Happy Holidays!

Enjoy this merry day with quite the miraculous gift: A brand new theme!

I've been working on it for weeks lmao. (Wish I could've been done with it and put it up for all you a lot sooner but health issues ya know. I did it as quick as I could despite it all.) Honestly, if you can, check out the new desktop theme. It's very interesting indeed. 👀

Other than that, there will be, as always, a daily post for you to all get your daily BioShock content.

Thank you all for sticking around despite past stumbles and long absent waits. You guys are the best gift that I could ever wish for. Truly, I am eternally grateful. Have a very Merry Christmas (or just a happy holiday if you don't celebrate it).

the dehumanisation themes in general are churning in my head. obv there are some problems especially with the analogy to addiction, but in the larger societal context i find it very interesting. poverty and lack of social welfare forces you to dehumanise yourself. war dehumanises you. this goes double if you include big daddies and little sisters. war dehumanises those who fight it and it dehumanises the next generation who will only ever know to be instrumentalised in a larger scheme.

the way you are told from the beginning that the excessive use of plasmids is what turns people into splicers, and how you go on to massacre them as the standard enemy throughout the entire game. hammering home the point that you're not supposed to see them as people anymore. and at the same time you take plasmid after plasmid yourself because there simply is no other way to make it through rapture. when you lose control over them in the later chapters, how do you not think about how your are on your best way to become one of them? when you turn yourself into a big daddy, a process that is then and there described as an irreversible loss of all personhood, how do you not wonder if you'll ever be able to leave it behind even if the fight is won?

i think the implications are very clear and intentional by the end and i was disappointed that it wasn't brought up or adressed. i mean, just through those heavy implications i think it has its presence in the end. jack and the little sisters are the next generation, forever changed and (metaphorically) disfigured by someone else's war, decide to reach out to one another, to show compassion for each others despite everything that's been modelled for them. i just wish the dehumanisation jack is for forced through during the events of the game itself was addressed more. but then again, bioshock's ending being weak is far from being a groundbreaking take.

#bioshock #jack ryan #splicer #little sister #meta #honestly really liking this take #never heard it before but it makes so much sense #even if it wasn't originally intended imma still headcanon it as true in my book

And the Lamb ate the shepherd,

with one fell swoop

the songbird snatched the Lamb

and in a soaring number

did fly into heaven

Ad infinitum

I love my friends. I just sent one of them a screenshot of this molecule in Bioshock 2 and she replied in 30 seconds to help me identify it.

So apparently this is toluene and it isn't at all involved with recombinant sequences of the DNA (that's what is written next to it on the blackboard). It doesn't even seem to have much biological activity to begin with. Some articles I'm reading on it seem to say that as a solvant it can induce the formation of cancers tho. I guess the devs just wanted a cool looking molecule
