thinking about how ofmd took blackbeard, a historical (almost mythical) figure that has pretty much always been depicted in media as a super hypermasculine white cishet man, and turned him into a gay man of color who wears crop tops and silk gowns, paints his nails and pines for his boyfriend

I wish I could remember where I got this idea because I don't think I came up with it on my own, but I can't stop thinking about Ed talking to Frenchie in s2e1, giving his little speech about how they're going to "Rob, sail, and raise hell forever" and how those words coming out of "Blackbeard's" mouth in any other piece of media would be a hyper masculine war cry, but here they're being said by a heartbroken man choking back tears, about to reach into his pocket and pull out a little ceramic doll representing his gay lover, who he thinks left him because he's unlovable.

As someone who started the Fallout franchise with 4 and is only casually familiar with the older entries, playing The Outer Worlds really opened my eyes to the level of satire i was missing out in by only playing the bethesda entries.

Like yeah, both of them do the “woah, cool retro future!” thing, but TOW uses that early 1900s retrofuture setting to sell this wildly satirical parody of an anarchocapitalist society. A setting which -despite being so balls to the wall- works because everyone in the world takes it 1000% seriously: “What do you mean ‘why do we pay rent on our own graves?’ It’s only fair to the company!” “Sorry I know i’m dying but i can’t accept medical assistance from you if you’re from a competing company”.

Seeing both "anti nonbinary lesbians dni" and "pro male lesbians/female gays dni" in the same Do Not Interact post sure is an experience.

It's giving: "Respect nonbinary people and how they want to identify! (unless they have multiple genders yikes yikes)"

I am just beyond done from the multigender hate. It's telling that so many people just view nonbinary as a "third gender".

People with one gender may reblog but don't clown on this post.

Howdy there! I made a thing! I never posted that I finished this, but boy howdy did I finish this! I’m genuinely surprised to say, but my ten years too late Lezio fic is in the top ten biggest fics in the whole of Ao3 for the AC Fandom and also the largest Lezio fic at all. I am so, so proud of this fic. Do you like angst? Do you like domestic bliss? Do you like pining, lemons, whump, romance, idiots to lovers, and idiots in love, and bottom Ezio? then boy howdy do I have the fic for you!

Stop by. Give it a read! I hope you like it!

A rivalry is more than head to heads or titles won. Here's a thread of why the Federer-Nadal rivalry (2004-2022) is considered one of the greatest and most unique in sports history:

  • Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are mirror opponents. A once in a century jackpot with two style of play at the opposite ends of the sports' techniques. In terms of athlete's posture, they are eeringly of the exact same height and weight, yet Federer is a right-handed player with a one-handed backhand and Nadal is a left-handed player with a two-handed backhand. Federer encapsulated the elegant, fast-paced serve and volley style of the past decade whereas Nadal introduced innovative heavy groundstrokes, topspin, and defensive baseline plays. They encapsulated the progress of the sports' development and their matches popularised tennis to unprecedented heights.
  • Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are the respective best at their dominant surfaces. They both stil hold world records for most Grand Slam titles on grass (Federer with 8 Wimbledons) and on clay (Nadal with 14 French Opens), respectively dubbed King of Grass and King of Clay. From 2006 to 2008, they played every single Wimbledon and French Open finals against each other.
  • Roger Federer was the undisputed current world number one since 2004. He admitted he almost lost his passion for the game due to lack of competition until Nadal became the first to beat him in a grand slam final. They became the only pair in history to share the top two year end rankings for 6 years, from 2005 to 2010 and 2017. In their own words, they were each other's biggest motivations to achieve greatness.
  • Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal were the first to dominate the sports consistently, pushing away one or two odd times Grand Slam winners. Together they won consecutive majors from 2005 to 2007, 2008 to 2009, and 2017 to 2018. Their dominance kickstarted what was dubbed the 'golden era of tennis'.
  • As tournament seedings are based on rankings, their 40 matches were tournament finals, with the all time record of 9 Grand Slam finals. They were each other's partners in the worst and best moments of their careers.
  • They played what is considered by most tennis analysts as the greatest tennis match in history: The Wimbledon final of 2008 for 4 hours and 48 minutes.
  • They were leaders of the game from the background, being president and vice president of the players' council for more than 10 years with both only agreeing to join if the other's participating.
  • They have played countless charity matches to support each other's foundations. In 2020 they broke the world record together, with their exhibition in Africa attracting the highest ever attendance in a tennis match.
  • Known for their sportmanships, Nadal has openly expressed that he cried of happiness when Federer won his first ever French Open (Nadal's best tournament), whilst Federer expressed his wish to have a draw match and shared his 2017 Australian Open with Nadal.
  • Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are two of the most successful, consistent, and longstanding tennis players of all time, playing more than 25 years of professional tennis with a record of 42 Grand Slams between them. Many have not known the sport without them, they are representative of a generation.
  • Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal remain close friends after almost 20 years of facing each other on court, having stated their friendship as the proudest milestone of their rivalry. As per his personal wish, Federer will retire playing doubles alongside Nadal in his last ever competitive tennis match.

Okay but it would actually be hilarious if Keanu Reeves voiced Shadow in Sonic 3, cuz Sonic is canonically a huge Keanu fan, and that’s the perfect set-up for a Boom-style fourth-wall-break where Sonic is gushing is about his favorite movie star and Shadow just rolls up like, “you called?”
