꧁𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜꧂

- 𝐕𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝗼𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐞𝐚: the ability to summon an extinct, magic creature of the sea: the Jet Dragon Horse. Suchol can command the horse at will whether to attack or to use it as a means of transportation, both on land and sea.

- Suchol can breathe underwater.

꧁𝐅𝐮𝐧 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝗼𝐮𝐭 𝐒𝐮𝐜𝐡𝗼𝐥꧂

- Suchol’s first name “Sucholatee” means beautiful sea and his last name “Thipchalalai” means the angel’s ocean✨

- Suchol is based off of another famous literature piece (famous as in it has been in plays for countless of times- like Romeo and Juliet💀) called Phra Apai Manee (พระอภัยมณี) and he’s based on a character named Sudsakorn! The story is a bout Sudsakon, a half mer half human boy, goes on a journey to find his father.

- Spoiler alert: tbh his father is lowley a piece of shit based on what I remember😭 He has a lot of wives (at that time having many wives is a power status, and he’s a king) and he fell in love with a mermaid who is Sudsakorn’s mother. THEN HE LEAVES SO THAT’S WHY SUDSAKORN GREW UP TO LOOK FOR HIM. The dad’s also the protagonist of the story (his name is on the title) but I’m purely writing this out of memory because so many things happened in the story and I have to go reread it again. The dad left for some “duties” but got a new wife along the journey like bruh🗿

- Back to Suchol though, his horse Nhil (or should I say his unique magic👀) is based off of the horse dragon in the literature piece! The horse dragon is a wild animal, and its strength even rivals yakshas. But Sudsakorn decided that no☝️you are my friend and I will treat you like you’re some stray cat on the street☝️ and that’s how Sudsakorn got his mount HSJDJUJSUJDU

- To elaborate further on his Unique magic, it’s kind of like Kalim’s magic carpet. The magic carpet is a replica of the original one, and Suchol’s horse dragon ability is a replica of the extinct animal🫶✨

꧁𝐀𝐛𝗼𝐮𝐭 𝐒𝐮𝐜𝐡𝗼𝐥꧂

- Sucholatee Thipchalalai or Suchol for short, is an aspiring and dutiful young half-mer of Royal sword Academy- sorry that was a lie, he’s actually a trouble maker. Don’t let his pretty face fool you!

- Oh, he’d stir up trouble and pranks everywhere. Like dude, how’d you get here in this academy of all places?? You sure you’re not from NRC? You didn’t snuck in here did you?

- Aside from his infamous tricks and such at the academy, he’s quite a sweetheart to his family; his single mother who is a mermaid, and his surrogate father who is an old man next door.

- Growing up on an island with fairytales and stories being told to him constantly, he grew up to believe it is all true. That is to say, he’s the type to believe that Santa Claus is real (and he still does please don’t break the news to him🙏)

- Suchol was a young prodigy due to the mysterious ways his surrogate father taught him magic. It ranges from animal linguistics to ancient magic! That said, he doesn’t find a need to study and still gets good grades. Lucky bastard🙄 /lh

- The general rule of hanging out with Suchol is to NEVER mention Charin. Ever. Not because he hates the yaksha, it’s more like Suchol sees him as his idol. Charin was the older brother Suchol never had. The red eye shadow he wears is proof that he wants to grow up to be just like Charin!

- Suchol is the type of guy who says the most mind boggling, crazy, unbelievable thing ever but it turns out to be true.

- “My dad is a king from a far away land!” Yeah sure buddy 🤥 (it’s actually true)

- But hey, being a bad boy and a trickster aside, having a friend like Suchol is like a breath of fresh air. He’ll drag you to fun fairs and games, making sure you having the time of your life is his priority.

- One of his best qualities (maybe the only one /j im kidding) is honesty. Suchol finds it difficult to lie. While he wouldn’t be blunt about it (*cough* Mathura *cough*), he still makes sure to be honest without hurting anyone’s feelings.

- So what do you say? You don’t wanna miss out on one of the best rides of your life, right? Suchol can’t wait to show off his new friend his legendary horse!

*jet in this case refers to the gemstone

*picture of the dragon horse since I’m too lazy to draw it (the horse has shining black scales that looks like the jet gemstone)

“PS. Invite Charin if you can!” <- his words not mine.

