Can you explain the nicknames that you made Jenson and Nico give Logan? I love your stories about them 🫶🏻
Yes! Thank you!
Okay so. I chose Logan's nickname with a bit of thought, actually.
Nico calls Logan "Sonnenschein" which is German for sunshine. I chose that because my father calls my brother that, and I always thought that it was adorable.
Jenson calls Logan "bear" because of Logan's famous nickname "logie bear" and I thought, why not? Bear is also chosen for Logan because (in my rpf world) people think Jenson calls him that because he's threatening and scary, but actually it's because of Logan wanting to cuddle his dads all the time (like a teddy bear.) So Jenson chose bear. (And so did I)
I also chose Logan to have the last name "Button-Rosberg" because I have a whole storyline already planned out for this series and the last name Sargeant will make an appearance in a bit. 👀
#f1#formula one rpf#logan sargeant#logan and his dads#jenson button#nico rosberg#princess cake#jenson x nico#my fanfiction#what a time for you and i#logie bear#sonnenschein#it's very complicated#but it's cool

Reading Umineko no Naku Koro ni is frustrating because I can't decide if I want to be like Beatrice, be the object of Beatrice's affection/bullying, or strangle Beatrice with my bare hands. :)
#it's very complicated#and i feel all three constantly#just finished the second arc/chapter tonight and i am experiencing complex thoughts and opinions#mainly that I begrudgingly and happily love Beato#love Maria with all my heart#hate Rosa with my entire being#and want to hug Battler and protect him (despite the fact that i took great pleasure in the end of this chapter 🙃)#umineko no naku koro ni#umineko#beatrice umineko#golden witch beatrice#flapping my wings#I'm excited for the next part#let's keep this fucked up ball rolling#B) tea party time

Hi-- I never watched Ted Lasso; but I saw the hype on Twitter... did it end badly??? Because the bits of discourse I saw were pretty blatant about how it 'should' have ended thematically. Was the ending better as it is? Or is it another "WHY" moment (like Succession? I think?)
Regardless, hope you enjoyed it. :))))
If you ever feel like watching a wonderful show full of hope and kindness, you should watch Ted Lasso! The first two seasons are the best. Which brings me to the finale - and kind of the whole third season. I don't watch Succession, so I have no idea what happened there.
I've seen the Ted Lasso ending compared to HIMYM several times now - though HIMYM was like 10000 times worse if you ask me. The Ted Lasso finale wasn't "bad". Not like that. I can obviously only speak for myself and my feelings. The whole thing just felt unfinished and unsatisfactory. The main character - Ted Lasso - ended right back where he started and it just feels... like something is missing. The whole season felt a bit like that.
What is interesting to me personally is the comparison between Ted Lasso and HIMYM cause both shows knew exactly how they wanted to end. With HIMYM it made no sense whatsoever cause the show went in a completely different direction and with Ted Lasso it seemed to make sense cause they said three seasons and that would be it. I thought okay, they have a plan, and know what they're doing. I'm sure they did, but something felt off about the season, and now about the finale too.
I very much enjoyed the show as a whole. As for the finale, time will tell.
#lovely asks#series finales are so tricky#and yeah i mean i'm a bit sad my ship didn't sail#but that's not it for once#the ending just felt so flat for lack of a better word#it's very complicated

I'm developing so much more sympathy for GRRM's habit of going off and writing prequels and smaller vignettes while he's working on TWoW. I'm sitting here trying to work on APWH and the gremlin in my brain is like 'Edmure and Roslin pov story nownownow'.
#just apwh things#my writing process#Anyways I'm currently beating back the brain gremlins with a broom#but desperately want to write a bit about how Roslin Alyx and Walda team up to get the fuck away from their dysfunctional family#and live their best lives#putting it on the to do list bc especially Walda deserves better#we've been in kind of a honeymoon period in APWH and things are going to unravel a bit going forward#not completely#but like#plot marches onwards#and they can't stay in the winterfell bubble forever#plus the Tully family dynamics are INSANE#Edmure bb i have so much sympathy for u#it's very complicated#the more i write Lysa the more i love her

