waifu culture is actively being erased as we speak. i will not stand for this.
It's kinda funny how nobody self ships with female characters
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Many people self-ship with female characters. "Waifu" denotes a fictional female character fans feel romantic attraction toward, a widespread practice. Self-shipping/yumeshipping communities feature this extensively. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waifu fanlore.org/wiki/Self-Ship…

"Noo they didn't imply the sages died in the original! They were just gone by the time you fight the bosses and then only existed in a spiritual realm for the rest of the game!"

I miss this version of Amanda Waller. I hate how DC has portrayed Waller in recent years.
The way she told Batman she knew his identity was cold asf.

You know For a guy who likes Deep Space Nine for its nuanced political storytelling. Your own interpretation strips away much of that plotline’s nuance.
Twitter is maybe not a nuanced place for this sort of discussion, but part of the beauty of “Deep Space Nine’s” portrayal of the Maquis is it’s a deconstruction of the way that bored privileged middle-aged people like to play at being a disenfranchised group.

The Gerudo in OoT call themselves a band of thieves. The townspeople are reacting according to how the Gerudo label themselves!
Adding to the conversation surrounding Orientalist and racist depictions of the Gerudo in Zelda, Nintendo made NPCs associate Gerudo with thieves as a first reaction when you interact with them while wearing the Gerudo mask.

It also is not the most feasible state for most indies. They are expected to be both, marketers, public figures & influencers on top of talented artists, writers, programmers; whatever your goals are. We really need a better indie dedicated platform so talent can get recognized.
Love my indie moots and all that but we kinda forget sometimes that indie is a necessity more than a preference. Obviously there are those that flourish with the freedom being indie grants, but its not the ideal state for most.

Otherwise as it is now, most indies who don’t multitask to high heaven are just gonna be stuck in foreverniche territory, only selling to their friends and peers; and the availability of their work always being dubious in nature in a likely growing digital only market.

That same market also being heavily regulated by algorithms to filter out things not completely in line with corporate interests of said platform & what the majority of people want in an ever growing market of consumers who are becoming more selective in acceptable tone & style.

This film is fascinating, in that it is one of the loosest historical tellings of Cleopatra (which is saying something) while clearly knowing their sources (some obvious nods to Josephus in how Mark Antony and Herod the Great interact.)

Honestly, I much prefer the Ocarina of Time 3DS remake over the Switch 2, not just because I don't care for its UE5 look, but I also think this is a better remake overall with its gameplay tweaks and Master Quest. Graphical remakes shouldn't be Game of The Year contenders.

About time Sock’Em Boppers get the love they deserve. When people talk about awesome 90’s/early 2000’s toys; these get the short end of the stick but they were the best. Especially if you grew up in a house that liked rough-housing, aka Me.

If math textbooks had the same quality control as history textbooks, nobody would know real math, because it would get formulas completely wrong. If I see another textbook flaglantly forgetting the Franco-Prussian War to make WWI seem more historically unique, I will riot.
