im so sick and tired of not having a single person in my life who can or will help me. im all on my own with everything and that is too much for me to deal with, esp having avpd that is a fkn disability. idk what to do and everyday the thought od just killing myself gets bigger and bigger.
#like its all the little things#my phone and ipad is barely working#so i bought an adapter#and i spent an hour googling and researching bc im poor and i have to be careful w the money i spend#but guess what??? it didnt fucking work#so now i spent money on smth i have to just throw away lmao#and my storage is full and i can barely even use my devices#and since im poor and spent $35 this month#i cant try buying another one now.. i have to wait until next month lmaoooooooooo#and what if that doesnt work?!?!?#imagine if i just had a fkn friend or like anyone who could just lend me an adapter or a laptop or whatever#all i want is to transfer my photos to my harddrive but i cant!!!!!!!!#maybe i shouldjust delet all my thousands of photos#its not like my life or my memories fucking matter anyway#no one else have even taken photos of me in years#so then itll kinda be like i just stop existing#anyway.....#and this makes me think of like how i have to face all of life's horrors all alone#and im just too weak to do it i dont want to

You should have to pass a test about a book before you’re allowed to adapt it. I’m so sick of lazy, poorly written adaptations when you had a blueprint right there. Don’t @ me I know you have to make changes for the screen. Camelot (1967) is a masterpiece. Merlin of The Crystal Cave (1991) is delightful. The Winter King (2023) is an affront to book fans intelligence.
#it’s so fucking bad yall omg#aside from a handful of characters I like the majority of casting#but my god what the fuck was that story & pacing & costuming & the everything else#Jesus fucking Christ just bought the rights to shit on em huh#nightmare show what a disaster#can’t believe they didn’t consult me before finalizing the script#maybe it’s for the best there isn’t a Prose Tristan adaptation…….#they would do my buddies so dirty#my post

I’m re-reading Good Omens, or at least making a start at it, and I really don’t think I was prepared for how profoundly melancholy the opening scene is. You expect it to be, I don’t know, funny or even cute if the miniseries is what’s first in your mind, and that version is lovely. But this? is soul-achingly beautiful.
"I'm not sure it's actually possible for you to do evil," said Crawly sarcastically. Aziraphale didn't notice the tone.
"Oh, I do hope so," he said. "I really do hope so. It's been worrying me all afternoon." They watched the rain for a while.
"Funny thing is," said Crawly. "I keep wondering whether the apple thing wasn't the right thing to do, as well. A demon can get into real trouble, doing the right thing." He nudged the angel. "Funny if we both got it wrong, eh? Funny if I did the good thing and you did the bad one, eh?"
"Not really," said Aziraphale. Crawly looked at the rain.
"No," he said, sobering up. "I suppose not."
Slate-black curtains tumbled over Eden. Thunder growled among the hills. The animals, freshly named, cowered from the storm.Far away, in the dripping woods, something bright and fiery flickered among the trees. It was going to be a dark and stormy night.
They’re not enemies. They’re not friends, either, but they’re there, together, figuring it out for the first time side by side. And it’s not funny, somehow. It’s not happy. It’s not even something to be angry about. it just kind of is. And they’re just kind of they. But they’re figuring it out side by side, and that seems a worthy kind of start.
#good omens#well i say re-read#i think i got half way through it 2-3 decades ago#then lost my copy and never bought another and forgot most of that#the show was vaguely familiar but didn't hit like an adaptation for me somehow#so this is essentially a first-read with vaguely nostalgic undertones#i must say i quite like the feeling and love the gentle philosophizing even more

Well the Acro Trip anime just solidifies how I felt about the manga, it's so goddamn flimsy. The series never manages to go beyond the superficial and that's a shame because if Sawata could have actually committed to having something slightly deeper behind the gags the whole thing might have landed very differently - for me, anyway.
At least this week I can also relive something good in the Magilumiere anime, I guess. Not sure how the actual animation will stack up, but the story at least has something of value to say about work in the 21st century even if the magical girl elements veer non-traditional.
Plus Kana-chi remains adorable in all formats.
#personal#ramblings#would love to say the shoujo title was the stronger of the two#but just based on the manga alone it’s hydrogen bomb vs. coughing baby#so do yourself a favour and check out magilumiere despite the demographic#and hey see what you think of acro trip too but don’t expect magical girls like ribon produced 30 years ago#the gags are weak and the genre observations are very superficial#but it is shoujo so that's something i guess#i'm not huge on 'precure' but i feel most 'precure' seasons offer a lot more than 'acro trip' and are easier to recommend to kid viewers#tbh i wish i lived in the universe where enough other people bought 'majo kaitou LIP☆S' to warrant the adaptation it was aiming for#instead of the 'acro trip' adaptation universe#but i'm also still bitter over only two volumes of the 'ai seiki apple tender' manga in the 90s so y'know don't mind me

