What's this blog for?
My goal is to follow the "Dracula Daily" tag for the year 2024 and reblog story-relevant art. This means I want it to turn out almost like a picture book -- where there's one tag for every Dracula Daily date, and you can look through the fanart for each date.
I will also gradually be reblogging art from the previous years (but keeping it spoiler-free!) You'll find the art for each year under the tags "2024", "2023" and "2022", as well as in their respective date tags.
Click here to go directly to a date:
Pre-story | May 3 | May 4 | May 5 | May 7 | May 8 | May 9 | May 11 | May 12 | May 15 | May 16 | May 18 | May 19 | May 24 | May 25 | May 26 | May 28 | May 31
June 5 | June 17 | June 18 | June 24 | June 25 | June 29 | June 30
July 1 | July 8 | July 18 | July 19 | July 20 | July 22 | July 24 | July 26 | July 27 | July 28 | July 29 | July 30
Aug 1 | Aug 2 | Aug 3 | Aug 4 | Aug 6 | Aug 8 | Aug 9 | Aug 10 | Aug 11 | Aug 12 | Aug 13 | Aug 14 | Aug 15 | Aug 17 | Aug 18 | Aug 19 | Aug 20 | Aug 21 | Aug 23 | Aug 24 | Aug 25 | Aug 30 | Aug 31

Oct 1 | Oct 2 | Oct 3 | Oct 4 | Oct 5 | Oct 6 | Oct 11 | Oct 15 | Oct 16 | The remaining date tags are IN THE REBLOGS of this post! I seem to have hit a link limit...
More Notes & FAQ unter the cut:
*Note: If you're listening to Re: Dracula, or reading the original book instead of the Dracula Daily e-mails, the events of September 21 are covered in the same entry as September 20! This is because Bram Stoker apparently overlooked that everything after Lucy's immediate death happens on the following day. The e-mails split events up as it should be, with two seperate days.
Reblog guidelines:
I try to keep it as story-relevant as possible.* This means that I won't reblog AU art, most character portraits with no further context, and similar things. Some of it may be a bit of a gray zone. For example: character portraits that feature a specific character who only appears in one or two entries, I will probably reblog for that entry. Character portraits of, let's say, Jonathan I won't reblog bc that's too unspecific, UNLESS there is something linking it - again - to a specific part of the book that's easy to pinpoint, like the very first days of his journey. *Note: "story-relevant" doesn't mean "100% text-accurate". Joke posts and art related more to the general impression of an entry that are not direct illustrations of a scene absolutely count!
Spoiler policy:
This blog will be spoiler-free for the 2024 season! Any art from the previous years that concerns a later date will only be posted when that date comes around. Please note: Sometimes a piece of art will allude to or foreshadow things that happen further on in the story, while definitely belonging to a date that has already happened! For these cases I will use the tag "spoilery content" - please blacklist that tag if you want to avoid possible spoilers completely! [Here's an example of what sort of things I'd consider to belong under that tag. Spoilery for Lucy's storyline so view under your own risk.]
What about things like collages, edits and moodboards?
I'm not opposed to reblogging them, too! They only need to be made specific enough so they can be attached to a specific entry. But since they're not my first priority when scanning the tags for pictures (my brain skips anything that's not a drawing almost on autopilot), I've likely missed them all. You're welcome to send something in that you think fits here!
#mod post#dracula daily#ALSO:#I live for the ''two cakes'' principle - I really appreciate every scene depiction I come across and believe they deserve to be seen#whether it's a little doodle or a full-blown i-sunk-30-hours-into-this artpiece#so that's sort of what this blog is for#but that said if you for any reason want you art off the blog please just shoot me a message and I'll do so!#AND as for the 22/23 art: I reblog what I find by looking through archive blogs that have reblogged a lot back then#no guarantees that i'll get all of even most of the art from prev years but I try. there's a LONG queue already

