of the many injustices put forth toward the show by fans i think the most overall damaging and telling of a complete lack of critical viewership is the idea that sam riegel builds his characters with nothing more than the bit in mind. like you are only telling on yourself if you think characters like scanlan shorthalt and veth brennato are one-dimensional and depthless
#if im being exTREMEly generous i can maybe understand this view of scanlan if you started c1 and then gave up 30 episodes later#he played the long game with him more than any other and a lot of his growth could be looked at as shallow if you DIDNT watch til the payoff#but any time this opinion is used as a blanket over all of his characters including tary and even FCG.. like be serious#i mean at this point im definitely biased bc he is my favorite player at the table. However. that wasnt always the case#and even when i was myself writing some character choices off i NEVER applied that to the characters themselves. how can you??#seen sooo many ppl criticize him for making veth an alcoholic or scanlan irreverent & hedonistic as tho it’s only possible#to play these traits as shallow jokes or at best played out satire…. and then the same person will turn around#and praise how percy was built to be pompous & superior and jester immature & self-centered and caleb steeped in self-effacing hubris#why are these characters and their players given a near universal acceptance of nuance and acknowledgement of growth & healing#but SAMS CHARACTERS ARE NOT!!!!#this turned into such a rant but it bothers me SO much. everyone at the cr table is so goddamned talented#and takes the game as seriously as it deserves#so many more points i could argue but this is already so goddamn long no one is reading this far. i love sam and all of his characters <333#critical role#sam riegel#scanlan shorthalt#veth brennato#my posts

#bjk talks#bjk writing rambles#it's fine i think it's probably normal to only get writing motivation when i should be sleeping#this is totally fine#(i'm not really sure it's my best smut but i'm gonna finish it this week if it kills me)#(this isn't even the really big j/k smutfic this is the little one)#i'm being self-effacing here of course bc i am more like jaheira than i like to admit#HOWEVER#i am yelling at that lil voice in my head that takes the form of my disapproving parents#and saying SCREW IT I'M HAVING FUN :D#anyway i hope everyone else is having a nice night

magic having cars and motorbikes now isnt what bothers me. but i do have a sort of preference for, you know, depth.
"the Speedbrood aspires to become speed itself" fine. why. "the Rocketeers worship the BOOSTGOD, and hate the dead-stop-deity (actual names)." that's a joke not a plane. the alacrian quickbeasts-
#the alacrian fucking quickbeasts.#put your pussy into it wotc#come on#if you're going to do wacky races do it with sincerity!#worldbuild!#move me!#make me feel something! you can!#but no. surface level self-effacing storytelling at every turn#mtg#aetherdrift

am i allowed to go to bed early
am i allowed to be mad at myself
am i allowed to be disappointed
am i allowed to make art about pain
am i allowed to be afraid?
am i allowed to forget
am i allowed to do this wrong
am i allowed to pretend
am i allowed to be terrible
am i allowed to be wrong
am i wrong
this poem is about ocd.
#i feel like tagging this 'poetry' would he too pretentious#but maybe i'm under-valuing myself as usual#why does self-effacing irony lend legitimacy to a piece of art#affected authenticity?#or an instinctive shield against emotional vulnerability?

#a few ppl recommended Spirited to me this year and I tried but I couldn’t get past the 15 min mark bc the irony felt too crunchy and forced#like. lean into it!!! it’s a musical! it can be silly and a little self effacing but this felt like embarrassing self deprecation#musicals#if you’re going to cite parodies as your examples I want you to really think abt whether or not they seem invested in the art/comedy they’r#doing. bc I can’t think of any spoofy musicals that don’t.#like the effort is part of what makes the parodies enjoyable

What are ur thoughts on the discussions of whether lyrics and portions of atw10mv were written/added/amended more recently?
i must admit fuck the patriarchy was a bit of an icarus moment (first is from google books, second is search terms)


#asks*#shed have written it in dec 2010-march 2011 btw#i’m sure some of it was from the first few drafts#‘you who charmed my dad with self effacing jokes/ sipping coffee like you’re on a late night show’#seems like it could be a lyric on speak now#‘just between us did the love affair maim you too?’#also old taylor-y#but at the very least fuck the patriarchy was Not in there

Honestly it annoys me that pride, ambition, and generally having a big ego are always villainous/evil-coded personality traits because personally I think if you genuinely are a prodigy at what you do you are 100% within your rights, perhaps even deserving, of flaunting your skills and being proud of the fact you can do something that only a small fraction of other people can do. Is it even ego at that point if you genuinely are as good at your field/skill as you say you are? Are people not aware that becoming a prodigy at something is something that takes lifelong sacrifice and practice sometimes to the point of giving up on having a normal life, relationships, etc even potentially destroying your own health???? God I fucking hate how pride in your own skills and ambition are so villain coded all the time. As if it's evil to want to be good at something and be recognized for what you rightfully earned
#squiggposting#this is part of why i like pharma obviously lol but it's happened to me w#other blorbos ive had in the past#bc like full offense if you're capable of doing something like partially inventing the cures to 5 different terminal diseases#in only a few months/a year of research. or if you can do an organ donation and replacement surgery#with yourself as one of the donors. you literally ARE the best doctor who has ever lived#and you DESERVE to flaunt it bc. what fucking achievement is higher than that???#some feats demand recognition in my opinion. maybe it's just bc I've always been competitive#and from a young age enjoyed a (relative) degree of fame for being really good at certain things#ive always enjoyed being an object of awe bc bitch i spent my whole life working to be this good#do i hold it over ppl or treat them badly for not being as good as me? i admit i used to but i grew out of it#but the ego? certainly not. i think if you're good at something you should own it#i think if you're a prodigy and put your skills into doing good work youve earned your fame and recognition#this expectation of false humility we have is sooooo annoying#ohhhh boo hoo pharma is a little bit of an annoying asshole about being a better doctor than ratchet#the cures he helped design will save literal thousands of lives from now until the rest of time#but somehow the way he FEELS about it is more important than the CONCRETE POSITIVE GAIN he put into the universe?#and also in general i hate it when ppl assume that pride/ego and being kind towards others are mutually exclusive#in general i feel like i could write an essay about how self vs others is treated as a dichotomy#where it's assumed that in order to uplift others you have to self efface and diminish yourself#or if you flaunt yourself it automatically means you're putting down others. it's not true.#video essay topic for later lol

Did you know that sometimes, if you ask friends for assistance and support, they'll do it?
Anyway I'm actually getting traction on Chilchuck! I think I'm gonna have it ready by anime iowa!
