If you have only watched the Ouran High School Host Club anime I really cannot recommend reading the manga enough. There is (at least) twice as much plot as the anime has and it delivers so much more character and relationship development for every club member. You deserve to see more of them!

the fool 🤝 jin guangyao being easily the most dynamic and compelling characters in their respective canons, likely for reasons that were substantially if not entirely unintentional on the part of their respective authors

real-life activism is so much more enjoyable than internet activism btw. if you’ve only ever engaged in political/social activism online, i really recommend trying to find a real organization and getting involved in-person if you can

Book Review 💖🔪
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Firstly, the title … I originally thought this was going to be a witty, self-help book of sorts for dealing with difficult family members (which is sort of true I guess haha.) Finding out it was a fiction, I knew I HAD to get around to reading this! Definitely an eye catching title!
The mixed reviews make sense. There’s parts which I really loved, others not so much. For context, I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump and it was really refreshing to switch it up from the usual fantasy. Dark comedy feels very British and who doesn’t love a morally grey character?
As a TV series, I actually think if it was produced in a style similar to The Flight Attendant it would work really well! Finding that balance between being comedic, dark and emotional.
As a book, that finale just felt …kind of rushed? Maybe if there’s a sequel in the future it would make sense to have that kind of cliffhanger.
But honestly, Grace’s story feels like continuous luck and carelessness which makes it frustrating, especially when coming to realise the hypocrisy of her motive.
Harry…I don’t even want to get into it.
💬 What did you think of this book?

first thing I did to plan my visit to He Sapa (the Black Hills) & Mako Sica (the Badlands) was read up on the Lakota's relationship to He Sapa & Lakota star knowledge / stellar theology. second thing was find the specific hiking trails I'd like to visit. third thing was finding field guides for the flora & fauna. and now is the time I'm like aright. I need a tent. and stove. and to learn how to camp.

tonight's dinner is couscous directly from the pot. arguably a step up from last night's dinner which was: bowl of microwave peas

RUSSELL CROWE on playing hando in romper stomper "I've never been a tertiary educated performer. Acting is an instinctive talent. You can do it or you can't do it. But what I do with the preparation is - it's like a detail thing. I could stand up and do a character like that on two minutes notice. You do that sort of thing in an audition where you indicate how far you can go in various areas. But then there's preparation to me. One, it's not hard work because I enjoy it and I elect to do it myself. And two, the benefits are obvious when you see your work because you've gone further and further. You've taken that what is that initial instinct and taken it so far down the track, because you've kept yourself focused on what these people are and what they do or what the psychology is. And at the same time as doing all that research... Hando is a very strong man.So there was a physical training aspect that is added. I went from doing 'Love in Limbo' playing this sedentary office type, Arthur Baskin, and then Hando in the blink of an eye. I wasn't working out at the gym when I was playing Arthur. I hate the goddamn gym. I only go there if I have to because it's for work. [laughs]"

i think the funniest thing about the tumblr ceo shitting the bed is when he tried to garner sympathy that all this was happening when he was supposed to be on "sabbatical". like yeah mate im really fucking sad for you that you didn't get to ruin a trans woman's day/week/year/life stress-free while you went on a three month vacation and still collected a daily paycheck for other people's labor. fucking crying for you dude.

the way that adult men working both in the x-men office and “influencer” fan-adjacent spaces always behave so performatively extra about gambit will never stop being weird to me. it’s such a nasty underhanded way to gatekeep his (mostly female lbr) fans under the guise of (repeatedly asserting) mere personal preference
Tumblr media
#this isn’t the same as fandom arguments btw bc it’s often unprovoked out of nowhere bashing#gambit#x#he’s not real#but his fans that you keep trying to gatekeep are#this shit isn’t new btw#the office tried to kill him ever since antarctica#i’ve read account of people attending cons in the early aughts#and the x-office men on the panel would pull this shit on the FANS ASKING QUESTIONS#the x-office keeps getting more homogenous the further we get from summer 2020#i knew it was just corporate pinkwashing and there you go#otherwise then where is vita#where is kelly thompson#why is leah only getting an occasional mini#treating tini howard like their peggy olson ‘superstar’ while culling all other female/nb/non-white writers…. tells you everything#we’re finally getting stephanie williams after how many years of the same yt men#and is she actually getting a book#or just a story included in marvel pride?#i don’t give a shit about what those men like and they don’t have to share my interests#but the fact that they’re actively trying to sabotage everything outside their specific personal preference?#not promoting r&g until presales ended for 1#while they promoted captain britain and x23 EARLY?#was a very specific choice#i remember this song and dance from long ago#see also ‘you’re not real fans’ levied at girls/women who loved movie rogue and her kinship w wolverine#even though they’re super close in the comics too#i know it’s partly the subset of weirdo kitty pryde fans (including our current x-editor lol)#who think any female character who logan mentors is a ~threat~ but it’s mostly misogyny

Small Sprite Practice with some OCs of mine
Lately I've been learning to use Adventure Game Studio so I can create a game with some Ideas I have, these are the first Sprites of the characters.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ely (The girl in the first Two) and his companion Dan (the ghost in the third one)
I made some Base ones, ones talking, and I'm working on adding Dan's Hat to Ely's sprite while she's possessed.
The idea for the Game is they run a business that consists on charging people to unhaunt their properties by helping the ghosts move on while also investing why Ely is the only person capable of seeing ghosts.
Dan can possesses Ely to interact with NPCs or objects and he has different dialogue from Ely, of course there are Puzzles that can only be solved by one of the two.
Again so far this project (Working title Hex on the Shelves) is in a very early estate, so far I want to make a prologue demo to test my abilities.

my biggest flaw is that i do find it very funny to think about how so many spn crossovers would just involve sam and dean murdering every character in the other franchise. the teen wolf kids? dead. good omens characters? all murdered. the doctor? they couldn’t manage it but they’d sure as hell try. when it comes to crossovers the winchesters really are your feral fucking dogs who get banned from the park because they can’t play nice with anyone else
