Yes the race suit is ugly, yes blue beautiful, yes blue ugly, whatever let’s discuss more pressing matters.
‘Cause for real, I’ve tried to study them from so many different angles and perspectives and still I can’t find an answer to this question?
WHO IS TALLER?
My first take is that Charles is taller than him, but then they stand back to back and I don’t know, perhaps Charles tends to be a bit more hunched than Carlos but Carlos’ shoulders are higher than his’.
And then when they are next to each other they look identical.
And then when they are looking at each other Charles seems taller.
What is this sorcery?

Sometimes, I want to add a LoS perspective on certain arguments when it comes to NFCV vs. Castlevania Games, but by the time I'm mostly done with the post, I feel like I'm intruding on something that doesn't involve me (even though it technically does), so I delete it.
It doesn't help that most of these posts happen when I'm at work, so most have already moved past it by the time I can even look at them.
#toadscreech#anti netflixvania#tagging yhay just incase#just to add#i sincerely believe that what NFCV stans are wanting#can be found and done better in LoS#but what do i know 🤷♀️

And another thing!!! I’m really loving the Annabeth and Percy ship like right away. When I read the books it took until like the 3rd or 4th book. But I’m like rooting for them the moment Annabeth was like “you drool when you sleep”.
Such good casting 😪 the casting director really knew what they were doing when they casted Annabeth. Her micro expressions are giving.

I love that we discovered so much about Anna in this new chapter. Finding out that Anna was a college student fascinated me. As I have read women in Europe began actively attending college even earlier than women in the United States. By World War II it was already very common for women throughout Europe (at least for the most part) to attend universities composed of both men and women. In the United States, on the other hand, although there were women-only universities, there were still very few women attending. I think it is right that Rooster is not surprised to discover that Anna was a university student and part of the resistance. Because for during WWII the U.S. Navy created the WAVES branch for college women to enter the Navy at officer rank and serve during the war. So I guess Bradley has already met several of those women. Even in England there were all-female aviation squadrons during WWII. I found it so sweet and yet so sad how Anna felt the need to explain to Rooster why she was so nervous at that moment during the night. It was quite melancholy how Anna wanted to let Bradley know that she used to be an ordinary girl before the war, which is true.
You are absolutely right, and just to add a little bit more context for Czechoslovakia specifically (im probably going to write too many words here so i'll put it under a keep reading)
The interwar years, or the First Republic, are broadly considered a time of progress: socially, economically and militarily. In particular, it saw almost all institutions open to women/become co-ed and which resulted in (a relative) surge of in women becoming practicing professionals as medical doctors and lawyers, professors, but also in a number of technical fields and entering the workforce in different vocations. This is in part through the influence of the first First Lady of Czechoslovakia, Charlotte Garrigue Masaryk, who herself was well-educated (and American-born) and was quite clearly a heavy influence on her husband when it came to matters of education equality (even before he became president in 1918). (not to leave out the efforts of other female Bohemian writers, thinkers and activists that were also active and successful during Austro-Hungarian times, but that's another topic)
That said, Anna would have still been part of a minority as a female student, even though a generation of graduates and professionals already preceded her and established a place in society. But the opportunities presented to her, academically and professionally, would be like night a day almost compared to pre-WWI—when girls for example could only take final exams at private schools, when boys could go to public school (and that after almost 200 years of compulsory 8 years of primary education for boys and girls >.> ). Austria-Hungary was actually relatively slow in establishing equal rights to education compared to many western countries, and real change only came about after the break-up of the empire. Anyway, I think that she is conscious of that, and that it's of definite influence on how she acts and perceives the world around her and her place in it.
And I agree on that Rooster would, again in the grand scheme of things, not be that surprised. Definitely through his experiences and what he must have seen in the U.S, and the U.K. of women not only entering the armed forces but also the workforce at large as you pointed out. But at that time at the eastern front, women saw active combat as snipers, in artillery and tank divisions (although, it should be noted that the majority of women in the armed forces there, too, usually served in medical units). And moreover, generally, all through Europe, women played pivotal roles in national resistance movements.
One particular example that always comes to mind is Hannie Schaft, of the best known resistance fighters in the Netherlands, who was executed by Dutch Nazis at only 24 in 1945. (and probably apocryphal, but after the first bullet only grazed her, she told her executioner "I shoot better!" — tbh i want that to be true so badly).
Okay, if you actually made it through that whole word vomit above haha, thanks 🧡 and thanks for reading the story, your comments make me super happy!

