Understanding the Difference Between nVARCHAR and VARCHAR
Introduction Hey there, fellow SQL Server enthusiasts! Today, we’re diving into the world of character data types, specifically nVARCHAR and VARCHAR. As someone who’s worked with SQL Server for years, I’ve come to appreciate the importance of understanding these data types and how they can impact your database design and performance. In this article, we’ll explore the key differences between…

texas is hell oh god
#young the giant was great but oh wow the crowd sucked and it was ALL hets#also navigating is so hard and driving on the 75 lane roads is so ridiculous and everyone drives aggressively#sergle.txt#i've never been to such a straight venue before the people were HOSTILE when you try and move through the crowd#and they were hardly dancing / screaming / losing their shit AT ALL#people just standing with their arms at their sides#or even better. the groups who are actually facing AWAY from the stage the whole time to take a series of pics and tiktoks#of themselves at the show. but not actually even looking at the performance#really funny stuff#i have never gotten so many dirty looks lmao#i wish young the giant would come to okc it would've gotten so much rowdier here i promise#you really wouldn't think there'd be any difference in all between texas and OK but over time i have felt.#like ok is friendlier. okc is honestly very faggy also for being a red state#i've been to texas before and the autoheart show was good since it was a small ticketed venue and not a#Music Festival Audience (tm)#i think this being AT a music festival slanted the audience considerably but still. i thought people would be having more fun lol

Hi! Quick question - when submitting propaganda, are we only submitting things from the movies in which are scrunglies are…y’know, scrungly? Like take Claude Rains for example, is he only restricted to gifs of him looking like a homeless dude in Moontide(1942) or can we submit like polished headshots or whatnot? Just thought I’d ask beforehand! I’m so stoked for this poll!!
The polls are about scrungliness, not hotness, so please submit propaganda that you feel conveys scrungliness. Generic hot photos won't be boosted because this is not a hot tournament.
With that said, please be considerate of how you're framing scrungliness. I'm going to post more about this tomorrow but some propaganda submissions had a troubling habit of conflating difference with scrungliness, and it really bothers me. Like in this ask—be careful about how you're throwing the word "homeless" in like it's shorthand for weird, ok? Being homeless is just...being homeless. It doesn't make you weird or strange and it shouldn't be used that way. The casual tone some of the submitted propaganda had toward class/race/disability has really bothered me and I'll post a longer discussion of this before the tournament starts.
#asks#not yelling @ you anon but some of the propaganda i reviewed really crossed some lines for me.#scrungliness is a performance. a performance that's comic or strange or funny in an intentional way. it's not just...existing as a person#i have a lot more thoughts about this but i want to give this the full space it needs in a real post#anyway tl;dr please be considerate.

DMD boys can't be normal around their crushes, they have to be like "we should get married" after knowing them for two weeks.
#zeenunew#they both have no chill.#and like. i think the reason why they work is related to why people doubt them.#because obviously fan service is part of the game#but its not the entire game. at some point they stopped playing by the rules.#and at first i was skeptical of all the over the top gestures and whatnot.#but upon further consideration im pretty sure that the reason they work#is because theyre both that 'loud' type of bf.#like you know that one couple in highschool that were always so obnoxiously together#the kind of couple to get joint Facebook accounts#that's them. the flowers and the showmanship may come across as performative to some#but i legit think thats just how they flirt

