the term artificial difficulty needs to be off limits until gamers learn how to describe their feelings and experiences.

i have investigated and studied the depths of my soul and found that i believe this so wholeheartedly its kind of surprising to me. its all artificial because thats how games are made. there can be difficulty applied in ways you dont like but i dont believe theres at all a meaningful difference in artificiality between "boss tracks you this much during this move" and "boss recovers from this move for this long" and "boss has this much health" and even "player runs this fast". its numbers. useless term.

the north of ireland has the second highest rate of femicide in all of europe. it was dubbed one of the most unsafe places to be a woman in western europe. 30 women and girls in the north have been victims of femicide since november 2020. none of the people who set belfast on fire last night have ever gotten violent about that or made threats against the perpetrators. they don't care that the family of the victim of the attack this week (stephen ogilvy) have begged for there to be calm and no riots. they don't care that the brother of natasha mcnally called them out as toxic. they're just taking any opportunity they can to be brazenly racist out in the open. they aren't acting out of ignorance, a lack of education, or empathy for victims; they're simply racist. they are adults making a choice to intimidate, destroy, and target marginalised people. they are endangering black and brown families, setting their homes on fire, and destroying buses and public facilities to terrorise communities. black and brown families with young children are seeking refuge in their white neighbours' houses because they're so terrified. what's happening in belfast is a pogrom by the same people who burn effigies of irish people every july. they don't give a shit about victims, they only want an excuse to surveil and threaten black and brown people, who had nothing to do with the horrific incident, and tar them all with the same brush and claim that they're the dangerous ones. call it what it is: RACISM.

Putting the term "Catholic guilt" on a high shelf where fandom can't reach it until everyone learns how to identify characters who are very very clearly coded as Protestant.

Biggest fuck-up ever is that people have to pay to become doctors

Like unironically we should be subsidising at least 50% of their educations. What do you mean we have a shortage of doctors we should have surplus. What do you mean they’re being overworked they should be treated like royalty, they can fix human bodies

I don’t care if some of them are only doing it for the money. I don’t care if all of them are only doing it for the money. Intentions don’t matter to the stitches in my nana’s leg or the ten billion other lifesaving treatments we all get at a detriment to their finances and mental wellbeing. Entire cities are kept alive by just a couple thousand of them what are we DOINGGGGG

happy fourth of july to the philippines ONLY

happy june 12 to you

if you see criticism of racism within your community as criticism of the community as a whole then you have a racist community. sorry.

liking popular characters and ships but in a way that’s completely different from the majority of fandom is like being in the middle of the ocean and dying of thirst because the water around you is undrinkable

liking unpopular characters and ships but in a way that’s completely different from like the 5 other people who like them is like being in a desert and seeing a mirage in the distance but when you approach it the water disappears

Ugh, it was in mine. It's off now.
