I keep thinking about The Coffin of Andy and Leyley but I don't want to discuss it with anyone because I fear that they're going to think I support incest or something.
I like the game, I think it's charming, and it dives into a lot of taboo topics. I think if anything, the incest may be a part of the "horror" too, showing how far the main characters codependent relationship has come.
But at the same time, I feel like the creator may be into incest themselves. I can't be 100% sure, but the way it's drawn in game (plus the official art I've seen outside of the game) gives me the impression that they're kind of into it.
Is anyone in the same boat as me? I really don't know my opinion of this game yet, especially since it's not completely finished, but I feel like there's so much controversy it's hard to discuss it normally. Most people who know that there's incest in it write it off entirely and refuse to look deeper, and then there's another group that absolutely love it for the incest and proudly embrace it. I feel like im in the middle, and I haven't seen a lot of posts of people who have a similar opinion. idk

I don't think there's a greater showcase of how far artists have fallen from the societal ladder than watching everyone embrace AI generated nonsense the moment it gets pushed forward, even in places where posting your art is, I don’t know, the entire point.

ah, great, a video that will surely be "EWWWW INCEST PLOT POINT YUCKYYYYY" for at least half the run time, probably with overlays of hella sus other media while she's in the middle of an incestuous abuse scandal

In part 1 of my GamerGate book interview with game developer Nick "PixelMetal" Robanik, we talked about a lot of things! We discussed his gamedev work, his thoughts on myriad GG-related topics, his SavePoint panel at @sxsw with Perry Jones and Lynn Walsh, and more! Nick says SXSW tried to silence him at SavePoint initially. We also discussed Kwame Opam's questionable coverage of the panel, the Sweet Baby Inc controversy, perhaps Kabrutus's first major error in attacking Yiyi Zhang for seemingly no reason, and the harassment Brianna Wu says she received.
Plus the Honey Badger Brigade (including my interview with Hannah Wallen and Brian Martinez's interview with me), the Foodshops and Vaush's "lawley" controversy, Hasan Piker's Coca-Cola controversy, games journalism, artistic freedom, his political views, Trump, my January 6th debate debate with MrShikaki (moderated by LtSarge & That Fake Guy Dan), @petercoffin changing his mind on GamerGate, and more! Check out the great interview!

mfw 99% of the fandom is proshippers
i have been hyperfixating on the coffin of andy and leyley for quite a while. the story is great, and i'm looking forward the the full game being released.
HOWEVER
the fandom is one of the most disturbing i have seen yet. keep in mind, the game does contain murder, dismemberment, and cannibalism. all of these topics are extremely fucked up in their own ways, but the proshippers use this to their advantage. ' so you're condoning fictional cannibalism but not fictional consented ince$t? ' yes, yes i am, because these characters have never seen each other in a romantic light. also, i think you're forgetting this, ince$t is ILLEGAL and GROSS. and while, unfortunately, the protagonists did have to murder to escape, ince$t was NEVER NEEDED.
another point i have to address here is the so-called 'proof' of their relationship that the shippers go feral over. notice that, in all of them, they are JOKING. nothing remotely romantic has ever occurred between the siblings. even when andrew said them dying together would be 'romantic' he specified that he meant the other definition of romantic.
closing thoughts.
incest bad
stop the proshipping
and thank you.
for reading this sillygoofy man write
now if you excuse me, i'm going to listen to peaky peaky on repeat.

