i had a dream last night that the entire world used a currency (?) called angrypennies which as the name implies are obtained by experiencing anger. the stronger and more intense your anger was, the more angrypennies you'd gain. an all-consuming rage would earn you more than a slight irritation, etc. so people were always searching for ways to fuel their anger and purposefully keeping themselves angry all the time because they wanted to earn angrypennies. unclear if angrypennies could be exchanged for goods and services, or if they were just a collectible.

anyway, as if this wasn't heavy-handed enough, at one point british comedian greg davies appeared and explained that angrypennies couldn't be worth feeling angry all the time. this was a real revelation to dream-me and i was finally able to break free of the angrypenny grind and allow myself to experience emotions other than anger.

[kat]

it goes without saying that i will be using the word angrypenny as if it was part of the common vernacular instead of a term that my dreaming brain conjured up i.e. "he's all about the angrypennies" (derogatory way to refer to a guy who searches for reasons to be angry and possibly lacks introspection)

“People should pass a test before being allowed to have kids.” “Isn’t it scary how white people have this inborn capacity for evil?” “I’ll never pass because males and females have different skull shapes.” “Autistic people have a stronger sense of justice than anyone else.” “I don’t want AMABs in my space because they’re dangerous.” “You shouldn’t have access to hormones if you dress like THAT.” “Anyone who does something that awful isn’t human.” “Some people really shouldn’t be allowed to vote.”

This is eugenics. This is phrenology. THIS IS NAZI SHIT, YOU ARE A LEFTIST BUYING INTO NAZI SHIT. YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE TO NAZI SHIT.

Kernelsprite Theory

Certain Darkners are more complex and knowledgeable than is typical.

We will call these special Darkners "kernelsprites".

They know about game mechanics that other Darkners don't mention except as one-off gags. They have a working understanding of both Light and Dark Worlds. They know the deal as far as prophecy goes. They are capable of self-reflection and of choosing to follow or not follow their roles.

These Darkners are intended as guides and are created for a particular Lightner.

Ralsei is Kris's* kernelsprite.

Flowery is Asgore's.

*(Possibly intended for Susie and Noelle too, but he has a preference he makes clear on plenty of occasions.)

[moddeydhoo]

The rivalry, the needling, the "you can't just DO that"...

Flowery's fake stats aren't the most suspicious part. It's that he knows what stats are in the first place. He knows what genre he's in. He knows when's the time to play at cool wise big-brother mentor and when's the time for a noble sacrifice.

Flowery feels so fake because he consciously chose a role. Ralsei hates that because Ralsei consciously accepted his role. They're not the same, but they're only one choice apart.

And the player keeps telling Ralsei it's okay not to smile...

How to Ride a Werewolf

Now remember, a lady rides sidesaddle, NOT astride. Your mother would be in hysterics at the very idea that a daughter of hers would ride a werewolf astride! Why, next you’ll be showing ankle…

That’s not how you ride a werewolf ill show you how to ride a werewolf !!

I know this is from Australia but when I first saw the words “Victorian man” all I could think of was this:

[cockyhorror]

To be fair imagine you just arrived in 2018 from Victorian England and discovered Take On Me, what are you supposed to do, not blast it loud enough for your family to hear it all the way back in 1876?

The thing about Rick & Morty for me is that, right from the start, the show has always been this kind of ungraceful balancing act between really intelligent and punchy deconstructions of popular science fiction tropes (fascinating!) and Roland & Harmon drunkenly soapboxing their alcohol-induced nihilist materialism like they have any kind of special perspective on life (boring!)

[asteroidtroglodyte]

Like, I’m monistically and atheistically materialist myself, but if I wanted to watch somebody drop their pants and take a big stinking shit on people’s attempts to find Meaning in a Meaningless Universe I can just watch my old video blogs from when I was an alcoholic I don’t need a streaming subscription for that

I love the classic sci fi references, but I find I need to take long breaks when I notice myself getting harder and colder.

It's oddly hard to find (popular, accessible) stuff that has my kind of nerd vibe without the white-men-who-kill-god aftertaste.
