the Klavier-Edgeworth parallels of I Don't Care How You Feel, the Truth Is the Only Thing That Matters™ are very interesting, but the Klavier-Phoenix parallels of nothing bad has ever affected me in my life idk what you're talking about that didn't mean anything I'm not talking about it I'm not thinking about it I'm not acknowledging it they may not be dead but they're dead to me and that's how I like it I'm never looking at them again because they're dead they're gone they're a ghost and this is a perfectly healthy way to live look at me I'm thriving I'm thriving I'm thriving are also very interesting, do you get what I'm saying.

A while back I finally figured out how to use UBlock's element blocker and promptly went mad with power. Just now I turned off all my extensions to debug something and realized how much more useable it made everything. As soon as I see something annoying I open the Ublock popup, select the element picker, click the annoying thing, and (most of the time) the annoying thing is gone forever and I never have to think about it. So here's my shameless ad pitch for things you can do with it, other than the default "block ads":
Remove all of the UI buttons that are definitely useful for someone but that you're never going to use in your life
Remove UI buttons you use only once, like "register"
Hide the "Posts +" button in tumblr
Clear all of the information your credit card website tries to show you that you don't care about so that you can focus on the couple numbers that you do
Send those pop-up "do you want to chat!" notifications to hell, where they belong
Remove various website overlays
Remove specifically the calorie numbers on food delivery websites
Hide the comments and recommended videos sidebar on youtube
Hide promotions that an adblocker doesn't pick up on because they're native
Hide your facebook newsfeed (if you just use it for chat/events/groups)
Hide discord's sidebar when you just need one channel open and don't want to be distracted, and then unhide it when you want it back
Get rid of distracting moving elements on pages
Hide almost all of the elements on twitter except the actual tweet, if you only interact with twitter via other people's links and don't want to be sucked down the rabbit hole
Generally hide "Related!" or "See also" or "You might like!" type distractions on sites where you only want to see what you came there for, not browse
Remove all of the news from weather websites so that they can actually do their job and show you just the weather
Remove the footer text on websites no one ever reads

Why is the anime so weird, it's not even the same series dude?? It's like,
Anime:
GOKU: I have a great idea to bring peace to the universe, and my leadership and compassion alone will unite us all. I have No Flaws and am A True Relatable Everyman :)
VEGETA: NO! I AM THE BEST AND I WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS UNTIL I AM RECOGNIZED AS SUCH!!!!
Manga:
GOKU: Vegeta what's cornmeal made of? I know it's what the corn eats, but what's it made of?
VEGETA: Hey Kakarot let's play the quiet game until one of us dies.

It’s pathetic to see how Soukoku is always ever going to be about Chuuya. It’s not for Dazai, not meant for Dazai or his character or feelings. It’s a ship that is only about chuuya and always will be. It explains why all skk fans are chuuya fans only and couldn’t care less about dazai. Even the ones who do “stan” Dazai apparently, actually don’t. They just for some reason can’t admit to it. Dazai is grossly mischaracterized and reduced down to a “pathetic simp” and his mental health issues are again, made only about Chuuya. All the “shippers” even think they’re dazai because they “simp for chuuya” implying that’s all his character is about. Tells you a lot about how much skk shippers “understand” dazai. So the self projection makes dazai’s characterization worse. This ship exists only for chuuya. It has nothing to do with dazai and it never was about dazai.
i agree with this actually. however, you’re talking about fanon skk, which is an entirely different ship than canon. but fanon? disgusting. i agree. although chuuya is my favorite character and gets blatantly mischaracterized within the ship, it’s always dazai that gets the worst of it, being reduced to a hopeless romantic with an unhealthy obsession with chuuya. he is written off as desperate and missing and crying for chuuya when the opposite could not have been more true. while dazai does recognize that his will to live has been reinforced after meeting chuuya, that is not enough to justify how badly he needed to leave the mafia’s manipulative and dehumanizing environment. so yea, i’m glad he escaped and he has a healthy fulfilling job that lets him honor oda’s last words and give himself a new purpose.
but i have to say you cannot ignore the fact that skk is always a cinematic parallel in the sense that dazai never doubted chuuya’s humanity—which he always faltered in—and chuuya who brought change and life to dazai who was so suicidal and had nearly given up. they are intertwined in a way that saved them both, leading to a bond of trust that surpassed even their self preservation at times. they trust each other with their lives, wholeheartedly, and this is something no one can deny as it is seen proven time and time again throughout the course of the manga.

if any of you are still feeling weird about that infamous interview, here is what alex said about it (and why that ashley girl doesn't like him). i really want to point out that what alex says here is the exact same thing us, miles fans have been saying since forever. so, if you are a fan of alex, but throw shit at miles, just remember that your favourite also supports him. and maybe think twice before starting arguments with miles fans and keep in mind that alex has the same opinion about it all.
Alongside Arctic Monkeys, Turner has a long-term side-project called The Last Shadow Puppets with his best friend, the Birkenhead singer-songwriter Miles Kane. During the promotion for their last album, the two did an interview with a female journalist from the music webzine Spin. Turner was being his usual unforthcoming self, so Kane attempted to break the ice with some groan-inducing banter. This included inviting the journalist up to his hotel room when she asked what he was doing after the interview, which, in hindsight, was pretty stupid (he realised as much the next day and emailed her to say sorry). The result, though, was a lengthy op-ed calling out Kane’s unprofessionalism and the misogyny of the music industry at large. Personally, I found some of her complaints against him a tad flimsy — holding eye contact for too long, high-fiving her, “yanking” her in “for a not entirely consensual kiss on the cheek” as she said goodbye, and not least the idea that interviewing a rock star is ever supposed to be an exercise in professionalism.
What did Turner make of it all?
He sighs. “I think he made a joke he shouldn’t have made and realised he had misjudged the situation.”
I thought it was a bit OTT, I tell him.
“Yeah, I’m not sure it was deserving of that response honestly, but you just can’t make a joke like that.”
(from 2018, this interview)

I know it sounds silly, but I'm actually very much afraid to make friends and/or mutuals in the natm fandom, because of the terrible harrasment and bullying I had to face in the previous fandom I was in. I was sent threatening messages, slandered and outright made terrible lies about. I haven't recovered from it and it's only been 2 months since I had to leave the fandom and deactivate my old account so the harrassers would leave me alone.

I'm going to make a series of mods called 'It's Not a Bug, It's a Feature' specifically designed to make Skyrim worse and less playable.

Did nobody play Cadence of Hyrule??? I can't even find a decent walkthrough or wiki for it, and I can't remember the last time I had that problem with any game, including niche indies
This game is incredible y'all. No game I've played has felt more like the best parts of pre-3D Zelda, including games intentionally meant to and even the Link's Awakening remake. And it manages to do that while being procedurally generated, too. I've been having a gay old time with it
I get the impression that a lot of people bought Cadence of Hyrule and either didn't try it or didn't get very far, then forgot about it. I and a few of my friends did at least, I don't remember if another bigger game came out right after or what. Anyway, if that's you, give it a try, it's fun. And finish Tears of the Kingdom too, the last boss alone is worth it

In response to this
Dravena: Wait, so you’re basically just a glorified schoolteacher’s assistant?
Dravena: I thought legends did more interestin’ stuff than that.
Dravena: Uh, no offense of course!
Dravena: But like, what do ya even like to help teach about? I’m sorry, it’s just…surely there’s more interestin’ stuff you’d like to do with your abilities, right?
Dravena: I mean every legend’s got abilities! That’s what makes ‘em legendary.
