Mapping control in Syria at this exact moment of disarray is unrealistic, and any attempts are likely misleading. But here's our new map showing the last day of resistance before Assad's govt collapsed.
Concise summary of events and detailed timeline included.

Countries at war with Japan
n 1904, Montenegro declared war on Japan, the country that was nine thousand kilometers away from Cetinje, the Montenegrin capital. Unbelievable, but true! The Montenegrins declared war on Japan to support the Slavic brotherhood, namely Russia, which had entered the war with the Japanese. In this war Japan defeated Russia spectacularly and the Russians signed the capitulation and the war ended.

the thing with the teenage girl weirdness is that i would agree some stuff is very uncomfortable to read. but he’s trying to make you uncomfortable. that is something that comes across in his actual books but it’s not something he has figured out how to get across in this worldbuilding style he keeps trying out. which, that’s all his own fault im not even defending him on it im saying it sucks, there’s some good ideas especially when you really engage with it in the context of the circular storytelling of the whole series but the uncomfortable feeling you get about these characters come from a REALLY different place when you’re reading the actual story. i like a lot of the f&b characters and i am a twoiaf defender (yandel ELITE gyldayn my ENEMY) but nothing there can hold a candle to a single chapter from the pov of any woman in this series.
#i also think there’s less of this weirdness with characters he had mapped out the conflict earlier (bc he had to)#aegon’s conquest in general is really solid. not a hard and fast rule tho the dance characters are undercooked.#but like you compare the strongest stuff there to the strongest stuff in asoiaf? come on.#getting on my soap box

In a fic i won't start posting until vampfrin is at /least/ 90% done, I like this dialogue note I have for after Nille finds an amnesiac Sif and brings them home:
Bonnie: "can I name them?"
Nille: "THEY AIN'T A DOG"
#and unlike usual i think I'll end up writing this fic for a while in the bg before i start posting#rather than posting the next chapter soon as im done like usual#w/ vampfrin im comfortable in that genre im confident in my ability to tell a cohesive story posting chapter to chapter with minimal (mostly#) edits done later on#for the time traveler!sifdile au I'm not as confident#i dont consume a ton of time travel work and am not as used to the beats and expectations#plus time travel feels like the kind of trope where it's “you are going to have failures so pick where you want it to fail”#bcoz of all the potential paradoxes and conflicts that come with that kind of premise#especially with how i plan on mapping out Siffrin's part of the story where it will have to be explained#why they were sent to work with Odile in the first place when Wish Craft was able to be used to help him travel in time#without her invention#among other questions but some I'll have to learn to be fine with just going “dunno i didnt see a need to focus on that”#plot holes don't always wreck a story soemtimes it's fine to guide the reader around them#but I'll need to figure out how to ensure certain plot holes don't get too big to go around

I am in the world’s stupidest meeting
#it’s about a project I haven’t been supporting at all#I got added last minute#asked if I needed to be on it bc it conflicted with two other meetings#one guy told me no#my boss asked me to cover it for him#now we are doing the tiniest most confusing changes going back and forth on these maps#and I truly don’t know why I am here#it is so dumb#personal#I need to pee so badly#and I only have a half hour break#before my next meeting (which I am going to have to jump from halfway thru bc they scheduled it over another more important meeting)#I am so tired#I have two tasks I need to do before my last meeting and they’re just not going to happen

Our Blue Hours - The Bulletin Board
In my inner eye I see the fic that I wrote so vividly, and I wish I had the time and artistic talent to draw literally every single "scene" in it, but alas I do not.
New chapter of my Ghost/König fic should be up now. (Read on ao3)
this was so fun to draw, especially considering I looked like the Pepe silvia meme while storyboarding the fic;
#ngl i traced that european map and I somehow still managed to mess up borders in a way that would create at least 17 new conflicts#art#my art#ivansbadart#digital art#fanwork#könig#cod mw2#fanfic#fanfiction#ghost x konig#itivan#bulletin board#our blue hours#ghost#ghostkönig#koenig#ghost x koenig

Silent Witness to a Vanishing Land
The weight of silence is heavy. A genocide is unfolding in Gaza, and the world is watching—some in horror, others in indifference, but most in silence. How is it possible that, in an age where information travels faster than light, where injustice can be exposed in real time, the response remains muted, the action absent? Palestine was once a whole country. A land with its own people, its own…