20 questions for fic writers
tagged by @mustlovesteve tysm!! i checked, and turns out i did this last november, too, so this will be a fun little comparison!
1. How many works do you have an AO3? 46!
2. What's your total AO3 word count? 512,645!!!!!
3. What fandoms do you write for?
main ones are dead boy detectives & stranger things (specifically steddie lbr) rn!
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
you looking at me, looking at you
run your fingers through my hair
you will never be unloved by me (you are too well tangled in my soul) -- i know this one is new!! dead boys ily.
eat me alive
when the party's over
5. Do you respond to comments?
yes! i try my very very best to respond to all of them, especially on newer fics. i usually fall behind on older fics/don't prioritize responding as much, but if there's one that is really kind/really touches me i always make a note to respond.
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
i've written a lot of depressing shit for the merlin fandom. i think winter always turns to spring might be one of the saddest all around, though.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
my hairdresser!steve fics are the happiest/fluffiest things i've ever written. but most of my fics have a happy ending! i think maybe memoria has one of the happiest tho?
8. Do you get hate on fics?
not really. i got One troll comment on a fic a few months ago that i just deleted and blocked lol.
9. Do you write smut?
every once in a while! i don't feel i'm very good at it, so it takes me a loooong time to write it when i do.
10. Do you write crossovers?
not in the traditional sense of combining fandoms, but if my btvs au counts as a crossover then yes?
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
not to my knowledge!
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
yes! winter always turns to spring was translated into portuguese!
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
no but i've thrown around the idea with friends before (pax....mona....if u see this....hiiiiiii)
14. What's your all time favorite ship?
this is such a rude question tbqh !!!!!!!!!!!!!! i'm going to default back and say merthur, because they were the one and only and a constant in my life for so long. (steddie and payneland make me so fucking crazy tho)
15. What's a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?
there is a steddie wip called "tightly hidden fists" i started in LITERALLY july 2022. it's still sitting in my google docs at 20k+ and i'm starting to doubt if i'll ever finish it. i keep considering signing up for a round of a steddie bang or something but i'm scared to do that to myself again lmfao.
16. What are your writing strengths?
i think i'm very good at dialogue, and getting The Voice of the character down. those things are usually what come to me first when i'm writing.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
for lack of a better word...filler? transitionary bits of fic. i overuse phrases/words like a madman, i also think i am a victim of trying to be too flowery when i can just, like, tone it the fuck down. are those weaknesses????
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic?
if it's easily translatable sentences (short and sweet, nothing too complicated) i put in the language in italics. (like, bonjour.) but frankly, i tend to avoid putting other languages in my fics. i don't often need to, and since i don't speak any language other than english i don't want to butcher anything if i can help it.
19. First fandom you wrote for?
probably the peter pan self insert i wrote many times between the ages of like 8-12.
20. Favorite fics you've written?
fields of gold mention. my love letter to bbcm. i'm also very proud of memoria, my 2023 steddie bang.
low pressure tags for @queerofthedagger @insane-ohwhyfandoms @wolfiery @babyseraphim

