"We-ell, the way I see it, you've got three choices," said Nobby.
"Yeah?"
"You can go and tell him you're not doing it..."
The panic in Colon's face was replaced by glazed gray terror.
"Thank you very much, Nobby," he said bitterly. "Let me know if you've got any more suggestions like that, 'cos I'll need to go and change my underwear."
"Or you could accept it and make such a screw-up of it that he takes it away from you..."
"You're doing this on purpose, Nobby!"
"Might be worth a try, Fred."
"Yeah, but the thing about screw-ups, Nobby, is that it's hard for you to be, you know, precise. You might think you're making a little screw-up and then it blows up in your face and it turns out to be in fact a big screw-up, and in those circumstances, Nobby, I'm sort of worried that what His Lordship might take away from me wouldn't just be the job. I hope I don't have to draw you a picture?"
"Good point, Fred."
"What I'm saying is, screw-ups is like...well, screw-ups is...well, the thing about screw-ups is you never know what size they're going to be."
Terry Pratchett, The Fifth Elephant

there's nothing to be ashamed of in enjoying books and television and such that's made for children, because you never stopped being the child who enjoyed children's things, you just became more of yourself in addition to that. that being said, I'm not putting the gun down until we finish the sopranos.

also really enamoured with agathas absolute inability to value tarot. intuition and interpretation, way too wishy washy for someone who lectured wanda about how long it fucking takes studying all the theory before you can do any moderately impressive magical acts

fellas is it gay to cross dimensional barriers in order to get to the person you were willing to sacrifice your life for and then arrive at his doorstep with tears on your face as you confess how much you've missed him??? asking for a friend

Also here is an interview snippet which I thought was interesting. I've never thought much about what his creative process might have been like. Also, I didn't realise that the panels he drew on were so much larger than what ended up in print. I mean, it makes sense, but I guess I always just assumed he drew up the squares exactly the way they looked in the end.

I cannot believe this is the first I am hearing about this, but Ranni is actually directly confirmed to be the younger sister of Radahn and Rykard in the original Japanese version of Rogier’s dialogue! This nuance is lost in the English translation, as we do not have specified words for older or younger siblings, so this detail must have been simply dropped by translators.
Thanks to @loca5335 for pointing out the Japanese translation and @takers-flames for checking the Chinese translation, which reflects the age distinction in the text as well!
