If you're ever feeling charitable, have 20 bucks burning a hole in your pocket, or want to make a broke tgirl's day, I have my Steam wishlist public now
According to what I've found, all you need to do is friend me, gift the game, and then unfriend me (or we can stay friends if you want! I'm probably just gonna be really really quiet)
Everything on the list is under $20 USD without tax.

important reminder that most people you follow online are significantly lamer than you think they are including me. and if you feel insecure comparing yourself to someone online: DON'T. theyre probably also lame and weird. most people on the internet are
reblog if you're also lame and weird.
If I ever don’t reblog this, you can assume I’m dead. It’s just pure, sound-design gold.
The cuts, the slow ramp-ups, how it matches his dance moves.
MWAH.

Because I'm afraid of Discord, I'm sharing these this way.
These are the designs for the face cards. Like I said, I got weird with them

Isn't she lovely 😭
please god let chatgpt die out like nfts did. With a fast and graceless fall into irrelevancy
Like to charge, reblog to cast.
This spell has a very low hit ratio, so we need a lot of us to do it.
Had to leave my wife (gf. We aren't married) and go home.
A day's train ride later and I'm already back home
We miss each other lots
If to be known is to be loved then to share yourself is to love.
I am so glad that I got so much time to share myself with her
I love the incredibly fair and functional justice system in Ace Attorney
It was written as a parody of the fairly corrupt Japanese legal system, exaggerated for both humour and gameplay reasons, giving us such lovely gems as:
They don't have manslaughter
It's never stated outright to my knowledge, but it's generally implied that the penalty for murder is universally or near-universally the death penalty
Trials are legally mandated to go on no longer than three days, no matter how complicated they can get. The lab analysis for a poison isn't completed in three days? You can't use it in the poisoning trial. Your witness can't be tracked down on the last day? We go to the verdict without their testimony.
Everyone is assumed guilty until proven innocent. The defense attorney has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt, within 3 days, that their client could not possibly be guilty, or they're gonna get a GUILTY verdict
In practical terms, this means that if your client is innocent, you have to not only prove that but usually find the actual killer within the three days to show it's a different person. This isn't officially mandated as part of the defense's duties but in pretty much every case it's what Phoenix has to do to exonerate his client, even if he's otherwise proven the killer couldn't be (or is extremely unlikely to be) his client.
Both sides can just show up to the courtroom with new evidence and demand it's accepted as evidence during the trial. There's no verification process for this and no requirement that the other side has access to it pre-trial. You can show up with a letter in hand and halfway through the trial be like "this letter was found in the victim's apartment!" and it becomes part of the case then and there.
There are no restrictions on where or how you can find evidence. You, a defense attorney who doesn't work for the police force and has no equivalent of warrant law, can break into a witness' house and steal evidence from his personal safe to show in court the next day. This is not a crime apparently.
It's normal and accepted that the prosecution will coach all witnesses, usually telling them to lie. It's a huge advantage when you get to interrogate a witness who the prosecution hasn't been able to tell what lies to tell yet. They never face repercussions for this.
The prosecution will frequently falsify evidence. They receive no punishment for this and are allowed to continue practicing law. Witnesses will regularly lie on the stand; they receive no penalty for this and the rest of their testimony is still considered reliable. It's up to the defense attorney to expose every single lie; if you can't prove a word against your client is a lie, even from the mouth of a known liar, then your client must be guilty of it.
All of your trials are overseen by the same judge and he is comically incompetent. This isn't an oversight of the game he is deliberately written to suck at his job, be easily bullied by the prosecution, generally have very little idea what's going on and issue his verdict based on Vibes.
The lawyers will straight up make bets mid-trial with each other like "if you can't find a problem with this next witness' testimony, you have to admit that you're wasting our time and the verdict will be Guilty". The judge lets them do this. This is considered practicing law. Prosecutors will also physically assault other lawyers and the judge in the courtroom but this is okay because it's funny.
The cops work directly for the prosecuting attorney and the prosecuting attorney will openly threaten police witnesses right there on the stand in front of everyone if the witness isn't saying what the prosecution wants them to.
The level of corruption in the prosecutor's office is just. I couldn't describe it in a bullet point. Prosecutors are straightup hitmen for hire and their weapon of choice is the death penalty.
Phoenix gets physically assaulted and robbed by prosecutors and witnesses a lot more than one would reasonably expect. Someone's always there to beat this poor lawyer unconscious and steal evidence from him. He never makes backup copies. That's not the legal system's fault but dude buy a photocopier for your office.
Guess who's about to get tased and robbed in the police precinct evidence room by a highly respected and successful prosecutor!
Guess who didn't make photocopies of the evidence that's about to get stolen!
Wait wait lemme add some things
Prosecutors have full access to crime scenes and it is implied that they lead the police investigations
Defense attorneys are not supposed to engage with the crime scene or investigate at all! (Hence why phoenix has to worm his way in or break into crime scenes to get evidence)
It is expected that all evidence AND witnesses come from the prosecution. The fact that Phoenix brings in his own evidence and witnesses is *weird*
It is implied that not only do trials have to end in three days, but if a trial lasts that long everyone is very confused and miffed about it. The judge was very torn about having to go a second day on one trial bc he made dinner plans
False evidence is solved by "whoops, I'm sorry, I didn't know" on the side of the prosecution.
False evidence from the defense can result in the attorney being disbarred even if the false evidence came from the prosecution in the first place
There is a game where defense attorneys literally get the same sentence as their defendant (put to death) and thats why [insert place here] has no lawyers anymore
Apparently the defense is allowed to have random citizens join them at the bench as legal advisers. These legal advisers happen to sometimes be an 8 year old
While it does seem that things have actually improved somewhat as a result of reforms, it's worth noting here that at one point Japan quite infamously had a conviction rate of 99.8%. The real life Japanese legal system had been described as being "guilty until proven innocent" and a "hostage justice system". Ace Attorney isn't just a "parody", it is a deliberate political statement, a cutting satire of an infamously broken system.
It's not the only game that portrays the Japanese Justice system that way either. The unfathomable awfulness of the Japanese legal system is also a theme explored in other games like Persona 5 and Ryu Ga Gotoku's Judgement duology (a spinoff of the Yakuza/Like A Dragon series).
today's reason I fucking love the open source community: Ageless Linux, a brand new Debian-based operating system specifically designed to break the law by giving children access to computers that explicitly refuse to track their age.
reblog this post to help a child break the law
oh goddamn this whole page goes so hard actually, please go read it. what an impressive, visceral takedown of this dumb law
I've been a prince for a while, but I haven't been a princess yet....
