#BUT THEY DON'T CARE

[ydan-lover]

If I had to pick my favourite Bonnoki's illustrations, I'd probably go with the ones he made for Season 1's special booklets.

Not only they're quite minimalistic, which is probably the last word I would associate with Bonnoki's artstyle, but they also show us how different these two were before Ronald went to Draluc's castle, and I can't help but feel a bit sad by looking at them?

I know Bonnoki said that Draluc didn't really feel lonely during his time at the castle because he shared his company with John + Draus would often visit him, but I still feel bad for him. Like, he literally couldn't even go somewhere simply because he would literally turn to dust the moment he tried to open the door to his own castle. He was basically just trapped inside. And aside from the hot springs in the basement and some trap rooms that looked like they came straight from some game, his castle really didn't feel like it belonged to him, the hedonistic game-loving vampire.

As for Ronald, seeing him smokng feels so wrong (especially if you're an anime-only fan who have no idea that he used to smoke in the first chapters), as if he's not feeling well. No one is there greeting him, welcoming him home or just simply caring about him.

And so, we have two men silently looking at the same moon in the skies (let's pretend that's also what Ronald does after he lights up his cig): so far from each other, not knowing about their destined encounter later on.

And then, the last booklet for Season 1 shows us...

...how livelier and chaotic these two get when they're together! Their lives have truly changed for the better after their first encounter!

i love that ryan gosling and eva mendes work so hard to keep their daughters away from the public eye bc way too many celebrities and influencers are comfortable oversharing images of their kids

"I would never jeopardize the beans" pales in comparison to it's newest successor, "beans r not woke. How could u do this?"

I hate how people will look at popular indie artists who had one or two songs go viral on TikTok and start making fun of anybody who listens to them. "Oh you listen to Lemon Demon, Will Wood, Jack Stauber, Glass Animals, and Mother Mother? Tsk, don't you know that is stupid TikTok neurodivergent white transmasc preteen music? It's so mid and bad you should listen to real music–" you are a pit of misery

i feel like a lot of the 'i hate kids' crowd would be more tolerant if they understood that due to a kid's limited experience of the world that 4 hour flight might just be the longest they've ever had to sit still for or that trapped finger might literally be the most pain they've ever felt in their short life or they might not have ever seen a person with pink hair ever so of course they want to touch it or nobody's told them yet that they can't run around the museum and they only just learned cheetahs are the fastest animals so of course they want to put that to the test. how were they supposed to know etc etc.

I think this is just a trend everywhere but I've been very frustrated this week by how much admin work is being outsourced to me as the patient/customer.

My orthodontist tells me I can make an appointment with the surgeon. I call the surgeon. They tell me I need a new referral. I call the orthodontist. They do a referral. I call the surgeon. Referral didn't come through. They tell me about their special unique system we have to use. I call the ortho again and walk them through the referral. I call the surgeon. They say the referral was missing some details so they have to do it again. I call the ortho.

The insurance company calls me about repair shops. I give them the name of the repair shop which I already gave them yesterday. They say they're not in their system but I can use them, but I have to call the repair shop to ask them to contact the insurance company. I call the repair shop and they say the insurance company is supposed to email them.

I feel like at a certain point these constant fetch quests become unreasonable?? Is it too much to expect these groups to communicate with each other instead of making me run back and forth between them???

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.

I know this is a tiny part of the wider problems born of diet culture, fatphobia, classism, and racism but like god the idea that "healthy" food must inherently taste bad has completely ruined us as a society.
