idk how other ppl learn to read characters but even when someone has very few lines, if they're not a few throwaway lines and have a smidgen of thought put into them, you can really deduct a lot of things from what they say without mountains of dialogue and array of actions they take.

cIaus, even Iucas via his few lines and interactive dialogue, is so easy to understand and learn what hes about from the dialogue you are given. it shouldnt be hard to mess him up

and even tho these are more active characters in the story with goals to achieve and story beats to hit, u rly can apply the same to lngo and 3mmet. u can make assumptions or deduct possible aspects about how they act from breaking down their dialogue and possible routine. some things might be completely speculative and pulled out of thin air but as long as it matches the characters general front its hard to go wrong

DA: The Veilguard Spoiler review pt1 - Blood Magic

alright let's do this. let's write an in-depth review of veilguard. this will be long and this will be negative and i might eventually say some good things but everything i say will be undermined with a 'BUT'.

its now been around a week since i finished the game and had some time to parse my thoughts and this is why i didnt enjoy the game; NOT why you shouldnt.

so dragon age has a very special place in my heart and i am %100 the kind that has DAO as their favourite game. i have played these games religiously, and let me prefix this by saying i was not hyped for this game, i wont lie and say i wanted bw to succeed or i hoped the game would be good etc etc. if i liked the game, it would be a surprise. alas.

so theres multiple reasons for that, but the canary in the mine for me had been the announcement on blood magic, and yeah i was not shocked after DAI but i was still disappointed. so lets start with blood magic:

Blood Magic

DA lore has changed alot over time, and just like the media it took inspiration from (ASOIAF) i was under the impression that it used unreliable narrators deliberately, just as theyve poked fun at the concept with bethanys tits. it made sense then that the people telling these stories didnt know much about blood magic therefore they couldnt explain it fully but we've known some things for certain, from the text. blood magic uses blood as its source of power instead of lyrium (blood=life force), what constitutes as blood magic is open to interpretation (i.e phylacteries), multiple groups outside of the 'civilised society' such as chasind are not so staunchly against it, knowledge on it can be passed down from a mentor and that mentor usually happens to be a spirit. it can be used to enact control over people in a literal sense and thats considered by the narrative of all DA games to be more reprehensible than burning someone alive.

now i will derail this but i swear im going somewhere with it. i grew up in a country with majority white people, some blond, most with exposed hair who lived in big cities with cobblestone roads and snowy winters and starbuckses, and who would consider themselves westerners. some religious practices i know less about than most christians know about their holidays.

where my grandma lived was at the bottom of a high slope, and once a year when we went to visit her id see a thick trail of blood trickle down from the waterway to pool on her street, and at that dinner the family (and neighbours, sometimes) would bring a myriad of dishes and we'd feast. i would see butchers shops clean their curbs with buckets of water, mopping red tinted liquid down a drain. when i grew older and we were visiting my mothers village i watched the men subdue and kill a cow that we were going to eat that night. i watched them skin it and separate the meat from its bones, explaining what parts of an animal is used for which dishes because it was their craft and a young girl showed interest. as people we always live with the knowledge that our lives depend on death, whether it be a plant or an animal. existence is not moral and clean, and death is messy. getting blood stains out of a fabric once a month is the lived reality of more than half the human population.

i was not raised religious, nobody in my close family were, i didn't feel any sort of way when those men started to pray around the cow but i knew why they did it, even if it was performative for some, for the rest they had to show respect. the cow was meant to represent somebody you cared about, offering it in their stead symbolically. it needed to be respected, it needed to be butchered without pain. save from one serving of meat, as was tradition, were donated to the food banks.

now im sure some of you are thinking 'no matter how you slice it, its still a brutal act. made more brutal by the audience deriving some form of moral superiority' and yes, i used to think that too, because what is a religious practice for them is a show to me. but it is the norm where i grew up, and in the end a cow is dead regardless because we need to eat. and some people who needed to eat more than us got to eat too.

somewhere in germany news break out that some immigrants were practicing unethical and unsanitary butcherings, you see the footage of men in kufi and puffy pants and women covered completely in black sheets get ushered out by police. they shout some things in a foreign language, speaking the name of their foreign god. they show a censored room covered in blood and gore.

so i have to ask now, when you play veilguard and see venatori torturing and exploding a halla into a puff of red smoke which image does it bring to mind, what do you think of when you hear 'ritual sacrifice'? you may not have noticed this parallel but your brain sure did, as it has been noticing for your entire life and counting, the same reason you cringe at the barbarity of people consuming raw flesh, painting their foreheads with blood, killing animals you would pet. its alien, its gross, its wrong.

i cant play this game and take it seriously with its mask yanked off, gloating about its lack of nuance every step of the way. when you hit people red stuff comes out, red stuff bad. killing bad. murder bad. that it extends more sympathy to a fantasy deer than it ever allows for living breathing people of its universe, faceless and primitive.

in other DA games there were people over there somewhere who enslaved others, built their entire civilization on the ruins of gods they cannot comprehend, practiced bloody sacrifices and rituals that doomed the world for their own power, and even in their homeland they are nothing but canon fodder to be murdered and gawked at. their traditions, religion, entire culture is less than a set dressing, because whatever grosses you out are the bad apples, because the good ones cant be anything else and still derive sympathy from the audience.

and its true, you need to be an exceptional writer to make that work, especially if you dont have any real life experience to pull from. you need to stain your hands a little, and be prepared to be called dirty.

but i see it, i see those news reports everywhere i look in the game, i see the streets being cleaned and scrubbed so the tourists wouldnt call them backwards people, unclean, less than.

ive never played a game so repulsed by and is uninterested in its own universe than DAV, in every line of dialogue i can feel it trembling in fear. my companions tell me i dont need to watch a deer getting butchered, i can look away and proceed to electrocute hundreds of masked men some of whom are talking about comically evil things like patricide.

this has always been a point of contention in the medium of video games as the most prominent way to engage with the world has been through violence, and for me the DA franchise has always managed to tackle this by allowing its main character to be messy. yes, hawke cleaves thru countless faceless raiders but theyre also an illegal immigrant trying to get by with nothing to offer to the world than their violence. warden is deliberately recruited for that same violence, the only purpose of their existence is to fight as theyre made to shed everything else from their old life. and still, still you play these characters as they are allowed to grow, heal, carve out a little space for themselves where they can laugh and joke with their peers. it is juxtaposed to that darkness in their lives that makes those moments precious.

