Back on my shit.

Sky's PS4 release got me fucked up here's a drawing

I got a little lazy with the background sorry

There's a whole fan universe that's been gurgling in my bowels fir almost a year now, and the PS4 fashion pack satisfies my headcanons oh so nicely. The wayfarer sounds they used for the "call" even sound like my own hc for how Rythulian older children/preteens sound

I call this latest squeeze "Season of Redemption"

And also an error from the dev process that looked really cool, almost like the roles between spirit and "kid" are reversed

And also a silly little thing

Also have some angst for the storyline for this "season"

I think it'd be interesting to have a season guide who isn't so friendly and welcoming. One that's disappointed, angry, and grieving over their toil and efforts for their people and how they've paid off. May or may not include some commentary towards generational guilt, repetition of history, and the Sky community.

I hate Zelda fans so fucking much.

P.S.

It offers "keen insights" such as "TOTK is an expansion, not a sequel" and “It’s debatable whether or not it would have been good for her character, but leaving Zelda as a dragon would arguably have made for a stronger story.” You’re welcome for saving you two hours of your life.

I blame TV Tropes for this 100% literal-minded brainlet shit.

I've come to a terrible realisation. Tzeentch is real, and he invented crypto-currencies. The greed, the ambition, the constant switching from one coin to another in pursuit of success, the wild fluctuations that take people from poverty to riches and back again in a matter of hours... The architect of fate is with us, and Elon Musk is his herald.

I think suggesting that Tzeentch would select a brainlet like Elon 'Emerald Mine' Musk as a herald is offensive to Tzeentchians as a whole

He absolutely invented crypto, though

John Kramer Rowling is a blatant fucking tranny who’s taken you walking birth defects for a complete ride. Look at his bone structure, the undeniably male genetics in that ugly fucking face of his. It’s grotesque, and you brainlets have let him become a vocal mouthpiece of radical feminism. This is why we need to gatekeep, to keep morons like you from poisoning the movement further.

Ok I’m sorry I don’t usually publish blatant trolling/spam asks, but this is so funny to me, you really couldn’t think of a man’s name beginning with K other than KRAMER?

The Kevins, Keiths, and Kens of the world must be so hurt.

Anyway, I’m taking this as a sign to turn anon off, since crap like this far outweighs the meaningful stuff - get any burning anonymous questions in within a few hours, gyns, or you’ll lose the opportunity.

Dipshit manager from parent company sent an email volunteering me for a 21 hour shift for the concert on Friday, which is kinda sad because I do actually want the opportunity to do more lighting gigs for concerts but not like that you absolute brainlet holy fuck

[mejcinta]

It's funny that they're coming out now saying how they sent employees after critics like we all didn't know from the jump that they were doing that. All you had to do was post a picture of Rhaenyra on Twitter/X and the post got 3K likes in an hour.

I don't know how long you've been following me, but I remember around about a month after the end of Season 1 when we were going through the Behind the Scenes stuff and finding all these really fucked changes that Sara Hess made along with the absolute stupidity of some of the stuff that Olivia Cooke and Emma D'Arcy said about their characters ...

The push back was fucking psychotic, like mental Asylum levels of crazy. Like people threatening to kill me and hoping my dad dies levels of crazy ...

Someone accused me of being a pedophile because I kept mentioning how Sarah Hess though it was "Cool" that Olivia Cooke had a really fucking weird headcannon that Alicent and Rhaenyra played doctor as little girls that fostered Lesbian feelings ... which was one of the most fucked up things I've heard an actress say. And when I called her out some brainlet got weirdly offended and accused me of bring it up too much ... like I shouldn't fucking bring up when actresses say really weird groomer shit.

Anyway, I make a habit of not posting hate messages unless they put their name on it ... but I got to tell you that the hate messages I got for months was unreal. And they didn't start coming in till I took issue with Sara Hess, Olivia Cooke, and Emma D'Arcy.

So you bet your ass that HBO was going after critics of their shows.

