Hey all,

In my absence, Eman's village's situation has been getting worse, far far worse. As the fabric of Sudan's medical and other social infrastructures have been destroyed by war and genocide, displaced people are seeing a high risk of disease outbreaks amongst them. This is what Eman's village is currently going through, and her family has been one of many affected by dengue fever.

Eman is scared, alone, and feels like her family's situation is invisible. Please show her that she isn't alone, and that her and her family and her village aren't invisible. Please if you can spare anything, help Eman @emiiii980 out.

Donate to Help Eman rebuild her destroyed home and get to a safe place, organized by Simran K

Hi, Gofundme family, I am Simran and this campaign is create… Simran K needs your support for Help Eman rebuild her destroyed home and g

There are a lot of people who start creative projects with no business or financial plan, because "who cares, it isn't important, we'll figure that out later". And you can't let yourself become that person. Not because I'm a sneering finance bro who thinks your woke animated youtube series wont make money, but because if you don't you'll wind up financially exploiting your friends for years

[mollyjames]

Look, it's none of my business if you wanna work yourself to the bone for no money so you can make your dream project a reality. I think you shouldn't, but also let's be real that's basically a rite of passage for young creatives. But as soon as you start involving other people? You need a plan. You need to be able to compensate them for their time, and you need to have it in writing

no ok here's my actual take about the oot remake: I am at heart skeptical about the current direction for tloz because of totk and aoi and the type of environment they fostered, especially when it comes to the thematic fabric of tloz and its depiction of gerudo characters. I am not expecting much from this because Ganondorf will be there, and Ganondorf being there generally means there's a free pass to liberally thread with extremely caricatural orientalist tropes without any pushback whatsoever (because brown men just aren't considered people if you invoke enough imagery of vague misogyny to justify their dehumanization), and OoT suffers from a lot of the same issues than TotK, and TotK just did (imo) OoT Again But Worse, to extremely limited mainstream critique (if any), so I unfortunately feel like Nintendo won't feel any pressure to try to do better this time around. :(

THAT BEING SAID!! That being said! I also want to be excited. As much as I'm a bit skeptical on some of the technical execution of the idea from what we've seen so far, I'm interested to see if they are going into kind of an dollhouse type of look, with a lot of insistance on the fairy tale aesthetics, which I kiiind of feel they might be going for?? And I don't think it's a bad idea at all! In fact I think it could help carrying some of the darkness of the setting without making it literally +16 with today standards for what content should and shouldn't be in a game. If that's the direction, I'm genuinely super curious!

And to my first point: even though I'm very much a scaredy cat about the issue (and the way it may spill over everything --and in general I'm just tense around Nintendo's weird revisionist strike about TLoZ ever since TotK), Echoes of Wisdom gives me *some* degree of hope. I think Echoes probably did the best job it could given the material it was working with, and it did so with incredible discretion and cleverness, so perhaps there will be some touch of that effort sprinkled in there!

So to recap: I want to be curious and open to be positively surprised! I know I probably won't be happy with the result, but I don't gain anything from assuming the worst, even though I am mentally preparing myself for it because you know, I have reasons to be at this point unfortunately. But there are things I'm very very curious about! There are things I even look forward to seeing! Literally: we are getting a rework of OoT's soundtrack! I'm so fucking down for that let's fucking goooo!!!!!

You're just saying that because your a sick pervert who gets off to themes and ideas

[memorizingthedigitsofpi]

There are lots of reasons why fandom is "quieter" now than it used to be. Some theories are more compelling to me than others, and they all have a different scale of impact. We'll never know for sure, of course, but I like to think about it. Thus, this poll.

Of the list below, which reason do you find most compelling or do you think had the biggest impact?

New entrants to fandom don't know the old ways

fandom olds didn't teach the newcomers how to fandom

covid/surge in fandom due to quarantine and lockdowns

"antis" and other harassment campaigns against creators

creators posting complaints about comments (people worry about commenting wrong)

rise of discord popularity - fandom is walled off from each other

tumblr porn ban and other reasons people left the site

capitalism turning fandom into a passive "view and move on" commodity

rules from social media impacting fan culture (eg. don't comment on old posts)

general state of the world / burnout

social anxieties in an increasingly complex online culture

"surveillance state" worries and not wanting to be perceived

Remaining time: 5 days 2 hours

This is an incomplete list, so if your most compelling reason isn't listed, feel free to add it in the notes.

oh just thought about Navi and Ganondorf post hero’s defeat downfall timeline interaction. augh ow.

[fieldsofbran87]

okay to elaborate. if you think of Navi as a character and not a mediocre gaming tips machine for 2 seconds she’s so sad. It is clear that she was close to the original Deku Tree, which may have something to do with the fact that she isn’t bonded to a Kokiri before Link, or maybe he and the fairies are just all buddies idk. Anyway that’s her friend/father figure, whom Ganondorf poisons to death in cold blood for not giving him the emerald. She has just as much as/possibly more of a personal stake in this quest than (depending on his relationship to the Deku) Link. Now, considering the downfall timeline, it is immensely fucked up that she guides this kid on his journey, watches him go through all this horrible stuff, only to see him also get killed by Ganondorf when she is PHYSICALLY PREVENTED FROM HELPING HIM!!! Navi is literally removed from the first half of the final boss fight by his magic. She was tasked with protecting Link, avenging the Deku Tree, and stopping Ganondorf, only to fail at all three. I cannot imagine the guilt. Meanwhile I don’t know if Ganondorf even like. Full registers her as a player in any of this. Literally the definition of “you took EVERYTHING from me” “I don’t even know who you are”

Suffice to say I think the immediate aftermath of the hero’s death where it’s just them in the tower was incredibly intense and miserable.