ok i REAAAAAALLY need to make a dedicated sideblog for this shit now i realize bc this game is gonna fucking fully get me dragged into this discourse so i'm gonna make an active effort to stop putting these on main, but i can't see myself saying more beyond this in general but ANYWAAAAYS
so i recently made this post about the cognitive dissonance regarding this game and people using fucking CALL OF DUTY a game that is more or less a recruitment drive to make the US military look cool and try to get kids to join up and that GTA's wanted system is actually NOT rewarding you or something to try to play a dick measuring contest with coffin but this interaction really interested me and i wanna talk about it bc i just blocked them after they refused to answer the last question but this is a very specific kind of gaslighting tactic i'm very familiar with from my own days as an anti
i think p much all of us who are used to engaging with this discourse are used to like y'know, being called awful horrible disgusting things. this is not the first time some fucking weird random person came onto my content asking me if i was a kid didler or wanted to fuck my brother. ain't gonna be anywhere near the last time either folks, but i and Lord God knows that's not the case so i don't care what a rando on the internet says but here's the thing: you can't "win" this, but they want to win it. no matter what you say you are the absolute worst kind of dreg of society that should be shot behind a barn and no amount of anything would work. if i actually pulled a list of sourced all that would have happened was they would've doubled down on calling me an inc*s*ious p*d* that I would be willing to use articles probably written by "people like me." because YOU don't care about "winning" this argument, you just wanna get the facts out on your end. it's a catch-22 folks, nothing you say will get you out of it!
i started by calling them a karen, they immediately escalated the living FUCK out of it and tried to trap me in this catch-22 to keep feeling morally superior to me. me saying i don't have such desires and never will isn't enough because i like this game. nothing but me renouncing it will change it.
but here's the thing about antis- they fucking HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE it when you turn it on them. look at the difference. look at the difference between they were the one throwing the catch-22 at me vs. the other way around. what about you? you just came onto my post to harass me, so i'll say it back. how about you? are you just accusing me of these horrible things because you are projecting your thoughts on me? you told me to get a therapist: so maybe you're the one that needs help if so!
violent video games must encourage violence, riiiiight? and you support it because it's violent. Game of Thrones had in*e*t in it so everyone who likes it also is the same. and Demon Slayer, where the pfp is from is violent, so you support it. the main protag's little sister also gets a superpowered form where she gets physically older and a tits out kinda look. so clearly YOU want to see your sister in the same way, right?
and it went as expected. you can see the tone going from smug jerking off with a shit-eating grin to just annoyed while smelling their own farts like it's a rose. and the moment i started doing the same uh i got NO fucking answers and they stormed off. i waited half an hour for a response before blocking them
so why am i typing up this walltext? because i used to be an anti. i fucking guarantee you i would've called everyone who liked this game [insert horrible things] like 7-9 years ago. so let me tell you, you know what pisses off antis more than anything? more than ANYTHING? turning this catch-22 bullshit on them. this is the only way you can end this miserable conversation without blocking them.
it's all one-sided bullshit and the moment you turn it on an anti it IMMEDIATLY shuts it down. this fucker KNEW the answer and you know it. so i wanted to share that, if you ever struggle with this shit: well the best thing you can do is block them and to give a fuck about winning their imaginary argument, but this is the only way to make the headache end otherwise. just throw the catch-22 right back and that's the end. thanks for reading!

[ID: an unfinished full body drawing of an original character, next to an older, thigh-up drawing of him. in the full body, she stands with a hand on her hip, the other undrawn with an arrow reading "book with finger holding open" to describe what would be there. in the old drawing, he leans on a waist-height surface, her other hand raised flipping off someone unseen. he smiles, looking off to the side, in both.
Appearance: she has peach-tone skin, grey hair with black roots and tips, facial moles, and a bat silhouette across her forehead where eyebrows would be. The hair is styled back-combed, spiky and big, with spiky Lydia-like bangs and a long straight mullet pulled forward over both shoulders. He has gothic eye make-up and smudged black lipstick, wearing a single black coffin earring, nipple piercings, and dimple piercings.
She wears a ripped black mesh shirt under a corset showing ribs, a spine, and pelvic bone about where they would be on his body, and a pleated maroon mini skirt. Under the skirt, he wears a longer mesh skirt and maroon fishnets. Lastly, her shoes are stiletto ankle boots with 2 buckles and laces tied in nooses. end ID]
YIPPEE for OC-tober! This is my favorite OC of mine, Drax (also Laura, Dracula, or full name Draculaura)! This fag was my he/she bigender awakening (he's a little aged, but I still absolutely adore her 🫀🫀)
She was made for a paranormal research team, along with OCs made by a group of friends (inc. @bensiskos and @littlegreenfags), that researched things like ghosts, aliens, bigfoot, and mothman! Together, they try to study these canonical phenomenon and prove their existence to a skeptical public, all while living in a van together so they can travel the continent for said research!
He's like the asshole older brother from a kid's show and a protective older sister at the same time. Never getting enough sleep, she's also more of a nerd than her appearance would let on. When they're stopped in a town, the library is his favorite place to be, doing tons of research in her free time and reading gothic literature and horror pulp fiction. Other things he likes:
parking lots at night
gas stations
5-hour energy
being taller than other people, esp guys that look down on his swagful femme self (can't look down if ur forced to look up)
punk, goth rock, death metal, and any loud music made by nobodies in a garage.
collecting CDs from random underground shows
working audio recording equipment (did tech for high school theatre and is responsible for working the research recording equipment presently)
getting morally grey with it
his friends <3
FEEL FREE to send me asks about about Laura, or any of the OCs i post about this month!!!!! i love him so much. i hope u like him too :-)

