^ From a therapist-friend, in case any in-therapy-friends ever worry about this.

And this is because it would be really shit of them to open up your entire brain into hysterical Upset and then boot you out without helping you find equilibrium, but there is probably someone right after you. Just to fully articulate.

Yeah exactly. When I do therapy I always keep an eye on the clock so I know when I have enough time to keep opening up big issues, vs. when I have to work on getting them back to stable so they don’t leave my office and walk straight into a wall.

good to know 👍

oh this is an unbelievably fucked up thing to have on a gameboy color game that i have to play on an emulator

so the wiki doesn’t say this but unless you go into a secret menu found by pressing the “select” button twice in a row and go to the option vaguely named “timer” where you will be prompted to ask the harvest sprites for help and say “yes”

your tools

will never upgrade

no matter how many hours or even days you wait

I found a different wiki and

Text on a mustard-colored background that reads: Be careful when using the Timer. Since it's the only way to have the Sprites work on upgrading your Sickle and Hoe, you do have to use it at some point. Just don't forget that you've turned it on! I made the mistake of forgetting and had turned on the Timer in the Summer in order to have my Sickle upgraded to the Golden Sickle. A week later I turned my game back on, only to discover that the Sprites and worked though the Summer and even past the Fall and onto the last day in Winter. Grandpa was right there waiting to give me my evaluation! I hadn't played during the Fall and Winter so I hadn't shipped any crops since the Sprites don't plant crops for you. Having the Timer turned on goofed up my attempt at becoming a Farm Master, but it was my own fault since I had forgotten that I turned it on.ALT

im going to have a panic attack WHAT.

ITS GOING TO ADVANCE TIME WITHOUT ME PLAYING? IN A GAME WITH A STRICT DEADLINE THAT HAS SPECIFIC AND TIME CONSUMING REQUIREMENTS??????? AND DOING THIS IS MANDATORY??!?

You guys haven’t seen me in a while, huh? I made a new character, it’s the purple raccoon noodle to the left. Mischief. Scraps daughter, and a blob of chaos wearing a costume. 

bayleafpaprika:

thinking about how Oda chosing Luffy, a pirate, to be the protagonist of One Piece may be one of the most brilliant story moves by any shonen mangaka ever. by virtue of its main character being an in-world criminal, OP naturally lends itself to becoming a story about the exposure of a society festering with corruption for what it really is, and the dismantling of a dystopia and its propagandist facade. you simply do not get a story like that with a shonen protagonist who conforms to or tolerates the shitty system they’re born into

So, as people are seeing the pretty extreme antisemitism in the new terf wizard game, it should be noted that this was not a case of “following existing antisemitic fantasy tropes”. This was purposeful. The ex lead designer is alt right and ran an alt right “anti social justice” youtube channel. The discovery of this channel and the resulting controversy lead to him later being removed from the project late in development but the main premise of the game was determined by him and others with his views.

The core concept of this game is antisemitic and fully intended to be. It is not a case of thoughtless devs or lack of cultural sensitivity. This game is intended to be antisemitic propaganda designed and developed by openly alt right devs.

Troy Leavitt is the alt-right, openly antisemitic, racist and misogynistic developer. His name was taken off the headlines after his “unsavory side” came out but he was in chagne in its early stages. As for the rest of the main credited people: Moira Squier is the game writer, Alan Tew is the director, James Cabrera is the lead producer. The existence of this thing is the product of a team’s imagination, and the vile antisemitism, which has been built upon and taken to extremes over time in the franchise is a collaboration. Everyone high up in the dev team either did this on purpose or endorsed it.

To reiterate OP’s point: this is not an accident, and it’s not the work of a single bigoted individual.

Thank you for the specific names. Yes it was a purposeful team effort and Troy Leavitt went on record as saying that he made WB well aware of his youtube channel and they had no problem with it. He said he was glad they didn’t seem interested in pushing a “social justice agenda”. He voluntarily left the team due to public backlash to his youtube channel (which he still runs). He was not removed by WB or Avalanche Software. Everyone involved in the project in any kind of higher up position was well aware of his history of alt right work and knowingly endorsed it.

Thank you for the additional information!
