So did we ever figure out exactly why the writers decided to start calling icebrood "the frozen" during the latter half of the icebrood saga?

#guild wars 2 #gw2 #felt like a major downgrade tbh.#I remember some speculated that it was strictly the people being frozen during the lake doric and adjacent DRMs being called ''the frozen''#but then if you play dragonstorm aurene will even call regular icebrood by that name if I'm understanding correctly.#just felt like it came out of nowhere

okay but why is this season of the boys such a mess. like. episodes 1 - 5 were actually pretty good (especially 4 and 5, specifically the homelander + hughie and his dad plotlines respectively in those were SO good), then ep 6 was a clusterfuck outside of butcher's stuff, and i kinda thought we were on track for something pretty okay when annie took hughie's assault seriously at the end of the episode only for it to just be brushed off this episode AND hughie gets SA'd AGAIN?????? HELLO?????

#also is it just me but something was. off. about episode 7 #the dialogue was clunky #it was shot weird. like idk it didnt feel right but dont ask me to explain #the ashley and a-train stuff was good but homelander firecracker and sage were just. weird #webweaver scene felt unnecessary and a very forced “ohoho homelander kills someone in a gruesome way!”#and the deep subplot was??? okay i guess??? the stuff with the octopus was absurd and funny which was kind of always deep's thing(tm)#but then his fight with annie and everyone was. eh???#oh and kimiko and frenchie #like they were cute as always but. idk. i feel like frenchie's stuff is getting kind of rushed + kimiko having a whole other reason she #doesnt speak felt like it came out of nowhere. but thats a nitpick #anyway yeah idk. ill still watch the next episode since im this deep in but i am NOT optimistic for a good conclusion #the boys #billy butcher #hughie campbell #annie january #kimiko miyashiro #frenchie the boys #homelander #firecracker #the boys s4 #the boys spoilers

Mannn see this is so awesome because in the end none of those plot holes and loose ends matter. "But what about the plot line where the-" irrelevant! Completely and totally! So much time has passed that it no longer matters. All that actually matters is that these characters kept going, that they're still alive and still making an effort. That's all.

#at the time it did matter because it felt like we were being promised plotlines that never came #but now its just an unexpected blessing that came out of nowhere. ❤️#doodle.txt

Helluva Boss S2 Episode 9 spoilers

Stolas I am BEGGING you to be with this guy instead of Blitz

#This random imp has done things that have taken Blitzo nearly 2 seasons to do #Such as: give you a genuine compliment #On a serious note I literally feel nothing towards Stolas x Blitz #It just felt like it came totally out of nowhere and replaced the original premise of the show #And that's one of the reasons why I dislike it so much #'Oh but Blitzo is suffering from major trauma and that's why he acts out'#Stolas was in an emotionally and physically abusive relationship but you don't see him backhanding Blitzo #Like Stolas you're literally attending a party filled with Blitzo's exs as they come together to support one another #This ENTIRE party should be reason enough for why you shouldn't date Blitzo #Cut him off my dude kick his ass to the curb and get a better man #Helluva Boss #Stolas #Blitzo

you are complaining about complaining too much while complaining about the fact that maybe people dont like you because you complain too much while complaining about being alone. just stop complaining and do something about it. talk to people. reach out. dont just wait for someone to come to you first.

i have tried reaching out to different people in the past year or so but it never works. i understand its my own fault for letting relationships decay because of my own insecurities and issues but that doesn't mean i can just will myself to think or believe different things about myself. it's a self fulfilling prophecy ; i think people don't like me so i don't reach out so people don't like me etc . i am sure you do not want to hear me list all the things i want to say in response so i will put them in the tags.

