BOTDF ❤💋

[quasi-normalcy]

So when I was about 13 years old, we kept our computer in our basement, which is a place that I otherwise would not want to be. Not just because of children's natural fear of basements, but because my family's house was slowly sinking into the clay and the basement had already flooded many times and consequently always had a stubbornly persistent scent of mould to it. But our computer was there, and I liked playing games, and so I would spend long hours down there.

Anyways, I remember one time I was playing Birth of the Federation, and I really wanted to form an alliance with the Romulans. And I kept contacting them over and over each turn, trying to sweeten the pot a bit more until they agreed (I think that I was playing as the Federation or the Ferengi). And finally, I got this diplomatic message from them that was like: "If you continue to pester us with this, we will consider our friendship to be in abeyance," or words to that effect. And I was struck by this, because like...I had played *many* games of BotF before that, and I have never received such a message; I played several games after, and I never saw it again. I have asked around and looked online and I've never seen any record of such a message in the game's diplomacy text. But it is, admittedly, completely in character for the Romulans to say. And to this day, I have no idea whether this actually happened, whether it was a dream, or whether I was perhaps hallucinating from all of the mould spores I was inhaling. I also recall being very sickly and stupid when I was in junior high, and in retrospect, I wonder how much of that was just the hours that I regularly inhaling unfiltered mould while playing on the computer.

My friends, the second chapter of my fanfic is online! 

Star Wars: Balance of the Force

One year after the battle of Crait, the Resistance is still hiding from the First Order, surviving on hope, embodied by the young Rey from Jakku. Barely accepting her new status and duties, Rey will have to explore the deepest part of her soul to unleash her true potential.

At the same time, the First Order knows a period of semi-peace as the new Supreme Leader struggles from his broken soul. Ben Solo might not fit to rule over such an organisation especially when the Force keeps connecting him to his sworn enemy.

Characters: Ben Solo x Rey

Ships: Reylo, Stormpilot, FinnRose 

Rating: Mature

Extract:

She was in front of him, safe and sound. He dared to approach her and saw the sweat drops on her temples. She was so close, he could wipe them off. He stayed a bit, watching her and wondered why the force was showing him this and if she ever saw him in such intimate manners before, she must have.

I need to be serious (trigger warning)

Dahvie vanity has been accused big time of sexual assault to several minors. You can read about that here in huffposts article. I think we as a scene community need to really boycott botdf (even though its always been a scene band favorite) and show our support for the victims. the scene community needs to be a safe place for everyone and that cant happen if we all idolize a rapist.

I encourage other scene blogs to share this, and please! suggest other crunk bands that dont have rapist members !