As part of my intensive dive into past Thai BLs for the Old GMMTV Challenge, a spirited conversation came up in the comments of my review of Love Sick/Love Sick 2 regarding if and how I should include a focus on ships in my watchlist. I haven't focused on specific ships yet -- I've been letting the historical/essential significance of the shows themselves, vis à vis the history of Thai BL, dictate the list I came up with (which I'll paste below).
@absolutebl has written, of course, a tremendous amount on the origins of the ships, especially the ones that really started the genre (KristSingto, OffGun, MaxTul, etc.), but one conversation that I wanted to highlight was whether or not Together With Me was worth watching. There seems to be a big divide regarding its toxicity vs. the importance of the birth of MaxTul as an essential couple/ship.
I wanted to lift this question out of the comments, actually, not *just* because of the MaxTul ship, but *also* because of the toxicity question. I'm not that afraid of shows with toxic factors -- I think they're fun to break down and write about, and to figure out how and why the shows were made in the first place (I'll note @so-much-yet-to-learn's INCREDIBLE comments in my Love Sick review about the nature of censorship in early Thai BLs and how that shaped the "gay for you" motif that I'm always obsessed with dissecting).
In other words: I have this feeling that some of these shows were toxic PRECISELY because of the time that they were made. We have great shows NOW -- did some shows HAVE to be toxic in order to be made back when?
Because I kinda want to play around with that question, I'm really thinking of adding Together With Me to my watchlist -- it would be in-between Make It Right and MIR 2.
But the feelings are really divided. @absolutebl, the friends in the comments (@manogirl, @clairificusrex, @aliceisathome, @nieves-de-sugui), and anyone else who wants to chime in -- what do y'all think -- watch it for the history? (@bengiyo, I know you recommend it for the Plern Pleng reference.) I'd be particularly curious for @absolutebl's thoughts on the inclusion of the ship perspective on my list -- because it's not one that I've thought about at all yet. (And I bet @bengiyo, @shortpplfedup, @lurkingshan, and others have thoughts on this, too). I've just allowed the shows on the list to introduce me to the ships, and not the other way around.
List below for thoughts. I'm adjusting it to include Together With Me for now -- the divide has got me VERY curious. I so appreciate the fam diving into this with me!
1) Love Sick and Love Sick 2 (2014 and 2015) (review here) 2) SOTUS (2016) (review here) 3) Make It Right (2016) 4) Together With Me (2016) 5) Make It Right 2 (2017) 6) Love By Chance (2018) 7) Kiss Me Again: PeteKao cuts (2018) 8) He’s Coming To Me (2019) 9) Dark Blue Kiss (2019) 10) TharnType (2019) 11) Theory of Love (2019) 12) Until We Meet Again (2019-2020) 13) 2gether (2020) 14) Still 2gether (2020) 15) I Told Sunset About You (2020) 16) A Tale of Thousand Stars (2021) (review here) 17) I Promised You the Moon (2021) 18) Not Me (2021-2022) 19) Bad Buddy (2021-2022) (thesis here) 20) KinnPorsche (2022) (tag here) 21) The Eclipse (2022) (tag here) 22) My School President (2022-2023)

Jupiter revisits Gemini - May 25th, 2024 until June 10th, 2025!
TLDR; Tricksters & energy vamps, dissonant contraction or harmonic expansion, Ceres, Taurus, Gemini, Mercury, 2011-2013, get journaling.
See if you notice repeating themes from the last time(s) this happened [recent Jupiter dates at end, for those of us who journal].
Taurus Jupiter has had us appreciating what we already have, yet we also had the tendency to dig in our heels at the idea that we could change things for the better during stressful situations. Ruled by Ceres, Taurus takes on Ceres traits within whichever house She’s in: adaptation and survival of humanity, all familial relationships, nurturing professions, agriculture & animal care. Those with Taurus or Jupiter chart prominent will have experienced specific changes in any of those areas during Jupiter in Taurus periods.
This is a good opportunity to review these life themes:
Experiences of luck, vs lack; synchronicity vs. perceived failure.
Gemini placement(s) or an “empty” house; patterns related to thoughts which lead to communications, short term travel, siblings, neighborhood(s), early education, overall life mindset.
Where are we going?
Optimistic growth through goal-definition & attitude of gratitude, manifested through the proper actions…
or…
…string of calamities or perceived calamities, wherein we have used our powers of communications and short term forms of travel such as seership abilities, to behave with lack of morality or indiscretion? Mercury, when not worked with consciously, has people building and maintaining energetic vampirism between groups of people, in tangled patterns of co-dependency.
The key is to examine the situation; is this dependency healthy, or toxic? Is it sustainable, or unsustainable? We must figure these things out, and practice clear communication with one another as we do so. Allow each person in a group dispute the time and consideration for full expression.
Important to remember: Geminis ruling planet is Mercury, and Mercury is known for good reason as the trickster & thief God. We can re-channel Geminis mental adventurousness in a properly productive direction, when we realize that we are actually thieving, or enabling thieving of our own life-forces, by staying in toss situations.
Are we tricking ourselves, and also being unfair to others in some way?
Can we find ways out of this destructive pattern, and into building new patterns, which can bring into our lives harmonic, and no longer dissonant expansion?
Those who don’t put in the time and effort on this, will expand in dissonance, while contracting their abilities to manifest harmonic luck.

