What are dead man walking tornadoes? :O
it’s a multi-vortex tornado. i dont remember the tribe it originates from (i think it was cherokee), but there’s a native american legend…? saying? that goes “if you see a man in a tornado, you are about to die.”
the most infamous shot of a dead man walking tornado hit jarrell, texas in 1997
it did so much damage to the town it caused the scale that tornados are measured by, the fijita scale, undergo revisions, and it made anchoring buildings in the tornado alley region pretty much mandatory. (it took the entire town off the map. only those who had taken shelter outside of the town or in underground bunkers survived.)
two more examples of dead man walking tornadoes looking like a person are a tornado from 2011 that hit cullman, alabama
and a tornado from 1975 that hit xenia, ohio
edit: it has been brought to my attention that the native american “legend” part of this post was a rumor spread by a documentary.
i have been asked to remove it, but i believe in letting my errors stand because i’m not perfect. i make mistakes

❛ are you always this straightforward with strangers ? ❜
First meeting starters || Closed
The Greek God looked at the girl in his shop. He had heard of her but this was his first time actually meeting the famed goddess of the dead in the norse pantheon. The Greek lowered his sunglasses and laughed. "Usually! I'm always straightforward with strangers and even not strangers. Besides, the sass and annoyance straightforwardness comes out to my fellow Greeks. Other pantheon God's, I respect," he stated, flipping his sunglasses back up as he gazed at the death goddess.
"But my question is, what brings a death goddess here? Surely you have quite the array of weapons and weapons makers to choose from? Is this an order for the Pits?" He asked, looking at all the daggers on the wall. "If it is, wise to come to me, since you know that I'd decline it automatically," he laughed.

Holy shit I love your Dirk interpretations, it's so true and I could talk about this shit forever.
I feel like another part of his character that people seem to forget (along with Roxy for some reason) is that he's from the future in solitude in an apocalyptic wasteland. I just see that part of his character always removed which is disappointing because I feel like that's a pretty big part, especially regarding his themes around technology, his brother's theme of Time, his own isolation, and how he plays in the vastness of the universe and spacetime.
Art I drew related to the subject because I like to respond to asks with art.
But absolutely. I certainly understand where the lack of discussion over his isolation + upbringing comes from, considering a majority of the fanbase that I have seen builds their ideas based on their own version of postcanon. I’m not entirely sure how that would be fixed, but certainly even in the somewhat recent past I would see a lot more content regarding his upbringing both literally and symbolically. I don’t have much to add regarding the things you’ve mentioned, because they just are what they are. Dirk being confined to a singular room left to him by a father figure he never met, in a future where the only other person left on the planet is someone he cannot pursue a relationship of because of himself, with purely 3 robots to keep him companion, one being an exact replica of his own brain who is *also* trapped inside a pair of glasses, is about as literal as it gets to me.
The contrast to me involving the flooded, organic world in comparison to the little speckle of Dirk’s apartment packed with the dude and his technics is not only a representation of his isolation and entrapment within himself, but also of his lack of control. I think his obsession with & themes of control are a direct product in the case of Dirk specifically *of* this kind of upbringing. His themes of technology are also related to his themes around control. So much of his character is actually revolved around this to me like so much. Dirk is so deeply disconnected from humanity in every way and so much of his character + symbolism is based around that.
It doesn’t even have to be about the symbolism or anything though. It’s just pretty *interesting* in the literal sense that he lives in the middle of the ocean in the future. There’s not only a lot to theorise on to do with his young life there, but on how it might affect him in the way he acts for the rest of his life. The latter part is probably what I see mentioned the most by people talking about Dirk regarding this, I’m surprised I don’t see more discussion on the former too though. I really ought to actually talk more about Homestuck stuff on here. I will do it myself.
Roxy & Dirk’s relationship is largely ignored though because there is a narrative a certain demographic spreads that Dirk resented and blamed Roxy for her interest in him, and thus too many people believe that their relationship was or would continue to be an abusive one. Realistically, I believe it’s important to acknowledge that the way Roxy treated Dirk regarding his homosexuality wasn’t right while still acknowledging the obvious amount of respect and admiration Dirk had for Roxy. I mean we have a huge piece of dialogue from their post trickster mode conversations on the quest beds from Dirk purely stating how he feels about Roxy that people completely ignore somehow. I think this usually happens to characters that are women though. I know everyone says it, but it is true. Jane gets the exact same treatment of boiling her down to solely her negative aspects. The things I see completely mischaracterising both of them are horrific.
I mean how much more explicit can it get that their relationship is obviously very important to Dirk? But I digress. I think the best or I should say “most interesting” interpretations of their relationship usually come from DirkRoxy shippers actually.
I would be interested to hear about Dirk’s relation to his brother’s theme of time though. I don’t have any thoughts on this and I don’t recall ever hearing anyone talk about it before. If you or anyone else would be willing to enlighten me I’d be thrilled.

