It's on sight @ those who say Max only won because of the safety car (yet didn't say shit about Miami).
#in canada lando even got another chance via the 2nd safety car restart#and mclaren could've called him in earlier#(don't give me the fia fucked lando over and lando was past the pits by the time the sc was called!! - becuz it's not true for this race#and neither was it true for miami but ppl refuse to just look at the gps.)#and max perfected the safety car restarts and the gap on the medium stint despite having suspension issues + lando on fresher tyres#I swear the double standards of some f1 fans are so annoying#just look at the facts and data and be fr.#lando norris#max verstappen#canadian gp 2024#actl lando also got another chance during the 1st sc restart lol#im too lazy to edit my tags so that one will be stuck at the bottom#and he had the whole medium stint but could not match the pace#also it's so different?#safety cars always happen#but the controversy in miami was that lando did not get caught (yes ik it is within the rules but it hardly ever happens)#but here they all got caught by the sc like normal????? so why all this speculation?

Victorian sensation novels my beloved.
They're like Gothic fiction with a sense of humor.
Mysteries, but less methodical.
They're over-the-top drama with with memorable characters dealing with the craziest stuff you've ever seen.
They don't make them like that anymore.
#lady audley's secret by mary elizabeth braddon#is my first non-wilkie-collins sensation novel#and it's making it clear that i love this genre not just the author#the prose flows so much better than other victorian stuff#the pacing is propulsive#and i'm learning that guessing the plot twist does not have to destroy a mystery#because i figured out a twist right away#and i'm on the edge of my seat going 'when are they gonna figure it out???'#and it works because the characters aren't failing to put it together because they're stupid#but because we have more info than they do#the suspense is driving me nuts but it's a fun kind of insanity

Funny how the little snippet/trailer of the green witch arc that we got was better then the entirety of season 4.
#I’m joking#but also not really#like the suspense and the music and the pacing is just better#maybe I’m just excited so it making me biased 😭#I’m kinda hopeing they have a bigger budget the second time around#I think it took them a season to get a grasp on how to draw the characters#(im talking about Sebastian)#black butler#kuroshitsuji#sebastian michaelis#ciel phantomhive#black butler season 4#black butler season 5#black butler public school arc#black butler green witch arc#black butler anime#black butler manga#my post

kit im holding onto that post about a 2020 max classic race tomorrow like i am a baby bird
Tbh me and the voices in Max’s head the moment we saw him hit that steering wheel
#ask#♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️♨️#temperatures dropped and it was McLarens session to lose#rb20 suspension simply isn’t getting fixed for one lap pace this year#so I think whtvr comes next is justified#imma say this now because this is stinking of an Austria part 2

After watching next week's trailer again, I noticed that panels from chapter 89 were shown in it? If we're getting both chapters animated in a single episode (making it episode 11), and we also got 12 episodes in total for season 7, then what arc will be animated for the season finale? :o
#i hope the pacing will be okay... i'm looking forward to cry my eyes out next week without cringing about the episode's speed being everywhe#on the bright side! a single ep for this arc would mean i can feel devastated in one go without having to wait in suspense for the 2nd ep#but now i'm left wondering what arc will the last episode cover... i thought the tumblr users here had made perfect predictions of all the#episodes that we'll be getting in this season. so this realization came out as a surprise to me ngl... i can't stop wondering about it#please feel free to brainstorm and interact in this post!!! I fear I'll drive myself crazy thinking about the possibilities lmaooo 😭🙏#natsume yuujinchou#natsume yuujinchou s7#natsuyuu#natsume's book of friends#natsuyuu anime#natsuyuu s7#natsuyuu manga#natsuyuu spoilers#natsuyuu s7 spoilers#natsume reiko#morinaga souko

Finally got around to watching Over the Garden Wall with the fam (and before Spooky Season is over)! So good!
If you can get your hands on a hard copy of this (since I believe it isn't available on streaming anymore... Unless 🏴☠️) I recommend it!

