Happy N7 Day!!!!

This is a silly idea I had that I'm so happy came into fruition. Shepard is one of my favourite video game characters of all time, and what I love even more is that you can make Shepard into anything you want them to be, so I wanted to show a lot of them. There are 43 custom Shepards featured in this video, and I want to thank everyone who allowed me to use their Shep! I hope you all enjoy :)

Original song and MV: アカリがやってきたぞっ (Akari Has Arrived!) by GYARI

Featuring the following Shepards in no particular order (under the cut):

The pokemon fandom has got to have some of the strongest "the average person probably only knows the formulas for olivine" I have ever personally witnessed.

The worst part about the 6-7 meme is that you basically start seeing 67 everywhere. This is 42 all over again for me

Analyzing the politics of a work that's meant to be apolitical is actually a really interesting exercise because it asks you to critically examine what the creator considers to be "political" in the first place. Which ideas are just How Things Are, and which ones are Political, and how is that influenced by the creator's beliefs?

Usually this just ends up with you looking like a moron btw

Angrily lashing out at the suggestion that it's possible to do basic media analysis was foundational to the ragebait ecosystem of the 2010s, from which we got basically the entire culture of modern far right politics, btw.

I genuinely believe myself and others are being so sincere and literal when we say TOUCH GRASS

I went outside and got an education, that's where I learned that you can obtain knowledge and insight through analytical methods, then noticed that some people who sit on the internet yelling at strangers get really mad about that constantly.