11-12-23 Corpse Bride (2005) Really really good Tim Burton Halloween movie with so much stylization. So much fun to watch!!!! And so ethereal at times. MUST WATCH
11-12-23 Frankenweenie (2012) Very cute but disappointing ending, too safe. It could have been more impactful if they pushed it further. Watched this after corpse bride and the parallels were FUNNY.
11-18-23 The Wizard Of Oz (1939) (old rewatch). The real life abusive filming process makes this movie Hard to Enjoy with peace of mind- but the finished product is truly groundbreaking and whimsical
11-20-23 The Bourne Identity (2002) AWESOME THRILLER ACTION MOVIE EHEHE
11-21-23 Star Wars: A New Hope (1977) unpopular opinion - the movie suffers when you don’t see it in its original intended form (in a movie theater . In 1977.) I SWEAR. I STILL ENJOYED IT THOUGH. ….

12-1-23 Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009) another silly goofy little dysfunctional family unit, a bit yikes at some parts but overall pretty lighthearted. It was cool seeing this immediately after isle of dogs cuz you could see the inspiration in the visuals between the two
12-8-23 The Mitchell’s vs. The Machines (2021) silly robot apocalypse family road trip movie with AMAZING visuals (everyone in the family is autistic)
12-17-23 Prancer (1989) Unexpectedly heartwarming movie about a little girl helping an injured reindeer. VERY SWEET and great message about the impact of kindness and the wonders of being a child. MADE ME CRY.

12-19-23 The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992) (rewatch) classic muppet Christmas movie :)

12-23-23 Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer (1964) Mediocre writing and mean spirited at times <3 BUT ITS A CLASSIC. so ofc i liked it
12-24-23 Tangled (2010) (old rewatch) I forgot how good this movie was. ACTUALLY PEAK and so fun to revisit. Such a fresh take on a fairytale story, great songs, amazing romance, and also empowering about overcoming an abusive parent … MUST WATCH!!!
12-26-23 Klaus (2019) (rewatch) it’s so great to see a new 2D animated movie come out, and such a great story too. Cute origin story of Christmas and POSTAL WORKER APPRECIATION!!!!!
12-31-23 Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022) (rewatch) started off the year with this movie and then ended with it! What a treat!! I even wrote a short essay about it 1 semester ago :)
———————
In conclusion, I love movies !!! But my favorite movies are those that are confident in their identities and don’t hold back. Like share your message to the fullest !!!!
I watched a lot of stop-motion movies this year. I wanna watch more studio ghibli movies next year
And maybe I should purposefully try watching bad movies… it might make me appreciate good ones more and easier see what they do right. But also. I really dont wanna watch ralph breaks the internet.

1. Dune (2021) / Dune: Part Two (2024)
— i am obsessed with these films, from a plot/character perspective as well as a filmmaking perspective. watch these on the biggest screen you have available with the best sound systems if possible! it's visually stunning :))))
2. Midsommar (2019)
definitely check tw's on this one!!! ik not everyone likes horror but it's such a favorite of mine.

Once again, I think my art retrospective will require a post of its own, much like last year. (Hopefully by the time you read this, I will have edited this post to include a link, otherwise you can search for it in my blog if you’re curious.) It’s somewhat funny in that I didn’t really want to do one at first: namely because they’re time-consuming to write, and I thought I wouldn’t have much to say in the first place. But the more I think about it and with 2023 commemorating ten years of my online art profile, I feel like I’m honestly obligated to write down some sort of reflection--if not specifically for 2023, at least for the whole ten yards.
*Note: This is an acknowledgement that there exists one artwork I made this year, published under an alternative label/on an alternate blog, that got more notes than most of the art in this list. Had it been included in this Top Ten, it would had been #2, and everything else after #1 would had been shifted down one slot. Said artwork however does feature content I prefer not to post under this label/on this blog, which is why it’s not being included in this list.

