probably a lot of people are talking about it already, but:
even though i liked the end of Viktor's plotline a lot since it gave a chance to adress those underlying beliefs that were always driving him, all the glorious evolution stuff happened only because the arcane influenced his will so it feels pretty shallow?
sure, he always had those biases and they were just turned up to 11, but it'd have been more impactful to explore how those biases would've manifested through decisions he would've realistically made
#arcane spoilers#viktor arcane#arcane#my posts#arcane meta#unless i'm wrong somewhere#there's also that it being against his will was kind of the point#since jayce chose that for him to have a chance to save him#but it still doesn't tie in in a satisfying way

Not sure if there's anything official- based only on a vaguely similar shape and location and seemingly supported by the map pictures released by Dreamworks TV recently, would Yaz's island be Frank Island in Yellowstone National Park? Only for JWE2 building reference purposes 😁
It's possible it was used for some visual inspiration, but I think the EXACT location in Wyoming was probably meant to be a little vague, as a fictional location.
#jurassic world chaos theory#I didn't even know what part of Wyoming it was supposed to be exactly until DW released those maps#the only locations I knew for sure were Darius's cabin in the Lake Tahoe area#Sammy's ranch in the Texas hill country area#Brooklynn's apartment was originally supposed to be near Denver I think or at least at one point I was told Denver#because I actually picked the location of the drop off point in Oklahoma on the map and I tried to calculate a spot they could reach in tim#and then the last location I knew vaguely was the port somewhere off the coast of Louisiana haha#jurassic world#chaos theory#jwct#ask#it's usually better not to get too specific with fictional locations unless they're like... landmarks that everyone knows#also as a Texan I can't believe Sammy allowed Ben to take the I 10 all the way down the wrong way to San Antonio#And THEN the I-35 through Dallas and Norman on the way to Colorado#not only is that the long way#but it's also a truly AWFUL drive during rush traffic LOL#the correct route would have been to take highway 83 out of Junction and then make your way up to Amarillo and onward#Anyway this is just to say whoever put together the DW maps probably just used major interstates to loosely locate things#i'm not convinced they're 100% accurate

genuine question, do you like maths?? i have a vague feeling i saw your post of tags or something that said something about it but i cannot figure out if it was in fact you or if it was even positive ahahah
Yeah that was me! I don't go looking for math problems, but when I happen to do them, I tend to enjoy it. Wasn't always this way — elementary school math was about speed and memorization and I hated that — but I had a really good teacher in upper secondary school, and it became about creative problem solving. It feels the same as writing a poem in meter or managing to untangle a really bad knot in a ball of yarn.
#i can't do math in my head or memorize formulas#and i'm not precise‚ which is bad for questions that are only numbers. like. 5+6=? type of stuff#because if all you need to is write the final answer‚ then if that answer is wrong‚ youve failed. don't get the points for the exam question#but! upper secondary school math! my beloved! (specifically lyhyt matikka‚ idk what pitkä is like)#there's a book that has all the formulas in it and you can use it and look them up even during exams. no memorization#it doesn't explain *how* the formulas are used but still#and there was more time than there ever was in my previous schools. and finishing fast did not mean you were better. i could take my time#and there were so many... worded questions? like instead of pure numbers they present the problem to you in words. phrases. prose#here is a situation. solve it#and you get to choose HOW to solve it#sometimes i could not remember how a formula worked‚ or hadn't quite figured out a recently taught technique yet#and i just. figured out a different way to solve the problem#can't remember the answer to 5x8? let's count 5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5 instead#38/7? lets draw 38 little balls in the margin and separate them into groups of 7 and see how many there are and how many strays get left out#like that but applied to lots of stuff#and it was enougj! it was fine! it was a valid way to solve it! i got the right answer!#unless i messed something up! a + turned into a - by accident somewhere in the middle of the equation#but! part of this level of math was that it was encouraged to write our whole thought process down#and i‚ unable to do it off the paper anyway#i wrote down ALL OF IT#and the teacher saw where i went wrong and that it was little precision things but that i had the techniques down and#i still got most of the points for those questions instead of losing everything because of an incorrect number at the end#these differences have meant everything#math is puzzles. puzzles can be fun#some of my first memories of math class are of me sobbing under my desk#i cried a few tears in all my matriculation exams too‚ even for my favourite subjects. but not math#one of the most important questions was a geometry one. i shine in that area#i grinned doing it

