Thinking of them possibly still travelling together after the game ending and sneaking into one of those fancy balls🤧

Dialogue:

A: Your hand, dear.

K: whaaat?? Princess treatment for little ol' Karlach??

A: Of course darling, we've to more than just dress the part you know. Best make a show of it.

?: And who are you?

A: My darling wife K: His WIFE (shortie's all mine!)

My girl Karlach never gets princess treatment bro, idc that she's 6 ft and some change, I'm sure she'd be stoked to have someone treat her with a little fragility every once in a while 😔🔥🔥

They're not actually married here btw, just thinking of them pretending to be a couple to sneak in to places is hilarious to me (aka fake dating au ik ik TOMATO TOMATO)

I could NOT be in feudal Japan. Here are some reasons why

I wasn’t born then.

Happiness advice is hard to compose, since we're all born with different brains, producing different chemicals in different quantities at different levels of efficiency.

"Try regular exercise!" chirrups an influencer whose brain has never known a day of depression in its squiggly grey life.

But I do think I've noticed behaviours that poison joy, and I haven't ever heard it as advice. My theory: bullying is bad for your happiness.

Of the four types of bullying, three of them - intimidation, humiliation and harassment - are usually committed by insecure people, trying to make themselves feel more powerful by taking that power from another.

(The fourth type of bullying is exclusion, and I have no citations for any of this, since it's just a bunch of stuff I reckon. I do think I'm right though, for what it's worth.)

The least happy comedians I've met are the ones who smoke weed in their flats while watching and scoffing at clips of their rivals. Their enemies. Their friends.

I'm slightly transfixed by the story of a relatively well-known comedian who became obsessed with the Instagram stories of an amateur comic. The established comic would watch the videos, share them with friends, play them at parties - mocking the comic's lack of self-awareness.

This newer comedian wasn't internet famous or anything. Just a guy starting out, trying his hand.

To operate like this, you must believe that some people have value, and others do not. Once you've decided this, how can you expect your brain to permanently accept that you're one of the worthy? You can make yourself feel powerful in the short term by humiliating another. But in the long term, you curate a worldview where a person's eccentricities are a reason they deserve to suffer.

Good luck enjoying what you see in the mirror.

Larian wrote their women really well. I just did shadowheart's quest and she is wonderful. Karlach has stolen so many hearts for being her earnest self. (I'm sorry Lae'zel I didn't save you in my first run but getting to know you has been SO good in my durge run so far!) Side characters like Alfira and Nocturne and random foundry worker #3 with a wife and a kid to worry about - all so good. Even crazy Orin is so unhinged and fun.

They just feel like they're written as people first, and it makes me realize how much writing is like "So This Is A FEMALE CHARACTER" and I can't put my finger on it but I just set a book down at 100 pages for being very....not person-first. Ugh it's too early and I'm not explaining it well. Yes, it's about stereotyping but also not.

Anyway, I really strive and aspire to write the person first, and I am energized to make sure that comes across in my work.

I think it’s sexy of u that your words align with your actions

If you feel like giving up...

You’re not alone.

I know that this is said so much, but it stands true.

If you struggle with your mental health, that alone can make it seem as if no one is there for you. I know how much this hurts.

It can make it seem as if you have nothing or no one good in your life to turn to in times of need.

It can make you feel like you are a bad person for struggling.

It can make you feel like you are a bad person for having additional needs.

None of these are true. Issues with our mental health can, will, and do lie to us.

Don’t give up. Yes, it may sound like it’s becoming cliché, but it’s so important.

If it seems like no one else is there for you, I’m here for you. I see you.

Reach out. I know how hard this can be as well. I struggle with it too. See? You’re not alone.

You’re valid no matter how much you feel like you’re struggling.

You’re valid no matter how “needy” you feel. (We all have needs, it’s human.)

Never feel like you are a burden. (Another lie our mind tries to feed us.)

Even if you feel stuck. Even if you feel alone. Keep Going.

Things are so much better when you are around
