Pinned post finally made lmao tracking the majorasnightmare tag. “Gender is a shell game. What is a man? Whatever a woman isn’t. What is a woman? Whatever a man is not. Tap on it and it’s hollow.

E Begging to feed my family

An employment oppurtunity that we were told was basically in the bag has been rescinded (alongside several other positions applied for at the same spot) because management found out my mother worked there to ensure we had water and electricity

this means our expected cashflow has dried up completely and suddenly, and now our budget is stretched to its breaking point

We have next to no money for food for our household of three, and no way of providing for our 5 cats who were caretaking from our apartment eviction to keep them out of a shelter and off the streets

cashapp:

We literally cannot let them start charging 80 dollars for video games 70 dollars was already outrageous 60 was pushing it. 80 fucking dollars. ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR DAMN MIND. For MARIO?!?!?!?!?

If we don’t buy it, they’ll lower the price, just like the 3DS. They make more money from 2 million people buying it at $60 than 1 million at $80

The biggest misconception in public schools is that literary analysis is about proving you can be right or wrong about a book you read

Literary analysis isn’t about the book

It’s not even about being right

It’s about performing an investigation and presenting your case to the jury

It doesn’t matter if your defendant killed that guy or not. If you can convince the jury he didn’t, you’ve won

And the incredible life skill of spinning bulletproof bullshit out your ass with a handful of facts and a prayer is soooooooo much more valuable than anyone’s ever gonna tell you

If the average tweenager knew that good media analysis meant you could force your English teacher to admit that fuckin- (rolls dice) What’s Eating Gilber Grape is a metaphor for (rolls dice again) Why the crack cocaine epidemic is good actually- we would have far better literacy and critical thinking skills as a nation. And I stand by that

Nintendo is at this point a Prestige Gaming Brand, or at least they like to think they are. There's a reason your grandpa thinks every game is a Nintendo, they've been around fucking forever and have Disney level brand recognition. The Nintendo seal of quality might as well be an Adidas logo. These are not children's games everybody gets to play anymore, these are luxury items that show you have money.

Just don't fucking buy the Switch 2. Give it a year or two, it only has like 3 exclusives anyway. Go play an indie game or emulate something old, it's literally so easy. Don't get caught up in wanting the shiny new thing.

As it was becoming clear the US was headed into trade war territory, I got really interested in farming and the logistics of keeping people fed. I turned that interest into "your cool city needs a food supply," available now!

it's a hack of "i'm sorry did you say street magic" and "Microscope," two gold-standard worldbuilding games. It was polished by Nico MacDougall, who gave me some great advice on how to make this game really align with the themes and ideas I had in the draft.

I've always been a sicko about logistics and agriculture (growing up in the US midwest will do that to you), and I hope this game helps people think about how great a privilege it is to eat.

definitely not The Worst fan content ive seen, but not really a huge fan of people portraying anya as violently enacting revenge against jimmy... i get the whole rape revenge trope is appealing in its own way, and i love when a woman gets unhinged and violent... but i feel like its such a core part of anya that she never punches down...? curlys totally at her mercy, she thinks he's completely responsible for the crash and knows he did nothing to help her with the jimmy situation/enabled jimmy... and yet she feels sick at the sound of curlys suffering, and cant even bear to force the medicine down his throat, presumably the necessary violence and force reminding her of her own assault. its just a little crazy to meeeee. shes not violent shes not cruel shes a victim who should never have been put in the position she was in, and then was forced to experience such a crazy unique hell. i just dont find it very appealing for her specifically as a character!

i think the best portrayal of anya being cruel in any form is that comic where she's looking down at curly and says "now you know how it feels.... im sorry. that was cruel" LIIIIKE. the hate rising up in her only to be quelled by her good nature and belief in humanity?! OKAAAY. OUR WORST MOMENTS DONT MAKE US MONSTERS!!

Apparently collecting empty eggshells, coloring them, filling them with confetti and then cracking them over eachother's heads isn't something everyone does during easter...........we used to find confetti in our hair for days after

Btw they're called "cascarones" and it's a very common Mexican tradition. there's a lot of tutorials online on how to make them if you're curious about it! I have a lot of fond childhood memories of the Egg Wars......and yes it's very messy

YUP.......and the EXTRA evil option: actually wasn't hollowed out at all. just painted and is mixed in with the regular confetti eggs
