[stone-stars]

Transcript:

A weaving of clips from different Naddpod scenes. The first is the battle against Ultrus, during which Kingshammer plays in the background. The second is Hardwon talking to Callie, during which The Gunslinger's Girl plays in the background. Murph: And Hardwon, behind you, you hear a familiar voice. Ol' Cobb: Hey! Hey Hardwon! I don't know if you can hear me. Hardwon: I… I lost my battle with Gruumsh. And… and my best friend died that day. A man named Cobb. Murph: You see the spirit of a lanky old crick elf, long white hair, eye patch, blunderbuss at his side. He shakes you as he speaks to you and-- it occurs to you right away that he's not talking to you right now. This is a-- a-- it feels like a recording, or a memory. And you realize that-- you didn't comprehend it at the time, but this was your last conversation with Cobb. He was speaking to you while you were knocked out. And it begins flooding back to you. Callie: What was he like? Cobb: Gruumsh's guys saw me run up here. I'm-- I'm gonna take 'em a--as far as my old legs can run. Hardwon: He was funny. Callie: Was he? Hardwon: He's a riot, that guy. Cobb: But you-- you gotta stay here, alright? Hardwon: Cobb. Cobb, come on. No. Murph: He keeps talking through you-- Callie: I'm really sorry. Is that why you stopped? Hardwon: I can't protect my best friend, who can I? Callie: Did he ask you to protect him? Cobb: Now don't go blaming yourself. I know you're gonna blame yourself. But-- Hardwon: Oh, fuck. Cobb: I ain't doing you a favor, alright? Hardwon: Aw, Cobb-- Cobb: You're doing me one. Hardwon: Let me die, Cobb! Cobb: Let this old man leave the world knowing that the kids are gonna be alright. Hardwon: He'd always tell me to keep it light. But, since he's gone… Hardwon: No! The world's better with you in it than me! Cobb! What are you doing? Cobb: Look after Moonshine and Bev for me, yeah? Hardwon: It feels like the light went with him. Murph: You see he begins to walk, ahead of the other spirits, and turns back. [A new clip, this one from The Heart of the World. Oh, Melora! plays] Murph: Hardwon, you like Cobb because he's quick with a joke. Cobb: Or better yet, you tell Moonshine and Bev to look after you, dumbass! [Laughs] [Oh, Melora! again] Murph: He likes you because you're quick with a laugh. Jake: Hardwon laughs and sobs. Cobb: Keep it light! Murph: You see Cobb charges into battle, a ghostly reflection of his last stand. Hardwon: He tried to save me. He did save me. I… couldn't return the favor.

I am once again knitting which means I'm back to the Nein rewatch and happened to be on Midnight Espionage, and truly INSANE episode. The egg dick, both break-ins, the Zauber Spire attack, and the first time a beacon is on screen in like four hours flat. Trent Ikithon is there. The episode ends with Liam and Marisha yelling, "TRUST THE PORN."

Taylor Swift - In The Trees Tour (If Folklore went on tour)

The summer after her blockbuster indie-folk double album, Taylor Swift embarks on a tour befitting of the acoustic tales Folklore and Evermore weave. All outdoor venues in forests and parks and canyons across America, some of the most iconic stages once helmed by the greatest storytellers to ever pick up a guitar. Among others, Red Rocks, The Hollywood Bowl, the infamous Woodstock grounds, and one intimate night in Central Park beneath the stars. Folklore and Evermore come to life from the steps of a traveling mid-century cabin, where Taylor can gaze out upon her audience each night, nestled among verdant trees, sprawled out on grassy lawns, or cradled by the mountains. Buy tickets now to the concert of the summer and experience Folklore and Evermore as Taylor herself wishes to be pictured; In The Trees.

I've been replaying Professor Layton and the Curious Village and I had honestly forgotten how fucking funny this game is. None of these villagers are even remotely close to normalcy but Luke and Layton barely comment on it. They get shut off from the outside world and they carry on as if nothing's wrong. They get pursued and almost killed by a Ferris Wheel. Luke has no chill and no mercy and he's here to solve mysteries, not make friends. They don't even get beds in their rooms at the inn. It is hilarious.

