funerals are- a way to cope, to put our grief in sensible frame, to help process what is impossible to process together with other people and to put an end to a chapter, in a way. to be able to start to love the rest of your life after a loss. it's a ritual.

none of us will be able to go to Techno's funeral, and that's a good thing - hell, no cementary would fit over 10 milion people - but it's okay if you need a ritual of your own to honor him, to help yourself, to help each other through this.

in few days, if you need to spend a day watching his videos, or talking to a friend about Techno, laugh, cry, reminiscence, build a shrine on your minecraft world - that's okay. that's not parasocial, that's human. you are allowed to grieve even if you've never met a person - he changed the lives of so many people for the better, we didn't know him but we did know the part of him that he wanted to share. we were allowed to love him.

and at the end of the day he loved us enough to not let us mourn him without knowing his name.

GG, Technoblade. you've played the game well and we will never forget you.

THIS IS IT. THE ONLY OFFICIAL LEON ILLUSTRATION THAT MATTERS.

fan fiction is SO addicting to people with ADHD because our brains aren't innattentive, they're just constantly searching out sources of dopamine because we don't produce enough on our own. fan fiction supplies us with an endless archive of free stories - long and short - containing characters we already love and we can just devour story after story after story one after another and it feels SO GOOD.

Today’s Art Tip is: there’s a flexible slab of skin between your thumb and pointer finger called “The Web of The Thumb,” and it can be used to make your hands look more solid and dimensional.

(There are also smaller “webs” between each of your fingers but they’re more subtle.)

i envy ppl who can provide deep analysis about their favorite media and/or characters b/c whenever i like something a lot it looks like:

Are you implyin to me that a shramp managed to frah this rice? It's preposterous! But it intrigues meh so.

all the (presumably) underage fans from tiktok acting inappropriately in the live chat during the dan allen gaming interview w neil ellice and samuel roukin honestly has me so disgusted 🫠 i watched about half the interview and stopped because i found myself a bit disturbed by some of the stuff i was seeing

there is a fine line between finding a character/actor attractive and going out of your way to borderline sexually harass someone in a comment section/live chat. the fact the chat had to be TURNED OFF at one point speaks enough.

the thing is too i know the people that are behaving this way are most likely from tiktok because there has been a trend for a while now where whenever the quirky side of tiktok finds their new little character to obsess over/sexualize, they have to take it to a whole new level and make it not only about the character, but the actor as well. it’s so strange to me the way these young fans act online towards grown ass fucking men. there’s nothing wrong with pointing out someone is attractive, but blatantly making inappropriate remarks and asking stuff that’s not appropriate? not okay. this pretty much happened with paul dano back in the spring and joseph quinn during the summer, and now there’s this craziness.

and i will also say this (and i know this probably won’t be taken well by some people), but if roles were reversed and these were two women and a bunch of young men were saying stuff along the same lines of what’s being said to ellice and roukin, these men would be called out for being “predators” “sexual harassers” blah blah blah.

if you want to sexualize and ogle over a character so be it! they are not a real person. but if you’re going to go out of your way to be weird to real people you need to seriously reevaluate some of your life choices.

this isn’t a matter of “gate keeping” either, it’s straight up inappropriate and gross behavior :/

please do better!!! :(

“She deserves to be punished too.”

“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”

“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”

“She put herself in harm’s way”

“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”

“She ruined their lives.”
