Genuinely think that if you design a piece of technology that is user unfriendly you should be brought before a firing squad.

[PUT INTO PLACE, TIED DOWN AND ARRANGED, AND IS NEVER THE SAME, AGAIN.]<-listen to my favorite songs. VAMPIRES ARE WONDERFUL ARENT THEY. THE FLESH IS SO MUCH MORE DURABLE. SO MUCH STRETCHIER THAN HUMANS. THE STRESS DOESNT KILL A VAMPIRE THE SAME WAY IT DOES A HUMAN. YOU CAN TAKE THEM APART THREAD BY THREAD AND LEAVE THEM WIDE AWAKE WITHOUT WORRY OF THE BRAINMATTER SPOILING UNDER VINEGARY AGONY.
#cw gore#WEEEE WHIPPING OUT ALL MY BELOVED PIXEL HORROR GAME SOUNDTRACKS FOR THIS ONE#STILL A WIP#SORTA. FORKSFORKSFORKS INSPIRED ME TO START WORKIN AT IT AGAIN. AND NOW IT LIVES. IT LIIIVEESS!!!#MOSLT.Y ATLEAST. I MIGHT MESS W IT MORE LATER. WE SHALL SEE. ANYWAY GABRIEL MONTEZ HUH. WOW POOR GUY#THERES A FASCINATING FEELING THAT COMES WITH BEING ON A OPERATING TABLE.AND BEING IN IMMENSE PAIN#ONE OF MY FONDEST MEMORIES IS LAYING ON A DENTIST CHAIR. SHAKING AND INVOLUNTARILY CRYING AFTER MANY MANY#NEEDLES TO MY THE MOUTH. I METABOLIZE THE NUMBING STUFF QUICKLY APPARENTLY. THEY NEEDED ALOT OF NUMBING SHOTS#BUT I WASNT AFRAID OR DISTRESSED. THE DENTIST WAS VERYVERY NICE AND ALSO UH. PRETTY. BUT THATS BESIDE THE POINT#THE POINT IS. THAT IT WAS FASCINATING TO REALIZE MY PHYSICAL RESPONSE TO PAIN UNDER A CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT#I DIDNT KNOW HOW EASY IT WAS TO SHAKE AND TO CRY PRYVIOUS TO THAT EXPERIENCE.MY DENTAL ADVENTURES CONTINUE#THEY CONTINUE TO HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHAT ITS LIKE FOR PAIN TO BOIL AWAY THE TIME. TO DISTORT THE PASSING HOURS AND CONSUME EVERY THOUGHT#DO YOU REMEMBER PAIN? THE MOST SEVERE PAIN IN YOUR LIFE? NOW WILL YOU IMAGINE RED LIGHTS? RED LIGHTS AND SHIFTING FIGURES#NOW WILL YOU IMAGINE PAIN UNRELENTING.PAIN WORLD SHATTERING.PAIN IMMORTAL.CAN YOU IMAGINE BEING PULLED APART#THE HUMAN MIND CAN ONLY WITHSTAND SO MUCH PAIN BEFORE IT SHUTS DOWN AND HIDES.IT NEEDS TO PROTECT ITSELF AFTERALL. PAIN CAN ALTER#PAIN SHIFTS THE CHEMISTY OF THE MIND OF THE FLESH OF THE SOUL. FOR HUMANS ATLEAST. BUT YOU ARE NO LONGER HUMAN#YOU CHOSE OTHERWISE DIDNT YOU BOY.BECAUSE YOU WANTED MORE.STATUS.POWER.APPROVAL.SECURITY.SAFET.Y.#OHHH YOU CAN WITHSTAND THE PAIN FOR THAT. FOR ALL THAT. YOU WERENT TOLD THERE WOULD BE PAIN BUT YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WERE PROMISED.#ITS ALL WORTH IT IN THE END. NOW LETS JUST HOPE SOME BLONDE TWERP DOESNT PROVE TO BE STRONGER THAN THE STRONGEST PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE#LETS HOPE NO ONE FUCKS THIS UP. LETS HOPE NO ONE FUCKS THIS UP. I LOST MY TRAIN O THOUGHT#anyway dawww poorr gabeee that shit probably huuurrrrtttss but so much time has passed that your body got tired of screaming and squirming#why havnt you passed out yet? maybe you might as well have at this point. like sleeping with your eyes open and your nerves awake#OH HEY FUNFACT ABT THE ART. I FOUGHT W IT ALOT. TOOK A LONG WHILE FOR ME TO BE REMOTELY HAPPY W THIS.#i was thinking abt pixel horror video games when i made it.just as i do with all great things ofc ofc#i love you pixel horror game i love yooouuuuu.i struggled so much w the colors for so LONNGG UHGHGHGH but im finally happy...im finally fre

