Igor Maslennikov, the director of the soviet Holmes series, of the Queen of Spades, the Winter Cherry, and of numerous small yet memorable films, passed away on 17th September. Good luck on the other side man, and thank you for the work.

noticing the first signs of ageing, knowing you take after your dad's side of the family where the women all transform into stern high cheekboned dickensian matriarchs after the age of 50

Bought some books and sold three of my goats so today's been a good day, if you don't consider the stress, headache, hairache, dehydration, and anxiety ☺️

Hi! Welcome to insanity, where I go through this one amazing manhwa "A Returner's Magic Should Be Special" and make a post every time Zod Exarion appears, just because. Please be aware that these posts can have spoilers up to chapter 232, so you might want to read that before these :)

Chapter 40:

Alright, so this is our first "official" look at this world's Zod, which is pretty exciting.

This picture is 100% him, this is his expression in at least half the Manhwa, so,,, good job? This is his very essence, staring at magic items intensely, probably a slightly crazed look in his eyes, knowledge and chaos shining though them. :'D

When l first saw this panel I honestly thought : wow this person must be very smart and powerful, but also a) what the fuck is up with him and b) I would like to not be in the same city as him ever thank you very much. In fact, I would appreciate at least one country between us at all times if that's possible :D

And then the villain vibes, who let this man have the villain vibes??? I don't think l even realized until my third reread that this was Zod. Why are you standing in a black room next to a big chair in front of a big ass window creepy lighting and all like some overrated eccentric super villain ready to take over the world??

Then I realized that in chapter 1 we saw Zod through the eyes of Desir, just like how we see him every time after this. This might be the only time when we see him how everyone, who haven't spent the last 6 years getting their ass kicked by him in chess, sees him. The very serious, looming figure with unimaginable power and knowledge. Someone who's pulling the threads in the shadows.

There's a very big contrast between these panels and every other appearance of his. While everyone sees the expressionless almost godlike genius, who's capable of anything and everything, Desir sees his friend, the very human, very real person, who he spent the last 6 years trying to keep sane by playing chess with him, and the person who did the same for him in return.

I might as well could say that in this picture we see "The Sage of Wisdom", the person everyone relies on, and everywhere else we see Zod Exarion, who, at least Desir knows, also needs to rely on someone.

Honestly, the more I stare at the last picture, the more I think him "breaking down" after finding Helena's ring(???) was coming for a long time. I mean, how long was he tower master for at this point? 71 years?? Jfc.

tell me two stories about your grandma that make you laugh.

so there's this southern food called chowchow, right........? it's like kimchi of the south. hers has green tomatoes, sugar, turmeric, mustard seed, pepper flakes, a fuckton of habanero, cabbages!!!, jalapenos, onion, garlic, and a bunch of OTHER shit drowned in vinegar. a lot of ppl have sweet or mild chowchow but for some reason hers is a gift from hell itself.... u cant get her offerings in the grocery store... esp since she experiments w. the recipe every time she makes it and peppers get hotter over time.. anyway she made a jar and her brother came from indiana to visit. he was like ' gimme some of that, i bet it aint hot ' and he took some bites of it mixed with collard greens. and he started to STRUGGLE. i mean homeboy was dying!!!! grandma stood there, stone faced, and asked, ' is it still not hot? you wanna take that back, paul? ' there was legit no reason for her to be that catty. she almost killed her brother there in the damn house!!!!!!!!!

she has a tendency to act up at funerals. i remember in the early 2000s we attended a funeral of a cousin of hers and people were giving sooooooo many stories of the deceased since the funeral itself was huge. she looked at me, a 13-year-old, and said ' i'm sick of this. i'm gonna go. ' caught her outside of the church chewing wrigleys gum. thats her fave gum.

she is so outta pocket......... every time she opens her mouth for NO reason.
