so i just made this for my day and plan to order a print to frame and hang and thought maybe you guys who went to day 2 might like it too as a keepsake or something? 🤷🏻

feel free to take and use, i don’t really give a fuck about being credited bc it’s really only something i did for myself and just thought i’d share and put out there~🎃

(edit: i did this in adobe fresco and its print size is 150ppi and that’ll print to approx 11in by 16in. specifically 10.933 x 15.733

another edit: michaels custom framing site will auto calc the right size and i’m gonna be doing the 14.5 x 20.9in one :3)

Sometimes Reddit actully hits the mark. Fuck I hate the whole “Iron Warriors dont like chaos meme”.

Sir, Storm of Iron is 22 years old. The whole premise of that book is that Barban Falk wants to ascend.

was no one going to tell me sam/frodo is literally canon in lotr

“Then [Sam] charged. No onslaught more fierce was ever seen in the savage world of beasts, where some desperate small creature armed with little teeth, alone, will spring upon a tower of horn and hide that stands above its fallen mate.”

- the two towers, paragraph 2 of chapter ‘the choices of master samwise’

like—we dont have to argue about the meaning of the word ‘mate’, do we? in the context of ‘world of beasts’ / ‘desperate small creature’ ? like that indicates a romantic relationship, no?

Mael is so pathetic.. I love him... He is just a soggy wet puppy and I love hate him for it..

( look at his pathetic hurt face- I wanna squeesh him RARARARA )

tho, (I dunno if i said it out loud here before. If so, I'm sorry for repeating myself(I'm not sorry)) MAEL WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU RIGHT NOW?? AND WHY THE FUCK DON'T YOU HAVE SUNSHINE AGAIN??? (I love how everyone was just so normal about the fact that Gwain has FUCKING SUNSHINE)

If it's any other reason than "merlin asked me to lend sunshine to gwain" I will personally behead this man. IF MAEL COMES BACK TO THE CURRENT PLOT AND I HEAR ONE MORE TIME HIS PATHETIC "I am not worth of sunshine anymore" I will personally make sure he goes through hell... ITS'S A 50/50 TBH Mael either learned and had actually character development (hard to believe, I know) and was being nice to lend sunshine cuz he doesn't need it as much, now that he is just waiting for his 3 brothers to come back; OR Mael is a soggy idiot again and didn't take sunshine back when Escanor died...

or he is dead. Which i highly doubt.

What could be interesting tho if he was fighting on arthur's side bc he's being manipulated. Which I also highly doubt tbh, but at least it would be really interesting, plot wise. But that would also mean more Mael having his "I am always the one suffering ÚwÙ"... and tbh I don't know if I could bare more of that pathetic shit (pls give me more of that I need my soggy puppy)

We all have to try to live long enough for Voice Over Nexus to finish their Let’s Read Homestuck series so we can see people who have only exclusively finished Homestuck through the medium of watching it.

[homestuckreplay]

Pagecount: Over 900

(page 886-902)

With 17 pages, 11/22/2009 is the longest Homestuck update by number of pages to date. It contains not one but TWO huge story developments: the ominous planet and the Peregrine Mendicant.

Ominous Planet

Just as WV told us, the ominous planet is bright purple and lies ‘beyond an impenetrable veil of darkness’ (p.704/886).

Dad is here!! I think a lot of the sudden character transitions in Homestuck actually make sense – we went from John thinking about going into his dad’s room, over to Dad himself. He barely appeared in Act 2, getting kidnapped by the imps at the start and breaking out of his trick handcuffs at the end, and now he easily bests them. Clowning is a physically demanding pursuit so Dad must be well in shape beneath the business clothes, because he launches one imp right through the wall.

We also meet an imp security guard (?) who’s wearing similar but more intricate harlequin gear.

They’re watching Dad fight the imps and somehow also watching John battle the ogres, through a pair of windows similar in design to ‘one of [Jade’s] GRANDPA'S more mysterious inventions’ (p.790), the freestanding window on Jade’s gadget table. There is apparently no end to the number of people watching John.

