I’m Kind Of Obsessed With Shadow’s Inhibitor Rings. Like He’s Connected To So Much Raw Power That

i wasn't planning to be this invested in the whole marina autism thing, but. here we are.

as someone who's also some flavor of neurodivergent, it's actually disturbing to me how so many of yall are reducing her down to the most stereotypical autistic babygirl traits. and when there's more to it, or these just don't apply, respond like we're attacking her pure childlike image with our edgy headcanons or something.

the sentiment of "there's nothing deep about it, she's just autistic and it makes her quirky and clueless" i've often seen whenever her past, her culture, or her accomplishments come up, is... kinda concerning. and it's gotten plenty more common.

can't we collectively not be ableist, and understand that the fictional octopus woman is a whole complex grown adult with skeletons in her closet, and not an angelically innocent baby untainted by worldly filth? or does the word "autism" need to be removed from some people's vocabularies, at least in association with the word "baby".

BUT WE AINT OUT OF OPTIONS‼️‼️

EXCELLENT NEWS EVERYONE

I am a huge fan of biology (even if still new to it), and despite all the jokes people make, nobody's very far off on the Rot- and I'm amazed that even in-game evidence points to it too.

Finally done with the animations.. expect a release soon

A little something for Linguistics Tumblr.

So the Crunchyroll newsroom isn't a "room" so much as a Slack channel. We have news writers all over the US, in Australia, and in Japan. This means we have something akin to 'round-the-clock coverage, but it also means that our schedules respective to each other are skewed. For example, when the East Coast contingent is starting their day, the Japan contingent is shutting down for the evening.

Because of that, we started experimenting with greetings that could apply when Party A was coming in for the morning and Party B was leaving for the night. One person came up with "konbarning": a combination of "good morning" and "konban wa" ("good evening" in Japanese). It stuck.

Over the following months, "konbarning" got shortened to "barning" and other permutations. Now, a year or some later, this is how we announce our arrival:

there is something seriously wrong with me (<- got hit full-force by a sudden obsession with silly little stick figures)
