Okay but it's super interesting how

Din = Power = Ganondorf

Naryu = Wisdom = Zelda

Farore = Courage = Link.

Because Din, in the hylian creation myth, created the physical world. Naryu then created the laws - gravity, time, etc. And Farore finally created life - plants and people.

Din created the body, naryu the mind, Farore the soul.

And the triforce and its wielders so perfectly reflect that.

Ganon is physical power, he is big and intimidating and he breaks things. He is cunning and determined, but that's not what he focuses on. He is might makes right.

Zelda is wisdom and cleverness. She is stall tactics and information and team work. She is a powerful mage with a spine of steel, but that's not how she'll win. She is the pen being mightier than the sword.

Link is courage and persistence. He is the wild card sneaking behind enemy ranks, always moving, plunging into terrifying situations head first. He's a phenomenal fighter with a keen wit, but that's not what will get him through his challenges. He is bravery not being the absence of fear but the triumph over it.

They sit in perfect parallels to each other.

And ganon is reborn through his body - his resurrection is immortality. No matter how low he is cast, as long as he has a body he can claw his way back. He can cling to his power, build it ever higher.

Zelda is reborn through the magic of her bloodline. It's the accumulated knowledge handed down for generations, the unique power she must master, the skills she must develop to survive and get her kingdom out the other side intact. Even her name, the knowledge of herself, is handed down from all the way from the very first. Her ancestors knowledge of her future presence, her stability, is what gives her the edge.

Link is reborn in spirit. He is not bound by flesh or blood. Just like his wanderlust soul he can reappear in any time or place. His variation, his unpredictability, is exactly how he fights. It's what makes him so hard to pin down.

Ganons need to build strength means he can't chase after link. Links impulsiveness means zelda can outwit him. Zeldas stationary predictability means she's an easy target for ganon.

But the other direction?

Fire melts ice, ice redirects lightning, lightning burns fire.

And that's the very essence of the triforce.

#It's little details spread across the games like this that just makes it work so WELL it's SO COOL #They're all great at all parts of the triforce but they CHOOSE to focus on the path most meaningful to them #And that's literally reflected in their unique cycles of reincarnation isn't that just AMAZING #And that's why the team up is so important! If they were all working against each other they'd be locked spinning their wheels #If zelda and ganon teamed up link would immediately die and if link and ganon teamed up zelda would instantly perish #It's the link zelda team up that means ganon is the one who kicks it #Also the elemental thing was cool but they do jump around a bit. Like wind is there half the time #In botk the gerudo have lightning and the goron have fire. Farosh still has lightning tho and dinraal fire #In ss lanaryu was the lightning and faron had water like its all over the place thematically. And that's when it's only 3!#Don't even get me started on the 5/7 lots notankyu #But that's the most common group and it's also thematically accurate #Fire being the only one able to self perpetuate with fuel. Can be banked up again. Ice compresses with time but needs the right environment #Lightning go boom 👍 you can feel the static in the air but you don't know when/where it'll strike and then it's all over #Like fr it's hilarious zelda and ganon are playing the long game and link runs past eats all the pieces and while ganons yelling after him #Zelda checkmates his king. And nobody can prove she wasn't cheating because nobody was looking lmao #Ah the duality of metaphors #ANYWAY isn't that so neat???#Reason no.372 why rhoam was a terrible king he didn't just screw up he did it ✨thematically✨#If link had been allowed to run off and get dirty and if zelda was allowed to study her interest (like post kingdom fall FOR EXAMPLE)#They'd have won (like aoc) but nooooooo. I've already made a post (or 3) about it lmao I'll be quiet now #loz #legend of zelda #botw #triforce #loz link #the legend of zelda #zelda #loz botw #ganondorf #loz ganon

i am being so brave trying so hard to hold back writing a rant about that 'minimizing narrative noise' comment on totk sage concept art bc its actively flying around in my head like the worlds most annoying fly

