"So you're...Angel Dust, was it?" It has been a long time, Lucifer felt very awkward trying to make small talk. He needed to get out of the manor more often. "We didn't get properly acquainted. I wanted to apologize for that, I really should have been more polite."

"That's right, Daddy Morningstar. Angel Dust at your service." A bat of his eyelashes in all too flirty way, perhaps he should reign it in, but oh how he does enjoy flirting. "Don't be sorry for that. You were rockin' Adam's shit and I gotta say - it was pretty hot to watch."

So... I've been curious about people's favorite "no beta we die like (character)" tags in fics- so I've decided to share some I see a lot-
No beta we die like Scar (Hermitcraft)
No beta we die like Ganon (LOZ)
No beta we die like my sanity
Feel free to add on with your own ones!

the new york times is not the hill i wanna die on. i absolutely insist that i will not be dying on this hill. BUT:
about the new york times:
they're fine. seriously. they're doing a good job. their opinion pieces and editorials are often left-leaning which earns criticism of bias, but it's clear they strive for impartiality overall, they offer tons of sources, do rigorous fact-checking, and admit their mistakes. all of that allows you the ability to simply disagree with them, if you want. journalists who cite their sources are not your enemy.
about americans who read the new york times:
lol ok look i hear you. some americans are uninterested in the world overall, and maybe especially in eastern europe. it's a significant enough issue that it's become a stereotype -- can't ID countries on the map, only speak english, won't watch foreign movies, etc. but this is a stereotype, and there really are americans who would love to have a nuanced understanding of eastern europe, who are studying a second language, and watch foreign films (on netflix), etc.
so a headline (i posted a headline earlier) at the nyt about poland that seems comically simplistic to poles may be targeting an audience who indeed doesn't understand all the nuances but would like to. they open up the article and get context, and now they understand the complexities a little better. generally the people attempting to access quality journalism are not the ones who don't gaf about you.
(you can -- and should! -- still criticize where appropriate tho)
also, the guy who wrote that article is andrew higgins. he spent 5 years in moscow covering russia for the nyt, and now he's been in warsaw for a couple of years. he's prob just excited he gets to cover an actual election for once

i have no idea how much older quentin is than peter in 616. he's in his thirties in webspinners and he looks younger in symbiote spider-man but ditko draws him a lot older looking in the 60s comics.

Pst....hey....you guys.....consider: Kusuke's experiment going wrong and making himself imortal.
This would just make him 100% more careless

i think alois would be the kind of person to keep around useless things. overwork pieces of clothing, faded teacups. stuff that just generally has no use to him anymore. he's rich now. he could just replace those things at whim. even if they weren't damaged, maybe he just disliked the pattern. he'd probably buy new stuff all the time, but something in him can't stand to throw it out. poor kid instinct, if you will. he could find a use for it one day. maybe it'll come in handy eventually, and he won't have to buy something else for it. but he still would. he'd probably forget he even had the thing he saved by the time he gets a chance to use it. what if? what if everything suddenly went wrong? what if he lost all of his wealth in some absurd freak incident? that's when it'll all be useful. yeah.

I REALLY am enjoying fallout, but I am very disturbed by how they treat their Indigenous characters.
The Honest Hearts DLC is a prime example. It is a bit uncomfortable having a missionary hang out with "tribals" (of whom are based off of Indigenous people, and in all honesty the way the Fallout series treats them is kind of racist in the fact they seem to pretend Indigenous people don't exist, and depicts tribals as savage and primitive) when in real life, missionaries played a huge role in the genocide (both cultural and literal), assimilation, and colonialization of Indigenous people.
Not to mention Joshua referring to Salt-Upon-Wounds as a "thing" is far too similar to how Indigenous people have been dehumanized in real life. Plus, the whole DLC reeks of white saviorism. I want to enjoy Joshua Graham's character, since he seems very interesting, but the racism in this DLC sullies any potential he has. I don't care that he was in Ceasar's Legion (you can't be forgiven for war crimes, but he was betrayed by them and you can almost understand his rage), I care that Daniel and him are trying to "save" the Sorrows (they don't need to be taught to survive, they can fend for themselves).
Maybe if they were played off as more villainous I'd feel less conflicted, since it'd get rid of the implication that what they are doing is right. I want to like Graham's character, I find him oddly intriguing, but I don't know if I can do so in good conscience.
Also, they used a name of an actual Indigenous tribe in the game for an enemy faction, proving they done no research.
Futhermore, the fact you cannot play as an Indigenous character is odd to me. It is as if the devs don't see them as an actual race of people. You can play as a White character, a Black character or an Asian character, but there is no option for an Indigenous character. Granted, there is no option for a Middle Eastern character either.
I really want to enjoy this series, but this is deeply bothering me. To be completely and brutally honest, I think it is my own white guilt (which I understand helps nobody and is a sign of my own privilege) (that, or it is my almost monomaniacal obsession with being morally correct 24/7 that is causing me to write this post at 2 AM). I know that enjoying a game series isn't inherently immoral or bigoted, as long as I educate myself and learn from the flaws of the media I enjoy, but something inside me is nagging me. I must ask myself, as a person living on colonized land, am I doing a morally dubious thing?
I do want to see what you all think. I have reason to believe I'm being more emotional than rational at the moment, as I usually am when I encounter any problem. Do be civilized, however. I don't want this to get messy, that'd help nobody.

