Hiiii I'm Lil'! This is a blog dedicated to whatever I wanna put on the internet, like stuff about my life as a Christian, poems, or other thoughts about video games or tv shows or movies. Mostly I'm just here to post suuuuper rarely and look at memes. :3 I also delete my posts a lot depending on my mood so if this blog looks real empty it's because of that. A lot of different stuff goes here but what stays here I'm pretty picky about!

If you wanna know more about me and my faith (they're not separate!), I have an About page here: LINK!

Otherwise I'm pretty private about myself, was raised in the "never tell anyone online any personal information or the predators will GET YOU" age and it's not a bad idea. People can be mean online. :(

But yeah!!! Thanks for visiting, have a nice day! God's love is on all of you! <3

I know the joke is that Ghost Trick fans can't tell you why to play it, just that you should, but here's some spoiler-free reasons to play it:

  • It's an incredible puzzle game. The puzzles are basically Rube-Goldberg machines, where you manipulate objects in a series to effect change in the overall situation. Do you like complex mechanisms and the concept of the butterfly effect? Play this.
  • The basic gameplay: you are a ghost. You have the ability to posses and manipulate objects, and move from object to object. Someone bas died. You can go to four minutes before their death to change their fate using your Rube Goldberg powers. Also! The puzzles do a great job of ramping you up in difficulty and teaching you the gameplay, but wow do they get HARD in late game. You can replay any puzzle, and also rewind time as you wish. You can't lock yourself out of things by doing it wrong, since you can redo.
  • The story is SO GOOD. There's a reason why everyone tells you as little as possible -- it's a compelling mystery that sucks you in. The basic idea: you are dead. You need to figure out who you are and who killed you. This spins out into a tale of political intrigue.
  • It's by Shu Takumi, the creator of Ace Attorney. It has very similar vibes, in that it's absolutely bonkers characters and situations but also WILL make you cry once it's all revealed. Great mix of serious and humorous tones. Seriously, someone dies when a giant roast chicken statue falls on them and the root cause is because of [serious political events]
  • The aesthetics. Great music, great character design, have you SEEN what the game looks like? Really good use of color and stylization. Character animations are often hilarious.

  • Missile is there. You WILL love bestest boy. Don't google him. Just trust.

Sometimes writing is like having an enormous lake in your head, and you want to get it out of your head and into a proper place for a lake so other people can come and go swimming and ride jet skis and stuff, except all you have to move the lake is a teaspoon. So you’re just sitting there frantically flinging water out of the lake with your teaspoon and telling people, “Guys, this lake is going to be so cool when it’s done,” but it will never be done. There is so much lake.

Kissing every mentally ill Christian on the cheek very tenderly right now. God made you perfectly, in His image. But this is a broken world, and it's not your fault. You are not your illness; God certainly doesn't see you that way. Do you have any idea how much He loves you? Through the psychotic episodes, the chasmic depressions, the tempestuous mania, debilitating anxiety, terrifying hallucinations, anything and everything you might suffer from...

You are still beautiful to Him. And to me, too. God loves you, and so do I.

Okay so I did some research, very basic research, on the user base of tumblr and how many of us there are.

There are at least 300 million unique visitors worldwide on this site. Over 500 million blogs.

Listen. Tumblr is $30 million in debt. This is Super easy for us to solve.

If each user gifts one blog crabs, which costs slightly over $3, that would be roughly $600 million at least. Far more than enough to get Tumblr out of the red zone.

If we want tumblr to stay afloat and not change something as integral about their operating system, we need to show them they can be profitable without reducing themselves to common social media sites. What we have here is special. It is different. We are the social media site people run to when theirs collapses and for good reason.

If we want this to work, we have to make it work. We can even make it into a game. Just how long can we outlast the other social media sites?

Yes that’s exactly what I’m saying.

It needs to be a holiday. Pick a date a few weeks from now, and just make it Crab Day. Maybe a Saturday as a lot of people are paid on Fridays. Just in case this post becomes more popular than any I've had before, lets set the date as the last Saturday in July (which for us in 2023 will be July 29th.)

On July 29th, gift as many crabs as you can without breaking the bank. Post crab memes if you cannot afford a crab.

Tumblr can pull this off. Tumblr likes doing things like this.
