you motherfuckers have no concept of what "land back" or "decolonize" even mean. you're too busy demonizing entire groups of people, terrified, shitting yourselves, that they'll do even half of the horrors to you that you've done to them for decades or centuries. this shit comes off as hella racist for real. you hate arabs so much. you hate first nations people so much. you hate black people so much. even if you sympathize with them, you can't fucking bear the idea of them gaining freedom, independence, autonomy, safety, because you're so, so scared they'll hurt you back and cause chaos in the streets. these same people who just want to rebuild. who just want to go home. who just want to see their families again. who just want food. who just want medical care. who just want dry, warm shelter. you're so focused on the ideas of colonization, of "us vs. them", of one people displacing the other for a state to exist, that you cannot comprehend coexistence, and your only idea of peace is if an entire group of people were just gone and dead.

grow the fuck up. for the love of GOD, grow the fuck up.

#eli talks #rant #i just watched a video shared by someone i'd been following a while denying the genocide occuring in gaza entirely #are you kidding. are you fucking kidding me. #the video was trying to run with the idea that “from the river to the sea” means jewish people will be expelled from the region #no the fuck it does not you stupid motherfucker that's NOT what decolonization is #anyway. land back. decolonize. from the river to the sea. peace and love on planet earth. #stop razing olive trees. stop scorching the earth. stop bombing hospitals and schools. stop destroying the sea. #if i have to see another palestinian child undergo anesthesia-free amputation im going to start being physically fucking violent #if i have to see another mother with blood on her hands wailing and begging for her child to come back im going to start burning shit #one day all the people of palestine will be free. muslims and jews and christians and all and none. #one day all the people of sudan will be free. all the people in the congo will be free. all the peoples in the americas will be free. #and all the other occupied places suffering genocides and ethnic cleansings that the news neglects to mention. theyll be free too.

"Base" project - progress day 1

Started with the water/plumbing facility. I ran into some roadblocks when the foundry items I wanted weren't scanned yet, so I had to survey some volcanic planets. Also I really want the space slideshow, the wiki says it can be found on stations and certain space encounters but I've yet to locate one...

Planning to branch this off into a waste disposal service-thing(?)

#also this is built on a scorched planet turned snow through terraforming #which took a number of vaults to get through #starbound build #starbound

rewatching the scorch trials for reasons and it's actually appalling how this movie had a budget of $61 million and looked and sounded amazing while allegiant, also a YA dystopian movie with a similar plot of the characters travelling through a lifeless desert wasteland, looked like absolute ass with a budget of $110 million

#uhhhh me #that's. TWICE what scorch trials had #and somehow everything was worse. the writing. the vfx. the general story. the pacing. the cinematography. EveryThing #i'm not going to act like the scorch trials is like the bestest movie out there even tho i do love it a lot #but. objectively. just looking with your eyeballs #you would assume it had a higher budget than allegiant. it doesn't #i think this is why i get kind of 🤔 whenever people bring up budget when it comes to judging a movie/show's quality #there are some directors out there who can make do with small budgets. so many sci fi indie movies look good with even less than 61 mil #it comes down to how you use that budget #it was also wild to me discovering that shadow and bone had like $3 mil per episode #that is TINY. tiny compared to other shows that are so much worse with triple or even quadruple the budget #anyway. idk what i was trying to say here #i have a lot of respect for wes ball's directing and i'm looking forward to his planet of the apes movie i guess

Sometimes ur heart is full of. Strong n soft nonbinary. Who’s so in love with the universe

#bags under their eyes from stargazing too long. fishys pls go to sleep I promise they’ll still be there. painted galaxy and nebula and #constellations on the walls of their room on the ship. the bone deep bitterness of working under the fleet with the love of being able to #study and explore the stars they’ve been head over heels for since they first looked up at them #strong bc. Will Not ask for help. would sooner get injured on accident and then continue to try and do it on their own. but also they’ll #absolutely help anyone else any time. sometimes ur blue and strong and. definitely not a mutant. look at all your hair would a fish be this #hairy? probably not u bet. and then u go to ur room with its little window by the bed and u stare wistfully out into the void until you cant #keep awake any longer- regardless of when your alarms are set to #them having patches of burn scars from staying out too late. they spent so many paychecks on an umbrella to watch the sun rise once with #junie and it was scorched beyond repair by the end of it bc it was Not made to be a viewing window but they don’t regret it in the slightest #they’re copying down patterns of constellations on their arms in pen when they land on a planet they’ve not been on before. the view of the #stars might be irrelevant to their job but. how could they not marvel. how could they look at all of that and not find wonder. #I made them to be DEAD but they’re SO full of love that um. they got un killed and uh. just kinda scarred and also traumatized from the #whole event. it’s fine! they’re fine. probably. they’re studying the stars so. they’re happy. they should be happy. they think. #fishys #what if I named them fishys astral. for the sillies #fishys astral #just in casies

Planet Headcanons part. 3

The Deltarune news grabbed me by the throat and kept distracting me from posting here.

