Hanahaki disease is a psychosomatic illness. It's a thing that your body does in response to stress over constantly repressing/concealing your feelings in settings with high background magic. It's like you've been ignoring pain for a long time and suddenly your vision starts going dark, because your affected body is just YANKING on random alerts trying to get you to PAY ATTENTION there is a PROBLEM. Yes the flowers do really exist. So do non-magical psychosomatic symptoms. The flowers aren't special.

This does of course open up the trope to options for non-romantic concealed feelings. Which I think is great. There is something viscerally satisfying about the person who seems so outwardly chipper coughing and hacking and spitting up Depression Flowers so now everyone has to know they're hurting. Isn't there?

[specificwatcher]

Hanahaki, but it's a child that feels neglected by their parents.

Hanahaki, but it's someone whose friends have started ghosting them.

Hanahaki, someone's wife is cheating on them.

Hanahaki, the disease that gives you three options: confront your feelings, destroy the love you hold for someone or perish choking on roses.

[totally-cis-offical]

Imagine this for transness

[mimosa-sex-tea-people-contrsf]

Hanahaki but it’s your body desperately needing you to love and care for it while your mind is trapped in the body that doesn’t fit, that’s wrong as it destroys you from the inside out the longer you aren’t able to get help to make your body feel like you

they are frequent costars in their respective acts, know this

[the-punforgiven]

I'm just saying, if you're going to worldbuild magic being a "raw, primal force, akin to and interweaving with nature itself" you gotta explain to me why animals don't use it

[the-punforgiven]

I know the normal answer is "they just aren't smart enough for it" but idk I've seen enough media where a character uses a spell in a moment of brain-off panic ilI feel like animals could probably stumble into a spell or two like, accidentally

[the-punforgiven]

Also how funny would it be to see a completely normal regular bear cast magic missile outta nowhere

[the-punforgiven]

Also there is no way ravens wouldn't figure out spells, tbh

They're smart fuckin birds, I believe in them

Either through observing or just figuring shit out ravens could 100% learn how to cast spells I'm sure of it

[the-punforgiven]

Dogs can also cast Magic Missile but every time they do the projectile is shaped like a bone or a stick and they chase after it

[rathayibacter]

group of wizards who ask this in-universe, and after extensive study learn to their surprise that animals are casting spells all the time, just that their magic is so fundamental as to be unrecognizable to humans. turns out the only reason acorns grow on trees is because squirrels keep wishing for them.

Deltarune is a game about mirrors. Everyone and everything is a mirror of something else. Tenna is a mirror of Asgore, Queen is a mirror of Carol, King is a mirror of Susie. Which makes it so interesting that Chapter 5 centers a set of seven flowers, all of which are mostly their own characters, but share an undeniable personhood despite how little time they have gotten to live in the Dark World. Characters that want so badly to be human. Characters you are encouraged to sympathize with and advocate for. Characters that can't be saved, no matter what you do.

I believe the story of this chapter is meant to mirror the story of Deltarune as a whole. The game tells you in so many ways (particularly through characters like Ralsei, Tenna, and the flowers) that darkners matter, that they deserve empathy and that their needs are worthy of consideration. And yet, they are doomed. Their worlds must be sealed away, with Castle Town as their only oasis. But when the final tragedy comes to pass, it seems likely that Castle Town, and even the Dark Worlds in general, will be then forever lost.

It would be easy to give up when faced with such a tragic existence. To know that you can never be saved. The solution to Deltarune's plot seems impossible- there is no barrier to shatter between the Dark World and the Light World- no feasible answer to spare the darkners their subservient existence. So, why do the flowers keep trying so hard to be human?

They know their fountain is going to be sealed. Flowery might even know that the Roaring Knight is fated to kill him. But still, they all try to stop you. Flowery still tries to fight off the Knight. Despite every odd being stacked against them, they held on to their dreams, and kept fighting until the end.

