I don’t really like the word queer sorry

I watched Scott’s Real Life video first because he and Joel are the main two I watch, which is ironic because of their ongoing in-game feud and very different personalities, video styles, general vibes, etc., but I digress.

My first thought when I saw the title was “Yay, another life series!” My second thought, upon seeing Joel standing in the circle, was “Oh my gosh, Joel, three SMPs at the same time? Why does he do this to himself?” Then, after watching for a bit, I was like, “Okay, never mind, this an April Fools video, still fun though.” And then I proceeded to enjoy the silliness and binge everybody else’s videos.

Let me tell you, watching Martyn’s video before Scar’s and hearing Scar yell that he’d fallen out of his wheelchair, I was really worried, and I immediately searched for Scar’s video to make sure he was okay. I’m glad he’s alright, I bet that was scary.

On another note, do y’all consider Cleo’s win cannon? Cause I do! Go Cleo, she deserved this.

I’m kinda sad it wasn’t Joel or Jimmy though, I got really excited when I realized how well Jimmy was doing. He got, what, 7th place? The canary curse has officially been broken!

This post has gotten way longer than I intended. Oh well.

...only Hugo's gothy insistence on how Love and Death are Basically The Same Thing is giving me patience with this ; I really do enjoy the sort of Presence of Hugo's very powerful and always Potentially Deadly Love, it's at least more interesting to have the stakes be Life And Death

and I like this bit so much:

The permanent and the immutable are persistent. People live, they smile, they laugh, they make little grimaces with the tips of their lips, they interlace their fingers, they call each other thou, and that does not prevent eternity.

the insistence that the grand and the minute are the same and inextricable is one of my favorite running themes in the book; I can't be mad about seeing it again <3

...but I don't want to listen to teenagers flirt oh my gooood please let's move on Hugo

I don't really have much evidence of the fact that I was at least mildly aware of what Guilty Gear was in 2014 other than that Holy Orders was so bitchin that I pirated downloaded an entire album that's survived the death of 1 external hard drive and about 3 computers since

Guilty Gear sleeper agent

its been more than a decade at this point but the line from the Arrow pilot where the doctor tells Moira "You have to understand that the the son you lost might not be the son you got back" still lives completely rent free in my head and still sometimes gets me like a gut punch when I remember it. just Ouch

Even beating Odor of the Day...? Maybe I should watch that short, then

I ACTUALLY NEED TO REWATCH THAT ONE!! i've only ever seen it one, and it was the HBO Max version... which, for whatever reason, cuts out all of the sneezes and so i was viscerally confused as to why the short had no dialogue except for the "gesundheit!" at the end LOL. so maaaaaybe i'm due to see it again!

I WILL SAY, since the near month this has been ruminating in my inbox, i have become more lenient to the Pepe cartoons in my skimming of them for polls. i don't think i've seen one in any other circumstance except out of obligation, but... it's hard not to laugh at the stupidly butchered French. i can't stop quoting AVEC AVEC UN POLE CAT LE PEW to myself LOL

but yes, i think the very first Pepe short is worth watching just for the sheer novelty. it likewise helps that this is about my favorite era of Jones cartoons, though i won't lie, some of the frames here are butt ugly HAHA

one key difference between me and felix is that I saw this and immediately went 'oh-- but that's not a Tolkien quote, that's directly from the movie adaptation (I haven't even read the book since I was twelve, but I happen to know this because it was mentioned in a long post about the movies I saw on tumblr like a year ago and minute details about random things stick to me like gnats on flypaper)'

and the difference is that I thought 'okay god that's insufferable of you, who cares' before I could even consider actually saying anything, but felix thinks it only immediately after doing so

Gotta say lads, it's strange but luminous to be able to see myself struggling but in real time tell how it's making me better, maybe it's a sign of my aging but it's somehow so warm and comforting to me.

the more my back starts to rebel against me, the more I start to believe that if someone threw me really hard into a rock in just the right way, maybe I too would regain abilities that have been latent within me, and maybe my eyes would also start to glow, and I also would unlock my true potential as Avatar, Master of All Four Elements

The Ted Lasso Amsterdam episode is beautiful and sweet and whimsical and romantic and lovely, no question

…but did they really expect us to believe that anything Rebecca wears is dryer-friendly