Guys I feel like I am trying to put together a puzzle out of pieces from one million different puzzles where no one full puzzle is present. I was looking at This Foul Murder today and I came across the part where Marshall describes Benedikt's eyes as being "brown-grey" and "ambiguous dark". I was already familiar with this because I am a frequent peruser of Benedikt's fandom wiki page. But I always just assumed it was mistaken on the wiki page, because I was 10000% sure I had read in the books somewhere else that his eyes are light colored/blue.
I absolutely SCOURED TVD for any mention of Benedikt to try to find an answer and I came up with nothing. Did I imagine this?? Have I created an alternate timeline where Benedikt underwent a change of eye color akin to Thalia Grace of the Riordanverse??
#part of me thinks i may have just heard blond and assumed blue eyes#because with alisa her eyes are specifically described to be brown#but in my research I've discovered that benedikt's eye color is actually not mentioned at all (i'm pretty sure)#UNTIL that moment in lvc#like not at all in tvd (to my knowledge) and I'm pretty sure not in ove either#unless I've missed something#someone who is more knowledgeable than i please provide assistance#also how should i draw him now?? like I've grown quite attached to my design for him#and eye color can really change how a person looks#but like. i don't want to be drawing him wrong if it's secretly bothering people#but I'm SURE i got the image of him with blue eyes from somewhere#i just don't know from where#update in real time i just checked and the art on his wiki page distinctly has light eyes#but is that official or not?????#anyway real tags because i need the public's opinion#these violent delights#our violent ends#foul lady fortune#last violent call#foul heart huntsman#secret shanghai#chloe gong#benedikt montagov#marshall seo#benmars

Can Nintendo please make some of the outfits you can buy for your Mii in Pikmin Bloom real?
Like, look at this one:
This is so adorable! I want it so bad!! Look at all those silly guys!! It's so colourful!!
Or look at those:
You can't tell me I'm the only one who'd like to wear a hat in the style of your favorite pikmin!
Please Nintendo, I'd give you so much money 🥺🥺🥺
#dragon's stupid thoughts#pikmin#pikmin bloom#unless I'm completely wrong and they DO ACTUALLY sell them somewhere#please tell me if they do#i hate it when stuff is only digital#I'm crying I want it so desperately much

Okay I know it's not guaranteed by any means, and it's common enough for reds to survive a good while after turning red, but wouldn't it be funny if Martyn were to also be the first out of the game in Secret Life? The canary curse broken by the previous winner because the Watchers are just that done with Martyn's shit by now or whatever
#also like. correct me if i'm wrong but i don't think anyone has so far managed to get a full like#first to yellow first to red and first out -series#like jimmy's the first out every time but i don't think he's ever been the first to lose each of his lives#so it'd be sorta funny from that perspective too to see martyn manage the full set y'know?#and again. i recognize it's not necessarily gonna happen. but i don't think it's that unlikely either#both from what i've observed of martyn's episodes and from what i think i've seen him say himself#i think the no heart regeneration thing is fucking him over in this one because his typical style of play is so reckless#like if you think back. in other games plenty of times he's survived shit with just a few hearts and been able to hide somewhere to heal#now those hearts are just gone until he can complete his task/unless someone gifts him (and even then they might not cover all his lost one#so like it's not guaranteed. maybe martin will now learn to be cautious because he has enough to lose#but then again it is possible that he just doesn't and has bad enough luck that he's out first#martyn inthelittlewood#trafficblr#secret life

I can't believe the fandom built a whole personality around König and Horangi just for me to go look at the source and find out their "backstory" is literally just 50 words each and a dream...y'all are something else...
#cod mw2#unless I'm wrong and theres hidden lore somewhere else#please prove me wrong and theres actually a whole side quest with them#konig mw2#könig cod#horangi mw2

can things STOP HAPPENING TODAY
#before the museum even opened. ems showed up. apparently they got a call about an emergency#and all the information they had was the adress so. somewhere in this BIG ASS MUSEUM#ten minutes later they call us over the radio and say the person who called ems had the wrong address#half an hour later there's a leak in one of the back galleries actively dripping water#THEN the fuckinG motion sensor next to a huge piece of art by the stairs near the gallery I'm in breaks#so every. fucking. time. someone passes by it#it goes off#it's not supposed to unless someone gets close enough to touch#oh my GOD it's ANNOYING

