Can’t wait for the succ s4 trailer to come out so I can chew drywall over the 2 to 3 second clip of Tomgreg looking at, speaking to, or god forbid touching each other.

doing a direct comparison of the roys and the lannisters doesn’t work because while cersei is obviously shiv coded to a t you assume jaime is kendall coded and tyrion is roman coded or vice versa. but this simply isn’t true. tyrion is doing double duty being both kendall and roman coded (an incredibly difficult task) meanwhile jaime is languishing being con coded.

funny ao3 moment
•nonprofit =/= "people running this site get no money for doing so"
•nonprofit leaders regularly make 100k-200k or more per year
•the largest segments of ao3's budget review are incredibly vague. also, $0 or incredibly small portions of the budget regularly go into more clear areas such as "con outreach" and "legal advocacy" (both of which had $500 and $5k built in but were never used because ao3 does NOT spends a vast majority of the money they raise, which is put god knows where)
•over $300k (400k in 2021) regularly gets budgeted into the vague category "Archive of Our Own"
•"Unrestricted revenue" in 2020 was reported to be nearly $900k at $890,948.22
•despite the latter point, ao3 has been in beta since 2009. 13 years and counting.
•costs to host and maintain a .org website are INCREDIBLY low, with under $30 for 10 years.
•barely any of the categories with a metric fuckton of money allegedly going into them have any specified listed publically as to what they actually are.
•as someone who's worked for a nonprofit since age 16 with a salary of $16/h (with a president reported at making $229,332/yr) while volunteering for no pay at another, who's managed and worked on budgets which have been available for public scrutiny, and who's lived with parents who are active in advocating for humanitarian business practices under capitalism, this whole project is the funniest scheme i've ever seen.
•kudos to ao3 staff for continuously scamming tens of thousands of fandom moms and for serving as the elon musks of terminally online fanfic geeks for over a decade via making the bare minimum of a user-friendly fanfiction website 🙏

Did some more hierarchy math!
CGKU Roman/Shiv = canon Kendall/Shiv + canon Roman/Kendall (high status fighting dogs)
CGKU Connor/Kendall = canon Roman/Shiv (occasionally useful standbys)
CGKU Roman/Connor = canon Kendall/Roman (challenger for top boy)
CGKU Shiv/Kendall = canon Kendall/Shiv ("good person" foils)
CGKU Roman/Kendall = canon Roman/Connor (nonviable threat)
CGKU Shiv/Connor = canon Roman/Shiv (in/out but not chosen)

Strong independent woman? More like pathetic dependent woman who’s flaws counter out any good qualities she has twice over. I’m still talking about Aqua. I love her so much.
That’s something I really like about the Konosuba cast in general. Found family without the wholesome. They never leave the first town, they’re constantly in debt, everyone knows them as those weirdos who cause problems, but they kind of love each other anyway. They’re found family because they all suck so much they can’t survive without each other. They aren’tin a position to reject each other because of their weird or unlikeable qualities. They’re the same. You just kind of accept it. And isn’t that what family is?
I’m not wording this right, but they’re just such normal people. They like cool stuff even if it’s seen as cringe, they can’t help but blow their earnings on nice alcohol, they work a regular job because adventuring doesn’t really pay. They adjust to each other. Kazuma taking Megumin out to do her explosions, Aqua and Kazuma being the same fucking person, both irritating each other and understanding each other because of it. Kazuma not wanting to fight the demon king because it sounds like a lot of work. They accept each others weirdness out of necessity. That’smy type of found family.
