its very irritating interesting to see a lot of people hating aventurine, like yes hes sly and seems like this rich guy who cares about nothing else but money, but ironically he hasnt really lied to us so far, or screwed us over, in comparison to some other characters hes actually been honest and helpful and at least we know his motives.

also theres the whole 'he was a slave who didnt get an education and his family probably died horrible deaths' thing, and after all that he managed to crawl his way to the top of the ipc ladder by himself, aka the people who (presumably) enslaved him.

like??? of course hes not going to be a warm person helping you out of the kindness of his heart, he (presumably) got enslaved and most people who meet him are racist as fuck like???? what do people expect

also ironic the amount of people wanting darker/morally grey characters and moaning theyre not all Good or simping over TB 24/7

like just say you cant handle complex characters and go.

ANYWAY, peep my favorite moment of this episode

riz and kristen (ally and murph) are SO sibling coded.

love when we get to see murph helping ally even when they've played so much dnd now

you'll never guess which level we're up to in this dishonored 2 rewrite

I had to open the ship combat rules doc I made for Rook's campaign the other day, and man, that thing was (and still is tbh) my fucking magnum opus. I put so much effort into creating rules for a type of combat that dnd doesn't naturally support, and it was SUCH a fun challenge. I'll admit it's not perfect, but it works for our campaign, and everyone seemed to like it during our one test so far, so that's good enough for me.

I think between the stat blocks, the rules themselves, and the maps of the ships, I spent easily 48 hours total on making this sailing arc happen. (No, I'm not the DM, I just like homebrewing shit, and also happen to be the one who decided to play a pirate and make that involved in the story.)

Man some people are still having a really hard time coping with Firefly being Sam, it's kinda sad

I saw someone say they hope Firefly dies and Sam gains sentience. And like ok, if that happens I hope the sentience is just Firefly. Like she gets five nights at freddy'd and oops now she's a ghost haunting a suit of armour

It's so funny to me how in the end after years of fanon, we actually got the watchers globally involved in the life series and we all gotta thank Martyn. We owe him like 1 million dollars let's start collecting

my favourite thing that happens ever is when I search up something (mostly happens with animals and prehistoric life n stuff) and I just end up going down a massive rabbit hole on a shit ton of stuff and end up with a search result that has almost nothing to do with what I initially searched

like a couple hours ago I had anglerfish up on google to use as reference for something cause I fucking love anglerfish right they're one of my favourite fish

And my mum walked in and we started talking about it's skeleton cause there was a picture of one on the search results, and I was like yeah but have you seen a parrot skeleton their necks don't look like how they do with the feathers it's cool

so I showed her pictures of a parrot skeletons and she was like woah, now can you get an owl skeleton up I like owls I think they're cool, so I did and we looked at them for a bit

then after she left I got a new art idea from the bird skeletons that I think would be cool, and I was like oh wait what about the shoebill stork that could work

after I had browsed images of them for a bit I got sidetracked and started looking into wingspans

naturally I searched up the albatross

which then led me to learn abt this cool locking mechanism they have with their wings so they can stay gliding for periods of time!!!

and THEN I found this scale picture of this really cool prehistoric bird called the pelagornis which was significantly bigger than the albatross, yet still way under the size of a quez

I think it was roughly the same size as the argentavis but idk I'm not sure I haven't compared them yet I still need to do that

but yeah to summarise I went from anglerfish to pelagornis without intending to and it was awesome

[bugmistake]

ive gotta. get it together a little bit i think. holy shit i really did not mean for the tags to get THAT long

always so funny to re-realize that my fixations evidently don't work like most people's. i'll see posts like 'that point in ur life ur between hyperfixations and u feel like ur just floating aimlessly' or ppl talking about like 'aw man i think my hyperfixation on x is fading' and i'll be like you can do that? that can happen? bc for me these things don't have an expiration date they always just keep going until they're replaced by something else. the only time i ever 'lost interest' in a fixation in a neutral way it literally took more than two years and it wasn't a gradual fade so much as a specific and sudden 'ok i want to do something else now'.
