there's something to be said about the choice to use "prince" as the main signifier of military rank for the andalites. because it kinda obscures the truth of the situation, doesn't it? a group of kids getting magic powers from an alien prince sounds whimsical and delightful. a group of kids getting pulled into a war by an alien colonel sounds tragic and horrible. the slow reveal of what "prince" actually means over the course of the early books is perhaps the most underrated twist of the entire series, because it fundamentally recontextualizes the entire premise of the series without the reader even consciously realizing it.
#i feel like there's probably a good analysis you could make about how the title of “prince” shapes jake's arc throughout the series#like it's very clear how ax ascribing that rank to him affects ax's own arc#but i think there's something there about how prince elfangor remains a beacon of respect throughout the entire series#while prince jake becomes more bloodstained and morally burdened#and the few times he invokes the prince title himself are fascinating#eh maybe a topic to think about for another time#animorphs#andalites#idiot teenagers with a death wish#koolmathgames.com

*In the voice of someone who's only media experience is jjba*: Wow, getting a lot of jjba vibes from tf2
Amidst the chaos and disappointments that encompassed my last two months, I had a fun connection about two of my favorite brain rot comics - you got an immortal(ish) with a harsh backstory who spirals into obsessive hatred that ends in the stealing of their obsession's bodies and subsequently haunt those family lines and those adjacent to them for generations - and I liken the Zeppelis, who shares the Joestar's generational curse by Dio/immortal creatures in general, to the Conaghers who I also see as helpers to the Mann line Its a really cool angle to look at Engie in, who since I was 14 was my least favorite character lol, this really elevated him for me
And so if the Manns are like the Joestars, that means like, Olivia Man is the equivalent of Joseph lol which is very funny to me
#tf2#team fortress 2#tf2 engie#dell conagher#tf2 administrator#tf2 olivia mann#radigan conagher#do yall use their full names in tags?? Or just the titles#Dells is like... on equal usage of both to me so i wasnt sure lol#jjba#i guess#yknow i rambled on about this in other tags but its also noteworthy that Olivia - as a Mann descendent - also gets to break free#of the cycle of violence - I mean shell probably end that Mann tradition of overpowering and killing your own family lol#I think also- whether intentionally or not- that you could say something about the fact that shes the first GIRL born to a Mann#unless that theory about the administrator also being a Mann ever gets some more hints or a confirmation - I Think that one is a#very interesting one!! and that it also could add to Olivia being kind of like... a redemption? Of Helen? If that makes sense#Like I think it could add more emotional weight for both that Olivia gets to live out being free where Helen couldnt let go of being a Mann#Analyzing that specifically through a feminist lens/reading would be fascinating but im not very articulate lol just grasping at substance#would love to hear others thoughts on that tho - if anyone read this far lol#might just makes these tags its own posts damn

You're still standing off to the side. Somehow, center stage has shifted from under your feet without you realizing, and you're standing in the wings, performing to no one.

GUYS IM SCARED
#is it foreshadowing becky and clive interrupting gordons emergence???#something bryony is gonna do?#WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING TO MY BOY#is this why gordons last name is porlock. so they could use this title. or is it referencing his tendency to intrude on redval conspiracies#and how he found the facility despite not being supposed to in s1#probably both tbh#red valley#red valley spoilers#gordon porlock#spooky ghost noises