'what is good?' the games asked, and they answered 'doesn't matter, the world can be a better place with them in it'

veilguard asks 'what is good?' and answers 'you are.'

it doesnt matter whether blood magic is bad lore-wise (and that discussion is irrelevant to this decision made by the devs), because it needs to be narratively. like tabloid news the entire premise of the story is built on it. it needs to be inaccessible to and shunned by your party and rook because they need to be 'good' and in contrast, your enemies need to be 'bad'

and like dominoes it retroactively reframes the moral stance of every game in the franchise.

so, yes, i just laughed when i saw that announcement. i didnt know what else to do. but hang on to your knickers because it gets so much worse...

Ek khat ek captain dost ke naam

@paapi I friend you for life

Your name "MAYUR" typically matches your personality , the elegant, regal and disciplined vibes you give off damn....

I'll nickname you "WILLOW" the reason well...

And your communication skills , accent , vocabulary , please don't mind but I wanna steal all that bw I already told you this have'nt I ???

Although I can express all this on a call or text too but , I am a writer (Aisa mujhe lagta hai) and writers don't speak or write they bleed ink on paper , so these are my feelings for you in the form of a letter....

So ye khat aapke naam from your friend Kaya ek kaviyitri aur lekhika....

You are the only one who actually understood my persona rather than trying to change it....

Someone who feels like a mentor

Someone who is a therapist to me (I am sorry but I had to write this)

Dear Peacock Mayur,

I hope this letter finds you in good health , I never nicknamed you again cause the one I gave you didn't approve it , but you attribute alot to a willow , The willow tree symbolizes flexibility . A big part of your purpose in this world is to learn, grow, and evolve through challenging times of adversity. The willow tree is capable of bending in outrageous poses without snapping..... And that's you these are the attributes of your personality....

I still vividly remember how we first interacted on the server , when you were praising me in the rp server and then me as usual talking about shivji and you saying about mahakaleshwar and yeah ofc the chaar dhaam yatra.... You know you can sponsor my chaar dhaam I won't mind

And then making a Spotify blend with you just to get a 99 percent match like damn I never get this high match with anyone still it would have been 100 percent if not for Kpop cause I don't listen to that music....

And then having a VC with you and the first thought I had after listening your voice , how can someone have such a beautiful voice truly euphonious and your accent let's not go there otherwise this letter would end in me fan-girling....

I just love to interact with you like how can someone be so mature and understanding....

And kindly drop the secrets cause I am in dire need of being mature.....

"You are someone who's existence will always be dear to me"

Our friendship was something which I didn't even expect and it was something I could never even think of but yeah the most beautiful friendships are unexpected.....

We are always together in everything although not physically but whenever you see the stars and moon remember that they bind me together with everyone and whenever you feel alone just look at them somewhere I am doing that too...

They bind me to you

You are one of the most supportive person out there , I mean whenever I talk to you it doesn't feel as if I only know you for days....

You feel like koi fariyad song soft melody after tiring rock music....

How can someone be so perfect in every sense I mean how....

I won't associate you with a fictional character , cause you are a like a man written by a woman, perfect in every sense...

These are your vibes according to me :-

I still have alot to know about you.... yeah I know I speak so much that you don't get the turn to speak....

You know how I am talkative af , clingy , moody , irritating and to an extent thodi si nakchadi hu but that's how I am , I know I irritate you alot but that's how I am and that's why people leave me , so sorry for all the times when I irritated you....

And yeah I will throw a kdrama at you although I don't watch any except one which I only know so I'll throw king the land at you cause that's the only I have watched and I dare you to do what you said I'll not spare you.....

Now imagine we met and you know my obsession with Polaroids so think these pics as them...

I know deep down somedays you might also feel as if you are alone as if things are not going the way you want them to , somedays you might also feel pretty exhausted but just remember that its life ups and downs are bound to come , you'll always be a part of my prayers....

If you were a colour I'd say you as sage green cause people with sage green personalities Often are found to be perfectionists, with the great admiration for details. That is why they tend to be good researchers. Winning arguments comes easy to them and their strong-willed character makes them unwilling to accept the authority..... And yeah according to me you have all these traits....

अजीब दास्ताँ है ये कहाँ शुर�� कहाँ ख़तम

I associate these lyrics to our friendship cause as I said unexpected in a way which I didn't imagine....

You are one of the most sweetest , kindest and beautiful being I ever met....

Last few days were tough for me so thank you for always being there for me and supporting me throughout....

I lost my faith in friendship way too early but thanks to you and few others that you revived it....

I don't know after writing this too I feel I am short of words , you have been there for me , for you friendships like this might not matter that much but for me it's something I'll cherish forever cause these aren't little things when I'll look back they'll be very beautiful memories....

Now imagine me playing a guitar and singing this song to you...

"Will you take a moment?

Promise me this

That you'll stand by me forever

But if, God forbid, fate should step in

And force us into a Goodbye

If you have children someday

When they point to the pictures

Please tell them my name

Long live the walls we crashed through

I had the time of my life with you"

I'll dedicate these lyrics to you.....

Just so you know I love you to the moon and back and will always appreciate and cherish your existence and our friendship.....

I'll dedicate these songs to you and it's voice notes well I'll send them to you....

