Wolfenstein - The New Colossus. Meeting Grace. Black leadership and motherhood, heavy on the virtue-signaling. I love it, though; she's an amazingly well-written character.
“I lost momma’s thimble. She’s going to kill me.”
Arthur is so sweet when talking with Jack 😭 💙
Omg, Dutch's "WHAT" at the very end
I feel like a lot of people miss out on Wolfenstein because it seems like a "hyper-masculine power fantasy," when I've never seen any other AAA game do so well at being inclusive and subverting racist and sexist tropes.
Like yeah. The MC is your typical white dude saving the day (the reveal that he's a Polish Jew was kinda half-hearted). But the people around him? Grace, the leader of the Black Panthers, takes over the revolution, with her white lover filling a moral support role. And this is treated as simply natural. Max Hass, the mentally challenged man, turns out to be an artistic genius despite his impairment. Sigrun, the overweight German who is chastised for her eating by her Nazi mother, is shown to be a strong character with much to contribute to the cause. And the KKK are explicitly depicted as uneducated boot-lickers when it comes to dealing with the Nazis, wholly unprepared for their new role as de facto paragons in Nazi America by virtue of their readiness to embrace Nazi purity.
And there are all these dog-whistles too, like overheard conversations between Nazis where they're talking about how "violent the enemy is" when a hand is raised against them (despite the pogroms and genocides). Like, it's clear why this game gave the alt right a fucking hernia.
Zillenial things

- Being alive for 9/11 but not remembering it at all cuz you were like 2
- Seeing reruns of 90s shows when you were really little but being to young to really remember them
- Feeling betrayed by Butch Hartman
- Listening to the bops of ~2009-2012 in middle school gym class
- Growing up through the transition from clunky PCs for nerds and flip phones to smartphones and sleek and easy laptops
- Pictochat

the mentality of “oh well, i’ll probably never see these people again.” has genuinely helped me with my anxiety in social situations so much. like literally… fuck it who cares anymore.
Yeah but what about when you DO see them again
when the gangrels start getting wild
did anyone see that video of the guy who was like “im really good at finding moles” and hes saying that hes gonna pull a mole right out of the ground and for a few seconds youre like ok whats the joke and then he just squats down to the grass and and jams his fist into the ground and pulls a mole up
i think about it so much
how the fuck
T H E M O L E D I V I N E R
Of course there is an ancient Scottish art of finding moles in golf courses.
druids are real and they use their animal affinity for mole-grabbing
IT’S SO CUTE AND SO DISPLEASED WITH THE SITUATION
REACH INTO THE DIRT AND YOU WILL FIND A FRIEND AND A BOY
one time in 2007 i crashed the entire club penguin website. it was down for 2 days. i was banned for life.
many of you have asked, and so i shall give:
in 2007, my older brother gave me a small piece of information that would soon result in the shutdown of Club Penguin for a few days. he taught me a glitch in the club penguin system that, when sitting in the coffee shop, would make your penguin sit on the ceiling of the coffee shop instead.
and with this piece of information, i took off. i spent hours going to every server over and over, saying the same message: everyone meet in the coffee shop tomorrow at 7 pm in the snowball server. i did this in every single server, in every location i could find.
then, finally, 7 pm the next day arrived. snowball had a population rating of 5. penguins poured into the coffee shop, all awaiting my instructions. i then gave the next message, that of the glitch. i told everyone to wait exactly 3 minutes, then perform the glitch. they did. every penguin in the coffee shop was suddenly on the ceiling, and either the club penguin coding or the club penguin offices had no idea what to do, and no way to take us down. for a small glimpse of time, we ruled victorious – nothing and no one could stop us.
every great kingdom awaits its downfall, however. eventually, the website crashed. no one could go on the website for 2 days after that. my penguin was banned for life.

Just gonna say: There is literally no romance in Thor: Ragnarok. No romance subplots, no kissing. The closest thing to it is when Hulk sees part of a video of Black Widow and it turns him back into Bruce Banner. Besides that? Nothing. It was awesome.
False there is a clearly defined 3 seconds where its implied that Loki went down on Jeff Goldblum.
This is the only argument to this post that I will accept

Homestarrunner is still completely iconic as a series but I truly think one of the best episodes was the sbemail “caffeine” like every other 2 seconds of that toon is legendary.
“Murr-freeze-bro”
“The effects of gasoline…. On Fire.”
“Parakeet.”
“At this point, the test subject…was dead.” “I was not!”
"Also, Strong Sad's adopted."
"That's not true either!"
