I cannot emphasize this enough: THE MASTER AND THE TOYMAKER ARE TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT ARCHETYPES. The show has pretty much made the difference explicit. The Toymaker is bound by game rules, and this is huge, and I again have to get everyone intrigued by the character to read bloody Johan Huizinga's Homo Ludens. The man basically derives all of culture from games. Yes, laws, language, economics, savoir vivre, it's all coming from our ability to accept that punching someone in the nose when within a designated ring after a properly marked individual made the proper sign is a different thing from just punching someone in the nose. That doesn't always work right, but on the whole we're better off throwing balls to play than to kill, just as we're better off with spacecrafts than bones.
The Master exploits the rules, rigs them in their favour and ignores when it suits them. Theirs is the might makes right, extraordinary men have the right to transgress law in any way, just because they are extraordinary attitude. And this nietzscheanism is the underbelly of the Doctor's prometheanism.

Hey so im moving out of my flat tomorrow and due to my university* being Awful at Admin and me having to spend a lot of time and energy fixing shit, I have to pack down essentially my entire flat in one night. Anyone got any tips for how you pack quickly?
*technically former. I graduated and will only ever return for a) a brief stint as an advisor in a subject I aided in developing and b) the residency meet-up in like 9 months

well then... since y'guys wanted it... >:D
basically before HW2 ruins it I had this idea that since Helpi is currently uuuuuh malfunctioning as of RUIN... that the devs are like oh shit we need a new helper. So they base one on some old employee files and other records they find.
so ofc its michael. (but it doesnt know its based off michael shhh)
sorry abt the old art from august </3
is he evil? is he actually going to be helpful??? :3c eeeheheh
LOOK. Sister location is HIS game. If there is no michael then WHAT IS THE POINT.
(Pizza sim as well but i made these before we got the updated information OKAYYYY)
bonus bit
PS. designs are likely to change(ESP MICHAEL!!), but this is pretty much what i felt like i should share before HW2 comes out tomorrow LOL.

I just want to commend you artists, you writers, you game designers and cosplayers and anyone who does creative stuff out there on finding the courage to create. Many of you out there are plagued with depression, anxiety, lack of confidence, imposter syndrome and so many other worries and doubts about your ability to create. I am one such person, and though I have so many ideas and stories in my head i could explode, I lose confidence in my ideas and skill so rapidly from just holding a pen, basically nothing ever gets put on page. I'll tell myself I'm lucky if I even get a single drawing done in a year, frankly calling myself an artist is more a fraud than anything.
But you people, you creative amazing people manage to overcome that. No matter how good you think your work is or your level of skill, you draw and write and do it anyway, some of you even post it online for people to see, something I'm almost always ashamed about doing in fear of someone I know seeing it (why do u think I'm hiding here on tumblr where none of the much more talented people I know go). I've always admired yet envy you amazing people, who are passionate about art, who sit down and still make stuff after a long day of work because it makes u relax, who see art as joy than something you need to do because it's work, who would draw and create despite all the hardships and doubts and worries the world and yourself have place upon you.
The fact that you're able to get pass all that and get a sketch, a word, an idea down on a page, I think you all are so very incredibly brave. Much braver than me at least. No matter where you are on your creative journey right now, keep doing what you're doing and create. It is those that keep going that make it to success in the end. I unfortunately will not be one those people, but I hope that I can keep cheering others on instead.

I feel so sad this sucks i can't stop thinking about doing everything wrong with v I feel like im gonna cry I hate going to sleep early the day after I stay up it's just hours of laying down with stupid train of thoughts that come at night and I can't sleep I just want to sleep I don't want to feel so awful in the morning I don't want to feel awful right now I wish I could just get my thoughts in order get to the point and cry and be done with it. Nothing is going to change from yesterday to today to tomorrow I will just have been miserable and things won't change because of it I wish the world was kinder I wish the world wasn't so cruel I wish things were different I want to cry and now I can't even feel that anymore.
