Kind of pissed I have to post about this, but whatever. If you post in the Pokémon tags (or the Genshin tags, or honestly whatever) there’s a very unwell person leading a massive spam campaign and if you’re unlucky enough for your post to get picked up by them Congrats you’ve been infested by the Spam Demon. They’ve been stalking my notes for this entire month already. Reporting is useless (thank you Tumblr), blocking is useless, it’s just a matter of Having To Cope. But yeah; please be aware if you get targeted by this. There’s just kind of nothing you can do about it. It fucking sucks.

#from what i can tell this is a genshin asmr youtuber? who is also supposed to be dead? ??#they’re trying to harass people they’re pissed at idk what that’s about and i could care less #at this point they’re harassing every unfortunate account they can get their hands on #not art #fucking whyyyyy am i being involved in GENSHIN DRAMA #theyre not checking my blog specifically from what i can tell theyre just spamming the same two posts over n over #so i pray they dont see this and sigh as every fucking day a new one of these pops up #they stopped for a couple days. i had hope. i should not have had. theyre back in full force #but augh. yeah. if this happens to you Im So Sorry buckle up along with me i guess

If you can't click into the article; Trump is proposing to dissolve FEMA and put disaster clean up and responsibilities solely onto the states, which, as someone living in one of those states, would be an UNMITIGATED DISASTER.

IF FEMA hadn't come in and provided funding in my area, I would probably STILL be trapped in my house by a fallen tree. My state/county/city would have just shrugged and gone, 'well did you consider not being poor? Not OUR problem!'

#current events 2025 #america #american politics #what pray tell is the fucking POINT of the federal government without things like FEMA?

you could theoretically read the series in the order 8.5, 9.5, 9 instead of 8.5, 9, 9.5 because books 9 and 9.5 take place parallel to each other but also sophie and keefe never interact between them so hypothetically there should be no difference (and no spoilers either way).

another thing you could theoretically do is alternate between reading books 9 and 9.5. a chapter here, a chapter there. it would be like reading a longer version of unlocked, with the povs alternating between sophie and keefe.

in fact, in theory, there could be a possibility of even less spoilers if you read it 8.5, 9.5, 9. for example, if vespera makes an appearance in unraveled, and you didn't know she would die yet, it could be a really cool way to see her last minute and have an extra layer about her before her death. whereas if vespera makes an appearance in unraveled and you already know she's going to die, it feels a little more empty. not completely meaningless, but like. kinda empty. like if vespera hints at a larger plan or something in unraveled and you didn't know she was going to die, you'd be super excited to see this plan shake out, but now that we know she's going to die something like that wouldn't hit as hard.

#kotlc #unraveled #kotlc unraveled #kotlc sophie #sophie foster #kotlc keefe #keefe sencen #i am. theorizing. hypothesizing. if you will #i wanna see a new kotlc fan do this in like five years #and tell us about their experience as we vigilantly take notes #obviously this is theoretical because idk what shannon's gonna put in unraveled yet so we'll just have to wait and see #if that's a valid possibility #if i was a new fan and someone told me that unraveled and stellarlune take place parallel but never interact #i'd read them side-by-side #alternating between the chapters as if i was reading unlocked lmfao #because i can't take an entire book of keefe straight i will simply perish lmfao #ngl i am kinda hyped for this book now i wanna see what direction shannon's gonna take this #seeing it as less of a kotlc book and more of a case study #and praying to shannon that this point five thing doesn't become a habit #i think it's just cool that now in theory at least there's a different way that you could experience the story #mine

canon verse roast lore summarized (if we can even call this a summary)

at some point while robin's touring the cosmos, sunday mentions how he's concerned about her and that she should get an assistant or something and she eventually agrees. enter me, a traveler from (redacted) that she meets shortly after she has that conversation with sunday. we chat and i mention that i've been traveling the cosmos, with the desire to see as much as i can, but sometimes it gets a little rough because i gotta pay to get around or something and she ends up asking me to be her assistant so that i can still travel and not worry as much about paying for it. it takes some convincing from her but i eventually accept.