Wellness Wednesday:
The Groundhog Day Diet
Sunday I officially started my Groundhog Day Diet (the same daily meal on repeat). Obviously the name of the diet stems from the 1993 Bill Murray film, but the month long challenge was more inspired by Morgan Spurlock's 2004 documentary, Super Size Me (a challenge to eat McDonald's for 30 days straight).
I settled on the following specific daily foods for the month:
Lunch:
Turkey & Swiss Sandwich, a Side of Baby Carrots, a Cup Peaches
Snack:
A Serving of Trail Mix
Supper:
Bowl of Soup and a Glass of Milk.
All ^that^ comes out to approximately 1,290 Calories.
Now, I didn't necessarily do this to keep better tabs on my calories - no - I merely did it to see if I could do it - or - better yet see how long before my tongue goes mad.
As well, I am hoping this "diet" will assist my pocketbook as I have planned out my meals, purchased a large majority of all my fixings, thus hopefully minimizing my grocery bill for the month of October. The only items I forsee having to purchase is fresh Turkey, Bread, Milk, and Carrots.
So far, 4 days in, things aren't too shabby. I wish I would have thrown in some popcorn to booster my snack intake... but... I'll know better for next time.

Feu's January 2023 BL/GL Wrap-Up
A little monthly (spoilery!) wrap-up of all the shows I’ve watched or am watching in January 2023, general thoughts, and ranking of them all.
Recommendation of the month:
Strangers From Hell! Soooooo good~
Ranking
Strangers From Hell
Midnight Motel
Choco Milk Shake = Roommates of Poongduck 304
The Director Who Buys Me Dinner = Girlfriend Project Day 1
Average Rating: 6.2/10
MDL Updates - Added to Watchlist:
A section because I’m curious about how many shows I decide to add to my Watch List a month and also the ratio of watching them:adding them.
Added a whole bunch of K-Dramas which seem to be thrillers/crime/horror genre and/or have bromance-y plots after watching Strangers From Hell
My School President
Till the World Ends
Midnight Motel
Strangers from Hell
The Devil Judge
Beyond Evil
Psychopath Diary
Mouse
The Merciless
Parasite
Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu (The Full-Time Wife Escapist) - From the Certified Noonas podcast; apparently this talks about how the housewife is being compensated for her work and backup plans etc
Happiness - zombies but there is also fake dating? or contract marriage? or something. I think Certified Noonas mentioned it
Go Back Couple - Certified Noonas mentioned it. kinda reminds me of 18 Again except both people who are about to divorced go back in time
The Uncanny Counter - Certified Noonas. This is an OCN drama I think? seems cool
lol I added so many this month, many of them non-bls (though a few are known for bromance vibes)
To Watch List At Start Of Month: 47
To Watch List At End Of Month: 49
Removed from To Watch List:
removing the first 3 are shows that I’ve been meaning to watch for a while but probably won’t actually ever get to (but if the mood really strikes, I’ll pick them up for sure because every time there’s an opportunity to watch them, I just make an excuse)
Until We Meet Again
You're My Sky
To My Star 2: Our Untold Stories
Flower of Evil - was considering watching this during my kdrama time but everyone seems to have complaints about the second half or last few eps and I can’t deal with that. Also saw a specific spoiler that I really hate so
Kei×Yaku: Abunai Aibou - it’s a bromance and people say the plot is weak. Think I’d rather watch higher quality bromance action/thriller shows
Love Class
Watching On-Air

Midnight Motel - non QL
Country: Thailand
Release Dates: Dec 28, 2022 - Jan 12, 2023
Watch Via: Youtube (free)
Watch Dates: Jan 11 - 14, 2023
Rating: 6.5/10
Overall Impression: The acting was great, the script was comprehensible and well-paced, the production is good, featured sex work without villainizing the workers or the work itself. I loved Mote’s little fantasies of possible scenarios or of imagining an interaction in a different way (the card game with June, convo with dead Pat). I’m impressed by the creative team behind it. I won’t think about this much after today I don’t think but I liked this little show.

