I uh- just finished sunrise on the reaping. I think I was actively sobbing for the last hour. Suzanne Collin’s you’ve done it again. You broke me

#it’s so fucking good #the DREAD I felt as when haymitch came back to 12 #like I KNEW what would happen but I didn’t know HOW and it was DEVASTATING #this book adds so much to the whole series #context and character #I have such deeper understanding of haymitch now #I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to hug a character more #AND THE EPILOGUE #this book man. what the fuck #sunrise on the reaping #sotr #the hunger games #echoing thoughts

What was that you said about memory? "A monster," was it?

#iwtvedit #iwtv #interview with the vampire #louis de pointe du lac #armand #lestat de lioncourt #daniel molloy #anyway obviously these are at different periods and contexts in their lives but nonetheless #i'm fascinated by the different versions of characters we see filtered through who is telling the story at that moment #how they remember themselves and how they remember others #and the gaps in this set are just as interesting! season 3 maybe i can do a follow up #how does lestat see himself. how does he see armand or louis #how would daniel see him? etc

was talking with a friend about how some of dunmeshi fаndom misunderstands kabru's initial feelings towards laios.

to sum up kabru's situation via a self-contained modernized metaphor:

kabru is like a guy who lost his entire family in a highly traumatic car accident. years later he joins a discord server and takes note of laios, another server member who seems interesting, so they start chatting. then laios reveals his special interest and favorite movie of all time is David Cronenberg's Crash (1996), and invites kabru to go watch a demolition derby with him

#dungeon meshi #delicious in dungeon #kabru #kabru already added laios as a discord friend. everyone else in the server can see laios excitedly asking kabru to go with him #what would You even Do in this situation. how would YOU feel?#basically: kabru isnt a laios-hater! hes just in shock bc Thats His Trauma. the key part is kabru still says yes #bc he wants to get to know laios. to understand why laios would be so fascinated by something horrific to him #and ALSO bc even while in shock kabru can still tell laios has unique expertise + knowledge that Could be used for Good #even if kabru doesnt fully trust laios yet (bc kabru just started talking to the guy 2 hours ago. they barely know each other)#kabru also understands that getting to know ppl (esp laios) means having to get to know their passions. even if it triggers his trauma here #but thats too much to fit in this metaphor/analogy. this is NOT an AU! its not supposed to cover everything abt kabru or laios' character!#its a self-contained metaphor written Specifically to be more easily relatable+thus easy to understand for general ppl online #(ie. assumed discord users. hence why i said (a non-specific) 'discord server' and not something specific like 'car repair subreddit')#its for ppl who mightve not fully grasped kabru's character+intentions and think hes being mean/'chaotic'/murderous.#to place ppl in kabru's shoes in an emotionally similar situation thats more possible/grounded in irl experiences and contexts.#and also for the movie punchline #mynn.txt #dm text #crossposting my tweets onto here since my friends suggested so

getting blazed as fuck in public, thinking "boy I sure hope no one knows how high I am right now", and then having the jumpscare of your life when duolingo gives you this notification

#for context it says ''how high your streak is!'' but it crops at just the right point in the text and i misread it every time 💀#duolingo #unironically though i really like the characters in the duolingo stories i think they're fun

I just got a wild and long ask about Character AI and my only comment is that I still hate generative AI with a burning passion. It's bad for the environment (Generative AI uses a LOT of power and water to run), trained on stolen data from artists/writers without their consent to make cheap knockoffs, and isn't as fun as bothering my best friend to roleplay some stupid characters in our DMs.

While on the subject of Character AI, I've seen people make AI bots based on me. I do NOT consent to have ANY bots made to imitate me or any of my characters. There are no exceptions to this rule, I will report these bots and get them taken down. It makes me incredibly uncomfortable that people are making bots based on me and my personality. I'm a real person. Please treat me like one.

#cherri.speaks #For context on the ask: it was trying REALLY hard to defend the use of Character AI #Asked if I still felt the same about AI at the end and I do #FUCK AI

some of sophie devereaux’s most iconic & hilarious lines, in my humble opinion:

"what kind of world would it be if everyone who committed a silly little crime went to prison? complete madness!"

"EX art thief! EX!"

"is this about fear of the russian mob, or fear of intimacy?"

sophie: "i don't have a lot of rules in this world. three, actually - don't count the money till after the con, know when to walk away from the con, and-" nate: ""the gambler"? you're basing your life philosophy on a kenny rogers song?"

