So does Lee count as a monsterfucker now?
Nice dodge, but you're still not beating the "Ancient Monster" allegations, Diegesis.

NO BUT ALSO
Portions of the African continent have the zorilla, which while technically not a skunk (mustelidae instead of mephitidae) looks much like a skunk. And also, defends itself much like a skunk.
Which means the same settler/colonizer postulated in the original tweet might've gone, "That's it, I'm taking my crimes somewhere safer!" and then been ass-blasted by a completely different critter, "BARBARA, IT'S HAPPENED AGAIN!"

your f/o is deep in your guts trying desperately not to nut, but you're so warm and wet and squishing against them just so and you sound so cute and perfect... anyway, what are they thinking of to stay focused?
#izuku is thinking of how to best advertise his friends' hero merch at the hero convention next saturday without showing a preference#asta is thinking of better recipes for moguro leaf juice that he could adapt from a clover tasty! recipe#tanjiro is thinking about the easiest places to find fatsia sprouts without depleting the ecosystem#reno is not thinking#tsukasa is thinking about protein powder that also doubles as hair skin and nails treatment#yuuji is memorizing that bee movie gif backwards#mash is also not thinking#suo is thinking about how the best defense is a good offense#barou brought protection and does not care#mimi speaks

dom from the athletic dropped a great article today on his assessment of the leafs play style and why it's resulting in loss after loss. asking your best offensive players to lean into their defensive roles more instead of letting them do what they do best obviously won't get you where you need to be, but it's 100% more a failure with the playoff mindset and coaching than with the individual player's abilities. it was an interesting read, and i agree with so much of it. responsibility really does fall to mitch and auston in so many ways bc they have both developed their offensive and defensive games, but leaning on playing safe just isn't working. run it back with a better dcore and let them be the harlem globetrotters they normally are PLEASE.
#toronto maple leafs#hockeystats#or analysis i guess lol#i agree w it all tbh#auston matthews#mitch marner#its why willy Looks better offensively in the playoffs but his differentials still arent good lol#he cant be asked to play defensively safe bc thats not part of his game ever lol#but there needs to be a balance bc our two best players are having to sacrifice their own offense#to make up for the rest of the teams lack of defense n thats bfdnjd like#lets get a different philosophy n some real nhl dmen bfmsjd#i get WHY its a style they tried. i dont get sticking with it this long when its not working but#this whole article is just confirmation bias to like BAndnd EXACTLY THANK U !

mindlessly scrolled through tiktok today and saw a rhaewin edit of harwin saving rhaenyra during her and laenor's wedding feast + harwin beating up criston (set to the 'i need a big boy' sound) anyway my thoughts immediately turned to jace's kingship and i went
"jace enters a room but the first thing ppl see is joffrey's shadow and the first thing they hear is the sound of aegon iii's armor"
basically joffrey most closely inherits harwin's sheer mass+height meanwhile aeggie grew up to be part of jace's kingsguard (also #justiceforjoffreyvelaryoncommanderofthecitywatch)
#jacaerys velaryon#joffrey velaryon#aegon iii targaryen#king jacaerys targaryen first of his name#hotd thoughts#rhaewin#best believe NONE of them play abt jace's safety#i'm a big fan of mad dog joffrey#bc yknow harwin's build on a boy DAEMON raised??🤭🤭#the flavor is simply too good#also a big fan of calm and collected but no less protective aegon iii#when jace is threatened joff plays offense while aeg plays defense basically#and they're always together#my precious middle children🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻#hotd headcanon

#I was talking to some buddies about lies of p and sekiro and how LoP’s defense as offense mentality helped get into sekiro#but then how sekiro overwrote that mentality with its own “offense is the best defense” mentality#or “hesitate and you lose” as Grandpappy isshin would say#and how the switch for the change for me was genichiro who I think is one of the best designed bosses in gaming#you CAN’T play too defensively with him because he’s happy to pepper you with arrows from a distance#and then the moment comes when you realize your sword interrupts his bow attacks sekiro truly begins as a game#lady butterfly is also a good fight but all her moves bring her to you so there’s less incentive to be as aggressive#vs genny baby who will back off and fire off his bow if you let him#this isn’t even like a video of me playing perfectly but I LOVE getting my feudal edgelord corner stunned and just bursting him down#I kinda hate the owl shinobi fight bc he hits too hard and his attacks just aren’t interesting to react to#but it’s also possible to corner stun him and just go to town on his health bar#owl father and inner father are much better fights and I actually really enjoyed inner father a lot#but the Ashina family fights are absolutely stunning achievements in game design imo#perfectly balanced to be difficult but fair and visually stunning to boot#even if there is a layer of artificial difficulty in the final battle with the flowers obscuring their swords when they’re crouched#but the animations are solid enough that there are enough other more subtle differences like how hes shifting his weight#if he’s centered he’s going to lunge but if he’s angled he’s gonna sweep#I had so much fun with LoP and sekiro 🥰🥰🥰 I crave more…#I can’t say the combat in Elden ring gorilla gripped me like these two games have but I like HAVE to play dark souls I know this#sekiro#tsuchi plays games

