crutal:



friendly reminder that since it’s getting hot out, people of all sizes and genders can wear whatever they want to keep themselves cool and comfortable, and you are, under no circumstances, allowed to shame them or sexualize them for it.




Bless.

- I’ve never understood this taste for otkazat’sya. Is it because you thought you were one of them for so long?
- I had a taste for you, once. - His head snapped up. He hadn’t expected that. Saints, it was satisfying. Ruin and Rising, Leigh Bardugo.

The Grisha Trilogy Challenge: Team Nikolai


I’m 100% team Mal, but Nikolai is my second choice.


“Watch yourself, Nikolai,” Mal said softly. “Princes bleed just like other men.”
Nikolai plucked an invisible piece of dust from his sleeve. “Yes,” he said. “They just do it in better clothes.”



Beautiful. And yes, yes they do.

“Yuyeh sesh,” Tolya called after her in Shu.


“Ni weh sesh,” she shouted over her shoulder. And then she was gone.

Players will control young female protagonist Nuna and her arctic fox as they try to rescue her homeland from an endless blizzard. Upper One calls itself the first indigenous-owned video game developer and publisher in the U.S. and Never Alone's inspiration comes from the centuries-old stories and folklore of the Iñupiat people native to the region. Priced at $15, it comes out this fall for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.



This game makes me so happy. This is what indie developers have an opportunity to create and what, in all likelihood, AAA companies will be forever blind to. Keep an eye on this one, guys it looks brilliant



This is EVERYTHING



Awe-inspiring! I am really looking forward to experiencing this game and the stories it has woven into it. I’ll take more things being made like this in the world, please!