Leverano: Roy Paci apre la 17esima edizione di "Birra e Sound Festival Internazionale della Birra".

Leverano (LE): Roy Paci apre la 17esima edizione di "Birra e Sound Festival Internazionale della Birra". Birra e Sound nasce e cresce in una comunità come quella di Leverano antesignana dell'accoglienza come integrazione reale e multirazziale dove convivono popolazioni di etnia diversa che si ritrovano sorelle, mutuali, complementari. “Le diversità sono l'anima pulsante del vasto arcobaleno dell'edizione 2023 di Birra e Sound, perché è solo attraverso la diversità che si allargano gli orizzonti e si abbattono i confini, e attraverso i colori delle differenze che si può nutrire il proprio io, giorno dopo giorno”, spiega Fernando Zecca, dalla cabina di regia. Per ogni sera due concerti gratuiti, come nella formula storica del festival, su due diversi palchi, con la direzione artistica di Gianluca Ziza di Radio Ciccio Riccio. Ad aprire le danze dal palco centrale, domani sera, sarà Roy Paci, il trombettista, cantante, compositore e produttore discografico italiano originario della Sicilia e legato al Salento, con Aretuska per la patchanka italiana. Sul palco pineta invece Raffaella Tutta Scena, Diplomatico e Il Collettivo Ninco Nanco. Il calendario di spettacoli di quest'anno “è nato come al solito in collaborazione con Fernando Zecca – le parole di Gianluca Ziza -, è una sinergia di gusti, di tendenze, di scelte fatte da entrambi e abbiamo messo a punto il calendario più ambizioso cui abbiamo mai messo mano perché abbiamo degli artisti all'interno di tutta la rassegna dei 7 giorni che normalmente avremmo utilizzato solo per aprire la prima serata”. Su 25mila metri quadri luci con le luminarie a tema di De Cagna Luminarie, profumi, sapori, che quest’anno celebra la socialità a tutti i livelli, la bellezza dello stare insieme, a colori! Sarà inoltre possibile saltare la fila per accedere alle aree beer e food, prenotando direttamente il ticket accedendo al sito web. Tantissime le bontà da mangiare, in arrivo da tutta Italia, con attenzione anche a intolleranze, celiachia, priposte vegan e vegetariane. Disponibili inoltre tre ticket-tipo: Gastronomia, Gastronomia SUPER e Gastronomia MAXI. Oltre 200 tipi di birre in arrivo da ogni parte del mondo con un’area dedicata alle artigianali grazie alla presenza del Consorzio di Promozione e Tutela Birra Artigianale Italiana Da Filiera Agricola nell'area pineta. Un’intera area dedicata, circa 25 i birrifici artigianali agricoli presenti con i loro nettari. Si tratta di realtà che producono da sé le materie prime quali orzo e luppolo, da utilizzare per creazioni uniche nel loro genere, punte di diamante dell’universo brassicolo. Spiccano le produzioni di Birra Salento, il birrificio artigianale tra i più grandi d’Italia che ha sede proprio a Leverano. Grande novità, un’area rialzata fronte palco principale riservata alla ristorazione su prenotazione con menù consigliati e pret à manger. Saranno 7 gli street artist che si alterneranno ogni sera e si esibiranno in live painting all'interno di aree dedicate del festival, tutti volti e nomi noti del progetto 167b, che porta colore e ponti che abbattono muri. Con noi si alterneranno • Chekos’art (stencil, murales) • Davide DPA (calligrafia, poesia di strada) • Simon De Filippi (illustrazione, murales) • Frank Lucignolo (illustrazione, murales ) • Sandro Crash (figurativo, murales ) • Gabriele Gabo (graffiti) • PAT (live painting, murales) • Castromassi Crew ( graffiti) • Neea & Bros (Live Painting Experience.) • Massimo Pasca (live painting) • Cheone (pittura 3d) Gli straordinari artisti di 167/b Street si esibiranno in 7 diverse zone del festival, portando con sé progetti artistici sorprendenti e stimolanti. Ogni zona avrà la sua firma unica, garantendo una scoperta continua e una meraviglia visiva senza fine. Guidato dall'artista fondatore Chekos art e Anna Kitlas, il laboratorio 167/b Street è diventato un autentico motore di ricerca e sperimentazione dell'arte urbana, trovando ispirazione nelle fessure e negli intonaci della vita quotidiana. Attraverso collaborazioni con artisti, operatori culturali e collettivi, il laboratorio ha ridefinito il concetto di abitare e ha dato nuova vita ai luoghi in cui opera, utilizzando spazi e linguaggi innovativi. Con progetti straordinari come "167 Art Project", in cui hanno collaborato con street artist di fama internazionale per trasformare facciate di case popolari nel quartiere 167 B, questi artisti danno vita a spazi condivisi vibranti e dinamici, rendendo ogni intervento un'esperienza coinvolgente. Per questa nuova edizione Luca Casto “Fakiro” porta a BeS il cast artistico sarà variegato e frizzante tra giocolieri, acrobati, performance visive, trampolieri, sputafuoco e non mancheranno poesia e magia. Spettacoli mozzafiato che lasceranno senza parole, incredibili giochi di fuoco e travestimenti colorati. Basta sfogliare il carosello per conoscere alcuni degli artisti presenti, attraverso i canali social e la cartellonistica in loco. Occorre cercare il simbolo dei giocolieri nella mappa e vai a visitare un'area incredibilmente indimenticabile.... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article

