this excerpt from a doom eternal review is at the core of what i think made 2016's storytelling several steps above what eternal was trying to do and why i'm so pissed off at how disastrously they flew off the rails.

It's that time of the year, folks! Tomorrow is gonna be my first exam, after that, I have 3 more exams to do on Sunday, and then on the 11th and 15th. Which means I'm gonna be focusing on studying. I'll still be lurking to chat, I might also let myself do a reply or two, but no more than that. This is your reminder that you all are amazing writers and I love you so much, you've got no idea how happy it makes me to see all of your little icons on my dash.

And that I'll come back... I always come back (I'm still here anyway)

the book may be dubious but the concept of doing what basically amounts to boolean expressions with spoken magic is COOL!

Me: hmm I want to try other granolas. Branch out. Get more protein

Me, mid meal: what the fuck this just tastes like fuckin. Oat Puff Cereal. It's squishy. And gross.

Ingredients: whole rolled oats, textured soy prot-

Me, scornfully: what the hell man that's totally what it is. this should feel like eating rocks. In a bad way. This doesn't even hurt my mouth a little bit. smh. And you call yourself a company. So fucking disappointed in you Open Nature™

listen i have a LOT of really pretty smut books but i think the one i got in the mail this week takes the cake

[the chromatic fantasy by H.A.]

beautiful spot foil on the front cover plus guilded pages??? hell yes. hes a weighty boy for his size and *feels* incredibly luxurious in ways book nerds are sure to appreciate plus the art is absolutely gorgeous

very soft, sketchy style evocative of like 60s and 70s animation. every bit ive peeped at so far has been gorgeous but not super tightly cleaned like a lot of modern comics, so it feels really organic and raw, even at a glance. vvv refreshing

i preordered on a whim back in like, march when the announcement from @silversprocket crossed my feed and i have Zero regerts. i cannot wait to dive in and actually read it

My #1 post of 2022

Disney really told Alex Hirsch “you can't say ‘Lucifer’ (already the name of a Disney character, I might add) in a very specific comedic context or imply that teenagers might be kissing but you can reference Manos: The Hands of Fate absolutely no problem”

[todayisafridaynight]

I've been in my feelings about Jo and Aoki's last interactions for a bit...

Because that whole scene is textbook verbal abuse, right... Aoki is very clearly trying to tear Jo's self-esteem and bolster his own, establish control, all that, and Jo just has to stand there meekly and take it. All because Jo's disobeyed one too many times and Aoki needs someone he knows he can control to head the Tokyo Omi Alliance.

Like Jo says he's never disobeyed Aoki except in that one instance, but not handling things himself at Otohime Land was very much his way of giving Ichi an out indirectly, and I feel like Aoki was beginning to catch on based on his comments about Jo neglecting the situation and acting strangely. Directly refusing his orders just confirmed his suspicions.

It's kind of lost among all the bombshells dropped in Chapter 13, but Jo's hesitance to kill anyone who's important to Arakawa is a big deal to me. It's not like he had any personal ties to Hoshino or any investment in maintaining the balance of the Ijin Three whatsoever; he went to those lengths to set himself up to be stopped because Arakawa wouldn't want Hoshino to die and that was it.

To return to the scene, I think it's also a great demonstration of Aoki's "those who use and those who get used" mentality. This next thing is... pretty badly mistranslated, at least in the subs, so it was lost on me for a while. But before the Lost Puppy line, the specific way Aoki chooses to downplay Jo's merit is by telling him he only got to his position because everyone was so sensitive to his (Aoki's) feelings and could tell he favored Jo, following him around like a lost puppy being precisely why Aoki favored him.

I don't think that was all there was to it, of course. Dude was five and deliberately brings Jo wherever he goes to this day by choice. It's kind of like those guys who get rejected once and start going on tirades about how "she should've been grateful, she was ugly anyway." But that's what Aoki wants to portray--you only had it that good because of me, and I can take it away whenever I want. Whenever you're no longer of use. Anything to preserve his status as the user and Jo's as the used.

