I think my favorite bit i do with customers is when white women are like ‘i dont know what to getttttt’ and i hit them with the ‘you should be bad~ 😈’
Saying ‘you should be bad!!’ In like Gay Voice to a white woman at starbucks has like the same psychological impact as going like ‘who’s a good boy?’ To a dog. It makes them so excited in a really endearing way.
sometimes I forget the average person does not know that the creator of Peni Parker and The Umbrella Academy is the lead singer of the American rock band My Chemical Romance
y’know I don’t really subscribe to the theory that Anders doesn’t truly have anything to fear from Templars in dragon age 2. the argument usually goes something along the lines of “oh well Justice makes Anders invincible” but like. it’s not like we don’t see Templars killing abominations, which is, terminology and sensitivity aside, exactly what Anders is. like that’s kind of their job. there’s nothing in the game to support the idea that Anders can’t be killed — he literally can die in the course of the game. you as the player character can actually physically kill him. very easily.
does Justice make Anders stronger and harder to kill than your average mage? yeah, for sure. would he absolutely come out any time Anders is in danger from Templars? also yes. does that mean that Anders has nothing to fear from them? of course not. he can be overwhelmed and overpowered same as any other abomination
there’s also the tranquility argument which. yeah, we the players know from information given in a later installment that Anders cannot be made tranquil. Anders doesn’t know this. nobody in da2 knows this. there’s no reason for Anders NOT to fear being made tranquil
anyway thank you for coming to my TED talk. next time you see someone talk about how Anders is whiny for no reason or that he can’t be a Templar victim just remember that textually that’s bullshit
Big fan of dissociative solas btw where he’s experiencing reality more like a dream yknow out of touch, out of focus, especially in the beginning of inquisition and then as he begins to care more and more about the people around him and reality starts to actually matter and suddenly now there’s Texture and he’s noticing things an ever-observant fade expert like himself Should have noticed a long time ago yknow like harmless quirks about people, things personal to Them Only and liiikkkeee ugh his arc in inquisition is soooooOOOOOooo
fob’s we didn’t start the fire cover is, like, fine i guess if you’ve been desperately craving for anything set after billy joel’s version, but the fact that it chronically places the usa and uk as the only countries being “newsworthy” and barely acknowledges the existence of news in asia, south america, africa and eastern europe means that it doesn’t hold a candle to the original.
that, and it’s not even in chronological order. like come the fuck on.