#every time i try to reach out or talk to someone it goes nowhere. i dont have any social skills anymore and have no clue how to keep a #conversation going. half the time even when i do people stop replying to me. which is fine theydont owe me a reply but still feels likeshit #when i tried to make one new irl friend it just didn't work because they have better options for friends. we spoke occasionally but never #messaged online like ever and would only talk when we happened to be in the same place. i tried multiple times to organize a time to hangou #none of which came to pass. i dont understand why this one didn't work because i thought this person was interested in being my friend but #i guess i was wrong or thought they were more interested than they really were.#i have a problem with reaching out anyway which has been a problem i have had since i was like 11. reaching out to people first doesnt come #easily to me - in the beginning when i was a lot younger i didn't want to bother people with my presence & thought if i were to come to #someone first they would feel pressured into talking to me when they didn't want to. this is stupid of course. but has still not left me as #something i feel is very core to the way i act today. waiting for someone to come to me first feels like my only option because i do not #know how to reach out effectively (my evidence being i have failed every time i have tried) & i am convinced people dont like me in the #first place and do not want me to approach them.#i dont really even know who to reach out to in the first place. my world is extremely narrow. the number of people i know has shrunk #significantly and my standing in their eyes collectively has also shrunk significantly in the past few years. i feel like every person i #was once friends with wants nothing to do with me. i feel as if i have burned every bridge possible.#when it comes to the fact i complain all the time . which i know of course is annoying. its because i cant find any kind of joy in anything #i do or see or whatever. nothing makes me happy - i only see things to complain about. all stimulus seems grating and the world seems #specifically catered to make me miserable. all i can really do is complain. i treat this blog like a stream of consciousness and when most #of that consciousness is occupied with how much i hate being alive the blog will mostly be complaining. its a vicious cycle lol .#anyway . i guess the key theme is low self esteem begets low self esteem in many ways. mental illness begets mental illness.#i am not really saying this to anyone least of all to you anon. i just felt compelled to recount i guess for myself the reasons that came #to mind for why i am like this. i am talking to myself here

#turtwig #AND GENERATION FOUR BEGINS!!!#never thought we'd get there so soon‚ huh? yeah‚ neither did i. it's like it kinda just came out of nowhere. i knew i was queuing up gen 3 #legendaries and that usually means the next gen is right around the corner but it's still surprising to me for some reason #seeing the beginning of gen 4. who knows. turtwig is one of those starters i used to not like but i've really come around to in recent years #y'know�� they're cute! what else is there to say? the only reason i usually don't use them in playthrus of sinnoh games is just bc grotle #or. torterra is the final one. yeah. i'm not a huge fan of it as compared to like. infernape. but then again i think gen 4 just has kinda #weak starters for my taste. not like objectively. there's a liker out there for every starter‚ for sure‚ but they've just always felt…#i dunno. default. to me. maybe it's because gen 4 is the gen i played the most as a kid. next to colosseum i guess #so they really feel like Default Pokémon. when i think of pokémon‚ gen 4 pokémon are usually some of the first ones to come to mind #and y'know! turtwig is good! good pokémon! that's about all. i like it now and i used to not

Low key this was probably my favorite part of the episode

#this was an actually funny fucking joke I’m so happy #also a good reaction gif out of it #this and where alastor freaks out at the end where probably some of my favorite parts #like seeing alastor actually slipping I guess and showing fear was the one thing I felt had great buildup #idk just seeing a powerful and mysterious character terrified and panicking for the first time after establishing their like #unwavering mask is a recipe for good tv #although him seeing them as friends or actually caring about them I don’t buy #it just felt like him calling them friends came out of nowhere man. I know they only have 8 eps but dude #hazbin hotel

i may be obsessed.

