[ID: an edited Calvin and Hobbes panel where Calvin sits, smiling, at a lemonade stand with a sign taped to the front of the table. It reads: It’s time to retire that other meme and replace it with this template. Change my mind. Next image is the same meme but the sign reads: Steven Crowder does not deserve a meme format. Change my mind. /end]
“yeah i don’t like the title ‘feminist’, i’m not a 'feminist’-”
okay yeah understandable, it’s (the movement) failed a lot of women and others, not to mention the word’s thrown around without its actual meaning constantly.
“yeah i don’t think feeeemalesss are better, I think women are people. so I guess I’m more of a humanist ^u^ ”
… oh. oh.
(my brain running a million miles an hour): you don’t know what feminism is… -you, you don’t know what those terms are- you. you have internalized misogyny don’t you?-
love is not as transient and conditional as some of you guys think it is. when people tell you they care about you, they don’t change their mind ten minutes later because you said something weird or annoying. the people that love you will still love you when you do things that upset them. love doesn’t instantly disappear like that
Matt Firor : No. It’s canon. It’s part of the world. Bethesda said that many times too. It’s just we are seven-hundred years before TESIV:Oblivion and almost one thousand years before TESV:Skyrim. There’s a lot of time for things to happen.
Meanwhile:
Has anyone checked Akatosh is ok?
it’s the result of bad/lazy/unaware writing.
like, i know they went and made up an in-universe reason for any discrepancies in continuity with ‘oh time sometimes breaks apart and nonsensical stuff happens, don’t worry’, (and originally used as an excuse to not settle on one particular ending of es2 as canon), and we all joke about it and it’s funny.
but it’s just bad writing at this point. it’s bad writing, and it’s tiring.
on the one hand, eso is allergic to pretty young men npcs and its engine affords absolutely ZERO aesthetic favours towards mans… which is why bastian looks wayyyyy older than 27 and craggy as hell visually.
on the other hand, his character is great and griffin puatu’s performance is so goddamn wonderful and endearing that it overlays and makes up for any lacking visuals on the game’s part…
all this to say, i treat drawing bastian a little like how all those oblivion fan artists approached interpreting lucien lachance back in the day.
