There’s few things I get more satisfaction out of on this blog than calling out shit that honestly, no one should notice, so it gives me a sort of beleaguered pleasure to check photoshop like i’m checking my watch and announce that the three high-profile snake-based cover drops from the past days/weeks that have everyone going “Lol so many snakes” in fact use the same snake. Either the same stock photo or 3D model, based on the identical shape and lighting patterns of the scales. The QUEEN OF NOTHING one had me fooled with the purple coloring, but the head and nose highlights still identifiably match the QUEEN OF THE CONQUERED snek which you can see in my highly professional mockup that took me approximately 15 seconds:

I’m not saying this is “bad”, just worth noting, although as with my Desire typeface spiel i do think blatant examples of design resource homogeny within such a small community (and in this case, within weeks of each other) are marginally embarrassing, but more than anything I’m curious how this happened! I can only assume it’s a new asset that was released on a common stock site and happened to be seen by three different designers* who rightfully all went “aw shit that’s dope gotta use that somewhere” and then promptly…. did.

(* tho both QUEEN books are published by Hachette, albeit different imprints. NINTH HOUSE is Little Brown/ Macmillan.)

“I see Cardan’s furious, arrogant handwriting scrawled over the page, taking up all available space. In some places, he pressed the nib so angrily that the paper tore.

‘Jude,’ it reads, each hateful rendering of my name like a punch to the gut.”

Each and every “Jude” was handwritten. I might be losing my mind.

Forget the Myers-Briggs fucking personality assessment. I am dead tired of hearing if someone is an INFP or an ESLQ or whatever. I want to know if someone is melancholic or choleric. Bring back the four humors. I wanna see “Kaley, 16, phlegmatic” when I go to someone’s blog. Who is with me. Lets make this happen

You're a psychological genius and I am accepting this as canon

Can we talk about how even though Jude can’t be glamoured, Taryn can?

And that maybe, she wasn’t an awful sister twice but maybe Madoc glamoured her into posing as Jude….

Is it a long shot? Yes, but also, I wouldn’t put it past Madoc who at this point has been outwitted and needs an upper hand.

Thoughts?
