#its normal to feel slighted by that

people are acting like we’re saying creators shouldn’t be paid for their work; they absolutely should. and watcher already is. they have a patreon, they get sponsors, their videos regularly get millions of views which gives them ad revenue, they sell merch; they are getting paid. feeling indignant and disappointed that they’re asking us to pay for content we were already getting for free isn’t entitlement, it’s expected. they wanted to make bigger produced shows and now their budget can’t sustain it, that’s not on the viewer to make up for
#im not going to feel as sorry for the company as iam for an artist working out of their bedroom#they went too big and now expect us to make up for it#its normal to feel slighted by that#im not paying over a hundred dollars a year for a guy to eat food another to walk around a house and a puppet to tell a story#im just not#their shows are entertaining theres no doubt about that but can you really say its worth that fee when we are in a cost of living crisis#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#watcher#watcher tv#shane madej#ryan bergara#steven lim#hey there demons it’s me ya boy#ghoul boys

do you actually dislike the bird abode or just the creature designs? not saying the name directly so your ass doesn't get blasted by the tag
I like a lot of the creatures in it; the showrunner is a really fantastic horror artist and it really comes through in the aesthetics of the show. I especially like this hand dragon, though there's a lot of other great designs:

As for the show on the whole, it's not bad but not really for me? Early on it really feels like it's schtick will be that it's a subversion of harry potter-esque stories, where the protagonist wants to go on an adventure similar to her favorite fantasy book but instead ends up hanging out with the "villain" (who's actually just othered)/the magic school turns out to be secretly oppressive/the world is kind of gross and spooky instead of clean and approachable... but as it goes along I think it ends up being a pretty by the books YA fantasy thing played mostly straight, and it isn't super interesting or funny or scary or anything besides that. Which admittedly was probably to its benefit, I think a lot of its popularity comes from it being this very tropeish and not-uncomfortable magic school/found family story that's actually queer, like I genuinely think this is hugely appealing to the average cartoon fan on twitter, but I'm just not personally into it in comparison to a lot of it's contemporaries
#ok very slight tangent#this is such a weird nothing complaint but you know i really don't like that line of critique you see a lot amongst animation fans#where they praise a show for Sticking It To Steven Universe by killing off a villain#and the owl house's climax feels almost like it plays into that intentionally with the little star boy who thinks he can hug the villain#which in the moment was kind of souring for me even if that wasn't the intention (though certainly twitter thought it was)#because I find steven universe was so comparatively subversive and bespoke to itself and complete in its metaphors#that it felt nearly eye rolling#because it was like it was sort of priding itself on being normal and tropey in contrast to this more unique and confronting show#(this isn't why I'm a bit lukewarm on the show. I just think it's a lukewarm show & I again don't mean that in a damning way)#(but everytime the owl house comes up I can't help but think of it)#talking tag

I know that Max is referring to May not knowing anything about Harley's plot in Going For Choke, but for a second I thought he was just taking a moment to call her stupid, unprompted 😭
#pokeani#feelings for queue#tay's tag#i promise i watch episodes other than these but it's always the coordinator episodes where insane shit happens.#actually that's not true. all of AG is kind of like that BUT the concentration of '???' moments is much higher in coordinator eps.#but anyways i've been rewatching the sub just to have a slightly different experience than usual and it's fun!#it is absolutely hilarious to see what lines are missing though (or rather were added). the eng dub just really did all that on its own huh#I'm always like 'ohhh right James doesn't say ''next time let's have them jump off of a bridge'' in this one'.#and Harley isn't calling people boytoys#and Drew doesn't sound like the guy from Blink-182 but with love and peace that one's a really welcome change personally 😭#I would say that the sub is a more normal experience but it does lack the batshit je ne sais quoi of the eng dub.#but it's just really fun to see the slight differences in personalities and episodes and scenes!!!#i'm so glad we have reliable ag subs now.

