[oluruvar]

Salyalısı olduğum, deli divane boş bulduğum her an oynadığım ilk oyun metin2 idi. İlkokul sonu, ortaokul başı gibiydi galiba. Okuldan gelince önlüğü çıkartmadan bilgisayar başına geçer metin keserdim. Abim oynuyordu, ondan görmüştüm. +9 kaplan ve +9 dolu o zaman için kara sevdamızdı. Genelde demirciye gidip + basarken 5 ya da 6. seviyede patlardık. Abim de bi dolandırıcılık taktiği öğrenmiş. İnsanlara "selamın aleyküm kardeşim" diye bi giriş mesajı yazar ve milletin +9 kaplan ve dolularını çalardı. O zamanlar öğrendim böyle selam verenden bi tık şüphe duymayı, benim hassas olduğum noktaları sömürmek için gelen biri olabileceğini ve abimin de dolandırıcı tipli güvenilmez biri olduğunu. Sonra zaten benim sevgili karakterim muzo'yu bi hile için kullanmış ve banlatmış benden habersiz. Dünyam başıma yıkılmıştı. Saatlerce oynayıp emek verdiğim biricik karakterim, 33 lvl savaşçı muzom... Sonra abim pvp oyna dedi ama asla o tadı alamadım. O karakterin yanmasıyla benim oyun deneyimim de sonlanmış oldu. Gerçi şimdiki aklımla düşününce iyi olmuş gibi geliyor. Aksi takdirde oyunu bırakamayabilirdim ve salak bi oyunla uzuuunnn uzun saatlerimi geçirir, zamanımı harcardım. Karakterim banlanınca ara ara sims ve gta çankırı oynamak dışında oyunlar pek dikkatimi çekmedi ya da benim oynama fırsatım olmadı. Bir de oynayamam gibi geldi açıkçası. Yıllar yıllar sonra abimin bilgisayarında oyunları kurcalar ve dişime göre hiçbir şey bulamazken god of wara denk gelip salyalısı oldum. Ana görevi bitirmekle kalmayıp yan görevlerin de neredeyse hepsini yaptım. İlk kez bir oyunu bitirmiş olmanın verdiği gurur ve o başarma hissi mükemmeldi. Çok hoşuma gitti. Oyun deneyimi pek olmayan biri için müthiş bir oyun bence god of war. Tabii oyun bilen insanın neden bu oyunu dandik bulduğunu da anlarım. Ben oyunun bu kadar keyif verdiğini fark edince oyunları daha fazla kurcalamaya başladım. Biraz zor beğenen biri olduğum için birkaç dakika oynayıp salıyorum genelde oyunları. Elden ring denedim god of wardan sonra ama daha o seviyede olmadığımı hissettim, zorlandım. Bi ara ona fena halde sarıcam ama zamanı var. Şimdiki oyunum ark bi açık dünya oyunu. Benim oyunlarda en çok sevdiğim şey ortamlar, oraları gezmek, bir şeyler keşfetmek, güzel yerler görmek... Ark bu istekler için biçilmiş kaftan. Görselleri muazzam ve kısa vadede keşfedeceğim şeyler bitecek gibi durmuyor. Sürekli şunu şöyle yaparım, bunu böyle yaparım diye hayaller kurdurabiliyor. Düşünmek bile heyecanlandırıyor beni. Sadece metin2de abimin nasıl insanların hayatlarını kararttığını anlatacaktım ama konu nerelere geldi görüyor musun? Neyse ben ark övmeye başlarsam bu post bitmez. Öbdüm by <3

One thing I do like about the Overwatch lore is how it sounds so much like an old, disbanded MMO guild. Like yeah sometimes your guild's top DPS player becomes a ruthless, lone-wolf assassin in the PvP zones (Widowmaker). Sometimes that young kid who the guild basically adopted tries to bring it back (Winston). Some people cherish the guild memories (Reinhardt) and some run away from them (Ana).

Speaking from experience, this really is what post-guild life looks like. Kaplan did a good job visualizing it.

bişey sormak istiyorum herkesin bir kitaptan bahsettiğini fark ettim animeyi izleyip mangayı okudum ama bir kitap hatırlamıyorum

uzun zaman önce izleyip/okuduğum için mi yoksa başka bir yan seriden mi bu kitap?