I have a cold, my eyes are watering, and I hate that this comes easy to me 😔
~
“Mh mh,” she hums in confirmation. He doesn’t need to know the details, or he might lose motivation to cooperate… or worse, ask questions. So she asks: “And you? Planning to go to sleep?”
Hector stammers an answer, but he’s not fluent enough yet. In time and with her help, Lenore is sure, he would feel right at home in Styria. So she forgives him when, placing his hammer on the forge and turning his body towards her, he switches to his native Greek: “Right now that you have come to see me? It would be rude. It’s getting easier, staying awake at night. Perhaps my time in the cell—”
He stops dead in his tracks. His heart skips a beat. Lenore cocks her head, intrigued by the split second of dread settling in his eyes.
“No, nevermind. I was already used to it when I served Dracula. I’ve been living with creatures of the night longer than I realized,” he smiles, eventually.
The poor thing. To think that her sisters were eager to let him suffer in that hole. But he’s not completely broken: Lenore has hope.
“Good boy, living the vampire life,” she purrs, walking to the nearest chair in her best posture. “Your German is getting better too.” That is only half a lie: she can’t expect a human to learn another language in a handful of weeks, but she is always one to praise effort. Maybe if Carmilla followed her advice, she wouldn’t have made a fool of herself. Then again, Lenore wouldn’t have met Hector, so perhaps she should be grateful for her sister’s stubbornness.
#i edited an earlier part and added that hector tried to speak in german but obviously he can only say simple sentences#then again hector (a greek person) is apparently extremely fluent in romanian and it took him a year or so#while the super intelligent and studious isaac still speaks with an accent#and like i know that i shouldn't care about these details - it's not worse than the japanese not-twins speaking romanian to alucard#when they shouldn't even be able to pinpoint wallachia on a map#but accents exist in this setting which means that people *are* speaking a non-native language#so! hector is apparently a genius in languages here! and so is carmilla who doesn't sound like schwarzenegger!#at least with lenore it makes sense that *she* the alleged diplomat would be a perfect polyglot#that's why i like to imagine that she started to teach hector german the second she enslaved him#romanian could be the vampire lingua franca because of dracula's influence but obviously he'd need to feel at home in styria#and maybe it was even a fun bonding activity. more fun than the bed ones for sure :)#and it could contribute to hector feeling conflicted about his owner. so she cares about his wellbeing and goes beyond her job#then why did she do what she did?#argh i hate having so many ideas for something that doesn't deserve it 😭#anyway i hope lenore's constant self sucking isn't annoying but that's how she comes across to me

thinking abt tjat question about how jax reacted when he first arrived to the circus being answered with just “not well” paired with it being stated in ep 2 that ragatha took a while to fully adjust
#i have an entire lore for their friendship mapped out in my mind#to put it simply i think at least in terms of how they cope and deal with things theyre very similar#they both have the ‘if i just keep smiling and not thinking about it everything will be okay’ technique and it’s expressed in complete#opposite and conflicting ways between them#i think they know the other better than either of them even knows themselves#and almost their entire reason for tolerating eachother and liking eachother sometimes is theyre incredibly traumabonded#but also they Can have fun together. like it’s possible#tadc#ALSO i think. aside from caine who is the mandated ringleader#jax n rag Are like the caretakers of the circus. like they’re the ones who keep all the others regulated. idk just they#give camp counselor sorta feelings 2 me#j

i think the other thing people dont understand about modded minecraft when complaining about how mojang is "lazy" is that playing a heavily modded minecraft is very equivalent to trying to cooperate with a very easily spooked horse that's first reaction to being startled is kill.
also sometimes you wake up and the horse is inside your bedroom. with no clear sign of how it got in there. you blink and its outside again.
#woofing barking woofing#the amount of times my entire world has corrupted to absolutely random things#i have to backup my save religiously bc of it#one of my mods adds these like flying dragon mount things#and for some reason. i have found a bug. where it conflicts with a completely different animal mod.#where SOMETIMES when i am sitting on it it will randomly get leashed to a random bird entity and get dragged halfway across the map#towards the bird#thre is absolutely no reason this should happen. these mods have 0 relations.#i have submitted bug reports to both mod creators and they are completely baffled#it only happens to birds

just remembered that dr who episode that wanted us to sympathise with fucking oliver cromwell as a Nuanced Figure WHILE ACTIVELY doing every single war crime in ireland... because at least he Had Conviction... HUH what the fuck was that about
#admittedly not a specific conflict i know a lot about#outside of the iconoclast and the survey map#and how infamously brutal it was just in general#but absolutely fucking wild to write a story in which we're meant to root for one of the most infamous war criminals of history#as well as watch a companion go into battle on his side and be like. cool with that.#a#i can respect overthrowing the english monarchy but that is the only point he gets

ten billion years to get the debug mode of SF2 to work and it's this beautiful, zero context creep-ass screen.
#sfc guide was like 'you need a turbo controller for this' and they're wrong but i get it the inputs do suck#the first game at least had barebones labels for each options#like please i just want to take some screenshots from the game i don't wanna play vanilla sf2 ever again#once you've seen a world where karna's map sprite doesn't suck you can't go back#i miss final conflict that's one of the most beautiful debug modes ever

Fucking. I have of course remembered where all my pre-collapse-of-my-self-esteem dragon age rpg notes are living.
Maybe I will look at them.
#granted a lot of them are dinner party seating plans#a tip from#me to you#if you end every session on a chilly dinner with your hosts and switch up the seating every time#you WILL cause delicious conflict#esp if you use tradional dinner party seating rules (m > f > m > f#and split up couples)#and use them for evil#whittering#the rest of it is maps and like. rng roll tables