Now I think I have spoken enough

So signing off Willow aka peaco Mayur

With love always

Kaya 💗

[dufferpuffer]

Just read about you okaying one of the anon ask about random ships. Because just like so many people I too like your analysis...

I know that this might be out of your usual circle of favorite characters. Or a little strange ship too...

But I always found it interesting to think about two rebels of rhe family. One from house of black and one from house of Weasley.

Sirius Black and Percy Weasley.

I think the fandom has slept on Percy's potential as a lead character for good story.

Harry dislikes percy right along ron and twins etc but if we see from certain angle he was nit wrong in not trusting dumbles. And he having trust in ministry and authority figures and not wanting to be part of a vigilante group is also not bad thing.

Him having fights with parents is also nothing new, we all at certain age think that we know better than them.

Percy is a gryffindor though. He didn't say no because he was scared to fight. He said no because he didn't like Dumbledore approach. Again understandable as order was full of teens and ya with bright future if not for albus pushing them to fight

Mr and mrs Weasley make it seem like they don't want their children to fight but since they are affected by the war we can't say them no too. But they did everything in front of children in ootp. R + h+ h will be the front warriors because of harry but twins and Charlie and bill do follow their parents' foot steps..

The dynamic bw Sirius and percy I would like to explore but my brain is not much help in it as to what will be the interaction be like.

I mean with Sirius having seen with his own eyes that under Dumbledore regime they are all like sitting ducks, dumbles not helping his own unlawful imprisonment situation, making things difficult for harry.

What if the two join forces.

I too dont like age gap romances but in Wizarding word people live more that 150 years so what is a 14-15 year age difference.

If you are irked about a romantic relationship bw the two than you can share your thought on them platonically joining forces to help each other...

Sirius has a unique situation because he understand what it feels to just move away from your family. That it is not all sunshine and roses. That it is a tough decision. He also has been wronged by order and it's leader by ignorance and indifference, same as percy who like a typical middle child feels left out.

Sirius knows that though ministry is useless, this time he also doesn't wants to bet all his chances of win on Dumbledore like last time...

If you are interested I will like to hear your thoughts 🤔💭

Ok, first of all - I do not mind age gaps. It would be pretty hypocritical if I did, since my partner is 17 years older than me lol I cannot blame Percy for fucking a hot old man when I, too, fuck the hot old men. I find the whole concept of 'age gaps being irksome' demeaning - not to mention rooted in sexism, homophobia and ableism. An adult should be able to love another adult. Period.

That being said - Percy and Sirius... an interesting concept.

Overall I think, while they have ALOT of similarities, they have some aspects that would grind against each-other. That doesn't mean I don't think they can work, I just think they have a hump to get over: - Sirius' judgemental nature and being a playful bully. - Percy's pride and protective nature (being like his mother).

Sirius is an understanding, compassionate guy... but there are things that crawl right up under his skin: - Like 'abandoning' the people you love. He isn't an idiot, he can tell Percy hasn't abandoned his family, but he would think he is wasting his time at the Ministry of all places rather than actually being there physically and emotionally for them. - He also can't stand stiffs. His parents, his brother - even Molly herself, doesn't want the kids to do anything... He is a firecracker. He likes to poke sleeping bears and break some rules. - Percy is proud, to a ridiculous level. He will close his eyes to the truth in order to keep pushing. He has decided on what he will do - and even if everyone he loves says no. He has the childish desire to be a Big Grown Boy which leaves his ego easily bruised... and Sirius would find that naive, and perhaps a little too much like his brother. Percy may be an adult, but he acts like a snotty little brat.

The main dynamic I could imagine them having - Is Sirius being annoying, like a third Twin, someone that pokes fun at Percy's expense for a laugh... but with a burning, caring desire to not let Percy become another Regulus... or another HIMSELF. Facing the pain of having to lose a sibling before he has the chance to reconcile with them - just because he was stubborn.

I think Sirius would want to SAVE him from his own mistakes... and for Percy, having yet another person see his ambition as a mistake would be aggravating. Sirius' earnestness with his concern would harm his pride. And that's an interesting dynamic to work through. Perhaps, forced to abandon his pride - like being fired from the Ministry - would open Percy up to listening to an old dog who has seen the 'truth' of the world...?

Maybe spending more time with Sirius and seeing how the Ministry has treated him - how they continue to treat him - would disillusion him to the Ministry. He believes when his family says Voldemort is back, and he believes Sirius when he says he was innocent... and so he finally has to make himself wake up from his dreams and put his burning passions to a different goal.

Sirius is trapped in his house... but Percy is free. Maybe it starts as just running errands, but turns into a team. The both of them working together - maybe Percy even working within the Ministry, spying for Sirius specifically. Spending all that time alone together, moping about becoming jaded, drinking about their dreams going up in smoke... I mean if you want intimacy or romance that's a perfect launchpad.

I know in the extended text below its alot of negative stuff but I would DEVOUR a good fic about them. I would LOVE that. If you are planning on writing one WRITE IT - and if you aren't... any recs?

Extended thoughts below (900ish words)

Firstly... I love Albus. I stand by him and most of his decisions... though I agree that Sirius is probably not the biggest fan and for good reasons... but I don't think we actually see him disagreeing with Albus much in canon...? I might be forgetting something. Sirius is DEFINITELY keen on the 'child-soldier' thing. He FIGHTS for Harry and the kids to be involved when they are underage. If Percy wants his entire family out of the war, especially his siblings... Sirius wants them in. An interesting conflict.

~~~

I don't think Percy didn't join the Order because it was 'full of teens' - it wasn't. It had 3 teens that visited sometimes - and they were kept in the dark until they were 17. Dumbledore wasn't making child soldiers, aside from Harry - but what choice does he have? "...with bright futures if not for albus pushing them to fight" They won't have ANY future if they don't fight for their lives. By the end of GoF it isn't a question of if, but when: When will Harry be forced by fate to fulfill the prophecy? When will the Burrows' protective charms fail and expose them? When will Hermione fight for her life as a muggleborn? These events are guaranteed. Not hypothetical.

I know this is a tangent, but Albus fought in possibly BOTH Muggle World Wars and three Wizarding wars. He knows the horrors of war. He tried to shelter Harry, to keep him at arms length, unaware of politics, hidden in safe places... but he couldn't do that forever. Especially not when the Ministry was unhelpful, most of the Wizarding World was blinded by propaganda - and he was dying.

Shit I talked about Albus too much again, what was I saying? Oh yeah - I don't think Percy didn't join the order because of that. I think he simply had faith in the Ministry and Pride in himself. His older siblings left the country, leaving him as the eldest. His father stayed in a low-paying job he was constantly putting at risk... and wasn't trying to be promoted. He wanted to turn his families life around. He LOVES his family.

