please read this story of a man accidentally discovering his wife is the world's best Tetris player
[image description: an excerpt of text that says:
“It’s funny,” I told Flewin. “We have an old Nintendo Game Boy floating around the house, and Tetris is the only game we own. My wife will sometimes dig it out to play on airplanes and long car rides. She’s weirdly good at it. She can get 500 or 600 lines, no problem.”
What Flewin said next I will never forget.
“Oh, my!”
/end id]
TL;DR on the article
The husband was writing an article on classic video game records, was surprised to find out that holding the Tetris record is a bit of a big deal, and mentions how good his wife is at it.
The guy he’s talking to mentions that the record is 327, way lower than his wifes usual scores of 500-600.
They travel to a tournament, and she goes to do her attempt. Just after she beats 327, and is climbing higher, a judge brings up to the husband that the specific version she’s playing actually has a different record of 545.
She overhears that she needs to beat 500-something, and keeps going, setting the record at 841.
which, they later find out, is her second-best record
There was a decent but ultimately forgettable fantasy novel I read a long time ago that had a single moment that stuck with me.
The protagonist has just won the world famous sword fighting competition in the big, rich capital and is talking to his mentor, and says something about being the best swordsman in the world. The mentor frowns and tells him that no, he isn't. He is the best swordsman out of the people that could afford to show up to this tournament. There could be a mercenary way out in the mountains, patrolling a snow encrusted fort's walls that could kick his ass and there was no way to know until he was already losing to the guy.
I think about that a lot, and how for every apparently dominant competitor, there might be a fucking ronin out there somewhere capable of destroying them.
Always reblog tetris ronin lady
Also true about singers and storytellers and philosophers and theologians. You only hear about the ones that are out there.

Well, that escalated quickly :3
Scene from “Strawberry Panic”
bpd girl: i think therefore i am. by nature of interrogating my own existence I can guarantee that I have such a thing to begin with. I am beautiful. I am perfect. I have a divine and immutable existence contained within and defined by my qualia and nothing else. I have the mandate of heaven. I have the divine right of kings. Maybe I should have been born better.
her girlfriend, walking home from the store: I should check my dms.

the rcbg characters' behavior is influenced by their metatextual role.
nichole acts like she's the main character of a story about growing breasts competitively. it's a really toxic way to act towards other people. it's also true in real life.
katherine acts like she's the narrative-designated primary love interest of the main character. this influences many of her worst decisions in the serial. it's also completely true in real life.
rashmi acts like she's always going to be disproportionately blamed for every bad thing she does and will just have to own up to them quickly, apologize profusely, and never truly be forgiven by anyone. metatextually she is a racialized trans woman in a work of fiction published online, whose first appearance had her be justifiably mean to the other characters.

You see that one? He's called the "heel." He looks mean and says a lot of scary things, but it's not real and he's actually very nice. When he says "I'm going to break you in half" you don't have to be scared because it's pretend. These two talked about this beforehand, and now they're playing pretend together. Can you think of any other situations that might be like this?
no that part was real
lots of good "reblog and tell me" posts recently so i wanna play. reblog and tell me the last film you watched on physical media. i'll go first mine was predators (2010) and i watched it on blu-ray.
