i think gamers dismissed the notion of keeping score in non-arcadey titles too easily i think. some games are a lot funner if you try to play them with score in mind
#like how do you get a high score in the classic sonic games?#get a lot of rings. keep them to the end of the level. and beat it fast as fuck for a good time bonus#that's a fun way to play the game!!!!#honestly the special stages in sonic 1 feel like they play into encouraging that too#keep enough rings and you get to play a little bonus stage at the end of the level. to get a little doodad#that only really serves to increase your score#and also give you a nicer ending cutscene#sonic 2 giving you an opportunity to play the bonus stages at every checkpoint is nice in theory#gives you more chances to do it per level#still rewards you for keeping your rings#but then after you leave the special stage all your rings are gone D:#and also it's much more of a pace breaker to do it in the middle of a level rather than inbetween...#still i understand it in theory#then sonic 3 made it so you don't *have* to keep your rings. you just have to find a giant ring#which makes sense for that game's more exploration focused level design and play style#y'know since it introduced knuckles and everything#lot to think about game design-wise :>

|| 🍍• Unpopular opinion time…maybe…
…but I hope Husk was a fucking SAVAGE overlord.
• I hope he was an overlord that you’d think twice before fucking with.
• I hope he was actually the opposite of the Husk we fucking love from all those Overlord fics of him.
• I hope that one of - if not the only reason - he thinks he can’t be redeemed/doesn’t want to be redeemed, is because he knows how fucking god awful he could be.
• I hope - in a way - Alastor coming along, rocking Husk’s shit and stealing his soul, gave Husk the biggest fattest reality karma bitchslap he needed to realise how vile he was dealing in souls - in people - as if they were mere commodities.
• I hope he runs into someone who he used to own, and, with that, I HOPE we see how he truly feels about his past.
Why do I think this is all important?
Because I think it becomes massively important when thinking about his budding association with Angel Dust.
Someone who is currently also dealing with that torment of not owning their soul, but someone who HASN’T dabbled on the flip side of being in the Overlord role.
Someone who would likely have only bad associations with Overlords.
How would Angel really react to knowing Husk’s overlord story in its entirety rather than the glimpse we see him learn?

I just wanna know HOW a reaper could reproduce? They are dead, essentially walking suicides, right? To me Undertaker and Claudia were married in life and when she died he couldn’t take it and took his own life, thus becoming a reaper. So still the same hc just……different? I guess? No hate to you or your blog (I actually really love this blog) and I really hope this doesn’t come off as rude but I was just wondering if you had any hcs as to how the fuck the DEAD could have a baby??
Hiya anon! Not rude at all 💙 I appreciate the love and that we have different hc/theories/takes!
All that being said...

god. vessel talking about jaws (kerrang interview)
and saying “you don’t know someone until you have seen them destroy something”
I AM CHEWING THE BARS OF MY ENCLOSURE I AM SO ABNORMAL ABOUT THIS
#ramble on exie#sleep token#sleep token vessel#i have always loved jaws#because it’s always struck me as such an intense and frustrated song#he’s asking this person to show him their worst. to be their worst. so that he knows them#but it’s still unhealthy because like. it’s also implied (to me) that this ‘worst’ is how vessel perceives this persons love#i cannot be normal about this band omfg#my sibling was laughing at me yesterday for being so passionate about carl jung’s work#and i was like ‘you don’t understand. i wrote a think piece about jungian theory and sleep token. i am insane’#anyways. jaws is another song i could write an essay on. but that will have to wait until my next mental breakdown