He looks kind of familiar. On page 833, we’re introduced to the full Midnight Crew as the sky switches from blue to bright purple. And comparing these face shapes and designs side by side, these two characters feel like they could have something to do with each other. They’re both really angry, as Spades Slick’s answer to everything is violence, and this new guy refers to the other imps, John and Dad, or both as ‘graveyard stuffers’ (p.891). It’s the only text we get in relation to the character. The narrator apparently has nothing to add and no witty comment on that thought of theirs. There’s then a quick cut where seeing the next page title ‘You are now…’ suggests that we’re about to become this guy, but we instead suddenly become-

Peregrine Mendicant

THE MAIL HAS ARRIVED. Mail, packages and deliveries are a recurring motif – there have been several important colorful packages, several envelopes containing discs, and now there is a letter to Dr. David Brinner, ATTN: SERIOUS BUSINESS. Serious Business is of course the messaging client that Dad uses to keep in touch with his troupe, and we just returned to Dad in the story, so is this finally the moment that wellPressedAttire or officeurchin1280 take their starring role in the narrative? It’s definitely a person in John’s neighborhood but not Dad himself, as we’ve seen the insides of the Egbert mailbox.

PM’s mail based tirade (p.894-896) is of course reminiscent of WV’s mayoral calling (p.686) and PM’s adoption of the hat is just like WV making their sash. So there’s something to say about these chess pieces arriving at these Skaian bunkers and immediately adopting an institution of society as critically important. Both PM and WV’s monologues read as very idealistic, imagining these overly simplistic societies that function like textbook diagrams, as though they know about these things from books similar to WV’s Human Etiquette tome and have never been part of an actual human society. Comparing the two, WV’s monologue feels more peaceful, as it’s focused on everyone getting along, mutual respect, civility and a kind leader. PM talks of soldiers, a crusade, defenders and hope among the ashes; it’s far more violent and adventurous, and feels more grounded in harsh realities even while it maybe overestimates the mail’s capability.

Which is not to criticize the mail or PM’s speech, because I think they’re both great. I agree that mail is very important, highly underappreciated, and I think it’s beautiful to explore an empty wasteland and to think ‘if there are any people left here, I need to make sure they can communicate with each other’.

Looking stylish in their new hat, PM loads their terminal and tries to greet Jade the same way WV commanded John. Jade is already covered by a lot of green static, but it appears to be snowing where she is, with flakes and drifts behind her. Which is weird in itself, because Jade is close enough to the equator that a quick search suggests it wouldn’t snow in her area no matter the time of year, especially not with the geothermal power near her house. But it gets weirder, because when John resisted a command he just felt frustrated and got a headache as he tried to ignore a weird voice in his head. When Jade resists a command, she apparently blows up the command station with lightning that she transmits through time and space. Yet another way that Jade is weirder and more powerful than the other characters.

> PM: Sacrifice yourself to save the mail.

So the One Piece brand has been doing radio broadcasts called Strawhat Space (/Mugiwara Space) where they bring in voice actors to chitchat about the series etc, most of the episodes they've featured just the main cast but they've started bringing in VAs for other characters too (one episode was Mayumi Tanaka/Luffy and Tomokazu Seki/Lucci, another was the OG three admirals etc) This week's broadcast featured Ryuuzaburo Ootomo and Yuriko Yamaguchi as Crocodile and Miss All Sunday respectively

The promotional images for Strawhat Space have been Extremely Adorable and I know I'm a simp but god, this one is so cute

Now unfortunately, while my Japanese listening comprehension is good enough to follow along your average kids anime where the VAs speak clearly and take their turns, yeah, a radio show where the VAs stumble on their words a little and speak over each other is too hard for me to keep up with (not to mention my vocab just not being suited for this kinda thing)

But, if I didn't completely misunderstand Yuriko at one point, she seemed to mention that she hoped Crocodile would remain in the position of an ally in the story (after having teamed up with Luffy during Impel Down), and like. Yuriko I love you, you so are so right
