Hi i've read some posts of you about Tsats and it seems like you didn't like the book.
Honestly i'm with you in this 'cause i find it problematic on so many levels (characterizations, inconsistencies, ableism) but apparently there's gonna be a sequel???? What do you think about it?
i think i can pretty concisely summarize my thoughts about the sequel with:
Longer version: It just feels wholly unnecessary. There's no continuation to use for a sequel, really. The first TSATS was unnecessary to begin with but it was so focused on leaving no stone unturned that it functionally left no loose ends to tie up. There's just nowhere to go with it unless they do even MORE retconning and warping characters OOC to string some kind of plot out of, but even that wouldn't reasonably give them enough to make a full novel's worth of plot out of anyways, which means if this sequel is novel-length like the last then it will drag on SO. MUCH. TSATS1 already had horrible pacing problems. There's no way this won't be worse.
#braghis#ask#tsats crit#like ive said before: an anthology of individual short stories focusing on nico and will throughout their relationship or adventures#would have been leagues better. its clearly what they wanted to do in the first place since half the pacing problems in TSATS are just#shoehorning in awkward flashbacks every chapter for the first two thirds of the book because they needed an excuse to put all that in#i have no problem with framed narratives but GOD we really did not need to go in-depth about absolutely EVERYTHING#you're SUPPOSED to leave details untouched. if its not narratively important dont sidetrack everything to explain every detail#and especially dont create an entire side thing to excuse interrupting the story every chapter to go on a flashback tangent about nothing#and drag both each individual flashback AND the interrupting sidequest on SO GODDAMN LONG#the format itself is not the problem it's the fact that they did a shit job at it

Joe reaches above his head, pushing onto his toes, to put a clean frying pan on the top shelf, pulling his t-shirt up with the motion. There’s a flash of the dimples near Joe’s spine, at the small of his back—an unnecessarily sexy part of him, in Patrick’s opinion—holding Patrick’s attention. Patrick feels pulled to him from across the kitchen, unconsciously, fingers curling over hip bones, thumbs holding the hem of Joe’s shirt out of the way to get an eye full. He stares with wide, yearning eyes... Or: Patrick catches a glimpse of Joe’s back dimples, and he has to act up about it. Naturally.
top patrick/bottom joe nation i wrote a little bit of married/domestic flavoured smut inspired by joe's back dimples, hope u enjoy <3

「これ大柑子十五あるベし」
"There are 15 oranges inside"
#fgo#fate grand order#Ashiya Douman#another little thing while i work on the big piece#i really like rats as a symbol of his inability to surpass Seimei its a pretty famous story i think?#the one where Douman (correctly) divines that there are 15 oranges in a box but Seimei changes them into rats and wins the contest#ive been reading abe no seimei monogatari its great douman is soooo arrogant and petty and i love him#(a modern jp translation since its from 1662 its really nice it has og text on top and modern jp on the bottom and a ton of annotations)#which get me sidetracked into things like heian court rankings and the palace layout and the shishinden#anyway the whole reason the contest was held is cause douman hears about seimei#and is soooo upset at the possibility of someone possibly being better than him so he goes to the capital and shows up at seimei's house#to challenge him and prove himself better and its huge event the emperor and all the nobles are there#first part is flashy magic displays but douman (who is losing) basically goes uhh that didn't count divination is the proper way to decide!

Does anybody that's ace or like aspec have to sortve .."schedule" masturbation?
Like I don't have a calendar or anything lol it's more like I'll have the body feeling and then I'm like "okay I know what to do to satisfy that body feeling." And then I'll be about to and then it's like "actually I think I wanna embroider this jacket instead" or "actually I think I'd rather finish this fanfic"
Like there's just always something else I'd rather be doing. Like I really have to either be '100% in the mood can't think about anything else' or 'okay it's been a while I guess I should give it a go'
Just me orrr 😅😅😅😅???
#demisexual#asexual#ace#just yapping#cause literally since maybe last week ive been kinda meaning to and then getting sidetracked with anything else#just every other creative project and then its the end of the day and im like#well now im tired so i dont feel like it maybe try again tomorrow and then the same thing happens#bit of an overshare ramble but this is the overshare rambling site so#hey

damn i was just looking for robot porn but u know what i wiilllllllll think again abt the most perfect and evocative ideological short handing ever made in media of the sisyphusean insurrectionist. Thank you ultrakill
#every u.k post i gotta decide. which blog it goes on. lol#no no go off post in the tag yelling abt how mischaracterizing summary vids are about them#see what i think they fail to understand the neatness of melding the concepts of the eternal revolution with the persuit of absurdity#both of which are seeking of meaning and joy in techically futile circumstances#but thru their view sort of. demand the action. the experience itself. be the meaning. the purpose.#so one post imagine this sisyphusean insurrectionist happy#anyway..... ive been sidetrack from the cybernookie once again

