second part of this post where i recap interesting things that happen in the cfv ds game ride to victory

- FIRST UP. ALL TIMR FAVE SCENE.. CONFIRMATION THAT KAI VISITS AICHIS SOMETIMES!!!!!!!!! UNPROMPTED AND UNINVITED!!!!!! AND AICHI JUST LETS HIM IN!!!!

sorry i sound like such a rabid fangirl but this is so soso important to me. like i feel actually crazy about the fact that by the time of asia circuit kai now feels comfortable enough just drop by aichis house to cardfight him. the fact that the protag thinks hes joking about visiting aichis house is killing me bc kais like "😐 i'm too busy to make jokes. clearly i am going to his house for real. you can tag along i guess" in response. he is not playing abt this he is so srs. also the rest of the scene is basically you third wheeling kaichi as kai inspects your deck and tells you to fix it with some cards while he fights aichi

- next up is: nagisa making a bento so spicy it literally knocks out kamui COLD.

i didn't get a screenshot of this but nagisa actually asks you to taste the bento and your dialogue options are

1) "wow.... this is a taste i've never had before"

2) "i think it's a little too spicy.."

3) "... it's delicious" (LYING) (YOU ARE A LYING LIAR WHO LIES)

so in conclusion never eat food from nagisa i guess

- miwa being silly and misaki literally Tearing into his ass for it... wtf

for context idk how to translate this but basically miwa was doing the whole Bit he did in ep 38 where he dressed up to play into morikawas Ninja Master M thing (example pic included). like he was doing the voice completely unprompted and everyone was like "what the fuck are you doing. stop that. rn". they just don't understand his silliness....

- jun asks you for help constructing his dark irregulars deck with the new cards he got and before he even gives the cards for you to look at he HAS to give you the disclaimer that all of them are just COINCIDENTALLY sexy ladies and he DID NOT DO THAT INTENTIONALLY so DON'T LAUGH AT HIM HE IS SO SERIOUS!!! HE IS SO /SRS (im laughing at him anyway)

- finally we have aichi comparing the protagonist to himself and saying he wants to support the protagonist because they remind him of a "once-upon-a-time" version of himself 😭😭😭 this isn't funny like the others but it made me go Awww

#cfv #cardfight vanguard #toshiki kai #aichi sendou #kaichi #miwa taishi #jun mutsuki #nagisa daimonji #jamie talks #spam posting #they weren't kidding when they advertised this game as ''showing new sides of the characters'' #the jun scene was kind of delightful actually i giggled #ohhh yeaahhhh you just so happened to hand me three cards that are all sexy ladies... uh huhhhh #the fact that miwa will just sometimes do voices for fun bc he feels like it and everyone else is like What are you doing. Stop. Stop. Srop #aghhhhhh ohhh god i miss them 😭😭😭 theyre so real to me

the FOMO thing in sso is also like, i feel its been getting worse and worse? every event theres now like 5-6 new sets of clothing+tack, or is it more than that?

having to make the emotional and economical decision "do i want to get this limited item before its gone?" can be hard even for just 1 item. like, deciding if youre getting the event horses or not.

but theres like 5 new shirts. 5 new saddles. etc for every type. and you have to make so many decisions, do i want this one, do i want that one, before theyre gone until next year (at which time there will be 5 new sets alongside those 5 previous sets).

it would be different if they added this many new items to the permanent shop bc then there's no FOMO, no real stress. you can look and go "oh cute! i want to get that thing!" without feeling bad and stressed and pressured about it. you can take your time and buy sc for it if you want, but on your terms, when its a good time for you to do that (or for your parents).

many other games like animal crossing pocket camp are also full of really predatory FOMO marketing in the exact same way. its hard for adults to withstand, and its even harder for kids. this isnt something we should just say "oh well" to. its created specifically to manipulate you. its not created in a fair way.

