The pantheon from Bastion (2011 game) is really quite excellent. Each of the twelve gods represents both a value and its negation and I haven't seen anyone write about it.

e.g. "Jevel, the god of health and atrophy. We each have the Tower Keeper's strength in us, until that strength runs out."

Fun fact: Nimrod was a Biblical hunter of great renown. The American use of "nimrod" as an insult (meaning someone who's foolish and short-sighted) is due in large part to Bugs Bunny's use of the name as a mocking description of Elmer Fudd.

trans stuff (silly) 

okay so now that we've buried the idea of auto{g*ne,andr*}ph*lia with a stake through its heart...

s/auto/allo/ for the much more common condition where one develops an unshakable conviction that all trans {women,men} are shockingly beautiful except for oneself 😭

gimme fifty bucks and i won't tell bl*nch*rd about it ...

Along with everything else in the Meyers-Briggs being bunk, trying to draw a binary classification between "introvert" and "extrovert" is some de-contextualizing, alienating bullshit.

I've said this before but it's extremely worth repeating: music is some of the closest we can get to experiencing what it's like to be part of divinity.

@bird@scholar.social hello! I'm a friend of Solei's and would like to get to know you! Everything I've heard so far makes you sound pretty rad :)

I just found a YouTube video with an "FBI anti-piracy warning" title card.

Wat.

I'm (approximately) a girl, and I'm dating some people who are Not Girls, and we agree that stuff between us is *hella gay*.

Irregular reminder: I use "gay" not strictly to refer to "between two people of the same gender", but instead "the genders and sexuality of those involved make this a relationship not sanctioned by cisheteropatriachy."

And on the pedestal these words appear:

Most games: "okay for players to find the next objective we better give 'em waypoints or a map or directions or something"

Subnautica: "eh just put a couple of entrances to the next zone in some deep places. Players will find 'em eventually."

I kind of love it actually. Makes me feel like the game trusts me.