#Uncool500 - the big list (middle bit)

Follow-up to (the bottom bit) and before (the top end)

This is from the #Uncool50 music biography I did in October and November. Contest sponsor @nonoxcol@twitter.com has compiled a full #Uncool500 from our nominations.

Each nomination was worth 10 points, but we could each nominate four singles for 11 points, and one song for 12 points. (“Since yesterday” was my 12-pointer, the 11s went to “Constant craving”, “You oughta know”, “The middle”, “Bulletproof”.)

Ties are broken in a lot of ways. It’s all inspired by “This is Uncool”, a handbook of great singles from the last quarter of the 20th century. Anything in that book gravitated to the top of the tie; anything from this century followed, and songs from the 20th century and not in the book came further down.

Acts that had a lot of songs nominated went ahead of acts with just the one big hit. Where a player had nominated the same act three or more times, the singles they'd nominated got relegated to the bottom of the tie - this happened to REM and Duran Duran.

This section covers songs with 4 or 5 nominations, positions 226 to 109.

40 points 226 Dr. Mabuse - Propaganda 225 Baker Street - Gerry Rafferty 224 Let the music play - Shannon 223 Pacific - 808 State 222 Kids in America - Kim Wilde 221 Automatic - The Pointer Sisters 220 Spacer - Sheila & B Devotion 219 Hurt - Johnny Cash 218 World in motion... - Englandneworder 217 Let's dance - David Bowie 216 Sowing the seeds of love - Tears For Fears 215 Under pressure - Queen 214 Running up that hill - Kate Bush 213 3am eternal (live at the SSL) - The KLF 212 Living in another world - Talk Talk 211 Pale shelter - Tears For Fears 210 A town called Malice / Precious - The Jam 209 It's my life - Talk Talk 208 This must be the place (naive melody) - Talking Heads 207 Shout - Tears For Fears 206 Big Decision - That Petrol Emotion 205 World shut your mouth - Julian Cope 204 Everlong - Foo Fighters 203 Uptown funk - Mark Ronson ft Bruno Mars 202 Connection - Elastica 201 Fell in love with a girl - White Stripes 200 All my friends - LCD Soundsystem 199 Tender - Blur 198 I travel - Simple Minds 197 Got to give it up - Marvin Gaye 196 Insomina - Faithless 195 Spellbound - Siouxsie and the Banshees 194 Stan - Eminem 193 Hounds of love - Kate Bush 192 It's a sin - Pet Shop Boys 191 What difference does it make? - The Smiths 190 Kiss - Prince and the Revolution 189 White lines (don't don't do it) - Grandmaster and Melle Mel 188 Don't you want me - Human League 187 Regulate - Warren G ft Nate Dogg 186 Rapper's delight - Sugarhill Gang 185 Push it - Salt n Pepa 184 September - Earth, Wind and Fire 183 WFL (Wrote for luck) - Happy Mondays 182 Live forever - Oasis 181 Step on - Happy Mondays 180 Gigantic - Pixies 179 Losing my religion - REM

Sperone167: bringing Italy’s pastoral margins closer towards the center.