just found out a friend i'd made through a very good friend of mine who ive been talking to nearly everyday is fucking horrible about gender and trans rights and just the whole fucking thing
one of those "i support them if it's not shoved in my face and i only see two genders" fucking bullshit
i'm more sad than anything. if i'm gonna be upset to the point of tears i'd at least like it to be anger. but i'm just so sad
#will i completely break off this relationship?#am i gonna stick to it until something truly fucking heinous is said that i cannot take?#im for sure swayed by the fact that my support system is so SMALL#like in terms of ppl who i dont feel the need to hide any part of myself around? i think i have 2 of those#and the pool is already so small to begin with#so having just ONE MORE was HUGE#i know its about quantity not quality#but one of those 2 ppl ive only reconnected with in the last few months and the other is my bro who i have not come out to at all#also just having friends in general is pretty fucking cool lol idk about yall#well i was reading up on more stuff before i vote tomorrow and ive now been so sidetracked and drained of any want to stay on this subject#i really didnt need this today#sea rambles#personal

This song is the only thing keeping me going I do not play about mr showtime 😞 nothing ruined me (made my life better) the way this song did
(Sendn. Me songs to do this with in my ask box… sniffle…)
#circuses? heh.. yeah.. im familiar… jesters? oh#even better…. rellakinoko? now hold on this is already gonna be good… tsukasa tenma? im sold. the fish has been captured. im followinf the#sirens into the deepest parts of the sea and wont be coming back. Unfortunately i had gotten t1k (t571) on ensekai for phoenix and am still#bitter about it. Emu and nene came home but the ugly blonde didnt. This is why we’re having problems tsukasa#i have a mr showtime themed custom profile that needs to be finished aand i gotta work on my one for#tsukasa4#ill be more prepared for that one im certain of it#knocking on wood#PRAYING.#t500 would have been nice you know… unfortunately i ran out of resources.#i think the amount of time and love ive poured into making everything abt this event makes up for this though. Also this is gonna sound#obnoxious but i feel like one of the five people who actually. You know. Get the event. Like its importance which ill elaborate on in a#future post. Everybody wants to talk about this event but nobody wants to read the story#and the side stories Guysss ur missing out its so good when youre not forcing urself to think tsukasa has an ed and dont even know a single#thing abt acting yet believe one google search can prove that method acting is Absolutely Totally Going To Ruin His Life#i dont think fasting was alright it was pretty stupid but what he did doesnt make him have an ed or this or that#I do think you should be very. Very careful with method acting by the way. That can mess you up. But i dont think thats where theyll be#taking tsukasa in the future. Yes itd be nice to show the risks and get a You know be careful but its not as dark and This is gonna ruin hi#😞😨My poor baby!! As people think#omg i got sidetracked LET ME TALK ABT THE BINGO???1?1? Easily distracted ass#Uhm. Where do i begin. Nvm i dont wanna write too much more but this song truly does mean the world to me#And rella’s art is so goood my eyes are always glued to it. For some reason i keep having trouble fcing the expert chart for it on ensekai#ut was just fine on jpsekai. Frowny face. I could listen to the song all day though#Those instrumentals are popping offff i tell you#hidden circus#wonderlands x showtime#wxs#wansho#commissioned song#prsk

The conversation topic tonight is “Moments that single-handedly changed the way I make things forever” I suppose so.
(You can find the owner and creator here on tumblr too at toastyglow and definitely do, they make so many good things other than just this one particular creation of theirs that im obsessed with)
I may not animate or anything but the way my brain imagines Moments for things im gunna write or draw or like, plot points as a whole was deeply and unexplainably influenced by one particular animation i found three or four-ish years ago and to this day I am with bated breath obsessed with it. Ashivon, Sanga and Tsela live in a special place in my heart. I could talk someones ear off about all the little moments that Kill Me from the original and how much I gush over the following ones, and how violently i am waiting for part 5.
(fucking SPOILERS, but I will never stop thinking about him straining at his own fucking execution all for the sake of a child he’s never met about to live the life he’s experienced or the knife sliding across Sangas chest, every rewatch has me vibrating violently)
(Also tonight specifically, I am thinking a lot about how Ashivon was probably just referred to as The Executioner and how scantly often Sanga and Ashivon would have been alone together safe enough for her to have used his name and how long it might have been since she’s been able to call him by name when they finally escape and thats going to live in my head rent free for a While now.)
#munchatter#munart#I was GOING to fuck around practining an animation idea ive had in my head for half a decade now#and the animation i had in mind is to the song Church FOB#obviously i got sidetracked because as soon as i listened to church I had to go refresh my memory of Divinity#head empty only Ashivon now#its almost been 2 years now since part 4 wow i am so wildly excited for part 5#honestly glad i didnt try to start animating cause of the handful of things i made obsessing over divinity tonight this was the best and its#still not good#would have been so frustrated trying to draw any sort of animations#anyway go watch the Escape from Divinity series on youtube and then#also go check out toasty and look at their cool designs#this is actually an advert for one of my favorite artists i am advertising them to you go on now
