rating bowsers based on how pointy he is

super mario bros 1 and 3 bowsers:

super mario bros one bowser is much more pointy than super mario bros 3 bowser. you can see his shell is a bit more almond shaped, whereas mario bros 3 bowser is more of the round, stout and lovable one you recognize today. both of them are quite sharp though as attributed to their pixel art styles, i can imagine touching them feels about as pleasant as stepping on a lego.

mario bros 1 bowser pointy rating: 8/10

mario bros 3 bowser pointy rating: 7/10

super mario world bowser:

this man is positively sharp!! absolutely nasty and pointy looking!! his front tusks are much more defined than in previous iterations of bowsers, and his shell spikes are a bit more clustered as compared to the more spaced apart look in the previous sprites. all the more concentrated to land attacks on his hated nemesis mario with

pointy rating: 9/10 - would be a 10/10, if not for the roundness of his koopa clown car contrasting his pointyness

super mario 64 bowser:

just LOOK AT THE SPIKES ON THIS BIG BOY!!!! these pointy polygons!!! i feel like if i held hands with this bowser, he would surely cut my hand off!!! that would not stop me though

pointy rating: 12/10

paper mario bowser:

OHHHWHWHHH LOOK AT THE LITTLE GUY….I WANNA PINCH HIS SOFT LITTLE CHEEKS!! LOOK AT HIS FUZZY WUZZY TUFT OF HAIR!! even the pointy parts of this man are rounded…

pointy rating: 0/10

super mario sunshine bowser:

this bowser is quite smooth, one of the smoothest iterations for its time. not only is he physically rounder, but thanks to the story aspect of sunshine we also get to see a tender side of him emotionally as a father figure to junior. he is still one of my all time favorite bowsers. an absolute sweetie pie and a loving father…

pointy rating: 2/10

super mario galaxy bowser:

this is the render you think of when you think of bowser. he looks like he is trying very hard to be intimidating but i am not fooled by his facade. i would absolutely cuddle this man

pointy rating: 5/10

concept art bowser:

hrhhrhhgohgogoooghhh….hehrhrhhHRHRHRHRHRHGHHHHHHHHHHH………HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH…………AAAAAHUUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH…….

pointy rating: -12/10

If the anime characters I'm attracted to were real they'd fuck me I know they would I just know it

The cordyceps ‘vaccine’ in the Last of Us is bullcrap

I know this is just a game and maybe the science and medical advancement in the game is different from the real world, but if we apply what we know in real life about infectious diseases and preventative medicine in real life, the Fireflies probably wouldn’t be able to make a ‘vaccine’ and would have killed Ellie and destroyed the possibility of a cure for nothing. Here’s why:

1. In the real world, we do not have vaccines for fungal infection. Firstly, because fungal infection are super rare and mostly only affect those with compromised immunity. Secondly, anti-fungal medications are usually very effective against fungal infection so the medical field was never pushed to develop a vaccine for any fungal infections. I’m not saying that developing a vaccine for fungal diseases is impossible, but right now we don’t have any successful fungal vaccine and I highly doubt that in a post-apocalyptic world, this ONE doctor with insufficient equipment would be able to make a vaccine out of Ellie’s sample.

2. A vaccine prevents someone from developing disease after contracting the pathogen, it has no effect on people who already contracted the fungus and developed disease. So it is not a ‘cure’.

3. To make a vaccine, you use a weakened version of the pathogen, or a similar pathogen that does not cause disease in your target species. If they want to make a vaccine for the cordyceps fungus, they could have easily used fungal sample from the infected and engineer a vaccine from it. They didn’t have to kill Ellie for it.

4. In the game, Ellie was unconscious before she entered the Fireflies hospital and remained unconscious throughout the entire time she was there. So, either all the tests and decisions happened in a very short time or they kept her under with anaesthetic drugs. But since Joel was there as well and he woke up to them telling him they are going to kill Ellie, I would say they made a decision to kill ellie in a very short time. The problem is, they only had her for such a short time and they obviously have not studied Ellie before they got her, how in the world could they possibly figure out what makes Ellie immune so quickly?!

5. In the game, they claimed that the reason Ellie is immune is because the fungus has mutated inside of her. But really, there is no way the doctor would know the fungus has mutated unless he got a sample of the fungus. In the game it looked like all they have was an MRI scan. Just using imaging is NOT sufficient to identify a mutation, you would need to look at the sample microscopically and DNA test it. If that doctor somehow got his hand on some of the fungal samples from Ellie and found a mutation, why would he need to cut her brain open? That make absolutely no sense?!

6. They can’t prove the reason that Ellie is immune due to a mutated fungus. To prove the theory, they would need to inoculate the mutated pathogen in a test subject (usually would start with a petri dish of target cells, and then a lab animal) and look for changes. They obviously haven’t done it so how can they be so sure about this and would bet the life of a teenage girl on it?

7. To make a cure, killing Ellie is the VERY LAST thing they should do. Hell, it shouldn’t even be on a list. If they want to make a cure, the VERY FIRST thing they should have done is take her blood and test her plasma. The plasma of our blood contains antibodies, the thing that fights off infections. If I’m the doctor/scientist, knowing Ellie is immune, her plasma is the first thing that I would look at. Because if someone is immune to a disease, that means their body has developed effective antibodies against said infection, and these antibodies will remain in their circulation for some time, and even if the level isn’t enough, upon reintroduction of the pathogen, her antibodies level would skyrocket. Using her plasma, they can potentially treat people after they have been exposed to the fungus. But yea, her plasma would be the cure so killing her is stupid.

8. In this vast population of humans, it is highly impossible that Ellie is the only one who is immune.

I know this is just a game but I’m way too emotionally invested in this. And the fact that they made it sounds like Abby’s father was going to develop a cure and that he is a saint, is absolute bullcrap. He was going to kill an innocent girl and the last hope for a cure for NOTHING. Joel did the right thing by saving her.

i came out as trans to my mom last night/this morning and it did… NOT go well. so i might be extra hard to reach for a bit and take a step back from here for my own mental health. i’ve been reduced to having to lock myself in my sister’s room for my own safety and things just… aren’t looking too good

im glad my sister was actually pretty damn great about my trans Coming Out earlier yesterday, but being trapped in a house with a deadbeat transphobic mother that refuses to understand or give a shit + throw violent fits and starts screaming at me for being in emotional distress isn’t something i think i can handle the wound is too fresh. i am hurting. and a lot of shit is unbearable because of it

my room doesn’t have a door. i do not feel safe here when my mother is here, but i have nowhere else to go. i hope yall can understand and i am deeply sorry for taking a while w/commissions. life has just been one hard hit after another.

Edit: IF YOU’D LIKE TO DONATE FUNDS TOWARDS A BINDER, OR ANYTHING AT ALL, YOU CAN SEND $$$ [HERE]

I AM ALSO SELLING  OLD OCs [HERE]. PLEASE DM ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ANY

I do not have any means of taking more commissions, as my physical health has been rapidly declining due to a number of close calls, emergencies, and handful of trips to the ER, so any donations at all would help out immensely. 

UPDATE: Bills, medication, and groceries have taken up all of my funds and then some, so any bit of donation thrown my way would help immensely !!

I appreciate all the boosts and donations to a binder so very much and was able to get one thankfully before the wave of bills hit ; v ; but now im in a bit of a rough spot. Again donations can be sent [HERE] and the link to the OCs being sold up above has been updated! Soon it will include old fantrolls, which will hopefully sell better

terfs arent allowed to play minecraft or terraria