Once the calling card of urban centers around the globe, street art continues to proliferate more remote reaches of society as spray paint loses still more of its stigma and new communities crave placemaking of their own. “Most cultural and social actions take place in the historical city centres, pushing suburbs even more to the margin,” states the press release for Sperone167, a new public art…

Side note ~ HAH, cliffhanger everywhere 😩

After 158 hours, 169 levels, 167 bosses, and a curse upon future generations, I’ve finally finished my first journey in Elden Ring, so I’m gonna write a bit about that.

I started out with the firm goal of beating absolutely every boss and dungeon in the game, and for the first three or four areas, that was still a fun task I had given myself. The scenery and enemies were new, fun, interesting, grotesque and beautiful, the fashion was impeccable and impeccably horrid, however I liked it, and I loved that. Spells were phenomenal, combat felt great, the NPCs were endearing and hateable. I chose the Dung Eater’s ending, purely because that man’s hatred was a spectacle I wished to see through.

The part where I complain and still compliment:

Before long, relatively, I saw that the grand scale of Elden Ring is also its great flaw; most delves lack the finesse of the legacy dungeons, whose winding streets and roofs amaze with cleverly hidden secrets. I fought about 6 or 7 Crucible Knights, 9 Night Riders, 8 Deathbirds, 8 Godskins, ~8 Erdtree Avatars, ~6 Tree Spirits and so on. A boss is the pinnacle of an area, a master of battle, yet they lack individuality and meaning in most places.

It is, of course, entirely understandable that a huge world has to be filled, so these minor enemies might not be fun after the third one, but they don’t offend. Major bosses however are robbed of impact when all but ~8 of them return for a second or third round. There is discernible intent behind some reappearing bosses, story and lore reasons, and that is fine, occasionally fun to figure out. But even the most intriguing and meaningful idea can suffer from a lack of satisfaction, when grandeur is blemished by repetition.

Cycles are a natural part in FromSoft games and I love playing them again and again, and I believe a key part of why it doesn’t work well in ER is because of the mindset I entered. Throughout all these hours, it was still my first playthrough, one continuous story and experience that went forward and forward. It resulted in a disconnect whenever I entered a fantastical new setting, but experienced what I already knew within.

Two dungeons in the game deceive you with loops, the corridors are deliberately the exact same with minor changes in enemy placement and such. This confusion succeeds because it is compact, surprising, and feels complete. Bosses fail to achieve this.

I expected almost every boss to be recycled before I even reached Altus, and it was not the expectation of good build up, of excitement and thrill, it was resigned knowledge. A few new moves still managed to deliver fun experiences, but they were as tarnished as I was.

It is not feasible to create a world of this size and fill it with quality. Large parts of ER are filled with nothing, or nothing of interest. The side dungeons and ruins lack a narrative beyond “post-apocalypse”. Items are given out to balance power creep or to put anything at the end of a cave, yet this mass contains too little information about the smaller pieces of the Lands Between, its citizens and niche places. In short, ER is too concerned with the grand.

Grand fields, grand numbers, grand amounts of everything. Grand stories and purposes are far from antithetical for these games, but the greater something is, the closer you can look at the empty spots.

To finish it off, I kept a record of how many times I died to each boss and Malenia obviously took the throne. Few bosses came close to the deaths I regularly experienced in previous games, for which I pat myself on the back and also squint at ER.

[makeste]

Who is the bitch in the first year hero courses most down for murder, do you think? Surprisingly, despite being the only one to actually MAKE death threats, I'm mot sure Bakugou is all that high up there? When you've got Todo freezing people from the inside out, Mushroom Girl choking people, Honenuki drowning people and dropping industrial chimneys on them etc etc... What would your rankings be?

what better way to spend a Sunday evening than by ranking all of U.A.’s first-year students by murder.

disclaimer: I am doing this for fun and this entire post is ridiculous so please do not take it too seriously. also just a heads up, this post contains some recent manga spoilers as well as a couple of spoilers for Heroes Rising. now then, let’s quantify these bloodthirsty little savages.

okay so despite being entirely too plus ultra for their own good, approximately 99% of these kids would never dream of doing any kind of permanent harm to another living being. so I’m just listing the first thirty in no particular order, and then we’ll get to ranking the top ten.

