this is the iconic dinosaur horror jurassic park wishes it was
#so there's this person on twitter who is like an infamous drama starter and got a whole forum shut down once#and they wrote this (different) book that's one of the greatest so bad it's good things i've ever read#a few great things that happen in that:#characters get in a car crash and flee on foot. later it's casually mentioned one character had both her legs amputated 'due to fractures'#the character pretending to be american by wearing maga hats that have spy gear built into them#the spy gear in question is an alarm that blares if someone lies in their vicinity#'stuff protocol ' said the queen. 'i'm getting hammered tonight'#the chapter where the prime minister is trying to watch the news so she keeps wandering into bars and tv shops and getting kicked out#the dragon that's casually described as 'about the size of 1000 elephants'#the dragon that's a 'dog dragon hybrid with a chihuahua body and a giant dragon head'#the dragon that's owner punched it in the face and only lets people approach if they 'do the iconic royal wave'#the characters being described as 'the short one' 'the guy with the beard' etc#but there being a lengthy detailed description of the characters in harry potter#'apparently a dragon had burnt essex to cinders in a matter of minutes'#anyways i found out they also wrote (a political parody of indiana jones???) for this book of kids short stories years ago#and you know. we needed to know#so it took me like 4 months to track this precious lost media down#which was very worth it because it turns out it's full of many other iconic gems like CELLAR HELL by Elizabeth Elgie (12)

Not to be all 'back in my day' but I think the problem with TV today is that shows don't get 100-200 episodes anymore.
#stargate#sg1#stargate sg1#stargate atlantis#sga#like idk i don't want to be able to watch an entire show in a weekend#unless it's still ongoing you know?#like i cannot think of a show in the last 10-15 years that has over 100 episodes#that's not a medical drama#those seem to be the only ones#or anime lol#i just really miss good long tv shows with filler episodes#it was the best

I know the decision to have Julian's parents have him augmented was made on the fly but imo its pretty obvious from early on that Julian has Family Issues because he avoids talking about his family like the plague and I think they should've incorporated this into the Julian and Sisko dynamic right from early on because I think it would've made for some really compelling stories and moments and could've set up a REALLY interesting Julian and Jake dynamic which they kinda started to do but never fully went for
#star trek: ds9#julian bashir#benjamin sisko#jake sisko#s1 Julian being so young and eager to prove himself and latching onto Sisko as this mentor figure to look up to#seeing Sisko with Jake and low-key seeking that fatherly figure connection which he won't even let himself think about#Sisko seeing this young brilliant doctor who's got all the makings to be something great and he's just GOTTA help him along#I think he would also catch on pretty quick that Julian's got Parental Issues#he tries to ask one day all casual like 'tell me about yourself :)' and Julian talks about nothing but Starfleet and med school#any attempts to ask about his family are met with awkward brief answers and redirections#and then theres the way Julian's eyes light up the first time Sisko invites him to watch a baseball game#like he Knows. he's a dad he Knows somethings up#but he doesnt pry#I also think it makes their dynamic more tragic towards the end of the series#where we have Sisko asking Julian to compromise his morals again and again#Julian's trust and respect for him gradually deteriorating#and then at the end of course Sisko is gone and they have no idea when he'll be back#which I think Julian would have a lot of complicated feelings about#but of course theres also Jake#I imagine they'd get closer#very brotherly dynamic#you know that scene in TNG where Wesley goes to Riker for girl advice and Riker and Guinan start flirting?#absolutely happens but with Jake asking Julian for girl advice and Julian wooing a girl at Quark's and Jake absolutely loses the plot#makes the events of ...Nor the Battle to the Strong more intense as well I think#also I like to think there'd be an episode where the B plot is Jake gets mad at Sisko and impulsively decides to move out#ends up at Julian's because he did not think this through#Julian is now very much caught in the middle of this family drama and he Fucking Hates It#also him and Jake are NOT compatible roommates but he's trying so so hard to be nice#eventually they have a talk and Julian cryptically hints at his own home life and tells Jake he's lucky he has a dad who cares so much#them being closer would work into what Alone Together sets up for them