ive been fighting for my fucking life against this one neck muscle (levator scapulae??) but i think im finally making some progress cus. the vertabrae i can feel in the back of my neck are a little less wonky.
#when i unkink my spine am i gonna be slightly taller...#i can feel it tho the vertabra right in the middle is pushed in a lil#theres a slight curve to the whole thing its very disconcerting#when i first started working this spot. when i finally started getting it to release#it briefly felt like liquid was dripping down that side of my neck and face#im sure its fine and im perfectly healthy and theres nothing wrong with me for sure for sure for sure#for sure for sure for sure#its not even from the neck muscles either it starts all the way down in the quadratus lumborum#which is great i gotta unkink the spine down there and then work my way up#very cool very normal thing that a human body should do#anyways to my mutuals. if ive been weird this is why.

woke up this "morning" (i.e. before 2pm) feeling somewhat better but then started to cough up blood just as i got out of bed. mildly spiraled for a minute b/c the local urgent/emergency rooms are too packed to function and all my EMT training has for bloody sputum is O2 and transport (just like everything else, lol.)
spent like an hour calling different phone trees and looking at my old textbooks to figure out if A) there was somewhere that could see me today (no) or B) if I had forgotten any differential diagnosis type shit from school (also no), before i blew my nose and realized that. i had developed a bloody nose overnight and not realized. teehee
#like no i'm Not Allowed To Diagnosis but we all do. cmon. cmonnnn#but in this situation its like. well. symptoms have been severe but improving. chest pain is mild intermittent and receding. voice returned#breathing mostly unimpaired with modest rhonchi and slight (5-10%?) reduction in lung volume per spirometer. blah blah#sinus pressure and impaired hearing. whatever. kinda normal shit other than how prolonged the illness has been.#(day 7 of acute illness and day 14[?] of feeling kinda weird.) but seriously like barely hit 100 degrees at any point here.#so having the bloody cough show up. Now. was really scaring me lmfao#like. what is that. i got TB 3 days into having the flu which i got 4 days into RSV? but no significant fever at any point? HELLO???

still surprised that the people behind world of warcraft actually really released a race where the women can have beards, and not even just small or subtle beards, but ones just as big and grand as the men have. i dont really ever expect much from blizzard when it comes to anything progressive really, so its always a surprise if they do have anything like this.
and when ive mentioned it before, people have told me that women dwarves (the earthen arent even actually dwarves(?), they just look A LOT like them for whatever reason) usually have beards?? but ive never seen that before this whole thing, and even then, this is blizzard were talking about. its actually just a shock they did something like this at all.
i try not to publically praise them too much for a few reasons, but i just have to say that i like it, and yes i gave my earthen woman a grand beard.
#my post#world of warcraft#like. if i look up 'woman dwarf' on google images i get like. *some* that have beards but its very few#i have a feeling id see a lot more if i specified them having beards LOL#im not doubting that its been a thing for a long time#but i think saying that its a super normal common thing that people do is a slight overstatement#and if anything i think more people probably wouldnt do it because they cant concieve of a woman having a beard#and it being like... just a serious normal thing that exists#which is a shame because like. bro!! thats one more thing to customize on your character what!!!!#if anything i dont ever draw beards because im just not good at it. but im not good at it because i dont draw beards :pensive:#also if youre wondering why i hesitate to publically praise blizzard. obv there was that whole thing a few years ago that was super fucked#but also even just in world of warcraft itself there is... undoubtably a few questionable things... mainly the goblins#but its no secret how i feel about the goblins in wow#and obviously theres a few other things as well#like clearly i really like the game so i definitely have things in it that i could praise#but it just feels weird to publically praise it cause it feels like im somehow ignoring the bad things even though i really. really am not#earthen wow