#i dont think any advertising that is made to manipulate people is okay :) i think being dishonest in business should be illegal actually #shein sweatshops vs the middle class ppl who think its acceptable for them to shop from there bc they dont truly think about the sweatshops #like. advertising and marketing is MADE for you to not notice the toxic materials and the sweatshop workers and the manipulation #and in sso's case for you to not notice theyre manipulating childrens feelings to milk them/parents for money #and if you defend these kind of things like oh its fine to be manipulative bc everyone does it. you are not okay

most confusing order history to someone without seven layers of mental illness decaying their brain

#snap chats #YEAH I WAS REFERRING TO THIS LAST ASK BTWJVLKVJ #amiami is so mean for not advertising the plushies were ready to order from them... #i was actually checking to see about the hakuho pin cause for some reason im paranoid in thinking i didnt get it #update on that its supposed to be here this month..... but oh well i wont think bout it too much #BUT YEAH NO THEN I SAW THE Y7 PLUSHIES WERE READY SO. #SO I RAN. #the good thing about preordering these through amiami is that you dont pay immediately you pay when theyre ready #so while i had already put money aside for these three it's still nice I Guess saving up more #idk how to explain it but anyway Metal Innit

when advertisements load before the content im There for i feel a special kind of irritation

#words covered in moss #What Do You Mean the advertisments load seamlessly but i have to wait for the Actual Images Im Here For to load #this is @ pinterest and tumblr #mostly because theyre what i use most #man someone should invent an app ad blocker

Saw someone earlier say that Tumblr keeps putting new features in places where people's muscle memory will make them click it by mistake to drive up metrics and make the site more marketable, then fake apologizing and rolling it back when people are understandably upset and this whole 1999 thing they're doing is the perfect proof

On mobile it's right where your feed used to be so folks who got used to swiping to get to the feed are now faced with one specific tag that they can't block (that isn't even that good, you can find better tags with tumblr's shitty "algorithm" or nonexistent search feature)

On the site it's maybe better? Maybe worse?

The 1999 tag is in the same place on the site, but now there's a randomly pulsating thing referencing Y2K for some reason that does not and will not leave

They're pushing on the fucking limits of their users trust once every month or so, without acknowledging that doing that makes all of their users, and I do mean ALL of them, trust them less and less every single time

Partly because every time they try some new shifty marketing scheme a new essay (like this) appears to let people know what staff is trying to pull and just how obvious and underhanded it is

#tumblr changes #1999 #rant #y2k #to clarify their plan is to abuse everyones muscle memory to drive up metrics on their new features #then fakely apologise and roll it back (lie) when everyone gets upset about “shitty design” #then they tell those fake metrics to advertisers to get them to think that staff is actually doing things that we like #because advertisers and corporations in general love metrics more than results #anyway #complain to them about predatory bs like this instead of the bs 'bad coding' and 'bad design' that these usually get labelled as #let them know we know what theyre doing and that its shitty

I see that subaru story going around again and i think theres a difference between a company that sells a somewhat necessary tool like cars realising that a large part of their existing demographic can be explicitly targeted (paired with better working conditions for their staff who are part of that demographic!), and people slapping a rainbow flag on undeniably unnecessary things like vodka or polyester crochet animals, or doing even less and simply using rainbow colours to market their normal shit and calling it political support

#sure these are likely both rainbow capitalism but i really wish that every time we saw a rainbow flag or a 'we support women' phrase #in advertising people did a little think about 'how does this actually improve the lives of the people being targeted?' #BEYOND the supposed use of whatever theyre trying to sell you

feels very strange to get podcast ads about how pride friendly orlando is rn what with the current political conditions of florida for very large swathes of the queer community

i mean i dont have any suggestions for like idk the marketing team of the orlando tourism board to do any better like i certainly wouldnt know how to advertise rn, thats a rough hand youre stuck with and i hope your shit ass transphobe fascist politicians drop dead.

