okay maybe going back to school is a good idea after all. waking up at 7am feels REALLY different from waking up at 2pm (like i did almost all summer). its 3pm right now and i feel like ive already done so much and then i get reminded that i got out of bed at this exact time yesterday

im actually kind of surprised how at peace i am with this unofficial but inevitable end of dragon age. obviously im sad. for the people who just lost their jobs with seemingly very little notice, and also just a general sense of sadness for how capitalism is so relentlessly dedicated to crushing every last shred of human creativity and passion under its bloody boot. but personally, i actually think dragon age served its purpose in my life, and i'm not sure how much more i could have continued to get out of it. outside of providing satisfying closure on a story i waited 10 years for, which was a necessity, in order to actually carry on and reignite the passion i had for the franchise and reincarnate it into something that could last another decade in my mind palace... da4 would have had to have done something really groundbreaking for it to resonate with me at 26 the way it did with me at 16. even if i really enjoyed veilguard and thought it was great, i am not sure it would have carried over into the next phase of my life unless it was really special. think it could have easily been possible, for example i think if they went back to the full da2 greek tragedy vibe that would have absolutely gagged me and had me by the balls, but i also didn't necessarily ever expect that. i would have loved to see it, but i was never counting on it, and as i waited for the game to download on the morning of the 31st, even then it felt a long cycle finally coming to an end, rather than the exciting beginning of something new. what excited me was finally getting closure and catharsis, not starting a new cycle. loving dragon age primarily from ages 16-22 was genuinely so profound, the stories were so meaningful to me as a young adult and carried me through so much. it was exactly what i needed when i needed it, and though these games got me to this destination of who i am 10 years later... i'm honestly not sure they could have carried me any further. veilguard was the last leg of a very long trip. a cigarette-smelling, reckless-driving, overpriced Uber ride following a wonderful life-changing vacation and a 10 year long turbulence-heavy flight, but it got me where i needed to go in one piece. it could have been a much more pleasant ride, of course, but i made it. and now i have to find new destinations to travel to

i read a take about the witcher online that i disagree with

one thing i really appreciate about jinshi's character is how he has NEVER once actually had any intention of succeeding the throne. every time the idea is brought up he immediately detests it. so hes giving maomao as much as he possibly can, even though maomao has many qualms about it due to their difference in social status, but jinshi DOESNT CARE because hes NEVER cared about or wanted the status of crown prince! its been nothing but a burden to him! from his perspective the ONLY thing keeping the two of them apart are outside influences. he has no doubt within himself-- hes horribly down bad, in fact. but unfortunately his stupid JOB is getting in the way of him skipping off into the sunset with his favourite little cat

andrzej sapkowski in the witcher presents his reader with many curious and refreshing takes on the fantasy genre, such as "what if dragons were good" and "what if elves were incels"

If they’ve adapted out the (quite minor!!) lesbian relationship I’m gonna riot.

very few 'parenting' things frustrate me more than parents who give their screaming kids an ipad, but I think "emotionally neglectful for 20 years and then wondering why their kid isn't thriving/adjusting to adulthood well, so they try to make up for it by being an overbearing helicopter parent" might take the cake.

My brother joined my game of bg3 and he tried to talked to Astarion and he just said. I'm not here for chit-chat and I'm like ah he's jealous. He doesn't like my brother. Then my brother kept trying to talk to him and he's like no.