Deltarune is only supposed to have one ending. There seems to be an increasingly real chance that the only way to save the worlds is by forever banishing the Dark. But Chapter 5 wants to inspire you to keep fighting for the darkners, advocating for them, even if it doesn't end up making a difference in the end. Until we see fate for our own eyes, we cannot afford to give up.

Study finds nearly every pre-2010 video game is unavailable

Games from older consoles are being made less and less available to the point so much of the industry's history could easily vanish without

Vimm's Lair: Preserving the Classics

Preserving classic videogames from consoles past.

I'm just gonna slide this on in here for anyone that is interested in preserving old games. They take it very seriously too, they want an archive of every single game. Like, they have lists of every game ever released for a system, and once that system gets old enough, they add it to their archive and start collecting. Their latest addition was the Xbox 360, they opened that vault up in September 2022, and proudly announced they'd finished their collection of games for it back in April.

Also, while their game archives are almost entirely complete, they've got another project of archiving the manuals that came with those games, and that is... considerably less well filled out. Their collection of Xbox 360 manuals is especially rough, they've only gotten manuals for three games. So if you've got some Xbox 360 games kicking around, and the manual's still with them, please consider scanning them and submitting them to the site!

Game preservation is important, but people rarely consider preserving the manuals as well; I really respect Vimm's Lair for being so thorough in their archival work.

[anachronic-cobra]

I've been using Vimm's Lair for years, I have yet to see a single bad link or virus on the entire site. It's arguably the safest and most comprehensive archive of video games in existence. Preserved history

Trying to find an old tumblr post I used to see a lot.

It started with someone listing "places with uncanny energy," like gas stations on a road trip, empty movie theaters, etc.

Then someone reblogged it and said those are called "liminal spaces," defining liminal as in-between, neither one thing nor another.

It was the first time I'd seen the term "liminal" applied to places like that, and it's driving me crazy, I want to find and put a date on it so bad.

[ieattaperecorders]

NEVER MIND, I FOUND IT!!!

[ieattaperecorders]

Holy shit I just realized:

Tomorrow (July 4th, 2026) is the 10 year anniversary of the-crepes-of-wrath's comment, which:

Predates the 2020 spike in interest by four years

Predates the original backrooms post, and the the creation of r/liminalspaces by three years

Predates the earliest mention that KnowYourMeme attributes to Twitter by two years

I'm pretty sure this is the moment the term "liminal spaces" was attached to this sort of imagery, and it's TEN YEARS OLD TOMORROW!

LIMINAL SPACES TURN TEN TOMORROW! CELEBRATE BY GETTING LOST IN AN ABANDONED MALL!

Now remember kids, unless the character directly turns to the camera and says "Hello audience. I identify as a transgender woman. Please use she/her pronouns from now on when referring to me. Thank you.", then he isn't really trans. No, the glaringly obvious subtext or word of the Creator don't count. He has to say the magic words. That's literally the only way you can tell a character is transgender. Extremely explicit magic words.

[spark-circuit]

you can't convince me Kris 'Debatably Loves TV' Deltarune wanted a Tenna sweep of all things

Gooseworx is stronger than me because if my introspective transgender theme narrative about identity and accepting your circumstances was infiltrated by media iliterate 12 year olds who treated my work like it was fnaf and said my self insert of me at my worst was literally the worst person who deserved nothing but the worst and could not recover ever i would actually fucking explode. I would kill people. How does she do it.

[rubelliterambles]

The worst parts of the tadc fandom and their incessant need to destroy, vilify, even fucking dox the creators of their favorite show is something that will haunt me for years as an artist. It's insane to me how every little action gets torn to shreds, even the fucking fortnite colab.

When I saw Goose's "the show got way bigger than me" post it made me so bitter for the next week because I hated seeing someone lose the passion for their, well, passion project.

If that happened to me I think I'd actually follow through on making the show worse and maybe even flaunt it a bit. The TADC fandom is a study in why we can't have nice things as indie fans.
