*minor spoilers for system collapse*

the new university ship is so funny to me, bc it’s so utterly unconcerned with ARTs hatred of it.

it reminds me a lot of bunny flopping dynamics, where if a rabbit flops down next to a human or another bun it’s cool with, it’s a sign of trust, but if a bun flops down next to another bun its not friends with it’s seen as a fuck you. like not only are you not a threat, but i’m happy and you’re miserable :3

like ART is Seething, shrieking at mb to not speak with Hol and Hol just :3 hi there, do you want some fun facts :3 i could teach you things, that’s what i’m here for :3 can’t imagine why someone wouldn’t just give you information :3 what kind of asshole wouldn’t want you to make a new friend :3

I've finished a whole round of my Uberhood! And you know what? It took me exactly one year and nine month, just as long as the rounds I play pretend to be (I have a mod that mimics a two day = one year ratio and I played three and a half days each household) and I didn't even plan that xD It's kind of frustrating that things go in real time, but somehow it's also fun. How long does it take you, other uberhood players, to finish a round?

I love how we all collectively went feral about Miguel O'Hara. He deserves it. He's hot, handsome, intelligent, morally grey(?), so tall and buffed. HE HAS FANGS. He's perfect.

Re: "HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIT THEY LOOK EVEN COOLER THAN FROM THE FIRST GAME NINTENDO I’LL SELL YOU MY SOUL IF YOU MAKE THEM PLAYABLE" (circa 2017)

Do you still own your soul, OP? genuine concern.

sad to report that i do not :( i was the first guy they put in the metro. yeah i got blended into a fine paste and injected into a squid, it was a whole thing. on the bright side though i got us all a banger soundtrack so it all works out in the end

#tam talks #the splatoongamefiles jumpscare definitely caught me off guard but it's surprisingly nostalgic seeing an old splatoon post pop back up #it's been almost seven years since i first reblogged it...time really does fly when you're having fun

hi tam! i missed getting notifications of your posts :( i hope we get to see more of you. how’s life? what are you playing lately?

🥺🥺🥺 anon!!! this is so nice!!! honestly it's been half-depression and half-me being swallowed up wholesale by fe3h (10/10 can only recommend)

I still play slbp every day!! toshihisa's event story broke me when it dropped and I'm now suffering anew and I didn't even KNOW TO EXPECT IT FROM THIS ES 😩😩😩

ikerev broke my heart and I ragequit ikevamp over christmas (not kidding, it was incredibly stupid but in hindsight I don't regret it and tbh I'm still mad!!)

love365 stopped putting out anything new for my favorite series so I haven't poked my head in there much lately, but so long as voltage keeps slbp coming I will be satisfied!!!

how have YOU been, nonny?? do you have any recs to throw my way?? I'm going to be super over the next few months (gonna be moving and starting a new phd program!!) but I'm not totally opposed to starting sth new 👀

There are many things that I believe CAOS didn't properly think through... However, Part 4's The Uninvited (episode) truly sparks some anger in me for the simple matter of how they portrayed Mrs Anderson's (and possibly Lucy Anderson's?) demise.

Just to start: I don't dislike the idea of The Uninvited as a character/concept. I think that The Uninvited could have been an interesting look at how shallow certain characters are in Greendale and how they value appearances. Or even a further commentary on small-town courtesy politics.

In the case of Mrs Anderson and Lucy, even Mrs Anderson is depicted to be shallow in some way for refusing to let The Uninvited into her home on account of his appeance. It's how it comes across in reviews of the episode, at least. Expanding on the "heartless" narrative of the character.

However, even if Mrs Anderson is being shallow in terms of appearance... I can't blame her in any way or form for turning The Uninvited away. She appears to be a single mother with a young child inside the home. If it were me in her position, appearances aside, I wouldn't think to let a strange man into my home for any reason. Especially one who looked like they could out-muscle or manouver me. Actually... unless there were some truly extenuating circumstances, I wouldn't let a stranger into my home at all. Especially if I had a child inside.

I feel like this matter isn't addressed, as they talk about it in-universe as being a "heartless" action (at least in terms of the Eldritch Mythos.) And I think that's a gross diservice. Mrs Anderson performs a culturally acceptable, smart, self-preserving action.

And is the message being sent "women should let strange men into their homes"?

I know that The Uninvited is an antagonist and I know it's not as if the show-writers are endorsing letting strangers waltz into your home and I understand that horror is the genre...

It just felt like such a discordant event and message, considering the themes that the show claims to project about women's empowerment. It also feeds a bit into the discussion about how the younger women of the show are empowered while the older women of the cast suffer various and continuous traumas and violations of their agency, no matter what #girlboss title they hold.

** This is by no means a comprehensive deep dive or essay. Merely a ramble about the show. If you disagree, that's entirely fine 👍 I've just been thinking about this since P4 came out and as I rewatch or reabsorb material in an attempt to finish some projects, I felt the need to share.

Hey there! I'm looking for a Sims 2 mods: Look, I kinda got a feeling, that my sims never roll interesting wants, or should I call it more like… story driven wants? I don't know how to put it. Never have I had a sim randomly roll a want to get a job aside from their first day as adult or freshly moved in. They barely roll wants to get engaged or married other than being on a date. I wish sims could roll wants to break up with their partners or to have an affair or to quit their job. I'm playing this game for years and I usually have a story line in my mind for every Sim, but especially in the Somerset Legacy, where I don't have such a story line made up and where I try to play solely on a wants base, it tends to get a little bland. There is this one sim (not telling you who) who found their perfect match, they had a great date, the date spent the night and left the next morning, and it's been three days, and they have not rolled a want about that match ever again. And they are a FAMILY Sim?! I was hoping for some more commitment. So, do you guys have recommendations for mods that enhance the wants-system of the game? Or any idea how to trigger more interesting wants? Thank you, XO