The Director Who Buys Me Dinner
Country: South Korea
Release Dates: Dec 15, 2022 - Jan 12, 2023
Watch Via: iQiyi (free)
Watch Dates: Jan 18 - 19, 2023
Rating: 5.5/10
Overall Impression: I feel like this should be higher just because it’s got a cool concept and the cinematography’s good but I felt like maybe 1 emotion during this whole show (the hug in the car), which sucks. The writing in the show sucked, both in terms of relationship development (there was none. why were they from A to Z without B C...) and the fantasy/lore aspects. In a better show, Dongbaek’s dying wish to be the one who remembers next time coming true would be a punch to the gut but here, I don’t gaf
tags: the director who buys me dinner
I was wondering if I should watch Flower of Evil but because of the reasons mentioned above + he gets amnesia (?! agh), I’m removing it from my To Watch for now rip
I’m kinda in the mood for something longer and with darker tones though, so I’m looking at like Strangers from Hell, The Devil Judge, Beyond Evil which all seem to be horror or thrillers (and with BL undertones? I hear about Devil Judge a lot). I think I’ll watch Strangers From Hell cuz it’s like 10 1-hour long eps bc the others are 16 eps with 75 or 65 mins each ep.
Strangers from Hell - non QL
Country: South Korea
Release Dates: Aug 31, 2019 - Oct 6, 2019
Watch Via: :>
Watch Dates: Jan 19 - 23, 2023
Rating: 7.5/10
Overall Impression: The whole descent of Jongwoo was interesting to see, as well as how his environment and people around him made him who he is and what he had in him from previous experiences and by nature. The acting and cinematography/atmosphere were good. I liked the hallucinations/dreams (I loved it when I couldn't tell whether he really was breaking the keyboard until the CCTV showed it or whether he was beating up the supervisor until the others came in bc he had violent imagined scenarios so often) and I'm glad it was just 10 eps. I do like to think Moonjo's obsession was tinted with gayness. I like that he's dead but still alive through Jongwoo; that even if he was killed, he still won.

Girlfriend Project Day 1 - GL
Country: South Korea
Release Dates: Aug 19, 2022 - Sep 2, 2022
Watch Via: Youtube
Watch Dates: Jan 25, 2023
Rating: 5.5/10
Overall Impression: I watched this mostly with Korean subs (though I could also understand a bunch without the subs) with French ones underneath. It’s a good one to watch for learning/practice because the sentences were pretty easy to comprehend, even if I didn’t understand All of it. It was only 25 mins and so it was all very fast/shallow (it was cute so far) but I heard there’s gonna be a 2nd season, so maybe we’ll get more
Choco Milk Shake
Country: South Korea
Release Dates: Oct 25, 2022 - Dec 20, 2022
Watch Via: Youtube (free)
Watch Dates: Jan 26 - 29, 2023
Rating: 6.5/10 6/10 [Jan 25, 2024 Update: Decreased by 0.5 stars when rerating my top shows: 6.5 -> 6]
Overall Impression: Very cute and also had a fair bit of emotional moments, I liked it! Also got a fair amount of Korean practice out of it. However, it did take me 4 days to watch this though bc I kept watching only one or two of the short eps every day bc it didn’t have that pull of wanting to watch more. So it’s cute and well made the the actors for Choco and Milk did so well haha but I’m not super invested in the characters and probably won’t think about them much.

Roommates of Poongduck 304
Country: South Korea
Release Dates: Oct 13, 2022 - Nov 3, 2022
Watch Via: Viki (free)
Watch Dates: Jan 29 - 31, 2023
Rating: 6/10
Overall Impression: I wish I was in more of a romcom mood because this was really funny, more so than expected but I didn't really care about the romantic aspect and the last ep was so fast and squished. It was good but not great.