having arfid is like if someone diagnosed you with "hates poop disorder" then told you that you either have to start eating bowls of horse diarrhea with human nail clippings in it or you die. that would fucking suck now wouldn't it
#personal#arfid#avoidant restrictive food intake disorder#i have found the ''you live in a world in which all food is literal shit and ppl keep tryin to convince you its actually really good#and acting like youre the unreasonable one for hating it'' metaphor to be quite effective in explaining how my life feels to other ppl#its so annoying when ppl act like im stupid for not jumping at the bit to torture myself for some vague dream#of recovery or whatever#i have ways to cope! i have foods i can eat and other things i can do to keep myself alive!! there is no point torturing myself#trying to be more 'normal' 😒#idc how much u condescendingly tell me how a balanced diet is good for me#i dont want to eat the horse diarrhea. i dont care what vitamins it will give me. i am surviving without it#i do not see any benefit to torturing myself for years just to gain slight resistance to it#let me beeee

Neve makes the Viper blush, and she can tell from his blushing if she’s correct in her little playful interrogations. How am I suppose to be normal about that.
#[ introspection ] its not what keeps me up at night. its not the quiet. i never could sleep once work gets in my head.#[ I’ve always had a slight crush on the viper but goddamn it how am I suppose to be normal about the opposite being true for Neve ]#[ also I saw a Tarqui.n and Ash.ur comic it made me start thinking about this little tidbit ]#[ ONE OF YOU SHARED IT now I’m in my shadow dragon feelings ]

#thunder roars#i hate how easy it is to set me off about this stupid thing#and im stuck vague posting about it lol#the more i notice these little triggers the worse they get everytime#i was able to brush it off like a year or two ago but the longer this goes on the worse it gets#sorry i know its like. really annoying wen i get into a post talking abt this#its just my only slight comfort for it. i dont want people to push me into talking about it if i were to go to my friends to say this#so im just. here. talking about it indirectly#:(#i feel like my life is literally falling apart because of this and i CANT TELL ANYONE#almost everyday its all i think about and it drives me crazy. i want to stop feeling like this so bad#atp i dont even know if venting to someone would help. i need therapy probably. but getting it off my chest would help maybe#sorry ppls dashes i will be normal again promise

im going to have to restart this episode because i got too invested in sweeping instead of paying attention. but what did make it through was that all the dialogue about amy being pregnant is. weird.
#maybe its just because i finished torchwood and that ends with gwen pregnant and like. they were normal about it there.#and did not feel the need to point out how huge she was. every minute.#dw lb#dw 5x07#you dont watch out and sweeping will get you man.#youll get so invested in cleaning up that dust#……. (slight horror) my god ive been domesticated.

man it would be cool to have a long-term creating capability wouldn't it. wouldn't it.
#slight vent/rant below idk youve been warned#unsure of where i'm going with this because i know that im standing at the border of a deep hole#this hole being an issue i keep struggling wiht but i'm trying not to fall into this hole today at 1:30am as ill try to sleep soon#but man ough. does it feel like i should be working on something.#i always had that but i guess the fact that my partner is succeeding so fast strengthens that?#i know i shouldn't be and its something i'm fighting against with an okay success comparing to how it was in the past but i will admit i am#kind of jealous. i mean who wouldnt be?? its a normal emotion to have and yet it feels so bad. at least im managing it better now#i have to keep reminding myself that he's rushing at a pace way faster than normal. and just bcs i'm more in a normal pace of things doesnt#mean im falling behind#ehhhh

Maybe I should stop taking paracetamols...
#my heart ALWAYS feels weird whenever I take 2 a day#i have a slight mytrovalve reflux but istg i haven't found anything about paracetamol doing that on its own#and afaik this paracetamol doesn't contain caffeine even tho my body doesn't feel like THIS on too much caffeine#but doctors expensive and gonna say everything's fine (bc that's what happened they mentioned the reflux like it was perfectly normal)#or maybe it's the christmas food which is almost all meat and fat and my body truly becomes disabled when it's 'eating holidays'#and by that I mean constantly nauseous bc there's ONLY red meat 3 times a day nothing fresh or lots of veggies#and no one cares to accommodate that :((((((
