A Second Skywhale Has Hit The Signal Spires

from november 2024

you turn into L I G M A

this is what im choosing to do with my free time before i start my first job

ive seen people do a sort of "swap" au like this before so i wanted to do my version. worlds worst test subject

There's paint on the blueprint

I wanted to finish it more. What a bummer🥴

It seems so cold here now

im in disbelief at the fact that a lot of folks are simply over palestine. like protests are dwindling down. people are not very interested in news related to gaza. some are simply over it.

israel hasn't let aid in gaza in 70 days. gaza has been starving for 70 days. the condition of people there is horrendous.

i find it distressing to think about children in gaza. how does one continue to have a childhood in a genocide? they don't have school. they don't have safety. they don't have food.

despite all this, the kids will be alright. they'll be alright once the genocide stops and they get back to 'normal'. till then, can we please try to support them however we can?

this fundraiser (verified) helps feed a family which includes two young children. please consider helping their mother take care of them.

i also saw the ''scavs worshipping a bird'' comment and i imagine the idea is based off of the scavenger templars and disciples having birdlike masks. and a weaver is a species of bird. not quite 'worshipping' but since scavengers seem to seek out echoes i imagine it's something similar to that "ooh mysterious entity on a metaphysical plane above my comprehension. i have to be its follower" thing. Boxbird

The traces of that Void Weaver guy are fucking me up, because...

What do you mean there's apparently gonna be a Void deity-esque creature, that does something Creation/Repair-wise with the Void and it has feathers. Some guy in one youtube section said something about Scavs worshipping a bird and I have literally no idea where they got that from, but all this stuff just sets off monkey recognition.

He???

Really though, what I'm expecting is some kind of Quetzalcoatl creature but instead of a serpent it will be another worm. Videocult likes their worms [Void worms (Rot worm), grapple worms, water glow-worms, sand worms, the leviathans maybe from a certain angle, worm grass, the Void spawns/Ripple amoebas look like worms...] and the Ancients + some of their architecture/art reminds me of the Aztec aesthetic.

I expect the Weaver either won't verbally communicate with us or it will be incomprehensible similarly to Iterators before the mark of communication or something like the vibe of the Void worms. Maybe communication with it will be available upon reaching lvl 10 Ripple, which I'm pretty confident will definitely come by. Lvl 9 is weird.

And the uhhhhh...

So weaving is for making a fabric out of threads, right (fabric of reality ass set up). The general approach is that there are vertical threads that are strung on the loom & horizontal threads, which are the ones that are weaved inbetween the strung ones. The horizontal ones are called weft (or woof ha) and the vertical ones are called *warps*.

The most expectable reasons for the Void Weaver's existence is that it will stitch up the tears that the Watcher and Spinning Top made and that it's somehow responsible for the strand form of reality.

My takes are that 1.) the strands exist outside of it and it only utilizes them to create the fabric reality and the tears we create give us the chance to get a peek at it from behind the metaphorical curtain- aligns with the idea that it will stitch up our peeping holes or 2.) the tears/*warps* we create is what gives this thing the tools/space to start weaving *something*. Maybe a new direction? That new cycle Moon mentions? (actually upon checking, that's Downpour dialogue. that most likely doesn't apply here.)

That second one is definitely the more off the rocker idea, but hey. Versatility in thinking is hardly a bad thing.

You cannot look me in the eyes and tell me that does not look edible

It can go one of two ways- either it’s the most sweet, succulent, juicy fruit you’ve ever tasted, or it’s just big weirdly shaped millet.

I’m down either way

Have you ever just eaten plain millet it’s so good