And I was already on their shit list for a decade of my activity in the Game of Thrones fandom since the show began.

They were like "That's that Mutha'fucker on those podcasts that wrote "Sister Golden Hair" get'em!"

They even sent fucking Elio Garcia after me at one point.

I bet you've got horror stories of your own ... and you just joined the fandom relatively recently.

Wow! I need to look for those interviews, because I just never got the time before to do that. It would be on brand for Sara Hess, the woman responsible for the near downfall of Hotd, to utter nonsense.

I also understand that some of the actors' comments at the Comic Con 2 years ago left the audience a bit scandalised so there's that. It's upstate, out of touch modern lib behaviour, I've observed as an outsider, to not guage the gravity and awkwardness that some statements have on the regular Tom, Jane and Harry.

But yes. I do believe that HBO has ever since resolved to jump into over drive, battling more and more critics, some of which are formidable and respected You Tube commentators and show reviewers that called them out on their bs. It's no secret the hotd production started on uncertain, wobbly footing. They desperately need to make the project work, despite of the shit we now know of that continues to fly in the writers' room and production.

AUTISTICLY INFODUMPING ABOUT CROCODILES AND THE PICK 2 MEME

Absolutely livid at how underestimated crocodiles are in that pick two meme. You absolute fucking dumbshits think 10,000 rats, literally a species that survives mostly by excessive breeding and typically serves the purpose of being food for predators higher in the food chain, are going to suddenly become ravenous bloodthirsty tyrants and skin their prey alive with their shitty little front teeth that usually leave a little scratch, can defeat 10 crocodiles, an undefeated, armored apex predator species of 80 fucking million years. You would probably have more luck sending 100 horses to fight them you absolute fucking fridge temperature IQ brainlets.

Crocodiles are intelligent, tactical and cooperative hunters just as much as the lions and wolves on the list of options. They have extremely high aggression so they're perfect for a combat situation unlike the 10,000 rats or even the grizzly bears that people seem to fall for. Depending on when theyve had their breeding season, you may get the pick of the strongest dominant males, the survivors of the culling of breeding competitors. Around the breeding season of Crocs, male crocs tend to go absolutely fucking beast mode and achieve some really insane hunts. They're far less likely to retreat but they still properly evaluate their prey. They typically only retreat when theyve run out of stamina.

They're generally speedy on land but only for short distances, this is ofc because their hunting style is more stealth and surprise oriented - the speed is used for the final lunge. That being said, if this is some kind of battle royale then inevitably a crocodiles opponent will have to attack, it doesnt need to run at all, it can just wait stealthily like it normally does. Obviously if the battle is taking place near or on a body of water then all other opponents are done for. They can swim at about 20kmh effortlessly and for very long periods of time. The crocodiles preferred technique is maiming their prey and drowning them while ripping them apart all in one swift movement so obviously a body of water adds a massive advantage. Theres no out-swimming a crocodile and theres a very low chance of survival for pretty much every mammal.

On the topic of speed, despite their bulky appearance, they're extremely agile in close combat. Often once their opponent is close, their battle ends quick in the crocodiles favor because they can use the weight of their tails to whip their heads behind them should a predator attack from behind.

Also, saltwater crocodiles grow up to like 2,200 lbs. While this takes a toll on their stamina on land, it massively contributes to their superior ability to wrestle their prey. By catching their prey in their jaws and throwing their weight around, they rip their prey into chunks and crush its bones. They can also throw their weight around when galloping on land to help gain momentum, increasing their speed similarly to how a rabbit runs.

Crocodiles only have 24 teeth. Their only purpose is to grip prey and they do that extremely well, even if the prey is barely in their mouth. Crocodiles dont chew their food, they crush it with their jaws and rip it apart as mentioned above. I should probably also mention that THEY HAVE THE STRONGEST BITE OUT OF ANY LIVING BEING ON THE PLANET! Thats right! Stronger than a hippopotamus. That's approximately 3,700 lbs per square inch of force in just one bite, sometimes even more if it's a big saltie lad.

