While exploring a ruin, a strange ancient artifact explodes, and Dorian and the Iron Bull wake up to find themselves in each other's bodies. They'll have to navigate a very literal walk in someone else's shoes, as they discover new things and recontextualise their understanding of each other along the way. Also, naturally, they make it a sex thing.
Hello all my lovely followers! I have found 9 mods on Nexus mods that blatantly whitewash Isabela from Dragon Age 2. It's crazy to me that these mods have been up for 15 years and still haven't been taken down. But I believe if we work together we can finally get them removed.
If you can click the links below, they’ll take you to the mod pages. Click the "Report Abuse" button as seen below.
Then select the option "I believe this mod is breaking the rules". Then select "Inappropriate content". When asked why the content is inappropriate, select “Other Terms of Service violation”.
Finally leave a brief description and photo. Here’s a message example written by @dalishious and customizing it is encouraged so as to not get spam filtered:
This mod changes a Black character to make her white, and breaks the Inappropriate Content guidelines: “Content that may be generally construed as provocative, divisive, objectionable, discriminatory, or abusive toward any real-world individual or group, may be subject to moderation.” As such, this mod should not belong on NexusMods and must be removed.
It'll only take a few minutes to report them all. And it would be nice to have less racism in this fandom and in the world in general. Please help and report this stuff and/or share it with others. Thank you!
A sexy new black and silver outfit for my Fair Skinned Isabela. ;)

I’m also going to include Isabela Is Black by @dalishious. It'll give you a brief look into the whitewashing of Isabela.
sometimes people experiencing psychosis and/or mania will come up to you on the street and talk in confusing or upsetting ways. your job is to either have a regular human-to-human conversation with that person or politely leave. your job is not to call 911. do not call 911. you might kill that person if you call 911.
I don't even have the energy to screenshot and respond to your tags- what the actual fuck is wrong with you? "the cops are scared and rightfully so" "mental health calls are the scariest for cops" OH so this isn't about the safety of psychotic & manic people this is about piggy feelings?
and no, actually, this is not USA specific and no, actually, people from other countries should not ignore this post. police violence and sanism weren't invented in the US and they are certainly not unique to here. if you (or anyone) thinks that this bullshit doesn't happen elsewhere then you are not listening.
This is legitimately useful reframing. A while ago I started replacing the word "cop" in my vocabulary with "a man with a gun." It really puts things into perspective.
This homeless person is making me uncomfortable. Should I call [a man with a gun]?
My neighbor is having a loud party. Should I get [a man with a gun] involved?
There are some teenagers skateboarding. Do you think [a man with a gun] would get rid of them for me?
It makes it very clear what you're saying. I can call a man with a gun to threaten or hurt someone mildly inconveniencing me. You're not calling the cops, you're calling A MAN WITH A GUN into a situation that does not warrant a firearm handled by a volatile lunatic who will not be held accountable for his actions.
Game companies hate emulation, but none of them seem to understand that a lot of us would just buy ROMs from them directly if we could. I don't want a fifth remake of Final Fantasy IV, I want to pay five bucks for the 3MB file you already made bank with thirty years ago. Nobody who wants to play something for the purpose of retro gaming is going to consider a $40 remake as the alternative option, and we're certainly not going to let the original dissappear. They're crying about opportunity cost for a product they're not even selling.
op i know you're probably talking about like, video games, etc, but this is also critical for research science - my lab has so much abandonware, either because the company's out of business, or the company decided to not maintain it, and it's a fucking nightmare. we have two windows 95 computers that are CRITICAL for performing experiments/data analysis because the software needed is abandonware. one of the main roles for a guy in my lab is to maintain these little dinosaurs because if they go out, we lose access to ~20 years of raw data for research. part of why is that these companies also make their own file types, and make it difficult-to-impossible to convert those file types without their specific software. by habit, i convert all research files to more generic versions (txt, pdf, tif, etc) so that i minimize risk of losing my shit, but some stuff can't be converted.
for example, we have a microscope that is perfectly functional, good microscope, but its software is abandonware because the company refused to maintain it. the company is still in business, still makes essentially the exact same software, but they made all of the old tech incompatible with new software to force people to buy the new microscope tech. it would cost a quarter million dollars to replace this microscope. this perfectly good microscope.
so like, i know a lot of people look at the original post here and go "well op just wants old video games to play" (which is valid! games companies should not be able to push shit to abandonware and then close it off) but also this is critical for like. biomedical research. if y'all had any idea how much basic infrastructure built on science relies on shit that is technically abandonware, you would probably be horrified.
Hello! I was going through my old likes recently to catalogue my old fandoms, and while they changed often, one of the only consistent things in my likes over the years was your art and ideas.
Thank you for creating, I adore your style and your way of thinking and it’s been a big inspiration for my own artistic journey and I am very grateful. Thank you!
this is like the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me, thank you so much for the incredibly sweet words 🥹🥹🥹 i'm gonna go cry now
Everyone's mad at Hasan Piker for saying America deserved 9/11 but the truth is America deserves like a thousand 9/11s in a row just to get to the level of violent death they've committed against other countries
Obviously barring that decapitating every single US soldier and pro war politician is an acceptable compromise