just. wild to hear rn

#toy txt post #and like maybe it is a pride friendly area within florida but like the fact that im getting advertised it from a very different state #its just Feels Very Weird. its like the same energy as when companies started having normal ads again about having like #holiday gatherings and football parties in like 2021/2022? like no actually the unprecedented times are still upon us. your pandemic ads #were insufferable for sure like they felt very weird and stupid and patornizing and but you have somehow managed to Make It Worse #thats kinda how it feels like the same vibe. it was one thing before it was pride month and it was just like casually trying to convince me #to come to universal and disney but now its june so theyre talking about their Gay Days #and like it would almost certainly be very weird and uncomfortable if it was like listen we acknowledge the current guy we have #is going like full blown fascist with an intent on genociding queer and particularly trans ppl but like listen we installed this new ride #and we'd really like for it to pay for itself with ticket sales or whatever. idk just feels weird. i dont know if i have a suggestion for #the advertising board of tourism in orlando to do differently like i dont have a suggestion for them except to maybe get that fucker out of #office. and it probably feels less weird if ur like In The State or in another state with similar horrifying shit #its probably like well whatever and thats fair. i mean its not fair i hope all your transphobic fascist ass politicians drop dead and that #yall will be safe #anyway. just. very weird. anyway idk. @mouse if you kill desantis with no mercy just fucking destroy his ass #ill forgive u a little bit and consider hitting up your extremely expensive theme park if i have the funds. universal if u pitch in on #destorying that bastard ill consider visiting you again too. again if i have the funds. i wont go to the terf wizard section but i do want #to see the new hulk track 🥺 #ppl of florida especially marginalized ppl of florida. you deserve so much fucking better than you got im so sorry #floridian govt makes me so mad for like the regular human reasons of. they suck for a lot of fucking people and also the very important and #unique ecosystems yall have down there but also for the personal selfish reasons of. florida seems like Really Cool if it didnt have #like #the fascists. and gun culture. id love the climate. well. on the Atlantic side. gulf too warm for me personally. so many creatures down #there. cool places and you got those Very themey theme parks and listen i would like disney to have less power ( #(AFTER THEY DISEMBOWEL DESANTIS. I WANT THEM TO DESTROY HIM AND HIS CRONIES FIRST. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ANYTHING) #but like they did kinda go off with the Theming. i do love that. universal too BUT. not to derail this post into roller coasters but also #sorry that is a thing im incapablw of being normal about sorry UH universal also went tf off with the themeing and i Love it HOWEVER #i do with the coasters were more. visible. i cant speak for disney i only went once as a very small tiny child and i remember nothing #but i went to universal in high school like Right before they completely retracked hulk and the theming was incredible i was obsessed. #but there was no way to see most of the coasters without actually riding them which i did find very disappointing.

Da Luffy Tab is most likely advertising for a netflix show that's coming out on Thursday and (I hypothesize) tumblr fucked up and probably realeased the tab too early, that's the why there are only like 5 posts in there because that Tab most likely isn't supposed to be out yet

So if you want that for da homestuck woman get netflix do to a live action adaptation of homestuck I guess

Yeah I assumed it was something like that. I'm still relatively new to Tumblr, and I didn't know if this was just something that happened occasionally, so thanks.

Homestuck Netflix adaptation will be real in 5

#if theyre going to do something like this #they could at least fix the dash #so i can see peoples icons yk what im talking about #this website is an actual joke #what a weird way to do advertising

[artificerstimetable]

wow wow scp oc we (and @dustee203 pelase gaze longingly at them<3) made as a semi-joke but got attached to wowww (we know nothing of scp shit.)

fiberblaze! THE top cereal brand that will not combust you if you don't watch the ad you should eat it

Fiberblaze is a happy fella who just wants people to eat it's cereal but like. Their cereal makes people spontaneously combust if they don't watch their advertisement beforehand.