Debating making a short comic based on this post I made but here’s a wip panel in case it never sees the light of day haha
Honestly this was mainly just an excuse to draw little Leo in his honk shoo mimimi pajamas
#the words wouldn’t be based on any particular telenovela it would just be something I made up#I did consider some stuff from maría la del barrio but decided against it#full disclosure I only know enough Spanish to get around so that’s the main reason I’m on the fence about this comic#May end up doing an English line instead and have them watching a soap opera just so I couldn’t mess it up#even though it would only be like one sentence I would hate to mess it up or offend anyone#though tbh while I think Leo would have watched both (because of the DRAMA) I think telenovelas just fit more here#feel free to let me know esp those of you who grew up watching them

♪ Dirty Little Secret - The All-American Rejects
Do you remember when I said a while ago that a playlist with 6 songs didn’t sit well with me, so I had a way to add more? This is that way. I’ve put too much though into this universe where every kiss is Noco, so I’m making sketch pages for the comics respective episode, starting with Greeces Pieces!
No one even kisses in this episode, but the reveal plot point was WAY too important and WAY too interesting to ignore. The reveal comic will come eventually, but for now here’s the rest of the episode!!
For funsies here’s my notes about this portion, directly copy pasted from my notes app:
* Noah death glares Tyler, threatening him into silence. Alejandro notices.
* When Heather and Alejandro bicker before landing, Noah shoots Cody a look, saying “they’re crazy” with his eyes. Cody giggles back at him. Sierra notices.
* She questions him about it, not knowing Noah and Cody were friends. Cody awkwardly reaffirms yeah they’re just friends!! Sierra accepts this answer despite Cody stumbling through it. Oopsies I ended up changing this one. I’ll explain why later.
* Noah competes in the one on one turned 3v3 duel, Owen using him as a weapon. Well intentioned, of course. They end up winning, and they share the two medals Owen won in the original.
* Noah ends up flying across the arena, landing on Cody by accident. They pause for two seconds maximum, and stutter and stumble standing up. Alejandro notices and starts putting the pieces together of what might of happened.
* (By the end of the episode he’s positive he knows, so he’s not really shocked when Tyler actually says it.)
* The song of the episode is sung by Courtney and Duncan, about what don’t ask me. Courtney wins that challenge for the Amazons.
* Heather and Alejandro still compete in the hurdles challenge and Heather still wins, leading to the tiebreaker.
If anything is confusing or unclear, please feel free to ask about it! You wanna ask me about it soooo bad actually
#the link on the song is for the aforementioned playlist!#ONLY posting this now because of the brainrot and because the prior context before the actual comic I think would be a nice thing to provide#do you know how many times I watched this episode to make this and draft the real comic?? too many#but I love this episode so it’s ok#I’ve spoken enough so I’ll leave it at this: I’m SO exited to draw the reveal you have no idea#total drama#Starry makes art#world tour but noco are the only ones kissing#total drama world tour#total drama noah#td noah#total drama cody#td cody#cody anderson#noco#total drama noco#td noco#total drama tyler#td tyler#total drama alejandro#td alejandro#total drama sierra#td sierra#total drama owen#td owen#total drama duncan#td duncan#total drama courtney#also do not mention the stains on the Sierra Cody drawings. there’s marker on the other side of that page#‘I’ll keep you my dirty little secret/don’t tell anyone or you’ll be just another regret’ and then…

I hope Mikoto kills someone on-screen in his trial 3 MV. I don't mean shots of baseball swings and quick cut-aways, I hope he actually beats someone's brains out completely on-screen so that the fandom can finally accept that he Absolutely Did That Shit
#I'm saying this but if it does happen watch y'all still do backflips to try and say that john actually did it#it's been confirmed since mikoto's first voice drama that john is not a prisoner#mikoto is the prisoner. mikoto is the one that Did That Shit#I don't understand why this is a conversation we repeat every time we get info on his crime lmao#{ ⚖️ after knowing all I wonder. can you really forgive them? 👁️}#milgram#milgram project#mikoto kayano#kayano mikoto#milgram mikoto

