my son lucas was dealt such a dirty hand by the whole franchise man. like he's arguably one of the more important characters lore-wise and they never did ANYTHING with him!! they just refuse to acknowledge his existence
please please PLEASE give more attention to my boy. he deserves it methinks

whoops i asked in the wrong place. would you be willing to do a request of the vargas boys in a SAW trap? thank you in advance <3
Tumblr media
Day 2 - Was it not obvious enough
#My art#Requestober#Vargas#Edgar#Scriabin#Blood#SAW#So fun fact about me: I have never seen any of the SAW movies and I have exactly zero interest in changing that lol#I'm actually a huge wimp when it comes to live action horror - I can handle just about any other kind of horror!#I love horror video games and animation and comics and stories but I just get really super uncomfortable by live action horror#Especially slashers - I top out around ''Get Out'' as far as on-screen blood and injuries and the like :(#Which sucks because as I said! I love horror! I want to watch Nightmare on Elm Street so badly but I can't! ;o;#And there's something funny about just how violent JtHM and Vargas and everything is but I'm just like#''SAW :( No I can't :('' lol#So I actually had to outsource from a friend lol she's a big slasher buff and knows I can't handle this stuff#So she briefly described a trap from SAW II and I extrapolated from there#Do I have context for you? No#Do I have blood for you? Yes >:)#Poor Edgar D: I dunno if I read correct from glancing around all the scary imagery but there was something about this trap?#About how like if they didn't put both hands they might've been able to get out? :0 I don't actually know#And anyway he has Scriabin there with him! Help!#He's no help at all lol he's just jostling the trap that'll just hurt him more!#I just like to imagine there's a semi-happy ending :') Still a lot of bloodloss tho haha#Anyway I probably wouldn't do one of these live action horror crossovers again :'D Once is more than enough for me

Okay, out of yoga and just because I was percolating on it as I was incorrectly using meditation at the end of the class, haha, but I do think the show is also saying something very specific when it has Louis unable to create art instantly turn around and seek to own, then profit off it without any respect for the artist who made it.

@tinybigfoot no i love information! which is unfortunately often in conflict with "i'm not looking up shit," like might be found on wikis easily lmao, except for when i'm having an "i'm extremely looking up shit" moment. love the drama of the scene having a known time via Newspaper b/c of the accurate contemporaneous headlines rather than being able to simply read the date; didn't know about that event! and this is me just yesterday looking at bits of paper in the backdrop of one of the Introduction comic pages like ooh can i read this (no) imagine it if had Clues (don't think it would & doesn't seem to anyways)
another zany fact to remember that yeah according to those character profiles mitzi Would Have It Be Believed she's at all younger than mordecai, ft. the implication that since yeah he was born in '99 & mitzi Was born in the nineteenth century too, she's either the same age or slightly older. let's go Circa Thirty Characters....which is mostly just mitzi who'd deny as much & mordecai having a couple years to go, fingers crossed. then we leap over to people born in the '80s lol

@bunniesandbeheadings I might misunderstand the text you linked. How could Mary call Edward a bastard? KoA was dead by then, and of course widowers can remarry. Calling Jane a legitimate Queen in no way would take away KoA’s status as Queen?
all of hviii's marriages after catherine of aragon were not recognised by the catholic church/pope. when he needed dispensations for these marriages, like for affinity (his marriage to jane was one of them), they were granted by the anglican church, whose authority the pope and other catholic monarchies of christendom did not recognise (the last real 'papal' henrician appointment, irony of ironies, was thomas cranmer's). there was also the matter of all marriages taking place when the realm was in schism, thus "all other women of henry concubines and not wives". prince edward was (legitimate) heir as reified by parliament; both retroactively from the succession act of 1536 and in name by the one of 1543.
foreign dignitaries of course, when they visited, would honour whoever henry's wife was as queen to maintain good relations and as matter of diplomacy (this wasn't, of course, done by the imperial until the last weeks of AB's time as queen, but otherwise, she was, even if 'frostily' by the french as in 1534). but they were often under instruction to treat this status as transient, as lauren mackay has summarized in her biography of chapuys, for example, charles v was rather mercenary in his attitude towards jane seymour, continually referring to her as henry's 'mistress' well into their marriage in his own instructions to chapuys:
"It appears Charles [V] was at times rather ruthless in regards to Jane, despite the fact that her being in power benefitted Mary. Charles referred to her in several dispatches as Henry's mistress rather than queen [...]" Inside the Tudor Court, Lauren Mackay
#bunniesandbeheadings#replies#there's like the question of why mary did not attempt to overthrow edward while he was king if she didn't believe his reign was legitimate#which is an interesting one...#but 1) her biographers really discount how much of a dissembler she was#2) loades theorized that she actually did buy into the henrician supremacy and her own illegitimacy and simply had a turnaround once#edward died believing that was god's sign she was the rightful heir thus legitimate...which i find an oversimplistic explanation. to say#the least...#i think psychologically in the last years of the edwardian regime she had something of a redeux of the AB years?#this belief england was going to fall into perdition due to 'evil councilors' but she couldn't do anything to reverse it#which is why there's an escape attempt not just an escape plan as in the former but she also decides against this in the last hour#so yes. what was her plan? or hope? it might've been that edward vi would be excommunicated as he reached his majority#and that charles v took up the call to invade and england became one of his dominions#and she would be set up as regent as he set up his other female relatives as regent in his absence#idk if i'd say jane being in power benefitted mary. all the 'benefits' she received came from her swearing to oaths she'd been pressurized#to swear to for the past two years...?#anyway this was illuminating and instructive. to me. it best explains imo why she took such a defiant attitude towards edward. she wouldn't#have seen it as defiant if she didn't believe in his authority in the first place