Aoyama

despite having that brief moment in chapter 167 where virtually everyone thought he was a serial killer, Aoyama is actually a good boy. a bit stalkerish, maybe.

Mina

Mina did dream up that one attack where Ochako floats her up in the air so that she can rain acid down on people, which is slightly homicidal. but she’s not a killer. honestly if she was we’d all be dead already. see: thicc Girl Noumu.

Tsuyu

if Tsuyu had ever killed someone she would have already told everyone all about it because she is open about these things so safe to say she is not a killer.

Ochako

all Ochako wants to do is help and support people. she can be pretty hardcore from time to time but my baby girl would never. not to say that villain wouldn’t be a good look on her. I still get a shiver up my spine remembering that one time Toga turned into her and demonstrated exactly how deadly her quirk could be.

Ojiro

nah. the worst thing Ojiro has ever done was throwing his empty plain yogurt cup into the wrong recycling bin by accident, and he felt terrible about it afterward.

Kaminari

real talk, Kaminari could very easily kill a ton of people with his quirk if he actually tried. but he hasn’t, because he is only two and is too busy learning his shapes and colors and leaving his lego duplo blocks all over the carpet for other people to trip on.

Kirishima

do I even have to justify this at all. duh Kirishima doesn’t murder people sorry to anyone who came into this post all excited to read a big paragraph going off about Kiri’s raw bloodlust. I don’t know what you expected.

Kouda

Kouda is probably deadlier than everyone thinks. imagine him commanding, say, a mob of giant hornets to swarm and kill someone. it’s a good thing he wouldn’t actually hurt a fly.

Satou

I sat here for a while thinking about what I could say about Satou. but just. can you picture him killing a guy? nah, me neither.

Shouji

one of the things I like about Shouji is that he looks older than he is, and kind of creepy, what with the masked face and the freaky tentacle arms and all the like. and so he very likely experienced some of that good old fashioned quirk racism growing up, and people were afraid of him and/or thought he would become a villain. but instead he decided to become a hero. and I think that says so much about Shouji’s character. it reminds me a lot of Shinsou; his desire to become a hero was so strong that he overcame prejudice and circumstances which could just have easily have led to him becoming a villain (and in fact, it’s not all that different from some of the actual villain backstories). anyway so yeah no murder for him.

Jirou

I think she would consider killing anyone who ever hurt Momo or Kami, but aside from that NO because she is a good pure girl who loves music and rocking out and putting smiles on people’s faces.

Sero

poor Sero is so not-murdery that when he does get pitted against someone with more murdery energy such as Todoroki, he basically gets immediately overwhelmed and everyone is just kind of wincing and then timidly applauding him and saying “good try.” that’s Sero’s life. he would just sit there and get murdered rather than going in for the kill. he’s a good bro.

Mineta

needs several restraining orders filed against him, but wouldn’t actually kill someone.

Momo

well one time she did explode a grenade in Aizawa’s face. but no.

Awase

now we have come to the 1-B kids. I will give brief descriptions in case you, like me, sometimes have trouble remembering their names. so, Awase! the welding, Momo-rescuing one. he is not murdery.

Sen

the rotating limbs one. one of the least murdery kids in the fairly murderous 1-B on account of his quirk is just too ridiculous. sorry Sen.

Kuroiro

the Tokoyami one. more likely to bore you to tears talking about death than actually kill someone. which is too bad because he honestly would make a pretty bitching assassin.

Kendou

would say she’s probably in the top fifteen. god I love her quirk so much. just want her to slap some bitches to death. but she probably wouldn’t.

Shishida

the growly monster one. he does get some bonus points for tending to lose control once he goes full beastmode and werewolfs out. and he is fairly deadly.

Shouda

the roly poly double smashy one. it’s actually only a matter of time before Shouda kills someone, most likely. his quirk is way too dangerous, and the thing is, it’s probably hard for him to tell how dangerous a particular impact is going to be beforehand. one of these days it’s gonna be way stronger than he intends and somebody’s neck is gonna get snapped.

Pony

never forget that time Pony stabbed Ojiro and Shouji like a dozen times and everybody was just cool with it.

