Erika Ishii's wardrobe is incredible. Every time I see them on Dropout they're wearing some cyberpunk vampire bdsm bullshit like they're starring in a new Underworld movie. She dresses like someone who has a costume department making dope outfits for her. What's really amazing about Erika's outfits is that it's like he exists in a whole other world than almost everyone else. Nothing's made me more certain that Erika is the main character.

Shadowheart: “Fabian ran his calloused fingers along Allura's scales. Her tail quivered in response...”

Wyll: ''Taste me', Allura pleaded. Fabian smashed his lips against hers and their tongues twisted together like two eels in the Sword Sea."

DIEGO LUNA as CASSIAN ANDOR in Andor, Season 2 first look

Me, after being here 10+ years: Cringey? Hellsite? My home this is!

I literally remember nothing from Fallout 4 and my screenshots folder isn’t helping. It’s like a twilight zone episode 

god please take all of my mutuals' suffering, double it and give it to donald trump

"There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone. Unsure. Dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.

Remember this: freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they've already enlisted in the cause.

Remember that the frontier of the rebellion is everywhere and even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And then remember this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that.

And know this: the day will come when all of these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empire's authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege.

Remember this:

Try."

Tallulah was a evil bigot in season one who almost killed 5 strangers(pilot program and the dragon) for being NAMPs(and because she lost a tournament).

Lemli was a kind and gentle person who befriended the pilot program when everyone else was too scared/stuck up to.

Guess which one would end up on the power of friendship and inclusively island, and which one would end up on burn the world to stay in power for one more second team,.

<3 Aarbria, I love your world building.

It's almost as if a point was being made about the ways in which existence within systems cannot help but shift personal overton windows towards the system's standards. Tallulah foregoing her wand and leaving Gowpenny after the events of S1 (which I believe was mentioned in the Holiday special) was an act of stubbornness that forced her to adapt to the world outside Gowpenny. That's why she's thriving on Galamanis despite the collapse of the old magic. And Lemli, for all her kindness and sympathy, remained within a system that shifted her views because that how systems actually work. The system taught her that the apocalypse came and went and adaptation was impossible, so this is what she's become in order to survive.

I have never seen such an accurate depiction of what it looks like without glasses.

For writers with good eyesight, this is a good reference for what it’s like trying to see without our glasses

i love it when people can't finish telling a joke or a story because they are laughing so hard. they get the giggles and whatever they are saying is absolutely incomprehensible. nothing could be as funny as watching them struggle through it, nothing could be as infectious as their joy. truly a wonderful human moment

No but the Hunger Games really said "what do you hate more- the atrocities or the people who commit them against you? Because like it or not there IS a difference. If you hate the people who commit acts of pure evil more than you hate the acts themselves, what will stop you from becoming just like your enemies in your pursuit of justice? What will keep you from commiting those very same acts against THEM when the opportunity arises? And what then? The cycle of pain and suffering will never stop. Round and round it'll go. Nothing will ever change. But. BUT. If you hate the atrocities. If you hate the vile, senseless acts MORE than you hate the people who did them to you. If you are able to see that evil is evil regardless of who does it... The cycle ends with you. No, you may never get justice. But you will never be responsible for making others, even your enemies, suffer the same crimes you have. The atrocities will never be committed by you, never by your hand. And that's the way you change the world. It's the ONLY way" and that's why I am sure it will never stop being one of the most relevant works of fiction ever created

If you're wondering why polling averages are suddenly showing Trump winning despite all the bad news he's gotten lately- it might have something to do with this:

Basically, Republicans are ratfucking the polling averages by churning out huge numbers of partisan polls, and the polling aggregators/analysts like 538 aren't doing due diligence to compensate for it.

Now, what is the purpose of this?

Well, in the immediate-term, it creates a narrative that Trump is winning, boosting morale of his supporters while demoralizing support for Democrats and Harris.

Beyond that, if polling averages show that Trump is winning ahead of election day-which we can pretty much guarantee they will, because see above-then they will use that as "proof" of fraud if Democrats subsequently win.

Basically, they are engineering a pretext for their next coup attempt in front of us.

The only numbers that decide anything are actual votes. So ignore the polls, and VOTE.
