ATTENTION PEOPLE WHO OWN ANY PHYSICAL COPIES OF ANY RECENT VIDEO GAMES
Ever look at the cover art of your case and think “wow this looks super generic and uninspired”?
I’ll use Doom as an examlpe:
FANTASTIC game. SHITTY cover art. Looks like a cod clone.
A lot of games suffer from this,
HOWEVER
recently I’ve noticed that many games have a little secret inside the box…
You see, on the inside, when you open the case, some of these titles will have an alternate box art!
Simply open the case, *carefully* pull out the paper…
And on the other side…
:O
Now doesn’t that look like a much better representation of what playing DOOM is like!?!? The best part is theres no mountain of text on the back, the art just keeps going!
Best DOOM cover ever.
Other examples include Final Fantasy XV, The Last of Us, The Evil Within, Fallout 4, etc.
Not all of my games had this, but the ones that did had such cool art. I love the lack of “advertising text” on the back. Some of the alternate box art just paints a scene from the game so well you dont even need the title to know what it is.
Reblog to save a life! You might have some badass alternate box art in your games and you just never knew it 😀
Wtf why dont they ever tell us about this??
One of my favorites is on the original Wii version of Xenoblade Chronicles:
If you’re one of those people who thinks executive dysfunction only happens for things we don’t like (school, cleaning,) then please consider the fact that I’ve been meaning to plug my phone in for 20 minutes and I’m now at 2% and still putting it off to write this post ¯_(ツ)_/¯
My anime/video game list consists of over 100 titles, easily, and yet I almost never get around to watching/playing any of them.
Executive dysfunction is not just for boring or unenjoyable things. It’s for everything. Even eating.
What is executive dysfunction? O.o
Put simply, it’s difficulty/inability with initiating tasks. The prefrontal cortex is responsible for executive functions, like decision-making and impulse control. People with ADHD and other neurological disorders that affect the prefrontal cortex often experience difficulty making decisions and performing tasks, as well as exercising self restraint. Part of why people with ADHD tend to procrastinate so badly is out of genuine inability to begin tasks, even if they’re very important.
It feels, for me at least, like I’m constantly waiting for something and I can’t start X task because I’m waiting. I never know what exactly I’m waiting for, but that doesn’t stop me from wasting hours and days not doing the things I need to do, even if I have a desire to do them.

Oh thank god, someoneput it into words.
For me it’s also waiting for the “right” time to come to complete the task because for some reason my brain thinks doing the task at any other time is horribly, horribly wrong, weird, and out of order. The “right” time might come eventually, might not. It’s a lottery.
Yeah. This.
Y’all make it sound so deep but tbh to me it feels like tapping on the ‘Do the dishes’ button but a screen pops up saying ‘you must be lvl 27 to do this activity’ and I’m like ‘well shit I’m only lvl 26 so I guess I’ll just dick around until my exp goes up
And then next time I tap ‘do the dishes’ it demands I’m lvl 28 and by that time it’s getting a bit moldy and I’m just staring furiously at this pile of dishes, slapping the ‘Do the Dishes’ button to no avail. The stars aren’t in position.
The stars are never in position.
sometimes there’s a Just Fucking Do It special move available but it depletes your entire power bar and the recharge speed is completely unpredictable
I click Do Thing and it loads to 78% and then stays that way for 3 days
For me it’s like a notification pops up saying “The dishes need doing. You have 4 seconds to comply. If you do not comply within the allotted time, “Do Dishes” feature will become unavailable for 3 weeks.”
And if I don’t get up literally that instant and force myself to do the task, and wait even like 3-5 minutes, it becomes like when u open an un-dismissible window and accidentally click outside the box and your computer makes that chime noise to let you know that the option to click outside the box (do the dishes) doesn’t exist.
And then I’m just laying there like “ding…ding……ding….” until 3 weeks has passed and I’m given another 4 seconds to seize the opportunity to do the dishes.
That last one is 100% yes.
This, all of this, but when the time finally is right i do sometimes feel the need to get up, it usually is in the middle of something else that, at that moment, i suddenly decide is less important. and then i can’t finish that anymore, cause the time ain’t right.
The iconic McElroy Double “Unless.” I can hear them perfectly.
I noticed a couple people in the tags saying the Double Unless is a Hamilton reference, which means there are people out there who don’t realize that Hamilton was actually referencing the McElroys, not the other way around. Lin said so himself.
So anyway, I just wanted to share the good, good news.
Oh honey the actual public faces of India is whiter than that lol trust me. Even the light skin Indian girl in the pic gets scrutinized for being dark.
Same thing with the Philippines
And Thailand, a lot of people are now getting surgeries to look more westernized
A former staff engineer, who recently left Tumblr and asked to remain
anonymous for professional reasons, tells Vox that the NSFW ban was “in
the works for about six months as an official project,” adding that it
was given additional resources and named “Project X” in September,
shortly before it was announced to the rest of the company at an
all-hands meeting. “[The NSFW ban] was going to happen anyway,” the
former engineer told me. “Verizon pushed it out the door after the child
pornography thing and made the deadline sooner,” but the real problem
was always that Verizon couldn’t sell ads next to porn.
Porn on Tumblr is something Verizon needs to wipe out if it’s going to
make any money off what it thinks is actually valuable about the
platform — enormous fandom and social justice communities that, just
before the Verizon acquisition, Khalaf was insisting the staff figure
out how to better monetize.
On that note-
Two former Tumblr employees said they were alarmed when Khalaf chose
Black Lives Matter as an example of a community that the company should
focus on converting into Yahoo media consumers. One told The Verge,
“Simon explicitly said that Black Lives Matter was an opportunity to
[make] a ton of money.”
Capitalism is disgusting and ruins everything.
cool! unsurprising!
How the FUCK are you going to blame capitalism on something a bunch of idiots in a board room decided without any market research!? This has nothing to do with money as Dec17th hits, it’s going to hit their pockets harder than anything. Verizon owns Yahoo who owns Tumblr and if you are suggesting that some other form of “economic utopia” I.E. socialism would’ve prevented this I’d love to hear it. Fucking idiots @smitethepatriarchy
So we got one person claiming that capitalizing on markets has nothing to so with capitalism and then dick here, despite the fact that he’s aware that Verizon owns Tumblr, claiming that this has nothing to do with money.
Did you even, like, glance at the article? This happened because Verizon can’t sell ads on a platform that allows porn and remain on the App Store. Just leave Tumblr already dick.
how are you gonna blame capitalism on something a bunch of capitalists without oversight in a private board room decided??
So now we are just blaming capitalism for the actions of capitalists?????
