inability to correctly perceive 3d objects is in fact far more dangerous when someone is driving a car next to you then when they're like, sending emails to you.
shoutout to the Manly Mandanna actually belonging (in Deltarune, at least) to a little girl that just wanted to be seen as tough and brave and probably drew the abs on it herself
whatever you do don't imagine the Orange soul crying this out to Asgore before he took the soul, and then Orange souls becoming associated with Bravery in the underground
I don't know why people are acting like Susie and Ralsei ruined Kris's "big chance" with Pink, because if you choose "Gotta win" after they tell Pink they were just flirting to win the battle they literally turn to the camera and peace sign
Hey Akane I wanted to ask what do you think of the idea that Aqua sorta represents a younger child version of Kris? Now I’m not saying they are Kris but they do seem to act sorta like how Kris was implied to act when they were younger there’s also both of their affinity for knives and it also plays into the little theory that Kris originally had the patience/Cyan soul prior to the red one not to mention I’m pretty sure they share the same blue color
My feelings on the matter is that ALL the flowers represent an aspect of Kris in some way. Aqua is just the one people notice first.
Seth = Kris' gender identity (there is a whole Cafe dialog about it)
Yellow = Kris' internalized guilt and love for cowboys (hinted at in easily missable dialog)
Blue - Kris' grace and femininity as well as their love for art (piano)
Green - Kris' penchant for not speaking
Orange = Kris' identity as a human living among monsters (the mouse claiming she is human)
Flowery - Kris' role as both the party leader and foil towards us and the other heros.
Pink = direct analog to Kris' relationship with the Player (us)
(There is probably more, but it's like 6 AM rn and I gotta go to work lol)
Stop making this a trait reserved for that rat-like sidekick or terrible villain. The class clown isn't the only one who can be fat. The nerd isn't the only one who can get acne.
Give your main characters thin hair, bad teeth, acne, body acne, extra fingers, weird facial hair, bad haircuts, bad fashion, weirdly big feet or hands or foreheads.
Make them weirdly tall or short, make them too fat or too thin. Make their face shape something except 'circular but in a cute way' or diamond/square/heart. Make them have a double chin or sickly transparent skin or short sweaty hands.
Especially if they're adolescents! Especially if they're from a poor/polluted area because no one who grew up drinking toxic water around mines and trash and rubble comes out of it with clear skin and shiny hair their whole life!
#ok but consider: all the ancient egyptians in flashbacks are also inexplicably human#including imhotep#implying that muppets were not always everywhere but at some point maybe people started turning into them? who knows?#which of course is never in a million years addressed#bonus points if some of the heiroglyphs and stuff feature muppets but ☝️ only stuff from later in egyptian history#because you *know* a muppet mummy movie would make a point of paying an absurd amount of attention to detail#to the point where it ends up being way more historically accurate than the original movie#also imhotep's mummification is now muppetfication i guess?#attempts by ancient humans to transcend the limitations of flesh#by wrapping themselves in cloth and emptying their insides to make room for the hand of a divine puppeteer#shit now *i'm* the one getting carried away lmao#the mummy (via wizardlyghost)
Hey. If people aren't aware, Microsoft admitted they know who you and where you are at all times and will give your info to the police.
They have a Global Device Identifier (GDID) Tracker that functions as a fingerprint for your PC that can surpass VPNs, proxy servers and countries. Although it can't survive a clean reinstall of Windows (it can survive updates), because Microsoft forces you to go to the internet and log in into a Microsoft account, they will be able to get to you.
Microsoft kept it secret and it was only found out when the FBI tracked a hacker thanks to the information Microsoft gave them.
You should be paying attention to this, and possibly consider moving away from Windows. If a government, especially the US government, doesn't like you for some reason, this could be seriously concerning.
This article specifically notes:
For journalism, activism, or domestic abuse situations, skip Windows and use Linux routed through Tor instead of a commercial VPN. A GDID doesn’t care which VPN you use, only that it’s still the same Windows installation.
GDID is the persistent Windows ID that helped FBI trace a Scattered Spider hacker despite VPNs. Here's how it works and how to limit it.
Other important quotes:
What has researchers uneasy is everything else the case reveals. Costin Raiu, a well-known malware researcher, asked on the Three Buddy Problem podcast how much of this exists on other platforms, and whether it is linked more permanently to hardware. Matthew Hickey, another security researcher, called Windows “surveillance software”.
Two things back that up:
There’s no consent screen. A GDID gets assigned when you sign into a Microsoft Account. Apple’s advertising identifier needs an App Tracking Transparency prompt and a visible reset; Android’s works the same way. GDID has neither, and a Windows reinstall only gets you a new number Microsoft can still get back to the same account.
Then there’s activation. Massgrave, the group behind Microsoft Activation Scripts, notes that Windows setup sends hardware info to Microsoft and gets identifiers back, the same tokens later used for Store access and licensing: “It’s impossible to prevent Windows from getting a GDID without breaking activation and UWP app[s].” Anyone who lost a license after swapping a motherboard has already met a smaller version of this.
seconding this!! linux mint (I'm on Cinnamon) looks exactly like Windows 7. And it comes with Libre Office, Firefox and Thunderbird and it won't crash every time you look at it crosseyed.
the whole "insulting someone based on their appearance is bad because it could indirectly hurt people you like who share that feature" is a good start for unlearning body shaming but i do think we need to go further and remind people that even if there was some physical trait that was magically 10000% exclusive to conservatives and creeps and nobody else ever had it, we still shouldnt be insulting them based on that. because the problem with them is not their appearance its their ideology and actions. by insulting their appearance you arent just indirectly insulting others who look like that, youre literally not making the correct point. stay on topic ya know.
Listen I get it but you CANNOT use "sensory nightmare" as an excuse to avoid essential things. You HAVE to find a way to make it work, such as finding effective alternatives. But you can't just avoid it.
You need to eat some vegetables in your diet or you will become a lich.
You have to wear a life jacket or you will literally drown and die.
You need to be able to exist in public spaces with children.
You have to find a way.
