Wait, is he just wearing the red dollar store horns Toriel bought and a pair of glasses?

I planted some oats and barley ("cat grass") for the cat earlier today so of course I'm walking over to peek at it every half hour or so, like it's going to somehow magically have sprouted by then

Anyway, just gonna be looping this all night while we wait to see what happens down south

I spent most of today in a basement in rural-ass Ontario, with the net down.

Literally more rat shit than I have ever seen in any one place in my life and there's no way we weren't breathing in like, dust.

Upside is I didn't have to be online for most of a US election day.

It may not get you any closer to changing anything for the better, and it may leave a bitter taste in your mouth, because let's be honest, Democrats are just "right light" at this point.

But you'll help prevent immediate material and psychological harm to vulnerable people.

Look, it should go without saying, and I've refrained from weighing in on the US election so far

But like, given a choice between a bad status quo party that won't persecute minorities and LGBTQ, and a bad authoritarian party that will

You fucking pick the first one

re: deltarune, undertale 

Two threads recur here - often in DELTARUNE, options are presented to you in the form of "Something" and "Do not" - I think in all of these cases, and I need to confirm this, it doesn't matter which one you pick, the thing happens anyway.

"Do not" to not to playing JEVIL's game? "You're already playing"

"Do not" to opening the locked cell? The key reacts automatically.

So we see repetition of the "do not" and "removal of choice" themes from one of UNDERTALE's endings

Sorry if I'm being insufferable about this. But one more deltarune thread for the night: "Do not" and the removal of choice.

In UNDERTALE, the stabby ending ends with the choice to destroy all of existence ("ERASE") or not do that ("DO NOT").

But at this point, it doesn't actually matter what you choose - the First Human has already taken over. If you try to choose not to end the world, you get dialogue like "DO YOU THINK YOU'RE THE ONE IN CONTROL HERE" and it ends anyway

re: deltarune 

At the very least, I'd have expected the three kings to at least *recognise* him if he was a dark world prince, even if he's not actually a card suit.

re: deltarune 

I'm specifically noting hearts here, because Ralsei claims to be a prince, and wears heart iconography. His whole story of "I've lived here my entire life waiting for you" is shaky at best, and actually contradicts his own legend that "Three heroes appear at the world's end"

Also, I don't even think he's a Darkner:

So, I think Ralsei's persona is probably fake? In every other card suit, the creatures look the same. Lancer looks a lot like his dad, the King. The low and high tier diamond/heart enemies look alike, as do their respective kings (see image).

Ralsei does not - you can specifically see the King of Hearts here, who looks totally in line with the hearts archetype. Which is not Ralsei.

My internal clock is so messed up that the DST change didn't even register as a thing this year.

I uh, hope the deltarune semi-spam isn't too irritating here. I just need a place to dump it so I get it out of my own head, and I really don't want to interact with like, reddit communities or whatever. ESPECIALLY ones that sprung up around video games.

You couldn't pay me to.

When you first arrive in the dark world, Kris' description is different.

Hey, I'm just saying, it's logically consistent for phone-ablo to be (almost certainly) exploitative with its mtx model, and simultaneously for people complaining about it to be entitled pricks throwing a tantrum because a soulless megacorp didn't pander to their exact desires

Hmm!
"Quiet Autumn" is a very very similar song to UNDERTALE's "Quiet Water"

I actually don't think there's a lot more to say about that, just... a similar song occupying a similar space in the plotline. Recurring narrative structure, maybe?

re: deltarune 

Oh, whoa, there's The Circus theme again in "Empty Town"