They got thrown out a window and they're afraid of being eaten by birds again :(

They hate every other cereal. Also their cereal is actually very good for you and nutrients and yummy but their ad fucking sucks. It was made in PowerPoint. Again,, we made them with @dustee203 <3 please check their stuff out even if they don't post :))) also they're 77273 and we made them as a semi joke and will cry really hard if there's any criticism because they mean the world to us :((((((((((((((

#theyre legally not allowed to swear btw #theyre kinda just a general oc and i fallded in love with them #theyve got that peak advertiser vojce #theyre like actually terrified of birds tho #theyre just the box the cereal is seperate from them but it like #regenerates every day #once a day #dusty kept calling them fiberglass hehehe #scp oc #we're acrually so scared of scp fans we dont want this guy to be actual scary scp just a fan thing im so scared of scp shit yo #but uhhh fiberblaze makes you nutritious and is actually insanely healthy and delciious brooooo #eat it #please #just watch the ad first #as dusty said. #theres only one fiberblaze ever tho :( #lonely ass #their box sorta changes like lowercase if theyre sad uppercase if yelling #they do actually speak though and the lil fire thing is their 'eye' #this mf sees 049 and fucking *screams* #theyre terrified of birds #we played as them with an 049 ai and they fucking?? addopted 77273/fiberblaze?? #it was amazing #oc #their box is supposed to be super simple aswell bc these mfs cheap #i literally know nothing abt scps #bro we're so tired #dibujo

[orcelito]

Literally in love with my own arms. Like I definitely can get more muscle, but the muscle I Got is just soooo good. Every time i look in the mirror I'm just like. Yes

#speculation nation #im a little fucking cannonball and it's never more apparent than when im zooming down the street on my bike #ppl at work keep coming to me when they need help opening things & im able to get it and theyre always so grateful #im the Strong One at work... partially advertised by my own personal stubborness lmfao #im not actually That strong but what i lack in pure strength i make up for with stubbornness #truly embodying my year of the ox taurus vibes

[harrykim]

i genuinely hate those google chrome 'passwords' ads. i hope whoever made them explodes forever and painfully!

#theyre one of the most annoying ads ive ever seen in my life like. no i do remember my passwords thank you very much #also said it before but literally every browser has password memory like u MUST be joking to advertise based on that #i wouldnt trust google chrome with a private tab let alone any important passwords #the 'malware protection' one sucks too like idk bro why dont u just git gud? #honsetly annoying ads only ever make me ignore things forever. i still refuse to drink oak brand milk #(which is actually so hard bc they have a golden gaytime flavoured one i keep wanting to try but i will stay strong!)

I have so mant Effie comics rattling around in my brainspace. Comic where she swallows a squeaker. Comic about her taking control of her life and gender presentation from her shitty "mom". Comic about her aroace approach to preforming romance and how that's how she meets her futur queer platonic partner. Her and her qpp dicussing the town founder's (Frank, qpp's grandpa) friendship with Effie's "mom" and how that affects their relationship in the present. Effie meeting her older 45+ yr old self and talking about how they change and how their outlook on life and their goals and pursuits change in ways younger Effie never thought would happen. Comic about Effie babysitting. Etc. I am obsessed with this scarecrow woman

#i am projecting so much of my relationship with romance despite being aroace on effie like. she isnt romantically attracted to anyone ever #but she enjoys the preformance of romance (as long as all parties are absolutley clear that it is nothing more than that) #to the point where she has casual dates with people that she activley advertises for. and that romance is very superficial for her while #other relationships are so much deeper esp cuz she rarelt actually lets ppl into her life #and despite her qpp being allo and having a huge crush on effie at first not only are their boundaries are super combatable #like neither likes kisses esp not on the lips #that it just works and the romantic attraction her qpp has for effie dissapates as they get to know each other #and becomes a lot stronger as it becomes platonic. its very important to me i never see #stories where romantic feelings dissipating are treated as a really good thing esp qhen theyre replaced by something so much deeper and #sustainable. SORRY IM RAMBLING ITS JUST ALL SO IMPRTANT 2 ME #also im. so mearly there on Ray Porters design i got a basic idea #but i still wanna use an old oc for them so im still earching who to redesign #and i got a bunch of other Hatch townsfolk designed im *shakes u and projects my oc excitment onto u*