so one thing about melanie that i think people often forget is that she's not a naturally aggresive person, at least not in the sense that she immediately goes into a situation looking to bite someone's head off. melanie, rather, is deeply defensive. i think this is most aparent in season one and two, but it's a trait that i think remains all throughout. the only time she doesn't at least try to start an interaction in a peaceful manner is when the bullet is buried at its deepest in her.
otherwise all her conversations seem to follow a pattern: trying to keep calm and civil, reaching out with an olive branch, only to at the very first sign of offense snatch it back and lash out instead. melanie's main cause for aggression is not some inate tendency towards violence or threat, but rather a deep insecurity formed by a life-time of being doubted or questioned or mocked. be the one to hit first and hit hardest, and maybe their punches won't feel as bad
#it's like when artists feel the need to critique their art and tear it to shreds before anyone else gets the chance#people who think she just enjoys tearing into people#and always views her actions through that lense severly misunderstand her character#because she tries! she tries so hard!#it's just that at the first sign of threat she can't help but revert back to safety#and sometimes the best defense is a good offense#even if there's not true need to defend yourself#melanie king#tma#the magnus archives

yes I'm on episode three yes I'm already fuming
#just start S1 of tTUK#annnnnd I do not like how John and Theo behaved like sulky bullies#I knew Imran wasn't going to last long bc he's one of those brilliant bookish kids who is fast-tracked and gets the academic achievements#but then is behind in their social skills development#and that was always gonna bite him in the ass#I don't know why Theo was so immediately against Imran#except maybe a reactionary thing to seeing this kid who tbh looks pretty sheltered#Theo was giving the best defense is a good offense but with zero apparent motivation?#like he expected Imran to come for him so went for Imran first?#and John#just fuck John honestly#the vibes are that gay guy who is also the biggest misogynist you know#like absolutely disgusted by women#appalled that they exist#and idk I guess seething at Aaron for being a fit straight guy#like also his throwaway comment to Tom asking if he's being blinded by his straightness bc Alex is pretty#like jesus imagine if anyone asked him if HE might be being biased in how he behaves towards the handsome men#John could dish it out but I don't think he could take it#The Traitors#spoilers#The Traitors UK

wait i know people were mad at aziraphale for emotionally destroying crowley, valid, but they also want him to stay???
yeah the divorce is awful but heaven is where he should be going imo? assuming (impossibly lol) they manage to actually mature emotionally (lmaoooo) and work things out together, my preferred next step for them is: aziraphale goes with the metatron anyway
he doesnt even have to stay long really. just enough to do a major thwarting, find out more about apocalyptwo, idk steal the book of life, find some allies, get a bead on jesus, whatever. yeah its a trap but also aziraphale is unhinged let him fight
let him bumble let him triumph let him do his little magic tricksies in defense of love and home
i cannot bear to waste the opportunity for double agent angel shenanigans even in the romantically resolved timelines
#good omens#aziraphale#crowley#ineffable husbands#like this isnt even bc plot or bc the best defense is offense of whatever i mostly just want to set him loose in the henhouse#it will be fine bc the metatron underestimates him severely and everyone else is stupid except possible allies#crowley can come along and live out his james bond fantasies or he can do work on earth i am fine with either tbh#but aziraphale.... into the lions den he must go. for the earth and for crowley and for character growth but mostly for entertainment

I'm finally getting tired of playing BG3 but I still want to finish my 3 sorcerers/1 wizard honour mode playthrough bc I want to have played the entirety of this game on the highest difficulty available with only casters as a personal achievement
But also as a proof that having a balanced party in this game straight up isn't beneficial in any way bc I always get irked (I'm not claiming it's a rational reaction) when people say they can't have Gale in their party bc they're playing a sorc or some other such thing
#my posts#in this game the best defense is a good offense lmao#kill everything before it kills you#preferably before it's even their turn
