Dragon Age: Origins - An Introductory Powerpoint By Me.

Dragon Age: Origins - an introductory powerpoint by me.

I did the thing.

It’s almost August and the entire Death Note: Another Note fandom knows exactly what that means.

I’m fucking crying cause you sent that text drunk off your ass and I CACKLED.

4 9 11 for the ask meme pls!

I shared two different ask posts, so you’re getting the answers to both of them! 

4: Have you ever dyed your hair? I dye my hair regularly, actually. Right now it’s black, but it’s been purple, blue, pink, blonde, etc. 

9:  What are you really bad at? Being on time for literally anything. I have, like… No concept of time whatsoever. 

11: Are you nice to everyone? I try to be! (Which basically means: I am until the person in question gives me a reason not to be.) 

4: Are you easy to get along with? I’ve been told yes, and I’ve been told no. So I guess… 50/50? I’m not everyone’s cup of tea. 

9: Does talking about sex make you uncomfortable? Not at all. Sex is just a normal part of life, so (to me) talking about sex is like talking about any other normal event. 

11: What does the most recent text that you sent say? “I cannot stop looking at your pentagram. SUCH CRAFTSMANSHIP.”

good mods for beginner dragon age players

im sorry bee im trash

extra dog slot - take ur small pup pal anywhere!

equal love - removes gender restrictions on romances. makes morrigan & alistair bi, and opens opportunities to kiss cute npcs

polygamy - romance everyone at once without them getting jealous and loosing approval (also you get an achievement for romancing them all, so you can get that in one play through!)

more hairstyles - adds more hairstyles to the character creator not the da:o toolset

lock bash - allows all classes to open locked chests, not just rogues

no helmet hack - means you can wear a helmet and get the added armour bonus, but you dont have to see it! 

gift guide - for if you have the gift dlc i think

skip the fade - skips the long ass fade sequence in the tower quest. ideal for second play throughs 

ring of invincibility - cheat mod. does exactly what it says on the tin

pineappletree’s vibrant colours - adds more eye colours and hair colours to the character creator

skip fight - another cheat mod. imemdiately kills all enemies you are fighting. this ones good if you just want to play the story, not all the combat. i love this one

expanded inventory - ups your inventory capacity from 70 to 125 (the games max)

misha the hoarder - this one adds storage to your camp! along with a fully voiced npc its truly wonderful (honestly why this game didnt have storage as a defauly is completely bamsboozling for me)

steal cooldown reduced - for when you’re playing as a rogue and want to pickpocket everyone but you’re tired of having to wait ten seconds between tries

no restrictions - removes all restrictions so now anyone can wear any armour

advanced quickbar - makes it so you have multiple quickbars you can flip through, so you can access all your attacks and items quicker

grey wardens of ferelden - gives all the warden characters the warden armours from dragon age 2! best if you start from the beginning with this one, i dont know how easy it is to pick up the armours later in the game. this mod is absolutely essential imo though

extended dog talents - gives your mabari more things to do during fights!

attribute talent skill book add - every time you load a save, you get books of power (if you use them you get extra attributes ect as you do on leveling up). these can also be sold for like 5 sovereigns each if you dont want to spend them

okay im done now. honestly i could do more of these for da2 and dai if thats something people might want?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA omg.

NEW YORK, NY—In a late-night show interview Wednesday, Senator Bernie Sanders politely asked the nation to please stop mailing him books on basic economics, revealing that he’s been “absolutely flooded” with works on the most rudimentary concepts of supply and demand.

Sanders made the request after receiving yet another daily shipment of books from well-meaning Americans who simply assumed that he has never read a book on the subject in his life.

“I’ve got 1,200 copies of Human Action, 1,500 copies of Basic Economics, and 4,700 copies of Economics in One Lesson,” the angered senator said. “I’m drowning here.” Sanders also showed the late-night host a small mountain of children’s books on the subject of economics from the easy-to-read Tuttle Twins series, sent to him from Americans who assumed he had somehow missed classroom discussions on the value of a dollar and supply and demand while in elementary school.

Sanders further confirmed he still hasn’t read a single one of the books, stating that they look like they’re “full of harsh facts” and that he prefers a more emotion-based approach to economics. He added that he’s “a little peeved” that our nation has so many choices for books on basic economics on the market. “Do we really need that many?”

At publishing time, Sanders had arrived to one of his other houses and began screaming at the sky in anger upon discovering fifty-eight more books on basic economics had been mailed there.

Why I don't use "POC" to refer to someone who isn't white.

It lumps thousands of cultures, races, heritage and history under one fucking label.

do you know how diverse black culture is? It can differ dramatically country to country, state to state, and even city to city. Hell in London alone, there are vast groups of people with African origin. Who identify with so many different cultures. To name two, Somali British and British Caribbean differ so much in their cultural practice. It’s just plain offensive to group them under the same label.

Don’t get me started on Latin American.. walk from Mexico to Argentina and tell me they don’t deserve individual recognition..

Aboriginal Australians?

Hell I’ll even get started on white culture..

Yeah it’s diluted in the states because your history is only hundreds of years old.

But fucking hell as a Celtic British person with vast heritage which expands into such a beautiful culture of tribalism and brotherhood. Stunning music, and historical Significance, I am deeply offended myself when I am grouped under this guise that there is no such thing as white culture..

I went to download festival in June. We met so many different people from different backgrounds. I was at one point. A Cornishman, Sat around a fire with a Scot, a Nord, And an Icelandic fellow. And the Icelandic fella sung us a traditional lullaby from his heritage. And it was moving.

So fuck off with your master labels and macro approach to ethnicity.

Pick up a book, go meet people, travel. Because sitting at home making judgements about other people’s cultures, is no less racist. Just because you call yourself a “POC”.

Your form of social justice does no justice to anyone.
