I fucking love how it isn't even foreshadowing, they just beat us with a fucking stick and then punch us in the gut
ok last post (for now...) but like, Nice canonically having OCD? I have so many feelings about it.
So far, it's been portrayed as the stereotypical "needs things neat and organized" thing which fits his powers but isn't necessarily OCD. Some people do that but it's a stereotype that is often considered harmful because it makes the disorder seem more benign than it is.
OCD is, at its core, an anxiety disorder. Compulsions (repetitive actions such as washing hands over and over, checking locks multiple times, etc.) are typically a means of staving off anxiety of "something bad" happening. That fear of "something bad" (i.e. obsessions) can be anything from internal to external, such as fears you might be a bad person or fears your house will burn down or that you'll be contaminated and fall ill. Compulsions try to treat that. It's not necessarily logical and people with OCD often know that their compulsions aren't reasonable but it's not something they want to do, they feel like they have to do it no matter what or there will be consequences.
Now, if they really are going to give Nice accurate OCD, then I imagine it's not just about his powers--it could be a pre-existing condition simply worsened by it. After all, both Wreck and Moon's feelings towards Nice don't change just b/c of what people believe their relationship to him is, even if their powers change (Moon teleporting to him, Wreck destroying the buildings Nice's affiliated corporation sells).
So I really hope they portray Nice having some form of moral OCD honestly. He probably wanted to be a hero genuinely at first but then began to realize that the world is very complex, and if he makes one mistake? If he doesn't give himself to the hero cause at all times? If he has to see his friend possibly harming civilians just to make some business richer? He's constantly watching himself, making sure he doesn't just look perfect, but is perfect morally. But his very existence as a corporate hero is antithetical to that.
And it's not just the guilt after the fact of making a mistake, it is a constant fear even when there's proof to the contrary. I've been thinking recently about how "perfection" is such a terrible state--you must strive to constantly maintain it. You don't "make up" for a mistake, you can only constantly check yourself to make sure you never do it again. If you slip up once? That's all the effort to "get better" down the drain.
I just...feel so bad for Nice now...
Ok so guys thinking of making a new social media platform.
We’re calling it Y.
There are no “tweets” theyre called yeets. Because to send them you gotta yeet them. You can choose to go to one person/specific group (yeet it at a friend) or public (yeet it into the void). The animation for sending it is the yeet crumpling itself up and then it is thrown at a random image (of a certain wealthy man)
To view a yeet there is not the traditional dashboard. Instead there is a trashcan filled with crumpled up paper balls. To make the experience more engaging you have to click each ball to unfurl the yeet.
Which brings us to the best function. There are no likes. There are only “y?”s. It is just an image of a ? Because y would you look through the trash.
Then you can either reply and yeet it back in the trash can, or just dont do anything and yeet it aside (other people will still see the yeet this is just for funsies)
Also sometimes you pick up a yeet and its just an ad we gotta get that revenue dont worry the chance of seeing them is random and surely you wont see 10 of them in a row
Let’s talk about this for a moment. This formation is devious and I feel bad for the monsters. Keep in mind, Jean got her vision after handling an invasion. Just thought that should be said.
The monsters coming in from the side entrance have to get past Eula, and if they manage to do that they run into Lisa “The Purple Witch” Minci and her wolf god trained student. IF those creatures survive they have two choices:
They run towards the world’s strongest maid that’s trying to make a name for herself, or towards who I’m assuming is Sucrose; who is right next to the alchemy table to make whatever she has to.
The monsters coming in from the bridge are facing the man who can throw a phoenix and his brother with the perfect move to not only protect his brother, but make him stronger. All of that while two archer can snipe from both sides of the wall, but call out incoming enemies.
A hillichurl that survives then faces two more arches that are positioned where they work daily. One is a small feline huntsman around balconies while the other is a pro adventurer that can fly or send out her familiar to cover her blind spots.
Now let’s say various types of churls break that line of defense. I would not be shocked if the two question marks together end up being the traveler if Klee. You know she’s not sitting this out but needs a guardian. If it isn’t us then maybe Dhalia. Then there’s the lone question mark. I am so confident it’s Bennett. Just him, the monster, and the bad luck they have to deal with. Nobody else around to get hurt and he’s no pushover.
Now the lucky monsters that made it through all that defense are getting funneled up towards the god on his religious sniper’s nest who’s probably been firing assist shots to every group in front of him. The closer they get, the more likely to escape his eyesight and run towards Jean “Overachiever” Gunnhilder and Mona “i foretold your arrival” Megistus running devious defense with healing!
THEN the final obstacle is the woman of the church that makes it her job to go out every night and kill said monsters while the hydro deaconess is keeping that cryo assassin healthy along with any other knight.
Varka didn’t bat an eye taking half the troops on an expedition because invading Mondstadt with citizens like them around is an awful idea. Noelle is chilling by herself and it makes sense! She’s not the one who needs help!
hello again tumblr forgot you exist and ANYWAY by worms I mean I rewatched Trigun 98 but with my boyfriend this time and IT IS ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT SOMEONE HELP ME. I don't know if he can handle my obsession rn.
He's also infuriated by Vash, which like yeah fair. He's just a silly guy tho.

Today is a good day
watching non-french players try to pronounce neuvillette is hilarious because 1. it's usually awful (and endearing), and 2. french people have no idea how to pronounce it either.
In this game - you gotta play Nice
Maybe they weren't mistakes, maybe they were on purpose, maybe they were crimes...
