's not 100%
My biggest problem is FL Studio and Clip Studio, neither of these I could get working with Wine or Proton so far. I'm hoping in the future I will find a way to make this work, or transition to their free and open source alternatives, but for now I'm stuck with a win 10 pc.
The other issue I've faced is that Linux seems to have a hard time recognizing and remembering my wired headphones. Like sometimes it just works, but most of the time it fails to do so.
My solution to this until I have time to troubleshoot more is to use my stupid headphone jack to USB C dongle that I bought for my stupid phone with no headphone jack.
Luckily it works fine and the type C port on my laptop literally doesn't get used otherwise.
All in all, I'm like excited to use a computer again. I used to only be excited for the programs it allowed me to use, but for the first time in a long time, the "magic" of the PC has returned for me.
Once I save up the money, my next PC will be Linux, Windows doesn't cut it anymore for me.
Ok now I'm going to kinda just talk about Linux for a bit, unrelated to my experience because my brain has been buzzing about this topic lately.
I get why guys who run Linux are so annoying about it now, because it's me now, I love this stupid OS and everyone has to hear about it.
And chances are, you've used Linux before already!
Linux is used in a ridiculous number of places because of its open source nature.
Most servers and other cloud computing systems are running Linux, many public terminals and screens run Linux, every supercomputer in the world runs Linux, if you were in the education system for the past 13~ years you might have used ChromeOS, which is built on Linux, if you have ever used an Android device you have used Linux.
It's never going to take over Windows as the go to operating system in the home, most people don't even know they could switch, and if they don't know that there's no way they are willing to put up with some of the headaches Linux brings.
Although I've spent way more time troubleshooting Windows issues then I have Linux ones so far, so maybe Microsoft stuffing so much bloated spyware into their system is starting to cause windows to rip at the seams, idk.
When I try to explain Linux to people who literally don't understand any of this I use a car metaphor
Windows is like a hatchback SUV, you buy it from a dealer and it mostly works for everyone good enough that they don't complain.
Linux is like a project vehicle in a lot of ways, the mechanic can tune it up exactly to the specifications they want, tear a bit out and put a diffrent one in, it requires some work under the engine but once that mechanic gets it the way they want it, it's incredible.
It's not a perfect metaphor but I think it gets the idea across.
Uh IDK how to finish this post, please try Linux if you can, changed my life.

Welcome to skins for marvel rivals that would make me empty my wallet
(With mostly starlord and Adam because I main them… oops)
First and foremost: cowboy skin set please please netease look at what you could do
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It’d be so cool… and since we already have the rocket skin and the mrs.barnes skin I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they released these
Next, skins inspired in the designs of the gotg game, especially Mantis because her design is just gorgeous and I feel like it’s pretty different to her usual design with the pink skin and all
Tumblr media
Now, this is completely self-indulgent but it would be so cool to have any of these designs of Adam as a skin for him, either his design for Adam rebirth or the 2008 gotg one
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bonus points if they give him makeup in the 2008 one
Last but not least, annihilation starlord… or grounded starlord would also be cool
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Any of these would be super cool
Honestly this is just my way of coping until they release new skins for my mains please forgive me 😔

you just knoww jay and kira wrote fanfic in navy school. like they'd be at the back of a history class teaching them a false narrative, and they'd be scribbling away and the teacher would think they're taking such detailed notes but really they're writing the filthiest rpf smut about a captain and his first mate who gave a talk at their school one time