~~~

While Sirius knows how difficult it is to leave family you have a complicated relationship with - he left his family because he rejected them. He numbed himself to their fates the best he could.

Percy left because he loves them. He wants to support his little brothers and sister. He wants to make his Mother proud and earn his fathers respect. He was going to work his ass off in these turbulent times and work his way up to being Minister of Magic.

...Sirius would think that is very cute. He is jaded. "You really think Cornelius Fudge got to his position through 'hard work'' and 'honest effort'...? Oh, you sweet boy... how naive." But I also think it would bamboozle him a little: "You love your family, but you left them? You aren't fighting with them? You're messing about at the ministry instead of being their knight...? You're being a cute little secretary or whatever to the same old bastard that pushed for me not to get a trial??" Sirius is loyal to a fault. He would acknowledge Percy's drive as admirable but think he is putting it all in the wrong place. Sirius could see Percy's heart, his intent, his love - in a way that others don't... but he doesn't relate. Percy's heart is good - but he's off chasing silly dreams. This isn't the time for dreams. This is war.

~~~

Percy was a proud prefect and Head Boy - exactly the sort of rule-enforcing snob Sirius would terrorize for fun. That's not a deal-breaker or anything - but Sirius is more like Fred/George. An interesting dynamic since Percy can't stand bullying.

~~~

Percy has faith in the Ministry, enough to stick with them all the way until the last book - and thus, has little faith in Sirius Black. He isn't going to out him, but he doesn't see him doing much either: 'Sitting drinking in your mothers house... Not exactly trying to clear your name, are you?' He might even feel some embarrassment for how the Ministry failed Sirius, which could come out in all sorts of victim-blamey ways.

~~~

Percy doesn't have many people on his side, but he doesn't feel like he NEEDS them on his side. He is a big tough man all on his own! Sirius might show him compassion and some understanding, but I don't know if Percy would care to listen to him. He is a bit independent man now - and, for awhile, people trying to show him compassion and understanding might make him feel patronized.

