The adult content warning on this post is really just the icing on the cake

i do think its fun that in Undertale the two characters who are, like, Conventionally Attractive are both ghosts possessing artificial bodies. like Undyne isn't a muscle mommy she's built like a lolipop and kinda gangly and gap toothed. the boss monsters come the closest and they're some kind of magical royalty, and even then Asgore is... kinda fat? and toriel is a brick. like actually look at that sprite, she's a brick.

actually im sorry cancel the rest of the post im mad now that this woman who is broad shouldered and has no indication of breasts gets turned into like an hourglass anime MILF by the fandom like genuinely Alphys's physique is closer to like 90% of toriel art i see i'm genuinely kinda pissed at how this piece of art about cartoon monsters depicts a very realistic variety of bodies in women and that gets paved over in fan content

also shout out to temmie for making a skeleton fat. incredibly based.

it's been a million years (eleven months) since I posted anything here - I'm alive and well but have been working on other projects, including a graphic novel that I think will appeal to enjoyers of Watson's Sketchbook (more information on that...later). To tide you over, here's a little pre-Reichenbach snippet, made on the theme of 'Home' for the Very Sincerely Yours zine @very-sincerely-yours-zine - thank you for asking me to participate! It looks like copies of the full zine are sold out but PDFs are available here!

I attended a campfire presentation by a park ranger who described Osprey as "both the pickiest and least picky eaters of all time."

They're the pickiest because they only eat things they can catch by plunging into at least six feet of water feet-first and are as close to their maximum carrying capacity as possible, to maximize calories-per-trip.

They're the Least Picky because so long as something fits those parameters, Osprey will go for it.

The ranger then showed us an extensive slide show of the local osprey in flight with their catches, which included: trout, carp, snakes, bass, eels, small sharks, ducks, surprisingly large catfish, a nerf football, muskrats, a summer sausage that fell off a boat, sneakers, a fish previously thought to be extinct in the area, a Barbie Doll, and another osprey.

trying to explain to tumblr that the Middle Class in not their enemy

[sentimentalslut]

saw someone say that someone complaining about only having 7k in savings makes them contemplate “doing something bad”

you know that 7k covers like. one hospital visit WITH insurance, right?

[sentimentalslut]

“people who make six figures shouldn’t be allowed to complain —“ most people who make six figures are, these days, solidly middle class. where i live, a combined household income of $110k is *lower middle class*.

“people who can afford homes —“ are typically 400-600k in debt for them. also if “can own your own home” is your threshold for the rich you are contemplating eating, i think you are genuinely stupid

“boohoo your investments dropped, stop complaining rich boy” idk how to tell you this but. most of us have a retirement account. you should probably open one

One of my favorite things about Disco Elysium is how it straight up lies to you about what kind of game it's going to be solely through the language of game design affordances.

E.g. How your inventory has a dedicated slot for bullets as if ammunition is a resource that you're constantly going to be managing, when actually there are only two (2) bullets you can obtain in the entire game, and they only get used in one specific sequence.

Or how the tutorial voice tells you the whole "Lieutenant Kitsuragi is now in your party" and then that's literally the entire extent of the party system in the game.

And of course both of those are examples of things that could be seen as holdovers from an earlier point in development where Disco was going to be a very different kind of game, but it's clear that they were very deliberately left in to fuck with the player about their expectations of traditional CRPG game design conventions.

where's that masterpost of quotes that have no right going as hard as they do. I'd like to submit "Protagonism is best left to teens and the insane"

my basic opinion on "ai in college" discourse is that business degrees are fake but faulty infrastructure collapses and accidental hospital poisonings are very, very real

[strawberry-crocodile]

i dont think a business major "cheating himself" to use chatgpt to write an essay for his economics class is really any more contemptible than your average Guy In Advertising but i do think that in STEM stuff you are supposed to walk out of there actually Having The Knowledge and the idea of doctors and engineers and so one not actually having that is scary.

also if youre habitually using chatgpt for like a history or literature cultural degree (liberal arts stuff) i think it doesnt matter but i kinda wonder what youre getting out of it

[strawberry-crocodile]

oh yeah and also the way that the difficulty in verifying AI usage means accusations thereof are becoming a cheap tool for teachers to flex their petty power an internalized biases, often against students of color, is bad actually.
