“Elysium…The world needs a term of endearment.”

My favourite words from Disco Elysium.

(Bonus:)

[strangeite]

[ID: A series of quotes from Disco Elysium with the portraits of whoever is saying them, over screenshots of the game at the places those quotes occur.

Image 1: Steban, the student communist - “In dark times, should the stars also go out?”

Image 2: The officers go, leaving behind the writing - still smouldering. One day, it says, I will return to your side.

Image 3: Kim Kitsuragi - “Sunrise, Parabellum. Sunrise, Preper-for-War. It’s an old revolutionary saying.”

Image 4: You shouldn’t listen to what people say, you should listen to what they are.

Image 5: Insulindian Phasmid - You are a violent and irrepressible miracle. The vacuum of cosmos and the stars burning in it are afraid of you.

Image 6: [Caps: I need you. You can keep me on this earth. Be vigilant. I love you.]

Image 7: Conceptualization [Medium: Success] - Two birds on a wire, whistling by the seaside. Looking at the water. And a sunken car.

Image 8: Ancient Reptilian Brain - It’s the world, Harry-boy. And you’re made of it. Every day you’re out there you make more of yourself from it. I’m afraid you can’t be unmade now.

Image 9: Joyce Messier - “Great bodies of water, forest-covered surfaces… clusters of light where the cities lie. You’ve seen the montage, we all have - this world is enough,” she concludes.

Image 10: Volition [Easy: Success] - No. This is somewhere to be. This is all you have, but it’s still something. Streets and sodium lights. The sky, the world. You’re still alive.

Image 11: Encyclopedia [Medium: Success] - [Caps: After life - death; after deat - life again. After the world - the pale; after the pale - the world again.

Image 12: You - “Off we go into the wild pale yonder.” Joyce Messier - “One and all,” she closes her eyes. “They say pale is death, but for the Universe.” Inland Emprie - Why should we just leave and leave - and the world get left behind?

Image 13: “…the Mother will eat all of you, and never spit you out.”

Image 14: A screenshot of Harry and Kim standing in front of a wall on which the words “Something beautiful is going to happen” have been painted in large red letter.

I legit needed to hear this

[hamotzi]

happy hanukkah!!!!

[aurumacadicus]

*gasp* hanukkats

[estera-shirin]

Absolutely devastating news from Australia that at least 11 people were killed in an antisemitic attack on a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney. One of those who was murdered, Alex Kleytman z”l, was a Holocaust survivor. His wife, also a Holocaust survivor, saw as he was shot. I cannot imagine the grief and pain she and many others are feeling.

My heart is with all the victims and their loved ones, as well as the broader Jewish community in Australia. May the memories of the victims be a blessing.

We deserve to be able to congregate and observe Jewish holidays without fear of violence, in Australia and globally.

[estera-shirin]

I also want to commend the courage of Ahmed al Ahmed, a man who happened to be walking by when the shooting began and rushed to disarm one of the shooters, despite being unarmed himself. Ahmed is the owner of a fruit shop and a father of two. He was shot twice during his brave intervention and is now in the hospital. I am praying for his swift recovery and the recovery of all the others who were injured in this attack.

[less-freshly-vegan]

I'm vegan for the animals, but every time I see news articles about climate change, I also remember how if you suggest even eating less animal products people freak out as if you'd suggested eating their own pets. And then I feel kinda...angry and disappointed. Even if you don't care about animals (and you should), the time to start cutting back is now.

[less-freshly-vegan]

To add to this...I say cutting back because I get that people often find the idea of veganism daunting. But we need to be making mass societal changes, so start however small you need, but start. Some ideas!:

"I'd go vegan but I'd miss bacon/cheese/regular chocolate" then do that. Eat cheese but skip the meat and eggs. Eat bacon but skip other types of meat. Eat mostly vegan but eat chocolate.

"I worry about protein" then experiment with vegan proteins to find some you enjoy. Swap chicken for seitan. Egg scramble can be tofu scramble. Pulses. Try it on a meatless Monday or something. (Also your average person does not need huge amounts of protein and it's in basically everything. Take a look at the stuff you already consume and add it up, you may be surprised.)

"It costs too much" listen look at the cost of meat then go look at the cost of beans, ok? In all seriousness unless you eat a lot of faux meats (which tbf some are pretty good) it probably won't be as bad as you think.

"Social gatherings are hard" don't eat vegan at social gatherings then, it's chill.

"I don't like fruit and vegetables" ok sorry unless you have a medical condition you may just need to work on this. Hide them in sauces or something. Try a variety. Idk. Fruit and veg is important.