inspired by a conversation i had with mars the other day, i ask tennisblr:
*significant can mean a 1000, the wta/atp finals, the billie jean king/davis cup finals or something else i'm forgetting that's particularly important during the tennis season. some of these have dates that have varied more than others over the years but regardless since every tournament obviously happens on different dates every year i'm asking usually, so if most years your birthday is during, for example, indian wells or the davis cup finals pick the 2nd option even if sometimes it isn't, you know
#overexplained this probably#tennis#polls#nico rambles#my answer is yes. my bday is pretty much always during the us open#i was telling mars THE sincaraz match was the night after my bday. also flavia beat stosur on my bday on the way to her title!!#and i've sadly seen matteo lose on my bday twice.. 2 years in a row (that semi vs rafa ...)#i'm going by when the match happens here in italy btw bc i mean if it's already the 7th here it's my bday even if it's the 6th in the us#anyway last year i didn't even realise it was past midnight and it was my bday bc THAT FUCKASS JANNIK JACK MATCH WAS DRAINING MY LIFE FORCE#but i can happily say aryna won the us open on my bday and jan the day after... presents for me!!#oh also for loena if you're reading this: bianca also won uso on my bday <3#i think roger lost to delpo on my bday as well. that's as far as i can remember notable things happening in tennis that day#it's kind of a double edged sword especially bc it's also usually towards the end of the tournament so very important matches#and i can start or end my bday watching my fave win which is fucking fantastic... or i could watch them lose. which is considerably less so

A lost little king, seeking advice from all corners of Azeroth, finds himself searching for this 'Loa of Kings'. He is surprised when he finds it's someone he's met before...
#world of warcraft#anduin wrynn#Vol'jin#Ugghh Anduin and Voljin are my favorite Alliance and Horde characters and I want them to talk so badllyy#LISTEN THEYVE GOT SO MUCH IN COMMON#Both were nearly killed by Garrosh and played a big role in the Pandaria story#Both lost their fathers too soon and were leaders too soon and have been betrayed by close friends#And both have had a peek into the Shadowlands in ways theyre probably still processing and could bond even over that#Anduin is questioning his ability to be a leader at all and Voljin is still figuring out who he is when he keeps stumbling into titles he#wasn't fighting for#Warchief and now potentially a full blown loa like#I just think theres alot they could speak on and that Anduin could use the perspective of someone like Voljin

