Love your art so much. Will you show us cool nature pics from your country? I'm literally so stoned I forgot where you live sorry.

Sure anon, why not. I'm not a photographer so the quality of these is kind of slushy at best. I like nature and wander around a little bit, but I rarely hike properly, so I don't go to that many scenic places. These are mostly from regular walks. Long post warning.

Summers are short but very green, and since we're at the arctic circle we get sunlight around the clock. Some of these were taken at midnight or early morning small hours. Most of Finland is very sparsely populated and covered in boreal forests.

Finland is a very watery country, lots of lakes in particular.

Sometimes you get intense sunsets

And winters are very cold, snowy and last about six months. In summer we have midnight sun and in winter there's the polar night to counter it. Around late December sun only rises for about two hours per day where I live so it's very dark for many, many weeks on end (which is wonderful if you get seasonal depression like I do). But sometimes the weather and lighting are just right and you get this ethereal pastel effect that I love.

Any advice for people looking to get over their fear of incests? Especially flying venomous ones that sometimes chase people (horse flies for example)

I'm going to quote something I said earlier(though it was wasp-specific), because I think it still holds, and add a little bit to it after

Honestly? Just exposure I think I’ve said this before, but I highly recommend just… looking at them. Photos to start, since bothering wasps in the flesh probably won’t be fun for either your or the wasp. Look at images of them, how many of them there are, how colorful and varied their appearances are. Look at them living their lives, pollinating, building nests, feeding their young, eating pieces of fruit. Get used to them. Realize they’re just… animals. Doing their thing. Take note of the ones that you think are particularly cool or interesting or fun, and maybe research those species in specific. Here’s a link to where you can view every wasp observation on iNaturalist(link provided because it took a little url trickery to filter out other hymenopterans). You can even filter for your local area to see which ones live around you, and from there you can search the names and learn about your own local wasp populations. I’d also recommend just being aware of wasps while outside. Partially because most stings happen because people weren’t paying attention, missed clear warnings from the wasps, and got to close to them/their nest/etc. Wasps don’t want to hurt you, and if you learn to pay attention to them and respect their boundaries, they won’t. I’ve never been stung despite habitually getting within centimeters of wasps to take photographs, because I keep this in mind

Another thing to do is try to interrogate *why* you feel a fear response towards bugs. Like what freaks you out? Are you worried they'll hurt you? Learn about the bugs around you, which ones are venomous or medically significant. I used to be kind of afraid of spiders, because I knew that some in my area were medically significant, but not which ones or how they looked, so I was just afraid any spider could seriously hurt me and I'd never know. Once I learned about spiders, which ones were dangerous, where they lived, what would make them bite me(not much, most bugs don't want to get involved with people. awareness and respect helps so much), I was a lot less afraid because it removed a lot of unknowns from the situation.

As for bugs that chase you, I mean I think its natural to be startled or annoyed at them, and I'm not gonna pretend I haven't gone "eep!" and swatted at a bug as an instinctual response. But if its a true like, "this completely freaks me out" fear instead of just startling and annoyance, then the interrogation of why and desensitization I think would help.

Here's a link to do my level best to include all bugs, including spiders (Its basically arachnids + hexapods + myriapods +isopods to filter out crabs and such lmao)

I always found that the shiny special holo cards you got back then were always better looking then the holos we have now. Is that the nostalgia speaking who said that

No, this is correct. While the illustrations on new cards have only gotten better over time, the holoing has gotten worse. To compare:

Modern reverse holos are mildly reflective at best. Vintage reverse holos vary depending on set, but they all have actual iridescence to them. (Once in a blue moon we get an actual good modern reverse holo, like the recent masterball holos, but it's rare.)

Modern standard holos are just horizontal stripes. Unlike the reverse holos they look fine, but you can't pull interesting patterned holos like you used to able to.

Speaking of which, cosmos holos used to be able to be pulled (and were often chase cards). Nowadays cosmos holos are used exclusively for promos.

And finally, when it comes to rare cards, things like SARs and ARs always use a diagonal holo, regardless of set or rarity (which is especially a shame because a patterned SAR or AR would pop off). In older sets there were dozens of holo patterns—one of my favorite sets, the ex-era cards, had different holo designs per each set.

The tradeoff is that there's two guaranteed reverse holos per pack now and one guaranteed holo, whereas holos used to be the chase cards. Likewise, rare cards are now holo by default, instead of having a non-holo variant as well as the holo design. I love the fact that it's easier to pull holos nowadays—I just wish TPC would put more effort into the holos instead of slapping the same bland standard holo on all of them.

Hi, not sure if you’ve talked about this but can you explain the significance of Louis finding other artists photography within his portfolio?

Well, for me it’s layered.

First, there is the point that makes Louis furious (at least initially) I think, namely that Daniel might think that he tries to pass them off as his own and that embarrasses him. Because they also serve to show he wasn’t as good as that artist.

Then there is the aspect as to who put them there. Louis‘ suspicion immediately falls to Armand which tells me that he, at least subconsciously, has clocked in on the meddling around with him already. He thinks Armand did it to achieve… what? That’s not quite clear.

Now, Armand proposes that Louis himself might have done it! And that in and by itself is also hugely interesting because it would indicate a certain level of self-sabotage, which Louis certainly has the props for and which seems to have happened before for Armand to go there at all. And I doubt this is the first or only argument about something like that.

And last, but not least, Armand also proposes that the staff or Rashid put them there. Also hugely interesting, bc it indicates that there have been other… incursions like that, and here comes that comment of Raglan into play, imho, namely that Daniel is not the “first“ attempting… what. The interview? The what is not clear once more, but the others who did… are now either dead or undead. It also means that Armand is suspicious of Rashid for some reason, which might explain him needling him in 2x06.

So … a lot of layers.

I‘m not sure we will get a final answer as to who actually put the photos there!!

Because for me it’s to hint at all of these layers, character-, story- and world-building-wise if you will.

Hey, what you think about that Cosmo and Wanda call Timmy "precious gift" like in special "abracatastrophe" when he have 8 old by his parents?

I don't think that Cosmo and Wanda should imitate anything that Timmy's parents did, tbh.
