I don't think Birth of a Hero Ron and Beacrox get enough criticism.
Beacrox, a 30 year old man, stood by and watched as an 18 year old child got the shit beaten out of him, and instead of putting a stop to it, he marvled at Choi Han's strength and then dipped. Yes, Beacrox's job was just to be a chef, yes what Cale said was horrendous, but he was the adult in the situation, and he watched a child get his ass beat without stepping in.
Ron, the one consistant person in Cale's life, left. Yes, Ron was looking after his son, yes Ron could have left in attempt to protect the Henituse family, the mother fucker could have left a fucking note. He admits himself that he was around long enough to change Cale dipers when he was a baby, and he just leaves without any explanation. Just poof, while Cale is recovering from a serious beatdown. He didn't even leave a postit note sized message that said goodbye!
And okay, you can chalk it up to "Well, they were servants to the Henituse County, they weren't really required to do this or that because it wasn't their job!" And, okay, sure if that's how you want to view it, but then don't turn around and say "Oh Ron sees Cale as a second son." TCF!Ron sees KRS!Cale as a son, the original obvious had much more complicated feelings.
And I'm sorry, the "super observant assassin" didn't notice that the child he was been tasked with caring for for 18 fucking years was acting?! He didn't try at all to, sign Cale up for therapy or maybe, I don't know, talk to Deruth, his boss, about Cale? Ron is a father himself, obviously a good one since Beacrox holds him in such high regard, and yet he did nothing when 8yo Cale showed obvious signs of something going on.
Also, Beacrox was 20 years old when Cale started acting out, he was an adult through Cale's entire start of being "Trash", and he also didn't notice anything. And if he did, he didn't do anything about it.
Completely related, am I the only one that wishes we had the original BOAH to read, to get a better understanding of the backstory and timeline of the original novel?

Talked with @merrymorningofmay about last Rings of Power episode, and it was just cracking up about the siege of Eregion.
Literally, the writing of it is so silly. They made a damn to stop the river? Do they know it doesn't take a day for the riverbed to dry enough to be able to walk it?
Why didn't elves evacuate civilians? Surely a whole realm doesn't have one singular gate. The river protected them only on one side, there were ways to evacuate them.
Speaking of civies. To quote Merrymorningofmay again, the war as writers see it is when civilians are lying on the floor and cry, and the rest are running around in pretty dresses.
If Celebrimbor spent the whole time inside his tower working then plz explain to me why he was dirty and covered in blood. Surely Sauron kept him safe? How did that work?
There are various depictions of war in media, some worse some better, but this was just... Pathetic.
n conclusion, 3/10 only because it was funny.

That newest episode of The Last of Us was something else. I was wondering how they were going to expand out the events into a season without putting mindless crap filler in it. But if that's the quality of the extended material going in. I am fucking extremely happy.
Update: Ok fuck, I wrote that first part before the Wedding day. I am in fucking tears. Christ... That hurt so much to watch.

Gojo- Playing Basketball
Everday at 4 p.m. there’d be basketball practice. And Gojo, though being really good at math, was one hell of a jock. He excelled at the test matches just like he excelled at a math test. He was one of the best basketball players his school had ever witnessed.
You could see him from the little window outside of the swimming pool area that gave a bird’s eye view of the basketball court.
Despite of the others practicing with the same jerseys on, your eyes would be hinged on him. It wasn’t very hard to recognize him from a distance. He was better than all the team players combined. He seemed to have understood the beauty of the game and was able to focus on the adequate movements that were necessary.
If you saw him from the chairs of the Indoor Seating arrangements around the court, you could see his movements more clearly. He played like any determined athlete would. His skills were impeccable. He was focused.
Every movement of his body would splash a hint of passion to anyone who observed closely. The muscle movement of his calves as he ran across the court. Then that of his arms while dodging the ball. His sharp waist he’d show while trying to reach the raised goal in the basket. The sweat dripping down from his forehead towards his sharp jawline and his neck. He’d bite his lower lip once in a while, lick them when he’s thirsty and would then reach toward his water bottle and drink up while still breathing fast. His Adam’s apple moving graciously as he gulps the water down the throat.
And that wonderful, childlike smile, when his team scores, is priceless. It is all art that he is in the court but doesn't have a hint of it.