The Poison of Tradition
by Eviepuss
Tommy turned from eight to nine and nine to ten and all the way to sixteen. And the requests to spend time together never stopped, even as they tried to at least give their youngest brother an honourable chance to strike before they went to cut him down. The murder attempts were all his and Wilbur’s. They even made sure to confirm it with each other.
It wasn’t an act. Tommy was just the desperate younger brother he acted like. He was weak.
In another life, Techno thought he might’ve felt some kind of pity for him. But in this life, as he made eye contact with Wilbur above the flag draped coffin that held the former king, he knew this wasn’t that life.
 OR: Only one can be king and only one can live. Techno has never had a problem with that and neither had Wilbur. Tommy however? He's a different story. Maybe it's time to finally weed out the weak.
Words: 2832, Chapters: 1/1, Language: English
Fandoms: Dream SMP, Minecraft (Video Game), Video Blogging RPF
Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply

Guitar String of Fate
Tumblr media Tumblr media
MASTERLIST
Pairing: Eddie Munson x Fem!Reader
Word Count: 2,372 (plus social media posts)
Warning: Angst (just the lyrics to the songs on the album, everything else is fluffy!), Game of Thrones critique and reference to its violent content (it makes sense later)
Summary: When the band Daughters of Lilith tour bus breaks down in the middle of Indiana, they are left stranded for a few hours waiting for help. Y/N (also known by Echo) sees a bar in the distance with a giant LIVE MUSIC sign in bright neon lights, she tells the girls they might as well find some entertainment while they wait. The local favorite Corroded Coffin is playing, and when she locks eyes with the guitar player for the first time, Y/N can’t help but feel the electricity in the air. Will this be a missed connection? Or will the strings of fate bring them together again?
Author’s Note: Here it is! The first chapter of Guitar String of Fate! Hope you guys enjoy it! Let me know if you want to be tagged in future updates!
Part I
Tumblr media
[Official transcripts from the interview with Daughters of Lilith written by Frederick Benson, MTV News. Copyright © 2020 Viacomm International Inc. - All Rights Reserved]
This is Fred Benson coming to you live from Indianapolis! Fresh off the Antiquity tour, we have with us the members of Daughters of Lilith!
Echo: Lovely to be here!
Eden: Hey guys!
Chrissy: Hey everyone!
Barb: Hello!
Vickie: Hey!
For those who aren't in the know, Daughters of Lilith is an all girl rock band from Los Angeles, California. They took the music world by storm back in 2019 with their debut album "Into The Gorgon's Eyes." In an era where rock music was thought to be dead and buried, these ladies have brought it back to the land of the living! With millions of streams and stadiums across the country sold out, Daughters of Lilith has certainly rocked our worlds. Now tell us, how does it feel to finish up with your first continental tour?
Echo: It's definitely bittersweet. Everything has been amazing so far, all of our fans coming out to see us is absolutely surreal.
Vickie: Oh definitely, sometimes I feel like I'm going to wake up and this all thing was just a dream my brain made up.
Eden: I'm still shocked people actually like our sh*t. When we first formed the band we had no clue it would blow up like this.
Chrissy: It's crazy, because like, going on stage used to be so scary for me. Now it's like second nature! I loved seeing everyone's signs in the audience and watching them sing along to our music. It's so cool!
Barb: It feels good to be back in my home state of Indiana, but I can't wait to get back to LA for some much needed rest for sure.
Some R&R is definitely deserved, especially with the new album coming out in a few weeks. "A Mausoleum Knight's Dream" is heavily anticipated, when you guys dropped the title it went viral on social media. Can you tell us a bit about it?
Eden: It's definitely a different vibe from our first album, Y/N wrote most of the lyrics herself. I remember we were sitting in our apartment and I woke up to use the bathroom. I found her in the kitchen scribbling in her notebook like a woman possessed.
[Edit: Y/N L/N goes by the stage name Echo. Her band mates refer to her by her legal name in interviews]
Chrissy: She wrote the entire thing in like 2 days! It was insane! I don't think she slept!
Echo: I wasn't that bad...
Barb: You were. You were chugging espresso like it was water. Eden had to throw you in bed to get a couple hours of sleep and you snuck out the window!
Echo: I was in the groove!
Vickie: That just proves our point!
A whole album in two days! That's certainly something!
Echo: They're being dramatic. It was more like a week, but yea it was a lot. I got the idea for the album when we went to go see Shakespeare in the park. I get a lot of my inspiration for music from literature.