The intimacy is important to show the contrast between Thomas and Orlok in the movie. Thomas repeatedly fails throughout the movie. He fails communication and understanding test with Ellen, he fails self-imposed masculinity test in general, he fails sex and intimacy test with Ellen. He even fails fully acceptance and full love test with Ellen because till the end he expects that Ellen can be somehow cured from her powers, and killing Orlok should do the trick, meaning he’s incapable of just accept her fully the way she’s without trying to correct it. The part that Ellen was happy for awhile with Thomas because for that time her powers were blocked is a big giveaway, that it’s already in fact wasn’t working between them from the start because if she could only be happy with him while suppressing huge part of herself, then such foundation was bound to crumble. Orlok meanwhile fulfilled the crucial basics for Ellen - understanding and acceptance of her nature and powers in full, intimacy and sexual realisation the way Ellen wished and imagined.
yessss exactly - as much as I do like Thomas as a character, and as much as he might care for Ellen, he's not a good fit for her, and she knows this!.. She wants, desperately, the sort of emotional connection that he will never be able to give without first unpacking the prejudices and insecurities that instruct his entire life and his opinion of her; and while that is not impossible, it is still quite unrealistic, given his background and societal context.
The reason Orlok is able to think outside those bounds, despite also being a man from an even older society, is because he exists in opposition to its restrictions. His attitudes are not reflective of whatever people around him would've thought of women or queerness or neurodivergence when he was alive; they are, however, directly informed by his making "covenant with the devil." Unlike the proper, god-fearing, Rational people that dictate Ellen's daily life, he accepts and desires every aspect of her that is considered "sinful" - her sexuality, her lack of deference, her eccentricities; and it is this fundamental understanding that she craves.
TL;DR -
"you could never satisfy me the way he does" was about emotional connection, not sex - and, of course, Thomas went straight ahead and proved her right
a relationship that is blocking her powers and allows her to be "happy" as long as she acts normal and hides her real self is not a good relationship. regardless of how one may interpret her connection with Orlok, Ellen's marriage to Thomas is an allegory for being in the closet/masking - and I personally think she deserves better
#nosferatu#nosferatu 2024#nosferatu (2024)#ellen hutter#thomas hutter#count orlok#ellen x orlok#ellenorlok#nosferatu meta#nosferatu analysis#gothic horror#gothic romance#horror film analysis#vampires#vampirism#ALSO AS AN ASIDE:#on the Doylist level Orlok's vampirism is symbolic of Ellen's fear/guilt vis à vis her true self#she's into his monstrosity bc it's a visual metaphor for the ugliness of accepting oneself#on a Watsonian level however. and perhaps even more importantly#women (and ppl in general) prefer an 'ugly' man who understands them over a pretty boy who doesn't fully see them as a person#it's about emotional connection#and i think Those people who act like she Should have chosen or did choose Thomas don't like to think abt that#i mean just LOOK at this fucking situation#Orlok's look is heavily inspired by the og Vlad Dracula. so it's not that far a stretch to say he's likely got erectile dysfuction#given that it's been a popular theory as to the Impaler's obsession with. uh. Impaling#so he's a 400yo rotting corpse who can't even get it up and he STILL had her eyes rolling back into her head#while all Tommy boy managed was jackhammer simulation 3000 fully clothed

This is the source El finds in the void and it's twofold. It's the father. In this case it's Neil but he's just a stand-in for Lonnie.
The other source is the Steel Works warehouse BRIMBORN but that's not how it is presented to us throughout season 3.
It reads more like BRIMBORN as a shadow covers up the B pretty consistently, making us unable to read it
Warning for discussions of CSA under the cut
We also get the full address of the steelworks warehouse and it's
Brimborn Steelworks 6522 Cherry Oak Drive
This is how where the MF possessed Billy. Cherry Oak Drive
Lonnie also means oak tree
Max also tells us Billys full address
Billy Hargrove 4819 Cherry Lane
Billy lives on Cherry Lane but he lost himself and got possessed by the father at Cherry Oak Drive. A lane to drive on...
Source
Billy was a Cherry Lane at first until he got corrupted in the Cheery Oak Drive
Billy is short for William and a stand-in for Will
We also learn more about cherries and their availability
Hopper says there is no cherry in the 7-Eleven. Apparently they had only strawberry
That's not entirely true tough as we see with Alexei here. In fact it seems like they have only cherry and cola. But Hopper still drove there even though it was way out of his way. So I'm sure he would have gotten cherry if it were there, right?
Well, maybe it's more like an either/or situation with the Seven and the Eleven in which one number is the cherry and the other is the strawberry . Maybe they are mutually exclusive
As we've already seen though, it's Will who is already associated with cherries via association of Billy which in turn can only mean one thing
Eleven is the strawberry
But
In the end there is no difference. Cherry and strawberry taste the same. They are the same. Just sugar on ice
But what's a strawberry anyway?
Source
First of all of this goes with the Will Byers has DID theory.
For the longest time I was convinced that Will created Eleven on the day he vanished in the woods but I don't think that's what has happened any longer. I think she was there long before. Ready to take over whenever Will needed her to use her superpowers to absorb what he couldn't face.
That's why Eleven is a strawberry. She was there ready to save Will whenever Lonnie sold off his son to buy dr*gs. It's why there is still a cola next the cherry in the 7-Eleven. Coca-Cola or just coke. Other sources also say that a Strawberry is a woman who willingly sells se*ual favors to buy dr*gs. (although willingly is hardly the word I would use here)
In the beginning of the first season El could barely speak and was more like a child who didn't understand anything. This was also done for her protection throughout the years I think. The less she understood what happened, the better it is for her (or so the reasoning goes)
But she still understood the most important part
#cw csa#stranger things#stranger things theory#will byers#el hopper#lonnie byers#eleven#my meta#if you google the postal code of the steelworks address#you'll find a computer chip that was commonly used in the 80s#which also had a bug#but i understand too little of these things to make any sense of it#so i'm leaving it out here#i still don't know what the ice part is all about#i know he likes it cold but why?#why are are both will and el associated with ice?#but honestly thinking about all of what has happened to will and el#just makes me sad