Anyways!

Planet Scorch, or Planet Onaclove in JP.

Canon level elements: Planet Scorch is where - in my opinion - the difficulty ramps up. The very start of the level throws meteors at you. You learn the enemies can control fire machines. There are lava rivers. There are bird enemies which will try to throw you into fire pits. Welcome to hell!!

To be fair, you can also control the fire levers, which is fun.

Get fried.

I realized there is something I haven't spoken much about, which I will need to mention here, so some context first.

So in the end of each first levels in the game, there is a 'mini challenge' of sorts, which varies level to level. In Flora, it's a mini boss. In Undertow, it's a set of enemies which are thrown at you by waves (literal waves of enemies lol). Sonata is a mini boss which is a rhythm game, Freon is also a mini boss, so on.

Planet Scorch's? It's a game of Simon Says.

It starts out easy, showing the number order, but you gotta do that two more times. Once with the numbers disappearing later, and once rather fast and no numbers to help you.

As somebody with a shitty memory, this challenge is a pain in the ass to me. It's usually THE part of the game I dread replaying.

The second stage, Under Factory, shows off the planet more industrail setting. Lots of pipies, places to fly or climb.... Oh, there's still plenty of fire, though! And enemies now have access to explosives.

Next up the boss, Adahan!

Probably not what you would think for a fire themed planet, but Adahan is a giant armadillo-like creature.

Every time he takes a hit, he will dig a hole and hide underground before he can strike again. He also has a jet pack of sorts.

Every few hits he will also throw you into this falling segment of sorts, where he is flying. He is definitely a challenge compared to previous bosses so far!

However, once you beat Adahan, he loses his Evil Power and his armor, and we get a plot twist:

Adahan is actually a tiny little armadillo.

He will still try to attack you, but his attacks now don't do any damage.

You also have to hit him even if he is a wittwe baby. Not cool, Ristar.

Headcanons aka don’t play the game expecting to see the shit I’m gonna talk about here:

While a super hot planet already, Scorch especifically uses its machinery to control the heat. When Greedy took over the Valdi System, he also took control of the heat system in Scorch.

Scorch is also the first more technological planet we see (not as advanced as Automaton, but we will get here when he get here!). The most popular technology here, besides using industrial factory things, is steampunk-like. Insdustrial factories tend to be more pricey, while steampunk is more accessible and affordable.

The population of Scorch, if they look like animals, tend to look like mammals or bugs. It's also common for they to wear heat resistant armor and/or to be made of 'metal'. Some of them look shiny because of that.

I also no idea how to describe these thingies from the Factory level, but I imagine they're pretty popular as 'elevators':

A quick stop at a trading post, thank god for air conditioning.

#nms #no man's sky #nms photography #planet: scorched #seriously though how in the world are trading outposts exempt from all that wild weather #its like. wide open. there's not even a futuristic barrier like in the archives. #I think they should make you deal with the horrible weather #not because I like the challenge #but because I would find it funny to simulate the getting out of an air-conditioned car into 5billion degree weather at a gas station #to get your little treat during a long roadtrip #they should let you buy snacks at the trading outposts #our travellers deserve them #penumbra's pics

Here’s the little mole, Adahan!

it's a good thing I'm too occupied with other stuff right now to draw, because my own interpretations of the razias shadow setting / characters are bouncing around in my head and they are definitely above my current skill level.

#cough cough. its scifi. razia is a planet tidally locked in orbit with its star #half is a scorching desert of eternal day and half is a glacial wasteland of eternal night #the equator is perpetually twilight. #yay for tidally locked orbits they r so cool. #wait is razia even the name of the world in the musical..... hm. what IS razias shadow.....

i got a frigate in no man's sky from destroying pirates and got overwhelmed with how much i have to do and then stomped off into a different planet without creating a portal so i could teleport back. i think creating an game with so much possiblity i had an autism meltdown should count for game of the year

#i thought about collecting resources on top of finding a scorched planet and simply died on the spot

Scorching Seven-Planet System Revealed by New Kepler Exoplanet List

A system of seven sweltering planets has been revealed by continued study of data from NASA’s retired Kepler space telescope: Each one is bathed in more radiant heat from their host star per area than any planet in our solar system. Also unlike any of our immediate neighbors, all seven planets in this system, named […] from NASA https://ift.tt/UzgCT3j
