Marginalia

A repository for written work based on both original concepts and existing franchises/series. If I could, I would mark this blog as 18+ if only to ensure creative freedom.

Change my meme (a replacement 'Change my mind' template) - template post - Imgur

[bisexualshakespeare]

[ID: an edited Calvin and Hobbes panel where Calvin sits, smiling, at a lemonade stand with a sign taped to the front of the table. It reads: It's time to retire that other meme and replace it with this template. Change my mind. Next image is the same meme but the sign reads: Steven Crowder does not deserve a meme format. Change my mind. /end]

[somelocusts]

See this just feels so much better. I’ve read enough of those comics to know that Calvin has some really deep insights rattling around in his head. And look how happy and attentive he looks. You could absolutely have a polite, intelligent, and enriching conversation with this kid. Meanwhile Steven Crowder is so financially incentivized to always look like the smartest guy in any given room that the only way to change his mind is with a 2x4 to the side of the head. Which, I admit, would be enriching in its own way.

Attaching the blank because the imgur link was being temperamental for me. Saved you a click.

“evrart claire is the bad guy” “evrart claire is good actually” evrart claire and the union are meant to show both how ‘corruption’ is used as a bludgeon against working class self-advocacy and the truly real limitations of social democracy. the real political takeaway of disco elysium is that the good guys, revolutionary communists, have become poisoned by large bugs

[pissvortex]

the real political takeaway of disco elysium is that the good guys, Drugs, are being taken away from you by cops and you have to do everything in your power to obstruct justice

[idlemarginalia]

I genuinely don't understand how anyone can support or go down the communist route in DE when the game explicitly tells you that Kim is a moralist. The best option is right over there and y'all just sleeping on it.

I'm kind of having a moment like what makes something "canon"? if it's produced by a corporation for the sole sake of profit?? like just because paramount said Spock eats bacon does not mean that is somehow now "canon"........ to ME

[idlemarginalia]

Canon is tied to the (outdated) idea that only the original HOLDER OF COPYRIGHT can dictate what is and is not true or factual in the piece of media. Not even the original creator, but whoever legally owns the fucking franchise.

Someone could just buy the rights to Harry Potter and make every character Canadian, nobody could stop you.

[twoblogger]

I hate the trend of just describing books with what minorities the main characters represent and nothing else. not only does it feel weird + exploitative to me it's also such a shoddy ineffective marketing technique. "this is my book with queer polyam disabled vampires you should buy it" ok great but what is it like. about. what are the themes. why should I read it

[palipunk-deactivated20260328]

I got to see some leyendecker pieces in person! He’s a really big inspiration of mine so one of the things I focused on was the actual close ups of the brush strokes in his pieces bc they’re so cool

GOD THIS SITE HAS POISONED ME

I thought all the zoom-ins were like aimed at places where you could pick out evidence that the people in the paintings were trans due to various physiological details...

Xbox sells replacement controller parts, still manages to fuck it up

So at the start of the month word circulated that Microsoft is now selling individual parts of xbox controllers for repair.

When I saw this I'll admit my mind jumped back to my previous attempts to airbrush custom controllers for re-sale and the idea of being able to just buy the shells was very appealing... but of course

Not only does Microsoft just straight up not sell the backplates/handgrips, ONLY the front plate, buttons and internal boards...they're not even for sale in Canada. Thanks a fucking lot.

[preservationofnormalcy]

I feel confident enough to post these now. A collection of all the existing posters after some edits from the other post that got 13k notes! These are full size/quality. Go nuts.

You may use them for wallpapers, tabletop campaigns, whatever. Consider tipping me or buying a print or sticker on ko-fi here! If you do use them, let me know what for, or send pictures!