people who've played Elden Ring-- I wanna pirate it, but I won't be able to do the PvP stuff-- and while PvP in Dark Souls 3 drives me INSANE, I love being able to read messages from people and have people invade/summon people.
should I wait to buy Elden Ring when it goes on sale so I can play w/ people, or is it worth it to just pirate it? I'm competent enough to make it through without summoning for bosses and stuff, or at least I was in DS1 & 2, I just like having the option.

Here’s the deal.. I’m posting these again because Stancy is real. I genuinely don’t know why anyone as a director/writer would put the dialogue/ camera shots in the show like they have if it was all for nothing. Steve and Nancy both clearly deeply care for one another. Steve we have seen this since season one. Season 2 ends at the Snowball and you can’t miss when Steve looks into the dance and stares longingly at Nancy. He still feels something for her. In Season 3. The First time Steve and Nancy see each other Nancy is EXTREMELY jealous that he is with Robin. Then As Nancy Shoots at Billy, Steve comes out of Nowhere in the car. Again we get two camera shots. One focused on Steve and One. On Nancy who looks to Steve in shock after being saved. In season 4 Dustin even points out, as does Robin that Nancy is the reason Steve doesn’t take any girl he dates on more then one date. He’s in love with one person…Nancy. Now for Nancy it’s different. This season we see the feelings. She starts the season with Steve in Episode 3. The moment she sees him and the gang she nearly begins to cry. We then see Steve say that Nancy needs someone with her. Robin interjects stating she’ll go. As Robin and Nance leave, Nancy turns back to Steve and gives him a very playful look. Next is key.. Nancy and Robin in the library. Nancy is Annoyed with Robin completely. She lashes out saying “ You’re obviously bored, so why don’t you just call, Steve. I’m sure he’ll come pick you up and I’m not in danger here.” Nancy is jealous. Robin follows her downstairs and states that she and Steve aren’t a thing. From this moment on the scenes with Robin and Nancy are different and lighter. Nancy knows they aren’t together.. relief for her. Not as much tension. It’s the playfulness we see in episode 5 in the creel house with her taking the webs from his hair. Again the Director shows us many looks between the two as they talk, some again season one looks. In Episode 6 “The Dive” First the conversation between Nancy and Robin about “rekindling some old flames that never should have been snuffed out.” The we get to, The Dive. What’s key here and very telling is How Nance reacts to Steve when he she notices him beginning to act like he’s going into the water. The director many times shows us solo shots of just Nancy’s reactions to what Steve says and does. (She almost interjects at one point, but doesn’t) Further when Steve is actually under water, we see the nervousness of Nancy. Robin asks her how much time he’s been underwater and she says about a minute. Again we get more solo shots of Worry and Concern on her face. Don’t know if anyone realized but when Steve surfaces and says he’s found the gate. Nancy’s smile is bigger then ever. She’s also smiling majorly while Steve explains the size of the gate. The directors and writers wanted us to see all of that. In Episode 7 The looks they give each other are clear. When Steve kills the Demobat she immediately checks on him. He makes his joke about being “never better” Nance let’s out a MAJOR sigh of Relief. Next. When she patches him up the longing stares they both share with each other. To me these were both vintage season 1 looks they are giving each other. Then we have the famous conversation that Eddie and Steve Share. Eddie tells Steve to get Nancy back. He’s “never seen such an ambiguous sign of true love” as Nancy diving in after him, not wasting a second. Then Finally again up to the writers and directors. Steve and Nancy are the last two to return to Hawkins. They could have done this in any order, anyone could have gone first or last up the rope but they leave us with Stancy. To end it. It’s clear. They have Major feelings for each other. Gonna be disappointed after all the camera shots, writing and directing going the way it did. Steve and Nancy don’t talk about closure on Barb, they’re future…. Addressing there feelings. Will be majorly disappointing if at the first sight of Jonathan everything is ok and boom basically Volume one didn’t happen for them.. Anyway let me know what you think. Long rant lol
P.S. People don’t look at each other like they do in the gifs and all season and not like each other.. Stancy

*Just finished work for the day and now heading to Starbucks to write a bit and have some tea before I go home. It's been a long day in the office. I am feeling a bit better than I was this morning though. I hope Sam will be free to meet up with me for a bit too. I really miss her*

the whole plot with misty beck is so confusing because she just showed up out of nowhere and then tried to sacrifice quentin. and when did quentin learn to make sentient robots? comic logic is weird.
not to mention the fact that he just named his daughter after his villain persona
i wish she had gotten more character development too.
