no but imagine the tally marks turning black if their love is requited.
and then imagine the tally marks becoming a scar when the one they love dies.
Imagine someone with no tally marks meeting someone with 50 tally marks
Imagine someone with no tally marks starting to like someone with all tally marks scarred
imagine aromantics with no tally marks laughing at this tally mark bullshit system
imagine someone afraid of being in love suddenly getting a tally mark
imagine someone married with a single nice black tally mark has a new one just appear
imagine someone with a single scarred mark that refuses to love again gets a new mark and it’s black
imagine someone who falls in love too easily having a lot of marks
imagine nurses at old people homes taking care of people with scarred marks, black marks, and no marks
This is a horrifying system.
I think Zsaasz would have an easier time.

So I just got home from watching box trolls with saccharinecyanide and I can say without a doubt that it is really good. It has a nice plot and the animation is so smooth. Also, despite the rumors, it is NOT transphobic. The character in question wasn’t trans, he was crossdressing to stay incognito in public events. Much like Zelda and Shiek.
I should probably update my ask blogs.

Yeah. I should definitely update my ask blogs.

Absolutely. Should absolutely update my ask blogs.

LOOK AT HIS TINY ASS HAN DI MLAUGHING SO HFUCKING HARd
This is from a show called Detective Conan, where a little boy routinely tranquilizes his detective caretaker. The boy then uses the unconscious body as a dummy to solve murder mysteries in his place. So the reason this grown man has a little baby hand is not because “quality” animation. It’s because that’s a literal baby hand.
Oh my god that’s even better
I REMEMBER THAT SHOW! I FORGOT WHAT IT WAS CALLED! I REMEMBER THAT ONE WHERE HE DIDN’T TRANQUILIZE THE GUY BUT INSTED ASKE LOUD ENOUGH WHY THERE WAS A STATUE OF A PERSON STANDING UP SO THE DETECTIVE REALIZED THAT THE VIC DIED STANDING UP MAKING RIGERMORTIS SET IN FASTER!

This study was published in the New England Journal of Medicine
A study has shown that a fake surgery is just as good as a real surgery when it comes to reducing pain in patient’s who have a torn knee cartilage.
Researchers in Finland studied two sets of patients (one that received the surgery, and another that was led to believe that it had) and observed no significant differences in improvement between the groups after one year.
These implications are profound. Millions of people spend ridiculous amount of money for surgeries each year. Are some types of surgery really necessary? Is simply telling someone they are about to go through an effective surgery good enough?
It’s up to debate but the study’s sample size was relatively small about 146 patients. Further investigation is needed.
I have a masterpost on neuroscience that has a section dedicated to mind over matter interactions, if anyone is interested: MASTERPOST
The mind is incredible, really.

Watching a neat anime you’ve never heard of before:
With a very mediocre/unsatisfying conclusion.
It’s like 75% of animes out there. Super cool thruout till you get to the ending and they just don’t know how to wrap it up.
FMAB had a very satisfying ending.

imagine a video game where you create a hero whose destiny is to save everyone, but throughout the game you start making harder and more questionable decisions, and the game gets darker and darker. and in the end you’re just standing there, clutching the controller and finally realizing you were playing the villain all along
fuck
FUCK
FUCK
Braid.
You’re thinking of braid.
Or Dishonored.
Or fallout.
