@shinkaakira
the usage of ‘nort’ as a verb within the fandom feels so natural and universally accepted and understood it’s easy to forget it’s not canon at all and in the actual games they’re like ‘he used them as a vessel’ or ‘he placed a fragment of his heart inside theirs to influence/control them as his puppets’ or some long-winded nerdy explanation. nah son. he norted them.

That's Fucking Awesome

from the same thread:
I have witnessed so much slaughter and death here
i think everyone in the bureau liked davenport and respected him (as like, the director's right hand, basically) but seeing as he rarely spoke and was almost always next to their boss, almost no one was really close to him. but you know who i think could have been? johann. think about it. johann was kind of a recluse as it is, and spent a lot of time alone with fisher, not talking, just playing music. and davenport didn't really speak but you know what he could do? sing.
he does a silly little song and dance during the candlenights party and it's played for laughs, but in the legato conservatory he sang opera for the voidfish and they adored it, and even in imbalance we see again how connected dav is to music.
so i imagine johann working on a new composition in fisher's chambers when davenport walks in, and johann assumes at first he's there on behalf of the director, but davenport just sits there and listens. and then he starts harmonising. and it's beautiful, and fisher is thrilled... and after a few days he comes back and they do it again, and again. and maybe johann feels that somehow, without words, davenport understands him better than anyone else- his loss, his wasted potential, his fear that every great thing he's ever done will be forgotten forever. and davenport feels the same way.
and maybe when the battle is over and magnus tells them all about johann, davenport is just devastated, and no one really understands why it hit him so hard. i think he listens to johann's mixtape a lot, remembering the one new friend he's made in these 12 lonely years, humming along.
hate that "amongus, amongi" is technically a fully serviceable noun in latin
this is only funny to me
i saw sussus amongus vent out of the curia on the ides of march.......
its been 6 months and im still not over this. easily best and most hilarious play in baseball history
for those who dont really understand:
-the first baseman had no reason to chase Baéz, if he just stepped on the bag he was automatically out
-theres two outs, so if hes out, the inning is over. even if the runner on second base gets home, the run doesnt count. its not until hes safe at first that the run scores
-theres no specific rule in baseball about running backwards from first, just that you “cannot retreat to home base” meaning so long as if you dont touch the plate, its fine
-Baéz ran backwards to kill enough to get the run to score, and then stole and extra base on the base on the bad throw
-HE TOOK THE TIME TO UMPIRE HIS OWN PLAY AND CALL SAFE
what a fucking sport yall
@fractaldunes
Javier Baéz’s nickname according to those announcers is El Mago which is spanish for The Wizard
Well earned
love how the explanations do not help at all
Let me see if I can break this down a little more.
Javier Báez (the batter, a Chicago Cub, wearing blue) has just hit the ball. His job is now to run around the bases - 1st, 2nd, 3rd, back to where he started (“home”), at which point he will have scored a point. In practice, he will probably stop partway, wait for the next batter to get a hit, and try to make it home from there.
The Pittsburgh Pirates (in white) are fielding. Their job is to stop the Cubs from scoring by getting them out, by various combinations of catching the ball and tagging people or bases with it.
The scoreboard (top left) shows that one Cub has already made it to second base, so he will resume running now that Javy has a hit. It also shows that two Cubs are out. If a third Cub gets out, their turn to bat will be over, it will be the Pirates’ turn to bat, and the Cubs can’t score anymore (for now, but that’s not relevant).
The Pirate at first base (the first baseman) has the ball. All he needs to do is step on first base while holding it before Javy gets there, and Javy is out. This is probably the number one most common thing a first baseman has to do.
He does not do it.
For some reason he starts chasing Javy, presumably trying to tag him with the ball directly. This is a perfectly legitimate way of getting him out, but also completely unnecessary.
This has never happened to Javy before. Unsure what else to do, he just kind of… jogs backwards away from him.
Meanwhile, the Cub who was at second base (Contreras) has made it all the way back to home. Because the Pirates’ first baseman has helpfully walked the ball back home, he can easily toss it to the Pirate at home (the catcher) who will tag Contreras out.
The catcher doesn’t tag him in time.
The umpire signals that Contreras is safe (not out).
Javy also signals that Contreras is safe, just for fun. He’s never been nearby when a teammate makes it home before, and he’s enjoying himself.
Notice that the score has not changed, even though Contreras made it home. That’s because Javy is still technically running to first base. If he gets out before he reaches it, the Cubs’ turn to bat is over, and nothing else that’s happened since he hit the ball matters.
Javy remembers this, and heads back to first base. The catcher throws the ball to another Pirates fielder, who is frantically running to do the first baseman’s job.
He doesn’t catch it.
Javy is safe at first. Contreras scores (although the scoreboard won’t change for a second).
Javy notices how far away that ball landed, and decides he can make it to second base before anyone picks it up and tags him out.
An offscreen Pirate throws the ball to second base, where another Pirate is ready and waiting to catch it, tag Javy out, and end the Cubs’ turn to bat.
He doesn’t catch it.
Javy is safe at second. The video doesn’t show it, but he will go on to score as well.
This should have been a very easy out for the Pirates, but through two dropped catches and one truly bizarre decision from the first baseman, they snatched defeat from the jaws of victory and turned it into two points for the Cubs.
The Cubs won this game by two points.
HAPPY OPENING DAY OF BASEBALL 2022 YALL. LETS PRAY FOR MORE OF THIS BULLSHIT
I know I’ve reblogged this before, but here’s a version with an explanation for folks unfamiliar with the game* and this amazing comment:
Never change, Pittsburgh
Happy Opening Day 2023 to our wonderful national pastime!
Brutus committed to the bit 100%.
Brutus, buddy, this is absolutely hilarious, but I think I understand now why Dante put you in the lowest pit of hell.

We've all heard of "Barry Bluejeans was the roadrunner to Kravitz's Wile E Coyote for like ten years post-Stolen Century pre-Gerblins" (impeccable concept, always hilarious) but consider:
Kravitz has attempted to reap Merle-Fuckin-Highchurch at least 4d6 times since he first appeared on this plane. Through a series of miscommunications, lucky rolls, slapstick shenanigans, and the occasional bout of divine intervention, he has never once succeeded.
Merle is totally oblivious to both his alleged crimes and Kravitz's increasingly desperate attempts to charge him for them.
“You alright there?” “Yeah, I’m fine. Pesky ravens can’t get enough of me today.”
[Cue Kravitz screaming into his hands behind a bush]
