I thought it was a good idea at the time

it’s kind of crazy that “he has a sadness in his eyes you only see in Eastern European gay porn” took off, because the joke is, like, exclusively about people being sexually exploited due to miserable economic conditions.

Unfortunately to the majority of this site Eastern Europe is not actually a real place full of actual human beings, instead a vague concept where everything's grey and miserable and (to the slightly less ignorant) full of violent ethnic tensions, and if you try to explain why that's the popular Western conception of the place and why things got so miserable from the late 80s onward they'll just call you a tankie

Dungeon crawling game set in a domain where the law of the land states that all hoards, troves, sacred relics, cursed rings, talking swords, and other unclaimed treasures are the property of the Crown, with the retrieving party being entitled only to a modest finder's fee, and also it uses XP-for-gold advancement specifically pinned to the percentage of retrieved articles' value the character in question is able to legally claim; much of play thus consists of fabricating legitimate-seeming provenances for retrieved treasures in order to obscure the fact that they were pried out of a dungeon and thereby defraud the King.

(No, this is not "yet another tax fraud premise". Circumventing state ownership of unclaimed hoards is a different thing – more forgery and less math, for one!)

before the joining some girl on tumblr was definitely like you know, raban from wycaro is actually sooo woman-coded and then another girl on tumblr who was probably me was like you people are fucking idiots shut uppppp

I understand that when soulslikes do the whole "the Golden Age was a self-serving lie, the Kingdom has always been as rotten as it is now" thing they mean societally, but sometimes I like to imagine they mean it, like, physically. The Guardian of the Realm has always been a nine foot tall horsedog.

What's wrong with being a nine foot tall horsedog is what I want to know. They can guard the realm as well as anyone.

I'd argue they can guard the realm even better than, for instance, an eight foot tall justdog

“our age of bronze is collapsing” is this beautiful random burst of monty python dialogue amidst the drudgery of nolan’s vision and i think it should win the first-ever oscar for best solitary line

[wringing my hands as i look out my window directly overlooking wall street, watching the sun rise on october 29, 1929] aw fuck it’s the great depression

sorry im absolutely too floored by the fact you just called me 'lizardsex' to give you an answer

This exact phenomenon is why there’s now a hyphen in my url.

[laughing] oh, sorry, no thanks, I’m good, my sexuality is completely devoid of socially mediated fantasies predicated on the ubiquity of power and subjugation, and of symbols in general

when I jerk off I empty my consciousness and reach nirvana and achieve total oblivion free from samsara. Yeah I don’t have any problematic kinks

the only monarchy i support is dynasty scans

if i was in charge of deltarune i would not be as reasonable as Toby is

Hello deltarune fans. Three months from now, Chapter 5 is set to release. At that time, I will check the tags. If there are more M/M ships than F/F, I will press the big red button on my desk labelled "DELETE deltarune". Will you choose your pride? Or your precious game?

the situation with harry potter is kind of unprecedented in some ways imo because it is maybe the largest media franchise in history to be created & owned by a single person who still has direct creative control over it. who is also a billionaire with significant cultural/political influence. like the usual "no ethical consumption under capitalism" type excuses shatter on impact when the bigoted author in question is logging onto twitter every day saying explicitly that when you buy the tim hortons ravenclaw donut she is using your donut money to fund the genocide of trans people. like with big franchises usually there's at least a little more diffusion of responsibility than this