Yes of course. "Into The Gorgon's Eyes" was inspired from the Greek myth, right?
Eden: Yea and other myths and stories as well. Vickie and Y/N are big Greek mythology nerds.
Vickie: I'm a big Percy Jackson fan! But that wasn't the only reason why we chose the theme.
Echo: I think the story of Medusa is unfortunately something a lot of people can relate to. A lot of greek tragedies are. I wrote 'Wool Stained Red' after watching Game of Thrones actually. As much as I loved the show, the graphic displays of violence were absolutely horrific. It's insane how normalized violence is in media. How it's trivialized for plot development. We see it with Medusa, she was a victim of a crime and she became the villain, a monster. We sort of ran with the idea that we should show the other perspective. History, literature, myth, they're often written by the winners. We wanted to tell the story of the side characters, the ones who are cast aside to push the hero's narrative.
'Wool Stained Red' is actually one of my favorites on the album. Whenever I listen to the opening verse and chorus it always gives me goosebumps.
[Edit: 'Wool Stained Red' is the third song on the album.
Verse 1: They tell us as little girls / To watch for the wolf in sheep's clothes / Don't frolic, don't go, don't stray / Beasts lurk in the shadows / I thought I was safe inside, the door was locked up tight / You came like a ghost in the night, and now I'm the ghost inside
Chorus: The shroud that drapes around me is not as clean as it should be / I walked alongside the virgo / I tried to say no (tried to say no) / This stain won't go away, no matter how hard I try / You've marked my soul forever, until the day I die]
Barb: Y/N wrote the opening and Eden did the chorus. At the time, they were fighting over the notebook to get all of their ideas out.
Eden: We wouldn't have to argue over it if she didn't insist on using the same notebook for music...
Echo: It's my lucky charm! I bought ten of them from the same store for when we eventually run out of pages. I swear it's like magic, I can't write in anything else.
Chrissy: It's so cute actually, she takes care of that thing like it's her baby.
Vickie: She doesn't go anywhere without it.
Is that where you wrote A Mausoleum Knight's Dream?
Echo: Sure is. I'm excited to see what people think about it, I don't know if I can wait two weeks for it to drop. Patience is certainly not my virtue.
You're certainly not alone with that, fans have been buzzing for months for its release. Especially after the overwhelming success of the Antiquity Tour. Are you guys going to do another one for this album?
Vickie: We would love to! If the album does well I'm sure another tour is on the horizon.
So what's next for you ladies? Gonna spend some time in Indiana before heading back to LA?
Barb: I wish we could, but we have events planned in LA for the new album release. It would be nice to spend some time in my hometown for a bit, but we might come back the next time we have downtime.
Echo: I was really bummed out about that. I really wanted to see Hawkins.
Hawkins, Indiana?
Chrissy: Yea! Barb, Vickie, and I are from there! Funny enough, we didn't really know each other well until we all met again in LA.
Vickie: We actually all went to the same high school, but Hawkins High is pretty big and we didn't run in the same circles back then.
Barb: Chrissy was a cheerleader, Vickie was in band, and I was more of a home body. It's insane to think about where I am today. If you would have told 16 year old Barbara Holland she'd be in a rock band with millions of fans, she would have said you were insane. I only had one best friend in high school, her name's Nancy. We're still really close.
I'm actually an alumna of Hawkins High funny enough.
Barb: I knew I recognized you! You were on the paper with Nance right?
I was! I can't believe you recognized me! It's good to see you again.
Barb: It's good to see you again too, Freddie!
Eden: I'm feeling very left out right now.
Echo: I guess we're not cool enough to be a part of the Hawkins crew Edy.
Vickie: Oh you two are so dramatic.
Chrissy: We'll all plan a vacay soon! You guys can see where we grew up!
Echo: Sounds good Chris, I'd love to see it.
As much as I love this trip down memory lane, we unfortunately have to wrap up this interview. Any final words to your fans in Indiana?
Echo: You guys were kick ass last night! Can't wait to come back!
Eden: Till next time Indiana.
Chrissy: Bye everyone! We love you guys so much, thanks for coming out!
Vickie: Hope you guys like the new album!
Barb: Thank you Indianapolis, and shout out to Hawkins!
That's everything folks! This was Daughters of Lilith with you live in Indianapolis! A Mausoleum Knight's Dream drops in 2 weeks, so stay tuned for that!

