Sanguine

is a loosely canonical chronicle of the events of Dragon Age: Origins with an F!Amell/Alistair pairing featuring a canon-bending Warden, which results in some familiar situations resolved in unfamiliar ways.

It is fully pre-written (by myself, over the course of the past seven years) and fully illustrated (by the exceptional @vjatoch), and is being published in a serial format with weekly updates.

CHAPTER 30

in which Alistair realizes he's made a serious error in judgment.

Read chapter 30 on AO3!

Lmfaoooooo I’m sooooooooo shocked

[saviourfinn]

Why would You even go watch a movie called Black Panther after watching trailers of said movie including almost only black characters… Why would you pay to see such a blackity black movie and then complain ekzlznendbjd this is too fucking dumb but at least they gave coins to Coogler so who tf cares

BP already made 1 billion before them it doesnt need them.

[sindels-scream-deactivated20200]

but see this fucking proves that hollywood needs to stop making mediocre movies with the chinese market in mind - they ruined all the potential of doctor strange for fear of offending chinese sensibilities, they routinely sideline black characters (in both plot AND marketing) for the sake of courting chinese audiences, they refuse to greenlight big budget movies with non-white main characters for fear of alienating the international box office, and for what? blackest franchise movie ever made and 1 billion dollars earned before it even hit china so maybe hollywood should take the damn lesson and stop shying away from making great movies with unique voices as opposed to the same white cookie cutter (supposedly) safe nonsense

how is making a movie set in africa… with a predominantly black cast… politically correct? it’s just?? it is???? that’s our land? ????

[chrysalisshell]

you know i somehow wonder why its never discussed how deeply misogynistic and patriarchal fallout new vegas’ world is, including numerous instances of sexual and gendered violence with two entire endgame factions that require you to turn a blind eye to the exploitation of women. a quest that requires you to choose between a rapist and a serial killer who makes snuff porn of sex workers, a quest that involves a literal paedophile and a lesbian being raped by a man while also having it’s lesbians suffer extensive physical and emotional trauma and yet no one ever seems to question the necessity of institutionalised misogyny in a world where there’s no longer any institutions.

and there’s hardly anything to counter it either. women get repeatedly brutalized throughout the game with no recourse, even having people excuse and apologise for that violence in the name of some greater good. that is, when you’re allowed to comment on it at all.

it’d bother me less if people wouldn’t keep acting like it’s some incredibly progressive piece of fiction when it acts like it’s a throwback to medieval not-England high fantasy worlds most of the time with men being the ones largely in power and in positions of authority and getting the lion’s share of complexity and nuance in writing while the women mostly just exist.

Aipoly Vision App helps visually impaired see the world through their smartphone

[maroonsparrow-blog-deactivated2]

Can we also talk about how this is the best translation tool for non English speakers? I want this for traveling!

[themightytej]

You’re telling me someone designed something widely useful AND remembered that colorblindness is a thing that exists?

[whomhave-i-deactivated20190213]

I’m. So. Excited. About. This.

[sapphire-crimson-claw-archive-d]

I saw this on CBS Sunday morning. A woman held it up to the journalist and it was like, “white man, brown hair, 40 years old.” 

He looked so 

[elodieunderglass]

Reblogging because I want to remember to learn more about this!

[kumabearsweetheart-deactivated2]

This is awesome but can we also talk about how this gifset is useless for visually impaired people without some kind of transcription? I’ve never met a screen reader that can read text over gifsets. (If someone else has, by all means please correct me.) A series of six images that show the app being used to identify things from cups, Pepsi bottles in the store, and new Apple air buds. Text over images reads: Aipoly is about to release an app that helps the blind “see” through their smartphone.The Aipoly Vision App can recognize objects at a speed of 3 times a second.It can help the visually impaired navigate through their daily life.It helps in situations where using your hands to feel objects is not ideal. (Image shows Aipoly recognizing a toilet)It also recognizes up to 900 colors, making it useful for the sighted and colorblind.

That’s such a good point!

y’all ever see a sibling interaction in media and just know….it was written by an only child

[robotslenderman]

Conversely… have you ever seen an only child wish they had a sibling because X, and just know they’ve never listened to a damn word anyone with a sibling has ever said because X never happens if you have a sibling?

Years ago, when I was buddies with a terrible no good very bad person (because of other reasons, obviously), this person was talking about her bad relationship with her dad and how she wished she had a sibling because her sibling would Get It and give her help with her dad.

Now, I don’t know the details of her relationship with her dad, and I do not at all think wishing that one was less alone is deserving of eye rolling, but one thing I will tell you is that anyone with a sibling just laughed their ass off at the last paragraph because SIBLINGS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY.

[laesfingemordaz]

As someone with a younger sibling, I second this:  SIBLINGS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY. 

Yup, NOT AT ALL.

[biwomensuggestion]

It’s never too late to realize you’re bisexual, and you don’t need to have experience with people of multiple genders, or anyone at all, to know that you’re bi. You don’t have to prove your sexuality to anyone, you knowing that you’re bi is enough.