Catching up on the whole watcher situation because I ironically stopped watching their channel regularly because I didn’t like how expensively produced their shows were compared to Buzzfeed Unsolved’s simplicity
#i didn’t have a problem with them changing the way they did things or anything#like it made sense that they would want to have a significant departure from their Buzzfeed style after leaving Buzzfeed#i just didn’t like it as much#so i would only watch occasionally if i needed something to listen to in the background#the fact that they are now trying to put their content behind a paywall#because production is so expensive#is wild to me#like imo the production actively made the show less enjoyable#why are you spending money you don’t have on it???#idk it just makes me sad#like i know the YouTube documentarians i watch are probably going to end up doing videos on this#usually with those videos i’m the one from the outside looking in on some drama around a person i’ve never heard about before#but i was a fan of ryan and shane since high school#I have some of their Buzzfeed unsolved merch#it’s sad that people i looked up to turned out to be so out of touch on so many levels#watcher

can we bring back procedurals? or at least just proper shows like how TV used to be? 5 to 15 seasons, a generous amount of episodes per season, 45 minutes: the sweet spot between too long and too short, pilot episodes that are wildly different from the rest of the show, filler episodes that overall contribute nothing but are extremely fun because that is what god intended, random musical episode, crossovers, waiting an entire week in anticipation to see what happens next, like, this was the PEAK of television, where did we go wrong
#i would gladly pay for cable and cut streaming for this#better yet make procedurals on streaming#if you can make 5 seasons of a show over the span of literally 10 years on a budget that could take someone to space#you can make low budget procedurals with good plot and new actors because THAT IS WHAT THE MASSES WANT#the ratio of people rewatching older shows to watching the new ones are insane#shows releasing one episode per week is what kept it relevant that long#and shows used to have more je nais se quais yk#shows today feel soulless like cash grabs#not all of them ofc there are amazing shows that i am glad to have seen#but procedurals and proper tv dramas used to and continue to be a genre that never misses if done right#sure i like umbrella academy (season 3 and 4 are erased from my memory) but with the budget for that show#if you'd hired a bunch of new actors and one popular and respected actor that everyone knows#give some new writer a chance#make a procedural#throw in some angst and found family#a bit of subtext even#and released 20 episodes over the span of 20 weeks#tell me who wouldn't have loved it#i miss procedurals man#psych#white collar#the mentalist#house md#monk#law and order#criminal minds#i do know some of them still exist but the point is that this genre deserves so much more#good writers#better producers#the rookie is doing great

When the Vanserra-Archeron twins find out that Nyx is courting their beloved friend, Zinnia (Tamlin's daughter), they're not amused at all. Specially Sylvie.
She doesn't care about her cousin, has a borderline hostile dynamic with him, but for the most part he's just "that guy from Night Court she happens to share blood with". Neth is on better terms with him and she doesn't mind spending time with him, but they're not close enough to see him as family. She considers him more a long-distance friend.
Meanwhile, they adore Zinnia. They grew up with her. She's their godfather's daughter, their beloved Uncle Tamlin. They spent their childhoods jumping from Spring to Autumn frecuently just to see each other. They love like her a sister. Their families are on the same circle. In their eyes, Zinnia has always been this sweet girl they must protect and who only deserves the best.
Which it's not Nyx Archeron. Or any other brute from the Night Court. They're sure of it.
It's not just them. Literally, no one in their circle approves of this possible union, except Elain (because she knows things). Both Eris and Nesta are amused by the whole mess but he doesn't think they fit together and she doesn't want her to be at the Night Court . Lucien doesn't like it at all and neither do his and Elain's kids. And let's not get started on poor Tamlin, having to see his exes' spawn court his precious daughter so insistently.
Back at the Night Court, it's more or less the same situation. Rhysand is the only person that openly supports his son on this and even gives him advice on how to woo the girl (which is awful advice because he only tells him to do the same things he did with feyre, ignoring that not everyone enjoys those as much as she did). Feyre doesn't understand why he's so enthusiastic about becoming family with Tamlin. The rest of the IC know where Rhysand is coming from and don't dare tell Feyre the truth...
#the twins proceed to send threatening letters to nyx to intimidate him into staying away from zinnia#tamlin is very tempted to raise wards all around the house to prevent the brat from coming#zinnia just follows her dad's example with rhysand and ignores the boy most of the time#lucien asks her if she sees herself having the inner circle as her in-laws for eternity#sylvie acts like zinnia's bodyguard when nyx is around and glares at him when he tries to get closer#neth distracts one of them when the other approaches and drags them away before they notice#“omg cousin there you are! we have so much to talk about let's go :D” cue to her physically dragging him away from the girls#tamlin and lucien both tell nyx what they think honestly and without filters#they make sure he knows they don't approve#eris and nesta are in it for the drama mostly and watch everything burn from afar#sylvie vanserra archeron#gwyneth “neth” vanserra archeron#zinnia#tamlin's daughter#pro tamlin#nyx archeron#eris vanserra#nesta archeron#neris#eris x nesta#lucien vanserra#elain archeron#elucien#elain x lucien#rhysand#feyre archeron