That one chef saying that the worst thing about a bad boss is how they unlock that behavior in you and seeing Carmy mirror the attitude of the chef that terrorized him and gave him panic attacks and then ending the season with Syd having a panic attack because of the stress of working with Carmy...diabolical.
#idk if it's a little too on the nose or not (i literally just finished the season so i haven't had time to sit with it) but that whole#element is so interesting (and so devastating). and the ways that mirrors all of Nat's worries about continuing the dysfunction of her#family now that she has a kid...#i also think its a good portrayal of how not addressing your trauma and leaving things to fester can end up hurting other people way more#than it hurts you. like even if Carmy is okay with choosing to not have a life or to be close with anyone (which. debatable) he's#not the only one whose life gets fucked by that. the mess just radiates out until it hits everyone around him and he ends up creating#the same circumstances that caused his dysfunction in the first place.#even if evil joel mchale chef is right (a+ casting btw very punchable face) and carmy needs to ruin his life to be a good chef#--which is a big if--he's actively making the people around him less able to do their jobs. which then makes the people around them#less able. and so on. so in the end it's still net negative. and like. chef terry proves that he's actually completely wrong#the environment in her kitchen is the exact opposite and everyone is operating at an insane level anyway no abuse necessary#this season was definitely the weakest of the 3 but i rly wanna see where they go next. and they better drop the next bit soon bc that was#in no way complete#the bear#the bear season 3#carmy berzatto#sydney adamu#the bear spoilers

Whenever the Lin Kuei go out on a mission, they probably use fake names that they draw out of a hat to avoid suspicion.
Bi-Han crossing fingers: Please don't be a awful name, please for the love of the gods-And it's Blake. Bland but it would be worse.
Cyrax: I got Conner. Not bad.
Kuai: I got Kandance...I don't know how to feel about this.
Sektor: For some reason, I got Simon. It just doesn't fit me.
Smoke cringing: I got Willow. It sucks. Can I pick another one?
Sektor: We don't have time for it.
Smoke groans.
Ha! But what if those dorks actually make up the weirdest name or pick the most difficult to say to mess up with people? I bet Tomas could pick Polish name like Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz just to be the pain in the ass while Kuai Liang and Bi-Han go with all the most unique variants of Ice or Cold in any possible language - or in case of Bi-Han, calling himself Shang Tsung just to irks one sorcerer if he is in mood to annoy him XD. Cyrax joins for the lulz, while Sektor is the only one trying to be not suspicious at all (and somehow always drawing the most attention because his life can’t be easy for once, not with those crazy bastards around 🤣)
But then again, Bi-Han may not bother at all; with the Mythologies: Sub-Zero's storyline, it seems he is destined for quick type of missions, as in get in, kill and/or steal and get out so I guess, one way or another, not many people will be left alive to tell his real name…