~~~

Just the image of Percy sending back his christmas jumper, disowning his family... Sirius would go off his rocker. He knows what family pressure is like - but he also knows what the Weasley dynamic is. He knows what Percy is pushing away from and it is pathetic. They love him in all the ways Sirius' family never did, and for Percy to reject that would hurt Sirius, too. "...You made your mother cry, Perce. And Molly isn't like my mother."

~~~

Also sorry this took awhile I wanted to both give it good thought - and shit got busy, I fostered an injured bird for awhile

[pumpumdemsugah]

The jonathan majors news is wild. The other stories coming out the woodworks too like I can’t believe they let that sociopath run around for this long. I really hope the victim is okay because strangulation? Nah that’s a murderous man like we need to bring back stoning. And now all the black men who were bitter af BW were thirsting over him are suddenly his number one fans. Sickos. Scariest part is seeing black women still going up for him after all this because ?? he’s bulky? pander to the people and mention soft black boy joy a couple of times and straight BW will be locked in for life it really is so easy. I once tweeted he wasn’t all that in the face and his acting was mid and within minutes had rabid fans and one journalist (!) in my mentions telling me i was a white mans whore who would die in 7 days lmao. Mind you im a black lesbian 😭 and all men are mid but I was just shocked when I finally saw who all the fuss was about is all. The bitch could be my great uncle Cleotis. I really don’t get how the commitment to hetero patriarchy is so strong like the takes I’m seeing rn are blowing me. It’s like they think if they let these men step on them they’ll see them as equals yet time and time again that hypothesis is proven wrong. These negros don’t give a fuck!!

Hollywood and society don't care when men are violent and so many Black women cannot separate themselves from Black men. There's a reason a Black woman academic came up with the word male identified and Black women casually came up with the word pick me because that describes the mentality of many Black women. Many Black women are so deep in the trenches of patriarchal thinking.

Lmao white man's whore that will die in 7 days is so specific and funny. It sounds like you were being cursed 🧿🧿

Over and over again I feel like for Black women in particular it's so important to have a woman and Feminist first framework because alot of us will put the most violent of Black men before ourselves. No me! My brothers know I'll call the police on them if they shout. We don't have guns here and I'm not fighting any many. I'm 5'5

How many people know about the modern Chosens? Like among their respective groups?

ooo a good question! I think all the Kanto + Johto + Hoenn are the main three regions that recognize it the most, due to them being smaller knit regions. But the real question is; are the general public referring the them as just 'the chosen one(s)'/'hero(s)'/'savior(s) ect ect., or do they know they're Chosens with a capital C. Easy answer, obviously people don't really know what Chosens actually are other than chosens themselves (who even they only get the basics gist of-) and those Chosens are close to. but like let's take Lance for example; you ask him what a chosen is and he could only give you a basic response of "they are trainers that have earned the favor of our regions legendaries." and that's it. Not only was there alot of confusion during the first 4 gens but also the general consensus that 'hey maybe we should be hush hush about this while there's evil orgs. around' which only works about 60% of the time. if i haven't said it yet i have mostly determined that by Swsh/SV; the Chosens are established- but they're as established as they can be with only ~25 years of experience and collaboration with everyone. At least by BW/2/XY they've been aware that some type of pattern exists with new chosens possibly popping up every 2~3 years This popped up while i was writing but Alola is probably the most lax region and the one with the most history on chosens aside from Sinnoh (well. saying sinnoh very loosely because if some ancient ruin isnt ruined beyond repair its vague as fuck). But with the Tapus having what i think is the most human version of Chosens, and just general closeness to the main legend in general (Lillie being a Nova) and just. Alola being a chill region and culture for the most part, it's the best region for chosens

Tech talk

Tomorrow is kickoff. How do I feel? Kinda. Okay? I fetch a flu on the last days and my credo "do this or die on the road" starts to kick in. But on the other hand we always get a flu when we don't need it, eh? And when had we ever needed one? Anyway.

So far I wrote quite some Blog posts about how to find routes and plan stupid stuff. Stupid, because many things will not work once you start the trip anyway. But planing is still a good thing (isn't it?) because at least you learn about the possible options. And knowing the options is always a good thing!

But lets talk about something else: The Tech!!!!11!elf

It's so tech!!

I want to travel some 'roads' that are not very common for mid Europeans to hit. And what do you do if you want to know more but have no friends that ever leaves the home town? You reach out for social media and videos. And you probably had already noticed that I'm not quite a fan of vtubers and traveling youtubers. I would love to rant a bit more about them. But not now.

I still enjoyed to see the scenery. To see the locations. See the bus or the trains and having the opportunity to create my own, silly incomplete picture of what it is like. And so I decided that I also want to capture media! At least this time. Because last time, I did not even shot an single picture of anything in more then 1 year of living in Xi'an.

What to do with this media. Well. I don't really know! Will I just place them online? Maybe? Make youtube Videos that violate alot of copyrights? Maybe! Make fun on other popular vtuber content that made me cringe? Hell yeah! We will see!

(obviously I will most likely do nothing of all that!)

Timelapse

The main brain fart that made me plan this trip was to see and feel the 'world' in between two places. And I noticed that some bored highway guys made timelapse videos of driving from a to b.

And while timelapse videos can have this 2007-warcraft-rouge-in-bw-with-linking-park-music feeling, they also can be interesting. Plus they ripe like wine. They are usually just showing the raw thing. No filters, no effects. No 'selection' of what to see. And I kinda like this. Nobody might be interested into a timelapse now. But it might be interesting later.

Anyway. So I decided to try that. And noticed, that there are not really affordable 'timelapse' Devices on the marked o.o?

Mobile Phones can do the trick. If you use some nice apps, they even could do it well. But for how long? What do you think how long will your power last? Mobile phones are small computers. They are not meant to record something for 4,8,24,48 hours non stop. And im pretty sure that most of the apps had not been written for this kind of 'professional usage', too.

Cameras are bigger devices. The can have a lot more capacity on board and the image quality should be nice. Okay. Do you want to spend more then 500 bucks on them? I .. dont know. Isn't it overkill? Another thing is that this cameras are huge. How to place them in public transport and let them run for 24h without getting robbed?

Build something! Yeah. Sure.

I got my hands on a cheap gopro7. When it comes to timelapse feature, there is absolute nothing positive to get something more modern. It shoots in 1080p and, to my big surprise, the build in power supply was able to last 12 hours straight without external supply. It is smal and I can easily tape it where-ever I want. With one picture taken all 5 seconds there is no shaking visible, even if I tape it straight to the casis of a bus, the picture remains very smooth.

360° Pictures

