okay but for real, what are the odds that if we get to the Menagerie Coast and discuss going to the Shattered Teeth from there Chetney starts in on "yeah I used to know all the local shippers—they used to transport our toys everywhere—but in the last five years there was some upstart shipping company who got real popular, Stone's Throw Shipping—"

i saw a Take some time ago that's been haunting me for days. something about how game devs misunderstand the "Can You Pet The Dog" twitter/meme/momentum and just keep thoughtlessly adding dog petting mechanics in games without realising it isn't about the petting of the dog itself but about environmental interactability within a game.

is it???????? i mean i guess????????? i've been trying to rotate this and figure out what it's trying to get at and maybe i just don't play enough 3d open world games to get it. the implication is that games should strive for everything within an environment to have unique animations or reactions to everything in that world, which doesn't seem Quite Right. i suppose that in an open world game that advertises itself on endless possibility of interaction, not letting you pet a dog is like, Cruel and Unjust, the ultimate litmus test of "does this game REALLY grant you true freedom". but i still feel like people really just wanna pet the dog

update: getting good Insights and Context from friends in the comments...! it really does help to just ask for explanations sometimes haha

*deep breathes* Sooo, those last couple mins from the latest "Full Moon" ep... lets talk about that🍵🍵

Welp, here it is folks... the ep that finally gave us that hyped up "Asmodeon crystal" exchange teased at in the S2 Pt. 2 trailer. And... hooooo boi, I have formed so. many. thoughts. upon rewatching that scene a few times. Some that are... kiiiinda on the rant-y spectrum the more I lingered on 'em, so how bout I share them here lmao

Fair warning in advance, this maaaaay not be particularly "nice" to Stolas in these rambling thoughts, so if anyone out there's a big Stolas(+itz) fan... yall might wanna skip reading ahead- lol .w.;;

*claps*

Okay, so to start things off on a (semi?) positive note, the animation & lighting here is quite beautiful to look at. The glittery curtains, the shine in Blitz's eyes throughout his shifting emotions, even the shots of that one broken chandelier (which I thiiink might've been the same one him & Stolas played under as kids?) was a neat bit of symbolism ngl.

Props to Brandon Rogers as well for his voice-performance on Blitz here cause... gawd did it hit me in the heart how much hurt you feel from his yelling ;-;💔

Curious to see more of the use of Blitz's new Asmodeon crystal in future adventures (esp from that one shot in the trailer w/ him using the portal effects against the DHORK crew), it looks cool~ ✨👍

....ummmm, ok I think that about covers my positives atm. Onto the problems I have with this exchange:

Stolas... okay, you were this close to actually doing a good job ending the Full Moon deal. Admitting to how "wrong" the transaction part of their dynamic was, allowing Blitz more "freedom" via-the crystal (that could also help avoid any legal issues that the Grimoire gave), even wishing him good luck with his I.M.P. business as the night drew to a close... ...buuuuut then Stolas just had to muddle everything up by his whole "even tho you don't have to be with me, I want you with me if you want it~🥺" ...which honestly came off selfish to me than anything else?? Like, dude... if you really ARE regretful of how long you let this deal go for, and truly DO want to let Blitz go... you CAN'T throw in such sappy, lovey-dovey words on top of that?? Otherwise, how can one blame Blitz for getting as confused & flustered as he was throughout that convo... you've basically just sent even more mixed-messages in the grand scheme of things, my dude-🤦‍♀️

"I have wanted you for SO long, the fact that you couldn't believe that I might have these feelings about you, that your first instinct is that its always about sex..." ...Ummmmm Stolas... did you seriously forget HOW this whole deal of yall's started?? 🤨 Waaaay back in the initial-series pilot, to the first official ep, and pretty much the majority of Season 1:

As far as I checked, Blitz wasn't the one who kept making everything about sex... that. was all. YOU. 😒Heck, literally one of the first things you told Blitz upon reuniting as adults in "The Circus", was that you expected he wanted to "ravish" you-

-so like, get outta here with the whole pushing-the-perv-responsibility-bs onto Blitz... you ain't helping your case >>

Finally... like, it was already getting bad enough by the point of Blitz begging & pleading out of fear he'd lose his livelihood without the book, AND not being allowed space to breathe after getting further pushed away (and thus, more pissed off-)... but THEN on top of all this, Stolas just haaaaad to throw in this lil gem: "Blitz... I think so very highly of you. I didn't realize you think so low of me..." ...Stolas, with all due respect... stfu with that lousy, last-minute uwu-ing self-pity party crap😑Just because you TRIED to show more attentive care & concern post-"Ozzie's", outside of the typical bedroom stuff... that ain't gonna prove shit if you're not gonna be consistent with it. Where was that "high opinion" of Blitz during the two of you getting stuck in the sitcom set during "Seeing Stars", when Blitz was having that panic attack performing live, where all you ended up doing was... just hitting on him/praising his bedroom skills again?? 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Like... couldn't you have just, I dunno... TRY to actually cheer him up/comfort him like an actual friend, would? Encourage him on his jokes, "just be yourself", promising another way out of there on his own merit... literally, anything could've worked fine and it wouldn't have come off so skeezy imho >>;;

...*sighs* so, yeah... thats basically what I had to get off my chest regarding the ending of "Full Moon". Honestly, had the writers actually committed to Stolas cutting off Blitz (even if harsh), giving the crystal with no strings, then going about their separate ways afterwards, I would've been totally fine with the scene tbh. But all this... odd lowkey-blaming of Blitz thrown in, the sappy words, and Stolas not once actually-apologizing during all this (Like, literally I checked and the only utterance of "sorry" seemed to come from Blitz's end before he got kicked out... for what, I dunno- 🤷‍♀️). Sorry for the length btw, but hopefully that about covers my thoughts on the matter-

I tried to post this earlier and it ended up not posting, but I wanted to throw this in for my USA brethren for “Thank the Creatives Thursday“.

I apologize to the non—USA folks.

The drag is that I have access to the UK versions on my Google Drive, but I have no way of downloading the US version from Prime in an editable format, so I can’t give you the comparison. Let’s just call it generic. To its credit, it doesn’t try to emulate. There isn’t a cheesy piece of fake Zepplin. It’s a completely different vibe though. It’s the openings to “Sway” with the original Dean Martin music, and to “Pylon“ with the original Led Zeppelin. 

It’s a testament to Barrington Pheloung and Matthew Slater, and the care and craftsmanship the two of them employed. That’s original Slater music Morse is thinking about Joan and Fancy during, as he’s driving throughout the countryside in his little turquoise car. It’s just masterful what the two of them did musically for the show.

I love the show, but it’s an entirely different dimension with the music as intended. It’s just another layer of the onion that is our show. 

It’s six minutes. “Pylon” uploaded first for whatever reason.

Stupid poll I know but it’s just for fun.

Since I’ve seen transfem headcanons for all of them at least once:

Not Limited Life specific but if it helps you think then sure. But I just mean their characters in general. Not the actual CCs but if that helps you think????

Also NO “none” or “multiple/all”. That’s why I said if you HAD to pick ONE. Only one. And you have to. (Not really you can just scroll away)

Would mechi ever join the deserters?

I feel like Mechi would be very very stubbornly attached (in his own sort of way) to the first faction that earned his favour.

In this case, The Empire granted him a title before The Deserters offered him anything worth his while. Now, he’s going to be unshakeably loyal to The Empire while still being a total asshole to every one of their trade caravans or tribute collectors who pass by.