About my little ROTTMNT borrower AU
For those who are interested in the rottmnt borrower AU story I'm working on (which I'm calling Rise Borrowers for simplicity's sake), you can see some more of it over on my Instagram (I go by plaidartist on there), including a comic featuring April first meeting Raph, Leo, and Donnie. :)
Story summary: The tmnt bros are borrowers who live with Splinter (who's still a rat except now he's the size of an actual rat) in the walls of April's apartment. April, Raph, Leo, and Donnie are in their 20s and Mikey is 17ish. April lives there alone (perhaps maybe with Casey Sr. and Sunita as roommates, but that wouldn't happen until after she befriends the bros). Splinter teaches the bros to avoid larger creatures like humans and yokai, and they accidentally shelter Mikey to the point he has no idea what a real human looks like face-to-face and assumes they're smaller than they really are. Mikey goes on a solo mission (maybe Raph lets him do it as a 17th bday present) and accidentally tangles himself in a rope he uses to climb up April's fridge. She finds him and saves him. The two slowly build a bond, but Mikey doesn't realize she's a human until 3ish months down the road when the older 3 bros meet her. They're all wary but slowly trust her, though Donnie takes the longest to come around for several reasons, one of which is because he doesn't want to admit he's grown romantic feelings for her. They eventually become a couple. When Casey Sr. comes into the picture, she and Raph fall in love, too.
Additional note (mostly for anyone who's curious about my views on Apritello, cuz I've seen some unnecessary drama in regard to that): Because the canonical relationship between April and the turtles is ambiguous, some hc them as siblings, and some hc them as just friends. Personally, I don't see them as siblings and I ship Apritello (if I suspected they were siblings--adopted, step, biological, etc.--I would not ship them), but I have no hate towards fans who see them as siblings.
#plaid rise borrowers#rottmnt#rottmnt au#I put the Additional note there for a couple of reasons#One reason is bc you might be like I was when I first watched Rise#I was confused why some fans were calling April big sister and thought I was missing smth cuz I couldn't see it#again no hate to those who see them as siblings#Another reason is bc I've seen online drama about Apritello and wanted to be clear I want no part in any drama#the drama I've seen often includes some fans of the siblings hc accusing Apritello shippers of being proshippers#maybe this is bc they assume Apritello shippers also see the characters as siblings?#I don't support proshipping and I don't know any Apritello shippers who are proshippers#maybe some are idk but none I know#also I'm still getting the hang of tumblr#so hopefully I'm doing tags right haha

genuinely wild that early 2000s rom coms have somehow managed to be better written and more giggle kick feet twirl hair in an hour and a half than bton has managed in 8 one hour long episodes
#i am just#my flabbers are gasted#bton the bar was so low#like absolutely NONE of bridgerton has managed to give me that fizzy hopeful squee feelings#not one goddamn season#(save season 3 episode 4 and then they fucked it up with the following episodes)#but THIS MOVIE FROM 2002#HAS ME ALL GIDDY#WHAT THE FUCK BRIDGERTON#YOU COULD HAVE CLEARED THIS SO EASILY#here lemme fix the problem: hey shonda. . .did you know??? people watch a romance show??? to get invested in love#not petty random drama#oooooh i'm heated#like how did this cheesy rom com with a deeply unlikable male character manage to somehow 1: acknowledge both character's flaws#2: depict how well they work together BECAUSE of said flaws#3: have them spend plenty of time together#4: redeem both characters and#5: have a satisfying ending an hour and forty minutes. . .and Bton can't do it in EIGHT EPISODES THAT ARE AN HOUR EACH#MAKE IT MAKE SENSE

literally make your own week if you care that much, all you eluciens have turned what is supposed to be a week to celebrate elain into this shitshow of drama surrounding tamlin and beron, two characters that have nothing to do with her
I literally wrote a whole fucking post urging eluciens to participate in the event and said I had a good experience with it. I gave your event runners permission to use my art piece GLADLY because I enjoy Elain week, you are literally barking up the WRONG tree.
#why dont you look in the mirror because yall have this fucking drama every goddamn year#youve never gotten one beron or tamlin submission and you fucking know it#i watched this all go down in 2022 too- and last year eluciens were ignored and blamed for the shadowban#like just admit yall are addicted to the drama because i run multiple events without issue#i dont need to exclude ianthe from lucien week
