seven or eight times now ive watched the episodes in which they take the andromache and this is the first time ive realized that during the initial battle, after they board, every time the camera is from dufresne's perspective it's blurrier than otherwise because. he took his glasses off for the fight
#real velma hours#i have a soft spot for s1 dufresne that i dont have for s2 & 3#part of it is that jannes bore a passing resemblance to a longtime mutual of mine so i feel like im watching someone i know#the other part is . well its like andy whitfield versus liam whatsisface when they were on spartacus#i dont know for sure bc they passed and that's the reason their characters were recast. but the actors have a different energy#from seasons one to seasons two and three. and i really wonder what jannes would have brought to dufresne's betrayal#roland reed's take is extremely bitter and self-preservationist#but from what we did get of jannes' performance i imagine his version would've been more confused and fear-based. jaded/feral#and i always think it really wouldve been something#black sails#q#everything about this battle sequence is a masterpiece. from the shot of joshua getting his false fangs ready to put in#to mr beauclerc's pile of like a dozen muskets up in the crow's nest. because it's 1715 snipers can't reload . he has to shoot#a different gun every time#to the way most pirate media glosses over the minutia of battle or even priacy in general because it's about the vibe the aesthetic#but sails' piracy is a means to an end and so its pirates are just like. guys with jobs#the minutia of their battle sequences even in their comparatively less insightful first season are INCREDIBLe. like o'brien levels of detai#and the camera work in this sequence! even on my thirteen-inch laptop screen where my show is on a nine-inch window#i am right there in it i feel like im watching it in 3d

the intro of 360 by charli xcx playing in my head like a Pavlovian edit-fueled response whenever I read a comment on a gaming video that’s like “dan is such a brat”
#do i think they get on each others nerves sometimes? yeah#the phanniversary newlyweds video was one of the most fascinating insights we’ve gotten into their relationship dynamic as a whole#but despite the fact that humans have complex emotions and it’s very easy to get annoyed at someone you love esp when playing a game#or overstepping banter#i literally cannot think of a single time in a gaming video or on camera in general where it’s gone too far or they are actually bothered#by the way the other is acting/playing#obviously bc why would they show that but#other than in suuuper old videos(one in particular) with young energy and emotions bouncing around#they’re also always one step ahead of the game with the multiple times they’ve been like#oh before the comments go dans such a sore loser/winner phil always suggests all of nothing or x or y#it’s all banter people#i don’t know what point im trying to make here but they are really good communicators and have just spent such an incomparable amount#of time together#im always fascinated and choked up by the moments that they make it so clear they’re literally always going to choose each other#ANYWAYS.#yapping in the tags#dnp#dan and phil#phan

Bez krwi nie ma wampira. Jest to substancja, która decyduje o jego istnieniu, podobnie jak o istnieniu człowieka. Without blood there is no vampire. It is this substance which determines his existence, just as it does the existence of a human.
Maria Janion. "6. Krew i ciało," in Wampir: Biografia symboliczna. ("6. Blood and body," in Vampire: A Symbolic Biography.)
#also 'bez krwi nie ma wszak zabawy' :)#emiel regis#he's not even mentioned in the analysis from what ive read he's only in the excerpt from chrzest ognia at the end. but#1. this is a witcher blog 2. i post what i want 3. this belongs in his tag does it not#wampir biografia symboliczna#but i am liking what ive read of it (via google translate camera haha)#after hunting for regis' name i went back and just read like a normal person#i like reading the analysis of interview with the vampire because then i can glean insights without having to read it#(sorry all iwtv fans it's just not appealing to me but i know its part of ~the canon~ so i should but :p i haven't wanted to)#it's just like you know like lolita or american psycho where the point is 'the protagonist is absolutely a horrible person'#i never claimed to be a voracious reader i only ever claimed to be a witcher fan <3#speaking of though love that janion subtitled the ChO excerpt at the end 'rozmowa z wampirem'#funnily enough i learned the words wywiad and rozmowa from reading AS zone :p#like it's the interview with the...... i mean... a conversation with a... vampire#insert that tumblr post 'so did that vampire ever get the job or what'#with regis in baptism of fire... it's not an interview because no one even asked him#'we don't need your life story regis' 'i'm going to tell you my life story'#he traumadumps exactly like i would expect a middle aged man to

