Thoughts on the theory that ch4 has the soul implanting a bit of itself in Noelle with the ThornRing? Afaik the theory is supported by the animation (spiderwebbing out through Noelle’s body) and when Susie questions Kris later about what the two were talking about, the empty dialogue box is from Noelle’s perspective (no/muted rain because she is in her house, no response because she didn’t hear the question) and the soul is trying to balance two (one and a half?) vessels

(DELTARUNE CHAPTER 4 WEIRD ROUTE SPOILERS !!!!!!!)

i hope people dont throw tomatoes at me for this one but i think it's really far fetched for us to Literally be implanting part of our soul into her, finger, in the scene where all that's actually happening is we're forcing the thorn into her finger/hand/whatever and all the Red Stuff that shows up afterwards is like, purely symbolic or even just blood at most. in my opinion

even though its a complicated-ish theory i almost think it would be .... too easy???? to simplify it down to that? to say we're like Literally making her our vessel the way we've been controlling kris as one. idk i think keeping it more psychological would be most interesting ultimately. tapping into noelle's innermost desires -- wanting to stand up for herself, wanting the power to grasp what it is she truly craves, wanting to be close to kris again because she misses how things used to be -- all this being twisted and sullied and bent to our OWN desires to the point where originalnoelle is almost unrecognizable, all while we're not actually controlling her as a Fantastical Vessel... is far more interesting i think. we're forcibly digging deep into her psyche to pull out things she doesn't even realize about herself, since she's been drifting through life in a trance just trying to pretend everything's ok and she's happy. it might look like she has it all, but...

anyway. Dont kill me but i dont like the theory all that much lol. I just. Dont think souls can do that. or SHOULD do that even. although the bit later with susie is honestly really spooky and interesting but in the end i dont think it actually has anything to do with noelle herself. the screen turning reddish and the rain completely stopping (iirc) honestly feels like, if anything the soul is just???? growing more powerful or something(idk)?????? or its all just purely visual like with the palette shift in the couch scene. it could represent kris's and the player's growing conflict of interest -> all of the choices being completely blank because kris is just Not having it from us anymore

if this theory somehow is true and it did happen i think it would be really fucking funny for just 1 pixel to be missing from the soul for the entire rest of the game though LMAO

really dislike having to break it to goyim that (((this))) is in fact a nazi thing and not just a cute way to signify whispering through text.

I want this fucking AI bubble to pop already, anyone who thought it was a good idea to invest money into what’s literally a machine that does nothing but lie and steal deserves to lose everything

I’m already really scared of what’s going on and the knowledge that AI is draining our resources and harming our critical thinking skills is NOT helping. Especially being an artist, I’m becoming worried that people might be feeding my art into AI

I don’t know if it’s just anxiety or paranoia anymore, fucking hell

a review from someone completely unfamiliar with Wicked said that in the opening song, Glinda felt really insincere and like she didn't want to be there (which the reviewer framed as a bad thing) and like

she sure did seem that way huh

oftentimes i put in a lot of effort to do something, say, study for an exam, and then when i hear other people complaining about how hard it was, how badly they did, etc, i’m, like, very unsympathetic. i don’t generally consider myself a mean person, but in cases like these, i’m like, (mentally of course i don’t say this stuff out loud) ‘well, they should’ve tried harder, if they didn’t study enough of course they failed, they should fail’ or ‘they should shut up and take accountability instead of griping’ and i think these circumstances are when my thoughts get the most mean

Having what amounts to a philosophical debate with my mother about the division of body/mind/soul making emotion and rationality distinct organs from one another, versus my contention that feelings and rational though are intrinsically bound, constituting the "psyche", and make up a continuum of cognitive response to stimulus. I'm doing this so she will maybe attempt to empathize with my emotional responses to my father's near-constant emotional abuse, hoping she may begin to view my emotions as something rationally stemming from stimulus, rather than some kind of unknowable, purely-subjective black box. Which is basically how I was treated through my whole childhood. The subject at hand was the way I was and continue to be treated as though I'm hysterical and irrational for my feelings.