#lasso the sun.#i'm fckin getting SOMEWHERE IG????#i like this face shape and i like this eye shape#squarish features and squint-y-ish eyes#won't be able to tell what's going wrong w it unless i try and do a render pass#potentially the ear is sitting a little low#at the moment i struggle to do expressions - there's a stretching and smooshing that i'm neglecting for structure and i'm not sure how to#reconcile

one of my professors had a saying, 'what do we do when we don't know what to do?' [a crowd of undergrads cheers] 'Research!'
it was partly practical to help us get used to easily use the various research databases and stuff, learn how to find papers, keep track of citations, etc
also generally for office hours, if we came to her, she asked that we have like one paper or something that we had found trying to answer the question ourselves [easier to figure out what we know then and how to help, but again to get us used to casually using our research tools and build our citations]
-
and just in a general scientific sense, if you don't know what the right answer is, it's not like class where someone knows and you have to guess and be wrong. a bad grade in science is just 'not getting funding'.
you are building new information, part of that is by definition making educated guesses and seeing where they fail. well-cited guesses ideally, but hypothetically speaking (literally) you also prepare to be incorrect about your guess.
#original post#i think i remember a project i did for that class and i might actually have it on a stick somewhere#i wrote a pseudohistorical diary of [what if gregor mendel had modern genetic research technology while doing his thing with the peas]#love you professor R you were a G#i've worked for a handful of research facilities now some very well run and some very poorly#some PIs could admit they were wrong and others couldn't#i'm a little anxious that somehow someone could put together the dots and figure out my CV now but#thats really unlikely unless we were already coworkers#wizard shit#this post was revealed to me from my queue

one of my friends and i were talking about life and where we would be in a few years and it made me a lil bit sad
#we were driving somewhere and i said something about how she was going to move away one day#(she doesn't wanna live in texas forever esp cause she's lived here most of her life)#and we talked about how one day we'd both probably just be fond memories to each other#like just people to look back on when thinking about your early 20s or whatever#SHE said this not me. i think it's so fucking morbid#but like she's not wrong and i keep thinking about it#how everyone you ever love will leave u some day?? isn't that just so absolutely fucked#but like. we're probably gonna part ways someday#and then we'll just start talking less and less and less and one day not at all#cause that's how life is isn't it#someone can mean the absolute WORLD to you one day#and a few years later you might not even think about them unless something prompts it#and i DO Try to talk to my besties as often as i can#but maybe i should get on real social media or something idk#it's literally impossible to talk to every single person who has meant something to you on a regular basis#and i think that's what social media is for??? idkkkkk#i'm being melancholy and CRINGE today ig#idk it's weird how u can go from 'we're going to be at each other's weddings' to 'eh we probably won't see each other much if ever#in another five years'#she's said both of those things. one of them is more realistic than the other.#delete later#you just gotta leave before u get left ig#sorry for quoting taylor swift

oh ho ho. found a FAQ on weapon forging and still kinda unsure of it, making this thing was not a first try attempt and i could swear i did the recipe, but whatever we’ll figure it out eventually. This is still a game changer, so many enemies in this game are flying or undead. And I have the Tempest Ring for more 200% damage to flying ones, i wonder how absurd it is gonna be
#hitting the beholders for like. 400+ damage now. that's twice as many i do on anything else#and even the base damage is slightly better than my other knife#shining soul 2#claire plays shining soul 2#i wonder if money really doesn't influence anything. feels off to me#in my first failed attempt i gave the guy more money? so idk#unless i picked the wrong grade metal by accident#man the grades are actually very interesting bt i wish it was hinted somewhere as usual lmao#OH. LMAO. never mind i'm doing 400+ because the tempest ring is on already. i forgot#listen forget about multiple weapon slots this game needed a way to swap quickly between rings because they're the best#i got a burning ring as random drop with 40 fire resistance and it kicks ass#i'm living to see what other cool stuff is in the game despite not liking random drops

