Lemme explain this transitional mess! I’ve always had a headcannon that when Shepard makes the decision to destroy the reapers for good she thinks back to Earth. She is doing this for Earth, seeking vengeance for the fallen. When she starts shooting she thinks back to the battle in space that she saw and Anderson’s approval. Anderson’s approval meant everything to her. She had thought she might’ve made the wrong choice before he said those words, which strengthened her resolve. When the explosions knocked her out she thought she was dead and meeting Garrus at the bar. Then she woke up in the rubble on Earth.

Afterwords during the search to find people in all the rubble Shepard was found, barely alive. She remained on Earth, surrounded by soldiers she did not know for months. She still needed the time to recover, but it was hard to do so when she assumed everyone on the Normandy was dead. One day she hears some arguing. Something about someone not being allowed to see her. Next thing she knew Garrus had barged into her room, taking her into his arms as Shepard openly wept for the first time since she was found.

That’s my head cannon about the end of Mass Effect 3. The latter part didn’t really ever show until recently since I was always unsure how to interpret the “best ending” of the game. I usually assumed that they found Shepard clutching to life, but she ended up passing on after everyone told her they had won. (Or my favorite Indoctrination theory ending where she wakes up and they are all still fighting since she merely resisted their indoctrination attempts). But, when I saw one of the writers confirm that Garrus did find Shepard after the end of the game on Twitter, I finally allowed myself to have a happy ending.

Never really thought we’d get a Mass Effect Legendary edition. But now that it’s here, please allow me to share the ME3 video I made (MASSIVE SPOILERS OMG).

Tbh I forgot all about this video until just now and I’m totally crying like a baby from all the feels. Still playing ME1 in the Legendary edition. But God, I adore this trilogy 💙

I had to Google this and I still don’t believe it’s real

This is a fake time line. I’ve just been lucid dreaming in a coma this whole time.

[architeuthisducks-blog]

[celtic-pyro-deactivated20230725]

I remember when College Humor did this as a sketch. A JOKE. And now it’s an actual thing with the first trailer dropping tomorrow. We are living in a clown world.

[muchymozzarella]

Ok but a movie with a fully Spanish cast for a Spanish film where the cast isn’t all just white people? I don’t care if it’s gonna be wild as fuck, I want to watch it.

[roseverdict]

Because brains don’t brain logically

[couldbeglorious]

Brains do brain logically! But when english doesn’t logic englishly, brain brains by itself to logic that english !

[swampxwitchxhattie]

I hate that this makes sense

[allthingslinguistic]

Languages making up new words and using old words in new ways is a feature, not a bug! 

Think how dull it would be (not to mention, difficult to talk about new things) if we didn’t have ways of making new words! New metaphors, so we don’t get bored with old cliches! New verbs, for when the old ones don’t vivid enough! New slang, so that kids can differentiate themselves from their elders! 

It’s not just an English thing, it’s an every language thing, and that’s because it’s actually vital to how language works that it’s flexible and adaptable and we can express ourselves and figure out meaning even when words aren’t quite grammaring – otherwise we’d have a hard time understanding small children or new language learners or people with food in their mouths.

English IS logicking Englishly, because part of the logic of a language is its creativity.  If you could only ever do things in a language that you’d heard someone else do already, we’d just gradually lose things and never grow anything new to replace them. And that is not a way I want to world.