Nedense bsd izleyenlerin çoğu kitabı bilmiyor ama animenin ana konusu bu aslında. Yeni sezonda mutlaka daha öne çıkacaktır fakat kısaca kitap, üzerine yazılan her şeyi gerçekleştirebilen bir ürün. Ancak yazılanların sebep sonuç ilişkisi içerisinde olması gerekiyor.

2. Sezonda Lonca'nın Yokohama"ya gelme sebebi ölen kızını diriltmek ve karısının akıl sağlığını korumak için kitabı bulmak istemesiydi. Atsushi'nin yeteneği önemli çünkü kitaba giden yolda rehber kaplan.

Stoops Issue 12 (DIY Issue) is now available!

So I've been doing this magazine for 9 years now and you would think I would have streamlined the process for releases, but being that it is still mostly a one person operation over here with no real industry support or ad dollars, I'm still just doing my best. Each issue hinges on whatever time and money I have to throw into it with hopes of breaking even but mostly coming to terms with the reality that I am spending what others may spend on mortgages, or cars, or alcoholism to put out a skateboarding publication for my own sanity, grasping for a sense of purpose, and for the few of you actually appreciate it. One day I will come to my senses and give it up, but for now, it is somehow still moving along with no drop in quality. And while I know this seems like a pity party of one over here, it is really my segue into the theme of the new issue. Issue 12 has a Do-It-Yourself theme where we explore the concept of creating spots out of nothing. Just as I am creating a magazine with my own resources, accepting the loss of funds to produce something that brings me joy, skateboarders have been doing this for years. Every spot built by skaters using their own hard earned money has no monetary pay off but brings them joy, as well as netting some happiness for others who get to enjoy using the product of that labor. This issue explores the DIY mentality in skateboarding and its importance.

You can order it here!

Reblogged with the actual winners.

The only big surprise was Jamie Lee Curtis, but I guess they just had to give it to a white chick instead of Angela Bassett who has been shut out of a win for like, 30 years.

And Jimmy Kimmel can keep his day job. The Will Smith jokes were tasteless and too much tonight underlined all the racist/anti-Black sentiment out there (wasn't helped by that Entertainment Weekly set of anonymous interviews this past week).

But EEAAO making a clean sweep? Outstanding.

#oscar predictions #white hollywood always pulls some bs #like totally shutting out The Woman King #that is some serious BS #I think Stephanie Hsu absolutely kills it #but Angela Bassett deserves her flowers #Viola Davis should have been up there too #not that Andrea whatshername all those white actresses went to bat for #but watch them divvy out the awards so EEAAO gets the top spot #trivial pursuits

Soldier 76 and Ana, best friends

Alright, finally putting together a real post on this.

So, I've mentioned before that I see Jack and Ana as having a relationship like that of siblings. (For the record, Jeff Kaplan specifically referred to Jack's relationship with Ana as 'familial')

Specifically, though, I think of Ana as like Jack's big sister, while Jack is the little brother. Now, I know 'found family' has been twisted in the past, but hear me out.

To start, Jack is the youngest member of the original Strike Team. His age is technically unconfirmed, but the age range that's been given puts him as the youngest by at least a few years. Ana, meanwhile, is several years older than him.

It's not only their age, though; it's often been emphasized that Jack was the most optimistic and hopeful of the original Strike Team. He's always the one bringing the others together, making speeches about hope and similar things, and going on more 'daring' missions.

Before the 'sees teammate die' lines got taken out, this was what Ana said if the Jack on her team died:

Ana has often wanted to protect others. This is expressed most literally when she puts on the Bastet mask:

But also, the action of going on this whole vigilante journey with Jack at all seems to be at least partially motivated by the desire to keep Jack safe, or at least alive. She doesn't seem as convinced as Jack that the whole 'Reaper crusade' is going to be effective. But she goes along anyway - I think part of it is motivated by her desire to help others and to make up for some of the damage Overwatch caused, but it's pretty obvious to me that protecting Jack is a big part of it.

I don't think Ana is only interested in protecting Jack physically, though. Like many older siblings, I think Ana has a desire to protect Jack's more hopeful worldview. This always stood out to me:

You can tell that she's sad that he's been so hurt.

You see her relief at any sign of Jack still being happy:

And of course, the way she describes him in terms of being childish:

I don't think Ana looks down on Jack or anything; they clearly think of each other as equals, which is why I say 'sister' rather than 'mother'. She lets him make his own decisions (even if she criticizes him when they're dumb ones). But wanting to protect his innocence and his positive worldview, along with wanting to protect him physically, while still being able to joke around with him and feel comfortable...it does feel like an older sister that's close with her younger brother.