#yeah so I'm absolutely having a breakdown#which sucks because ive been doing alright for awhile#and it makes sense tbh#not to invalidate myself#so many things that are outside of my control have gone wrong recently#someone tried to steal my car again and I'm fixing it myself because I can't afford to bring it somewhere#and the job that would change my life keeps ghosting me#and I need to let my landlord know about renewing my lease yesterday (literally yesterday i was supposed to) but im waiting on this job#and money is tight#and my insurance is stalling on covering my migraine meds#to get a 3 day supply is >100$ through the lowest discount card#and to get a full month supply costs more than my rent at its cheapest#so I've been mostly in pain and lowkey confused as the drug works its way out of my system#and I'm on my period which destabilized because i had to come off my birth control for the first time in years (due to the migraines)#I watched a car flip the other night#and if that weren't enough I can't stop remembering the last time i saw a car flip and two people died on impact#and my dad was dragging bodies out of the car on fire#...we had been driving to the ER because I had tried to kill myself again#all I could think was that it should have been me#and I slept with a guy at work which was fine neither of us wanted it to be a thing#but now he's seeing this new girl that works with us and they're making my life hell about it#and I just don't have a single friend or anyone I feel is there for me#I never get to have that and I don't know why#literally no one gives a shit I could say I'm dying ij this room and it still wouldn't be as important as some guy so and so is pining after#I don't matter unless im useful#I feel like I'm screaming and no one can hear me#fuck this man we were doing so good there for a bit#Genuinely afraid im reaching a breaking point I'll never recover from

These are the only things You need to know about manifestation :
Manifestation is not a process. You aren't trying to manifest anything. You are just accepting the fact that it's already yours.
Don't get stuck in the trying/learning phase, you don't need it to make sense. You don't need to know how/when/what. Just know that it's already done.
You make the rules in your reality. Stop asking if you can manifest this/that or why some coach was saying this and the other coach said the opposite. Don't accept what they say as true in your reality. What's the point of being the operant power in your own reality if you're just gonna go behind the latest technique/ fad some random person on the internet tells you to do.
The simplest way is the real way. Accept it as true in your reality. That's all there is to it. If you wanna affirm and persist do that, If you wanna do saturation do that, If you wanna listen to subs do that. There is no right or wrong way. Just accept the fact that it is already done.
To answer the question of how can I assume something to be true when it clearly isn't - How come you always assume the worst when it comes to stuff you want? Don't you assume how you're gonna be late somewhere before it even happens? Don't you assume that something's gonna go wrong before it even happened? Don't you overthink all sorts of shit without once knowing what's actually happening behind the scenes? If you can do all this shit with no proof whatsoever, you can assume what you want is true - if you really want it. I said what I said.
Don't be afraid to claim it as true. You aren't being delusional, You aren't aiming too high, No it's not that farfetched, It's okay to want what you want, It isn't impossible (unless you assume it is). Stop letting fear take over your power. If you can desire it you can have it.
More often than not people stumble upon manifestation because they are desperately trying to manifest something. Like their SP, or money or the job or appearance change or whatever it might be. Most people fail at manifesting what they want the most. In my personal opinion, it's because you're so busy "TRYING" to manifest it and just stuck in the process and have just too much resistance. You guys are never like - I have it, but instead like - I'm trying to manifest it. I'm manifesting this and that.
Change that. You are not gonna be stuck in that anymore. You are gonna decide now and here that it is already done. You have it. It is yours. NOT TOMORROW, NOT TWO WEEKS FROM TODAY, BUT NOW.
You have it now. If you can accept this, nothing can stop you from having what you want.

#idk man maybe i'm on the wrong side of the rpc or something#but there's so many posts floating across my dash on a constant basis with 0 notes#hardly anyone comments on anything unless it benefits them anymore#and at least on /my side/ there's rarely supportive anons for no reason#there's little to no fun being had at all anymore#so much serious 'don't even look at my blog unless you do this this this and shit'#i am afraid to reblog things from my own mutuals without getting blocked lmao#the rpc is just a bunch of eggshells and i'm tiptoeing my way around trying to find another solid piece to stand on for awhile#and maybe i'm just getting too old for it or something#but like where else is my outlet supposed to be when it's been this for 10 years :c#idk i'm just rambling and sad and mad and work has me stressed life has me stressed and i am just tired ://#tbd#negativity //#i guess#sorry if you read tags#i'll be somewhere

WHyyyyy does it take me 500 years to finish digital art
#Kassandra talks like someone's listening#I think the problem is Krita. The free transform tool does NOTHING that I want it to.#Unless I'm doing it wrong and there's a better free transform tool hidden somewhere that can actually do perspective
