The Bright Side Of The Dark Side~!

First batch of the new Bookish Fae Adopts !

I understand as a fellow artist why artists lowball themselves, and that is why you the customer hold a duty to help offset this !! Pay your artists for their beautiful labour !!

"so I'm going to deliberately emulate this behavior, and it will be feminist of me to do so" incorrect

That's like saying black people in the 1920's had better representation than asian people because minstrel shows were popular.

miscellaneous hl2vrai freelattas that are less predictive and more “au/speculation that tommy having to do hl2 gman plot stuff has/will make him a bit more morally grey”

as much as tommy never had his own "ai becomes self aware" moment i do think theres something that could be equally as scary as "the npc in the video game is realizing nothing in their world is real and theyre starting to get really mad at You about it" which is "the npc in the video game is aware You are behind gordon freeman, but they dont care, and they will actively try to keep you playing for longer so they can see Their Beloved Gordon Freeman."

YEAYEA ive seen some fanart of that already!! tommy being "God" amuses me very much considering yknow, mike (gman) was the stagehand and bubby's "if there was a god im pretty sure that wasnt in his plan" was like offhandedly referring to mike. its a fun bit to me. tommy whos always watching. tommy the Helper............

i like it when reality and The Game intersect in terrible wretched ways. engineering more scenarios in my head to make it happen

there's thousands of truman shows. you find them on youtube, tiktok, instagram... family and mommy vloggers, sad beige moms and now the trend of neglectful moms showing the "reality" of parenting. all of them using their kids for entertainment. each child their own truman; living a life manufactured by their parents, a camera watching their every moment, broadcasted for the entire world to see.

tbh, i didn't even think about that when i made my post and holy shit you're so fucking right

Let's work towards a kinder, gentler future, instead, okay? Even if you've been working against it until now. I won't give up on that, or on myself, or on you. I love you.