Gaius's thoughts on Smodur? (@ratasum)
Gaius, for an extended period, rather idolized Smodur? This tapered off long before Icebrood Saga, but the most notable point for it during the run of the game is the early part of LW1, when the player is allowed to investigate/meet with the refugees in the Citadel, as well as dick around and see what the defense Quorum is up to before meeting with Rytlock. Apparently, the guards aren't supposed to let people through, but the commander's got special privileges, and you can talk to Smodur there--though I imagine the interaction is brief, as it is in-game, Gaius comes away from it all but preening.
Smodur, for all intents and purposes, was the epitome of what it meant to be Iron Legion, so Gaius had an inextricable desire to impress him. And then Gaius' viewpoint continues to grow and develop, on account of being the commander and most notably, while dead, he meets the ghost of a charr who died in a skirmish with Flame, and he suddenly recognizes how it all sucks.
IBS comes along and he's... not in a much happier spot. Smodur totes him around, and where just years ago he'd have reveled in it, he recognizes just how shitty it is. Then of course, killing Cinder.
Overall, his feelings towards Smodur are complicated--as someone who was also very much part of the War Machine of legion life, someone who lived and aspired to be part of the propaganda, he understands where Smodur is at, especially because not only is he a part of it, he is in charge--Smodur has very real responsibility, and in the face of that, it's hard to face change.
Gaius doesn't agree with most of the things of his relevance during IBS, or even political things we aren't necessarily privy too, but he also knows that Smodur was pretty progressive in a lot of ways, too, and appreciates that.
#gw2 oc#horncleaver asks#Gaius Horncleaver#Smodur the Unflinching#IT'S VERY COMPLICATED#you look up to somebody throughout your adult life and suddenly your horizons are broadened by the burden of responsibility#and the joys of adventure#and you realize you're not really enlightened#your society is just xenophobic and awful#but there's very real responsibility in the hands of some of these people#smodur from what we can tell was in no way corrupt#he like bangar and ryland and many charr#are only thinking in terms of what matters to charr#(and yes himself; ambition being his big flaw or whatever)#but#his responsibility is to the charr#and furthermore to the charr of iron#gaius' responsibility is to tyria#sorry im not the most articulate when trying to answer asks lmao#thank you for the prompt though!!

#dungeon meshi#izutsumi#marcille donato#chilchuk tims#I still stand by my tags on the Izutsumi character study piece I did in January - but I will repeat myself on a few lines here:#I *really* love this character. I love that all of the dungeon meshi crew are complicated and have difficult to love components.#But Izutsumi is a particular kind of hard to love. I foresee a lot of people being turned off by her abrasiveness and lack of teamwork.#She is very self-centered and openly goes against what the party agrees on.#She's a picky eater in a story that is 50% about eating good and healthy food!#It is in part about her growth but admittedly even *then* she remains rather true to her self-centeredness.#Even though she isn't as nice or funny or compassionate as the others...Izutsumi is still someone worth loving.#Even the more difficult people are someone worth loving.#And those people in turn are people who have something and someone they love.#She may be a girlcat but she is the most human of them all.#I hope that if you are an anime only watcher and are feeling put off by her at the moment; you'll give her a chance.#By the way: *yes* I worked very hard to draw that skateboard pose. It was worth it.#EDIT: HAPPY 500th POST OF POORLY-DRAW-MDZS!!! What a comic to commemorate the milestone with!

