Bewear is such a good Pokemon because "one of the most dangerous Pokemon in Alola is a bear" sounds completely reasonable until you learn that it looks like this
and then you're like "oh that's not so scary" and then you read the Pokedex and it's like "this thing breaks people's spines"

The way that Motorsport Italy have quadrupled down on their claims about the reasons for Checo being kept at Red Bull really makes me think they have some very juicy insider info (quite possibly through their connections at VCarb).

honestly critical role has never been more relatable than Caduceus/Taliesin in the Rumblecusp arc
being put in an environment where you SHOULD thrive, only to fail comically at literally any given opportunity and discovering for the first time that you have some surprising capacity for resentment for something you love that you've built your whole identity on
also I know Caduceus is dumb as rocks in an education sense but those investigation checks they kept having to make felt like they SHOULD be wisdom checks at this point (because common fucking sense would tell you to just hand your shit to someone else once you notice you lose possessions every night) so watching him spectacularly fail every single one of those felt exactly like my life feels right now. Like I should know all the ways to prevent this and yet every day I fail again at the same task right out the gate
the absolute resignation this is all met with. like even for Caduceus that was a level of nonreaction I never thought possible. not a zen unbotheredness, just complete defeat. there is so much frustration underneath the surface and yet such a complete lack of energy to try and fight it, truly only going through a pandemic and/or a real weird mental health funk can breed the vibe of "help. it's again."
also, as someone who doesn't really give a shit about sex, like Caduceus, and prides themselves on their eloquence, like Taliesin, I've never seen myself so clearly represented as i have in the character and the player's combined struggle against the horny-twelve-year-olds energy of this cast
I too have experienced the "i see you giggling over something i said that wasn't even that much of an innuendo but i'm just gonna keep talk- oh no yeah no what i've said now is just a much bigger innuendo" so many times
and then you try and choose your words more carefully. because that's like, the one thing you're good at. and discover that a) once the giggles get going, it doesn't fucking matter and b) there's now not one synonym left in your brain that's not an open invitation
and now you're somehow the least invested in the joke but the most embarrassed by it
"how much of your brain is just innuendo???" the number of times i've wanted to ask people that
the deep disappointment when Travis joined into the madness
living vicariously through the mumbled asides of "all of you. it's all of you" "it's nonstop!"
also watching your group make a TERRIBLE plan but being unable to come up with a better one, so instead of poking holes in it until all your friends hate you you just quietly watch the catastrophe happen, and pray you'll have enough restraint left by the end of it to not say "i could've told you so" out loud

How am I, a native French speaker and Feligami connaisseuse, only now realising that Felix had a coup de foudre for Kagami, who in fact wields lightning

Lancer the RPG is a game which features some of the best frameworks of organisations, governmental and non-governmental alike, devoted to saving lives. Whole entities dedicated to liberation from slavery and oppression. Entire stellar hegemonies that have enshrined giving everyone basic human rights. This concept is so ingrained in the setting, it practically affects every single aspect of how people interact with the universe at large
because if you talk to a lancer player there’s an 80% chance they’re gonna casually talk about doing some incredibly fucked up shit they did in a game to someone and go ‘isn’t that hilarious’
