"Take heart. Look around you. You're not in this fight alone. We face our enemy together, and together we *will* defeat them!"

And the worm is roaming the base, passing candy out! She is on a skateboard, zooming around. Oh shit! She’s got full sized candy bars!

She will kick your ass

Who knows. She’s having fun.

That would be Josie…

We have every reason to feel down lately. It may feel like the shit keeps piling on. When you feel it's all too much, just remember the wisdom imparted to us by our Mass Effect friends. In the words of the great Garrus Vakarian: Remember to stay hydrated. In the words of the wise Kasumi Goto: It could be worse. It could be filled with rats.

The queen herself

Shepard riling Miranda up just as a ploy to get Miranda to kiss her is everything to me #MassEffect

How powerful is Commander Shepard, really? Let's look at the evidence: - Became an N7 before Mass Effect even begins - Elysium: single handedly held off a pirate army during the Skyllian Blitz - Torfan: led the assault that wiped out the remaining slavers - dealing a phycological blow the Batarians never recover from - Akuze: sole survivor of a thresher maw attack that killed 50 marines - Became humanity's first Spectre - Defeated Saren and his Reaper enhanced form - Helped destroy Sovereign - Died... then came back with a cybernetically reconstructed body - Can reinforce their bones until they're "almost unbreakable" - Can augment their muscles and skin with synthetic fibres - Killed a thresher maw on foot - something not done in generations - Went punch for punch with the Shadow Broker, a massive Yahg - Can compete with Garrus in marksmanship - Crossed the Omega-4 Relay and can complete the Suicide Mission without losing a single squadmate - Destroyed the Collectors and their Human Reaper - Resist's contant Reaper indoctrination attempts - Can survive every wave protecting Object Rho until the artifact itself incapacitates them - Wakes up and immediately tears through Project Base completely alone - Broke the Armax Arena scoreboard with 9,999+ points alone - A TEAM of krogan battlemasters had tried and failed - Survived Fatal Error when the Arena's safety systems failed and it tries to kill them - Defeated their own clone - Helped kill a Reaper on Tuchanka - Stood in front of a Reaper Destroyer on Rannoch, avoided its attacks, and directed the fleet's fire onto it - Can end 300 years of war between the geth and quarians - Can unite krogan, turians, quarians, geth, humans, asari and salarians against a common enemy - Can convince Saren to kill himself - Can convince the Illusive Man to do the same - Resisted Leviathan's attempt to dominate them and convinced the Leviathans to join the war - Leviathan concludes Shepard's victories are "more than a product of chance" - Became such a threat that the Reapers knew Shepard personally "Harbinger speaks of you." And ultimately... - Did what countless civilizations across countless cycles couldn't. Shepard broke the Reaper Cycle. So, how powerful is Commander Shepard? Full breakdown: youtu.be/LwVcYcRKYCQ This took a hell of a lot of effort to make so I really do appreciate the love.
