    fun fact, the “eye of the needle” isn’t referring to a needle. they’re small gaps in the big stone walls just big enough for a person to squeeze through but intentionally designed so that a camel cannot get in. he’s not even saying it’s metaphorically impossible he’s saying it’s literally impossible, and by design.




  • personally, as someone who was absolutely in love with ow1, ow2 just isn’t the same to me. I’ve never been able to see it as anything other than the regrettable cash grab that it was. I could never really enjoy it. rivals tho? rivals is fun. and I don’t have that nagging voice in the back of my head telling me I’m just playing with the taxidermied corpse of a game I once loved.

    also rivals is just kind of solid? the characters might be a little bland because corporatism and fitting an already designed mold but the game play is rather fun.

    and im v much not a marvel fan, supeheros in general are just kind of meh. tbh the only superhero media I’ve vibed with at all is doom patrol. moon knight was p good but it doubles down on the “killer alter” stereotype and I’m so not here for that, nor do I like his gameplay in rivals.



  • I agree with a lot of your points, however, outdoor cats are really bad for local wildlife, so from a purely utilitarian standpoint there’s less animal suffering by keeping them inside. And they’re not slaves, we don’t force them into labor under penalty of death. You could argue for prisoners i suppose.

    We fostered some feral kittens and I was worrying about the same stuff, restricting freedom and such, and then there was a big storm w hail and I went down to check on the kittens and they were cozy as hell.

    There’s more to it than just deprivation. One of ours is the baby of a feral momma but our lil girl has never seen a hard day in her life, no outside, no shelters. And seeing how much personality she has just melts my heart.