#ganondoodles talks #zelda #i have .... thigns to say...............#i need to wait until i get a look at the entire book #and cant go on rants on single comments #then again .... what else is in there .................#i am dreading this thing #like id rather know that there was trouble during development than having a dozen of shitty comments obviously trying to cover up-#-for something- this CANNOT be true #yes narrative noise is a thing that exists- but in THIS game????????????????????????????????????????????????????????#like you basically cut down the already boring plot into its bare essentials that isnt executed well either #and then add confusion and menaingless detailes like the sage helmets “”connecting“” the sonau to the shiekah #when rly it just makes it more confusing bc the hsiekah a prectically gone- the fuck kind of conenction is there #like THAT is what id call narrative noise- weird details that make no sense and arent important #also you cant make a character the equivilant of a blank box and then say 'we wanted them to feel powerful and scary' or sth #BC YOUD NEED TO MAKE THE CHARACTER ANYTHIGN -BUT- A BLANK BOX TO HAVE THEM BE INTIMIDATING #ALSO all the ancient stupid sages do is stand around repeating words like they are puppets- you dont see them fight ever #“intimitadtign” my ASS the useless little knife fake zelda throws at sonia from half a mile away and prob wouldnt even have gotten through-#-her hair is more intimidating than any of the blank box mc sages #youd think they learned their lesson when they made the botw champions DLC bc it fleshed their characters out more and added better-#-shrines BUT NO apparently that was a big mistake huh #maybe thats why every single character is reduced to one boring stereotype or a blank box of nothing in totk #having zelda be anything else but a swooing little damsel waiting for her prince was narrative noise needing to be removed HUH #writing team all fired or what- literally WHAT was going on in there

Here's the thing about the royal family not fully understanding that Wilhelm and Simon were *truly* in love though.

And subsequently, why Wille's coming out to the entirety of Sweden was so so powerful: them not knowing, or simply refusing to acknowledge this, no matter how many times he tried to tell them, actually gave Wille a much higher edge over everyone trying to cover up the scandal, even if he didn't realise this at first.

Every single person had a misunderstanding that this was something he wanted. That they were doing him an obvious favor by helping him cover it up, preparing a speech for him, threatening him whenever he got sidetracked. Or at least something he'd see sense in once he got past that "hormonal driven teenage tantrum" and understand that covering it up was the best course of action. Of course he wouldn't bring the other boy and his feelings into all of this. Simon was just an experiment right? Who'd go so far as to sabotage themselves to bring justice to someone they didn't even love and care about?

And this. this exact misassumption was what eventually brought them all down in the end.

Take August for example. If he had secrets and lies as his weapons and to keep his crimes in the dark, Wille had the truth. A whole truth bomb in the palm of his hand, all this time. And no matter how ballsy Wille was trying to be in that "I'm gonna slowly ruin August's life" mission of his, he was still fighting fire with fire. He only won when he clashed against August as an exact antithesis of him in that coming out speech. August's whole plan was doused only when Wille spoke the truth and refused to play along with his games.

I mean really, had he not done this, what would've happened at worst? August would've.. gotten voted out of being rowing captain?? Maybe he would suffer a bit then, but would it really matter in the long run? August knew that, and so did Wille, deep down, but he ignored that part and instead convinced himself that he was at least doing something to make himself feel better.

Because honestly?!

August never understood, or even cared to! He'd pretend to be sorry whenever needed and go right back to being where he was if needed, as long as he was gonna be king. The moment August actually. genuinely lost to him was when Wille did something not out of hatred for August, but out of love for Simon. And when he did, without having August in his mind, but the person he loved and cared about, he made it impossible for August to go anywhere from there on. It wasn't revenge, it was reconciliation that finally got him. (And simultaneously saved Wilmon's relationship too, for that matter 👀)

This has such poetry in it btw?? I can't properly explain it, but it does remind me of atla and Zuko's arc in a way. How there's a whole world of difference between his firebending when it's fueled by rage, and when it's fueled by wisdom, focus and harmony within the elements. The difference in outcome is so visibly there when the motivation is switched, and when Wille has love and understanding and bravery in his heart instead.

The whole time, the entire Hillerska staff, student body, royal court and royal family and tHEIR ROYAL FAMILIES- *deep breath* WERE AFTER MY BACHCHA had anticipated Wille to lash out for having his royal image tainted and getting at odds with his family but the fact that he'd do it on Simon's behalf never even crossed their brilliant little minds. They had equiped themselves, sure, but never for this >:) Because for all their brains and strategising, no one had actually sat down and thought for once that Wilmon were actually in love. There was a power in it that no one had anticipated.