definitely something simon would do with his backpack
PLS THE WAY HE WONT EVEN TELL YOU 😭
biker!simon mlist // star divider by @/plutism <33
like, just imagine being out on a ride with the rest of the boys and they stop by a bodega for snacks or smthn idk (johnny definitely needs to piss) and you notice the way simon’s shoulders are shaking in a silent laughter while the rest of the squad is turned towards the two of you, watching with rapt interest.
you flip your visor up. “what’s goin’ on?” you ask
simon heaves a deep sigh, calming himself down, before patting your knee and getting off the bike. he flicks the kill-switch and kicks at the side stand to keep the bike from tilting.
he doesn’t help you get off so you wonder if it’s just a quick stop, but then johnny hollers, “y’r not allowed to come in, lass!”
“what?”
simon turns to you with his visor up, his lips pursed in that boyish smile. “take care of the kids, yeah?”
he bends down just enough to bump his helmet on yours – a kiss, that you know – before walking to the bodega, flanked by the rest of the group.
what fucking kids-
the bikes?
you’re still frozen on his bike, watching as the group splits up – john heads towards the fridges, johnny asks the worker for a key for the washroom, kyle disappears between the shelved snacks, and simon stands by the window that is empty of pasted posters so he can stare back at you from inside the shop.
you shoot him a glare, one that you know he won’t even see because of the distance between you two.
simon gives you a small wave.
it isn’t until later when you’re pinching his thighs that he finally tells you what that was all about. he points to the “no backpacks allowed” sign and looks at you with a quirked brow.
“ohh!” you say as the realization dawns on you. simon huffs a laugh while johnny swats the back of your helmet lightly.
“took y’long enough, din’cha?”
you punch johnny’s shoulder in retaliation. “shut up, man.”
“yeah, man,” simon pipes up, trying, and failing, to tamp down his thick accent to mimic your intonation. “shut up- jesus, lovie. stop pinching me- ow!”
johnny snickers as he runs back to his bike.

reposting this bc i thought it was really sweet
edit: added an ID by @starberry-skies <3
[Image Decription. A Reddit post labeled as "Discussion", with the title: "Splatoon and LGBT". The post reads:
What about splatoon makes it such a common place to find LGBT individuals? I feel like it's pretty often I'm seeing either gay or trans related community posts and it makes me think that it's pretty common in the community. I'm curious as to why...
The post ends there. A reply by AwfulDjinn reads:
in addition to what everyone else mentioned (the lack of voice chat, the more gender neutral character designs esp in Splat3, etc) I think a big part of it is the way the whole vibe of the series really focuses on self expression and being true to oneself. there's this whole sort of theme of "do what you want, wear what you want, all that matters is that you're Fresh, and Freshness is just a state of mind"
that really resonates with LGBT+ people for obvious reasons that and the fact that it's explicitly a future, post apocalyptic setting... but a very bright and hopeful one? humanity is gone, but our dreams still live on, and they're trying to fix what humanity got wrong and be better than we were. when you're a marginalized person living in the modern world, that's a very comforting idea. that no matter how messed up and broken the world may get, there's always hope, and there's always people who want to make things better.
