Silly THR stuff from last fall 2/2

Tears of the Nameless prediction (in retrospect I'd swap Reath with Amadeo and Azlin with Reath lmao)

One, I can't believe just how I sat and watched that massive 3-hour episode in one sitting...

I did have to pause it several times just to gasp and scream and marinate in the revealed information. My only contribution to the tag is to say that my blood went SO cold when Porter got that telepathic message and turned back around to spar with Fig?!?!?!?!?

That stun fucked me upppppp.

Got up at 2:45am to pee. Opened the bedroom door just in time for the cat to chase a mouse INTO my bedroom. Never seen a mouse in this house before. It went and hid behind the laundry hamper. The cat is still waiting for it to emerge. I'm sitting up in the middle of the bed. I do not think I will sleep. I don't like mice. They skitter.

Sometimes you gotta make stuff up. Some options:

-the golden tomato: golden for our dreams. Tomato for a) kink tomato and b) rotten tomatoes are what you throw at things you don't want. Fruit for the parallel to golden apples.

(I was really hopping that the French for a tomato would be a pomme de something, a la pomme grenade (?) or pomme de terre, but no such luck.)

-If you want a fancy German word, it definitely needs to end in Trauer. You want to be more sympathetic than dismissive, so we don't want Selbstliebe, but I think a Treue-Trauer word would be neat and close. Umarbeitung is the word for adaptation. I'd like to get selbst in there somewhere but I think we're running out of space. Umarbeitungstreuetrauer? To be a little less correct and more punny, we could also go with Umarbeitungselbstreuetrauer.

-again, French would be nice but I don't speak any

-when I had this lack-of-a-word problem, Tea directed me to [redacted] Gerard Manley Hopkins, and his concept of quiddity. So you could also look to poets creating words. Or philosophers.

Anyone care to jump in?

I wish I saw more discussion about the kind of grief that can be felt about a media adaptation which isn't right for you, regardless of the adaptation's quality on its own merits. It's not a profound grief or a deep one, but the reality of the world is that tv/movie adaptations are expensive and generally singular, and if you come to them hoping to feel the same emotions you felt about the original and you don't...there's a grieving process there, a hope denied.

The way some people act about that grief is, um, wildly disproportionate and frankly disrespectful to adaptations as stand-alone works of art, especially when it crosses into the entitlement of Everything Should Cater To Me Personally, but it doesn't come from nowhere. I genuinely wish there was more space for people to be sad about what they didn't get rather than angry.