#like sir. SIR.#did you not consider them an actual threat?! ahhahahh well SIKE #young royals #young royals analysis #wilmon #prince wilhem #august young royals #august horn #young royals season 2 #OH GOAH and now i can't stop thinking about the kind of conversation he's about to have with kristina like #she can scream and trash around all she wants wille literally has the upper hand now omhsgg #they can't touch him?? and to think the way out was there all this time?#august is dead basically the whole country is gonna hype this case up now #the royal familys gotta look nice and definitely not homophobic to the public and wilmon can be together at least for the time being #AND THE TENSION EVERYWHERE #oh god. s3 is gonna be rollercoaster on fire isn't it :'''

something about how jason and piper make leo the best version of himself. the closest he comes to finding peace. and then frank and hazel bring out the worst and most self-sabotaging parts of him. and then jason and piper try to save him and hazel and frank help him die.

#can't even blame frank and hazel because leo was literally tailor made to bring out the worst in them too in ways none of them can control #the fire the dead grandfather thats all nobodys fault they are all looking for their own peace #but jesus christ yknow?#and then percy and annabeth and him #simply do not give a shit #which is fair enough i suppose its all very mutual #leo valdez #frank zhang #hazel levesque #piper mclean #jason grace #its interesting because in trials of apollo the lost hero trio has become the tragedy #whereas in hoo they were the original trio and the most well-suited trio whereas the frank/hazel/leo trio was always going to blow up #bc it was always running on borrowed time the question was just who would pay for it #the c*leo of it all makes this annoying to analyze but i simply do not see it

There's always a slight yearning in the back of my mind wishing I had been born in the right place, time, family situation, income level, etc. to have just lived in one single house for my entire life. Imagine being born in a place that still suits you, even through all of your personal evolutions and etc. The idea of deep familiarity with an area because you've lived and explored it for 40+ years, being encased in a web of memories and connections. Being able to clean out your old childhood bedroom and find personal artifacts, to dig in the yard and remember. I know those lives can still be plenty imperfect, but there's just something so seemingly solid and stable and Grounding about it that I sometimes wish I could have.. (At least from my outside perspective as someone who's moved around a bit geographically and even within the same area, never lives in the same house/ apartment /etc. for more than a few years usually.) Like... having a place that is printed upon, fully your own, rather than chronically a visitor, every thought of a space always tempered with the notion that one day soon you'll have to pack it all up again, etc. There's something peaceful about the permanence.

#I think also because I'm a very nostalgic person - THOUGH not in the way that somep poeple mean when they say nostalgia because I've realiz #ed that to some people apparently it means like.. more of a sad emotional thing? Or when I talk about being nostalgic they say 'me too' and #then describe how they're always depressed dwelling on the past wishing they could revisit it and replaying it and feeling sad and etc.#Whereas for me - it's not in a deep or emotional way at all. It's very detached - kind of like someone who is doing like a scientific #cataloguing of something? I don't feel any remorse or sadness or longing or sitting there sobbing for hours over people/pets I've lost or #etc. It's more like a fun contemplative excercise and extension of self analysis plus just documentation. Like I know your memory fades as #you get older OR even as stuff is actively ongoing humans have terrible recall - even the ones who are less emotional/more focused on #accuracy our minds still twist things or etc. SO I looove to have documentations of everything possible so that in the future I will have #as full and complete of a view of myself as I possibly can. sure the image will undoubtedly be a little distorted but having real evidence #of how something was at a time is very valuable. You look through old messages or letters or something and you always find other alternate #versions of yourself. Not in a worse way like inherently inferior Previous Models Of You who haven't yet been perfected but even just in a #neutral way like 'what they're saying is not a BAd thing but also is not how I would say that today.' etc. ANYWAY I find it really interest #ing to document and remember things and love revisiting the past - not in a sad way - but just like. curiosity. reminiscing and recalling #and filling in gaps. or trying to have the same feeling I felt at a previous time so I can remember what it was. Collecting information for #documentation purposes. Like for example - I would love to go back and tour all of my old childhood houses/apartments. Not to like #sit in the middleof them and cry and go 'ohhh my childhood waughhh' - but literally because I want to take detailed photographs so I #can remeber exatly what they looked like and recreate them in sims or some other digital way. Why? idk. just to gather the information. If #I ever live to like 80 years old and I'm still reflecting on my life curious about the dteails of it. I want to be able to fire up my #ancient windows 10 laptop I've kept all these years and open up the sims 4 and tour my old home with accuracy etc. ??#Not sure why really. Maybe an extension of how I generally care a lot about having an 'accurate' view of things? Like I would rather be #accurate than be happy. I don't understand 'ignorance is bliss' because I would always rather know. I always always in any situation am mor #focused on 'what is the well researched practical truth' than about 'how does this make me feel' or etc. Truth above ALL else even if it #were to make me miserable. Aka why I'm a 'boring' 'annoying' 'UM actually..' type of killjoy lol because it's very hard for me to understan #that some people can enjoy something or have a good time even not knowing the full facts of a situation or etc. BUT anyway. since that is #some core driver of my personality for whatever reason (just the plague of ennegram type 5 perhaps lol) maybe that also drives me to my #kind of minor obsession with like 'I must have a complete view and calatoguing of my life that is as accurate as possible within the means #i have' . Is it REALLY important for me to know the exact layout of on of my first childhood bedrooms? no. materially it does nothing for m #in life. BUT hey. it would make a great addition to the Accurate Life Story Catalogue lol. ANYWAY.. But I think a lot of wanting to live in #one place forever is not just the ease of documentation. but the sense of having a constant. Much of what i crave most in life is stability #& familiarity &routine bc of how my brain works. And it just would feel so good to be Settled. Never uproot again. One little place FOREVER