Thanks to @sugarcream-sims for these questions :)

Sam's parents are supportive of him. His family moved to Tomarang specifically for his father’s work, so Sam didn’t see him much. Sam doesn’t blame his dad for this though, since it allowed for their family to live comfortably. If asked, he would describe his relationship with his parents as "alright".

Sam and Roy both slacked off during school, especially if they ended up in the same class. The difference between the two is that if Sam had bad grades at the end of the semester he’d pull through and focus for the last few weeks…whereas Roy would just accept his grades as they were.

at that point Sam would usually separate himself so he could actually do his work

The closest thing they’ve had to fighting over a girl would be in their late teens when they both “dated” the same “girl” online for about a month. (They both got catfished by the same guy.)

They had a pretty big fight in what would have been their junior year of high school where they didn’t talk for a few months, but eventually Roy decided that being friends with Sam again was worth more than keeping a grudge. Sam felt the same way.

One thing that has deeply annoyed me about the response from Americans/Westerners about this week's events in Korea is that a lot of them, including people I like and respect, are like, "The protesting civilians and lawmakers who barged into the National Assembly would've been shot if this were the U.S./this would've never happened in the U.S. because people are too afraid of being shot." There's some truth to that, at least with regard to state violence, but I'm fed up because it doesn't account for how frightening this could have turned out to be had it not been for how much of an inept flop dunce Yoon Sukyeol is. It minimizes the courage of those who showed up.

Sure, it was likely that the military and riot police wouldn't have done much (again, YSY's self-coup wasn't thought out well, and there's more evidence of that as military officials and soldiers are speaking up about the lack of information they received, but I'll refrain from talking about that to avoid making this even longer than it inevitably will be, knowing myself), but let's not pretend there haven't been issues with them in recent years. They pepper sprayed and used water cannons during an anniversary rally for the Sewol ferry victims (x) (x) (if you don't understand how unbelievably cruel that is, look into the horrific Sewol ferry sinking). They tear gassed crowds (Korea has a gruesome history of this) and sprayed water cannons, and citizens have been injured and killed during the 2015 protests and 2016-17 Park Geunhye impeachment protests, notably Baek Namgi, an elderly activist whose death caused global outrage (x) (x). Park Geunhye was going to enforce martial law during those protests according to a leaked document, with hundreds of tanks, thousands of soldiers and special force troops! (x)

Not to mention, there are decades of extreme state violence that have scarred an entire country and are still super fresh for a huge percentage of the population. Again, check out that tear gas history piece. Look up the April Revolution, Gwangju massacre, and June uprising and see just how bloody they were. Thousands of civilians were tortured and killed. Look at how many protests were going on year after year during the 1980s. That isn't that long ago! All those older people who ran to the National Assembly to stop the coup? You bet a lot of them were college students who protested during that time or knew people who did. All the younger people? They may not have experienced what it was like living under martial law, but as I said, state violence still occurs, however much it's dwindled over the years, and you have to account for generational trauma. I don't think I'll ever forget the way I felt when I saw the breaking news alert about the martial law declaration on December 3. I've never experienced that, at least to that degree.

Instead of viewing the response from civilians and elected officials through the framework of police brutality in the U.S., it should be contextualized using Korea's own history. Thankfully most of the serious discussions are doing this, but like I said, even people who are smart about reading up on things have reflected on how this wouldn't fly in the U.S., not because of the difference in protest history, civil movements, and public engagement with both in the two countries but because of the military/police response. There's an insinuation there that Koreans would be more reluctant to do what they did if they knew what it's like to live in fear of violence instead of living in such a safe country like Korea...and I want to yell.

It was monumentally brave of everyone to do what they did to stop the coup. We're all laughing at how stupid the coup was and there's a reason why people were more furious than scared because of the political history of Korea and the laws set in place to protect the democracy and neutralize coup attempts, but this could have easily become a disaster. It's not alarmist of me to say so because there was no way for anyone to be 100% sure of how the military would react—especially when no one knew what the hell was going on.
