idk what traumatized or mentally ill person needs to hear this but dreams (especially the really disturbing ones you dont want to talk about to anybody) arent some deep peek into your psyche or a sign of your True Desires or whatever theyre quite literally your brain making fruit salad with whatever it can find on the shelf. just putting all that shit in a blender and hitting obliterate. its fine, youre fine, youre not a weirdo for it
if I think too much about the modern day sequences of ac3, I get. emotional. wondering what we could’ve had in later ac games if certain Events and Decisions regarding the narrative were not made.
Finally birthday of one of my favorite assassins! And while I usually prefer Ezio’s Brotherhood appearance as “canon” one, this time I decided to draw younger, AC2 Ezio.
I just love this man, there’s nothing more I can say that I haven’t said before
this whole titanic sub is so fascinating, because there really is so much to it, and a lot of emotions at play.
the fact that the more reporters investigate OceanGate, the clearer it is that the company is incredibly at fault and this completely could have been avoided if they had bothered with the necessary safety measures. the thing’s controlled with an x box controller.
the class divide at play because the only tourists that can afford the expedition are billionaires. I was talking to a friend earlier and I said I didn’t get how their self preservation instincts didn’t kick in beforehand, because I think most people would look at that tiny sub and a think of that waiver they signed that said “this company’s not legally responsible if you die a horrible death” and be like “no thanks.” and she said it’s probably because of pride, because it wouldn’t occur to people that privileged and entitled that they were about to do something incredibly stupid. the goddamn CEO’s on board.
the fucking sheer irony of it being the titanic. the fact that the titanic is also a symbol of class divide as well as a mass grave for over a thousand people, most of whom (who died during the wreck) were crew members or third class passengers. I saw someone on here who put it- the titanic is a monument to man’s hubris, and the sub is just making the same mistakes all over again. we learned nothing.
and finally just the visceral horror of it. if they’re alive, they are in hell. they are stuck in a metal tube thirteen thousand feet below sea level, with not even enough room to stand up. I’m no expert about what it would feel like to be imploded due to water pressure, but I think I would rather die quickly than roll around the ocean floor in a metal coffin with no food no bathrooms and a dwindling air supply for four days. like another someone said- they are living in a Magnus Archives episode.
like I don’t want this teenager and his dad to die, and I hope they find them, but it has become crystal clear that the whole thing is a Huge Mistake by everyone involved.
thinking about how both basim and hytham said that they had no family but basim said it while hytham was alive but hytham said it when basim was “dead” and basim didnt answer the question about hytham being his family and hytham saw the hidden ones as treating him as a son and–