So I'm watching the Great Gatsby movie (the 2013 Baz Luhrman one because I love it a lot), and Leonardo DiCaprio says "sport" weird it goes back and forth between "spohwrt" "spahwt"
#the great gatsby#great gatsby#great gatsby (2013)#baz luhrmann#leonardo dicaprio#i know leo DiCaprio is a creep but he does make a good Gatsby#maybe thats why#i was gonna say that gatsby is only kind of a creep but like he did stalk a married woman and bought a house across the bay so he could#watch her. Creep behavior if you ask me.#anyways this adaptation is shockingly really accurate. like there are a lot of oarts that are word for word#this ismy first time watching it after reading the book and its interesting#anyways idk if its the accent hes putting or if thats just how he talks but its weird

I'm about to become the world's most unhinged 358/2 Days player (playing the game purely for the gameplay experience while not really paying attention to the story)
#kingdom hearts#358/2 days#in my defense#i already watched a roughly 22 hour full playthrough of the game#and watched the cutscene movie#and read the manga#and read the novel#yeah. the novel#and have skimmed the transcript countless times#including to compare the original ds version's script to every adaptation mentioned#so I definitely know the story#and I really only bought the game because I wanted to play as other organization members in mission mode shjsdhf#i want to hear every bitcrushed voice line and see every weapon attack and hit someone with a giant tennis racket#me post

gonna.... buy fingersmith soon.
#shitpost#im listening to a song that makes me think about the handmaiden because i REALLY want to make a video to this song#but am so intimidated by finding a download of the movie so. who knows if that will EVER happen#anyways. ive wanted to read the original book for years.#opens in another tab#im working on Dark Heir rn and after that I am supposed to read at LEAST the first book of another light novel series#(haven't bought it yet)#but then after that... maybe i will pick up fingersmith.#im just like. ok the handmaiden is SO good i have to know the original#esp because the handmaiden is a totally different setting but is still the adapted story?#which is so wildly fascinating to me#so i want to know the original and then comapre them#if you have not seen the handmaiden 1000000% recommend its SO good.

my next 2 forays into making things homemade that i usually buy (probably inferior) versions of are dumplings and chili oil. idk enough about chili oil to make a judgment on quality but vegetarian dumplings are both not sold at my local grocery store (so i have to take an extra trip to the asian market) and frequently not super delicious. and with the chili oil im like why not
#so far i have been making my own flour tortillas; granola; bread; yogurt; broth; syrups (usually for coffee); crackers; & other baked goods#because i am crazy and weird#many of these are thanks to my recent acquisition of a sourdough starter but not all#and the only one that still needs fine tuning is the yogurt.... i think i need to let it set for much longer next time#the granola & tortillas are WAY better than store bought. and not too hard. tortillas kinda take a while bc i have to cook them individuall#but if you like granola you should just start making your own ill give you the (easily adaptable) recipe i use if u ask#many of these also allow me to use less plastic which is an added bonus#personal

I hate how now every time a discourse is being had about classic Disney movies, the godawful remakes (or retellings) have to be included in the conversation. It's no longer just the animated movie that is adressed. You can't discuss Aladdin without its 2019 remake, Sleeping Beauty without its 2014 remake, The Little Mermaid without its 2023 remake, Beauty and the Beast without its 2017 remake, The Lion King without its 2019 remake, Mulan without its 2020 remake, etc, etc, etc. I hate how they will be forever attached to these classic movies. It actually pisses me off to no avail.
#anti disney#disney remakes#txt#“akshually this version did a lot of things better such as emphasizing the agency of these heroines” bro that was already in the original#movie and there was more to them anydamnways#the only remakes that are truly worth it are the cinderella one and the jungle book one#the rest are hot garbage that missed the point of the story and added unnecessary changes to the animated classics because they thought they#needed to be “improved”. fuck you fuck you fuck you FUCK YOU#i'm so mad that i didn't even censor that damn word#live-action adaptations of animated works are destroying what made the original work so special#they rarely get it right#call me a pissbaby and that i'm too attached to nostalgia. idc#hollywood doesn't give a damn about the medium of animation to this day and it shows with how they treat animated works#they give these adaptations and remakes/retellings that miss the entire point of the original work and unfortunately some people do defend#these obviously attempts at getting money out of people's nostalgia#they accuse us of being too attached to the original work because of nostalgia but they were the ones who bought into because of that lmao#and they actually liked it. you weren't THAT big of a fan then ma'am
