What is your opinion on Scythe Volta. This is very important to me.
one of my favorite characters in the series! the scenes of rowan’s time training under goddard always either infuriated me (bc of goddard) or bored me (bc of a lack of curie), but volta was always a character i enjoyed reading.
part of me realllyyyy wishes neal took his character in a different direction. imagine volta didn’t die (or did and got revived ljke goddard did) and subsequently joined the old guard, or at the very least spoke out against goddard at the following conclave. i understand why neal chose to kill him, but i think he has is an incredible character thay really could’ve taken the series down a different , perhaps better, path.
this post was calling my name i fear...
recently i was rereading scythe and i was like man. volta is funny as fuck??? he's so sarcastic and he's such a little shit??? i love him dearly. the scene where goddard is threatening xenocrates and volta is eavesdropping the whole time was one of my favorite scenes in the entire book. i had so much fun with it
every day i wish he had lived or that we had at least gotten to know more about him💔 i think a volta backstory as part of 'gleanings' would have been amazing
Genuinely wanna know if its a regional thing or what that this site seems to unanimously dislike beer

@im-not-a-porno you wanted an airstrike, right?
And look at that it's little Leo! Though he might be dead now... 😬
@witless-winion1
not using AI genuinely feels like the rest of the world is experiencing some kind of mass amnesia. if someone says they never use it, the immediate response is that can't be true because "everyone" uses it to write their emails or answer their questions. saw a comment suggesting that not using chatgpt to write an essay is "like the 90s". girl I graduated in 2021 and we weren't doing that! how is it that everyone has suddenly forgotten that they were entirely capable of doing these things all by themselves for their entire lives up until the past few years!! am I going crazy!!!
I'll never forget the way the theatre (and I) burst into claps and cheers when Mike ripped Balloon boy's head right off.