ah., evil thoughts hour

#gideon shut the hell up challenge #ofc all the fanclub talk has us thinking abt fawn’s (bc that’s who we can think abt bc they’re ours) and how we’ve had it canon the whole #time that fawn v much keeps the sidestep name and their signature in autographs and their overall look #so thinking abt it….. fawn’s villain!rivalry that would prevent them from accepting the fanclub #(they’re flattered ofc but the idea of people finding smth to celebrate in what they consider nothing short of corpse desecration is…..)#BUT. in the moment. just being called sidestep again. giving the same autograph they always did. it’s easy to forget themself #just for a moment. never too long. they don’t allow themself that. they never wanted fans (don’t think they deserve them)#but they know how much it can mean for someone you regard highly to give you any sort of attention or praise #I do think that they P Heavily flinch away whenever any reminders abt them being a villain come up tho. a dog being scolded etc #def only adds fuel to the fire on the ‘sidestep is undercover’ and ‘sidestep is back from the dead Literally’ conspiracies #OH RIGHT ANYWAY. the evil thoughts were the fawn being caught up in being Sidestep (positive) again bc 🥺…

Every time I see bull red son an angel (me) loses it's wings (gets mildly annoyed)

#NOT TARGETED!!!!!#I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH #I HAVE NO ACTUALLY PROBLEM WITH IT!!!!!#okay now thats out of the way #i can ramble #it makes NO sense #his character in the book is one of the few who we get a in depth physical description of and there is ZERO mention of bull features #he looks incredibly human #which we can also use as a reference for what iron fan looks like but thats not relevant here #but lmk realistically takes very little from the actual book #so that doesn't really matter here #what DOES matter is the fact that IF red son had bull features hed never shut up about them #he idolises his father and for demon males less human traits are probably the beauty standard #the more i type the more i think that my train of thought is completely personalised #guys help i think about demon genetics to much i need to reconnect with life #does anyone want me to make a full demon genetis chart that pretty much entirely hinges on iron fan #OH YEAH IRON FAN #SHE WAS A CELESTIAL AND IN THE BOOK RED BOY LOOKS JUST LIKE HER YOU THINK THERE'S ANY ROOM GOR DBKS GENETICS #sighh this is all rakshasi PIF and rakshasa Red Son propergana at the end of the day #or rakshasi Red Son maybe but that would have to be explained in the genetics post #is there a tag limit #anyway tldr the removal of the samadhi fire probably took all the necessary hormones to get bull features #and PIF in the book (and as we can assume in the show) has genetics to strong to let bull features show otherwise #yeah that sums it up #lmk red son #lmk princess iron fan #lmk demon bull king #lmk demon bull family #sorry if literally any of this sounds passive aggressive ik its all in good fun im just a fan of the book

today i discovered there's a pokemon called Klinklang and that is such a funny word it brought me immense joy so thought id share

it’s even better than that!! Klinklang is the final evolution of two other pokemon

the first one is called Klink (can you tell where this is going already? 😉)

then this guy(s??) evolves into… guess what 🥰 Klang!!

