@InspectorCaracal let me see if i can get stuff perhaps not represented here yet for you!

-Monkey Island series, especially Monkey Island 2
-Grim Fandango

(you could put sierra here but sierra can go fuck itself)

-Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Sky/Darkness

-Jade Empire is a Bioware classic that I think gets overlooked a lot but is rather unique in its fantasy take (how much racism is in there is up to you, but John Cleese's cameo is pretty great) >

PLEASE LOOK AT JUNIE... HE'S A VERY GOOD EEVEE.... YOUR EEVEES ARE ALSO VERY GOOD EEVEES TOO

i just wandered back into pokemon let's go (i had done an extended wandering into splatoon but i'm hitting the stage of the octo expansion where i'm Too Dumb For This) and my eevee!!!!!! my SON!!!!!!! MY BEAUTIFUL BOUNCING BABY BOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@revolverocelot @maple HONEST TO FUCK

that's the shit that's gonna make me lose my mind and start spackling those twee little slogans everywhere. IF YOU SPRINKLE WHEN YOU TINKLE PLEASE BE NEAT AND WIPE THE SEAT i scream at the top of my lungs, hunting some slob down with a fashionably-appointed baseball bat,

realtime footage of me arriving into the splatoon tag on fan fiction dot net

@maple I HAVE NO IDEA HOW THEY DO IT EITHER, i think the answer is "not very well" given the hell they leave behind

(just accept that toilet seats are for butts to be on, people who try to hover. it's fine. it's really fine.)

@maple given how many of us try to do the hover-over-the-toilet thing and end up becoming piss sprinklers and not cleaning it up, i'm not comfortable sharing a bathroom with us either :(

running a piece of loading screen art through photoshop to glitch-ey it up a bit totally counts as a good and reasonable idea for fanfic 'cover art' right

me: hey, brain, it'd be useful if we could remember things like our social security number, or which way is left

my brain: no can do, i'm busy remembering other stuff

me: ...like?

my brain: like how stalin got sent to the gulag for shit cosplay, and how the cantina band in star wars plays jizz music!

me: ....

my brain: so i'm afraid you're going to just have to continue looking at your hands to do the L-for-left thing so that we don't lose any NECESSARY INFORMATION

@anna although this is clearly nonsense, i... think i may actually know what this person may be attempting to refer to.

the fact that i possess that knowledge somewhat shames and horrifies me.

(when he was a young poet-writing thug, stalin got cornered by police and tried to pass himself off as a little old lady to get out in disguise.) (but he didn't want to shave his sweet mustache.) (so he got caught.) (...it was pretty obviously a shitty disguise and not gender politics tho)

i realize in all of that ranting, as a white cishet girl, i have it amazingly better than many, many, many other people. others have to deal with more multiplicative minority statuses, and so on, and so on.

but still.

fuck.

real lonely bitch hours is now y'all

and i guess it's just hard to manage that and the desire to be seen as a whole person, and to be *loved* as a whole person.

i just want to someday be loved for my gestalt entity, for the sum of my parts, not just for one facet.

and i am really tired of the overwhelmingly cishet male gaze that views me as only worth talking to for that one aspect, and the rest of my entire self as wholly expendable and ready to be discarded.

this is aside from how many of these fetishes for fat people seem to depend on those negative connotations. people are into it because of the *shame* of sleeping with someone like me. because someone like me is *slovenly*. because someone like me is *disgusting*. because loving someone who looks like me is inherently *humiliating*.

so stuff like that ends up being so often a roller coaster of beginnings of hope and then me getting smashed right back down again.

i'm sexually attractive, but only if i can play up someone's gluttony and feeder fetish. i'm sexy, but only because they can pretend it's inflation porn and take photoshop to my tits to make them into balloons. i'm wanted, but only for one aspect of myself. and no more.

i realize this is something that a lot of women are far more used to. they've had since middle school to develop how to cope.

but if you're fat, you become invisible and off the market in many respects in daily life.

i still don't know what to do with the idea of potentially being sexually attractive to someone. i REALLY don't know what to do with the idea of being somebody's fetish fulfillment.

i know it varies widely but damn, i feel this.

it is why porn of fat women is such a minefield.

i just want women to be shown as beautiful and desirable *and also be fat*.

instead, i get a lot of specific fetishes. inflation. feeding. so on.

and it's... so easy to feel disrespected by that. if i am nothing more than a fulfillment of a fetish to someone, they have no incentive to relate to me as a human being.
