so like a really long time ago i saw this video of anne rice talking about vampire creativity and she basically said that vampires can't make anything artistically valid, that that type of creativity is reserved for human beings and this ep really made me think about that bc these vampires really want to make things but then they get frustrated when what they make isn't good and they can't find what they're looking for in their work but what's missing is the humanity. louis can see things that human beings can't bc of his vampiric abilities but that doesn't automatically give him a leg up irt making art, his work is more documentation than capturing singular moments. and he's frustrated that he can't connect w his subjects and it furthers his feelings of alienation from humanity bc why can't he just do it? why can't he convey the things he's trying to w his photos? and then he covets human work bc the spark required to make it is unavailable to him

cloud strife who swears like a sailor but tries (with varying degrees of success) to tone it down around kids and old folks and people who just don't like it.

sephiroth tries out some of his trademark phrases one day and cloud loses it.

laughing until he cries OR struck by a sudden and intense wave of lust?

reader's choice i guess :)

Major spoilers

So shady sands got nuked by a random vault dweller because his wife took their kids, and he wanted his kids, and he was mad his wife found a settlement when vault tec was supposed to be the ones settling the surface…he was mad the ncr “did vault Tec’s job before they could” so he blew…the fucking ncr’s main settlement up

I wonder if it’s like “oh yeah he was a protag of his own mind pretty much” kind of jab but even then it leaves a bad taste in my mouth? Because it is insane video game writing and it’s definitely insane bethesda video game writing, but it fucks up a very integral part of two major games

And I hate how much like…yeah the BoS is back to being technocratic and more cult like in the show but it’s also still praised kind of? And the random, and I mean RANDOM, nonbinary BoS member that’s there for like, 20 minutes was just…a waste. A nonbinary person that really does nothing but just be there and hurt themselves to forward the narrative of the cis het protag. Honestly they’re there to piss of the conservative gamers but I’m not conservative and I’m pissed shady sands and the ncr got did dirty like that so in the end every fallout fan is mad

Like…the ncr went from a huge mega power that is basically a country, to being blown up by a dude? And they don’t mention the hoover dam and how maybe they were weakened from the legion/ncr conflict…which would’ve made it believable. Nada. They just say it this guy blew up shady sands so I guess it happened. It’s canon.

They just made the ncr seem so small after fnv made it feel so big and menacing in its own way with hundreds of named npcs with stories and it was so gooooood and they made it feel like a shitty dinky settlement comparable to fucking…like…diamond city

Idk it’s like 5am and the final episode just pissed me off. They should’ve just set it in New York or Florida and made up new factions instead of establishing canon endings to the most favored game in the series. Or they could’ve done a prequel to fo4 if they wanted it to tie in the games so bad.

The ghoul also has the best scenes and story but I’m…idk the drugs suppressing the “feral” disease is also a weird thing. It’s new to the tv series and what only in la? What’s it made of that no one else makes? And why the fuck did he have to eat someone. I liked the scene because it was kinda just neat to watch in a way… but it’s like “oh he’s a ghoul so he eats people whoOoOo” They never really…explain…if he like…needs meat or something and idk. I dunno. And cold fusion? Like what. Wha…uh. I fucking hate the idea of power being harnessed from tiny object. It’s just a lame McGuffin they can pass around. I would rather it be like…they’re fighting over a wind farm to harness power and they need like a scientist/engineer to fix it. Something that feels big and really.

Anyway, I’m fine with watching it until I think about it, and then I don’t like the plot. So it feels like fo4 all over again but I’m more mad because I feel like it ruined fnv’s ending. Which sucks. So personally I do not see the show as canon but as like, fan fiction to like…maybe a independent/house/legion ending for fnv when the ncr is super week and some guy just bombs it…because he’s mad at his wife.

Big ooof, a 8/10 until episode 8 and then it’s a fat 2/10…one star for goggins making another badass ghoul in the series and one for the dog

I do the dishes during the week cuz hubby works full-time, and then he usually does a load or two on the weekend to help out when he's home

And I am noticing a troubling pattern

I am pretty sure I have washed at least one pair of scissors every day for like. Two weeks

I usually only use scissors for like... cutting out coupons or opening packages. Not stuff that would generally get them so dirty they need to be in the sink. I very rarely put scissors in the sink.

We even have a milk jug that came with its own little bag-opening-blade-slicey thingie so you don't even need to use scissors to open the milk

I know Jon sometimes opens vacuum sealed meats with scissors which, ok yeah, scissors need a good wash after that. But he does not open packages of meat every day. We had leftovers for dinner tonight! No packaging to open!! There were TWO PAIRS OF SCISSORS IN THE SINK TONIGHT

Is he LICKING THEM? IS HE OPENING SECRET MEATS OF WHICH I KNOW NOT?? WHAT FOUL SCISSOR ACTIVITIES ARE TAKING PLACE THAT I AM CURSED TO FOREVER SCRUB THEM

WHAT THE FUCK