They have extremely strong bones structures on it's back called osteoderms on top of their dermal armor. THIS CAN MAKE THEM PARTIALLY BULLETPROOF!! Of course, whether its effective against bullets depends on the caliber of gun, the distance its shot from and where the shot lands on the croc. That being said, almost everywhere except its belly is covered in strong dermal armour. To get a clean shot, you need to have a high caliber gun, be relatively close (risky) and you can only one shot it if its exposing its belly or the side of its neck... which is not going to happen if its focused on you and not something above it. The hunter in this situation would definitely want to distract it with bait so they can sneak up close and get the shot.

The main challenges to the crocodile in this situation would be the 50 eagles. The odds are balanced out mostly in numbers here. A potential weak spot for the crocodiles here are the eyes. If the eagles were to go for the eyes, that would obviously be extremely risky given how close it is to the jaw. Not only that but Crocodiles can hold their breath underwater for an hour. Theres a chance that crocodiles could hold their own against eagle attacks for long enough before eventually landing bites on all 50 eagles. Itd be a lengthy, monumental task for only 10 of them though. With the eagles strength in numbers, one could lure the crocodile to jump up from water or land while other eagles could then attack its exposed belly. If this battle takes place on land, they could slash around the crocodiles throats. The numbers here lead more likely to an eagle victory, but a crocodile victory is not impossible.

I've seen some people claim that crocodiles are the weaker option because they're so close to the ground that you can just jump over them. This absolutely hysterical because you're jumping directly into their line of fire! Try to jump over a crocodile headed towards you and you're basically doing all of the work for them. But yeah sure dude! Why not shoot your shot :)

Now I think most people have come to the reasonable conclusion that almost every animal would probably die in this situation and the winner wouldnt be clear at all. Its true that it would mostly just be a loss for everyone. Crocodiles arent exempt from that likelihood. The 10,000 rats are obviously going to have more survivors however they provide absolutely no attack or defense capabilities so they're a useless option if you're picking a team to defend you. Also crocodiles can live up to 100 years old whereas rats live up to about 4 years. Should this battle take place over many years, the crocodiles would probably just live off eating the rats after the other predator species are taken down, making it the clear winner over the rats. Theres absolutely nothing a rat can do to harm a crocodile given how strong the dermal armour of a croc is. All rats can do is run away.

As for the rest, 10 is a very generous number of crocodiles given that you're only offered 1 human, 15 wolves, 7 bulls, 5 gorillas, all significantly weaker animals that the crocodiles could wipe the floor with in the animal kingdom.

The grizzlys normally would be a challenge but because the OP of the pick 2 meme underestimated crocs, we have 10 crocs and 3 bears. A swift bite to the leg of a bear and a heavy throw to the ground for it to be attacked by another crocodile would have the bears finished in minutes. The claws of the bear, blunt or sharp would be a tickle on a crocs armor. Normally blunt bear claw can crush skulls in a single blow. This wouldnt work on a crocodile anywhere near as effectively as crocodiles have an exoskeleton and one of the sturdiest skulls in the animal kingdom. A bear bite is weak as shit compared to crocs and it would be weak against a croc as well for reasons I just stated. A bear wouldnt want to get their head too close to a croc anyway because itd give the croc an opportunity for a single-bite kill around the skull and neck. Granted the bears are faster on land but they're not particularly agile in close combat. Usually this isnt an issue in the bears habitat but in the case of a crocodile, theyll get caught by those quick jaws. These poor bastards have to fight each other anyway in this scenario so the crocodiles would conserves energy by waiting for the bears to get close. In terms of temperament, grizzlies wouldnt go near crocs unless the crocs were actively threatening them. Even then, a heavy tail whip could stun a grizzly and some degree of hesitation or even a retreat. From the perspective of some massive hungry crocs however, 3 grizzly bears might look appetizing and with the unwavering gameness of locked-jaw male crocs, the bears would be fucked.