#her name is tenka but everyone calls her brandy #(warden nickname she earned in her early days due her unbreakable record of being able to drink ANYONE under the table)#her mother was banished from orzammar when she fell pregnant with her (long story very sad and dramatic and lowkey personal)#and while she was pregnant she was cared for and eventually fell in love with a gentle blacksmith from a small ferelden village #who her mother married (taking his surname) and who raised tenka as his daughter #she was a young child during the fifth blight and their village survived unscathed w the exception of some food shortages and trade issues #nothing life shattering #but she had heard of the darkspawn from her mother's stories about their family's history and they were her boogeymen #her monsters under the bed #but her parents reminded her she's smaller than all the other children and that's her strength. she's brilliant at hide and seek.#the darkspawn didn't come during the apex of the fifth blight but after #some lone grey warden had been staying at the inn that weekend. said something about looking for someone #now when the darkspawn came tenka Hid. her father was outside. her mother had already gone to the market. it was still morning #they said they wouldn't get in the house. it got very loud and then very quiet. and they got in.#she burst from the cupboard and ran to her father's smithy but she was only a child and when a darkspawn axe raked her back she collapsed #into the rack of blades she had been reaching for. these were her monsters and she was bleeding so much and her parents were missing #and she was so scared so so so scared. between fight and flight it was always flight and she had nowhere left to fly to #another graze of the blade across her chest as she scampered back made her scream and that's when she saw rowena #her uncles and cousins from her mother's stories never felt like heroes due to what they did to her mother but when she saw rowena hack #down her monsters piercing through them valiantly like light through the crack in her dark bedroom door #with her mother and father right behind completely safe and sobbing and relieved and Alive #she had never looked up to someone more #see rowena got a lot of things wrong but brandy is exactly what she got right #only two villagers died. farmers. it had been but a small darkspawn raid. but she saved a girl. saved a family. saved a town.#rowena stayed in town while tenka recovered (most likely to ensure she didn't contract the blight) and tenka adored her every move #she knows nothing of rowena's struggles. knows nothing of rowena's missteps. nothing of the constant reminder of mortality in her head #just that she's her hero. just that she wants to be exactly like her.#she joined the wardens young with a kiss to her parents goodbye and never looked back even when it turned out to be harder #in ways she'd never imagined. but she was immovable. a force of will. she was dauntless and daring and it was her idolization of rowena #that inspired her and kept her going. where other wardens cracked no amount of hardship could break her. it was almost Smug

2024 reads / storygraph

The Principle of Moments

start of a scifi space opera series

a teen girl in the far future where humans are oppressed learns she has a destiny & a lost sister and escapes

and a young time traveler who’s given up trying to find his father through time, and is about to settle in 1812 with the prince he loves, but is unwillingly thrust into the future

they both learn their fates are entangled by a prophecy, and have to race across the galaxy, followed by a galactic emperor and the legacy of heroes from an ancient religion

#The Principle of Moments #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #this started off pretty good - interesting characters and worldbuilding; easy to read #but it felt like a bit too much was going on and I kinda checked out from the last third and didn’t care anymore.#It felt very much like the plot was just happening to the characters and they didn’t have much effect on it all.#It’s very classic space opera chosen one story! it’s fun and ambitious! a lot of doctor who vibes -#but also like if you tried to fit the entirety of timelord lore into one or two episodes haha.#It also had a couple classic space opera pitfalls.. like how this evil alien race was described as looking evil (in various ways). hm.#I actually really loved the writing style of the excerpt snippets in the beginning and would have been keen for most of it to be like that.#but also probably with the book being shorter.#there’s humor thrown in there that was sometimes funny but also sometimes awkward.#The time travelers speak very modern (despite none of it being set in the present) which like - obviously anachronism is gonna be inherent #to time travelers but sometimes it felt awkward. or like.. the other characters didn’t comment on it?#There were a couple moments that felt like a tv script gag that just came across badly on the page #gay prince romance was cute but kinda was thrown in the deep end then it’s barely relevant for most of the story.#The whole london subplot felt unneccesary. The random romance subplot the girl gets felt out of nowhere.#anyway it's decent! just fell apart a bit and didn't live up to my expectations

Fighting the battle against the brain weasels tonight, who are busy trying to convince me to do the thing that I know (think? hope?) I'll deeply regret come morning. Not sure if I'm winning or losing right now.
