the training montage in crossroads re-ignited a headcanon i had of geralt waking up and doing gymnastics, performing kickflips and mid-air spins around on a fencepost outside an hour before sunrise to ‘limber up,’ and bleary-eyed dandelion wrapping himself up in a blanket to be like "heyyy... what the hell are you doing 💖"
#if you're wondering what kind of moves he's doing he's standing on a fencepost and doing your typical flexibility stretches#but alternating between reps of stretches with kickflips from one post to the other#like ciri training in kaer morhen#i'm not going to lie witchers are cool but fandom ruined them a bit for me and now crossroads has given me that childlike wonder back#because fandom heard 'physical ability and stamina' and did you know what with it#but the agility and precision of witchers remain so underrated. as part of the deconstruction of the superhuman trope#geralt doesnt really show off as much in the books and does cool stuff only when needed but#like when (mentioned) he hit the rat in the darkness with his thrown fork... as a party trick#and killing renfri's men in the market at blaviken... and killing the scoia'tael on thanedd#and RUNNING ALONG THE BRIDGE on the battle of the bridge#and the nilfgaardians were amazed and they WERE AMAZED AS THEY DIED!!!!!!!!#and killing rience's mercenaries who didn't know who they were fighting so they were like hey what the fuck... what the fuck#i'm literally back to witcher 101 basics here. nothing interesting to contribute but like a little boy i am just smiling and saying#'dude geralt of rivia is soooo cool he can like fight a bunch of guys with his sword'#half of me wants to seek deeper themes and half of me is just like YOOO GERALT SO COOL !!#listen... there is a time to plant a time to reap#a time to analyze and a time to geek#i should probably just watch a bunch of ballet or best of gymnastics comps and i'll find what i'm looking for#also sorry CROSSROADS OF RAVENS SPOILERS artamon dying was a hilarious moment i know it was like oooh this will have consequences#but it was nice to have the evil antagonist get merked in the sme chapter as he's fucking introduced#and not even by mature experienced geralt but by some literal eighteen year-old who he tried pulling a fast one on#1) i was happy that sapkowski didn't drag it out terribly. this was humorous and refreshing after in season of storms#2) geralt almost riding off but having a feeling to go back... listen i know it's so cliche and it's giving lady of the lake chapter 4#where he eavesdrops in the caves under castle zubarran and just happens to hear stefan skellen reveal that vilgefortz was in castle stygga#but it also was satisfying to me because after reading the hussite trilogy#where reynevan (stupid and young man; like geralt here) DOES NOT LEARN after several. SEVERAL lessons#i was honestly worried for a second that we were going to get a reynevan moment. but no. because this is geralt and not reynevan#and seeing geralt develop critical thinking skills in real time was not only satisfying but a bit funny#and yes nostalgiabaiting me#like omggggg yesss his detective skills yesss that's so geralt of him

Fascinated with how the localization of Ace Attorney desperately wants you to believe it’s set in America despite it clearly being a satire of the Japanese legal system and has cases set in obviously Japanese locations
#the localization: dude trust me we are so in america rn this is literally california lol#the game: *literally making me look around a rural japan village that’s only an hour train ride away from the wright and co office*#*several things that don’t happen in american court but do in japanese court*#*just all around very obviously set in japan*#localization: yep definitely America all right :)#ace attorney

they'll say they made a "magical girl show but with a dark twist" then you look and it turns out to just be blatant disrespect
#magical girl#text#not all “dark magical girl” obviously#they want to ride the PMMM train but failed to realize why PMMM worked#and they already look down on the magical girl genre so they use it as an excuse to insult it#just say you hate young girls dude

So. So so sick today. Here’s a video of our resident pine marten getting freed from the dumpster after accidentally getting locked in
#his name is Paul and while he is very much a Wild Animal he’s pretty socialized and chill#there’s an old dude here who I always see riding a motorized skateboard he made with a joint in his mouth#and I saw him outside one day and he made this clicking noise with his throat#and the pine marten just like. came right up to him and chilled on the bench#apparently every night he brings it snacks and he’s trying to train him a bit#my right tonsil is a Balloon#my muscles are sore from this last week (mud season is no joke but we are Fulfilled)#last night I fell asleep at 8 pm. then I woke up at 2 am. then 3. then 5. then 7. then 2 pm#I wanna write. I wanna draw. but I’m so high on pain meds and The Devils Lettuce#clownboy decree#clowns zoo

