#he sounds so baby girl

[ohmystarrynight]

I was talking with @spiritkidd about this episode and this was the resulting convo

This is probably one of my favorite episodes in the show (besides all my other favorites which is just every episode in the series) but S2 Ep09 was literally hilarious.

I love getting validated on small things that I didn't even consider like it's always a treat and this time it's Gender

The Fundie Baby Voice™️ has been popping up a lot in ex-christian spaces lately and I actually had one in middle school and part of high school! I learned when and where to use it and how to turn up my southern accent just enough. I can still do it but it sounds weird after 3 years on T. The main place I used it was at church cause it made me sound sweet and polite. I used it for old ladies when I worked at a grocery store too. My family didn't like it when we were just all together cause they said it sounded like baby talk, but loved it when I used it at church cause everyone would tell them how sweet and soft-spoken I was

My therapist said it actively made him feel uncomfortable when I used that voice. He couldn't quite put his finger on why it made him uncomfortable (other than him only knowing me on T) but he very much did not like it and he's so so right for that

I reread Vol 13 and 14 of A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School bc I wanted to find the chapter where they reveal the Principal’s face and name again and

First off, would.

Second, I have such a soft spot for him after this. I am so excited for Vol 14 to officially release in English so I can have the cover on display on my shelf.

Lastly, I was looking up the character voice actors that were used for the drama cd (thankfully listed on the wikipedia page) and HE’S KENJIRO TSUDA.

Probably unpopular opinion but even though I definitely envision him with that voice with the mask, its difficult for me to do so now with the recent chapters and the approximate age if when he became a youkai (~20s). I think its… too gruff and deep.

I being able to listen to the drama cd would probably help, but atm if they do end up changing it… I like Atsushi Tamaru’s Azul or Yuichi Jose’s Sakyo (18:13)…

"You got a mural of the Bobbery anywhere? You know the—I mean, that's gotta be—if I did that, Bob! If I did the dive, 'ha-cha-cha!' Like I would have that painted over my—I think I would put that over the master bedroom, like right there! Do we have a photo of that or a mural, a canvas of that anywhere?" "...I have a picture of it, yeah... some of my friends gifted me that picture so I have it in my house... but again, you know, like it's just... it's happened... so I don't give myself one hundred percent credit for that, there is a lot... you know, it was two broken plays before, and then just like—I tried to throw as much as possible of my body and it happened to hit my arm so..." "You ever look at a picture and go, 'How?! How did this—How did—' Like sometimes you gotta be lucky, sometimes like it's—" "Yeah, and so that's what happened and yeah... Again, so I'm thankful to God, and appreciate him for the—everything that I went through last two years in the playoffs, and for this victory. It's all for him."

I cannot help but fall a little bit in love with Earthspark megatron… I also love women covered in blood 🩸

[dhmis-autism]

update on watching dhmis with my mom; we are on transport, she immidiately noticed the lesley lisence plates in the animated sequence on her own and kept guessing which character was named lesley

the car died and she went ohh poor lesley :( and the GPS showed up and she was like OH! that must be lesley because thats a girl!

also for all u duck kin truthers out there she doubled down on comparing me to him and said that "its ok that you dont want to be him, but you are" so thts great for my allegations ; v ; )

[s1llycilantro]

I lied, who am i if not on the grind?

[fauvester]

is julians baby photo collection like blackmail in the garak-bashir family?

omg i was so immediately charmed by the idea of amsha visiting i had to drop everything and do that instead. cardassians are such sluts for big families and the kids have TWO living grandparents! a wealth! a superfluity of venerated elders!

the bashirs are very confused and a little privately dismayed about the direction their son's life has taken him, at least until Garak is elected the castellan of the planet. and they are making their peace with their lizard grandkids

this mf really can, without ever meeting you (since you can skip the town introductions now) show up on your doorstep exactly a year after you arrive with some kind of gigolo application. it’s entirely possible for this to be your first ever interaction with him.

The Dark Urge: Who Are They Really?

After discussing this (for way too long) with a friend, I’m gonna voice my thoughts out to the void like the nerd I am.

I’ve never been a huge fan of amensia narratives because I think they’re cheesy and lazy. But The Dark Urge is so Drakengard-coded that I locked onto them immediately. The Durge and I are a match made in Heaven. And this is where my friend comes in. He doesn’t want to play Durge because “you’re playing a monster.” I argued back that, technically, they have no memory of who they are and can change. Basically Durge-in-game =\= Durge pre-game (depending on how you play obviously). But my friend, let’s call him Zach, argued it doesn’t matter if Durge works towards being a “good” (good can be subjective) person because they’re guilty of unforgivable crimes including ones we probably don’t hear about. Zach argues Durge’s origin as Bhaalspawn does complicate things, but that it doesn’t excuse it. Durge is shown as able to resist the urge (even at great physical pain). He doesn’t count “remote” killings as in when Bhaal overrides Durge (ex. Alfira).

This got us discussing the philosophy behind such a scenario. Is the original’s persona dead? Does this mean the Durge we play is a new person, and Durge from before is dead? Or is this the same person? What changed within Durge (if they’re repenting) to cause them to reject their old life and ways? It brings to mind John Locke’s argument about “Day” and “Night-man” in which Locke insists that a body may share a soul but not be the same person. Locke states:

“For granting that the thinking Substance in Man must be necessarily suppos’d immaterial, ‘tis evident, that immaterial thinking thing may sometimes part with its past consciousness, and be restored to it again, as appears in the forgetfulness Men often have of their past Actions, and the Mind many times recovers the memory of a past consciousness, which it had lost for twenty Years together. Make these intervals of Memory and Forgetfulness to take their turns regularly by Day and Night, and you have two Persons with the same immaterial Spirit, as much as in the former instance two Persons with the same Body. So that self is not determined by Identity or Diversity of Substance…but only by identity of consciousness” (Locke, An Essay Concerning Human Understanding).

Essentially, he believed the conscious could change while the body and soul remains the same. A new person is born out of a change in consciousness. A Jekyll and Hyde situation (at its worse in Durge’s case). This sentiment sits at the foot of Zach and I’s “fight” (not a fight lol). I believe Durge-during-the-game to be a completely different person, while Zach sees them as a bad person with no memory of being terrible. For Zach, they are the same person, terrible traits and all, and so they deserve no sympathy (aside from the obvious like their lack of body autonomy at the hands of Bhaal and Orin). But from a purely philosophical question, I don’t know the answer. I know my opinion and Zach’s opinion, but we couldn’t come to an agreement.

Idk I just really love The Dark Urge and their complicated psyche lol thanks for making them enough of a freak, Larian, that my friend and I could discuss this for like two hours in the break room at school.
