alright so capri suns are so good. Like whoever thought putting fruit juice in a squeezable container with a straw that could poke someone's eye out and giving it to a bunch of tiny children fueled by rage and pokemon cards had it right.
Like,
I don't get it. And then even grown up, I am a full blown adult, have been LEGALLY an adult now for a few years and you know what I went wild, thought yeah I'm gonna treat myself today and full on bought me a box of capri suns when I was sick and wanted something simple for my simple minded, half a functioning brain cell, self, and then when I ran out of them because I drank them all because hECK YEAH THEY'RE FLIPPIN AMAZING and life is fantastic I went and bought me another box of them.
You know what's not fantastic?
The package was sealed so completely there was no possible chance of any little gremlins running by and snagging a single drink from it as they ran wild through the store. Whoever packaged that stuff knew what they were doing and made it stupid proof. And I applaud them, 5000%
EXCEPT
When I am sick and feeble and only have half a functioning brain cell, I can't open a stupid box of cardboard to get to my treasured fruit juice designed for children. I sat there on my bed, trying to find the power I need to open my juice box so I can astral plane out of my misery, for like a solid 20 minutes. That box probably could've lasted through a nuclear fallout, I s w e a r.
I almost called it quits right then and there and got some help from my roommates but my mama didn't raise no quitter and by gosh and by golly I opened that box if it was the last dang thing I did. Which it almost was by the end of it
So, yes, capri suns are actually the greatest children's drink to exist and prods my suppressed monkey brain into action, and the packaging company knows what they're doing
Which I appreciate
Even when I'm the stupid in "stupid proof"

"This historical figure who was born as a woman and lived the rest of her life as a man isnt transgender and shes not a man she was an oppressed woman who pretended to be a man in order to pursue her dreams under intense patriarchy" listen i understand what the line of logic here is and i know that applying modern labels to figures who lived and died before these words and concepts were invented or popularized is a dangerous game but if this dude not only lived his life as a man but insisted that he be referred to as a man and went off on people who misgendered him and had an entire love life where all of his lovers would also refer to him as a man and was adamant that his body not be examined postmortem as so not to be retroactively defined by his genitals and wished to still be recognized as a man after his death i feel like at the very least you could respect his wishes to be referred to and seen as a man and leave the 'born female' thing to be an interesting tidbit at most instead of the fact about him you parade around

maybe it's on campaign 3 for not emphasizing it so much beyond frida (though as we're probably about to meet devexian, it may expand in scope), but it astonishes me how no one on any side of any cr meta discussion here seems to remember aeor at all. and when they do, it's this scoffing "well every aeorian deserved their fate" (which.... i have thoughts on. not nice ones. as a texan who hears that one often. and before anyone points it out yes this is a parralel to takes on the gods as well). i wonder how meta would shift if people were (re)aquainted with the extremely prominent fact from c2 that aeor was destroyed, entirely, by every god teaming up at once. c3 adding that half the city was fighting not to anger the gods makes it all the more disturbing. and this impact left exandria in a dark age it still has not recovered from.
i feel that ive seen maybe one take maximum on here that seems capable of acknowledging regardless of your opinions on the conjecture of c3 the gods, including the primes, have in fact made choices & spurred to action before. they exist as more than concepts or guiding voices in the story. their hands have literally molded history in more ways than just creation myth. and their molding, at times, turned into a fist, squelching blood. a fist that punched a city open like plaster.