a few days ago I visited a cathedral where they played gregorian chants in the background the whole time. 10/10 experience, I think every church should do that
#and I'm not even really religious#I think#it's very complicated#but I go absolutely apeshit for a bit of good old gregorian chanting#catholiscism

correct me if i’m wrong cos i don’t watch dune.. but i’ve seen people call paul a tragic character. except isn’t he a whole white coloniser tricking indigenous poc into believing he’s a prophet to serve his own interests? that’s inherently evil that cannot be a tragic character imo
so yes that is correct that is what happens. the tragedy is that he is a sixteen year old boy who gets a vision of this happening and he is TERRIFIED and absolutely does not want this to happen at all. He does not want the holy war he does not want to be the chosen one he initially very much wants to fight alongside the fremen as equals trying to liberate themselves from their current colonizer without becoming the messiah because they have common political cause.
And then the entire second half of the first book (and the second movie) are about the concessions he makes to himself bit by bit by bit (well it’s the only way to save his mom and sister. well it’s the only way to prevent nuclear war. well he does want his revenge. well maybe he IS special.) Until by the end he has lost 100% of his humanity, fully wants to be the messiah and is willing to manipulate people into thinking so, and has declared himself duke of arrakis in his father’s name and made a play for the imperial throne.
you’re right that it’s evil. the book and these movies agree with you. the tragedy is watching a child who desperately wanted to avoid this slowly completely lose himself to it anyways. i don’t think “tragic” and “evil” are inherently mutually exclusive.
#so dune is thematically complicated. because it IS very much anti white savior and anti colonial.#but the author white american weirdo that he is is still throwing a lot of orientalism out while communicating those themes#dune

you're in the habit of denying yourself things.
if someone asked you directly, you would say that you love a little treat. you like iced coffee and getting the cookie. you drink juice out of a fancy cup sometimes, and often do use your candles until they gutter out helplessly.
but you hesitate about buying the 20 dollar hand mixer because, like. you could just use your arms. you weren't raised rich. you don't get to just spend the 20 dollars (remember when that could cover lunch?), at least - you don't spend that without agonizing over it first, trying to figure out the cost-benefits like you are defending yourself in front of a jury. yes, this rice cooker could seriously help you. but you do know how to make stovetop rice and it really isn't that hard. how many pies or brownies would you actually make, in order to make that hand mixer worthwhile?
what's wild is that if the money was for a friend, it would already be spent. you'd fork over 40 without blinking an eye, just to make them happy. the difference is that it's for you, so you need to justify it.
and it sneaks in. you ration yourself without meaning to - you don't finish the pint of ice cream, even though you want to. the next time you go to the store, you say ah, i really shouldn't, and then you walk away. you save little bits of your precious things - just in case. sometimes you even go so far as putting that one thing in your shopping cart. and then just leaving it there, because maybe-one-day, but not right now, there's other stuff going on.
you do self-care, of course. but you don't do it more than like, 3 days in a row. after that it just feels a little bit over-the-edge. like. you can't live in decadence, the economy is so bad right now, kid.
so you don't buy the rice cooker. you can-and-will spend the time over the stove. you can withstand the little sorrows. denial and discipline are practically synonyms. and you're not spoiled.
it's just - it's not always a rice cooker. sometimes it is a person or a job or a hug. sometimes it is asking for help. sometimes it is the summer and your college degree. sometimes it is looking down at scabbed knees and feeling a strange kind of falling, like you can't even recognize the girl you used to be. sometimes it is your handprint looking unsteady.
sometimes it is tuesday, and you didn't get fired, and you want to celebrate. but what is it you like, even? you search around your little heart and come up empty. you're so used to denying that all your desires draw a blank.
oh fuck. see, this is the perfect opportunity. if you had a mixer, you'd make a cake.
#warm up#this isn't good#writeblr#this is complicated by the fact i can't stand up too long or i fuckken pass out and <3 hit my damn head <3#but i did take a deep breath and buy myself the stupid rice cooker#and!!! a very cheap sushi kit!!! i have been wanting to try making sushi for literally YEARS#the kit was only like 15 dollars!!!! and i haven't purchased it bc?!!??!?!?!?!!?#..... i didn't get the mixer tho that felt. like a lot. like too much.#on my list is a kitchenaid. one day when i get a check and i have paid off my student debt#and medical debt#i will put that first little bit of cash#into a kitchenaid 5qt stand mixer (with attachments)#i really do just go into their refurbished section and stare lustily at each option#but yeah i feel guilty about the rice cooker even tho i know for a fact this damn thing is gonna be a lifesaver#oh shit also fuck i forgot to mention . poached eggs