Tsuburaba

the air platform one. he did try to suffocate Kouda that one time.

Tetsutetsu

only if he’s fighting Shouto. or teamed up with Shouto. then all bets are off as to whether or not he’s going to drill his superheated steel fist right through somebody’s face.

Tokage

the severed limbs one. she just has kind of a murdery vibe to her. stalking everyone with her various body parts. yuuugh. I bet if she did kill someone nobody would ever be able to prove it was her.

Manga

the speech bubble head one. is going to destroy so much public and private property once he’s set loose on the streets. but no deaths.

Bondo

the glue one. and nah, Bondo is cool.

Koudai

the Ant-Man one. doesn’t strike me as particularly murderous, I even went and reread her part of the joint training arc to confirm it. she’s fine.

Rin

the kung fu dragon one. not especially murdery. overall probably one of the least bloodthirsty in class 1-B in fact.

Shiozaki

the vines one. she’s extremely murdery. I can’t be the only one who thinks that, can I? Shiozaki scares the shit out of me. if I were Kaminari I would have nightmares about her.

Monoma

would murder every single member of class 1-A if he could. would be the criminal in a Detective Conan two-parter. would give a long monologue about always being the side character and never in the starring role until one day he finally couldn’t take it anymore and snapped. why does his hero costume make it look as though he’s going to steal a bunch of famous jewels out from under everyone’s noses. nah but I’m just kidding and Monoma would never actually kill someone. but one day he’s probably going to be framed for murder by a villain and Kendou and Shinsou will have to team up to defend him and catch the real culprit.

10. Yanagi

the creepy pale ghost-girl-looking one. contrary to what you are probably all thinking, her high ranking isn’t just because of her general horror film vibe, but also because she attempted to bludgeon Mina to death during the joint battle arc. but also yes it is because of her general horror film vibe.

9. Kamakiri

the stabby one. he’s up here because I’m pretty sure he tried to kill Jirou that one time. like what was he even gonna do if Bakugou hadn’t stepped in. though to be fair I don’t think he actually had his knives out at the time so maybe he was just gonna elbow her in the face or something idk.

8. Bakugou

I agree with you that Bakugou is much more bark than bite, anon. and not only is he remarkably careful and precise with his quirk and good at avoiding any collateral damage (and even better IMO ever since his supplementary training), I think that due to his various struggles with being perceived as a villain and also trying to find his own understanding of what being a hero means, he’s probably more self-aware than most of the other kids at this point when it comes to matters of “is this morally okay.” so in spite of his generally violent demeanor, I very much doubt he ever would or could actually kill someone. but he’s in the top ten because his high shounen protagonist levels do place him in the “would potentially go apeshit if and when something happened to someone he cares about” category, though. and also because he and Deku did basically attempt to disintegrate Nine, and then when Nine just dropped off the face of the earth afterwards, no one even bothered to wonder what had happened to him. which leads me to wonder if Deku and Katsuki straight up assume they did in fact kill him and just dgaf.

7. Deku

see above re: Nine. and also he may have to kill AFO one day. so while he probably wouldn’t be happy about it, I think he could still potentially do it. and also because he absolutely does lose his gotdamn mind every time someone hurts one of his friends, and especially Kacchan, and I could picture him just snapping if something really awful ever actually did happen. I don’t think it would in canon because it’s just way too dark, but I don’t think it’d be out of character if he did.

6. Iida

literally tracked down the villain who attacked his brother with the full intent of personally killing said villain once he got his hands on him. true, Shouto and Deku talked him out of it in the end, but still. that was some real motherfucking killing intent. also I will never forget the image of this kid sitting his ass down in middle of the woods and mutilating his own goddamn body without any anesthesia. listen, everyone. just please, for your own safety, do not fuck with Iida.

