Then I'll do it. Whatever it takes. I'll win the Proving. I see - we best get started then. Your training will be hard, and it will take years.

remember when you bought a gaming console and all the things you needed to use the console was already in the console so you didnt have to go buy a bunch of other stuff and remember when you bought a game and you put the game in your console you could play the game immediately there was no downloads or subscriptions or dlc it was all right there in the game you bought do you remember tell me do you remember any of it

to me, correctly using 5+ commas in a single sentence is like perfectly executing a combo in a fighting game. to me.

if you think a sentence needs 5+ commas it should be two sentences

hardwrench

it’s not about what the sentence needs, i’m afraid, nor is it about economy, clarity, or style. it’s about winning, little-theatre-fairy.

Lola De La Mata speaks to Patrick Clarke about how her experience with severe tinnitus and vertigo fed into her new album Oceans On Azimuth

Transcript:

The most mind-blowing moment, not only for De La Mata but the scientists too, came when they managed to actually record the sounds that she heard in her ears – which now appear as ‘Left Ear’ and ‘Right Ear’ which begin sides A and B on the album – and in doing so opened up questions about the nature of tinnitus itself. “The NHS definition is that it’s a phantom sound that your brain is creating, that it isn’t something ‘real’, so you should try to ignore it.” By having De La Mata place her ear into an anechoic chamber, with an ultra-sensitive microphone perched in her ear canal, they were able to provide significant evidence to the contrary. “After the first recording of it, it was ‘There’s no way, this isn’t possible.’” They tried again with her breath held, and again with her tensing her ears, and again with other members of staff, but each time it became apparent that yes, the noises De La Mata hears are seemingly something physical.

HOLY SHIT THAT'S WHAT I HEAR ALL DAY

#insane #hopefully an actual research group picks this up at some point #please protect your ears when you’re doing loud things #(like learning drumset at age 7 😅)#or be cursed to hear this 24/7 👍#non gaming

Rise of the Tomb Raider The Prophet's Tomb, Syria

The Prophet's tomb... after all this time. And the artifact? Inside, God willing. Open it... carefully. It could be extremely dangerous.

New Sideblog @futilegames

Life has been Happening lately, so I haven't been active on here in a while, but there will be new gifsets coming soon.

I've also made a new sideblog for film & tv content (and really anything else I make that's not gaming-related), so you can follow me over there as well if you're interested.

(and yes, i know it's an ironic username for a specifically non-gaming blog, but i got the name from a movie, and at this point i'm too attached to heraldofsomething to change on this blog. so whatever.)

#text #first gifset over there is from WarGames (1983) as it's where i got the name from & is just one of my fav movies in general #but i also have ideas for a few Wicked gifsets #and *maybe* some from the Dexter tv series? which i started watching recently for some reason??#current interests are “idk man i just work here”#ash speaks