Jack, of course, also cares very deeply about her, and feels safer around her than others. That's why he's willing to show her his more lighthearted personality, and also feels secure leaving his data with her, despite the secrets there:

Ana and Jack will protect each other above all else. For better or worse. Also note that Jack has been mad at himself for not finding her for years:

Even though he clearly did try everything he could:

(Sorry about old cowboy name)

I just love them a whole lot.

Day 2 of Rapp vs Fowler...

Hiya folks! Sorry this took long but I've been tired and had a ton of stuff to do. But here's my court report from Day 2 of Rapp vs Fowler, taking place in the New York Federal courts in downtown Manhattan.

I got to the court building at 9am and unlike my first visit in May for the evidentiary hearing, the security area was crowded. I'm lucky that I got there early. So I give up my electronic devices and headed upstairs the court room 21B.

When I got there, the court door was still locked. Thee was a bunch of people waiting in the 21st floor hallway. As we all waited in the hall, Kevin and Evan got off the elevator. Kevin was wearing his dark suit and looked relaxed. I think they went back on the elevator. After that, Anthony Rapp and his husband Ken showed up (walked right past me) and the court room finally opened. The court officer actually split us up between jurors, press and public. The jurors went in first, the press sat in the middle rows and the public sat in the last row. There were 3 of us in the public group.

As I sat & got situated, Evan's wife Lucinda came in and Evan followed. Then the lawyers came in for all the parties. And Kevin entered. At the plaintiffs table, was Peter Saghir, Robert Steigman, another woman and Anthony Rapp. At the defense table was Jennifer Keller, Chase Scolnick, Kevin and Jay Barron. I was in the back row of the audience and I was surrounded by media people. As we waited for Judge Kaplan to enter, the media people chatted away. I overheard the conversations & I realize how absolutely BANAL these people are. God I was so annoyed. Judge Kaplan finally arrived, the jury was seated in the jury box and the trial started shortly before 10am. Plaintiff goes first, so they called their first witness and that person was Andrew Holtzman.

I'm not going to rehash the testimonies (you can read Ana Chevalier or Inner City Press for that) but I'll tell the gist of the content of their statements. First was Andrew Holtzman and he testified to the alleged sexual assault to him by Kevin in 1981 in an off-broadway theater office. Next was Christopher Denny, a friend of Rapp, who testified that Rapp told him about the alleged assault in the early 1990s. Next was Sean Snow via video deposition. He testified that Rapp told him about the assault in the early 90s also. But Snow's testimony was a real waste of time because he really didn't add anything. In fact, I fell asleep in the middle of the video. Next was Anthony Rapp. Rapp's testimony began with him telling us about his background and career. And then the judge stopped him and called the lunch break. It was about 12:50pm and we had to be back in the court room at 2:05pm.

Anyone can use the court building cafeteria except the jurors. They had lunch elsewhere. I didnt want to go through security again and lunch options in that area are a walk away, so I stayed. Pretty much both sides used the cafeteria. It was so funny to see all these people (Kevin, Rapp, the lawyers) all walk around each other but avoid each other in the cafe. This is one of the times that Kevin walked right next to me. I would've been a total fan girl any other time, but I didn't talk to him because this is a serious time in his life and he's probably under a lot of stress. He was eating lunch with his entire team at a corner of the cafe so I understood this is really business for all of them. Also, I was cognizant at the fact that we were in a court building not a red carpet and HE is the defendant in a case. So its not a fun occasion. I sat near the cash register so I saw everyone come in and out over the lunch break. Rapp and his team also sat somewhere in the cafe (dont know where because they were behind me). One of the cafe workers recognized Chase Scolnick and they had a short chat. So lunch was quiet but there was still much more court room battles ahead.

When we came back from lunch, Kaplan was late again. He came in around 2:35pm and apologized. He explained that there was an emergency application in another case that he needed to be approved (totally understandable as he was one of the few judges available on a Friday before a holiday weekend). So the trial commenced and Rapp re-took the stand. His testimony took his until the end of the day. What I will say about Rapp's testimony is that every juror was attentive when he spoke and it came off very believable. Now it could be truth (I know you all feel differently), however I hope that the jury also understands that Rapp is an actor and can manufacture emotions.

