I have at long last convinced one of my irl friends to listen to Rolling with Difficulty and…

I think it’s going well

This could be for either Octo 1 or 2 but would the groups play card games and who would get confused over what game they're playing? Like if one person is playing Go Fish but the other is playing Old Maid and the others thought they were playing Poker or something? Just something silly I thought would make you smile lol

Yeah….

(cw: plato's stepchildren noncon kissing)

thinking about this and how much I'd kill for (eventual mcspirk) established mckirk pre plato's stepchildren, and then THAT (it's fanart of spock and kirk clearly being forced to kiss by the platonians) happening in the episode. having LOTS of thoughts about that. having thoughts that I will eventually need to do something about tbh.

established mckirk and mccoy telling kirk & spock to leave him? established mckirk and mccoy watching the two of them refuse to leave and then being forced to kiss each other???? thinking about kirk feeling unreasonably guilty, like he cheated on mccoy, thinking about mccoy absolutely blaming himself, thinking about spock loathing the situation but rapidly and unwelcomely realizing that in a different situation - in a different situation entirely, he'd -

thinking about the tangled mess of guilt and absurd self-recriminations and thinking about mccoy saying he's a vulcan, you can't force emotion out of him, and thinking about spock brushing his thumb across his own lips, and wishing there was no emotion to force. wishing -

i am literally already working on a different plato's stepchildren fic, but oh, oh i hope i get a chance to eventually write this as well.

they beam back up and kirk wants that tactile reconnection with mccoy, but mccoy is afraid to touch him because it's his fault, and spock is pulling away from both of them and trying to rebuild his walls, and -

they're an absolute wreck, tbh. an absolute wreck!!!

Not one of my coworkers clearly trying to make me feel guilty because I got Taylor Swift tickets yesterday and she couldn’t get any for her and her 12 year old daughter and I’ve “seen her before”

And you know what, I’ll see her again. Best of luck in presale.

Been thinking about Golden Kamuy and all the people who are kinda pissed or disappointed Sugimoto didn't die and my two cents about it are:

1) It's not really about him. His purpose is to be an ignorant fuck so that the audience has a reason to learn about the ainu, and follow Asirpa along as she explains and guides us through their world and their struggles. If Sugimoto dies then it does become about him, and that defeats the purpose. We're not supposed to mourn the likeable young man left adrift by the war who tragically died in pursuit of a higher purpose. We're supposed to empatize with the fight of the native people fighting for the right to their very existence

2) Sugimoto's purpose is to be Asirpa's bodyguard, and that means he HAS to be immortal, because the world construed in GK is one where violence has very real consecuences. The teenage girl facing against war veterans and violent ex convicts, as the sole key to obtaining unimaginable riches, would NOT have a happy ending in that world unless she had a protector that broke the laws of the universe

2.1) The alternative would be that Asirpa somehow be able to protect herself and that would mean SHE became an unrealistically cool, capable, unkillable character, which also defeats the purpose. GK presents the Ainu with respect to their culture and their struggles. It does not present them as an over-romanticized version of themselves with barely any resemblance to the real people they actually are in exchange for cool points. They're not there to be an exotic and exiting new kind of shonen fighter. Sugimoto is the one shouldering the weight of unrealistic action sequences so that Asirpa can be a more accurate representation of realistic human beings with human problems and limitations

So basically, however much I like him, I think Sugimoto is less a human being than he is a plot device. Which coincidentally also builds up on his feelings of dehumanization due to what he went through on the war and his immortality itself

Yknow a really really fun thing. I started the business in 2019 so that makes 4 years and the end of year balance says I'll have a 5th. I'm one of 3 in my graduating class making a living in the field (2 more are hobbyists/side businesses) and the only one independent. I was also the only one in that class who got pulled aside and told I didnt have what it took to get the journeymanship and would never make it 🥰

I cannot believe Kanan and Hera never gave Ezra the Stranger Danger talk ??? Kid meets some creepy dude on The Evil Planet, immediately befriends him, goes with him to a second location and does everything he says, like I'm not here to judge your parenting style, but... you know what, never mind, I am.

Putting this out there for the TSP and IEYTD people (please let there be some):

Swap AU where Stanley/Narrator and Phoenix/Handler swap places. A mashup AU where Stanley is Agent Bucket or something. A different swap AU where the British Voices trade places for a bit.

What if Phoenix and Handler were in the Parable? Hell, why stop there, put Fabricator as the Curator and Zor as the Timekeeper and Prism as Mariella. Would Phoenix keep their TK implant? Would Stanley gain one? Who knows, let the shenanigans go wild.

What if Stanley and Narrator were spy and support agent together? Put the Bucket in as Zor. Do it. I dare you. it’d be funny
