#my idea is to release a book like that

[l-e-morgan-author]

if I started a Patreon/something equivalent (e.g. email list) to release a novel would y'all follow it? with a cost I mean, a low cost? I haven't looked into it to get an idea of pricing but it would be low

There needs to be an "Austen adjacent men" bracket. So many hotties in Austenland (and other properties I guess) and no way to rank them.

it may not be a full bracket but your wish is my command - here are some austen-adjacent men to vote on...

hi mutuals im just curious.

[markantonys]

day 71 of asking why reddit has suddenly become convinced that the 'finn and mat's rhuidean trip are a waste of time and easily cut, and that season 3 will obviously feature him splitting off from the friends he just reunited with in order to spend the entire season dicking around with thom and getting into shenanigans, as that is much more important to his overall character arc than his 2-book waste arc

like there have been SO MANY posts like this lately and all of them are filled with comments of universal agreement! am i having a stroke? what the hell is going on???? i'll admit mat doesn't have a huge amount of specific stuff to do in the waste aside from rhuidean, but rhuidean is crucial to his character and s2 had Mat-Finn Connection Foreshadowing out the wazoo, plus the waste plotline is MUCH more fertile ground for creating additional Specific Mat Stuff and enhancing his character development & relationships with other main characters than his TDR plotline of dicking around with thom is.

So, I can't say I feel much of anything reading this weeks leaks.

I'm not shocked that Shigaraki died, nor would I be surprised if his death is taken back next chapter and he gets brought back to life in some way.

The thing is despite people saying Shigaraki dying messes with the themes of the story the themes have always been more then a little shaky. IDK if it's just a difference in culture, but Hori has a way of setting something up as being a big deal/theme and then doing something that completely contradicts it.

It's really no surprise he might have killed off most of the villains including Shigaraki despite setting the story up in a way where saving villains seemed to be a theme. He did the same thing with self-sacrifice being portrayed as bad, but later showing it as good.

I will say I don't necessarily agree with how some people are framing Shigaraki's death as throwing abuse victims under the bus. I do get the frustration because Hori did focus a lot of how Shigaraki was used by AfO and in a lot of stories that would be used to absolve him of guilt for all the destruction he caused. But Hori never had Shigaraki change his mind. His last words are him continuing to wish he could have destroyed more and wanting Izuku to relay to Spinner he never stopped fighting for destruction.

I think if this had been a more thought out and focused story you really could make it a great tragedy. It feels unfair that he couldn't be saved, that despite Izuku's effort, at the end of the day Shigaraki wasn't able to break away from the destruction he was manipulated and groomed into believing.

In that way I can understand the anger of some fans, because the story is essentially a tragedy framed as a simply triumphant narrative. It always felt like it wanted to have some deep meaning, and always seemed on the verge of it, but never stuck the landing. The one thing I've always been left wondering is: what is Hori trying to say with this story?, and IDK if the ending, given what's on the page right now will really give me an answer.

If anything I think perhaps Hori was trying to say to much at once. I'm sure a lot of it gets lost in translation and cultural differences, still part of me thinks he bit off more then he could reasonably flesh out. Thinking back many writing choices feel like he had an idea or passing thought and added it because it was cool or thought he'd have time to do more with it latter but due to shitty writing conditions couldn't implement properly.

I just looked at the price on the back of a book I’ve had for a bit over a decade and it was four. fucking. dollars. Just four with no taxes. No extra 97cents or something before taxes. Just a round number that you would add taxes to.

I googled the price of a new edition and it was almost thirteen! Not an even thirteen, it was like 12.96 or something. Close enough that it’s basically thirteen but if you’re adding multiple items together to try and get the price on a purchase with more items it would add more confusion.

the trouble with making up a fictional band and asking people to believe they had the genius and impact of fleetwood mac is that when you then put out music for that band that does not have the genius or impact of fleetwood mac well. it becomes a rather big ask i fear

[midnightwind]

latest sketches because I'm not being creative otherwise

haven't drawn Roka or Alyk in a while, old as balls OCs, you have to ask for more on them, I was pissed off when I drew it tho I don't remember why

and then when your friend has a prophetic dream about an OC that doesn't exist, you are honor bound to workshop the idea at least a little so enjoy Lucy, a mage whose magic steadily kills her when she uses it and whose ex-gf decided death simply wouldn't stick if she mulched a bunch of people for her beloved! Lucy is doing her best to figure out if those souls can be released without shattering them now

George is acting like a giddy little kid with all these TWOW mentions...he might really be close to finishing

[aquateenpatrolsomethingshowshow]

On October 20th, 2013, the finale for “Aqua Tv Show Show”, titled “Spacecadeuce”, first aired on [adult swim]

Guest starred Francisco Guglioni as Oglethorpe’s father

Fun facts:

The title is an homage to the 2004 failed ATHF spin-off, “Spacecataz”

This is the only episode to not feature any of the Aqua Teens and/or Carl

The pixelated rescue crew The Mooninites send are rejected/concept Mooninite designs

This is the only episode to feature a new Plutonian; Oglethorpe’s dad

This is the season 10 finale

This was the last new Aqua Teen episode for about a year and a half, before the series would come back for their last season in the summer of 2015

Bored and can't think of much to draw so I drew Joel in the snow

I imagine Cairo is more used to warm weather and he really dislikes the cold and acts kind of moody if he has to be out in it too long

[jovialturtleface]

I'd like to talk more about my characters on here so I thought I'd make a series of posts, uh not like in a row just spread across, about various info of my characters. Character design inspirations, how they've changed and their relationships with other characters.

I'll title these the very creative name: ABOUT

And since the newest art features him I'll make it about Strawberry. As a side note, I may give a character more parts if I have so much to say about them or I eventually end up developing them so far away from what I discussed on their earlier post.

If you don't have the "shorten long posts" thing enabled but you don't want to read about my very cool and possibly bisexy OCs I'll tag all the posts with #Long_Post. Cheers!