Reasons why blizzard is not in charge of canon

Exhibit A

Look I could give you a list of blizzard continuously releasing stuff that contradicts itself (like Jack being surprised Ana is alive in the Old Soldiers comic but then saying he knew all along in Bastet or when Fading Glory said Jack joined the military right out of high school with the intentions of a "brief stint" but then telling Lena he joined because of the omnic crisis) or the writing team clearly forgetting the canon ages of their characters (like that picture where everyone's getting awarded medals and Winston and Lena's there but Jack, Ana, and Gabriel look way too young) but nothing fully encapsulates Blizzard not having their shit together than Jeff "fuck the canon" Kaplan.

Jeff does what he wants and says as he pleases. He couldn't keep anyone's ages straight and made it his life goal to contradict any released canon while trying to confirm ships before blizzard revoked access to his Twitter. If not even Michael Chu could keep control of Jeff then what hope did the rest of blizzard hold?

Blizzard has never been in charge of canon and never will be, canon is a nebulous concept to them that they should never get their hands on.

That I why I am in charge of canon now.

merhaba :3

Size Lordlar Ve Varisler için bilgi vermeye geldim

Aslında kitabı okursanız daha iyi olur ve ilginizi çeker ama yine de yazılarınız çok güzel.

Bu kitabımızın ana karakteri Nova.

Nova dünyada en yakın arkadaşı Ayzer ile yaşayan bir genç kız. Onun yaşadığı şehirde 'alfin' adı verilen bir ırkla ilgili efsaneler var. Efsaneye göre Elemantel diye bir diyar vardır ve bu diyarı Lordlar ile Varisler yönetir. Yine efsaneye göre Elemantel den varisler kaçırılmılştır ve alfinler varisler için dünyaya gelecektir.

Burada öncelikle Elemental ile ilgili olarak 4 ayrı krallık vardır. Hava, Ateş, Toprak ve Su. Herkesin burcuna göre bir krallığı vardır ve Krallığına göre güçlere sahiptirler.

Lordlar ve varisler ölümsüzlerdir ve en güçlü sihir gücüne sahip olan onlardır. Eğer birisi bir Lordu ya da varisi öldürmek isterse o da ölür.

Nova Elementale geldikten sonra Su Varisi olduğunu öğrenir ama Su Krallığı Toprak Lordu Amon tarafından yıkılmıştır. Nova sürekli olarak dışlanır ama Hava Lordu Sina ona yardım edip onu sarayına alır.

Nova ölmüş Su Lordu'nu geri getirir ve birlikte Su Krallığını geri getirmeye çalışırlar.

Nova'nın ruh bağı ile bağlı olduğu hayvan düşmüş bir krallığın Lordu olan, orman ruhu kaplan Tayga'dır. Tayga kadim bir hayvandır ve insana dönüşebilir.

Bu İlahi Su Lordu Arın. Bir zamanlar diyarın Kralıydı ve gelmiş geçmiş en güçlü Lordu'du. Arın insanları kanları ile yönetebilir ve Su Krallığına çok sadıktır. Onun için Su Krallığı her şeyden önemlidir.

Şimdi işler biraz karışıyor. Lord Daren'in ondan büyük bir abisi var ismi Lord Evran. Ateş Krallığı'nın Varisi Ariana' ya aşık olan Arın onun Ateş Varisi olduğunu gizledi.

Su Lordu'ndan nefret eden Evran bu bahaneyle Su Krallığının yarısını ve Arın'ın öldürerek onunla birlikte öldü. Arın Su Krallığını sakladığı için savunmasız kalarak öldü.

Onun ruh bağı ile bağlı olduğu hayvan bir deniz kızı olan Adalia'dır.

Devamını yazmamı ister misin?

Merhaba. Çoook teşekkür ederim. Mesajınıza geç cevap verdiğim için kusura bakmayın. Yeni gördüm. Letfen devam edin.

Show Your Magic — Alıntı

Her yer çok karanlıktı. Yasak Orman'daki ağaçların arasından fısıldayan rüzgâr Josephine'in yüzünü yalayıp geçiyordu. Ay bulutların arasına gizlenmişti. Josephine sakinleşmeye çalışarak cübbesinin cebinde bulunan asasını sıkıca kavradı.