How Homestuck Beyond Canon Candy Timeline has/will have parallels with Homestuck proper around and during the events of [S] Game Over
Jane Crocker heavily aligned/influenced by with Crocker Corp. Notice how her neck accessory looks very similar to the Crocker computer tiara. There's also the circuits surrounding the button, which are reminiscent of Crockertier Jane's visual mind control effect by The Condesce.
Jane also kind of looks like The Condesce with how she's silhouetted here.
The head of Crocker Corporation on a large Crocker space ship. A ship which I would like to point out looks eerily similar to the ship that The Condesce flies around in except the forks/sporks are facing the opposite direction and it's got black on it instead of mostly red.
Jake dying at the hands of Crocker influenced Jane and coming back to life parallels with this Jane coming close to killing Jake, but stopping right before death. Same green text too.
The cast of characters surrounding this time in the comic are also similar.
We also got the whole Crocker laser beam of death being hinted at which we've absolutely seen before.
I talked about this in one of my previous theories, Jake is getting a better grasp of his hope powers; so, I think we could see another hope explosion again in some capacity out of Jake's concern for Tavvy.
I could also totally see Jake being held hostage by one of the Crocker Clones A.K.A. the Brig Boys and Kanaya cutting them up with her chainsaw (hopefully avoiding Jake).
This is more of a little side detail, but Vriska is once again on the sidelines while this massive important fight takes place because she's trapped in her own personal Hell this time.
CHARACTER DEATH FLAGS - I don't know how to organize this post and there was a lot more potential evidence to this than I thought there was going into it.
Let me preface this with the fact that the existential split between Meat and Candy sometimes seems to try to course correct itself and much like certain peoples DNIs, it doesn't want any doubles. We see this with Dirk, Dave (he died even if he ascended to ultimate self afterwards), June/J/John, Terezi(seemingly), Meenah (her other self is in the black hole with Lord English so we can't necessarily confirm death but yknow), Aradia (is just Aradia), Gamzee, Calliope (that is a whole complex situation), and Rose (if her future sight is correct, but we'll get to that). Those are the only examples I can think of at this time, but it's absolutely a repeating pattern of the universe sort of course-correcting to have only one of each of our main characters exist at a time. This, at least in the cases of Dirk, Dave, & Rose seems to be related to the ascension to ultimate self, but we can't really say if that's why the other characters only get one existence at this time.
Karkat has has at least 2 deaths from around this time, one involving Crockertier Jane as well which could be a sign of things to come.
Rose's death flag is that she has literally foreseen her death in her future sight. She is thinking about Kanaya and Roxy in the same thought process while seeing her own death, feeling full of regret (even though she's trying to repress her own feelings) about her relationship to Roxy and Kanaya. Very similar to her being regretful as she was dying in Roxy's arms. I'm also guessing the bullet that hits her will be from Jake's gun, just throwing that out as a possibility.
ROSE: What... ROSE: Happened to me? ROXY: the witch got u ROXY: with her fork ROXY: but youre gonna be ok ROSE: Oh. ROSE: That's nice. ROSE: *Cough.* ROXY: maybe you uh ROXY: shouldnt try to talk now ROSE: You saved me, didn't you? ROXY: ... ROSE: Thanks. ROSE: But, ROSE: She's gone, isn't she. ROSE: For good, I mean. ROXY: ? ROSE: I saw her die. ROSE: And. ROSE: It's a shame how... ROSE: *Cough.* ROSE: A shame that I never even... ROSE: Got to tell her... ROSE: I loved her. ROXY: who?
ROSE: Kanaya. ROSE: But... ROSE: You too, mom.
Kanaya also has a death flag here in getting hit by The Condesce's laser beam of death, but it's more of a maybe given that we see Rose's future vision of Kanaya holding her body in her arms. Keep in mind though we also had this bit of dialogue about the reliability of future sight right before we saw that vision.
JADE: dont forget im more than a little versed in future sight myself ok JADE: i dont care how credible it seems, you cant depend on that information!
Jake and Jane are also on the chopping block potentially, but I can't think of a way at this time, unless Kanaya mistakes Jake for one of the clones amidst her rage and ends up cutting through him along with the Crocker clones. The one pictured below was done by Aranea who is out of the story. Maybe Meenah's trident hits Jake somehow or something, I don't know. We also have meat Jake and Jane who are doing more okay.
On top of the parallels to the doomed timeline that was [S] Game Over, we also had Vriska say that this reality was fake and didn't matter. I'm paraphrasing and I don't know if we'll get a doomed timeline situation yet with the 4 kids still in it, but I just thought the amount of parallels was interesting & worth pointing out.
I also wanted to get this out before the next update in case it's related to the flash animation and any of my predictions come true.
Alternatively I think the flash animation will be Ultimate Dirk kick starting his SBURB home brew session on Deltritus. He probably has all the tech and narrative powers to do it based on what we've seen, they just need a species they'll both be satisfied with as the players for the session.

Captor could help but would need cover while he blasts#Anyway this mostly started from Jane's whole batterwitch vibe she has going on with Crocker corporation and her laser machine#hopefully Kanaya will be okay; but I'm definitely super worried about Rose atm and Jake too; also what's going on with Tavvy#Candy Jane as the new condesce it's not looking good for Commander Karkat Meenah or Kanaya.

one thing that's good about every version of cherry magic is that by virtue of its core premise, and, indeed, the full title of the japanese series (Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!) you know that you will be getting at least one character who is at least thirty years old. and i can't tell you how much i love when characters are at least thirty years old. it's excellent, we should do more of that
#the thing about Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! that one might not expect#when reading a title like Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?!#is that it's actually very sweet. and kind and thoughtful. AND it's about someone who turns thirty (and becomes a wizard*)#(* whose only power is mindreading. truly this title sounds so wild but the show is so deeply low key considering)#anyway. i think it's probably for the best that the thai version went with only 'cherry magic thailand' but also. it's such a missed chance#when they could have gone with Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! Thailand!#and then presented us all with this even LOWER key thai style reinterpretation of the story (which i deeply adore)#*#cherry magic#cherry magic th

