Fun Fact
Kazakhstan’s Minister of Communications and Informatics has blocked the Tumblr site because it contained 60 sites of terrorism, extremism, and pornography in 2015.
Also is it just me or looking back, the new Pop villains are boringly toothless. The Red Queen is meant to be intimidating but she hasn’t really done anything so 😭
That's the same thing I said a while back!
Red Baroness, Rumpelstiltskin, and Anna Gram/Dr. Blandston aren't terrible. The other three are.
Maybe they were planning on having the Red Queen do something as the Home Island story progressed, but... that didn't happen. It may never happen.
Keep in mind that they fired the old Poptropica writers in 2015, so that's the most likely explanation.
I've always liked Hollywood westerns where you fixed the problems with a six shooter. I have done some roleplay with the video here. Hope you like it.. And yes just love my long black leather coat
Elden Ring isn’t about Winning. Elden Ring is about getting weirdly obsessed with the backstory and lore of the game and then having your sister ask you why something is the way it is while watching you play it and so you launch into the back story of the symbolism behind serpents and why they’re seen as blasphemous and she says “oh cool. Does the game explain it to you later?” And you go “no. My friends eldenringslut and huggingtentacles on tumblr explained it to me and then I watched some YouTube videos about it. But it’s not explicitly said in-game.” And she looks at you like you’ve unlocked the davinci code or something but in fact the ADHD in you has synced your hyperfixations up with theirs so you love hearing about it and they love talking about it.
I think another element of Orym's involvement in this whole plot that is getting misconstrued or otherwise used inappropriately is Liam's statement that Orym can't be objective about this.
It's true that he can't be objective about the person who murdered his husband! I think very few people would be! But that doesn't change the fact that it is in fact completely and yeah, objectively true that the Vanguard murdered his husband because they wanted to get to Keyleth to test if Vax would show up, and so Keyleth's guards obviously tried to prevent an attack on Keyleth, and not only were they killed for defending her, they were killed in a way that specifically prevented resurrection, to no known benefit.
Orym's lack of objectivity doesn't mean he's in the wrong or that he should have to make himself to see the other side of "maybe the people who killed innocent guards as part of their moon experiments have a point." It just means that, for example, even if Abbadina is very pleasantly and calmly saying "oh I don't have any stakes in the moon thing nor do I know this guy who talked over the ley line broadcasting system, I just think he's right about the gods," he's going to leave the house and sleep outside instead of calmly listening. He's not going to be able to make that more general and detached argument about power and murder that Laudna and Ashton can make (also informed by their past experiences, but a little more removed). This is, for him, extremely personal; but he is still correct.
I think a comparable if obviously much less morally/theologically fraught example would be that Laudna, understandably, gets upset when Ashton talks to her about his own experiences with loneliness. It's a great scene, because both characters have experienced pretty profoundly lonely times in their lives.
Would it be appropriate for someone to say "well, Laudna obviously can't be objective here; she's relying too much on her own past experiences to inform her judgment, so we should ignore her"? I think it's pretty obvious that's an absolutely fucking stupid thing to say; but that's what people are saying when they're bringing up Orym's emotional response. People are still allowed to have pretty strong subjective feelings about things that objectively happened.
i always think about the fact that while in beauclair, geralt's hanza lived in the palace lying that they were nobility, travelling incognito... what that meant for angoulême, whose only ask was to be made a countess... i like to think that she enjoyed her time in beauclair then...
Wasn't going to post this one because I feel like I'm posting too many refs lately but fuck it I like this design tbh so here lmao
My smiling friends S/I Garth, the dog...horse...critter. Thing.
Its toyhouse page has juicy lorebits stuff (not a whole lot but a little bit) for the loreheads out there
(There are mentions of it dating Pim, Glep and Marge [glep's wife] though just a heads up for anyone seeing this that isn't comfortable sharing them)
The way Pib’s hypothetical thrice upon a time was described in the last Adventuring Party had me wondering how that would play out in the final fight… Super self-indulgent, but I liked the idea that Tomas would insist on popping out of Mother Goose’s book to protect his scared lil kitty :-) I think this miller’s son should FIGHT
