animal farm by george orwell: this book was undoubtedly fucking brilliant. i once again have proven my point in which anthromorphism is one of the most amazing ways of metaphorical writing/media. it successfully conveys the writers intended message in a digestible and almost humorous fashion. (bojack horseman) but but this is about animal farm! and i can with full confidence say this is the book i would recommend absolutely anybody. it is such an easy and simple read. in just 97 short pages, it touches on the terrifying regime of totalitarianism, the horrors of anti-intellectualism and the instability of an uneducated populous. i am once again profoundly petrified regarding anti-intellectualism and society lacking of a proper education. the totalitarianism to anger to enlightenment to revolution to (very momentary) communism to betrayal to back to fucking totalitarianism again ??? that pipeline legitimately shook me to my core in the greatest fucking way possible. and the last line was literal poetry. also the part where boxer was taken made me really sad.

i read homeland and this is mostly the impression i got
#it's really excellent he is just obsessed w that fucking cat#potent horsegirl energies#rip drizzt do'urden you would have fucking loved warrior cats#literally two thirds of the way through the book and we just grind to a complete halt so he can spend two pages writing soulful poetry#about how beautiful this panther is and how she's so good and pure and the only being in the world that truly understands him. oh my god#i actually read exile as well sorry for lying to you#i haven't got my hands on sojourn yet because they don't have it at my local libraries sooo i just bought it. and now i'm waiting#for it to arrive sitting at the door like a dog#he's so babygirl to me i'm obsessed#i can't wait to read the rest of the books and be disappointed because they probably suck LMFAO#i haven't read any books where catti brie appears yet since i've only read 2 but#i know of her. and a lot of other lod characters#absorbed through dnd cultural osmosis and the fact that i keep reading pages on the forgotten realms wiki that i shouldn't be reading#smiles#anyway#yeah#legend of drizzt#lod#drizzt do'urden#guenhwyvar#forgotten realms#dinin do'urden#catti-brie battlehammer

Maybe I'll make a post on this at some point but like, something deeply fucked up about TNP and Po3 that people have totally forgotten about is how badly they try to whine that "Tigerstar Had Good Traits :("
Firestar does it, Brambleclaw does it, and they keep doing this after it becomes this GRAND irony that Firestar almost gets Tiger'd to death in a fox trap because he was too trusting. Bramble gets his pity award of keeping deputyship and then cries to his son about how No One Saw The Good In Tigerstar :(
And it's wiiiiild that no one else in this fandom has done anything with the fact that Leopardstar broke the Warrior Code to appoint Hawkfrost, who had no apprentice, an extremely aggressive and warmongering Tigerclone who says things like "Tigerstar wasn't the worst cat to look up to." ONLY qualifying trait was being kinda like Tigerstar.
And she practically did that the SECOND Mistyfoot went missing. And then Leopardstar continued to be one of the most violent and xenophobic leaders through Po3, joining with WindClan to attack ThunderClan.
What I'm getting at is that like, a few years ago, with books like "Blackfoot's Reckoning" and "Shadow in RiverClan" it's like they suddenly decided to retcon in a bunch of "redemption arcs" in hindsight. They just pretended like there was this grand high reckoning with TigerClan, when there literally wasn't, and if anything that caused SERIOUS problems for the cast that the authors didn't fully acknowledge as such.
And now ppl haven't actually read the main series and are just working with their recent memory of all these retcon books.
But TNP and PO3 are still there, and you can go and see the ACTUAL timeline where Leopardstar is really not apologetic at all, and Blackstar is a useful stooge for the very next wannabe dictator that strolls in, in spite of the new side content that COMPLETELY mischaracterized them for their plots to work.
#I just wish people could be more critical of this#And im not entirely anti-retcon. Mind you#But I am here because i think these retcons make them WORSE characters. It's BAD for a character to GET a book with a redemption arc and--#Then they don't change at all and act like totally different people later in the timeline#And Leopardstar is the worse one between her and Blackstar BECAUSE she has sooo many active choices here#Im confident in my choice for BB the more I think about it. Leopardstar's dismantling of the bonehill was good#But it works better as a tragedy imo with the rest of the series in mind#That for a brief moment. A fleeting whim. She could have changed.#But she never did.#And Blackstar who was FAR less repentant at the time DID eventually turn around.#At the end of the day one of them appointed Hawkfrost as codebreaking deputy.#And the other did not.#And I think it's fucking bullshit the way that Leopardstar's retcondemption implies that Hawkfrost was just so tricky he mislead her#The old and experienced leader who had been fooled by a tiger before and was soso sorry for it. Just got tricked.#Like fuck off. She never had a redemption. Stop trying to tell me she did 15 years later#She's a girlboss who empires too close to the sun in pursuit of power and drags everyone down with her#Not a sad weepy smolbean#Bone babble#Warrior cats analysis

