I can’t shut up about Polin, but I don’t think I can overstate how important it is to me that they took away the 12 year gap between books 3 and 4.
Colin being only 22, which even by the rules of established canon - is young for a man to be married, is a little detail that is so important to me. He’s literally just a socially adept nerd who rather be talking about geography, or writing, or cracking his little dad jokes with his family. He simply realized he was in love with his best friend and was like “yup, no need to wait around I’ll just ask Pen to marry me.” and that realization made him conscious of the fact that he doesn’t have to give a fuck about what society expects of him.
Penelope being my age, (20) and just getting to be married, happy, fulfilled and realized, while still retaining her youthful optimism is a great subversion of the “shy girl who went unnoticed until now” trope. She doesn’t have to wait around for another decade to gain her personal and professional agency, or to escape an emotionally abusive household, and that is such a beautiful thing to see.
It’s one little change that made such a HUGE difference in how their ship dynamic works, and I for one, love it.

HOW. How can someone blaze a post at me WHEN THEY HAVE ME BLOCKED. I have to see fucking RWBY on my dash and I can't even tell the person who paid money to force this on me to kill themselves. They of course have me blocked because they blazed RWBY at me before and I also told them to kill themselves then but that's beside the point

GOD
this song feels like the most emotional makeout ever done.
every kiss has words neither will ever speak or even dream of expressing the emotions with one kiss just pouring out lust hope romance and need nothing even rushed or just half-fast done just with pure desire and want from the other and soft touches the pair thinking of nothing but the others thoughts the raw emotions flowing through the entire room with no words said and none spoke before or after the dance of tongues softly running along each other and warm finger caresses that gives them the chills no actual moment was more amazing to them than this
just pure need understanding and love never to be forgotten in that room where they both never thought they could ever feel that way about something so simple as kissing and lingering hands

please i love you i'm begging you bring back suspension of disbelief bring back trusting the audience like. i cannot handle any more dialogue that sounds like a legal document. "hello, i am here to talk to you about the incident from a few minutes ago, because i feel you might be unwell, and i am invested in your personal wellbeing." "thank you, i am unwell because the incident was hurtful to me due to my childhood, which was bad." I CANT!!!!
do you know how many people are mad that authors use "growled" as a word for "said"? it's just poetics! they do not literally mean "growled," it's just a common replacement for "said with force but in a low tone." it's normal! do you hear me!! help me i love you please let me out of here!!!

The secret Dungeon Meshi sauce that's getting people to eat better is that it's so non-judgmental. Senshi and the rest of the gang never talk about what not to eat besides things that taste bad and literal poison. They don't even talk about "health" that much besides the importance of a balanced diet. It's so much easier to eat well when you think of food simply as something your body needs, and that it's often worth the extra effort to make it taste good, especially when you understand how to connect "things your body needs" with "things that taste good"

Sometimes I wish we would start calling out the performative radicalism on this site for the poser bullshit it is. "Remember, it's always morally correct to kill a cop!" "Don't forget to firebomb your local government office!" "Wow, it sure would be a shame if these instructions on how to make a molotov cocktail got spread around!"
Okay. But you're not killing cops or firebombing government offices. You are posting on a dying microblogging website to a carefully-curated echo chamber that has radicalized itself into thinking that taking the absolute most extreme position on any subject is praxis but that anyone discussing the most practical way to effect actual change is your sworn enemy. You do not have the street cred OR the activist cred to be talking about killing cops, babe.
