People please stop reblogging that post about that person who got ~fired~ after “working on akali for 9 months” it’s a straight up lie. Check out the real people behind the video, a french studio named Fortiche. Nothing in that post adds up. A lot of fortiche members actually have instagrams with the actual process, it was a contract so riot games had no one to “fire” since it wasn’t an in house job, and even if there was nobody would fire a person who could work ON THEIR OWN on a project like that (which is impossible btw.)
Please think before you reblog shit like that, it discredits every people fighting against exploitation in the video game industry. Just… stop. Inform yourselves.
So here are some precisions: some people said that the post was not about the video but rather about the rework. First of all, the mere fact that the original text is so vague is fishy in itself. Second, no one works on a character on their own. Coding, designing, animating… those things are made by TEAMS especially in big companies like riot.
Third: you can find the list of the people who designed akali’s rework and everyone is still working at riot. The closest thing I could find about this was some rumors that one of the designers left and it was for another company so the point remains the same. You need to make some research before endorsing a complete stranger who desactivated their account. Riot games has already enough problems that you can rant and talk about.
a girl i know told me how a guy she knows once moved out from his parents, ate nothing but fries and meatballs for HALF A YEAR, and got scurvy. imagine the doctor’s face when this guy shows up with like his gums bleeding and the doc has to fucking say DUDE…. THATS SCURVY…. in this day and age
this is turning into a “how a person i know got scurvy” thread and im so here for this, please share your scurvy stories if you have any
the other day someone posted pics from the reddit page r/zerocarbs where these fools only ate meat and 0 vegetables or fruits and all the posts were about various symptoms of scurvy. i died when one literally read ‘i don’t want to start the vitamin C debate again but’
THE VITAMIN C DEBATE
My mother told me all about scurvy when I was five and trying to resist eating pumpkin and let me tell you it’s been 35 years and I still get nervous if I go for two days without eating a green vegetable.
I told my own little picky eater about scurvy, rickets etc and now one of her most frequently requested lunch items is baby spinach, closely followed by carrots.
I’m not saying everyone should mildly traumatize their children to make them understand that vegetables are vital to ongoing possession of your teeth and organs, but.. no, that’s exactly what I’m saying. Go for it.
some guys i used to know went on a boys only road trip. they decided they were only going to eat things they could cook on the engine block of the car.
two of them got scurvy. one of them drank so much jagermeister + red bull that he temporarily lost the ability to see in colour.
by the way heres a better look at their little face
here are things to know about a tormtose beetle:
Smaller than a ladybug
Found everywhere but most people never notice them
Can change instantly from its gold colors to completely black or brown to confuse predators
Strong feet and domed shell allow it to hold tightly to a leaf when attacked by ants, who can’t get a grip on it.
The
larvae collect their own poop on the end of their tails and swing it at predators to deter them.
In some species the mother and her babies form this defensive arrangement together, with the poop clubs out and mom’s armored body protecting their heads:
I love Queen because half of their songs are mind-blowing pieces about life and death and love and humanity’s inability to live together without destroying ourselves, and the other half are like “I love my bike”
actually there’s a third kind and it’s called “I’m Freddie Mercury And There’s Nothing You Can Do To Stop Me”
the timing is perfect. i was just about to put the wembley stadium concert on, lol.
It’s like two people who don’t exist are interacting
this is a video of two people who accidentally find out that they’re both extraterrestrials after they realize they speak the same language unheard anywhere on earth and jimmy fallon realizes what is happening and he tries to put a stop to it because if the government finds out about it they’ll kill all three of them