ITS SCARY IN THE SAME WAY AS LIKE#BEING UNDERWATER AND SOMETHINF DEADLY OR LIKE POISONOUS FLOATING TOWARDS REALLY SLOWLY#AND THATS SO FXJXK IN G COOL TO MEEEEEE#MY FAVOURITE THING EVER#FOR LIKE. CONCEPTS FOR MONSTERS#and i just loveeeeee all their like hundreds of tentacle things and the big shiny eyes and the fact that they look like a little broccoli#AND THEIR TOOTHY SMILE IS SOOO CUTE 2 ME I LOVE EYESS#they’re like a weird fucked up dog to me. it’s a shame that their husband died#(moloch

i know we all know that monstrous regiment is good but also monstrous regiment is so good
#terry pratchett was SOOO very good at writing about. darker topics and so good at balancing it appropriately w humour or lighthearted stuff#the stuff w blouse saying polly et all could not POSSIBLY disguise themselves as women is always so fucking funny#coupled w the fact that they do indeed immediatyely get clokced when they try it#i love it so much#but then in the same book. theres the bit when tonker is like yeah lofty killed two people but they were awful and got her pregnant#and the whole thing w wazzer.#not to mention the Horrors Of War#and geneder roles etc#anyways. yeah. one of my faves. always a joy to read#delete later

can a girl ramble aboutthe way you can interpret so many parts of the propaganda and characterization of rhine by other the people/general populace of teyvat as people largely antagonizing neurodivergent traits without being chased with pitchforks and torches.
#FUCKKKK DSOMMEBODY HEAR ME.#YES. i know shes a not a good person.#but half the shit she's described with by other sources#is so obviouslye exaggerated based onwho she is and NOBODDIESSSS talking abt it#'cold and unfeeling' MY ASS. THIS WOMAN WAS TALKING ABOUT EATING MOLD FOR A GOOD FOUR PARAGRAPHS ITSNOT THAT DEEP#the way she clearly a ton of albedo's behaviours but i dont see anybodyyyyy talk about it and just demonize her for it#THE HEXENSUCCESORS ARE ALL PARELLELS TO THE HEXENLADIES. THATS THE POINT#THE FACT RHINE LARGELY MIRRORS ALBEDO IS NOT A COINCEDENCE OR WEIRD INTERPRETATION ON ANYONES END.#the fact many of the trait she CLEARLY shares with albedo are demonized... HELLO..............#mond propaganda book writer gets shot IMMEDIATELY#-> i dont know guys. Maybe its also the fact she's probably traumatized from the. yknow. CATACLYSM. that made her a worse than albed#just maybe!#its sooo established that neurodivergence leads people to cope with stress different... Hello............ can we talk about this.........#NO HATE. but if I wathced my nation got destroyed > and this loser twink knight said i should've protected everyone/ when even HE DIDNT/#i wouldd also spiral. AND THATS CLEARLY WAHT HAPPENED ON SOME LEVEL.#if you read her hexenbook excerpt she is. quite literallh just sarcastic. blunt. and not emotionally experessive#WHICH ALIGNS WITH THE EXAGGREATED TRAITS SHES LATER CHARACTERIZED AS???#she literally JUST got worse symptoms as a result of trauma. why are we playing it up like this. “Great Sinner” my ass she's a woman ins te#they're all sinenrs if you really think about it. THEYRE IN STEM#-> the way neurodivergent women are demonized for sooo many traits they have just because it doesn't fit the mold of being a 'good women'#NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT THIS. ITS MOND#THEYRE NOTABLY. NOT ALWAYS DOING THE BEST. WITH FREEDOM AND GOOD OPINIONS BC OF VENTI'S ABSENCESSSSSSSSSSSSS#NOSHIT THIS TAKE WOULD COME FROM THEM..... MAKE SOME SENSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE#this is no hate because i love mond with alll my heart im just fucking insane over this. venti i love you#crepe rants

