If you like anticlimactic videos and liminal spaces in video games you should watch Any Austin on YouTube. I’ve been kind of obsessed with his videos lately. He’s got a whole series just looking at sky boxes in video games and another series calculating unemployment rates in iconic video game regions and cities.

He’s also got a series where he drowns video game characters and times how long it takes for them to lose their breath. And if you don’t find that intriguing I can’t relate to you

The thing about Peggy hill is you see her in some episodes and you might think well this woman has some lesbionic mannerisms. but the truth is she's just one of those very sporty southern moms who inexplicably gets away with not upholding their side of the gender roles even in communities where everyone is kinda expected to do that. Like she kinda gets to do what she wants. Cause she's Peggy that's just how Peggy is. And she has a husband and a kid so they're like ok fine I guess

Like if you told her she looked gay here she would laugh really awkwardly and be like Well, I hope you mean that as in "happy", because in that case I am positively gay. I am so gay and in love with my wonderful husband Hank. And Hank would be like *texan sigh* Peggy, You can't go around tellin people you're "gay" for me. People are gonna start to get the wrong idea. And then shed accuse Hank of being homophobic and double down

my favorite thing abt disco elysium is that you don't get to choose any meaningful stats for your character, just what aspects of his shitty frail body have yet to degrade fully and what kind of autism you have

Via @WritersGuildF at Twitter. (Not that this’ll help NBCUniversal, particularly when the LA City Department of Urban Forestry comes after them…)

This move, it seems likely, is damage control aimed at attempting to mitigate the situation before LA-based TV news crews show up.

(BTW: images in other threads here and on Twitter apparently confirm that Universal also did this illegal trimming three years ago, and the trees were in the process of trying to recover from it.)

UPDATE:  With cooperation from the Bureau of Street Services, we have found that no tree trimming permits have been issued over the last three years for this location outside Universal Studios.  Also, the City did not issue any tree trimming permits for the latest tree trimmings. https://t.co/8ge7LElRao pic.twitter.com/JChoiNvHhW  — LA City Controller Kenneth Mejia (@lacontroller) July 19, 2023ALT

PLEASE HELP.

Does anyone remember a FFXIV fic set somewhere between 5.0 and pre-5.3 I think it was M!WoL x Exarch/G'raha where WoL was trying to track down the courtship customs of the people of the First/Norvrandt with G'raha's help to propose to their boo, but it turns out boo is G'raha and it was cute???

I read it once and I'm desperately searching. I think it was on Tumblr, but could also have been on AO3 idk.

It could have been FFXIVWrite 2021 or 22 but the master list is so huge that it's going to take me a while and I'd appreciate help if anyone remembers.

FFXIV Tumblr community... ilu. I knew I could count on you.

It's "Something Borrowed, Something Blue" by rabbitprint. The same author as "A Taste of Home" (which is probably how I found it because someone was searching for that one and it popped up on my dash and I needed more.

I feel that my readership is an especially appropriate audience for this. :D

[ID: A sheet of paper with a decorative illumination on it; the illumination shows a stylized Excel spreadsheet with a green menu bar across the top. The menu bar reads "Needs more" in a gothic-style font, and the spreadsheet itself has the word "Spreadsheets" inked across it, with an illuminated "S" and decorative calligraphic lettering on the rest. It's sexy as hell.]

in the context of a piece of horror art, which fucks you up the most

1. visceral injury to a body part in a way you *could* experience

2. body horror (some physically impossible warping of the body)

3. abandonment by symbolic protective entity (god, gov, community, adults, etc.)

4. spiritual or religious abuse

5. failure to protect dependent & vulnerable others

6. unreality (being unclear what is real or not)

7. simple, intentional, interpersonal cruelty

8. mundane systemic violence

9. uncaring god/indifferent nature

10. realization of horror that already happened

examples of each:

  1. barefoot stepping on a nail
  2. gruesome werewolf transformation
  3. complete community ostracism or societal breakdown, the social contract to help each other doesn't apply to you or is fundamentally broken
  4. mother tells child they must do something horrible to prevent damnation, cults
  5. an older sibling forgets their younger sibling sleeping in the hot car
  6. was that your mom's voice in the kitchen or was that something that sounds like her?
  7. someone tortures a stranger simply because it's interesting and they're bored. cruelty is the point.
  8. people drinking coffee and joking around while they put in motion profound atrocities
  9. natural disasters, freezing/drowning/dehydrating/starving to death, being stranded or lost
  10. looking through photos from your solo camping trip, you find several of yourself asleep in the tent.

you want to help stop tumblr from murdering itself? here's how!

  • click this link and go to the support page, then click "contact support"
  • click on the category list and click on feedback
image
  • now you need to tell staff WHY putting in an algorithm will cause the site to fucking die, and be sure to be detailed and not a dick in it. theyre not gonna listen to feedback calling them assholes
  • viola, if @staff listens, we'll be fine

i encourage you to reblog this so we can get as many people leaving feedback as humanly possible. we need to let staff know this is an utterly terrible idea

tf2heritageposts

by the way, tumblr has turned off asks on all of their staff blogs, so this is the only way to tell tumblr how you feel

modmad

here it is again because uh. seems relevant.