she introduces me to sunday the next time she returns to penacony and He Is Not Happy. because he had assembled a group of candidates, all of which were very trusted and capable members of the family and instead robin chose me, some rando from god knows where that she barely knows. robin, does defend me though (by this point we have known each other for a few months), but that doesn't stop sunday from trying to intimidate me into quitting. but i grin and bear it because i like robin and rationalize that i only have to deal with the control freak siscon when we are in penacony.

so naturally he and i are not friends. we play nice in robin's presence for her sake, but otherwise... i spend as much time away from him as i can while on penacony. i think that when robin has the accident we get into an extremely heated argument and i say some things that end up improving his opinion of me. or something. LMAO. after that we clearly are still not friends but are much less hostile with one another (or more it's like sunday is less hostile toward me and i, in turn am less hostile toward him).

around the time of the charmony festival, robin's schedule calms down a lot and she tells me i can take a vacation during the preparations, and while i object initially, she insists i deserve it and that she can handle things with me gone since it's not that busy and that sunday will be there to help (i protest because sunday's sure to be busy). eventually i end up relenting, saying i'll be back at the start of the charmony festival. meaning during the events of the penacony arc i am off planet— i actually go back to (redacted) for some time. so i get to hear about sunday and everything on the news. L M A O. and it's all very insane to me. can't wrap my head around it but the first thing i do is call robin.

sometime later, robin tells me sometime later that she's thinking of going on a hiatus, which means i don't really need to attend to my duties as her assistant. but she says that, in the meantime, she can put in a good word for me to board the astral express so that i can keep traveling without worrying about expenses too much (she naturally withholds the information that sunday will also be on the train).

so i board the train and, sunday is there and i'm just like 'what the fuck' because i know robin did that on purpose and the first chance i get i call her and demand an explanation and she all but asks me to help sunday on his journey the same way i helped her and i can't ever say no to robin. so. lol.

at this point we start to actually get to know one another. since sunday is more relaxed there is way less hostility (when i find out they hit him for the train i tell them good job and they should do it again if he gets out of line). somehow i end up hanging out with sunday a fair amount but i like the rest of the ae crew a lot so i hang out with them lots too... sunday has varying opinions (feelings) about that lmao.

this is the point where all the thoughts get muddy but, and i did mention this before, march (and maybe tb) try to play matchmaker. i keep in contact with robin a lot (via text). unbeknownst to me, march is also contacting robin with regards to her matchmaking hijinks.

but where the game is currently, i go hang out with sunday and welt. welt, unfortunately has to play babysitter since sometimes sunday and i have snark-offs.

#sunday roast #sunday develops feelings first but i think that he's conflicted about it #march picks up on it and tells him she'll help out since pretty girls are messengers of love or something #and so she arranges a sleepover for all the girls on the astral express and uses it to ask me about sunday #by that point i haven't really thought about him much lmao though i say he's very handsome #while she's hounding me tb (and sunday who prtends he's not there willingly and dan heng who is there semi-unwillingly #are trying to eavesdrop from dh's room #i think i say to march that i do not think that sunday knows what romantic feelings are which greatly offends him lmao #so i think after that he's trying to rizz my pants off #at some point we go to (redacted) and contend with my past #sunday does NOT like (redacted) at all #feels threatened #uhhhh there was something else i wanted to say.....#OH. i think there are similarities to office au roast #except since i'm not sunday's employee in canon i can disrespect him almost as much as i want #it's all subject to change depending on how the story goes....#and how hoyo wants to break my canon but i can pray...#anyway that's like 80% of canon roast lore #please do not laugh at me.....

considering where we left off after season 1, it's actually not a surprise how the two of them ended up.

