sorry i have a headache all I can make is cool 90s jungle music when I have headaches... its not very inspired... but it's all I can do when I have a headache.
The furry artist wants to draw feet to my music? How could I possibly refuse!
You're not just the furry feet guy to me. My followers too!
A few things Dungeon Crawler Carl says very well:
- Question your relationship to consumption and viewership.
- The norms that govern us are socially constructed yet treated as immutable and more important than human life
- Apathy is violent.
You know I think Mordecai KNEW.
I think he knew when Carl, having forced his way into the safe room on the first floor only to hear 'those monsters chasing you will likely be back with backup'
Fucking TURNED AROUND
LEFT THE SAFEROOM
AND MADE SURE THERE WERE NO SURVIVORS
Before coming back to have his little 'ZOMG wtf' freakout and also feed his ex girlfriend's cat.
Like Mordecai knew THEN that he was dealing with a batshit crazy multifloor survivor. He just didn't let himself fully believe it until floor 3.
My friend said this so credit to her but I think the most refreshing thing about Dungeon Crawler Carl is that itâs nice to read a book series about adults, for adults, where the adults act and communicate like adults, that is still humorous and fun to read.
no what you guys don't understand is that Katniss and Carl are the same.
both of these franchises talk about the same thing: the wealthy and privileged using their means to make vulnerable people an entertainment source.
The Capitol uses the Hunger Games not only as a way to control the population by fear, but also to keep their citizens desensitized to the horrors.
They do this by making the Tributes kill eachother and televise it, making them esentially a prop for their own narrative. And the Tributes don't have a say in it.
In the end, the Tributes are simply following orders. Orders that sometimes are explicit, and sometimes they're implicit "either do or die".
As explained by Katniss in Mockingjay:
Then, there's this parallel with Carl
Carl also recognizes that he's part of this TV show where his entire class is being wiped out. And the viewers love it. The only difference is that (in most cases) the crawlers don't kill each other, but they die facing the Dungeon (and even that changes from time to time, when the showrunners push for a certain narrative too).
What I'm saying is that Suzane Collins and Matt Dinniman are making the same point here:
When the wealthy are too wealthy to understand that people aren't toys, we must rise and remind them that we're not pawns.
i feel like a big part of the appeal of dungeon crawler carl is that it is fundamentally a story where a man is told "through complex legal and technological processes we have completely fucked over the lives of you and everyone you care about to enrich ourselves" to which the man asks "what if i killed you with bombs" and it turns out the answer is they forgot that was an option
Andy âmy science fiction is not politicalâ Weir vs Matt âdear god please notice this story is about genocide and colonizationâ Dinniman: FIGHT
The themes of DCC are as well disguised as Perry the Platypus is, without his hat.
A man, his cat-daughter, and her pet dog velociraptor
DCC Carl is the Guyâą of all time. 6'3 ex-coastguard trained in hand-to-hand combat. Was 100% gonna fight Bea's rich lawyer dad for custody of her cat, Princess Donut. Religiously hits the gym 2-3 times a week. Is completely at ease saving the world in heart boxers and, when necessary, completely naked. Also embraces his luscious long hair. Has the uncanny ability to combine, bend, and break game rules to suit his needs. Despite his intelligence, still regularly falls back on "bomb the shit out of it" as a solution. Curses like a sailor. Says "I love you" with no hesitation. Has surrounded himself with competent, scary-ass women and when they go, "Carl you fucked up" his response is, "Yeah, I did. I'm sorry." Ultra daddy issues. Works hard to never become his father. The two times he prioritized ~sexy lady~ over survival he was literally charmed. A friend to everyone who has his and Donut's back, be they human, alien, sluggalo, goat, or sentient sex doll head.
Did murder a bunch of goblin babies though. And allegedly jerked off a crab.
Ah well. No guy's perfect!

Odysseus moment
As a 19-year-old sophomore at Stanford, Elizabeth Holmes decided to transform diagnostic medicine so she dropped out of college and used her tuition money to start her own company, Theranos. Ten years later, Holmes, pictured here holding a micro-vial, is on the cutting edge of medical technology â her new blood testing method allows hundreds of tests to be run using only a few drops of blood. And, Holmesâ methods are cheaper, faster, more accurate, and less invasive than conventional methods which often require a separate vial of blood for every test. As Holmes told Wired.com earlier this year, âI started this company because I wanted to spend my life changing our health care system. When someone you love gets really sick, most of the time when you find out, itâs too late to be able to do something about it. Itâs heartbreaking⊠We wanted to make actionable health information accessible to people everywhere at the time it matters most. That means two things: being able to detect conditions in time to do something about them and providing access to information that can empower people to improve their lives.â

Reasons you should adore Elizabeth Holmes:
She is featured as Forbesâ youngest self-made woman billionaire.
Her tests will revolutionize the public health world as we know it; Making diagnostic testing accessible and affordable for more people (and potentially saving Medicare and Medicaid ~$100 billion each over the next decade). (x)
She is a coauthor on 82 US and 189 foreign patent applications. (x)
Her fear of needles served as a motivator for launching Theranos. (x)

i love how most mattfoggy fights basically boil down to foggy saying âhey i care about you and want you to be safe and happyâ and matt going âfoggy the city NEEDS me to kill myselfâ
Your partner came back from the dead after being missing for decades. Every one of their friends who they went with ended up dying a horrible death.
Now, somehow, their entire mental health is based on the continued life and happiness of this fairground goldfish that they picked up.
Neither of you know the first thing about how to care for even a healthy fish. This fish has been poorly cared for, has multiple diseases and the person who handed it over explicitly didn't expect it to live nearly as long as it already has.
You're frantically googling how to set up a fish tank, where to buy fish food, can you even take a fish to the vet? Your partner wants you to know that they're happy they made it home and survived their horrific ordeal, but also that if anything happens to the fish then they're going to kill everyone on this planet and then themself.
You're honestly wondering if you're even helping the fish, or just prolonging its suffering, but your partner will only accept medical help for their many injuries or engage in basic self-care once they're confident that the fish is being looked after.
So you get a tank. You set up a filter and all that stuff. You learn way more than you ever wanted to know about water temperature and ph and nitrate levels. The fish is safe. You start to develop some affection for the little guy. Your partner begins to recover. The fish begins to recover.
Which is when you learn that in its 'healthy' state, the fish regularly refuses to sleep when tired, keeps begging for food that is obviously unhealthy for it (and struggling to eat the food that you do provide because âit tastes grossâ), and continually tries to persuade your partner to take it out of its nice safe tank so it can go explore the wonderful world of Outside, where the slightest mishap will kill it instantly.
Your name is Adrian, and you kind of wants to strangle this fucking fish, statement.