so their final evolution is just those two names mushed together, which is both incredibly stupid and a stroke of pure genius that will never be repeated

(also the japanese name is Gigigiaru, which is just a nice word to pronounce 🥰🥰)

also i love the bulbapedia entry

it “may be a combination of klink and klang” be so for real right now

#pokemon names are so silly there’s one called Snom and one called torchic (fire chicken) and one called geodude (he’s a geode. and a dude)#there are literally dozens of stupid names but i adore them all & i’m glad this gen 5 cutie brought you joy 🥰🥰💖💖#also deino. he’s a dinosaur but small. a dino #the japanese & french & german names too are also so fun to compare #sometimes because i can read french i play the games in that to keep my literacy levels up & i’m always??? a wild WHAT appeared???#i can play the games in spanish too now mostly but the more intense dialogue sections take me ages to get through #because i have to look words up. but 🥰🥰 the dialogue can be slightly different in other languages which is really fun #anyway this made me happy to talk about so ty ty 🫂💖💖#anon

I SWEAR I KEEP TRYING TO DO ART BUT THEN SOMETHING GETS IN THE WAY AND THEN I PROCRASTINATE AND THEN SIX MONTHS PASS

#this has been happening for like TWO YEARS BUT I SWEAR TO GOD I AM TRYING.#my usual art motivation (my webcomic idea) has been put on hold for a bit and because of that i forgort... everything #my will to draw specifically #but in my defense i have been writing k*arlach / oc indulgences and i've been VERY focused on finishing it #i also got a marketing manager (my friend <3) to help with advertising my comms and stuff so uh... look forward 2 that #i might need to start posting all of my art on a sideblog so she doesn't have to log into my main though #so there might be some changes #but i promise i want to do art!!!! but there's always something to do first and then months pass :(#or i get the urge to draw and then life is like ''have a cancer scare'' lmao...#(ended up being cancerous actually </3 but because it's skin stuff it was easy to remove)#(but that really took the piss out of me for most of july... not to mention that ffxiv released a new expansion and i have been...#having a good time with my new friends doing content and stuff!) i also made a friend irl after like 3-4 years of total isolation #we feed ants and watch them move around together and comment on their behaviour patterns...#but like when i say this takes literal hours.#we just sit out there and talk about random shit and watch ants walk across the floor. both of us hate ants btw.#like we don't like having them ON us so it's a bit like playing with fire.#but anyways yeah i've also been really low energy recently too bc of the heat and burnout from college...#but the good news is that i'm transferring in fall to a much more relaxing college & courseload!#i'm hoping it'll stop me from feeling so... awful ?? i guess ??#like i was taking classes i didn't need to that were really difficult & punishing #not to mention extremely boring & hard to pay attention to when dealing with literally anything. i did not want to be there.#my next college is much more interest-oriented so i will finally be able to take classes i want to and learn from them...!#and then maybe i will feel a bit more in control of my life / more encouraged to draw #anyways thank u for reading my ramble. hoping it all comes together soon.#i need to do a lot of work but most of it is so i can sell commissions again #but once the karlach fic is done we're so back on the webcomic train !!!!!!!!

Mike johnson has so god damn much blood on his hands, obviously Ukrainian blood, but also plenty of American blood

Refusing to renew something that helps vets exposed to atomic blast and Americans who were downwind of the fall out... it's just sick. I can't fucking stand mike johnson, he's one of the worst scum to ever be in congress, and that's fucking saying something

"Johnson refused to allow House members to vote on bipartisan legislation to renew and improve the program"

Fucking quivering little pimple seems to have a real MO for just wringing his hands while insisting it's not his fault, he just can't do the one fucking part of his job of putting shit up to a vote... oh boo hoo, so sad, he'll just have to unilaterally let funding expire on things instead of literally just putting it up to our elected representatives to see if they want to vote yay or nay

Single handedly make the choices but it's not his fault when they work out how they do