△ Would you die for Val?
Send me a △ and ask a really invasive question aimed at my character
9/10
"I wouldn't just fuckin' up and die fa the man, it ain't like that. But... I mean, he owns me. If he wanted ta kill me, he could. He doesn't cuz he needs me."
#angel aint about to say it and idk how much insight he even has to be aware of it but#val could absolutely convince angel to die for him#not out of love or self-sacrifice#at least not organic versions of those#but mannnnn. val could get angel to drink the kool aid#ic: cameras are rolling#asks#anon#meme answered#angel answers

i started playing irresistible mistakes again and now that i work as a marketing consultant i can feel myself screaming internally at some of the work problems this mc gets hung up on lmao
#personal#snow irl#hi im back#i'm reading tsujimoto minoru route and#i know it's a different market and all but the way theyre thinking about this film camera campaign is the exact opposite of what i would do#i hope part of the route narrative is them changing their strategic direction lmao#but the fact that they've decided on a strategy with no insights foundation is....!!!!!

btw i think that's something important ive learned over the last year of refining my creative practice -- that it's ok to drop shit that's not working. don't buy into the sunken cost fallacy. you have more than One Good Idea™️ in you so there's no need to be precious with every . little . thing
#like how Scott Christian Sava makes it a point to rip up paintings on camera he doesn't like after making them to show that the#importance of letting go / that nothing has been lost bc creativity isn't just about the end product but about the act of creation#yeah I spent a lot of time Highlighting my tcg books w a special color key and shit years ago but I can start over w new notes in my journa#Just like that! Nothing lost -- I actually gained something thru failure: insight on how to make the project better

I've seen discussions about Watcher pop up everywhere these past few days and it took me a while to realize what it even referred to cause I never watched the ghost hunting show, and I am still only working with context clues, really, but it always sounds to me like they want to create a new streaming service the same price as dropout for one show? Probably (hopefully) they have more shows, but that's the only one I as an outsider even know about, which is... a choice
But all I keep thinking is that they should have just made a kickstarter if they need a boost of money - right? Like, okay, so maybe their stuff costs more than is worth it with 'just' ads, patreon and merch, I get it, shooting a professional show is expensive. But like, just kickstart a new season. A lot of patreon supporters will still back the campaign, people who don't want monthly payments may be fine with a one time thing, and then when you put the season on youtube, you'll still get the ad revenue. And then you can have some kickstarter exclusive stuff, sure, but not put your entire catalogue behind a paywall. Especially building up a whole new site to host their stuff with accounts and payment processing and everything cannot be cheap in and of itself.
I'm guessing they already deterred too many of their fans from giving them money with their current plans for this to be feasible, but man
#probably would have also given them insight into how many people would actually be willing to give them money for exclusive content#dropout works because as many people have pointed out they still put a lot of stuff for free on youtube#they have a ton of shows to be worth a new subscription#and sam has been open in interviews about it being a huge gamble#they also work with so many different people that as a viewer i am happy to know money goes towards paying all of them#whereas if it's mostly the two of them in front of the camera#it feels like it's only giving money to them#which obviously isn't true#camera crew editing etc all require payment too#but it feels true

the thing about sports documentaries is that they have to appeal to such a broad mass of people. you need to have enough detailed insight that it feels worth it for fans who spend their every waking moment thinking about the sport/team/player while also being general enough that someone who doesn't know the first thing about the sport doesn't get so confused they turn off. and that's why i think they need 2 versions of any sports documentary. one where it's all surface level, here's the basic rules and people kind of documentary, and another where you get to hear the exact kind of bitchy gossip athletes are talking about while eating their lunch
#like if you did a spurs doc for this season idc about the general shit i want to be bts for emerson royal's music career#i want to see every song from concept to recording to music video shoot#i want to feel like im on location#i want an episode of just the ben davies book club#i want to know the groups when everyone sits for meals#i want to know the stupidest inside joke the club has ever had#i want to have a fly on the wall camera to experience someone like timo walking into spurs for the first time and having to awkwardly make#friends on that first day#i want to judge every meal they eat like im not the world's pickiest eater and should be banned from food opinions for all time#i want the players and clubs to have no control so i can see every bad ugly bit of the season and all the arguments and disagreements#so much wrong with the spurs doc we got but i want to see another sissoko is a big voice in the dressing room reaction#like that was TELEVISION!!! that was what i was there for!!!!!#that's the insight i want!!!!!!#i want to know everyone's spotify wrapped!!!!!!

