Ok so I was curious about that fucking deathtrap and I noticed a couple… oddities.

A promotional image of the OceanGate Titan submersible. It is a white cylindrical machine with a single domed window on the front and a conical tail.ALT

Alright so this thing is pretty stupid; I’m not at all familiar with submersible vessels, But it activated a sleeper gene in my skull from my time being obsessed with a certain video game.

So I decided to check the promotional page for the contraption.

A screenshot from the oceangate webpage promotional blurb regarding the titan. It reads:  Titan 5-Person Submersible | 4,000 Meters "Titan" is a Cyclops-class manned submersible designed to take five people to depths of 4,000 meters (13,123 feet) for site survey and inspection, research and data collection, film and media [...]ALT
A screenshot from the OceanGate webpage promotional blurb regarding the titan. It reads:  Development and Innovation Project Cyclops  Project Cyclops was born out of OceanGate’s appreciation for the complexity of subsea environments and the need for a diverse set of tools and technology to address operational requirements below 500 meters. Through strategic partnerships, OceanGate applies the latest [...]ALT

(I’m going to put aside the second image, where they state the previous shit they hammered out had a 500 meter depth limit tops (i.e. that they, at best, made something that could get to 500 meters then decided that meant they could handle making something that could handle 8 times that). Thinking about the fact they brag about this so brazenly hurts my head. Back to the topic at hand.)

Ok so google shows “cyclops class” is not. a thing that exists. But it sure is funny they keep saying that word. Again maybe it’s just my stupid video game brain but that doesn’t seem to be used in this context anywhere else. Then I saw the renders.

A 3D render image of the OceanGate Titan submersible. It is similar to the finished machine. The most noticeable changes are that the domed port being painted to resemble the cornea of a human eye (with the porthole being positioned as its pupil) and the text on it reads "OceanGate Cyclops 2"ALT
A 3D render image of the OceanGate Titan submersible. It is similar to the finished machine. The most noteworthy change is the full-glass front dome, in contrast to the single porthole mounted at the front of the actual ship.ALT

Ok the newer one on the left really loves that “single eye” thing and looks silly enough, but the older one is…. ok. I give up. That’s Subnautica. That’s Subnautica For Real.

A screenshot of the Cyclops submarine from the video game Subnautica. It is a white metal tube with a domed glass bubble at the front which serves as a viewport and a conical tail.ALT

They built their goddamn suicide death trap based on a submarine in a videoed game.

A screenshot of two Tumblr comments from user @mallk-z. The first one reads: "Other way around. Subnautica credits ocean gate for letting them model the cyclops after their subs", the second one reads: "You can even see a little blurb in the end credits of the game if you wanna check it out for yourself"ALT

No Fucking way. There’s no fucking way. There’s no fucking chance that–

A screenshot of the credits from the game Subnautica. One of the lines reads: "CYCLOPS® is a registered trademark of OceanGate, Inc. and is used under license."ALT

I’m speechless.

If you follow Selmers to the poetry society meeting in Night In The Woods, this is her poem.

I loved it and the themes of the game, and wanted to use it as practice to see if i can control the way readers ‘hear’ the words through images.

My favourite thing about both Nimona and Spiderverse is that when they say a character is PUNK they MEAN IT. The people who wrote this story MEAN IT when they say punk because these characters are loving, kind, selfless and want to help others while also totally ready to do a murder

Anyway I think Nimona and Hobie Brown would be best friends