oh my god
fujimoto when i get you FUJIMOTOR WHEN I FUCKING GET YOUUU
#chainsaw man#csm#csm 170#so that was a really good chapter#first of all great callout of the erasing names ability being attactched to fucking chainsaws of all things#then the suspenseful buildup to the reveal was really good#the anime is gonna make that REALLY well paced#then fucking. her head. i dont know man. i have no idea where this is gonna lead#every fucking cliffhanger for the last seven chapters has been a left#i am legitimately fully engrossed in this story this is insane#last time i was ever this drawn in was evangelion which is a goddamn accomplishment for ol tatsuki#next week cannot get here fast enough#good night tristate area

if anyone's wondering why i'm deep in the pjo trenches it's cause the show kind of sucked and at this point the original series is the only more-good-than-bad bit of the greco-roman riordanverse
#it would've been nice if the show didn't have the kids know everything from the outset#killed the suspense and pacing of the whole thing#annabeth was also too serious. let my girl be silly (not hate on leah the writing itself was eh)#overall it was just very bland and felt like it was going through the motions#upsetting given the resources it had

Writing Problem: The Novel's Questions Are Left Unanswered
Problem: The Novel's Questions Are Left Unanswered
Solution: Conflicts require consequences, character arcs require a destination, and unresolved or unanswered questions have their own purpose. But having too many unanswered questions can make a novel's ending feel too foggy, if not outright incomplete. In short, loose threads can be frustrating.
Handled appropriately, loose threads may encourage the reader to hum and ponder how each character's life may evolve following the novel's events. Some readers adore the beauty of an imperfect story. However, handled poorly, loose threads speak to a poorly planned and disorganized narrative for which the writer was mistakenly more invested in drafting a kitschy or vulgar hook than a purposeful climax or dénouement.

crazy that the last 2 episodes of the impossible heir are the best since the first one because who (other than me) was still watching at that point?
#the impossible heir#like i can't recommend this to people because over half the series is like maybe kinda watchable at best#there are too many good shows or fun bad shows to recommend a mostly dull fine show#i can't say the show is bad exactly. it's just got awful pacing and questionable character writing#it's mostly boring but has its moments of actually compelling suspense#every episode has a really solid five minutes and then you're praying the rest of the runtime will live up to it#at best half an episode is good like 3/12 times the whole season#I don't know how to explain how weirdly mid this series is

#the pacing is a bit slow if it's just 1 post per day#like the first rose ceremony would post on the 19th-ish#but maybe that would keep the suspense?#opinions and comments welcome!

I am finding myself slowing down on watching one piece the closer I get to marineford. This is what I get for spoiling myself on the series.
#the suspense of knowing what’s going to happen from end of thriller bark onwards is killing me#I know I could also solve this problem by just switching to reading the manga so I could just get through it at the intended pace#and read the whole thing in a week#but I’ve been watching it while I play stardew so I usually just play through the really slow repetitive bits#instead of continuing to watch the anime drag everything out more and more#so I will probably at least finish through marineford and then I will reassess post timeskip#if I should switch to the manga#one piece liveblog#one piece#Caitie speaks

ep 9 thoughts
#i stopped halfway thru HAJHAAJA#i think im coming 2 the conclusion that i can only rly appreciate stamp from an outside perspective#i.e when ppl post edits or whatever#even from like a Show Design standpoint i think the pacing is really bizarre#and im not even talking ab the story itself right. like moreso just character interactions and expressions#nothing really lingers or lasts and i feel like theres no big Oomph to scenes#when i saw the edit of knives fighting the guards it looked SOOO COOL#but when it happened in the show like.. the music wasnt rly fitting and theres a lack of environmental sfx outside of blood splats / metal#its soo hard to explain but somethinf is just MISSINGGG .. also when vash passed out for like .2 sexonds i laughed what was that#blink and u miss it kind of thing.. and vash losing his arm didnt feel suspenseful .. like i want to wnjoy the edits so much#*enjoy the reimagining#but you barely see luida (WAS THAT LUIDA FRR HWLP SHE LOOKS SO DIFFERENT)#you see hee for two seconds and suddenly this like monotone convo turns into omg vash angel arm WHAAT but u arent actually saying WHAAAT bc#u ddint have time to process anything and then its alr over . i just cant get into it im sry IM SRYY!!#and . i do generally just pref the structure of max and the intentional narrative choices w everything#the way knives cuts his arm off in anger in max vs like ‘to save himm❤️’ in stamp is much better @ characterizing him me thinks ..#overall i just think the manga had a better idea of what msg it wanted to convey whereas stamp is just a mixed grabbag of max references#trigun#trigun spoilers