This might be my first time of doing lockpicking while in a fight, I think, and I just had Astarion say 'picking under pressure' (I think? could always have misheard) as I made him do it, and for some reason even though it's just something random, I really really love that line.
#baldur's gate 3#baldurs gate 3#bg3#Astarion#starsthoughts#also a part of me immediately goes 'under pressure' like in that one (old?) known song I don't know title or interpret of rn in response#I think queen? but meh I could be so wrong here I shouldn't write my guesses here#title is probably under pressure or pressure or sth but yeah I rarely ever remember song names or interprets#when I have such silly responses in my head I always imagine someone - or a bunch - of the crew just doing exactly that out of sudden rando

hihi! not to pressurize you into giving it away 😭😭 but I have my curiosity about how long of a fic is jadeite ginkgo exactly. ITS NOT LIKE IM READY FOR IT TO BE FINISHED ANY TIME LONGER!!! i absolutely love and adore that fic 🫶🏽 I'm just shooked by how you plan out these long fics oml
also I would love to draw something related to jg again soon if I get the chance and time !! <33
i can only give you a rough estimate honestly bc it is a known fact that I Do Not Control The Fic Length. it just happens. so uh- i'd say at the very least ten more chapters, probably more. most likely more. watch it be longer than cyanide. i don't know man (gn)
#i hope this doesn't sound like a werid response it's just i genuinelly have no clue hahaha#believe you me i'd love to!!! i think it was in a similar ask that i mentioned the power i'd have if i could actually know like#how many chapters a fic would have with certainty#because then i could coordinate chapter titles#which i wanted to do for jadeite but i think that ship's long since sailed#once the fic is over i'll tell y'all what song i wanted the chapter titles to follow#still feels kinda spoiler-y to mention it rn#maybe it isn't but idk#anyway#the use of pressurize here instead of pressure is absolutely sending me. ik it's probably a mistake i know i make those a lot#but still. hilarious mental picture thank you#anyway aaaa sorry i can't give an actually good answer. it always happens when ppl come asking for fic lenght lmao#thank you <3 <3 <3#ily <3

everyone saying ghost shannon shows up in 707 ‘ghost of a second chance’ or 709 ‘unfinished business’ but have we considered……

episode 708 titled ‘step nine’ ? we have talked before about the many parallels between bobby and eddie…. who’s to say they can’t have a character heavy episode at the same time as well?
#eddie diaz#bobby nash#shannon diaz#evan buckley#buddie#tagging as them bc we all know lol#911 spoilers#911 on abc#im also probably wrong and stupid#but its crazy how that scene could exist in literally any of these eps#based off the titles alone

The ea app has more info on the new pack. It looks like it comes with two new traits: idealist and shady. these traits will somehow play a role in how sims run their business (dreamer snd schemer aspiration) and how ot will affect their lives.
All in all this is clearly just a pottery and tattoo pack with a bit of candy making (why is this not a fledged out skill?) businesses and multipurpose lots. The maxis team clearly don't know the definition of the word hobby. Yeah hobbies can be made into businesses, but in that case they become more like a job than a hobby (in my opinion) hobbies are things you usually do on your FREE-TIME that you enjoy and like.
If they hadn't had the word hobby in the title the outrage would maybe not have been this huge. There would probably still have been ouitrage but maybe for different reasons.
#excited about multipurpose lots#and the business system#but so disappointed in the whole nonexistent 'hobby' part of this pack#like where is the sewing machine? where are is the dance hobbies? the fitness hobbies?#and yet again kids and other lifestages than adult seem to be forgotten about#this pack could have been given them new skill building bb items toys and after school activities#like the muffin oven or lemon stand#i would have loved this pack if they didn't troll us with the title#as a nordic person i like the world... but it is probably going to be empty as hell and mostly set dressing
