examining a seemingly normal image only to slowly realize the clear signs of AI generated art.... i know what you are... you cannot hide your true nature from me... go back where you came from... out of my sight with haste, wretched and vile husk

Things I choose to be offended by

1. Sunfyre didn't spit out golden flames and I am SO MAD. The ruined the only green I liked.

2. Rhaenys and Meleys deal huge damage to Aegon and Sunfyre and basically lead to his injuries more than Vhagar does. And yes, show Red Queens did a lot of damage, BUT THE MELTING THE ARMOR INTO AEGON BIT IS SO POETIC, ESPECIALLY FOR BAELA'S ARC AGAINST SUNFYRE!!!! Already I'm offended that some fucking how that gigantic godzilla beast managed to sneak past Rhaenys and outfly Meleys to the drop of the cliff at rooks rest, BUT THEN YOU GO AND HAVE HER KILL MELEYS WITH A DECAPITATING CHOMP INSTEAD OF A DOGFIGHT IN THE AIR WHERE MELEYS GIVES IT HER ALL AND RHAENYS AND HER HIT THE GROUND AND PRESSUMABLY DIE TOGETHER IN A BLAZE!? LIKE!?

AND HOW THE HELL DID VHAGAR PICK UP ENOUGH SPEED TO FLY THAT HIGH UP THAT FAST!?. DID GRANDMA VHAGAR SOMEHOW MANAGE TO PUT NITROUS UP HER ASS AND FLY OUT TO THE SEA LIKE MELEYS DID AND THEN WHOOMP UP TO CATCH MELEYS NOISELESSLY AND FLY HER UP AT LIKE MACH 10!?

It's so minor, and it's so cool for the story that Aemond basically attempted regicide and fratricide and whatever but CMON MAN. I STAND IN ANGER AND ON BUSINESS FOR RHAENYS AND MELEYS

One of the reasons why I'm so excited to see the Crows in DAV is because they've definitely been retconned since the last time we got any sort of inside look at them. I mean, Zevran didn't tell us much to begin with but his talk about cells and the royal family inheriting control of individual Crow cells and the way contracts seem to be taken up by individual Crows rather than the organization as a whole or the houses (see how the contract on the Warden is taken up by Zevran and Taliesen specifically, with Ignacio explaining that while the Warden will have to deal with Taliesen sooner or later they can make sure no one helps him or picks up the contract if he fails by endearing themselves to other Crows) doesn't fit all that well with the houses we see in TN and DAV. So this will in a way be our first look at what the Crows are really like, both because our first glimpse wasn't exactly unbiased (although Zevran does acknowledge that the Crows weren't bad for everyone and could be a very good life for some people, he just couldn't stay after what happened with Rinna) and because the information we got from him probably isn't accurate anymore.

i will admit i did watch that video of that guy butchering that alligator and every time he made a comment about how fatty the tail was i was like. taking notes.

actually one of us is lying being filmed in new zealand actually makes a shit tonne of sense because it's a common thing wherein when tv shows and movies "fake" a setting they understandably try and show as little of the setting as possible (makes sense) and tbh i realised we didnt really see a lot of the town of bayview.

still find it absolutely hilarious that there was an australian pretending to be an american accused of killing an irishman pretending to be american in new zealand pretending to be america. its actually so weird when you think of media that way. the australian played a very good american bad boy but once i knew, yeah that man knows what triple j is.

life really fucking sucks right now

Look I love my friends dearly and I love listening and supporting, and I will be there for them and I will be the person they can turn to, and I try so hard to be considerate, but I have nothing in me to give right now. Most of my relationships involve me just giving giving giving, and as much as I love doing that (I truly do, being someone my friends can turn to is the most wonderful thing in the world), but I have so few relationships where I receive, and it's especially hard for me right now. Maybe it's cause I'm so busy with my exams and thesis and organising a camp, but at this point I just need someone who will give me a hug and just Be There. Not try telling me what to do, or how to deal with my stress to try "help".

I started by telling myself I shouldn't feel bad that I didn't get all my planned chores done: Saturday is a rest day, and we've just finished three weeks of crunch at work. (Next week might also be crunch but probably not; the product ships at the end of the week but we should be in good enough shape already.)

But then I realized: I ran three errands in the morning, and did three chores in the evening--even if one of the chores was just "cook a healthy dinner" and two of the chores were banking-related on a website. (But one involved sending text messages, and one involved an actual phone call to customer service, so I can't even really say they were just on a website.) That's six things I got done on a rest day. I may have overscheduled by saying I'd do at least eight things, but still, six things is very good.

currently experiencing The Horrors (thinking abt the fact that i have to start going into the office again from tomorrow)

this will either fix me entirely or cause me to descend so deeply into my burnout sinkhole that i will never be seen or heard from again

i like thinking about shri’iia’s life pre receiving her oath/turning into a paladin where she was yet another swindler in menzoberranzan. sometimes I think about changing her background to urchin just because her childhood was particularly rough - since she was raised in poverty she had to literally build herself from the ground up and she didn’t care what she had to do, her only focus was getting herself out of the slums - but then the liar and cheater aspect of charlatans is such a core part of her character that i can not! before I used to have this hc that shri’iia had this particular network of people she used to work with - since she doesn’t bear any allegiance to any houses, she becomes the sort of middle man for people looking to ruin someone else since the trail won’t lead back to them - but I think she’s not capable of running such an intricate network lmfao like there’s a reason why she’s a very good attack dog and not the person pointing where to bite, but I think I like the idea of her being something similar where she will cheat and swindle people if she’s paid to do so, and I also like the idea of her hanging around the upper city and learning how the middle class/nobles talk and studying their mannerisms so she can blend in their ranks, pretend to be one of them. it’s to cheat and steal from them ofc but I also think it’s a wish fulfilment in her part bc that’s who she wanted to be you know, they’re the kind of drows lolth expects her children to be, and shri’iia is def manifesting that for herself. she believes she’s destined for better! bc lolth says that drows are above all! so she can’t be living in braeryn where the slaves and the non drows are….that’s not Right.

hence why, when she got that offer to join a noble house in exchange for her allegiance (autonomy) she didn’t think twice just accepted bc it’s exactly what she wanted.