Eddie was procrastinating, but it wasn't his fault. Really. It was Robin's. If she never suggested new music to him he would have actually made progress with Corroded Coffin's new material. How was he supposed to resist the temptation of an album called Into The Gorgon's Eyes? It was like a siren's call. The link to the album Robin had sent just begging to be played. Eddie knew Gareth would give him shit for listening to another band's music instead writing for his own, but when he did he care about Gareth's opinion anyway? He thinks Whitesnake is one of the best bands to come out of the 80s. Clearly his opinion was wrong.
Robin had told him that the best way to listen to the album was from beginning to end. That once he started it, he had to finish it. He had a few hours before he had to leave for The Hideout, so he decided to put it on early instead of playing it in his van. It was the best decision he made in weeks.
Daughters of Lilith's music wasn't like anything he'd listen to before. The melody transported him outside of himself. It sounded as if he was inside of a cave, or some abandoned ruins in an ancient land far away from Hawkins, Indiana. He understood why the lead singer decided to go by Echo, her voice surrounded him on all sides, moving through him like a stark winter's chill.
Robin was right when she said it was a masterpiece. It was haunting. Tragic. Eddie was hooked. The introduction 'My Body Is A Temple' was lighter, bright for a nu metal/goth rock band. All of the instrumentals were acoustic. Echo's voice shined; her high notes reminiscent of the church choir Eddie's mom made him join as a kid. Surrounded by stone, the reverb bouncing off the walls of his mind. Peaceful, angelic. Completely different from the song that followed it.
'Violated' began with an intense guitar rip, so loud it almost deafened him. The drums pounded against his ears like most of the metal music he listened too. What differentiated it from the rest was the soft keys of the piano that broke through the heavy tone. Echo's voice was heartbreaking. As if she was on the brink of tears. Pure agony. That's how most of the Into The Gorgon's Eyes went, a contrast of harmony and discord.
The last song on the album hit him the hardest. There are only a handful of songs that ever made him cry, 'Hemlock' was one of them. It left him feeling raw. Untethered to the space he occupied in his bedroom. Eddie knew he was going to be late for tune up at the Hideout, but he didn't care. When the song finished, he instantly replayed it. The melancholy sounds of Echo's sirens call beginning again.
Your hubris is showing my dear/ It’s what will destroy you /You swallow your pride without fear / Until those lips I once kissed turn blue / I wish I could say I was surprised / But from me, oh you could never hide /
The poison fills your veins / Like the way you filled my head / You tried to mask your pain / Now I sleep alone in our bed / They tell me it’s not your fault, that it’s a disease of the mind / And it’s so easy to say, until they watch the decay of your eyes that were once kind /
Gifts of the Earth can heal / They can send you to your grave / You’re sprinting backwards on life’s old wheel / That’s not how one should behave / And you won’t drag me there with you, despite how hard you tried / I’d rather walk this road alone than become a widow before a bride /
The poison slowly fills your veins / Like the way you filled my head / You tried to mask your pain / Now I sleep alone in our bed / They tell me it’s not your fault, that it’s a disease of the mind / And it’s so easy to say, until they watch the decay of your eyes that were once kind /
I told you I told you / Time and time again / The flowers are not so pretty / When they can bring the kiss of death / Say hello my darling, to the fates of three / When they cut your cord and steal your last breath / You told me I was your Eurydice, that you’d go to Hell and back for me / You’re a lyre, you stole the gold from the windows of my soul to pay Charon’s fee / I told you I told you / It was never if but when /
The poison slowly fills your veins / Like the way you filled my head / You tried to mask your pain / Now I sleep alone in our bed / They tell me it’s not your fault, that it’s a disease of the mind / And it’s so easy to say, until they watch the decay of your eyes that were once kind /
The poison slowly fills your veins / Like the way you filled my head / You tried to mask your pain / Now I sleep alone in our bed / I sleep alone in our bed /I sleep alone in our bed /
When you wake up tomorrow, will it be heaven sent?
