I love that Supergiant's answer to "how can we possibly follow up on the first game's rebellious failson protagonist" is to make the sequel's protagonist an earnestly dorky honour-student-with-impostor-syndrome type whose college major is murder.

A great friend of mine passed away earlier this morning to cancer.
He was the toughest guy I had ever known. He was funny and always a big morale booster to our static. He was our tank buddy, our fake melee, our Bonkers Black Mage, he was our raid leader, and he was our best friend.
He was our big little guy, and I am gonna miss him so fucking much.
I lift my flagon to you, Flynt. Love you Sam. Rest in peace.
The theme song he chose for his WoL in Dawntrail...

It's Memorial Day in Israel as of an hour ago.
This Memorial Day is particularly painful with so many people added to the list of the fallen on October 7 and in the subsequent war and unrest.
Many of them are from my hometown. I've been reading the messages people left on their memorial pages and it breaks my heart.
And of course for all the pain and loss on the Israeli side there's more than tenfold the loss in Gaza, in addition to a dire humanitarian crisis with millions more in danger.
I wish with all my heart for this war to end as soon as possible and for both Israelis and Palestinians to begin walking the path of peace, justice, and reconciliation, though I have very few hopes that it'll happen any time soon.
But very few isn't none.
Worse, bloodier, and longer conflicts and enmities have ended peacefully before. France and Germany, Japan and Korea, Israel and Egypt, are a few examples.
I believe this conflict is no different, and one day the list of the fallen will grow no longer.

love the newest update!! if it's not too much trouble, would you mind elaborating a bit on the situation with the dog ?? im soo curious and not good at picking up context clues lmfao
no trouble at all! i'll leave a bit of it up to interpretation, but basically, there was a dog on the territory and it needed to be dealt with. Ravenstar wanted Sleepydawn to prove his loyalty and skill, so rather than send a patrol after it (the smart choice) he ordered Sleepy to take care of it on his own. when Sleepydawn refused (because its a stupid fucking idea), Ravenstar purposefully manipulated him into doing it anyway, which would either get rid of the dog, or kill Sleepydawn (a less than ideal situation, but hey, anybody who defies him shouldn't be in his clan anyway, right?). The manipulation works and Sleepydawn goes by himself. Lo and behold, he manages to drive the dog off (or kill it, again, up to interpretation), and Ravenstar acts like the entire thing was planned out and he knew this would happen all along, reinforcing that he is one of the very few (if not only) cats who ever believed in him without his father's shadow looming overhead. so now Sleepydawn is very firmly cemented as Ravenstar's supporter, yay!

ideal ways for me to die
1. old age, peacefully in my sleep
2. after a long and illustrious career i am at a rooftop gala hosted in my honor. i am wearing a beautiful gown, holding a glass of red wine, standing by the railing. a scorned lover approaches and, after a passionate spat, they push me over the edge of the building. the wine glass goes flying, splattering their outfit in red as a visual metaphor for the blood on their hands. as i descend my gown flies around me like two beautiful wings, a bird in flight. a photographer on the street manages to take a photo before i hit the ground and that photo wins the pulitzer. a new york times think piece is released regarding whether or not it's moral to profit off a photo of someone's death. the think piece also wins a pulitzer.
3. sex accident.

Movies where the lead actor did their own stunts are always either "the director forced them to stand in freezing water for fourteen hours a day while periodically throwing rocks at their head for the sake of 'authenticity' and they got PTSD and almost died" or "they insisted over the explicit objections of the production's insurance company that they be set on fire for real because it would 'help [them] understand the character's motivation'" – there's absolutely no middle ground.

we still get immediately shoved out of our immersion in tv shows or films when The Girl find a dead body and immediately shrieks - we just don't find it realistic because we're pretty confident most people would gasp rather than shriek (i.e. sharp inhale rather than sharp exhale) and it also feels unnecessarily (and predictably) misogynistic too, as men encountering corpses almost never do the same on screen
also of course please do tell us if you've actually encountered a corpse unexpectedly, because tumblr is absolutely a place where some people have done this thing and we love a good anecdote
suddenly imagining "burst into song" as a potential response
edit: since lots of people are still responding to this (we were amazed at the huge response over a just 24 hour poll), we want to make it clearer that we were never saying "of course nobody shrieks", we were railing against how on screen, women always do in an over dramatic way, and when men do it's made fun of like they've emasculated themselves by shrieking (so it's clearly a deliberate misogynistic trope)
meanwhile of course some people do shriek, as clearly demonstrated not just by the nearly 11% in the poll, but by all the tags we got inundated with - the main responses seem to be: gasp, swear loudly, vomit, grunt or make some other kind of other inarticulate noise, and shriek
anyway, thanks for playing

Not to keep reliving trauma on main, but I'm getting weird deja vu from where my health was a few years ago and where it's at now. And most of it is revolving around Good Omens.
In May of 2019, we genuinely thought I was dying because I was dying. My organs were in the process of shutting down because my red blood cells were prematurely self-destructing and damaging my kidneys in the process, and I was rapidly coming to terms with the fact that I might not survive much longer. I'd fought the good fight, and I'd lost. Mostly due to medical neglect. And I was mad about a lot of things, but do you know what I remember from the traumatic blur I'm left with?
"I'm going to be so pissed if I die before Good Omens comes out."
I'd waited 20+ years at that point for something like a tv adaptation of Good Omens. Ever since I was a child and my dad read the book to me, and I fell in love with it. And here I was, mere weeks away from the TV release and on the verge of death.
Then like a miracle, a miracle that hinged on human compassion and a doctor being willing to listen to me, I was saved. Dragged back from the jaws of death by a relentless hematology department that refused to give up on me and ultimately saved my life. And a week later, I got to watch Good Omens propped up in my own bed, still weak, still ill, with my heart stuttering in my chest every time I laughed. And I remember thinking, "I did it. I got to see it."
That it's now it's 2023 and my health has tanked again. My organs are rebelling against me and no one seems to know why. But yet again, a few weeks before Good Omens is set to release, I find a doctor who listens to me and is doing all he can to help. Striving with the grim kind of determination that can only come from a place of compassion and care. Like my world is worth saving, and not just his.
Which is rather fitting, I think.

Two people were talking and one went, "That's a funky dead guy on your necklace," to which the other replies, "That's Jesus Christ."
