yes “this is a love story down to the blade dented bone” is about Jun and Keema but it’s also about a moon goddess’ need for love from her people and the water’s love for the moon and the Third Terror’s desire for love and Lord Induun’s love for his grandchild and Raami’s love for Araya and Araya’s love for her family and Shan’s love for her father and the Third Terror’s love for Keema and (takes a deep breath bc this makes me insane)

you need to have a few great loves of your life that are, objectively speaking, not prime examples of perfectly written stories but are a fucking good time nonetheless

i see your “maomao and jinshi are the only straight couple i respect” and i raise you: whatever that is, isn’t straight

[looking-for-wisdom]

full offense to jinshi but if I had two secrets and one was I’m actually the prince of the nation and the second was I’ve been lying about being penisless this whole time I would not lead with that second one, especially if the first would automatically reveal the second

So sorry that I wanted two characters that have been through trauma and loneliness to find happiness and love in the comfort that they have with each other. What a silly goose I was hoping for that

the fall out of the Nintendo direct is so funny to watch as someone who’s disappointed, not surprised, and will be coughing up the cash anyways. like you all had to know this was coming right? Nintendo has a lot of fuck ass qualities but at least they’re consistent about it.

The cost of the console seems pretty on par with other consoles at the moment. yeah I know the specs aren’t as good, but that’s never been what Nintendo is known for. You either buy into family-friendly and portable qualities of their consoles or you don’t. And if you don’t, then you can just make the call when they release a console exclusive that’s actually worth buying. All I’m saying is don’t go shopping for soup at the clothes store — it’s a lot of money, don’t get me wrong, but you know what company you’re working with here.

As for the up charges on new games… sucks ass but you knew it was coming when TOTK dropped. I’ve honestly shifted to playing a lot of non-Nintendo games on the Switch (because I do like a portable console). There are some series I’ll drop the 80 bucks for, and it’s worth having the console to play them when they drop, but I also think you can be strategic in your purchasing by supporting indie devs.

And ofc there are still elements that are frankly highway robbery. Paying to use the internet on the switch in a home where I already pay for WiFi? Charging a surplus on their already $80 dollar games to play the Switch 2 adapted versions? It’s ridiculous, but man. Nintendo has literally never done anything free ever in their entire lives ever. My ass will still be sat at the next direct waiting for Kirby Airride updates bc nostalgia does that to a woman

Been watching Kevin Can Fuck Himself on Netflix this week. It's a fascinating show, and easy to digest as background noise while working.

Kevin Can Fuck Himself is a serious drama sendup of the classic sitcom dynamic. It's two different shows mashed into one another.

The show's front is your typical Manchild Husband sitcom about a man named Kevin McRoberts. Every episode, he has a new wacky shenanigan to drag his wife and neighbors into, which usually blows up in his face spectacularly.

But Kevin is not the show's main character. Whenever he's onscreen, the show is lit and shot in sitcom fashion, with laugh track and applause and musical cues and all that jazz. The universe revolves around him and responds as sitcoms do to his every whim.

But this show is actually about his wife Allison. And whenever she's away from Kevin, the show changes genres to a serious drama piece. It's a show about the emotional and financial abuse of being tied down to the role of the Manchild Husband's "Nagging Wife", and more broadly the effects that his Comedic Sociopathy have on the put-upon supporting cast around him as well.

It's the story of a woman's quest to finally escape from the cage that her marriage to an impulsive, inconsiderate, and entirely self-centered piece of shit has trapped her in.
