#online marathon

Old topic but it was always so crazy to me how people took that scene of Daemon not answering Baela when she called out to him as him "ignoring his daughter's existence", apparently completely forgetting that Daemon literally just came from an incredibly nasty, bitter fight with his spouse. Like a really massive, terrible fight. Him not answering clearly wasn't anything personal to Baela, but that he was just so upset and angry and hurt that he didn't want to talk to anyone at that moment. Which is something I'm sure everyone can relate to and understand but for some reason everyone just loses all their braincells when it comes to Daemon and assumes the absolute worst of him, coming to conclusions that make no sense if you just took a second to think about it.

The 30th Annual Woodland Pattern Poetry Marathon is going on as we speak! My time slot isn't until tomorrow (the Racine and Kenosha Poets hour is between 12-1 p.m. Central Time on January 28), but I'll be tuning in on-and-off for several hours each day because there are so many amazing poets. You can sign in to watch (for free/pay-what-you-want) at the link.

"So, what all are we looking for here, lass? What do you want to take home the most right now?"

In a way, Wilhelm was reminded of his own packing back in Ireland, his preparation for his travels to the States: He remembered walking around his room, his house, trying to think of what he wished to take with him the most. He tried to focus on the important things: Clothes, of course, a photo album, an Irish flag, his mother's tea set, but there were more personal, sentimental items he thought about taking-childhood toys, knickknacks and bric-a-brac, little things he still had an emotional investment in...he didn't have enough room in his suitcase to take it all with him, he knew, but it wasn't for a lack of trying.

"Are these any heirlooms in the house, anything very valuable you want to move out?" June asked, trying to see the situation a touch practically: Given how much time Emily had spent at their home, her own home must've looked quite dark and uninhabited, and so a part of her feared some hooligans might want to break in and try to steal the silverware, so valuables were at the top of the list.

At the mention of valuables, Randall immediately thought of the veil: If there was anything that fit under that descriptor, his masterpiece would be it, and that would be the first thing he'd make sure to grab for Emily.

I appreciate Boardwalk Empire's always paying tribute to classic gangster films; in the case of The Public Enemy, naming an actual character Paddy Ryan, but really, thinking that dropping a flat cap on a short thirty-year-old man lets them believably play eighteen.

I LOVE DVDS. I have all the live action Transformers dvds + the 1986 movie (is waiting for ROTB to come out I think... next month??)

As convenient streaming services are, I will never forgive them for what they did to the DVD and movie rental industry. It makes me sad hearing that houses not having DVD players is a normal thing. FUCK YOU NETFLIX I'm going to keep buying DVDs with funky menus and exclusive bonus features and there's nothing you can do to stop me !!! Anyways, rant over. Any DVDs you have that are special to you?

DVDs are forever!!! They have subtitles! Scene selection! Special features!!! Audio commentary!!! I hate Netflix and Disney+ with what they've done to society and media preservation. However, I do use my parents Netflix while they still have it (I told them to pirate instead but Dad is so worried about viruses and shit.)

I don't think you understand what you've unleashed anon, do you want to see my DVDs?

Too bad. Here you go. (Some aren't in the right spots and the rest of Legend of Korra is in a different room). No I'm not gonna show you ever DVD but try and spot something you might recognise.

My Sonics and Zim collection are very important to me. Sonic X dub DVDs I got as a kid but I also have the Discotek Complete Series Japanese version!

I love my cartoons!! These aren't even all of them! I have Samurai Jack 1-4 somewhere. (Season 5 still pisses me off.) Next time I might go to JB HiFi and get more Nick or CN stuff, whichever is there.

There's also this Yu-Gi-Oh DM boxset a friend in America bought me! Sure, it's dub only, BUT it comes with Bonds Beyond Time Eng and Jpn!!

Something I value a lot though is my Space Ghost Coast to Coast collection and my Brak Show collection!!! Not sure where I'd be without my stupid space friends.

Look, there's a lot of DVDs I find special to me. My Princess Diaries dvd set. My SpongeBob movie dvd. All my SpongeBob DVDs actually. The Rescuers collection. Swan Princess collection. School of Rock. Darkstalkers OVA.

But something I always come back to is....this.

Peak media.

Also hey speaking of Transfomers-

Got this for my birthday this year from my parents.

Sorry that was such a big answer anon, I'm just so passionate about physical media. Thank you for sending a message! Means a lot to me.

Managed to ride some dressage tests before 10am yesterday for the North American Online Dressage Championships we qualified for! Won't get results back for a little while but excited that we get to participate! Honey and I put down the best tests we could considering Florida's horrible heat right now. Just some nice easy going hacks planned for this week and then 2 week vacation for her while I go work💜

This is going on all weekend. So many amazing poets from across the country and the world. You can catch me tomorrow, January 29th, during the Racine/Kenosha Poets hour (11 am-12 pm Central Time). Oh, and it’s all free and streaming via Crowdcast.
