What is going on here? Is this a Sister Wives situation? Cult housing? It's a compound of a main house that's a mansion w/what looks like a residence on each end, plus what the listing calls 5 "junior estates," for a total of 15bds, 31ba, 5 half baths, 30,000sqft, $11m. Plus, a 22 car garage with 2 apts.
So, this is the mansion that would be the cult-leader's place, or who knows what? Doesn't it look like there's at least one separate house attached to it on the right?
This looks like the entrance of a crime family boss's house.
Smallish living room for such a large place.
Check out the family dining room.
Another sitting area. Look at the vacuum tracks in the carpet. It must takes hours to vacuum all of this w/a standard size vacuum.
Huge kitchen with an oversized counter.
Smaller table for 8.
2 floor main bedroom.
It's got a loft.
Sister wives salon?
Nail station and kitchenette.
Family movie night.
Pool table and bar up here.
Bedroom suite.
One of the baths. What a boring, depressing place.
Yet another kitchen.
Everyone can hit the gym.
The pool.
One of the junior estates.
Looks like a studio apt. These residences are so cold and soulless.
With separate bedrooms.
9.82 acres. On the far right, that's a pond stocked with "Trophy Trout."
I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.
He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense
Y'know I'm so glad someone reminded me of this. Because this was also discussed.
My stepmother did NOT like the way her Libertarian Viking Neighbor framed pregnancy as the fetus "attacking the woman". She incredulously told him this was extremely disrespectful to expectant mothers to portray pregnancy as so violent and negative.
Libertarian Viking Neighbor's response was that people consensually hurt each other all the time, and "there's like a whole community about that, with the acronym the one that starts with a B" And his reasoning was that if the mother was consenting to bring attacked by the baby, it in fact wasn't violent and negative because there was consent.
He brought up people consensually hurting each other, didn't go for one of the obvious answers like boxing or body mods or something, no he went STRAIGHT TO BDSM and he DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE ACRONYM
got absolutely jumpscared seeing this motherfucker show up out of the blue I had no idea that he was from Homestuck specifically I though he was from like. Life
the entire next 70,000 pages of this comic could just be these two morons fucking around with each other like this and I would still be satisfied honestly
I actually started playing Earthbound sometime last year and so far it’s been a very similar experience, in that I’ve made fun of people comparing every single RPG ever made to Earthbound for almost ten years, but then actually playing it was just a constant stream of “oh my god, I’ve played SO MANY GAMES in my life that are all just directly lifting THIS EXACT BIT”
god I really REALLY hope that the Midnight Crew thing is not a premonition of how complicated Time Travel Bullshit is going to get in this series. this is just an intermission. they’re not gonna REALLY make you follow all that, it’s gonna be fine
new moron to moron communication just dropped, I will be taking 80,000 more pages of whatever’s happening between Dipshit 1 and Dipshit 2 here as well thank you
been trying to work out whether the time travel bullshit elements of Homestuck are Closed Loop (events are recursive, you can’t “change” the future because everything that would affect the past or future has already happened) or Open Loop (events branch into timelines, and actions taken can create entirely new timelines over old ones) and every page I read is introducing the slowly more horrifying idea that it might somehow be both of them at once
there is a multiple page extended reference to Barkley: Shut Up and Jam Gaiden in this comic, which fucks me up because I can’t believe that game predates this comic by two years, but also explains SO MUCH of the writing style. the sense of humor in both of these series is IDENTICAL
most of the appeal of this comic for me is just watching it smash different flavored idiots together and seeing them combine into a new dumbass dynamic every time
this series presents an incredibly intriguing form of the “how does christmas as a holiday exist in fictional works where Jesus Christ obviously wouldn’t exist” thought experiment by portraying a world in which all of the practices and paraphernalia of Juggalos exist but the Insane Clown Posse just doesn’t
the very first piece of info about Vriska we learn being that she has like twelve different character sheets and endless pages of campaign ideas for different TTRPGs that no one she knows wants to run with her is a stroke of genius; it’s a look into her psyche that explains literally everything else she does from that point on
this is both 1) not an unreasonable thing for Eridan to conclude, considering that most of the women in his social circles are, in fact, actively attempting to kill each other at any given time, and b) a REAL case of having a nail-shaped problem and suddenly seeing everyone around you as angry hammers
why did not one of you motherfuckers tell me that Megalovania was originally written in the Mega Man X soundfont. every song on planet earth should be written in the Mega Man X soundfont
something I really appreciate about the trolls is how deeply rooted they each are in being different archetypes of Forum People, like I know for a fact the author KNEW and HATED some of these motherfuckers in real life. no other comic is out here asking questions like “what if that one furry RP blogger who absolutely positively will not stop posting in character no matter the context AND that racist weirdo who gets into thread-clogging arguments all the time because he types every argument like a Final Fantasy villain were bestieeeeeeeees <3”
Dude, someone’s full on blasting this outside, and I thought I was having some kind of episode. The relief I felt when I Googled “the boys are back in town to kill you?” and there was an actual result is incalculable.