i feel like people are skimming over the uk riots in a way that makes me want to tear my hair out. muslims in the uk are in active danger. immigrants in the uk are in active danger. refugees in the uk are in active danger. people of colour in the uk are in active danger. asian communities in the uk are in active danger. black communities in the uk are in active danger.
there are massive far right riots throughout the country right now and people like fucking elon musk and nigel farage are inciting it and still have a platform to speak. people have used three young girls deaths, people's genuine grief in southport, to try and gain traction for their own racist bullshit and it's working.
a lot of refugee charities have been forced to close leaving many people without support, homes, funding, food, etc. if you aren't able to donate please consider sending a message via the conversation over borders campaign! it will send a hopeful, welcoming letter to a refugee in the uk. there is also a guide to staying safe here.
please do your own research and donate to refugee charities, anti-islamophobia charities, mosques who are trying to rebuild after being destroyed, counter protesters, here are some i've heard positive things about but the list is extensive; southport strong together (support for the southport victims and their families), southport mosque rebuilding, riot repair fund, middlesbrough vulnerable residents, nasir mosque rebuilding, hull help for refugees, bristol welcomes migrants,
#i know there's so much going on but if you can take a second to support these groups !!#i just feel kinda sick#i wanted to add with so many people seeing this that i'm white im british and im extremely privileged to not be in active danger right now#i don't want to take away from people speaking out about this who are in a place of danger#this was really only meant to be for my followers#but i'm glad more people get to see what's happening and donate !!!

the angel staying over at my house asked for a nightlight in their room and i told them buddy, don't you produce your own light? what're you gonna do with more? and they said they wanted to see why people like it so much. and also that the nightlight i own is blue and they've been trying to understand color. anyways i think they've stared at it for an hour now
#pig originals#i am going to add to this tomorrow. don't know what this means yet but it's something#unreality#<- just in case. let me know if this needs any other tags#pig pens#hello i think the title for this will be 'the angel staying over at my house'. yes it is long i know

if you’re ever in the position to choose between giving up and accepting defeat, and actually trying to fight the ancient unkillable god that is about to peel apart reality like a string cheese, remember this: scientifically speaking, you might as well give it a shot!
1.there were trees at the beginning of the world! there were trees so long ago that they predate bacteria that causes wood to decay. when a tree fell, it would lie there in stasis and there wasn’t any way of breaking down wood xylem on a molecular level in that way.
2. it seems obvious to say, but wood eating bacteria are literally incapable of comprehending what they’re breaking down. It’s just not information conciously available to a microorganism. they don’t know what they’re deconstructing, where it came from, bacteria have no way to even fathom the existence of a tree as a concept.
3. Regardless of the facts above, the world we live in today is a world where wood inevitably decomposes
it is worth fighting the unkillable god no matter how pointless it seems. it is worth taking the risk even though youre trying to accomplish something impossible. the reality in which you live was also once reality in which trees didn’t rot. You live in a reality that allows for existence before the possibility of destruction. you live in a reality where uncomprehending microbes break down matter that is so far beyond the scope of their comprehension that it feels comical to specify something so obvious. you live in a reality that occasionally allows unshakeable physical truths to be altered with no warning.
It is worth fighting the unkillable god because trees are so old they predate the source of their destruction, and it still did not spare them. It is worth fighting the unkillable god because bacteria rots unthinkingly, because there is room in our cosmos for destruction without comprehension on the part of the destroyer. It is worth fighting the unkillable god because now and then reality retracts the promise of immortality without fanfare, and when that happens there is no mercy for the ancient. the unmaking is not softer for the desecrators ignorance. for all things, existence is endless until the exact point where it ends.
so you might as well try to kill the unkillable god. it doesn’t seem likely, but at the beginning of the world, trees didn’t rot. so you never know! you never know
#bazinga!#I’ve been meaning to add these tags for a minute but it was too funny to keep the original line bazinga tag#if you see this i would appreciate this post not be tagged as wornld building#and if you want to use this concept in your D&D campaign#you don’t need to show this post or anything#but if you would please mention after the plot line ends that the original post was written all at once in a pretty desperate state#i thought about ginkgo trees while walking my dog late that night#and when i found myself hopeless and completely alone at midnight#I opened tumblr and talked to myself#and hit post#and went to bed#then it got 2000 notes and i woke up to the realization that the entire time I had said bacteria#when i fully meant fungus#fuck!!!#u don’t need to say all that just please include the context that this is a very personal post#thank u!#I’m not mad it’s not obvious from the post that i was ranting into the void