Besk/Instance Lobocorp AU?
Instance drops into the first free chair she sees, legs still heavy under her and her eyes hurting from not blinking; the crown of eyes and thorns digging into her head hurts every time she so much as moves. "How was it?" asks Besk from her paperwork; that faintly glimmering shield that floating around her notices Instance's movement and slides between them as always, an ever-present barrier desperate to keep Besk safe in a world where no one ever is.
Instance only grunts in response; when Besk laughs, through the barrier separating them Instance can see only the faintest glimpses of her smile.
#i havent finished lobocorp so if u have and u read this and theres smth wrong close your eyes#anyways knight of despair + besk and then burrowing heaven + instance is a fun combo#i think besk is insight/attachment highest and then instance is instinct/justice wwwww#besk with any of hte magical girl abnormalities is fun tho. lol (thinking abt queen of hatred)#as for instance...... any of hte bloody/fucked up ones LOL#thinking abt the music machine the name i forget#burrowing heaven...... also hte fucked up camera one....... theres soem fun ones#oh i think besk + laetitia is fun too that was first draft of this wwww#anyways ty fo rthis lini. indulged pasta#asks#ask memes#how do you writing#restlessreveries#i was a teenage exocolonist#i was a teenage exocolonist spoilers ?

knitting tutorial made by a twenty-something knitting influencer: 18 min long, 12 of those minutes being the intro and a sponsor plug, they show the first few steps of the tutorial at the slowest speed known to man, they show the most important steps at a neck-break speed, they stop every five seconds to talk about what they just did, 40,000 comments filled with questions ranging from insightful to “how do i knit”, filmed with a camera that costs more than a car, the tutorial is incorrect.
knitting tutorial made by a seventy-something grandmother: two min long, filmed 17 years ago, shows you what you want with the skilled patient hands of a beloved deity, made with the world’s shittiest camera, the best video on the fucking internet, four comments and 30 views, you lose the video and never find it again.

Scientists torturing backronyms/acronyms happens a lot, actually (see my tags for examples)
Backronyms
Physicists suck at naming things (I can say this because I'm a MechE and I have had to deal with so many physicists), but occasionally they have a stroke of brilliance. Like, a friend of mine worked on a dark matter detector called DarkSide. That's so goofy that it wraps back around to good.
Anyway, there's this superconducting fusion reactor in france called WEST. It's notable for having first-wall shielding tiles (the innermost surface of the vacuum chamber, directly facing the fusion plasma) entirely made of tungsten.
There are a lot of materials used for plasma-facing components – tungsten, molybdenum, graphite, beryllium, various composites and combinations of the above – but it's pretty rare for a reactor to go full tungsten. It can take extremely high temperatures, but it's brittle and expensive, and "high-Z" (high molecular weight) impurities in the plasma cause their own issues. So, the main purpose of WEST is to investigate the viability of an all-tungsten first wall and divertor.
To that end, they tortured an acronym until they got it to work:
Tungsten Environment in Steady-state Tokamak
Or "WEST"

Get it?
GEW IW??
#let me name a few from mars-related things in order of least to most ridiculous:#one of the least bad ones: Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN (MAVEN)#INterior exploration using Seismic Investigations Geodesy and Heat Transport (InSight)#ESCApe and Plasma Acceleration and Dynamics Explorer (ESCAPADE) (they really used 67% of the whole word there huh)#MArs RadIation environment Experiment (MARIE) (radiation detector on Mars Odyssey)#TElescopic Nadir imager for GeOmOrphology (TENGOO) (a camera on MMX)#Mars-moon Exploration with GAmma rays and NEutrons (MEGANE) (spectrometer on MMX) (MMX team sure loves destroying backronyms)#Optical RadiOmeter composed of CHromatic Imagers (OROCHI) (could you guess it's MMX again?)#that's all I can find off the top of my head but here please be as tortured as I am about this#EDIT: I FORGOT TO MENTION SCHIAPARELLI LANDER'S OFFICIAL NAME#ExoMars EDM#EDM standing for EDL Demonstrator Module#EDL standing for Entry Descent and Landing#they shoved a whole-ass acronym in their acronym
