God I Love This Game. The Soundtrack Is Sick As Hell DnB And The Dopamine Of Breaking Through To A New

this is the big relate I have with kaladin, the difference being if I was in his physical health I'd definitely be at least a little less depressed

so. Kaladin. my dude is a bit self-obsessed.

which is not necessarily a bad thing! (admittedly his particular brand of not even acknowledging it grinds my gears a bit in a bad way but he is far from the only stormlight character who thinks they are the center of the world lol. I'd go so far as to say that *not* thinking you are the special little main character of the cosmere is more of an exception than the opposite lol)

but I actually do really appreciate this aspect of his character specifically because like. it's true. mentally ill people do tend to be more self-absorbed. (and kal has canon depression. shocking. I know.). we *do* tend to not realize how we come across or affect others due to being too focused on our own personal black cloud. we *do* tend to sometimes purposefully choose to stay miserable because it's just more comfortable. we *do* tend to kinda ignore the troubles from the people around us and put everything in relation to our own feelings (because *I'm* feeling like shit so *I've* earned it). and sometimes we don't even really realize it.

and to have Kaladin also do all that explicitly in the text (which i feel is an aspect that isn't touched upon that often in media in general?) and still be bound to the *honor* spren. I don't know. I find that really cool tbh.

(and also to hc shallan as having covert npd in wok only for her spren to be all about truth and lies and illusions in the following book,,,,,, sorry i know this is a kaladin post but i can't just not talk abt my beloved)

ok I guess this blog of mine is swiftly becoming "neat and silly things I'd like on a t-shirt". Medjed!

tis the season to remember Medjed aka The Smiter, an invisible egyptian deity with laser eyes and nonbinary swagger:

rotating them gently in my mind as they do a spiffy little dance number

a true Community is possible. it's been there all along, it's just being strangled.

The Panthers used to ride around and follow the police.

So the cops would pull over some sorry black person, and get ready to rough him up, but then there were the Panthers right behind them. Watching, armed to the teeth, and citing legal statutes. It’s inspirational.

Nuremberg 2! Nuremberg 2!

Oh my god

currently on my first play through. hot take half life 2 is pretty good. can't take any of it seriously because of all the gmod idiot box I watched in high school but it's cool to see how much later games tried to learn from it

Half-LIfe 2's 20th Anniversary Update is Almost Here!

And the game is currently Free on Steam for everyone to keep if you get it by the 18th. If you've never played HL2, now's the time. Or maybe wait until the update drops tomorrow. Up to you.

Seriously. Go. RIGHT FUCKING NOW, SOLDIER! THAT'S AN ORDER!

being raised non-religious but with Christian Religious Education at primary school, seeing the religion as it exists in the US today just comes across as mass cognitive dissonance
