Episode: breaks the mold and stars to go surreal, flips the script, plays with the timeline, generally confusing
Excited me to me: I'm gonna love it aren't I

I don't have much of a say on Dusthides but I wish people would stop straight up lying about what the staff has said about ancients. They did not say the point of ancients is to break the mold, they said due to not having to fit apparel on them they can break the mold, not that they will every time.
"Our main goal with ancient breeds is to release them more regularly than we do modern breeds." This is the point of ancients
"Since they don’t need to wear apparel, ancient breeds also allow us to break the “One head, four legs, two wings, one tail” template. For example, dragons like wyverns, multiple-headed dragons, drakes, and more!"
'Allow us' gives them the opportunity to, not a promise to always do it. They also mention terts in a similar way and clearly don't always go wildly linebreaking with ancient terts
Do I think ancients SHOULD break the mold? Absolutely, I love funky dragons like Aberrations and Banescales, but don't make up something for them to have to always follow and then get mad when they don't, that's just bad for you

For something a little different than my usual virtual photography, here's my project for the Horizon Creation Celebration hosted by @horizon-events!
I'm really happy with how it turned out - and I'm excited to see everyone else's creations! More info below the cut ↓
I had this leather bag that I found at a thrift store, but it had somebody else's monogram on the front that I never liked. I always planned to do something about it - and I thought adding the medallion from Rost's armor would be the perfect project. The stitching of the medallion required the most work by far, but I also added a little Nora-inspired feather-and-bluegleam charm to the strap.
I didn't buy any supplies for this - everything was sourced from things I'd already collected (...hoarded?) in hopes of using them in a project someday.* The medallion uses reclaimed leather from an old purse, some blue cord I'd saved from... somewhere, and red cord of similar provenance. A stiff piece of plastic from packaging serves as interior support, and a strong magnet is currently holding it to the bag. I may attach it permanently, but I didn't want to yet in case I decided to use the medallion somewhere else!
All the feathers were found on the ground - there's an obvious jay feather (Steller's jay's in my neck of the woods), a white feather (most likely from a gull) that I colored with alcohol ink, and what I believe is a pelican feather - you can barely see it behind the purple one. The cords holding the feathers were all from my stash as well.
The "bluegleam" is a quartz point colored with glass paint. I'd had an idea for sculpting and casting the bluegleam cluster Aloy wears on her Frozen Wilds armors, but I wasn't able to get a finished product I was happy with. I'm not giving up on it, though - hopefully I can manage it someday!
*Which, honestly, is a miracle. I finally used stuff in a project! See, keeping interesting things is more than just adding to clutter!

Any sort of bad relationship will have lasting effects on you but bad roommates arguably have the most specific lasting effects on you. I took my socks off because it's hot af in my old apartment building and before I went to bed I picked them up and put them in my laundry basket. And then proceeded to say, out loud to myself, "oh look at that. I brought my dirty socks to the laundry basket instead of leaving them on the floor in the middle of the living room. Was that really that hard, dickhead?"
My brother in christ I haven't said a word to that asshole in over a year

Rewatched the Breakfast Club and I'm genuinely curious how there has never been a remake to it?? Or is it like universally known as something that must not be trifled with?

there’s just something about modern day carl who isn’t quite all there and constantly blurs the lines between psychopath and slightly unhinged…that i absolutely eat up.
like when he crushes, he crushes hard. in his mind half the time, he’s already dating his crush which as you can imagine presents a problem within itself, especially when said crush is already in a committed relationship. 
throw in married negan with carl’s infatuation and you’ve got me hook, line, & sinker.