The 4 lions would be an even bigger challenge because lions are even faster than bears. Both are apex predators of their habitats so normally, it would all come down to who's habitat they're fighting on. That being said, theres been many records of large male nile crocs confronting entire packs of lions on land and coming out on top. And once again, the OP underestimated crocodiles. We have 10 crocodiles and 4 lions. The crocs clearly clap the lions here.

Overall, the strength is determined by how many encounter each other + whether or not the animals are injured or starved + the strength and defense of each animal. That being said its fucking ASTOUNDING to me that barely anyone picks the APEX PREDATOR FOR TENS OF MILLIONS OF YEARS, COMPLETELY UNEVOLVED SINCE, PERFECTED IN THE ART OF HUNTING AND STILL LOW RISK OF EXTINCTION over 10,000 small, defenseless, lower in the food chain animals that dont attack in the way people are hypothetically strategizing and are easy food for every other animal listed.

Entire image is spoiled, a while back I wanted to make some more doodles similar to this one but I wasn't pleased with it and it lacked the same weight and balance that my first one had so it stayed in my Procreate septic tank till 2024 to be posted.

Also I got incredibly silly so uhhh consider this image as a warning:

Got a bad roommate story i feel like telling because of recent events SO....

The year is 2017 or something and i move to Philadelphia to start a band, a year passes by and band moves in together for the sake of an easy practice space. We’re on tour in October of 2018 and bassist has a past tinder date come to a show cause it was in the area. She already confessed her LOVE for him. (this was i think their third time hanging out) He tells us he doesn’t want a relationship cause he isn’t over his ex and blah blah blah, they start dating cause that man was and always will be an idiot. She would come by our house and everyone (i live with four other people) would be cordial, friendly even.. We fucking hated her cause she only ever asked you a question so she could answer it, kinda like every washed band dude that has an interview based podcast. She was so loud and had the most annoying inflection (she’s from new jersey, the only redeeming quality of which is that it will one day be underwater) She’d fake her tastes to try and look cooler to us but it was so obvious it only evoked pity but you can’t really feel much pity for someone you don’t like, 

She’d also lie about everything else, she commented on a post in her township facebook group (great indication) to try and grandstand about handing out narcan to those in need and how she grows vegetables for her community and she lives in a house where her roommates rescue pets. (i yanked a dog off the street and a cat crawled into our house, good things to do but we wanted those animals DON’T get it twisted) I don’t know if she ate vegetables let alone was a part of a community garden (of which there are several nearby) and she certainly never touched narcan in her life (despite it being very available)  She was just a fucking assclown and we all knew it.

In the summer of 2019 we went on our longest tour to date and by day 3 she was crying on the phone begging our bassist to come home. She had zero friends (for obvious reasons) and my partner who lives with me wasn’t trying to hang out (for obvious reasons) 

We played a show in Arkansas or Alabama or something and someone from the band Thou gave us acid (thanks.) Our soon to be ex drummer (thank god, different story different day, same tour tho) and later to be ex bassist (oh look a theme) took the acid as we drove from Arkanbama to Douglasville, Georgia (that’s where The Chariot are from) where the remaining two of us slept in the parking lot, before we went to bed we noticed there where several texts and six missed calls (and counting) on our dipshit bassists phone, he was outside tripping hard and we had no intention of telling him in hopes all six or so (pathetic and fight filled) months of their relationship fell apart right then and there.

The sun shines through the fading tint of the windows in our 2003 ford van, Alex (guitar) and I wake up to see ex-drummer trying to comfort ex-bassist outside in the parking lot, someone’s crying, this is it (we think) she’s finally gonna move out and we can enjoy not tip toeing through my house to avoid that loud obnoxious south jersey loser.

Douglasville isn’t very far from Atlanta (where our next show was) so we decided to enjoy the nature of rural Georgia before the show. It was a nice day out and there were several state parks near by. Bassist spend the entire day on the phone, “We broke up.” “We’re back together.” We’re all sick of it. The show in Atlanta was a fest we shouldn’t have played as the only metalcore band on a twinkle emo fest, but the dude who booked it liked us and promised to pay us well. He didn’t even watch the set, it’s fine though, we had to deal with heart ache. Bassist really seemed like he was gonna pull the plug on things, he really fucking did, she demanded the night prior that he come home IMMEDIATELY and that just wasn’t gonna happen, there were two more days or something.