Why isn't this a thing? You shoot a picture and people can look around the whole place! ITS AMAZING! Fuck selfie with Ninni-Graniny in front of a Town sign. See the whole place! You can even upload them on google 'streetmap'!

See that tiny blue bubbles? Klick on them to see what this part of 'desert' looks like.

✅ Thats amazin! How could you not love this to look around all by yourself?!

❌ Serious cameras that make 360° pictures our of the box start at much moneyz

✅ But every modern smart phone can do that out of the boy if you take multiple pictures!

🆗 And It may looks not very professional for many reasons. You should watch an tutorial for better results

(who told you emojis would look nice on this? Grandmother whatsapp?)

Conclusion

So yeah. I will try both. Making some 360° pictures of locations that have none available, and also record the time lapse. We will see how it turns out!

So idk if this has been done but I feel a rant coming on.

Hot take:

BW BLACKARACHNIA IS THE BEST BLACKARACHNIA

So I'm gonna go ahead and try my best to explain why Beast Wars Blackarachnia is, in my opinion, the best well rounded version of the character (at least in the cartoons)

I'll start by talking about TFP Blackarachnia, then TFA Blackarachnia, and ending with BW Blackarachnia (with corresponding colors)

- TFP Blackarachnia

Blackarachnia (Airachnid) is essentially at the bare minimum I think, a mostly one dimensional character with some albeit grand moments.

For whatever ungodly reason they made her a sort of weird hybrid? of Vehicon/Predacon(Insecticon)instead of just a straight Predacon, which I've always found odd (was it to make her name a pun with Airachnid? Was it to make her cool/modern? Idk and frankly, it's eh to me)

Her role as a villain to me is somewhere between Rita Rupulsa and Terrorsaur(BW); she tries to be the big bad but at the same time she's also just a one off character who you could dispose of (at least i think so) And obviously the writers did too since they booted both her and the other Insecticons off to some remote planet.

All in all, last place for Airachnid.

- TFA Blackarachnia

Blackarachnia in Transformers Animated is what I like to consider "Diet Blackarachnia"; she's not bad, but she isn't the original.

She has a thematically integral backstory connected to both Sentinel and Optimus (it also adds to the already apparent tension between the two) she has a much more active presence as a villain in the series then other Cons (at least the primary group of Decepticons)

My beef with her is that compared to the other two most her character development is sidelined to keep up the "Tragic Backstory" and the "Will they Won't they" with Optimus. Keeping her identity a secret from Sentinel was great, her progression to creating the Predacons with Waspinator was fantastic, but aside from that she's fairly one note I think (alot of her best moments when she's with Optimus) Overall, I give her a 7/10 cause she's still better then Airachnid.

- BW Blackarachnia

See, here's the big difference between the 3 spiders.

Airachnid isn't around often enough to be given character development.

Blackarachnia (TFA) had some character development, albeit not much since she mostly revolved around Optimus and Sentinel)

Blackarachnia (BW) actually developed from the very start of the show, was around much more often then the other two, acted as an ACTUAL antagonist to both Maximal and Predacon, and all around had much more growth in the show.

A Protoform having been reprogrammed, they couldve just had her be a one off side character with not many traits (like how Infernos only real character traits are "FoR tHe CoLoNy!!!" and "My queen") but they actively made her into her own person with her own goals.

She served as a threat to both Maximals and Megatron on multplie occasions, didn't play the "Will they/won't they" game with any characters, and actually got one of the best internal struggles in the latter season of BW.

The idea that she could be reprogrammed as a Maximal but at the cost of losing who she actually is is a REALLY GOOD plot idea (though I wish we got more of it then just the one episode)and her skepticism isn't out of the blue either, as its believable that she (a naturally distrusting person) would think Optimus and the others would be all for sending her offline, despite how Silverbolt would actively try and revent that.

Also can I just take a moment to appreciate just how fantastic her relationship is with Silverbolt? Like yes the "Enemies to Lovers" trope is overused but THIS IS NY FAVORITE VERSION.

Silverbolt is, to say the least, and outsider to the Maximals (hes like Dinobot with the honor and chivalry) but he actively keeps this up despite no one else doing the same. And part of that chivalry is not hurting Blackarachnia and I just appreciate how out of place it is how strong his moral compass is.

And this helps build the relationship with Blackarachnia since, when the two are abandoned during that one storm and he actively stays by her to make sure she gets out safe, despite being an enemy.

And this rubs off on her no matter how little she'll say it.

I don't need to tell you the rest of this since you've all heard it, but I love their relationship I wish someone would see me like Blackarachnia sees Silverbolt ngl

To end this already long enough rant,Blackarachnia in BW is by far the most well developed (in more ways then one *wink wink*)the most plot driven, and all in all the most well rounded version of the character.

Also side note if also like to point out how in Beast Machines she is one of the only characters to actually stay true to themselves and not be compromised but the writers

@littlemisstfp @thenightmaregrrl

Change my mind I dare you.

#camelsurf #a_dragons_lair #vault_a This is a rewrite of a post I wrote a couple of days ago - this time it'll not be as complete and revealing but I rewrite the main part of what the picimage is about... ...as being "bench-mark" himself, I am (in a plutocratic way) a scool-building, classroom or some extraordinary booth for some students in economics to be tested or the other way test myself in what is an illegal duel of who's the man in finance... or similair to that. And who's the "puppy" when it comes to dog-fighting in Manhattan Bull's district - or the "wall-street"-bullfigther... the one running away from the furious creature... or he who kills the one's that trying to make an original bank-buildning (or "the vault") mad/to blow up himself or go in to an disillusional mode and take medication for his "disorder". "Pains-taking animal-tests" they would call it in Swedish... ...in this case, with the aim for doing today's "Yuppies" ("Financial Puppies") into mad men trying to win in a homosexual warfare-tactic way. A tactic where you don't "show yourself" by only visualise you "physical presence" and trying to use the fag-goat's homofiering to fuck your own thoughts into a fighting bulls head and sound cocky at the same time. That "dark fires" (in the nether regions) won't avail you... you have to go through the wall of isolation and open up what's on your mind - or debate like a man, you put your words in writing and sign it and stand up for it as your opinion until other opinions comes well at hand. The you stand up for the sake that it WAS your previous opinions - but you redemt, thought again and made that ol' veal spinning, for (one of) the first tiome in your life. The Dragon's Lair is deep down into the "nether regions" (a little bit deeper than the tiger's cage in a Zoo I earlier reported a news article about) - and the TV-show in Sweden wearing the same name was all about investors with big money who could see futures in some inventions or new services on a global market. The problem in many cases is that the maturity and eyesight of an investor might not reach beyond money-profit or lack the awareness of where the world of banking/currencies and economy as a whole is going. They live within a currency/bank with an account they not know the very first origin of - how "money" itself come to be... and where