2 were from the United Arab Emirates (also a powerful/oil-rich country the U.S. works hard to maintain diplomatic relations with)
1 was from Egypt, 1 from Lebanon.
None of the hijackers were from Iraq.
None of the Sept 11 hijackers were Iraqi.

Me: "hey game developers, especially AAA ones, are getting laid off en-mass and it's awful for our industry" Gamer: "well I only play INDIE games and the problem with AAA games is they are creatively bankrupt"
Me, slamming my fists on the table like a baby: "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THIS IS ABOUT A BUSINESS PROBLEM PERPETUATED BY CAPITALISM NOT A STATEMENT ON CREATIVE DECISION MAKING"

If neurotypicals are so good at picking up hints, why do they never seem to notice you leaning away when they try to touch you?
[Edit: From now on, anyone who wants to reply with some variation of 'they just don't care' must first donate £10 to a respected autism charity.
It's not even that you're wrong exactly, I'm just sick of seeing the same response regurgitated like it's something I can't possibly have thought of myself.]
[Edit 2: No more reblogs actually. If you screenshot this to reupload it I will break into your house and clean your toilet with your toothbrush.
Retyping it in your own words and making your own post is fine.]

A lot of people have been asking about my version of Bowser and what he’s like. And my answer is that he’s a lot more cruel than canon Bowser. He is ruthless, he is powerful. And he is more than willing to kill you to get what he wants.
People have also asked about when the Bros witnessed the power of a 1-up mushroom for the first time, and what exactly happened.. When the bros invaded Bowser’s castle to rescue Peach, Bowser was not fazed. Countless Toads and Delfinos had made the dangerous journey to his castle, only to be erased by one swipe of his claw. And Mario was no different. Without the protection of the Fire flower, he was dead in one strike.
The thing that set Mario apart from the other so called “hero’s”, the thing about him that struck fear in Bowsers heart. Was that after being killed. Mario stood back up. And not only that, but he knocked Bowser out with one blow to the face. Bowser didn’t even know what hit him before he collapsed.
As Mario was escaping with Luigi and Peach in tow, Bowser was furious. This plan he’d been crafting for years was destroyed by one small man. Bowser spoke out of line. “This isn’t over”. A threat to strike again.
Bowser didn’t think this creature could scare him more than he already has. But its when Mario made a promise. A promise to one day return, and kill him. That Bowser realized how truly outmatched he was. And he did not try to prevent them from escaping.

we need ao3 for fanart and I am so completely serious. A universal platform not driven by any kind of professionalism or end goal, just for creating. Most important of all it needs to share the incredibly helpful and complex filing system ao3 does. this would be beneficial I think. because I want it.

Tlt fans should hold audiobook listening parties á la Rocky Horror screenings. Come in costume, recite key lines, wave lighters, bring themed snacks, throw popcorn at the device when things get campy.

if you squint a little, the bit with the kristen clone that's super slender and girly (and british-accented for some reason) is a metaphor/joke for how fandoms will misinterpret a female character to make them more palatable. even if they consider themselves progressive they're still forcing her into the box of stereotypical feminine traits that do not fit her and have basically made an entirely new character

There should be a website for aspecs that's a bit like doesthedogdie.com where it warns if a movie has sex scenes, romantic subplots, or amatonormative tropes.

Feel free to be more specific in comments/notes if you want! If you want to elaborate further, how do you organize them? By role, species, age, alphabetical order, vibes or something else?
