which song will be the first one you'll learn on drums? 🥁💕

If I ever get the chance to drum?

Well, I would say I would go for "Yellow Submarine" first. It has fairly easy drumming, plus it's my favorite song so I think it would go well - truth be told, this is also the song that I've chosen to start learning guitar chords. I tried to come back to playing it on my classic guitar yesterday and it sounded somehow similar, so yay to that!

But yeah, drumming that simple beat would be fun! <3

Yubel isn’t a girl. They use primarily masculine language to refer to themself. Having one boob and being voiced by a woman in the dub doesn’t make them a girl, I don’t think.

Yubel is non-binary and that can mean a lot of things. Some non-binary people do feel a connection or an overlap with manhood and/or womanhood (for example, bigender people exist).

With fictional characters, there are a range of interpretations that can all be correct. A "non-binary with overlap with womanhood" Yubel interpretation is no less valid than a "non-binary with 0 overlap with womanhood" interpretation, so I (the non-binary lesbian running this blog, who likes using some masculine terms and no feminine terms for myself) did not see a good reason to exclude Yubel from the tournament.

You don't have to interpret Yubel the same way as other people, but "girl" can and does include some non-binary people.

i've noticed just how often achilles' dragging of hector's corpse is framed mostly as an act of extreme disrespect, or only some brutal show of triumph. personally i think that's underselling both achilles' intention and what the trojans must be thinking as they watch it happen.

hector's corpse is divinely protected so it can't be damaged by the greeks after death; all that effectively happens in the iliad is that his body gets dirty. but under normal circumstances (and i'm not gonna impose realism on mythology, but the iliad is famously detailed when it comes to bodily trauma), the physical reality of dragging a corpse along stony ground for miles would be severe disfigurement and dismemberment. first the skin would wear off, then soft tissues, then extremities would start to detach. i think the iliad's original audience would be aware of that as an intended outcome.

achilles (who doesn't yet know that hector's body has been granted divine stasis) doesn't just want to parade his enemy's corpse around, he wants to tear it apart ("i only wish that this fury inside my heart would drive me to carve you to pieces and eat your flesh raw..."), he wants it to not resemble a human anymore. he wants hector's blood and flesh to circle the city of troy. he wants to make it impossible for hector's family to gather the pieces of him to cremate and that way hector's spirit won't find passage into the underworld. that's what the gods are preventing from happening, they're not just keeping the corpse pretty for priam to pick up later.

listen there really was just something about how in the book, snow’s 3-page descent from hesitant lover boy to deluded mfer happens entirely in his mind. lucy gray gives him no indication whatsoever that she suspects him, that she’s going to leave or betray him. he’s just sitting quietly in the cabin waiting for her to return when that seed of calculated suspicion, which he has needed to survive the capitol, takes a hold of him and chokes the life out of any goodness left inside him. it really drives home your terror as a reader that “oh my god did he kill her? did she escape? what happened to her? why would he even think that?” in a way that when the movie had to adjust for visualization it lost some of that holy shit this guy has lost it emphasis.
