What if Earth is already the property of some galactic empire that hasn’t gotten around to settling us yet because they just purchased us off of another galactic empire a few decades ago?

Video games don’t have to have good graphics to be good:

Video games don’t have to be about combat to be good:

Video games don’t have to be linear to envelop players in their worlds:

Video game bosses don’t have to be difficult to be fun:

Video games don’t have to lack color simply because they are “post-apocalyptic”:

Video games can have lighthearted art design and still carry deeply dark themes:

Rethink video games.

My boyfriend didn’t go to university until he was 28 because he didn’t feel anywhere near ready when he was 18. He graduated with first-class honours, went on to do a Masters, and is now a history teacher. It’s so much more important to do things when you’re able to fully commit to them and do them to the best of your ability than to rush to do them by an imaginary deadline.

also seriously if a character isn’t white, i promise your only descriptive options aren’t food words and varying degrees of tan. it’s okay to say brown. pale brown! light brown! golden brown! medium brown! dark brown! deep brown! so many kinds of brown!

BROWN BROWN BROWN BROWN BROWN

If you successfully cheat on a monitored test then you have passed a test of one skill by using an entirely different skill and I love the sheer stupid creative genius of it because that’s a little like being quizzed on Nuclear Chemistry and only passing because you learned how to read minds

#once i got a 100 on an important book report that i never handed in #i went into the teachers class after school one day after shed forgotten about it #and i was like #hey did you ever grade my report? i left it on that shelf over there after school the other day #and she was like uhhhhh yeah you got 100 #so i said sweet thanks and walked away

guys amazon is just a half-decent storefront at best and not supporting them is so easy.

like ooo look, a cute mug i want

amazon includes the seller

all you have to do is look up the item and the seller and oh look i found it elsewhere for cheaper, no amazon worker had to suffer for my passing whims

i really don't wanna start shit but the whole "neil gaiman is being homophobic thing" has less about "the show isn't queer enough" and more about the fact that he's over on twitter going "it's a love story but they aren't GAY, they're an angel and a demon they can't have sexualities" the point is he won't say that they're gay/queer/lgbt which comes across as pretty sketchy from a cishet white man. the content of the show itself and how queer it was or wasn't is a whole different argument, tbh.

1. He’s Jewish.

2. He wrote a story in mainstream media that boiled down to “transphobia destroys lives” in 1991. Based on the experiences of his trans friends. He’s been steeped in the community longer than his critics have been alive. He gets reasonable benefit of the doubt from me.

3. From what I saw, his argument is that it’s not gay because they aren’t men - they are, in fact, agender celestial beings.

Agender.

His argument is “it’s not gay, it’s another kind of queer,” and people are calling for blood because that’s not good enough.

At best, this is callous disregard for trans and a-spec people. At worst, it’s active bigotry. They’re literally arguing that a-spec folks aren’t queer enough.

4. People have literally said, in the very argument you’re talking about, that it doesn’t count because it isn’t unambiguous and direct enough for the Straights. If you’re gonna say “that’s not actually the problem,” please check and see if it is, in fact, the problem.

Six years before Ellen, Neil Gaiman publicly said trans rights. And now people are trying to paint him as a homophobe for maintaining that position.

Fuck that noise.