5. Shouto

and now we reach the top five. listen, feel free to disagree, but I stand firm in my belief that out of all the non-traitor and non-demon-possessed children in class 1-A, Todoroki Shouto is absolutely the most likely to straight up just kill a bitch one day. this boy froze a man from the inside out until a tower of fucking ice was jutting out of his fucking throat, and was all “go ahead and hibernate for a while” like excuse me, THE FUCK. and the thing is, this wasn’t just a one-time occurrence either; he literally pulls this kind of shit ALL THE TIME. froze an entire fucking building with his classmates in it and was all “feel free to bring it on but fighting without the soles of your feet will be painful.” heh. what the fuck. and do you all remember when he fought Sero and was in a bad mood so he iced half the fucking stadium. nearly killed a few people right then and there. “I got carried away.” whaaaaaaat. and I could go on and on; he nearly burned poor Shindou alive, and basically the entirety of chapter 205 could have been submitted as evidence in a court of law had that training battle against Tetsutetsu gone only slightly differently. basically Shouto is an entirely too realistic portrayal of a very sweet but marginally unstable boy with a completely broken power and a shitload of unresolved personal trauma which he is still working through.

4. Honenuki

somehow more murdery than Todoroki “HIBERNATE!!” Shouto. this is entirely because of chapter 205, formerly the most murdery chapter of the entire series, and dethroned only by the recent chapter 266 for obvious reasons. anyway so during the joint training battle, Honenuki bludgeoned Todoroki in the back of the head and would probably have let his unconscious body slump into the softened ground to drown had Iida not saved him. he then proceeded to drop a water tower on top of the both of them. a whole-ass water tower. this was a fucking training exercise. and Honenuki was the only one who kept his calm throughout the entirely of said exercise. and he was praised for his calm murdering skills afterward. because he was fucking awesome tbh. anyway but the point is this is supposed to be a hero school not an assassin school but I’m not really sure anymore you guys.

3. Tokoyami

my man would have straight up killed Moonfish in that forest and sure did try his best. he’s got the same issue as Todoroki in that his quirk is as powerful as it is unstable. and while he himself is not murdery, when Dark Shadow loses control, though… hooooh boy. I was gonna add something about him also interning under Takami “literally stabbed my friend in the neck for the greater good” Keigo, but I think that makes them both come off as more sinister than they actually are. I do think a big part of Tokoyami’s story is him overcoming his inner darkness and wresting control of it and mastering it, so I don’t think it’s very likely that he actually will kill someone in the story. but he’s got a murdery side, no two ways about it.

2. Toadette

straight up filled Tokoyami’s windpipe with mushrooms during a training exercise. he uses that to breathe, fyi. she then offered him a lozenge afterward. do not fuck with Toadette. do not. just don’t.

1. Hagakure

last but not least! Hagakure “hasn’t killed anyone officially but is also definitely the traitor” Tooru! y’all know how it is! I’m committed to this theory! I’d even be willing to put money on a reveal scene where she does just straight up kill someone, and that’s our cliffhanger establishing that the traitor is none other than! and this is coming up sooner than you might think too, guys. Horikoshi brought up the traitor again relatively recently during the Christmas Eve chapter, and that kind of foreshadowing isn’t for nothing. anyways I’m here for it though so bring on that body count you funky little turncoat.

so there you have it. my not-that-definitive definitive ranking of classes 1-A and 1-B by murderous inclination. there’s really not that much rhyme or reason to it tbh but this was fun, thank you anon!

1000 Albums, 2020: The Big Lists

Hey folks, I’ve written up my top albums and my top tracks of 2020, but there’s so much music released in a year, and restricting myself to just 30 albums, and 50 tracks is a difficult task.

As a result, I’ve compiled a longer list of my top tracks and albums (without write-ups), for your perusal. This is obviously more for the sake of completeness, but are here in case you’re interested in finding out if I at all rated something you liked this year (or, if you’re Sam, if you want to actually do a detailed comparison).

Want playlists? I’ve got playlists for you too:

My Top 50 Countdown - which I posted yesterday. This provides a sorted countdown of my top tracks from #1 to #50. (50 tracks)

My Top Tracks - a longer list of all the tracks I really rated highly this year. This accounts for a much larger number of artists, and includes most of the tracks I’ve listed below. (169 tracks)

My Top Tracks & Albums - a playlist containing all my top tracks, plus selections from all of my favourite albums of the year. (216 tracks)

My Top Tracks, Albums + Much, Much More - Are you game? Contains a huge, varied collection of music that we listened to this year. I really enjoyed all these tracks, and they provide a much broader collection of albums, artists and genres. (1,014 tracks)
