It’s Sad That Toxic Game Culture Is So Prevalent Cuz Like. As Someone Who Has Ended Up In Random Matches

It’s sad that toxic game culture is so prevalent cuz like. As someone who has ended up in random matches with kids before, I can attest to how fucking easy it is to reverse and un-teach shitty attitudes in kids.

Example: I downloaded Friday the 13th because it’s free on psn. I dunno how to play, so I just enter quick play and I’m matched with 3-4 kids on mic. Immediately on mic they’re shitty and disparaging to each other. They laugh at each others deaths, they actively work against team mates and self sabotage, they call each other “fags”, etc. From the sounds of the voices they cannot be older than 13-14.

I put on my mic and just decide I ain’t havin it. I am nice. I thank them for barricading doors or leaving me items. When they break free from Jason’s grasp I say “good job!” or I try to help them. One kid survived for most of the match by himself. When he dies, I tell him he did a fantastic job.

The mood shift is practically INSTANT. These kids almost immediately stop being dick heads. They start encouraging each other and being kind. After the match all of them try to friend request me. Which should tell you a couple of things:

A) kids want to be kind, and they want to have a nice time playing games. But encounters with adults like me or so rare that they’ve trained themselves to instantly put on a toxic, shitty, defensive veneer when encountering any new person online. It’s literally just THAT EASY to not groom a horrible gaming community, it’s just that NO ONE does it.

B) the speed of which they all tried to friend me was cute, but paints for me such a sad picture? Like these kids are SO desperate to find people to play with who aren’t crappy jerks. They played with me for 10 minutes TOPS and all instantly tried to reach out to me.

tl;dr: The kids are alright. Adults are shit heads.

warrior penelope au but it's malewife odysseus YEARNING for his wife for 20 goddamn years... i draw him way too much in penny's own au but I LOVE HIM SO MUCH-

i have a link to the fic that i was inspired by : https://archiveofourown.org/series/4380808

long story short, odysseus got sent early off in war because of a mistake he and his crew made (letting their guards down) got to be with penelope for a bit, until she and other women had to be sent to war AGAIN, replacing ody and the men who were injured.. isn't that just fun? Odysseus got shot in the shoulder, hence why he has a scar.

him raising telemachus all alone oh God,,,

maybe in 'The Challenge' instead of weaving, he'd sculpt a statue of penelope to make the suitresses wait even longer, buying penelope time

[Seconds after Odysseus' and Penelope's loving embrace, having finally been reunited after almost 20 years]

Odysseus, panicking: Penelope! You’re bleeding!

Penelope, completely calm: Don’t worry love, it’s not my blood.

Me: *Removes my cat from my lap to do something else.*

My cat: Father is…evil? Father is unyielding? Father is incapable of love? I am running away. I am packing my little rucksack and going out to explore the world as a lone vagabond. I can no longer thrive in this household.

Ares: …….

Penelope: *her head buried in her hands.* Ares: so you like this guy?

Penelope: *Head still buried.* YESSSS!

Ares: and he likes you back?

Penelope: *Looks up at Ares.* yea. Are you rubbing in the fact you have a better love life than me?

Ares: no I’m trying to understand this. So you both like each other, and you decided to throw spears at him with notes attached that you thought were flirtatious but he took as just threats on your life? And what made you think throwing a spear at him with a note saying “one day you’ll be mine!” would be a good idea?

Penelope: your wife! She told me to be myself! So I was! And look how that worked out! I think someone should do her job for her!

Ares: first of all dont talk bad about my wife. Second of all, why not talk to him? That’s how me and Aphrodite got together(not to brag or anything).

Penelope: talk to him? But what if-

Ares: What if there are no more “what if”s?

Penelope: *sighs heavily.* as always old friend you are right. I must go and speak with the infamous: Odysseus.

Athena: I can't belive Odysseus didn't told me he was expecting a child. I trained him so hard and now his kid is unprotected and small : (

Dyonisus: *trying to help* Wait how small? Cause if it's hold in your arms small it actually just means Odysseus had it on his thigh.

Athena: *considering* He does have big thighs but I assumed it was cause of all the training.

Dyonisus: The training was helping make space for the baby : )

Athena: Oh! So it'll grow?

Dyonisus: Yup. 100%

Artemis: *goddess of childbirth, patron of midwifes, literally helped her mother deliver her brother seconds after she was born* What the fuck are you two saying?