[after everyone’s been making fun of her accent in the rashomon job] "i hate you all."

sophie: "nate, i have to say, of all the deceitful, unprincipled, corrupt things i've done in my entire life - nothing is as bad as..." nate: "politics?" sophie: "i can’t even say it."

"i start telling the truth all day, i stop being sophie devereaux."

nate: "you’re not supposed to root for the criminals [in movies]." sophie: "always root for the home team."

"darling, nobody knows all of [my aliases]. not even me."

[about gifts for the team] "oh, i wouldnt say ‘bought’, exactly… we, ah, obtained."

"i am a grifter. if i’m doing my job right, then the mark just… [clicks tongue and mimes turning a dial] …turns off the alarm for me."

sophie: "pack your bags everyone, we’re going to make news!" [walks away dramatically] nate: "yeah, she’s walking into the closet."

[having been shot] "you wanker!"

#for that sophie devereaux appreciation. i know im late shhh #leverage #sophie devereaux #sophie devereaux leverage #leverageposting #oh also i feel like i cant add it w/out over explaining but that scene in the homecoming job where she does a truly awful audition for a #soap commerical and then tells the casting directors that 'peggy killed her first husband' lmao. peggy being the character in the commercia #but since peggy is the name of a whole actual character on leverage. that wouldnt make sense w/out a bunch of context #but her delivery of that line is absolutely hilarious. peggy KILLED her first husband!#love whenever she says a line thats so ridiculous that everyone else in the room is just like. 'ohhh my goddd.'#eg the 'fear of the russian mob or intimacy' line. everyone else is like 'fuuuuuck'#absolutely iconic to me that she copied kenny rogers lyrics and apparently thought nate wouldnt notice #her and eliot are both so dramatic lol. she refuses to even say the WORD politics and he claims watching her play was worse than torture.#levcountdown

ive definitely talked abt this before, but i literally cannot relate to the posts that are like "ohhh you guys ship them romantically when theyre soo much more interesting as friends". i contain multitudes. i think they are best friends. i think they are lovers. i think they are soulmates in a way that cant be categorised. these statements dont conflict.

edit: reblogging privileges revoked because im sick and tired of people misunderstanding what i was talking about + the constant "you should be friends with your partner" comments. the fact that youre conflating real and fictional relationships is concerning 👍

#tell me youve never seen veth brenatto and caleb widogast interact ever without telling me that.#and by i think theyre friends i think theyre lovers #sure i mean at the same time but i also mean separately #like #you dont have to believe one thing abt a pair of characters #you can change the context of their relationship as many times as you want #and the holier than thou I Am So Much Better Than You Shippers discourse is honestly so grating.#'but it waters down their characters!!' translation: i dont like when people play with my toys wrong >:(((#we go on and on about people mischaracterising our favourite blorbos in the same way we talk about like. domestic terrorism.#calm down. unfollow people. curate your dash. dumbass.#charlie.txt

there's an interesting thing rtd said from the commentary about the "real mom" line:

i get not liking the line but like. it's an intentional mistake and an intentional character choice, and something we'll return to in the future, and that seems like important context to have when talking about the episode.

#ruby's life just massively changed and it's not like she's rehearsing this conversation; she messed up/said something she didn't mean #AGAIN i'm not saying you can't criticize this decision or disagree with it but i think it's important to have this context #that it's an intentional choice on the writer's part #and not a reflection of the character's or writers' real beliefs about adoption.#doctor who #ruby sunday #fifteenth doctor #delia.txt

“this episode could’ve been an email” WHY DO YOU HATE STORYTELLING SO MUCH!!! WHY DO YOU HATE WORLD BUILDING AND GETTING ANSWERS AND EXPLORING CHARACTERS!!!!

#not to be a total bitch but some of u guys are absolutely watching the show wrong and should be embarrassed #this episode and its reveals absolutely would not have hit as hard if we just saw them as a b-plot to another episode #we needed to see cobels hometown destroyed by lumon we needed to see her grief over not seeing her mother before she died #we needed to see the quiet moments so those reveals actually hit how they were supposed to!!#you cant have the reveals without the context surrounding them!! without the context those reveals would mean nothing!!#ur allowed to not like an episode but acting as if it was 'filler' or 'pointless'-#-when it expanded the world an important character and our understanding of WHY severance even exists is wild #harmony cobel #severance #severance spoilers #morty talks woah