Time for another underappreciated episode highlight: Gridlock is absolutely stunning on what it does on several levels. The world building (the absolutely great build up of the drug alley/reveal about bliss later, the shots of the Doctor climbing through cars showing off all of the different species/characters, the chats through the car radios/moment of faith, the continuation of the New New York plotline), the character work (the Doctor realizing how much he screwed up and could possibly lose Martha, Martha calling him out on his lies, the relationship with the Face of Boe), the set up for future plotlines (the religious metaphors that would continue to Last of the Time Lords, "You are Not Alone," hell, even the Face of Boe shielding the Novice from the virus if you watch Torchwood/Children of Earth), and the music. God, the music! I've relistened to the track "Boe" at the end of the episode on repeat since I first rewatched it a couple of days ago, it's so hopeful both because of what the Doctor and Martha and the Face of Boe have given New New York and because it's indicative of where the Doctor and Martha's relationship is going and the whole episode is absolutely amazing and yet it feels so overlooked by the fandom in favor of Blink. Season 3 has so many amazing episodes, possibly the strongest run save Season 1, and Gridlock is an amazing example of the sheer scale of storytelling you can tell in a single episode of Doctor Who.

If you're sitting here saying, "Well, I prefer one way, but many games don't offer that, so I taught myself another way instead," I am asking about the first part! How would you play if the games you had to change your style for had just let you play it your way in the first place?
If you voted or are interested in the results, please reblog for a larger sample size. :)

thinking about how people (generally the ones that don't like anakin, let's be real) whenever they want to use arguments about how bad he is -as if the ppl that like anakin aren't aware that murder is bad- usually will use "you're taking away all of Anakin's agency by blaming Palpatine or how the order didn't help him"
Because, yes, it was his decision. But in the context of the story, he actually had very little agency. And that's not downplaying anything, is not throwing away his character and making him less interesting: The lack of agency is a fundamental part of his character, is glued into his core, Anakin's life, 90% of it, was about not making his own decisions because the slave mentality always followed him.
Is just a bit tiring, of course he isn't innocent, and of course you can't say he's a good person. But is a fact that he was groomed and abused and tortured by the man that manipulated the senate and the jedi order, is a fact he grew up in an extremely hyperviolent enviroment to the point he makes jokes about people blowing up at age 9
palpatine played chess against himself using the whole galaxy as his board and even the jedi order was fooled, and you expect a extremely traumatized kid with very little support that grew into viweing Palpatine as a father figure, to best him? Yes, he did have a choice, but in his fucked up, very damaged mind with zero treatment at all, how much agency did Anakin really have?

[ID: digital fanart of the owl house. The piece features Luz, the collector, and kid belos. Luz is in her season 3 design holding her bat and a backpack with her palismen inside. Both items are at her side and she looks on at the audience with a determined expression. The collector is on her left and is facing away from us with a mischievous face. Kid belos is on Luz's right, holding a wooden sword in one hand. The shading on him is reminiscent of a 1600s ink ink drawing. The background is black and white text above the characters reads "thanks to them, 15/10/22". End ID]
Happy owl house eve folks! Sorry about the UK date system <3
#the owl house#toh#luz noceda#kid belos#the collector#toh belos#ME WHEN THE COMING OF AGE STORY USES ANTAGONISTS W/ ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT TO ACCENTUATE THE HERO'S GROWTH 😭#seriously tho the way that luz (and hunter and eda to a lesser extent) act as like. narrative mirrorballs for nearly all the major bad guys#it's so good. chefs kiss#it's part of why a character like lilith is so rich she has SO many characters to bounce off of!#and again i think it's neat how toh has (so far- we'll see abt that ending) made a story abt a hero who like. has an escapist fantasy#of going to the demon realm and becoming a witch and running away from all her problems forever#and the storh tears that fantasy down! it says that it is objectively selfish and childish and unrealistic#and then. it still lets luz love the place she's in? the boiling isles is a real place and not just a vehicle for aesops#luz finds out her escapist fantasy world is a messed up place and yknow what? she sticks around to make it better#in both big and small ways#and belos and the collector contrast her perfectly in that sense- they both tyrannically/carelessly reshape the world around them#and absolutely refuse to accept a world that doesn't operate on their childish pretenses#and the only real difference between them and luz is the fact that luz learns and grows and changes#belos refuses to do this under pain of death and the collector is yet undecided#and whatever direction he goes in will probably define not just luz as a character but the owl house's thesis as a whole#in other words#I'm ridiculously excited for thanks to them#it airs at 2 am for me but i will still be staying up late to watch it and live chat w/ the besties. autism at work

