One of my favorite things about UC Gundam is that it is genuinely extremely weird.

Like, mecha as a genre is already a hard sell to people who aren't already into it or things like it. Gundam as a franchise is even more of a hard sell because it has a 45 year reputation of being a series for model building grognards. And as the final nail in the coffin, the original show being from 1979 has killed any desire to watch it in many, many people that I have recommended it to.

But if you actually get past all the hurdles and watch it, you have a show about a guy in a stupid helmet who is heavily implied to be fucking his twink boyfriend (who he kills), who then promptly develops a homoerotic rivalry with another guy before changing his name to Four Vaginas in the sequel. And he's not even the main character.

True believers will tell you it's peak fiction. And that's me. I'm a true believer.

#Gundam is about war the otherness society puts on autism (see: newtypes) and the experience of coming to know another person intimately #unless we're talking about G Gundam #G Gundam is about rage fury passion how they interact and also humans using martial arts to parry giant robots #Just as god intended

“Cave Johnson here. I’ve received complaints from anonymous employees that our support of the “homosexual lifestyle” is “degenerate” and “irresponsible”. It really got me thinking and I think I found a solution. So good news! We now have 23 vacated positions reserved for members of the LGBT community. Additional good news, we began a new testing initiative on evolutionary degenration with 23 test subjects all ready to go.“

we should globally ban the introduction of more powerful computer hardware for 10-20 years, not as an AI safety thing (though we could frame it as that), but to force programmers to optimize their shit better

so! here's where i make a really funny joke and everyone laughs: ha ha ha that was great! but seriously, this was a great project that a lot of us worked on! i bet you're wondering, gee who worked on it? well i'm glad you ask really easy rhetorical questions that i have the answer to!

Cast: @broadway-june @broadway-equius Choir: @broadway-calliope @broadwayy-kanaya @broadway-john @broadway-sollux (as mituna) @broadway-terezi Art, editing, lyrics: @broadway-equius song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VynZTYtvWFA i'd say equius put blood, sweat, and tears into this, buuuuuuuut i'm pretty sure it was mostly sweat, heh. i'm also like, 99.99% sure this wouldn't have been possible at all without their work! (see the art, editing, lyrics, and singing credit above for evidence, yeah i cite my sources, hehe) without further ado though, please enjoy and on behalf of all of us that worked on this project, thanks for listening! p.s, the lyrics are hiding below!

Ahh, ah ah ah Ahh, ah ah ah Do you think if we try We'll make it out alive More than survive Meaning to life Please take a breath Avoiding death I don’t make promises I know I’ll break Ahh, ah ah ah The future seems so bleak now We need to make it out somehow Would you stay with me even if We don’t know what’s to come As a young lass I always felt destined for lesser things than saving the friends I adore Oh no, here it comes, can’t afford to fail We will prevail! Do the windy thing, Do the windy thing, Dance for me, play the game Do the windy thing, Do the windy thing, Dance for me, it's all the same Heed the mind’s eye and go back where it all went wrong Fix our mistakes, make it better, one more chance! Nev-er stop play-ing (Ahh, ah ah ah) Nev-er stop sing-ing (Ahh, ah ah ah) Now the time has came, to see if we have what it takes to really win Though I’ve tried I know I can’t do this alone, again Do not make the same mistakes as I You'll never come back from certain death You'll lose everyone you’ve ever loved You’ve only forsaken yourself No, don’t go alone No, don’t go alone No, don’t go alone You won’t make it out, No, don’t go alone No, don’t go alone No, don’t go alone You won’t make it out alive

The time has come to step up, I’m really a god Never give up, rise to the occasion, feeling light as air It matters more the ever to make the score I’m more than a breeze, I'm the air in your lungs A reckoning that you’ve earned so you can Take your last Breath Ahh, ah ah ah Ahh, ah ah ah Ahh, ah ah ah Ahh, ah ah ah Now I know that I don’t have To face this all alone, I have you close Now I know that I don’t have To play or sing or dance anymore Ahh, ah ah ah

being a self-taught artist with no formal training is having done art seriously since you were a young teenager and only finding out that you’re supposed to do warm up sketches every time you’re about to work on serious art when you’re fuckin twenty-five

i think i still have that link outfit still around somewhere... don't mind me getting just a little serious for a sec, all jokes aside. this took a bit to make and work on, and it might be personal if you read into it... but hey who has time for that?! i really hope you like it and seriously you should pick up the zelda franchise if you haven't already!! lyrics below! (credit to Marioverehrer for this rendition of lost woods that i love~)

Spirited, To a world, Everything I knew, I’m leaving behind, To play a game.

Play the wind, Trust the Seer, Fight against this feeling That I cannot stop, What’s already here.

Everyone’s telling me I’m meant to lead Just a kid Never did Help a team I’d rather just hang on back and float the Breeze Consorts, Dersites, Monsters, Trolls, Betty Crocker, Doomed Timelines, Oh geez!

Help the Witch, Fund the Knight, If I’m having fun, Why do I feel my Chest growing tight?

Quell the flame Guard the Scratch I cant be overwhelmed If I take a breath, Let myself detach.

Lost my dad, Lost my friends, lost this game If I was meant to lead, am I to blame? We’ll try again, break the Wall, cross the Yard, Can this thing go any faster? Please don’t say I’ve reached all I can be.

Just a kid, (So lost) Hold my Breath I can’t stand any more death Just want to play

Growing up Is hard No one understands what I’m going through Is that true for you?

Maybe I’ll Find myself In outer space If I sing a song

If I sing loud enough, Maybe soon, You’ll sing along.

I’m scared To admit I failed My friends Is there a way To try Again?

did not realize there was a Gollum game out so I was staring at this thumbnail like 'well damn the little dude had his problems but 22 minutes of criticism seems excessive'
