I went in for an extra hour at work today which means, obviously every 6 hours you get a lunch (30 min break). My manager told me we were “too busy” for me to stop and take my break.

That’s nice and also against the law.

So from tomorrow, I’m going back to my original schedule of 9-2 where I take my 15 min break at the end of my shift to go home early.

FUCK

YOU.

[image id: digital illustration of tome kurata from mob psycho 100. she is in a top-down perspective that warps her proportions so that it looks like a fish-eye effect. she has an exaggerated contemplative look on her face as her right hand pointer finger rests on her cheek and she looks upwards. she is wearing a green and red plaid scarf with a tan coat and maroon skirt. around her head there are little pink aliens floating freely as well as in ufos along with some planets and sparkles. the background is a simple gradient from teal to blue with some bigger sparkle shapes surrounding tome’s body. end id.]

Wanted to take a moment to give a nod of appreciation to SSO for the evolution of specifically mane and tail physics.

As someone who's been here since before the first quarter horses were released it's been incredible to see the change from the mane being plastered onto the neck and the tail just being one whole club connected to the horse, to seeing the mane finally get disconnected for its own rig (I think it was the gen 2 haflingers and Friesians where they first tried this) to the mane getting broken up into strands and waving back as the horse moves (Lusitano) and now seeing the same treatment being given to the tails in the last few breeds.

The Saddlebred's release has me especially excited to see what they're capable of, and has me really hopeful that we'll see that same treatment given to the redux Friesians later this year.

let's talk about the fish/water/christ symbolism in the game of kings. with spoilers

fish (as ιχθυς) is an acronym for christ, and it's the first food jesus eats after being resurrected, right? it symbolizes rebirth, life, and christ himself. i personally think fish are slippery and cold-blooded too, but that's neither here nor there.

now look at how the game of kings starts: "lymond is back". we immediately know this book is about returning, it's about rebirth. in fact, the first thing we see is the man himself submerged in a body of water and coming out on the other side, after a baptism of sorts, as the character he will play for most of the book: lymond the outlaw, lymond the traitor.

the first words out of his mouth are "i am a narwhal": he identifies himself as a fish right away, and not just any fish but the unicorn fish; the unicorn of course being scotland's national animal. in perspective, he tells us everything we need to know about him: his status as a christ figure, his destiny to be reborn, his complicated relationship with his country.

the next time he's in a body of water, it's the second chapter and he's dying from a head injury in a bog. he's washed clean, this time, too: from his own identity. he's free to inhabit another character from the lymond constellation. it's also pretty funny that he's found by sym while he's going fishing ("you’ve hooked a twenty-pounder this time, my lad"), and he's nursed back to health by someone named Christian. not subtle.

lymond seems to be pretty into this whole fish and rebirth thing, does he not? he wouldn't lie to us. he wouldn't pretend to embrace life while actively seeking death, right? anyway, no relation at all, when the baby queen mary tries feeding him a fish he pretends to eat it and secretly throws it away. the fish is described as struggling and barely alive, which again i am sure is a coincidence.

then some stuff happens, and the next time lymond is offered fish he doesn't have it in him to keep pretending. he doesn't want the damn fish. newsflash, asshole (richard): he really, really wants to die. this is my favorite scene for many reasons, and one of them is the perfect juxtaposition of its literal and symbolic meanings: richard says he wants to see lymond hanged, but what he does is to drag him away from the tomb-like dovecote and towards running water, makes him eat the damn fish again and again until the miracle is complete. he's holding on to his brother with both hands and teeth before he even realizes he's doing it.

when it comes to an end the fish is off the hook, christ is off the cross and for once he's not sacrificed for the sins of others, and we close on him in his mother's arms in a beautiful literary pietà.

there's so much stuff i purposefully didn't mention and probably didn't notice, this is just a tiny example of the gorgeous figurative and thematic cohesion in this novel. i love it. thank you dorothy dunnett.