the lack of seriousity is taking the trading/business future into. "Financial puppies" may sit in rows with their portfolios in their knees as they were students (they are studying figures alot in finance today) in the benches of an old classroom - where some look into what a neigbouring class-mate are doing or having as private successful secrets in his own "desk" (called "hacking" someone's software today) - but will they pass the test or even graduate if "financial morale" going into a "moras" (morale failure-mode) and every coin/bill/note possible on Earth will loose it's 'function' (OBS! Not 'value' here - but why/how it once was built)? Noone will be available to resurrect a civilisation as hig as today modern standards again if that is where the enemy of the state (and it's justice-function) will try to take this case in/with psychiatry... that's already a given fact if you see 7 000 years of the function of everything in every direction. A "clairvoyancy" (a "clear view") given you (earned by not doing wrong and only go forward for a right cause in a life's struggle) as being the one with both Bull's Eye and having the Eye of the Tiger, born with the two starsigns in western + eastern zodiacs and at the same NOT being the fony adventurer (with "special glasses") in some Pyramidical-Quest and that "Hollywood-girl" of a psychiocrat (cooperator with state thought-police) on film. That make every psychiocrat into a profit-tor on other peoples minds/brains - a dangerous future if the-y who rule think "to hell with it" and rather make what's been done fall than forcing through a court-trial worth naming to reinstate the validation for a governmental structure that once was in democracies - and NOT go for Anarchy-mode (a "Total Fall Down") as a futuristic solution for thinking that 'ignorance' (towards cause and effects from what has happened) is a "bless" - when such a thing (a "bless") NEVER has happened... from any "reliable source". I see hell in a larger scale if "law" isn't resurrected in 3-4 nations I've passed through over the last 18 months or so (even resurrected within the european union) in exile and in need of this "cross-border"-protection against Anarchy-attacks (with a massdestructional-weapon noone want to experience - think Los Angeles-riots in a never ending scale here, "The Walking Dead" and the "calmness" you see in that series comes after a (1) year or so - first a "Mad Max-hell" for 8 months in a row right where you live). If you're an anarchist - think again... think twice. Investors and profitors are not the same nature, not the same maturity/experience-grade and fighting as a "bad looser" (has been seen) is a wish to "send it all to hell"... and your writing your wishing-list to a Father Christmas now... I can't understand what the hell it was someone had sent over to me - but it ain't any of my own creations... it was as we say in swedish "-only to compact it... and throb it until it's dead". A grimreaper's self-defence in an anarchist-attack... someone wished to profit on your own death... and that was once the "reception" of another starsigns "strawman"-whore... a "girl" with 110 personalities - and you couldn't remember anyone of them from before. The starsign called himself "Ralf" in a swedish lawyer's so revealing song about a "fifth" birthday. A "Viva la Bam"-warning in Starwars and were you yourself might not be able to imagine to be LESSER than five years old...? But as ZZTop sings it, it'll be over in a minute... if you're a Rough Boy and can "keep it up" or can "enforce it" (the law) as they say. Future will tell... there's an argument of who/what is really a "crown-witness" in this Valley of Darkness/Dark Lord's domains (it's 'origin' as a title then that means). Is it someone who shall "crown" someone, someone who knows currency/ban-king - or the "queen to be" itself (in this case the "wife's wifes", Lucia herself)? Investors for a future "wedding-marsch" are wanted (Dead or Alive) - to walk down an aisle with someone for (atleast) 700 days in a row, to recreate Lucias "two-handed (bw) sword", will need it's financial support/investments during the "process" itself... to make a "wo-mb" noone seen before... a life-rescuer for a womenhood "going down" they say... ...an end and a counter-force towards a head-eating lifestyle (on the women-side) in the future.

Can I turn my health bills from a car wreck into my health insurance?

I'll try to make this as short as possible. I was hit by another car, who fled the scene but I was able to get her license plate, made and model of her car. Her insurance is covering the body damage for my car but I'm having problems with the medical part of all this. In all, I have had two visits with my doctor and he sent me to the hospital for xrays. I have whip lash and nothing else. I live in Kentucky, which is a no-fault injury state (I have no idea what that means). The other driver's insurance company is not going to pay for my injuries since they are less than $1000. Which means I have to turn it in to MY car insurance company and pay my $1000 deductable or pay out of pocket, which will be about $800.

Why is our group health insurance so much more expensive than getting an individual plan privately?

My husband gets insurance through his work, and they take out $170 a week (he gets paid weekly). So that totals about $730 a month for us and our kids plus maternity benefits. What confuses me is if we were to drop that insurance and get an individual plan with the same company, same deductible, same co-pay, including maternity benefits (exactly the same plan) it would run us about $440 a month. I thought that the whole point of getting on a group plan was that it would be cheaper. I would be okay with it being the same as private but it makes absolutely zero sense to me that it would be almost twice as much... Anybody want to explain? Or are they just screwing us over?""

We pull off to the side, see no damage to the truck, but a huge gash in the side of her car. We decide to leave, since the only damage is hers. The next morning, she goes to the body shop to get the damage assessed. They tell her it is going to be over $4000 to repair. She decides to file it with insurance, saying that she had left her car parked on the street, and found it this way, assuming it was a hit and run in the opposite direction. Had she asked me before doing this, I probably would have advised against lying about it, but she has. So, the insurance inspector is coming to assess the damage in the next few days. My question is, how rigorous are these inspections? Will these guys be able to look at a gash in the side of her car, and tell that it was inflicted by her sideswiping a truck, not the other way around?""

Cheating on motor insurance claim?

HI All, my relative incidentally hint the few new motors in in a motor shop which selling new motor. The standing motors fall down each and another. It only cause few scratches on the motors cover, but the boss asking big replacement cost. So, my relative decide to make report for insurance claim. By the time waiting for police to take picture, the shop owner and his worker bring out the hammer and hammering motor for further damage, I guess they want to make some money beside claim to insurance company. Luckily I had took some picture on the slightly damage motors before the police. The question is where should I send the slightly damage on motors photo? The police don't border about the picture that I had, they had the serious damage on motors picture. Can we do further damage on our vehicle if accident happen to have more claim? Like damage on car bumper during accident, and we damage the signal light on our own to have new one, since we can claim to insurance? Summit the photo to insurance adjuster is just a waste because they are close to motor shop. What can we do?? Any advise? Thanks""

Can I turn my health bills from a car wreck into my health insurance?