Murderer

#I'm sorry; I both genuinely hate the man and will never forgive him; so seeing this just adds more fuel to that fire #and I'm also genuinely pissed to hear that we aren't gonna be bothering to fucking help out people we fucked over #it's fucking sick #listen; I try not to talk politics too much and I try not to tell people how to vote cause it's not really my business #and cause I don't like arguing with people on tumblr; waste of my time #but for all the dems many many many many many fucking flaws; it's shit like this that makes me hate the gop #every last line about sticking up for rural or poor people or whatever is such a fucking lie #god bless our troops... unless it would cost money to compensate them for making them stand near atomic detonations #at every turn I see fucking simple easy decent bipartisan policy shot down but fuckers like johnson; who is the gop at this point #fuck em; can't stand em #go fucking vote if you can in whatever country you're in; try and get a mail in ballot for your sake #I'm still not gonna tell you how to vote but uh... maybe keep in mind when someone's hands are fucking caked in blood #and keep in mind what kind of company people keep in their political party #fucking murder #cause inaction is murder as sure as if he stood their and kept them from getting treatment directly #removing the funding to let these people get cancers and stuff operated on #it's the same as murder #and again; that's not even going back to him personally; like literally it was just him and him alone #holding up aid to Ukraine for months because he refused to put it to the floor #where... oh look... once it was put to the floor it passed just fine (with a fucking tiktok ban added)#(hate that site but I hate government overreach with this kinda shit more)#one of the few people in this world I think I actually truly hate #I'm never gonna fucking stomach the 'he was so brave for holding a vote' shit lie #bullshit; if he had a spine or a soul he would have brought Ukraine aid to the floor before funding ran out #just like if he had a spine or a soul he'd have brought this radiation victim funding to the floor before it ran out #almost like there's a fucking pattern here of him squirming like a pus filled pimple simpering about how he just can't do his job #can't do the one fucking thing he's supposed to do and bring shit to the floor for a vote #I have more opinions on him; but if I said how I really feel right now I think it would get me put on a list #and... sadly just cause of who I am; if I were in a room alone with him I think I'd just lay into him instead of beating his ass #but he's a fucking monster and reading this story just now... I'm almost seeing red with how much it's pissing me off

idk about anyone else but for me /personally/ assigning any of the wof dragon tribes a single equivalent human culture or accent feels kind of weird or off. Unless you’re like. Specifically from that culture and know what you’re interpreting

like sure the ‘nightwings are British because they’re voiced that way in the audiobooks’ is funny at first but I once saw a post break down the accents by tribe and assign sandwings a Nigerian accent. Which IMMEDIATELY makes the fact that they’re commonly rogues and thieves in the story not a fun cowboy thing but a vaguely racist thing suggesting that all Nigerian people scam and steal, which. Given the ‘Nigerian prince’ thing is already a stereotype, well…-

and it definitely isn’t JUST that, I’m not trying to call a single person out. But these kind of 1-1 correlations lead to results like this 9/10 times and it just feels strange. Just mix stuff together. Mash ideas from different places into one. Don’t make the dragons a 1-1 parallel to a specific human culture because then any story you tell that may connect to a stereotype of that culture will come off really, really bad

#Instead of they have ___ accent #Say. Well their accent is closest to like this one with a hint of this one. And it varies throughout the regions of the kingdom #Because that is not saying something about a specific ‘kind’ of person. It’s just taking your favorite ideas and playing with them #This is specifically why everything in righteous pines has like 2 religions and then random other cultural factors thrown in #+ the source material and stuff I just made up for me that isn’t from ANY culture #Because I am NOT gonna get caught stereotyping a specific group and be seen as spreading hate #wings of fire #also I don’t mean like. If you’re specifically from a culture and paying informed homage to your heritage #I mean just. Like. White teenagers picking random races based on general regions for the tribes #Like I probably would’ve done when I was 12-14. Like a fool #anyway this isn’t really an angry post at all it’s just kind of a vague opinion #I’m not genuinely mad at anyone who does this I’m just like. Wary for them. Like #Look out girl you’re gonna get cancelled you need to be more CAREFUL #Because I’m 90% sure most people don’t MEAN it to be racist. It’s just. Internalized ideas or general assumptions or something. Uninformed.#But you cannot be uninformed or you will get got. Inform yourselves folks!!! Play safe!! With many mixed ideas!#lion’s lair #invalid white persons opinion by the way. I’m downright vampiric so you can entirely disregard this post if that affects its meaning #My icks literally do not matter in this situation. I know that. I’m just ATTEMPTING to read the room #And not hurt anybody #👍?
