the director of god of war 2 and god of war 2018 really just has a tiny horse in his bed

Whether he's a Marine, Sailor, or low budget Commissioner Gordon Judge, I love him no matter what :)

one fun thing about being a teacher in march 2023 is that chess is a literal epidemic among teens. we are starting to have meetings about how we can STOP teenagers from playing too much chess which is like if we were trying to figure out how to stop them from reading for fun. When i was in high school five years ago chess was nerd shit only but now it is transcending every social and language barrier and is absolutely rampant. kids aren’t on their phone texting in class anymore it’s ONLY chess.com. kids are playing chess on their phones while playing chess in real life. this is still better than tiktok because at least the kids are developing an attention span from this

@thebitchyslytherin consider this a warning

listen up I need to talk about characters in pain alone. a fighter who won their most recent match but who goes home alone to a crappy little apartment where they're lucky if they manage to make some ramen before they pass out on the couch, only to wake stiff with bruises in a few hours. a vigilante who loses to the villain and gets left on a rooftop to pick themself up and try to stagger home without getting found, arrested, or passing out in their costume. the new member on a team who gets the dirtiest, hardest jobs as an initiation and who can't admit to anyone that they're breaking under the pressure because all their teammates will hear is weakness.

I need characters pasting bandages on injuries with trembling fingers as their vision blurs. I need characters desperately trying to haul themselves up just one more stair so they can stagger to their front door. I need characters who make it through that door only to collapse right behind it, watching the light in their bathroom blur and fade before they can get to their first aid kit. I need characters passing out in alleyways only to wake up hours later and know they still have to try to make it home on their own because they think they have no one to call.

I knew Road 96 would be political but I didn’t realize it was “play Bella Ciao badly on a saxophone with a lesbian-coded runaway teenager while trying to escape an authoritarian country” level political. Fucking iconic.

“stop fucking around, potato girl!”

“do you even know what you’re doing?! stop it, sasha… i don’t want to kill you…”

“who would even think of eating the whole thing by themselves?! ahhhh she’s eating me she’s eating me she’s eating me!”

“sasha?! that meat is jean! you can’t recognize him anymore?!

In Yiddish we don’t say “I love you” we say “דאַלוי פּאָליציי” which roughly translates to “you’re my moon” and I think that’s beautiful.