yeah, they held hands on the bus and went to the ritz—but did aziraphale ever apologise for all the horrible shit he threw at crowley?

did they ever properly talk about the bookshop fire and what it did to crowley to think aziraphale was gone gone for a few hours?

did they ever address "and i will never talk to you again?" or how much power it must have cost crowley to stop time while the literal king of hell was bursting through the ground? in how much pain he visibly was?

did crowley feel comfortable and safe enough to talk about how triggering it must have been for him to be burned alive in heaven AGAIN? did he tell aziraphale about the holy water he had to use? that it could have easily destroyed not just ligur but hastur and himself too?

fuck, did he get to process ANY of the shit that happened on his way to tadfield?

they got closer and blurred some edges, but fundamentally they functioned exactly like before.

#alex talks good omens #good omens #ineffable husbands #crowley #aziraphale #good omens season 2 #go2 #aziracrow #crowley x aziraphale #ineffable divorce #and before you ask 'what about aziraphale' pray tell what kind of horrible painful experience did he go through outside his encounters with #the archangels like three times? his discorporation was so painless he didn't even NOTICE until the dude in heaven pointed it out #and his experience in hell was taking a bath #meanwhile crowley was running for his life and being hunted for sport by hell

(regarding the Fort Merceus scene)

"Claude doesn't know as much about the Seiros faith because he's an outsider" thanks for ignoring the entire point of Claude's route just to insist he doesn't grow as a character

Ohhh wait, no, it's not that he's not knowledgeable, it's just him definitely lying! Because disagreements? Regarding tenets of a religion? Impossible! Claude must be feigning ignorance and lying because that's all he does as a character! He's tricking the diligent Lorenz into thinking things that aren't true, because Church Bad and Claude would never tell the truth!

#sorry saw this take and HAD to poke fun at it because what was the game plan here for Claude #if it's so obvious it's a lie and everyone would KNOW it's a lie then NO ONE WOULD BELIEVE HIM LMAO #literally there'd be no point in lying. might as well also say that grass is purple at that point #also tf would Lorenz ''I only pray to look good to commoners'' Hellman Gloucester actually know about the faith #like he literally says he ISN'T a devout believer. like. he says that damn near verbatim. he is not a devoted follower #so he's not some all-knowing expert on the faith or anything #like Garreg Mach literally does trade with foreign nations and lets in foreign students so he can't be THAT correct lmao #and the fact that Claude bringing this up isn't immediately met with. the fucking ''actually it literally does'' thing from Hopes like BRUH #WAIT #WHY WOULDN'T LITERALLY E V E R Y O N E BRING UP THE SUPPOSED PROHIBITIONS TO OUTSIDE CONTACT SHIT THE CHURCH ''DOES''#IF WHAT CLAUDE SAYS HERE IS APPARENTLY FULL OF SHIT??? can we use our thinking caps FOR ONCE regarding Claude i am BEGGING #he GIGA couldn't get away with the ''lie'' if that shit from Hopes actually existed like come ON now people what are we doing #also you know who IS an ACTUALLY devout believer who DOESN'T call out Claude and straight up tells LORENZ to stfu? Judith #so there's that too #and Marianne! she says nothing about this being contradictory either and she's WAY more faithful than Lorenz is #these people want Claude to be a one-dimensional liar who never grows as a character SO BAD

anyways will begging hannibal not to lie to him as he drags gideon into his house. yea

#such a brief scene but very real #the juxtaposition of knowing theyre lying and hiding the truth from you #and begging them to tell you cuz you cant stand not knowing anymore #but also praying that its not really true. that there is a reality thats softer #but that softer reality can only exist in a world in which you cant trust yourself #so what is the better outcome?#fic ref #since im clearly projecting at this point that scene lasted 4 seconds

negative connotations to Arabic phrase ‘God is Great’ incorrect. average praying Muslim does takbir (says Allahu Akbar) a minimum 95 times a day and should have been counted.