Sorry can't be horny too busy playing DOOM mods after myhouse.pk3 got updated
#yes i know that there are aspects of myhouse taken directly from the creator's divorce#(which we only know of because his ex-wife posted pictures of the real house abt the mod which got found and spread and people pried)#but like. i understand how you can interpet “It wasn't meant to be” to be about the divorce#admittedly i havent thought about it too hard#but the airport bathroom is just like. very clearly about hrt to me#i suppose it could be an allegory to abortion but that's disregarding the change in restroom signage#really what i'm interested in is how childhood plays into the overarching themes#like the daycare the large brutalist house and “The kid needs a milkshake” all feel like they should point to something#but are all fairly disconnected outside of vague “childhood”#iirc the airport flights spell HELP ANNA#which would be the A seen in S+A#S being Steven. the dead guy#but then what is Thomas Allord's place#does the new TV area mean anything about the story itself or is it some sort of meta commentary about the reaction to myhouse?#is the mirrorvile a representation of the grim reaper?#what were the quarter and payphone intended for?#i suppose that Thomas/Anna could have gotten pregnant with the pills signifying birth control - the abortion maybe from being transmasc?#hence the signs#i saw a theory on doomworld i liked#the different houses signify different choices#there IS a child in the mirrored world. but there isn't in the original#there's a crashed car near the gas station. it didn't crash in the mirrored world and a crime happened at the gas station#maybe - Steven (Veddge) only dies if you CHOOSE for him to. you have to burn the house down to see his obituary.#by “different choices” i really mean “different realities”#where things are changed - some choices some accidents#at the fake beach you choose to accept a fake win. one that isn't real. an act. the real beach you fight for a true happiness. S without A#but still content. happy. in a real life that isn't perfect.#Happiness has to be fought for.#perhaps the house fire is simply Steve choosing to die with Tom#how heavily does House of Leaves play into the story of myhouse? what can be learned from it to apply to the story?

Listen‚ I understand people being upset about the possession plot line. It had an amazing build up and it wasn't used I was a bit annoyed at first too but it just wasn't meant to end in Arc 2.
It's unknown if Callum has fully done dark magic again‚ he probably has and if he hasn't I suppose it's been foreshadowed enough that he will. There's the overwhelming Kosmo mentioned‚ he still has Ziard's staff and maybe the cursed coin as well. He will also be even more powerful than before which means Aaravos possessing him would be even a bigger threat. We have Rayla making him promising he wouldn't choose her over the greater good yet we get his dark self confirming later he would do anything to save her (and Ezran and co but we know she's his biggest Achilles' Tendon and the narrative is leading into that). I believe the possession/dark magic plot line will be even juicier in Arc 3 considering what's being presented.
#if we get it ofc#i understand the frustration since arc 3 is not confirmed#i see people saying that callum should have died and brought back and I cant agree with that#i dont think Callum dying (even if being brought back) would be a good solution#but idk how to explain#anyways i cant wait for this plot to develop further#also callum still has self doubt looking at his last scene#pls greenlight arc 3 we have been waiting like 3 years for this plot#i believe in her#callum#tdp#the dragon prince#theories#rayllum#(kinda)#i still believe in the salvation theory#shes his star!

Random thought.
I think Manny will never truly understand Diego and Sid's issues with blood family. The three unite in the loss of it but Manny's mate and cub loved him for who he was and apparently never doubted that.
Diego's pack did not see his worth as a member but as a tool and weapon, their "love" was conditional, manipulative and fake
And Sid's family, from my understanding, simply hated his guts SO much they just prefered to abandon him and possibly leave that social creature to die in the wild.
Something I would've loved to see would be the trio bonding and seeing these things about each other. Manny loves and protects and connects with the boys but Sid and Diego can have an intimate connection bonding over hateful/abusive families and their struggle accepting that.
But maybe too could Diego and Manny understand each other by their serious masks formed by need and their need to protect their herd, as well as maybe issues of self-worth if said mission to protect their loved ones fail. Idk. (I think they had something a bit like that in the third movie? But focusing a lot on their masculinity and, not gonna lie, their fragile view of it- Idk, I'm not a born man, I don't get it-)
#Something something I miss the polycule#I know Manny is monogamous it's just funny to call them that#Also headcanon: Sid uses humor to deal with his feelings of loneliness and abandonment#Could also explain his womanizer attitude of the first movie- If he can't find love with his family- who are basically TIED to him#He may as well try to get love and attention without compromise through flings with women#Also headcanon: Diego was indoctrinated by his former pack and may have struggles with self-worth by trying to be useful to the herd#He may struggle to understand how unconditional love truly feels like and may feel insecure if the herd truly loves him or not-#Maybe also struggle with guilt about his former pack? because a part of him may still think the sabers loved him and he betrayed them#Bro didn't the creators of the movies go in directions like this? from what I remember of the sequels- Sid and Diego aren't background char#-acters- They have potential and depth you can come up with and still have it make sense#Anyways-#ice age movie#ice age 2002#ice age 1#blue sky studios#manny the mammoth#manny ice age#diego the sabertooth#diego ice age#sid the sloth#sid ice age#ice age theory#Ig#Ice age headcanons#my headcanons#What was the Diego x Sid ship called?- I like it a lot- That's all I have after I discovered Manny is monogamous#My trio dreams were shattered#diego x sid#sid x diego#tw family issues
