Moth Update: ITS PEAK

im making it my mission to reblog as many images of disco elysium women as possible i played disco elysium without knowing it has many incredible, important, complicated women in it and i need to make sure no one else succumbs to that fate. look at me. i know everyone is posting about those gay detectives but you need to understand. there are women in disco elysium. and they're good.

what they don't tell you is this game has klaasje amandou. it has ruby the instigator. it has cunoesse, cindy the skull, elizabeth beaufort, lilienne carter, acele berger, soona luukanen-kilde, joyce messier, lena, neha, the insulindian phasmid. have i mentioned it has klaasje amandou.

The insulidian phasmid is a girl ???

by virtue of being a parthenogenic species, yep!

you fucking suck at burger

you can have this it is real

no no i actually think it’s super fun that you took that aro/ace character and bent them over backwards to make them gay!!!! we all know being gay is more #progressive than being aro/ace so i’m so glad you freed them from having a storyline unconnected from romance and shipping!!! you go diva!!!

my general opinion on what people should be "allowed" to portray and what topics they should be "allowed" to explore in fiction is that you can make whatever art with whatever themes you want but i'm also allowed to think the way you handled it was tasteless and should've been done differently. my negative opinion on your handling of sensitive topics is the price of admission for publicly showcasing your work. this is not a pro-censorship stance because i am not The Government

i think it is important to recognize the ways in which your favorite thing sucks. i think it keeps u normal

I wish more people got this because some ‘low-empathy’ people are the most compassionate and sympathetic in the universe, and I hate it when that’s taken to mean ‘unfeeling and probably hostile’ when nothing could be further from the truth

Sympathy: that sucks bro empathy: I feel that compassion: want me to send you some puppy and kitten pictures to make you feel better?

Posts like this make me feel so much better. It always seems like society treat responses to others pain as though empathy is the most important kind. I am around 85% compassionate and this post helped me not feel like I am a monster because of that for once.