I wish all discworld Monstrous Regiment fanartists who draw Jack Jackrum a very
#discworld#jack jackrum#so many people out there need to learn how to draw fat people#for a book that’s all trans men butch lesbians and gender fucked girls#why do I see sooo many fan art pieces that twinkifies all of the lads and turns jackrum into a literal orb#there are also many good ones!#but I’ve seen one red orb posed as Jackrum too many

I’m starting to think WOF fans just actually hate the series.
#you people can’t stop complaining#my god I’m sick of it#and they aren’t complaining about actual issues#most of the problems they have with the new guidebook is because they can’t remember details from the series#nothing is good enough for y’all#can’t you just enjoy something when it comes out?#do you have to make a big list complaining about every part of it#wof#wings of fire#a guide to the dragon world#wings of fire: a guide to the dragon world#I’m sooo sick of this fandom#y’all are no fun#no excitement#have to shit on anything#can’t have anything good#or appreciate the new book#fuck off all of you

Beating veilguard may genuinely get me out of my writing slump because I Need To Fix It
#dragon age#dav critical#crow rambles#sorry for only talking about what i disliked rn i swear i have quite a few things i very much liked#i unironically think that this finaly battle is one of the best in the series#even if it took what? two fucking hours lmao#DEFINITELY a step up from corphyeus#it reminded me of the battle of denerim in a way which is always a win in my book#i do wish we could control companions bc having a similar set up to denerim where you control your companions when youre split#would have been SOOO fun i kept thinking about it#however i do kinda understand not doing that in that end battle bc that was a very VERY long end quest(s)#i dont think ghilinain was the hardest boss in the game which was disappointment#okay im about to yap about spoilers in the tags so. warning yay#anyways I complete forgot about felassan's run until i beat the damn game#credits started rolling and i went “oh. i could have done that.”#i meant elgarnan. not ghilinain. ugh sorry#anyways he has nothing on ghilinain's (the actial one) three headed monster. that shit was HARD#i think i died at least seven times? minimum??#siege of weisshaupt was ALSO a particularly good quest btw even if some of the dialogue was odd#the only boss that i strugged with so badly i had to lower my difficultly was that fucking dragon in the crossroads. what the fuck is its#problem. and that was WITH the blessing of mythal getting rid of its armor. 0/10 worst fucking fight ever oml

Doodle of my boy
#keese draws#eternal gales#oc art#oc#fydd <3333333333#he is my bestie I need to get over my fear of drawing him so bad#grips bathroom sink I Will get better at drawing for fun and letting my art be messy and being proud of it anyways#but yeah look at him he is so cute and is so silly and he’s never gone through any traumatic events ever I would never#<- lying lier who lies and loves tormenting it’s ocs#but yeah he’s half alien half human but was raised entirely by his human mom#his alien mom is alas stuck in the cult the two met at rip#fydd doesn’t know abt any of that tho he just knows that he has another mom that his mom doesn’t like talking abt#he loves playing games of all kind but especially loves video games and will play them for hours#not that he has much else to do since he’s spent pretty much his entire life living by a garbage dump in the middle of nowhere#and he’s not allowed to go fuck around in the dump much since his mom doesn’t want him to be seen so he’s stuck at home most of the time#thankfully now he has an adopted sister to play with but he still has viddy game autism#his mom has done her best to introduce him to the various cultures she and his other mom came from but she struggles with it#she was quite disconnected from her own culture growing up and she knows limited amount about her girlfriends home planet#fydd doesn’t mind much rn cause he’s 12 but a certain other older fydd might care a smidge more#fydd does like 60% know both japanese and spanish tho so that’s pretty cool#his mom tried to do regular lessons when he was younger but wasn’t able to keep them up consistently and eventually gave up#mostly because she wasn’t anywhere near fluent in either herself and she had a hard time keeping up with how fast fydd would pick up on it#they still have some books from back then laying around that fydd will pick up and read aloud when he’s bored sometimes#he gets bored of speaking english all the time as his brain is built to pick apart different sounds and assign them linguistic meaning#so reading and speaking different languages is good enrichment for him#his mom doesn’t know this unfortunately otherwise she totally would have gotten him more stuff in different languages to chew on#he does get to learn the language the stalien cast speaks tho he has a lot of fun with that#he alas can’t properly experience most stalien video games though rip#I should rly get to redesigning his human mom again at some point she needs it sooo bad#I mean her whole squad needs it but she’s my favorite so like
