#I wince

That feeling when one of your long time favourite YouTubers suddenly starts using AI generated art in his videos and you stew for 45 minutes before leaving what you hope is a thoughtful explanation about the ethical issues involved in training AI datasets on artists who did not consent and who do not see compensation, that without those hard-working artists the AI wouldn't be able to even exist because computers can't imagine jack shit, how it's not used as "just a tool" but as a way to replace artists whole-cloth, and yes it COULD be an excellent tool if it was built and used at all responsibly, but it's not and so that's why it's controversial and you hit send. And then you have to spend the rest of the day going "oh hell I hope he sees it but I hope no one else sees it because 2024 is only 6 days old and it has already not left me with enough beans to handle the shit-takes of the masses even peripherally as I hit the block button on any who might come my way." I am not good at relaxing on my weekends, my guys. Maybe I should give in and draw that absolutely stupid idea I had of Heinrich taking public transit after all.

everybody mentions that the biggest clownery situation in mdzs was wei wuxian saying to lan wangji that lan wangji was gonna die alone and that he’d never marry into the lan clan, but nobody mentions how lan jingyi straightforwardly stated “hanguang-jun isn’t a cut-sleeve!” to wei wuxian. and then not long later saw hanguang-jun marry wei wuxian. i bet that’s one of my boy’s biggest mistakes he can’t stop thinking about before going to sleep

“It’s not right to psychoanalyse an author’s morals by what they write” is obviously a good and valid stance but have you ever read a book by a male author who makes his thoughts on women so unpleasantly clear the moment a female character comes on page

Lucifer: Satan.

Lucifer: I am your father.

Satan: *pins Lucifer back against the wall with a butter knife to the throat*

Satan: Take. THAT. BACK.

Lucifer: 😐

And from then on, Satan was known as the 4th brother.

honestly as much as i dont like angel for a whole laundry list of reasons, i do actually find his character hella amusing sometimes. like the guy's a sopping wet paper bag with absolutely zero self-control or basic sense, even after two hundred years of living. he couldn't even kiss a sixteen-year-old girl for a few seconds without vamping out and throwing himself out the window like a common criminal. every other second of the show he's going 'but we can't!' and then he will immediately do the thing he just said he couldn't do. most of his screentime is taken up by him standing in one place looking awkward as hell - and somehow he is even standing badly. he tries so desperately hard to pull the whole romeo and juliet thing with his only two prevailing expressions because it's his only way to hook a superpowered teenager into being his 'redemption'. like alskjfdlksd. is he okay in the head. this man should not be around children. he is the most pathetic boyfailure of all time, and not even in an attractive way. but ragging on him is fun as hell it has to be said. so he's not the worst i suppose.

I've seen alot of badfaith interpretations for the writers having 'forgotten' jaeherys' death when Rhaenyra says the 'son for a son' line, and honestly I thought it made alot of sense with how Rhaenyra sees the situation.

Rhaenyra clearly sees herself as a Good Moral Ruler who ONLY enacts violence as a Means for Peace™️, so I dont think she takes responsibility for Jaeherys' death at all. I think she sees his death as a random fluke tragedy that rests solely at Daemon's feet, and completely rejects that she has anything to do with it. She's the Good Guy she would never kill an innocent! She rebukes her husband very seriously for that waste of energy and violence, (wagging her finger at him bc no thats bad we dont kill children in 'Our Good Justified War'), but I dont think she cares enough about jaeherys or jaehera to consider it revenge for lucerys' death.

To Rhaenyra the fact that theyre innocent children, and therefore worthy of protection upsets her about jaeherys' death, but ultimately shes so removed from the kids themselves, I dont think she cares so much personally about them. I doubt she thinks one of their deaths is equal to her loss, and I honestly dont think it occurs to her that Alicent would feel for Jaehyrus as acutely as she did for lucerys. (Which might be correct, seeing Alicent was much more concerned about her daughter's grief than the death itself)

I think with the 'son for a son' line we do see the two sides at war within Rhaenyra. She's a mother who wants vicious revenge for her son's death, but shes also a mother who knows that this will destroy Alicent.

Her 'son for son' line is equal parts relish and sympathy, she wants to dig the knife in a bit bc alicent had a hand in lucerys' death, but also I think 'son for a son' could also be her terrible way of HELPING Alicent make such an impossible decision by framing it as justice. Like, 'One of your sons is guilty for killing mine, whether its by direct action or responsibility via usurping my throne, not to mention other warcrimes, Therefore, its okay to choose to save helaena because she's innocent where your sons are not, and finally this is justice.'

TLDR: Rhaenyra only considers Alicent's direct sons as compensation for her loss of lucerys, both bc theyre 'responsible' for it and also bc she barely remembers that the younger green targs even exist. She says Son for a Son specifically to Alicent to make the decision easier for her.