Not sneeze just mental health rambling in the tags
#I’ve spent a very long time trying to change my brain so I can just operate at a neurotypical level#it’s always been impossible and I feel like shit for it#so recently I finally just said#I am not neurotypical and never will be no matter what I do!#so I need to be kind to myself and make the accommodations I need for myself!#which is a work in progress but idk. it’s kind of painful that the neurotypical people in my life act like I’m asking for an arm and a leg#when I’m very genuinely asking if slight changes could be made between us#I absolutely don’t expect anyone to change their lifestyle for me or anything#it’s stuff like not holding long conversations when I’m in the middle of writing because it messes up my flow#and I tell my family beforehand! hey I’m gonna write for a couple of hours does anyone need anything from me before#and they say no! but then ten minutes later will start telling me a story about their day#which I’m okay to hear BEFORE I start a writing session or AFTER#and I goddamn communicate that!!! but they act like I’m asking for nobody to ever speak to me again#another thing is that I CANNOT eat anything past an expiration date#I know it’s still probably good but my brain will just keep saying YOURE GONNA DIE OF FOOD POISONING#so say the half gallon of milk is past its date#I will buy a fresh one to start using myself but I don’t toss the old one because I know others don’t care as much#and they they complain that I’m wasting milk#like I’m sorry it’s 1) my money and 2) how is it being wasted when y’all are happy to drink it til it’s done?#idk man!! neurotypical people sure do say that shit should be easy for neurodivergent people#but they sure do struggle to be slightly accommodating without bitching#idk rant over peace out

still working on this ‘fuck a ‘forgive your abuser’ arc’ 3x11/3x12 fix it fic and it’s like 13.5k gd help me
#gav gab#ted lasso spoilers#writing liveblog#I SIMPLY HAVE A LOT TO SAY#i worry it's turning out like....... preachy or Not Characterful or whatever#bc i truly don't want it to just be a psa about why this shit sucks#and i truly don't believe a lot of how that was handled was In Character - AT LEAST NOT THE WAY THEY DID IT#(i can believe ted could make a mistake like that is what i mean but the narrative Did Not frame it as a mistake)#(as something he said because he was clouded by his own baggage - WHICH IS FINE but that is Not how they portrayed it)#(and i believe the other people in jamie's life if they knew that had happened would uh)#(have SOME THINGS to say about it)#(and in general no we will not be endorsing 'being abused made you who you are (positive)' no sir not on my watch)#anyways#i truly am operating by what i think is In Character and an Engaging story to tell#(i.e. it's jamie trying to force himself down the 'forgive your dad or at least Try To you know For You!' path and uh#having a bit of a breakdown because of it)#but i worry it's gonna Come Off Badly yknow#anyways kicks this tag ramble under the couch#i'm writing it anyway because frankly i need it after all of that abuse apologist mess#and i'm continually bothered by a lot of people also saying that the forgiveness thing was Fine and Good but actually contacting james#was where they drew the line#bc im like no that was. also a really fucking shitty thing to have happen#if it had JUST been the 'forgive. For You.' thing? it would still suck#bc that was a very fast interaction with ZERO nuance or awareness of how fucking loaded and brutalizing forgiveness as a concept is#to a LOT of abuse victims/survivors bc of the way it's been weaponized against us#if you mean 'let go and put it down/stop carrying it/be free of it/etc' then say that. forgiveness is just too far gone for me at this point#abuse ment

