You know how in the game setup menus, there's that thing where you can adjust the voice, music, and effects volume individually?

And while you do that, there's an audio clip running with all three of those components so you can hear how they balance when you're making changes, yeah?

For most of the games, I think that audio is a section of dialog or maybe sometimes a clip of Lani doing a weird voice. Regardless, it's at least something innocuous enough that I've never really paid attention to it. But uhhhhh, NOT SO MUCH in Stay Tuned for Danger. In STFD, this menu gets you a man's voice saying:

Riiight, I forgot! You're celebrating your....70th birthday next month?
Haha you are soooo sassy
But that's what I love about you. Sassy

So that's a thing I wasn't prepared for

I don’t remember doing that with STFD. I remember the opening letter in most of them, but that’s just gold!

Ugh

Doctors that prescribe birth control for acne (or actual reproductive health issues like PCOS or endometriosis) are giving their patients one-size-fits-all bandaid “solutions” rather than actually treating underlying causes.

If your acne/other health issues are actually caused by a hormone imbalance, your doctor needs to determine which hormones are out of balance and by how much, and then customize a solution that works specifically for you.

Not only that, @prolifeproliberty, but acne is technically a form of skin sensitivity.

Suppose there’s something in, say, your moisturizer or makeup (speaking of: clean your phones and brushes!) that is causing your breakouts. Throwing synthetic hormones at skin sensitivity is just going to make it angry.

I dare somebody to ask how I learned that.

birth control sucks

deer-genius-idol-unmatched asked:

You don't believe in love. You believe in people SUPRESSING a part of themselves, not caring how much it ACHES for them to do so. You are objectively wrong, and you do NOT belong on Tumblr. Any arguement you try to come up with against this is pointless.

You are NOT a real Christian.

artist-issues answered:

People “suppress” parts of themselves all the time—for love. If by “suppress,” you mean, “I don’t choose to identify with everything I feel.” I feel like screaming at my mom when she hurts me. But I love her, so I’m not going to say, “gotta be true to myself, gotta live what I feel.” Many people feel like alcohol is what they need and without it, who are they? Many people even feel like depression is “a part of who they are,” so they don’t give it up.

Don’t you understand? What makes something I feel fall under the category of “who I am?” Because not all feelings are good, and most of them aren’t even rooted in reality.

Your feelings lie to you all the time. Right before death after years of dementia or a terminal illness, a person can suddenly become more alert and energized than they’ve been since the start of their illness. They get up, talk, and their feelings tell them that they’re better. And the reality is they’ve never been closer to death, and they’re dead moments later. It’s called “terminal lucidity,” and it’s been happening since humanity’s earliest history. And it’s just one example of your feelings lying about what’s real.

So how can you tell if the things you feel are a part of who you are, or a cancer you need to cut out of yourself because it’s hurting the “real” you? That’s what you’re calling “suppression,” and yeah, it aches, but letting it grow and calling it “part of yourself” is worse.

Figure out what standard you measure “who I am” by.

A Christian measures it by Christ. Who He says you are, not what you feel you are. After all, He calls us to die to ourselves. What did you think that meant?

And a Christian measures everything by what Christ says. That’s how I know “the heart is deceitful and desperately wicked.” It’s how I know you’re right; I don’t belong on tumblr. I don’t belong on this corrupt planet anymore: “If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but you are not of the world, for I have chosen you out of the world; this is why the world hates you.” And it’s how I know what real love is, and it’s Him. He invented it, He gets to define it.

And that’s the point of this argument. To get it out in front of people that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and nobody has a restored relationship with God, nobody can be their “true-selves” unless they die to their old-corrupt self and come to God through Jesus Christ.

So thanks for giving me the opportunity to answer and get that out in front of people again.

Exquisitely put, my friend.

you know you’re a writer when…

  • you spend 30 minutes choosing the perfect synonym for “said” only to change it back to “said.”
  • you google “how long does it take to bleed out” at 3 a.m. and now the FBI is probably watching you.
  • you write one sentence, stare at it, rewrite it 14 times, and somehow end up back at the original version.
  • “this scene is so important” but you have no idea what the scene actually is or why it’s important.
  • you come up with the best story ideas… in the shower… with no way to write them down.
  • your characters feel like real people but also you’re like “who are these guys and what do they want from me?”
  • your brain says “start writing!” but instead you reorganize your desk, reread your notes, and spend two hours naming a side character who shows up once.
  • you’ve cried over your WIP exactly 67 times and will do it again because the pain is the point.
  • you reread something you wrote and think, “wow, did i peak as a writer three months ago?”
  • every writing session begins with the sacred ritual of scrolling social media, opening unnecessary tabs, and procrastinating until panic sets in.
  • you have no idea how long a chapter should be, so you just… vibe.
  • you can’t watch tv or movies without mentally critiquing the plot, dialogue, and pacing.
  • your writing playlist is 98% vibes, 2% songs you’ll actually listen to while writing.
  • you keep a “murder notebook” but swear it’s not suspicious because it’s for your novel (probably).
  • the phrase “just one more draft” is your eternal mantra, even though you’ve rewritten this thing more times than you can count.