Hey.
Do you ever think part of the reason Georgie stayed by Jon’s bedside through all 6 months of his coma but then abruptly walked out of his life when he woke up is because she was fully expecting to be a caregiver for him during a long, grueling post-coma recovery process?
Do you think part of the reason she was so spooked by him waking up (relatively) unscathed is because she had mentally, physically, and emotionally prepared herself to take him in? That her best case scenario — what she had planned and hoped for — was that he’d wake up with severe cognitive and/or physical deficits, as one would expect from someone who survived an explosion and six months in a coma? That he’d have to re-learn how to walk or talk or eat or hold a spoon on his own? That he would *need* someone, and even if it wasn’t what she wanted for herself or him, she had decided she would step up and be that person for him?
It can be so jarring when you build up a vision of your near future around one assumption, only for that assumption to be completely shattered by reality. Do you think she constructed a future for him in her head, and when he woke up “fine”, she was so startled by the breaking of her expectations that it felt almost like a betrayal? And the sheer uncanny impossibility of him waking up “fine” made her think that her friend was dead after all?
Do you think that after Martin stopped coming around and Georgie found herself alone at Jon’s bedside, she realized she was all he had left in the world? The only one who held onto hope that he would survive in some form? The only one who thought he could wake up, severely disabled by his experiences but free at last? The only one who thought he deserved the chance at a mundane life after all of this, even if that life would look radically different? Do you think she grappled with the reality that if she didn’t step up for him, no one would? Do you think she spent long hours coping with the fact that she was going to have to take on new responsibilities and make new sacrifices for him, but she was willing to do it for an old friend who deserved better than the hand he was dealt? Do you think she mourned her old vision of her future, before she reconstructed that vision around caring for him?
Do you think she started talking to Jon’s doctors about what she could expect if she brought him home after he woke up? What kinds of disabilities he would live with, and what the prognosis was? About his quality of life afterwards? His road to recovery? Do you think she made up her spare bedroom with a severely disabled person in mind, and then started looking into hiring a part time caregiver to come help her make sure Jon got the help (she assumed) he’d need? Do you think she did all kinds of research into brain injuries and their aftermath? Physical therapy for people with severe atrophy? NG tubes for re-feeding severely starved people? Occupational therapists?
Do you think part of the reason she was so upset when he woke up (relatively) unscathed, lucid and talking and breathing on his own, maybe a little physically weak but still much like his old self, is because she had realistic expectations of what his life would look like after his injuries? And seeing him suddenly defy all odds by waking up into a full cognitive and physical recovery — a completely unrealistic hope that she never even considered as part of the realm of possibility — only reinforced the idea that the old Jon was dead, and this new Jon wasn’t safe for her to be around?
Do you think it hurt when she realized she couldn’t bring him home?
I think about that.
He also fully embodied her statement... he was dead. No heartbeat. No breath. Arrested of movement and function - all except his mind.
The change in her friends eyes when faced with death, and the change in Jon.... Georgie was robbed of fear, she couldn't feel the terror she should have, but she was smart enough to recognize what was missing.
I think she removed herself from him in part because she knew he was so deeply a part of fear now, and she couldn't be trusted to act in a reasonable manner around him as the one person who couldn't gauge how wrong he truly was.
Oooh ow ow ow that’s fucked up too and I love it…. Maybe she meant it more literally than we thought when she said she couldn’t let herself be “dragged down with him”. She’s self-aware enough to know that her frame of reference is skewed. I always thought it was fucked up of her to tell him that he’s losing his humanity and needs people around him to help him stay true to himself, but then turn around and remove herself from his support network. But now that decision makes more sense. She *can’t* help him counterbalance or combat his connection to Fear because she doesn’t feel it.
Okay so addressing this rb— good point, @dysfunctionalcreature!!! Your comment made me realize I may have based this whole meta on an assumption I made, or a widely accepted fanon, as is often the trap people fall into with their favorite longform media. So I went back in the transcripts to check the source material for evidence to back up my little thesis!!
Please enjoy the following textual analysis, courtesy of a bored English Major who doesn’t get to use their literary analysis skills much irl:
Ep 121:
If you would turn your attention to figure 1!!
Fig. 1.1: This line implies, to me, that Georgie visits often enough to have a sense of who does or doesn’t generally visit Jon in the hospital
Fig. 1.2: This implies that Georgie checks in with Jon’s nurses regularly enough that they would’ve notified her of a new visitor on the way in if they had seen Oliver
Fig. 1.3: Here’s Georgie displaying a significant show of protectiveness over Jon while he’s helpless. Arguably, this could also be chalked up to her (justifiable) hostility to anyone End-affiliated, and her desire to get Oliver Out of her General Vicinity. But it’s worth noting that if her *only* motivation is to be Away from Oliver, she could’ve just given him a minute alone with Jon like he asked. Instead she goes on the defensive. She practically chases Oliver out of the room, rather than flee and leave Jon alone with a potential threat. For all she knows in this moment, she could very well be putting herself in serious danger by getting between Oliver and Jon. She knows the minute she lays eyes on Oliver that he’s Bad News, but she doesn’t hesitate. Just because Georgie doesn’t feel fear doesn’t mean she can’t recognize risk. She knows EXACTLY what she’s risking in this moment, and she does it anyway. That, to me, feels like a significant show of loyalty and care. You see this defensiveness continue on here in Fig. 2:
Fig. 2.1: Okay so after that tense interaction, we get THIS cute little line where Georgie talks to Jon in his coma, knowing he may or may not be able to hear him. It’s generally encouraged to talk to coma patients. And if I remember correctly, her like delivery is casual. Conversational. Implying that she’s comfortable talking to his functionally-dead body. She’s Been Here. She intends to continue Being Here. In addition, the sentiment she’s expressing in this line is also one of care and protection! She cares about who he’s spending time with. She wants him to be surrounded by people who are good for him, not pulling him deeper into danger.
Fig. 2.2: In a continuation of my earlier point in 1.3, here we see Georgie run AFTER Oliver after she’s finally got him to leave. If we extrapolate our earlier assumption that she knows very well what a risk this is, we again see reinforcement of her loyalty to Jon. Here, she’s afraid Oliver may have done something to Jon while she wasn’t there, or left something sinister behind. At the very least, she clocks that Oliver recorded something or left something behind, and she’s not gonna let that slide. Again, she goes against her own discomfort for Jon’s sake.
And last but not least, here’s the lines in Ep 122 that essentially define Jon and Georgie’s falling-out:
Not much to say on this tbh. The lines speak for themselves. Georgie is honestly, genuinely disappointed to see him wake up no worse for wear. And WOW does that hurt. But he’s awake now. He’s cognitively whole. He’s making his own decisions. He’s not helpless anymore, which means he’s no longer her responsibility. And now that he’s no longer her responsibility, she finally gets to make a Choice about whether she’s going to continue trying to be a caregiver for him in light of this information. She runs a risk assessment on the spot and realizes… no, she’s not willing to make those sacrifices for someone who A) isn’t physically or financially dependent on her and B) poses a danger to her via his very existence.
I remember her delivery of that “Goodbye” having a certain ring of finality to it, and Jon calling out after her sounded pretty heartbroken and desperate to stop her from walking out. Because he knew that once she was gone, that was it for them. But ultimately he lets her go.
So, in summary: No, it’s never explicitly stated in the text that Georgie stuck by his bedside for six months. But I got that impression from details in the source material which, to me, feel like a strong implication.
So yay! Glad to know I wasn’t just pulling this meta out of my ass lol. I was just kinda trusting my recollections when I wrote the original post, but it’s vindicating to look back on the text and find evidence to back it up.
Is there really that much difference between flying and falling?
Beyond the fear, of course…
“perryshmirtz is problematic because it’s bestiality”: overplayed, kneejerk reaction, demonstrates lack of understanding of the source material
“perryshmirtz is problematic because it’s a professional conflict of interest”: fresh, sexy, demonstrates concern for perry’s career image
Yes, there is context for this.
No, I will not elaborate.

Tumblr Sexy Doctor
Round Two:
Morbius Doctor 5
Dr. Who
Clearer archived photos of Morbius Doctor 5:
extremely underrated dr who scenario is pairing up classic who companions w later incarnations of the Doctor and having them be like 'wtf why is the Doctor hot now'. just like people who have never for one second thought of the Doctor as attractive suddenly having the most disconcerting crush of their life.
anyway here are my top picks for Doctors to do this with:
Three: listen im not into Three personally but I do think he's the sexiest classic doctor. if you are into older men just unbelievably charming & debonair & well dressed. definitely some guys n gals who would love this Doctor to sweep them off their feet and feel very confused about it.
Eight: something i love about Eight is how oblivious he is to his own prettyboy status. 'I am treating people the same as I always do,' he says. 'why do my companions keep falling in love with me.' they would all fall under his spell.
Thirteen: now i have to say i don't think Thirteen is a very sexy Doctor due to being some kind of weird little gremlin, however, great one to sick on any and all lesbian companions. thought you were immune to the Doctor's weird flavour of sexiness?? think again!
Fifteen: nuclear bomb!! nuclear bomb!! companions who've never experienced one iota of attraction to the Doctor are drowning in his eyes. companions are having their bi awakenings. honestly i think he is flustering everyone regardless of whether they're attracted to him due to his warm and loving nature. insanity inducing incarnation.
It's a human superpower, forgetting.