Jo's crossed the line at this point. He is no longer of use. He does kind of get into it so that takes the edge off my frustration with The English Language, but from this point onward, he believes Aoki sees him as a "bullet"--a hitman only sent on suicide missions. So despite everything he's done for him, despite being "the favorite," he knows full well Aoki's trying to kill him before Aoki even gives Ishioda the order. And... he accepts it.

So TO GO FROM THAT to having to reconcile in prison would've been so much powerful than what the ending was trying to do. Having to come to terms with the fact you killed one of the only people who saw you for who you were and truly cared about you, were going to kill the other two, and have abused all three from the moment you realized you had power over them. And for Jo, going through everything he went through because of Aoki and loving him without question anyway... Getting to express that in some small way... I need to lie down...

ALSO tattoo essay... later... maybe tomorrow... I mainly just feel like I sound extremely mean about rggtattoos' take😭😭😭but the show must go on

YEAH NO THAT'S IT ALL FAX NO PRINTER NO EXTRA NOTES NECESSARY

It'd be the fact that Aoki'd have no choice but to confront those decisions he made and those things he wanted to happen. he'd made a social circle for himself where people predominantly liked him for the power and influence he had and totally turned his back on the people who- awfully ironically as he wanted- loved him for him

He'd already smoothed things over with Ichi, so- by his own hand- all that was left was Jo, the person he'd taken for granted the most next to Arakawa and who he planned to have executed alongside him. Jo's got every right to not forgive Aoki and to push him away, let each other rot in prison ignoring each other. So it's the worst feeling when Jo doesn't do that- its impossible for me not to imagine Jo wondering about what happened for Aoki to get so banged up if he's brought into prison the same night, and making sure Aoki's okay despite it.

Whereas Ichi was more upfront about his love and even frustrated about it ('frustrated' in that 'how could Aoki be so blind not to see how much care there is for him from us'), the breaking part about Jo is that he's forced himself to be so careful about showing his affection. Ichi's love was borderline irritating for how apparent it was: Jo's could have easily been written off or ignored.

All of that said, prison is where Aoki would be forced to realize that Jo does love him like Ichi said he does; there's no reason to keep up appearance or kiss up anymore- Aoki doesn't have any use to Jo anymore (if Aoki chose to interpret Jo's loyalties as a stepping stone to promote himself), and there's certainly no where else to run. It's probably that dawning moment that's gotta be so. Oh God What The Fuck. Like it's a sobering moment for him to go 'What have I been doing this whole time/what have I done to everyone', as corny as it sounds

#GeneralMills #FrenchToastCrunchCereal #GeneralMillsCinnamonToastCrunchChocolateChurrosCereal #GeneralMillsCinnaFuegoToastCrunchCereal#CerealMixReview

I mixed the General Mills French Toast Crunch Maple Syrup Flavored Cereal, General Mills Cinnamon Toast Crunch Chocolate Churros Cereal, and General Mills CinnaFuego Toast Crunch with the creamy Blue Diamond AlmondmIlk and it was pretty good.

The dry version of this mixed tasted a little cinnamon and lightly chocolatey in flavor but the French toast cereal got overpowered by the other two cereals. This was sweet but not overly sweet to me.

I tried this with the creamy almond milk and it was pretty good.

This cereal mix taste was cinnamon with a light chocolate taste but the french toast maple flavor was absent in this cereal mix. The cereal milk tasted more cinnamon sweet than both the chocolate and maple flavor. This was sweet but not overly sweet to me.

I would eat this again.

I already reviewed all three of these cereals with the creamy almond milk before but not mixed together.

wtf why are so many coffee grinders so expensive

Star Crunch Ice Cream from Hudsonville/Little Debbie

A better version of the Crispy Caramel Candy Bar. The base is a nice, sweet-salty caramel. Smooth, reasonably dense for the price. There’s plenty of the chocolate covered rice cereal pieces, some are soft but many are crispy. Decent amount of the fudge as well, which isn’t particularly amazing quality but adds some more texture and sweetness.
