farewell my turnabout is a really good case. do people know about this one

[ot3]

its just so awesome that edgeworth rolls up with his little i am no longer mentally ill i've figured it all out Your Hatred Of Me Is Quite Unhealthy And Not To Mention One Sided shtick and then in court the next day before his opening statement or anything turns directly towards phoenix to announce that by the end of the trial phoenix will Know The Answer that edgeworth Struggled For On His Long Journey and then immediately proceeds to be exactly as much of a smug asshole as always like that's a necessary component of prosecuting a case. which of course it is for him. because he has a bad personality.

(tags from @autumnslance) i gotchu with the world's roughest paraphrasing. For context this is when you brute-force Phase 2 and he gives you a fake god-kefka ending and an empty treasure chest that you open which triggers this line:

"CongratulatioNOT! Next time let's play very differently!"

He then proceeds to force you to leave the instance. can't wait to see the EN localization of this because it's basically 'congrats on LOSING, git gud scrubs lol now get out of my arena'

As a Greek, in response to the current controversy about Matt Damon being cast as Odysseus, I'd just like to share that one of the moments that changed my brain chemistry as a kid was reading a novelized version of the Odyssey and coming across the following description of Odysseus when Circe sees him for the first time and thinks he's hot: "his hair curled like a clematis and his eyes were very brown".

So may I present my own casting choice for Odysseus:

Excuse me???

you are right and you should say it.

Is this the face of a man who would put his own infant in front of a plow to avoid going to war?

Absolutely not

You know who would try that shit?

Is this the face of a man who would defy the very gods to get home to his wife?

You know who would defy the gods just to show he could get away with it?

i think everyone who is worried about their skill doing content in ff14 should watch an ultimate world race. if you have ever felt like shit for not immediately understanding a mechanic you've never seen before, you will be Spiritually Healed watching the absolute best players in the world spend multiple hours and 20 pulls just to make it 25 milliseconds further into a fight. you will watch people just completely fuck mechanics that they have successfully done 30 pulls in a row for no other reason than they're tired and their brain shidded. no matter what your skill ceiling is, the trajectory of gaining competence follows pretty much the same arc. be soothed

You dont have to leave the perfect comment btw i know some people start to overthink it on fics or art. But you can just reblog and be like oh my god. Mfb .GHEBEBEHEGHH!!! BGH!!!1+3+3NH... so good. Like yes detailed comments are nice but sometimes in the moment it can be hard to know what to say. So just give positive feedback! It doesn't have to be perfect, and hey, if you think of more later? Thats TWO comments on the fic or art! The creator will nut.

reblog if you have skilled writer friends and you're damn proud of them

not using AI genuinely feels like the rest of the world is experiencing some kind of mass amnesia. if someone says they never use it, the immediate response is that can't be true because "everyone" uses it to write their emails or answer their questions. saw a comment suggesting that not using chatgpt to write an essay is "like the 90s". girl I graduated in 2021 and we weren't doing that! how is it that everyone has suddenly forgotten that they were entirely capable of doing these things all by themselves for their entire lives up until the past few years!! am I going crazy!!!