I'll try to make this as short as possible. I was hit by another car, who fled the scene but I was able to get her license plate, made and model of her car. Her insurance is covering the body damage for my car but I'm having problems with the medical part of all this. In all, I have had two visits with my doctor and he sent me to the hospital for xrays. I have whip lash and nothing else. I live in Kentucky, which is a no-fault injury state (I have no idea what that means). The other driver's insurance company is not going to pay for my injuries since they are less than $1000. Which means I have to turn it in to MY car insurance company and pay my $1000 deductable or pay out of pocket, which will be about $800. Someone I work with mentioned that I can turn the bills into my health insurance company for them to cover it. Is that an option? I'm not at all familiar with any of this b/c this is my first experience having to deal with car insurances. I know it doesn't matter how I feel, but I'm really ticked that someone can hit my car, flee the scene, cause injuries to me, and then I am the one responsible to pay for the medical care. Does anyone have any experience with this? Can I turn this into my health insurance to avoid paying the $800 that I don't have? Thank you.""

""Car insurance question. Help desperately needed, please!?""

Here's the situation. Before I start here, I will say I have never sold a car/transferred insurance in my life until now (I'm 37) and I'm panicking. (Please don't laugh; I am somewhat mentally disabled and have a hard time understanding business side of things). Please bear with me: I have a 2000 Chevrolet Malibu with 178,000 miles on it. Last Friday, my husband's brother decided to give his 2005 Hyundai Elantra (53,000 miles) to us as a free gift. We decided to sell the Malibu to some friends of ours (with whom we have been friends for quite a few years). My friends have already paid us and they have a Bill of Sale and next week we are getting a duplicate of the Chevy title in the mail (because we lost ours), at which time we will transfer. Here is where the confusion begins: My mother-in-law (who is a retired State Farm insurance agent) drew up a Bill of Sale that indicated as its last sentence at the end, Buyer will show proof of liability insurance at the time the car is received (or something like that; I don't have the Bill of Sale in front of me). We saw our friends today to get the Bill of Sale notarized (they already paid for the car; we're just waiting for the title for the Malibu to arrive via mail, as mentioned above). Their insurance agent is about 90 miles away, I find out, and will need pictures of the car. Our friends insist that my mother-in-law is just being a mom since we're new at such a transaction (our friends have owned and sold boats, cars, etc., so they are experienced at this, too), meaning that she's being overcautious by saying they need to present proof of liability insurance at the exact time I give them the keys to the car. So, once I give them the title and the keys, are they responsible for when they get the car insurance? My Hyundai is covered through my insurance agent (my mother-in-law called them and got coverage on it already), but she insists that I am not to get insurance verification on the Hyundai until the friends show proof of their insurance on the Malibu after they get possession of it. Is that correct, or is my mother-in-law just being overcautious? (I would think that once I switch the Malibu title to my friends' name and give them the keys, that would relieve me of any responsibility any longer to the Malibu). Help me, please. I am so confused; I have my mother-in-law telling me one thing, and my friends telling me another. Both sound correct. So would I be right if I did these (in this exact order): 1) switch the title over to their name & give them the keys to the Malibu. 2) call my insurance agent and report that I sold my Malibu, and ask them to type insurance vertification for the Hyundai. (would I have to be present in person for them to type the verification for the Hyundai? Also, would my report of me selling the Malibu mean that they would cancel the insurance on it immediately?) I am sorry this is so lengthy; I tried to explain this the best as I could. I just want to do what is correct in the eyes of the law.""

Will my insurance go up over one speeding ticket?

I live in Pennsylvania and have Traveler's insurance paid by my parents. About 2 days ago I got a speeding citation. The officer who pulled me over said they clocked me going 74MPH in a 55MPH zone. I did not dispute this because I know I was speeding and who could have missed the huge signs with the posted speed limit. Anyway I am only 17 years old. This is the first time I have ever been pulled over or got in any trouble on the road. Prior to this I had a perfect driving record. My dad has not gotten any traffic violations in over 30 years and my mom has never gotten any violations of any kind. My older sister who is 18 (also on our Traveler's insurance) has a perfect driving record as well. Do you think our insurance rates will go up considering this is my first ticket and everyone in my family has a PERFECT record except for the ticket of my dad's?

I'm not really academically inclined but I've been trying to understand black feminism ideas as I enter my 20s. I find that watching videos even of poets or writers(nikki giovanni, morrison,baldwin) really helps. I've read Crenshaw and I have a few masterosits saved but si there anything you've found to be a good starter? I've been looking into lectures as well. ATP I think anyone who refuses to learn and regurtitates BS on social media is doing real harm. Mostly sad for BW who do this though.

Not all the books I'm mentioning are about Black women exclusively but they have perspectives and insights I think are good so you don't end up with dumb repackaged views. Also I didn't find them to be difficult reads. Most things by bell hooks is good tbh. I think she's a great starter.

Black looks is a good introduction and not a very long book either. Ain't I a woman is also good. I know I've read more of her stuff but I genuinely cant remember the titles 🤣 but there's a reason people say read bell hooks

I really enjoyed Colonise This! It has lots of different essays by women of colour.

On photography by Susan Sontag. It's about the gaze and photography and I really enjoyed the part about Diane Arbus

Heart Of The Race: Black Women's Lives in Britain. Not really about feminist concepts but it sheds a light on the lives of Black women in the UK between the 60s and 70s

Female Chauvinist Pigs: Women and the Rise of Raunch Culture: Woman and the Rise of Raunch Culture. It's more about Raunch Culture back in the mid 00s with a focus on Britain but I think some of the stuff mentioned fits well now

Sister Citizen by Melissa Harris Perry. I'm still getting through it. It's well written I just haven't finished it

Patricia Collins has alot of amazing books about Black Feminism I've been meaning to read like Black Feminist thought

None of these books are particularly hard to understand and assumes you're a beginner so you don't have to go in not knowing what terms mean for the most part.

It sounds like you're off to a good start. Personally I like audio books as long as the person doesn't have a disgusting voice lol. It's a nice way to learn something new if you're doing a mindless activity so you can focus. There aren't enough audiobooks of older Black Feminist stuff unfortunately

I use to read these black female focused blogs back in the late 00s early 2010s but the names have changed and I don't remember lol . I use to like crunk feminist collective blog back in the day but I haven't read anything on there in years so I can't really say if they're any good but the older stuff should still be there

I feel like as long as you're taking in new ideas be it video , audiobook or reading it helps you not have this very narrow social media focused view of the world. Idk about podcast tbh so I can't really say anything

I definitely agree anyone that refuses to learn is causing harm and lots young Black women on social media that claim to be feminist are doing that