Was Kaeya and Diluc’s whole Confrontation before or after he left the Knights? Bc if it took place AFTER…
It wouldn’t have been fire from Diluc’s Vision that hurt Kaeya, now would it?
#☆ ┆ ( .ooc. );#//Bc according to the manhwa; Luc left his Vision as his resignation#//And allogenes without their Visons can’t use their respective elements#//So then#//It would have been the DELUSION’s fire that hurt Kae. Not DILUC’s#//Idk; good concept; I’m pretty sure Kae’s Vision story contradicts it tho#//But then it WOULD make sense why Luc was so quick to draw his blade and fight him over his truth#//Instead of hearing him out and trusting him; considering how close they were said to have been#//‘like twins’ they were said to be#//I do like this idea ngl#//WAIT WAIT#//THAT WOULD ALSO EXPLAIN WHY KAE WAS SO QUICK TO BLAME LUC FOR COLLEI’S FIRE CRIMES#//BC HE RECOGNIZED THE DELUSION’S FIRE#//I don’t think he actually SAW Crepus use it#//So either he could be operating on what he read in Luc’s discarded account of the incident#//Or he somehow SAW the flames firsthand to suspect Luc of all people FIRST#//Bc when he threw the accusations; Luc didn’t have his Vision back yet; so WHY accuse him of a fire crime otherwise#//Idk maybe I’m thinking too hard abt nothing lmao#//But it’s still a good plot bunny!#//Prolly also would make sense why Kae still wants to stick around him and not hold a grudge over the Confrontation either#//Bc Luc wouldn’t have been in his right mind; having the Delusion on him. the thing could have seriously messed with his emotional state#hc; kaeya#hc; diluc#//Canon between my muses on here; can vary for respective counterparts

Trying to figure out how to word the fact that old people in a future setting would be elite video game experts.
Like with handling a controller, like all these kids these days and their newfangled computer brains, back in MY day we could type 500 words a minute with our FINGERS and had the twitch responses of a god.
Doc headshots Deimos 6 times in their game and Deimos has no idea what the fuck is going on because he doesn’t know how to aimbot.

#taylor’s roll put#has me thinking sooooo much about H’s whole pr/brand/strategy#and my thoughts have been like falling into place#and it’s just very frustrating#to me bc her absolute MASTERY of building her brand#makes hshq’s mess#even more messy for me#there are MANY points to bring#but the one I am thinking tonight#is how she operates on an even bigger platform so she is one of the few ppl I think are proper to compare H to#and she shows how you can have absolutely crafted to the tee strategies where almost nothing is spontanous and everything is planned and $$#is front and center and YET feel personal and intimate and like she is our buddy and that we know her and she knows us and she likes us#the reason given for H’s distant persona is privacy but what this comparison shows is that you can get privacy without giving up warmth#harry on stage is such a drastic contrast to every other imput we have from him/his brand its kinda jarring#but it doesnt HAVE TO BE THIS WAY and he doesn’t need to sacrifice privacy to still craft a warmer closer persona. thats what I have been#thinking tonight. like I know 98% of you don’t follow or even like her. but trust ME when I say that being a fan of both its like oil#and water when it comes to how their public persona is. i genuinely feel like I know her. I DONT!! but thats what I feel. and I only feel li#I know H bc I am a super fan. but thats not what his brand portrays. also and this point is more nuanced so bear w me. there is an element#that comes from this brand of Cool and Private that i KNOW is completely inaccurate like I would put my hand on the fire over this but#hshq OFTEN puts out things or implies it that H is Cool and Different and would not like want to hang out w normal ppl that are not Cool#which one I don’t care if it is true and two I dont think it is true but its something that doesnt sit well w ppl. taylor has a persona that#seems like even tho she is a trillionaire she would still sit on your couch and drunk your grocery store wine and talk about dumb shit#this is largely because of ppl like fucking KID HARPOON who are into makinng harry seem like a weird etheral being and not just. a dude#but anyway. i think this is not great. and outside of this corner MANY ppl are fans of both like me. and this is v noticeable even if ppl#dont articulate it like this. and I think he is gonna have to pivot this strategy. i just hope they do it before ppl get more annoyed#and start being even meaner to him than they already are