Just walked out of Dune Part 2 and yall....
I'm more upset now than I was walking out of The Last Jedi
They took the story and burned it.
#i dont understand how you can mess that badly#justice for alia#4/10 because the visuals were stunning and the worm rides were awesome#the rest was trash#waste of money#waste of time#dune#dune part two#they were trying so hard to avoid the white savior thing in a story that fuckin revolves around a literal white savior#frank herbert was a racist ill grant you#and dude had more sensitivity than this fuckin train wreck#chani got zero progression#alia had zero screentime#they rushed EVERYTHING#and now theyre trying to bring in dune messiah when they could have just stuck with the first book story#that was already in three parts!!!#now if you'll excuse me#im going to go watch the scifi mini series from 2000 to cleanse my mind

Hmm should I take a book maybe? I probably won’t even get the time to read and it’s a short event and it’ll just be an extra thing to carry arou — take the book. Take The Book.
#this is a note to self actually#atleast i can read on my phone#i am on a twenty-four hour train ride and the next six days are gonna be tough#you always end up needing the book#bookblr#there are currently four marauder-coded young dudes in my compartment#bookworm#bookish#books#reading#writers on tumblr#i hope you have a great day

kawareeeeeeeeeee~~~~~~~~~
#(aka me when my acid burns randomly start throbbin’ when i bend over :( it’s very inconvenient)#in other news this week absolutely s u c k s can i trade it in for a better one—#first there was that acid spill. which. like. ouch???? but the mark is still there and is apparently very obvious. which sucks#then the day after the acid attack™️ meself and one other guy were called out under the assumption that we were doing unnecessary overtime#with the ‘unnecessary’ part running off the basis that there’s a low sample volume bc one single monday had fewer samples than usual#and we were singled out j u s t because our taxi claims for last month were through the roof due to the fact that we live across the country#like??? hellooo????? why are you treating it like it’s my fault that i have to pay upwards of $24 (at least) to get home???#and??? excuse????? why are you extrapolating the previous day’s sample volume to the previous month’s workload as a whole????#but. m a n. the way the mildly higher up lady abruptly shouted at me for asking a question just. pissed me off. for some reason.#she was talking in circles regarding the future of our taxi claims#so i asked if we (now) had to submit a second claims form for the transport company dudes to compensate us#and she yelled at me to stop talking before i could finish :( sadded and annoyed tbh#though i get the feeling that she hasn’t liked me ever since i left some results she asked for between her desk and some other guy’s desk#and someone else had placed their notebook or sth atop it so she couldn’t find it. and she blamed me for it. ha.#that was a few weeks ago though. so. hm. i wonder if she’s still mad about that…#either way. i applied for a couple of jobs that are closer to my place bc screw travelling across the country for an hour every day#s c r e w hour-long train rides i’d rather sleep#i prolly won’t even get the other jobs but. oh well. that’s life ig

riddle me this why the FUCK is it that I haven’t been able to like. Get Into reading anything as of late, despite being on paper enthused about it (*cough*If We Were Villains*cough*)
but fucking. fucking Snuff , by Chuck Palahniuk , that I read in like three hours on the train ?
#idk man something about that dudes writing style gets me I guess#I’ve got Choke sitting at home too so we’ll see how we go with that#it could also be the train thing. it could also be that. bc I read fight club in like three hours on a train ride also#I guess we’ll never know#ANYWAY all this to say it’s actually a pretty decent book#original content? on MY blog? it’s more likely than you think

main thing that scares me about moving to the west is that i'm so used to the comforts here that i won't be able to adapt. like what if i move to a city that doesn't have door to door public transport that literally costs like 3 pennies and this gum i found
#n just in general even the stuff that's like. technically less developed here#like i haaate how the west barely has paper based anything anymore#like FUCK you let me hold my train/bus/whatever ticket in my hand im gonna explode irl i hate screens#also cash going more and more out of fashion when so many places don't even take card here....#i haaaate technology and modernisation and everything being online#DUDE I WENT TO A CAFE IN CARDIFF THAT DIDNT HAVE MENUS AND ASKED ME TO SCAN A QR CODE#DUDE IM NOT DOING THAT. JUST GET ME A HOT CHOCOLATE???#i literally had to be like my phone can't even scan qr codes what is this😭#they terrify meeee stop moving everything online please please please please please#if i move somewhere where you have to scan stuff to eat and get groceries and ride the bus im moving home#barking
