the thing about joe hills of nashville tennessee is that on a server of folks roleplaying mad scientists and zombies and kings and creeper-goats and kakashi of naruto and mayors and businessmen and slimes and iskall and dungeon masters and doom guy and dwarves and elves and aliens and whatever the gigaverse is, you have Joe Hills The Regular Human Guy From Nashville (Tennessee), and yet his normalcy is frequently more bizarre somehow than whatever else is going on. and this never ever fails to enchant and delight me.

The issue I’m having with all this discussion with daemon of how the crown is a burden and the price of power is exorbitant (blah blah blah) is that it’s trying to tell us some deep thematic element that simply is non-existent and downright contradicted in the show.

This whole show has been about the right (though it isn’t a right at all) to rule. Of this divine and prophetic purpose that is bestowed upon the heir. An undeniable right that should be wanted and fought for. We are supposed to cheer for Rhaenyra as she desperately fights to gain the power that she “rightfully” deserves. She is the heroine we support in her struggles of being deprived of her purpose and her crown. She WANTS it, so she DESERVES it. That’s what this whole show has been telling us.

And suddenly…we are told that’s not what’s right. The theme of this show is actually that wanting the crown makes you less deserving. The cost of power is too burdensome. Nobody should want this power. You only deserve a crown if you accept it as your burden.

And if that’s the theme we’re supposed to believe… then Long Live King Aegon II (Mr. teary eyes as he approaches the crown himself)

When it's revealed Eioghorain never betrayed Soft and Stone I'm going to be SO ready. I've got the black sails quotes about being made into a monster by the empire to keep people in line locked and loaded. If I'm wrong never say anything to me ever again.

Permission to be a nerdy expert and deeply thirsty for two minutes.

I am begging - begging - fashion writers et al to realise that “Victorian” is a specific time period and place, not an entire century. And if you must insist on the Darcy comparison (about which more anon), then recognise that Pride and Prejudice was published in 1813, aka the Georgian/Regency period. (Victoria wouldn’t become queen for almost two decades.)

And that being said: I stand by my read of the whole look being far more 1830s European Romantic.

Now that I’ve got my nerdy twitching out of the way: I would like to hear more about the whole “making a shirt that’s nicely oversized and designed to be opened like that” design process please and thank you. 😘

I need us all to be more urgently concerned with the current state of journalism.

so uh, remember back in 2019 when I was like I want to do a Dishonored cross-stitch, something harder than the Outsider’s Mark but also easier than actual people? And I wasn’t seeing a lot of existing patterns so I spent some time messing with C-Stitch and didn’t start stitching it until 2020? And I decided it would look cooler if I used the Diament metallic gold instead of just plain gold floss, aka I made it 10x more difficult. And also it would be 10in by 10in which is big for me. Like, I’ve never finished anything that big. 

Well, until now.