Do you think Near has ever wanted to turn back the time? Like he had something he regretted and wanted to change it?
I was listening to the song “The scientist” - Coldplay and I kept wondering, especially for someone as practical as he is 🤔
Ooh this is a really interesting question, thank you!! Personally I’m inclined to go with no, because I don’t think he’s really the type to have regrets. Things absolutely can and do go wrong in his life (case in point, him becoming too complacent towards the end of the Kira case which necessitated the situation that got Mello killed), but I couldn’t see him ever wishing to go back and change outcomes that have already happened. I think he’d see it as a waste of his time to dwell on past mistakes, so when things go wrong, he will deal with the consequences and move on.

perhaps i'd be more articulate the next time i'll write this down, but just know this - my portrayal of neville will always love hermione quite whole-heartedly. i wish i have the brain capacity to describe just how much hermione means to neville, but let's just say it encapsulates beyond even a romantic notion; it's everything. loving, respecting, being around hermione simply to enjoy her company is purely a selfless act that brings immense satisfaction and enjoyment for him. again, his actions [for any hermione portrayals] may came out incredibly romantic, although please be forewarned that this is in no way of me pushing for a ship — for i, too, much rather build a dynamic than forcing one — but simply the way i've interpreted his mannerisms when it came to the witch. i hope this may clear some things up!

Just watched Chainsaw Man, it was pretty good. Feels very Written By Men but 🤷🏻‍♀️🙄
I liked how efficient the characterization was! Like within one or two scenes of knowing a character, you'd have a pretty good grasp on what their deal was. The whole "we kill devils except for when we use their powers ourselves except for when we just straight up become them" thing is definitely intriguing! Obviously lots of room to explore there. I have questions about them representing different fears/scary things, mainly about what happens when they get killed?
It was funny how Hayakawa was like, "🙄OBVIOUSLY we kill every fiend, they're just the same as other devils, they're not like people at all, are you stupid?" only for there to be like five fiends on his personal team. And, "we don't talk to or make friends w devils, we ONLY violently murder them," only for everyone he knows, including himself, to have active business deals with them. Like, I get that we're doing the whole irony thing, here, but it just seems like that worldview would be a little difficult to maintain. Also the fact that he got mad at Denji for killing the guy TOO efficiently?? Again, I get that we are establishing the character and the world, but it was a little baffling imo. But I guess he also did jump Denji in an alley following their very first conversation for literally no reason.
(I tried really hard not to find it off-putting that Denji was groomed/sexually harassed/assaulted by almost every woman he worked with, because I'm pretty sure that wasn't the context intended by the story 😬)
Anyway, I get the "morally dubious gov agency that uses people, including children, like pawns as a means to their greater good-motivated ends" thing they're doing. I can dig it.
It was a little wild in the season finale when they were like "okay Division 4 is going to go in the building now", showed the four characters we've become acquainted with entering the building, and then were like, "okay here are the members of the Division", and started introducing four completely different characters. Like, okay, yeah, surprise reveal or whatever, but at least a hint that there was even something to reveal would've been nice? (I remember the comment at the dinner party, but that didn't register at all) I guess I also just don't get what is even narratively gained from that surprise. Like, "there are several other members of this group, who we haven't met yet", doesn't seem like that weighty of a reveal, or to big of a hint to drop. Maybe I just didn't follow something, though. I'm not great with fast-paced stuff even when it's in my native language, so 🤷🏻‍♀️😅
Normally stories like this bother me by throwing around trauma, violence, and murder so lightly, but I feel like this one does a really good job of being like, "these people are Fucked Up, their world does not look like ours and they do not function the way we do." And, like, everything annoying or frustrating about the story or characters is justified. That redhead is on a different level though lol.
I liked Power just as much as I thought I would! 😊 The duo she and Denji have become by the end of the season is really sweet. I was excepting to see Pochita much more than I actually did. Visually, I find a lot of the animation really cool, including the ending sequences. It feels like the artists really like the color orange/amber, which, as an Orange Appreciator, I can appreciate. I think the "suits with sneakers" look that everyone has going on is pretty cute, though it does get a little boring.
Honestly, I think my favorite arc was the hotel level 8 one? idk why but it was very interesting, and gratifying to see Denji get such a definitive win.