End of the year meme! Previous years include 2023 and 2022; other year in reviews for 2024 include Tumblr posts (mine), Tumblr posts (others), music, art, books, fic, and memes.
1. Song of the year?
I. Somehow managed to hyperfixate on Long Face. I haven't even seen the show yet. Runners-up to Rhythm of Life, You've Got The Love, RATATATA, Too Sweet, and a last-minute addition with YM32.
2. Album of the year?
GY!BE released a new album under my nose!
3. Favourite musical artist / group you started listening to this year?
Like, consistently? None come to mind, alas.
4. Movie of the year?
MONONOKE HOLY SHIT?? I saw the series fourteen years ago and suddenly here comes a movie and major lore drop???
5. TV show of the year?
Doctor Who had a really fun new season! Welcome aboard, Fifteen! Also, as always, Gardening Australia my (dorky, dirt-smeared) beloved.
6. Episode of TV or webisode that defined the year for you?
None actually stand out individually.
7. Favourite actor of the year?
Can I name the entire cast of BG3? Okay, just Neil Newbon, then. Ncuti Gatwa is also extremely high up there.
8. Game of the year?
Yeah it's still BG3, haha.
9. Best month for you this year?
October, I think! PAX was the goddamn best <3
10. Something that made you cry this year?
I'm a complete sook and cry at the drop of a hat, so let's say Karlach's post-Gortash scene. Twice.
11. Something you want to do again next year?
Go to PAX AUS! I had a goddamn blast and I think I'm going to be a regular :D
12. Talk about a new friend you made this year
You're all cool <3
13. How was your birthday this year?
Fab! The day itself was nice and chill, but two days later we went down to Sydney to see Jesus Christ Superstar at the Capitol, which was amazing!
14. Favourite book you read this year?
Toss-up between Light From Uncommon Stars by Ryka Aoki and Bury Your Gays by Chuck Tingle.
15. What's a bad habit you picked up this year?
Don't think I picked up any in particular. I did manage to cut down on finger-chewing, though!
16. Post a picture from the beginning of the year
21st January, one last visit to the Powerhouse before they irreversibly fuck it up.
17. Post a picture from the end of the year
13th December, the giant old stringybark in the Huon Valley.
18. A memorable meal this year?
Down at PAX, went to a really cool restaurant called Big Esso, which had a lot of fantastic Indigenous foods!
19. What're you excited about for next year?
Got some really fun things to look forward to! Probably the biggest ones will be PAX in October, and then in late November-December, we're going to Singapore, then cruising back! I'll be in Darwin on my birthday :D
20. What's something you learned this year?
Lots of writing craft things, especially for game writing at PAX!
21. What's something new about your place of residence (room, home, or general location) now vs the start of the year?
We finished the bathroom renovation (much needed, it hadn't been touched since the house was built nearly 40 years ago and was starting to leak) and I moved back upstairs, and we rearranged the living room.
22. Favourite place you visited this year?
Two very very different locations - PAX in Melbourne (like, with PAX specifically being the place, not Melbourne), and the absolutely gorgeous Huon Pine Walk in Tasmania a couple weeks ago (see 17!). Beautiful place <3
23. If you could send a message to yourself back on the first day of the year, what would it be?
Safta will be able to meet nibling before she passes. She won't know a huge deal about what's going on, but she'll be able to meet her first great-grandchild nonetheless, and it'll be comforting.
24. Did you keep any New Year's Resolutions?
Didn't make any!
25. Did you create any characters (in games, art, or writing) this year? Describe one
Reworked Tae into a standalone character, does that count? I'm gonna count it.
Happy new year <3

