So... As far as I got, ragatha is being mostly brainwashed right? So that kinda means that she's not responsible for her actions... BUT! Nobody knows that she's being controlled, although she is acting out of character, so it's hard for them to just... look past all of that ( not that it wouldn't be even if they knew ), right?

What a doozy woozy my friends!

yeah everything's going to be such a doozy

that's something to really note here — you guys know that she's infected but they don't . they only see ragatha who's being positive . as usual . and trying to be helpful . as usual . really , the only thing that's off here is that her happiness seems more genuine than usual , but that's not a bad thing , right ?

The irresistible urge to buy pretty and cute scented candles vs the futility in knowing that they will not have any scent once I actually light them up.

okay. hello guys. my bad for not responding to stuff or being as active recently, had a lot of work to be done and other stuff to focus on that took a lot of my time. I wanted to make more art, but I unfortunately had to put that energy into other things (which got to the point where I could not put them off any longer and had to stay working on it). I know I missed a lot of stuff and I'm sorry for it

I don't like to follow bookstagram trends but I find one super interesting (it's definitely NOT reading a popular bookstagram book).

I'm currently working on creating a box to randomly pick the next book I read. I have hopes to lower my tbr, well with my erratic reading sessions and me ordering second hand books cause I can buy more, it's gonna be a harsh task. Also it's gonna helping me read the books I bought to step out my comfort zone and then I ignored them. But also books that are in my comfort zone but have been here for year. And since my apartment is very small, yet 1/3 books if I avoid the same book lot of time, I will get rid of it.

BUT

While crafting this at past 10pm in the middle of the working week cause I needed to do it now (didn't finish considering the numbers of unread books I read), I have been struck by a sudden illumination.

Maybe, and really maybe, it's a hypothesis, I could apply the jar stuff for the daily stuff I have to do, chores, administrative paperwork, everything a normal human adult has to do. Maybe I could pick a task to do every day and it feels less overwhelming. I definitely need to try it.

"i hate love triangles" is such a common thing to hear, but we never really think about why.

sure, some people are just extremely decisive and hate watching the slow, painful indecision of love triangles. and the idea of stringing two people along when (generally) you can only have one is silly and a little unkind a lot of the time. plus it can be really frustrating to watch 1 single character wreck relationships (i'm looking at you, love triangles that pit siblings/best friends against each other), and mess things up around them through their own indecisiveness

another very frustrating thing about love triangles is that they're actually not as common as they feel. the media pushes love triangles all the time because they're marketable and a surefire way to get engagement by pitting fans against one another and putting them on a "team" and making it personal.

a storied example is the hunger games. suzanne collins made the point in the story about how katniss's romance with peeta was pushed to distract from the horrors of the games, and in the real world, lionsgate/the marketing team pushed the "love triangle" to distract from the heavy themes and political messaging of the story. but there was never really a love triangle. yes, katniss kissed 2 boys. yes, there was a point where she saw them both as viable options. but the narrative tells us she was never going to be able to pick anyone but peeta - gale is simply not ideologically right for her, and that is made relatively clear relatively early on. and yet the "love triangle" was pushed, when (unlike other stories like the summer i turned pretty or the vampire diaries) it never really existed.

but love triangles don't have to be bad if they service all the characters. in 'never have i ever', devi gets something completely different from each of her 2 main love interests (sorry des and ethan, i'm not counting you. neither of you lasted more than like 4 eps lol), and more importantly, even when broken up with her they get something from their relationships with her. she ends up pushing both ben and paxton to achieve their academic potential, as just one example.

doing love triangles correctly is hard. there probably isn't necessarily a "right" way. but if you can present an equally strong case for both characters, resolve the triangle without assassinating or throwing away the development of one of the characters, and keep the integrity and likeability of person in the middle, you might just be on the right path.

now reblog with examples of good/bad love triangles because my mind's gone blank and i can't just keep using nhie/tsitp/tvd