While failure rates are lower in sub-i7/i9 SKUs, they are not entirely absent. Some Core i5 SKUs *are* affected. Specifically, anything with the K suffix. If your CPU's name starts in a 13 or 14 and ends in a K, and you've been having stability issues lately (random crashes and whatnot), you're eligible for a warranty claim. Regardless of whether that happens though, your warranty *is* extended by two years, and this applies to both proccessor-in-box (PIB) products, which can be warrantied directly from Intel, and to tray processors found in prebuilt PCs, which can be warrantied directly from the manufacturer of your prebuilt PC.
Also, Intel has not yet released the patch to fix this. They're currently validating it internally (i.e ensuring it won't fuck everything up even worse) and will be releasing it to motherboard manufacturers shortly, who should be integrating it into a new BIOS update. The patch is slated for release to manufacturers by mid-August, so we can likely expect BIOS updates a week or two after that, start of September at the latest.
Do you know if the thing about Intel 13 and 14th gen CPUs dying is true?
Yeah there's a major flaw in some very high-end 13th and 14th gen processors. If you just got an off-the shelf computer (not a gaming computer, not a high end workstation) you're probably fine. If you got a high-end processor but are not having issues with this, Intel has released a patch. If you ARE having problems, Intel extended the warranty of those processors and you should replace the processor.
It is a big deal, however it is a big deal that impacts a small but disproportionately loud subset of computer users, so if your computer cost less than a thousand dollars basically you're cool, this isn't going to be an issue for you.

I think more fics should include lil bits of southern accent coming from characters from the south.
Will, Leo, Hazel and Annabeth all start talking to eachother and suddenly you're hearing four different southern accents coming out
I mean already talked about the big three boys and them all having a partner from the south. But add Frank in there who's not even from the US and they all just starring like :0
Will and Leo with different Texas accents,Leo's probably with the added hispanic accent mixed in
Annabeth' Virginia accent hardly noticed cause she left there when she was pretty young, only to come out with certain words
Hazel's having a New Orleans accent is *slept* on y'all.
Which, also means on the Argo II anytime they were discussing and accents might've go thicker as they spoke faster you had the other four just starring like "mhm-yep-"
But like you also had a new yorker and a Canadian there as well as a guy that was raised by wolves so- accents must've been interesting on that ship XD
(Also-southern Lee Fletcher hc, mainly cause I'm shocked none of the children of Apollo we have a birth place for so far are from around Nashville. Come on, it's literally Music City. )

You mentioned that Mary, during her reign, did not consider her father's later marriages valid. Could it be because they were not under the Catholic faith? At least that's what I understood, correct me if I'm wrong
More specifically, none of these marriages (save his to Anne Boleyn's, ironically enough...although that was a conditional papal dispensation to be used in the specific circumstances of either the annulment of his first marriage granted by the papacy, or, by implication, the death of Catherine of Aragon) had the required papal dispensations (HVIII was related in some degree to all of them, specifically through Edward I at the least). HVIII and COA had the papal dispensation that was upheld explicitly by a later Pope and implicitly by the rest, Mary I and Philip II had the needed papal dispensation to wed.
