Santos telling Whitaker she's mad about Langdon being an asshole and that being what Langdon apologizes for (being an asshole) in his sincere but not good apology. her projecting about him potentially relapsing while she's on the verge of her own relapse of self-harm. oh, Santos and Langdon parallel arcs are so good when people aren't trying to tell you one is totally wrong and one is totally correct. luckily for us the writers know that yay

My resolution for 2024?

Check the sources.

Make it a habit to check the sources.

Don't spread things that aren't sourced or can't be confirmed.

Check the legitimacy of the sources.

Make it a habit to check the legitimacy of the sources.

Don't spread things that come from bad sources.

@the-widgets-stash-of-shinies adding some very excellent tags thank you!

#bad sources are not “sources from people you think are bad” #Bad sources (depending on the context) are things such as blog posts; advertisements; sensationalised articles; and articles with no author #Whilst each of these can be a good source if used to get a specific piece of information #(ie individuals opinion on a game; a company's own claims about a product; media reaction to an event; ect) #but this requires you to still make sure that the source is good for what you need. #If I need to see if motion sickness is a major issue in a certain gaming community; a forum will be a good source #But if I want facts about how cameras in games work; a forum is a bad source #There are a lot of good sources that are “worst person you know made the best legitimate academic paper you need” #And that's OK. #You need to ask questions: Is this a primary or secondary source? #If it is a published source: is it's publisher biased in any way? #There is no one catch-all answer; there is no definitive list of “these sources are always good and these are always bad”. #You need to take initiative #get literate #and make the judgement calls yourself

Just wanna put up a note (especially with this post going around again, yay I'm glad it's going around) -

With a lot of world events happening, and info being difficult to verify at times, I'm trying to be very deliberate about what I reblog. I'm not a guy who is formally trained in verifying information.

If I'm not talking about a thing, or not reblogging on the thing, it's because I do not trust myself to be able to verify the information about it. It's not a statement of my politics. It's me being careful.

Because misinformation and disinformation are a plague! And I'm doing my part not to spread the stuff.

This new year's resolution was from 2024, but it remains evergreen, and it's never going to be fulfilled, because there is always more information to try and verify.

Meet the incredible Phantom Pulse cast (introduced, as they always are from here on out, in the order the characters joined the band): 

Nicholas Podany plays our fearless frontman, Ren. I first heard Nicholas in Gabriel Urbina’s Hit Singles - I was always going to love that show, but his performance was a highlight in a project full of them. When I found out what an incredible musician he was? Well, it was simple. He was our Ren. 

Erin Caesar is our joyful and energetic drummer, Jo. I haven’t known Erin for long, but her audition immediately grabbed me - she just instantly sank into the person that Jo is. I cannot wait to see her take this character on! 

Briggon Snow is our moody and mysterious lead guitarist, Bremmer. Briggon needs no introduction here. Y’all know how I feel about him. He’s my brother and he’s been hearing me talk about this show ad nauseaum since February 2023, so honestly I’m surprised he was still up for being in it. 

Erika Ishii is our whip-smart and playful bassist, Cal. I’ve known Erika for, and I can’t believe this, ten years. We were in a delightful little web series called Natural 20 approximately seven lifetimes ago and not only is it the thing that introduced me to D&D, but it also introduced me to Erika and their absolute wealth of talent! It’s been incredible to watch their meteoric rise and I am unbelievably thrilled to get to work together again. 

Juliana Gutiérrez Arango is our dreamy and kind keyboardist - and newest member of the band - Ash. In her callback, Juliana started by saying that she loved listening to The Bright Sessions when she was a teenager. This was both absolutely horrifying and so lovely - how special that I get to make art with someone who grew up with my writing. 

Our Kickstarter launches TOMORROW, so hit that notify on launch button so you know the MOMENT we do!

this legit made me stop believing in knight papyrus

[thesituation]

i can’t stand “it’s not that deep” attitudes like even if it really really isn’t that deep just PLAY WITH ME. just fucking PLAY. have a meaningless but deep analytical conversation with me. just like think about shit for fun. does anyone else like to think about stuff for fun. it’s so lonely

[vincenzonova]

I mean, what else is there to say? Dimension 20 - On A Bus was one of the greatest first episodes of D20 to date. Incredible players, stellar setting, and AMAZING DM-ing by Katie! For a first time running a game, she absolutely NAILED it. I had my doubts, but if there's anyone who can fill Brennan's American Girl Shoes, it's her. @dropoutdottv @dimension20official @gamechangershow, if you need someone to do character art for the new season, I'm your man!

(And to everyone else, I do actual D&D commissions if you're interested)

Screaming. It’s THEM. 🥰

[gloamses]

with love. you have to fact check shit. yes you. you still have to fact check shit. a lot of people are great at fact checking stuff they don’t want to be true, but somehow are still absolute ass at fact checking stuff that’s rhetorically convenient to them. even people my age, who I KNOW grew up doing internet/bibliography literacy workshops, and being warned not to believe anything that isn’t reliably sourced, people who DO harp on fact checking conservative output or whatever, are still kneejerk sharing unsourced shit that is partially or wholly untrue or misleading, because it suits whatever narrative they’re pursuing in that moment, without even a “take this with a grain of salt”. fact check!!!!!! look at the sources!!!!! yes it’s a drag!!! do it!!!!!

[asneakyfox]

the reason you, a white american, believe that white americans don't have culture is the same reason fish don't believe in water

[asneakyfox]

yes i know you think it's an antiracist statement, that you're saying it's a bad thing white americans don't have culture. but what you're actually saying is that the way white americans live is simply the normal way to live and that "culture" refers only to deviations from that norm

[asneakyfox]

there's real holidays and then there's, you know, cultural holidays. there's regular foods and there's ethnic foods

[asneakyfox]

this is not (just) about "cultural christianity," an idea that gestures at a real thing but the way tumblr talks about it is mostly not useful, i'm talking about stuff much broader than that.

making yourself a ham sandwich with mayo on white bread is a cultural practice just as much as making jollof rice is a cultural practice.

[asneakyfox]

if you feel some kind of yearning as a white american to connect with your Ancestral Culture you can get really into wearing lederhosen or playing bagpipes or whatever. but you could also just learn to understand the way you are living right now as a culture and not some kind of neutral default absence of culture

Sam Nightingale texting The Seven groupchat going "ZELDA Gorgug just posted his new girlfriend and she is a short, awkward barbarian in a hoodie, what a loser, he's obviously still obsessed with you" and Zelda going "Sam chill the fuck out Gorgug and I are cool it's fine"