Couple of quick updates on the Old GMMTV Challenge!
1) I’m writing up my analysis of Together With Me, and I have WAY more thoughts than I expected. Review dropping Monday!
2) I made a chronological boo-boo in my watchlist, which I’ll explain on Monday -- I switched TwM and Make It Right 2 unintentionally. So I’m catching up on MIR2 as much as I can this weekend to get as much comparative material as possible for my TwM review.
But that being said, one thing I’d like to fact-check is the following:
I’m trying to figure out exactly where the PeteKao scenes from Kiss The Series and Kiss Me Again fall. I’m going to be watching the three PeteKao cuts from the GMMTV YT channel, but.... should I watch them altogether as one package? Or should I try to piece them together chronologically, from 2016 (Kiss The Series) through 2018 (Kiss Me Again)? I feel like I’m making this too complicated, and should just watch them all in one go -- but wondering if fam has opinions on this.
3) Speaking of opinions...
Part of my review of TwM talks about the context of what else was airing and had aired at the time of TwM’s airing. That’s kind of why I wanted to construct the watchlist (pasted below) the way that it is -- to get context from what I previously watched.
So I was digging through MDL to see what else was airing in 2017, and.... SOTUS S came up.
I had previously vowed to NOT watched SOTUS S because I feel like I’m still recovering from Krist’s acting in SOTUS. BUT:
I’m wondering if I need to a) get over myself, and b) watch SOTUS S specifically for the point of watching an early-ish BL that deals with an ongoing relationship, as opposed to a new relationship blossoming.
MIR2, at least in the early episodes, does NOT go there (yet), because of dang Jean and Fuse. Was SOTUS S the first big Thai BL that dealt with an ongoing, maturing relationship?
I’m having an ongoing conversation with @bengiyo and friends about the popularity of shows that depict growing relationships vs. brand-new love, and -- I think/wonder if including this theme on my list might be important. (Especially because I love this theme so damn much in What Did You Eat Yesterday?/Kinou Nani Tabeta.)
Thoughts on SOTUS S -- would love them if you have ‘em, family!
AS ALWAYS: THANKS FOR YOUR INPUT!
--
Watchlist!
1) Love Sick and Love Sick 2 (2014 and 2015) (review here) 2) SOTUS (2016) (review here) 3) Make It Right (2016) (review here) 4) Make It Right 2 (2017) 5) Together With Me (2017) 6) Love By Chance (2018) 7) Kiss Me Again: PeteKao cuts (2018) 8) He’s Coming To Me (2019) 9) Dark Blue Kiss (2019) 10) TharnType (2019) 11) Theory of Love (2019) 12) Dew the Movie (2019) (not an official part of the OGMMTVC watchlist, but I want to watch this in chronological order with everything else) 13) Until We Meet Again (2019-2020) 14) 2gether (2020) 15) Still 2gether (2020) 16) I Told Sunset About You (2020) 17) A Tale of Thousand Stars (2021) (review here) 18) I Promised You the Moon (2021) 19) Not Me (2021-2022) 20) Bad Buddy (2021-2022) (thesis here) 21) KinnPorsche (2022) (tag here) 22) The Eclipse (2022) (tag here) 23) My School President (2022-2023)

Nintendo Switch Online: Every NES, SNES, Game Boy, N64, Sega Genesis, And GBA Game
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/nintendo-switch-online-every-nes-snes-game-boy-n64-sega-genesis-and-gba-game/
Nintendo Switch Online: Every NES, SNES, Game Boy, N64, Sega Genesis, And GBA Game
Nintendo has been slowly beefing up its library of games available to Nintendo Switch Online and Expansion Pack subscribers.
What began as a library of just 20 NES games has grown to include dozens more. Plus, Nintendo has since introduced SNES, Nintendo 64, Game Boy, and even Sega Genesis games, giving players a chance to play some fan-favorite classics and some deep cuts, too. It’s hard to predict when new games might arrive as the company has maintained a somewhat inconsistent cadence in doing so, but that’s okay because this list is all you need.
As Nintendo adds new titles, we’ll be sure to update this list to include them. If you’re looking for something specific, use this story’s Table of Contents to jump to the different consoles quickly. Here’s every NES, SNES, Game Boy, N64, Genesis, and GBA game added to Nintendo Switch Online.