We play the remaining shows and get home, drummer is soon kicked out for something that happened on the tour, they were the only one in the band who wasn’t living with us at the time. We add our roommate Kyle on drums and a mutual friend of Alex and Bassist (who grew up together.) The point is, everyone in the band are friends now, I’m probably the most alienated cause i’m a curmudgeon but we all have a good time together, after a year and a half of me wanting to fight our drummer. 

At this point i feel like i have the hang of kicking people out of things, having evicted a guitarist prior and now our drummer from our ensemble. The final straw as this idiots roommate was her screaming about her makeup bag getting ruined in her boyfriends friends car (she left it there undoubtedly.) I think she hit him over this whole thing, I was sick of it and told everyone to get downstairs so we could tell her she has two weeks to find a new place or move home. In that whole conversation she tried to say she would stay because “squatters rights” which goes to show you how much this brainlet knows about anything. She wasn’t on the lease at all but we still allowed her to stay. I told her she would come home to all of her belongings on the street if she didn’t have a place in two weeks. I wasn’t fucking around. She ALSO tried to say she was going to keep the cat that crawled into our home prior to her moving in on the basis of “it sleeps in my room all the time” which was true but only because she closed her fucking door with it inside. I got incredibly loud with her and uh.. asserted that she didn’t want to try to take the cat that wasn’t hers out of our home.

We told dipshit bassist he didn’t have to leave but he obviously chose her over us. Which is fine I wasn’t really too fond of him as he was a spazz, funny but so fucking dumb. 

They move out together and we go on another tour, this one was ten days, not our longest but not our shortest either. First tour that wasn’t just two days together since we kicked the idiots out of our house. 

Bassist spends the entire day on the phone with her in the back of the van. We had a show seven hours away in Harrisonburg Virginia. At gas stations when we could get separation from the idiot we exchanged what we thought we heard over the phone. “Do you want me to call 911?” 

We arrive in Harrisonburgh, we’re probably an hour from playing when Bassist tells me that his girlfriend cut herself and that she’s in the hospital and he has to return home as soon as he can get a bus. Previously when she had “cut herself” while we were in Georgia I asked him if he ever saw the scars. He said no (this is because there weren’t any) So i told him what any person would and said he was being manipulated and this constitutes an abusive relationship (as if fighting and her hitting him didn’t already.) 

 I am fairly certain that if you end up in the hospital with self harm scars they don’t allow you to have contact with anyone on the outside for 72 hours, I could be wrong, but regardless this idiot was liking stupid white girl tweets the entire time, not indicative of someone who tried to take their own life because their boyfriend has been gone for ten hours. We spend the night at the house we played at, woke up, he was gone. He took his bass with him without asking us, which i understand was his property but i could have easily played the instrument while doing vocals for the remaining days, or we could have taught our second guitarist the bass parts before the next show and played as a 4 piece again. We ended up managing to get fill ins for most of the shows which was insane, performances ranged from insane to “what are you doing” but we were having way more fun without the dude.

We obviously kicked him out of the band soon after, haven’t seen him since. Felt like sharing this story as him and his stupid girlfriend got jumped last night. I smiled so fucking hard about it. 

Ex-Bassist still has 750 dollars that they owe me cause i covered their rent for months while they quit job after job because “i’m just not fulfilled here.” She still spends all day online talking about shit she has no clue about to try and seem cool for like one like per tweet, not that likes matter for shit but you just KNOW she wants them bad. Only reason I know they got jumped is cause she tweeted about it and I lurk occasionally cause obviously i have problems keeping an eye on things i wish would cease being.

Kinda pointless story but mildly amusing, might tell more stories if i’m bored enough, this has been a good time kill