"Lumos," diye fısıldadı. Etraf meşe asadan yükselen ufak, altın ışıkla aydınlandı ve Josephine böylece nereye bastığını görebildi. Etrafı ağaçlarla çevriliydi, aylardır yağmur yağmamasından dolayı iyice kurumuş olan toprağın içindeki çakıl taşları ayakkabı giymesine rağmen Josephine'in ayaklarına birer iğne gibi batıyor ve canını yakıyordu. Farkında olmadan bir kozalağın üstüne bastı ve ani bir refleks olarak kolunu kaldırdığında, dikenlerin sıyırdığı derinin üzerinde korkunç bir acı hissetti. Dudağı patlamış ve kanıyordu, cübbesinin kol kısmı bir dikene takılınca yırtılmıştı, kalbi boğazında atıyor ve bacakları ağrıyordu ama Josephine vazgeçmemekte kararlıydı. Başına bir şey gelmeden önce Dorotha'yı bulması gerekiyordu. Derin bir nefes aldı ve bir ayağını diğerinin önüne attı—

"Jo!"

Durdu. Biri adını sesleniyordu. Çaresiz bir çığlıktı bu; yardım için yalvaran birinin sesiydi. Üstelik çok tanıdık geliyordu... Ona seslenen kişinin kim olduğunu anlayınca Josephine'in kalbi göğsünde ağırlaştı. Dorotha'ydı.

Ama en azından yaşıyordu... Onu kurtaracaktı.

"Dorotha! Buradayım!" Josephine sonunda onu gördü, çalıların arasında bedeninin ana hatlarını görebiliyordu. Çalıları elleriyle ayırdı, her ihtimale karşı asasını cebinden çıkararak birkaç adım attı...

Ve gördükleriyle olduğu yerde donakaldı.

Ruh Emiciler. Josephine bu puslu, kasvetli ve soğuk yaratıkları görür görmez tanıdı. Bunlar hiç şüphesiz Ruh Emicilerdi... ve Dorotha'ya doğru geliyorlardı!

"Jo!" diye tekrar bağırdı Dorotha, nefesi boğazında tıkanarak. Ona doğru süzülen Ruh Emicileri izlerken gözleri bulutlandı.

"DOROTHA!" diye haykırdı Josephine. Asasını kaldırdı ve kendini hayatındaki en mutlu anları düşünmeye zorladı. Dorotha'yı kurtarmanın tek yolu buydu.

Hogwarts'a ilk geldiği an. Ortak salonda Dorotha'yla birlikte Alastor Weasley'nin şakalarından birine güldükleri an. Kütüphanede gün batımını izledikleri an. Dorotha. Onsuz yaşayamazdı.

Asasını ileri uzattı ve haykırdı: "Expecto Patronum!"

Aniden, kör edici bir ışıkla bir kaplan Josephine'in asasının ucundan fırladı ve öfkeyle kükreyerek Ruh Emicilere karşı saldırıya geçti. Ruh Emiciler, gerçek mutluluğun ve huzurun yakıcı gücünün altında eriyerek yavaş yavaş yok oldular.

Josephine gözlerini açtı. Kaplan Patronus ve Ruh Emiciler yok olmuştu. Yanında bir tek Dorotha vardı.

"Dorotha..." Josephine Dorotha'ya doğru koştu, dizlerinin üzerine çöküp elini tuttu. "Seni kaybedeceğimi sandım."

"Kaybetmedin." Dorotha'nın solgun yüzünde bir tebessüm belirdi. "Hayatımı kurtardın."

Yere birkaç damla gözyaşı düşene kadar Josephine ağladığının farkına varmadı. "Ben... ben seni korumak istedim," dedi sesi titreyerek. "Sensiz yaşayamazdım. Sen olmadan ne yapardım bilemiyorum. Bu bir içgüdü müydü bilmiyorum ama..." Dorotha'nın gözlerinin içine baktı. "Seni seviyorum. Biliyorsun, Ruh Emicileri alt eden şeylerden biri de sevgidir."

Dorotha'nın tebessümü güçlendi. "Haklısın." Josephine'in elini daha da sıkı tuttu. "Ben de seni seviyorum."

Bulutların arasından kendini göstermeye başlayan ay ışığının altında, birbirlerine sevgiyle bakarak orada öylece durdular. Sonra Josephine asasını aydınlattı ve Dorotha'ya elini uzatıp kalkmasına yardım edip bir kolunu omzuna sardı. "Hadi," dedi. "Seni Madam Pomfrey'e götüreyim."

Ay ışığı ve Josephine'in büyüsü yollarını aydınlatırken birlikte Hogwarts'a doğru yürüdüler. Birkaç dakika boyunca, şu dünyada sadece ikisi vardı.