This part focuses on Quincey in particular instead of everyone, "Quincey raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her intently", and I wonder if it connects with what he had said before: "And I promise you, too, that I shall make all certain, for if I am only doubtful I shall take it that the time has come!" Because Quincey is the one who always clocks on the situation at hand first, and patrols for threats (and if he spots one he shoots first asks questions later)
He does clock things very fast and takes action just as quickly. When he's facing the right way.
But in this scene, our favorite Texan isn't looking the right way or even reacting safely as much as he is quick about it. Even if his reaction was entirely innocent surprise, the fact that he made clear how ready he was to serve Mina's euthanasia request--seemingly with more readiness than even Dr. Jack Malpractice who must 'steel' himself to the idea--has absolutely stuck in Jonathan's mind.
Hence Jonathan death gripping the kukri as Quincey gets (to his eyes) the wrong kind of interested.
The whole story could have gone very nasty very fast if Mr. 'You've yeed your last haw' Morris had made a wrong move at that moment.
#I don't know about the rest of the room but if I had been sitting in there I know I would have been sweating a flood out of stress#I am mentally editing my view of the cast as-is and electing Arthur the default 'Guy who is actually clocking the Jonathan situation'#because for all that Quincey is observant and fast#he is not pinging all the red flags; not enough to keep his peripheral on Mr. Harker#and not fast enough to match speed with the guy who almost split Dracula open like a loaf of bread#Arthur 'Only Proven Reader of Characters Pulling a Performance' Holmwood doesn't even have a real 'act' to read here#Jonathan is radiating ready-to-murder-to-guard-my-wife vibes and seemingly NO ONE ELSE IS PICKING THEM UP#Art: 'Hey. Hey is anyone else seeing this? Anyone?'#Jack: 'Of course! I recorded every second of the dreamy manfulness uwu'#Quincey: 'Nothing wrong with a man keeping his weapon ready at all times c:'#Van Helsing: 'While we must be so cautious in our consideration of decapitating and impaling dear Mina to spare his poor ears I have full#--trust in our good and dutiful friend Jonathan :3'#Art: ...#Jonathan: 👁️👁️🔪#Mina; blinking in Morse code: ('Please keep things chill please please please')#Art: 'I will go throw some money at people about this I think. And take a sedative or three.'#anyway#quincey morris#jonathan harker#mina harker#dracula#re: dracula#dracula daily

I love insulting hotaru and making fun of him but I’m also like OUGHH MY SHAYLA when I think about how he wakes up early to take photos and how he babysits his best friend’s daughter and that she adores him and that he’s good with kids and will stop what he’s doing to pet a stray cat. He’s such a horrible nasty little goblin creature he’s such a cynical unpleasant bastard but the moment he isn’t being observed he is so. He is so indescribably painfully raw and lovely. I don’t capture the immensity of his resilience well and that’s my own shortcomings as a writer but Hotaru is someone so genuinely alive and an open beating heart of a person. It’s like as soon as he’s not observed he’s incredibly kind. He’s the reverse of people who pretend to be nice but are really shitty. He pretends to be shitty but isn’t even nice. Is just kind. Sadao when I get you. Sadao when I get you for traumatizing this lad.
#ooc.#psyche.#hotaru is so lovely and careful and considerate#I need his ass to stop performing what he remembers of his abusers

To say she's a Diva in the most literal terms is an understatement, but in this case, this seems like the most innocuous thing Patti LuPone has said all week.
#the show is objectively extremely loud and it shares space with another theatre housing a quiet and intimate play#making sure sound design does not affect another show's performance is a perfectly reasonable thing to do#asking the show to do so in a private request is not unreasonable#if the show had refused that too would not have been unreasonable#sending flowers to thank the stage managers for being considerate of the show next door is a gesture of goodwill#the booth already has to deal with the fucking pedicabs blasting that fucking song along the northern wall along the right orchestra

On My Knees
Look down on me, oh, don’t be shy!
Both of us know exactly why!
Put me down – or allow ME to!
In my rightful place! Below you!
You don’t ask, but I deliver!
From now to always, forever!
Like it or not, I’m on my knees!
Just for you! So, love me more, please
Lower on my knees, verse by verse
Is it for better, or for worse?
Is it by my hand, or by yours?
That I’m grovelling, on all fours?
Do you love me, or what I do?
You adore me! Is that not true?
You love more than just servitude!
Right? Is that not right to conclude?
Can you not see, my bloody knees?
Do you not care, for begs and pleas?
Apathy? Hatred? Ignorance?
What blinds you to my performance?
Closer to the ground, with each verse
Is it for better, or for worse?
Is it by my hand, or by yours?
That I can’t help, but be all yours?
All your wants and needs become mine
With my own, I would surely whine!
And we don’t want that, do we now?
Of course not. So let me just bow!
On my knees – begging for a treat!
Look at me – or let our eyes meet
Some attention – is all I need!
Look at me – do I need to plead?
Just for you, I write every verse
Is it for better, or for worse?
Is it by my hand, or by yours?
That somehow, this farce still endures?
#Haters (my bestie) will say that this poem is/sounds kinda manipulative#after careful consideration: The haters are right#none the matter#Best enjoyed when read with a performative and pompous - yet desperate voice#you can do some dramatic waving around with your hand too#i did (and shattered a glass while doing so)#anyway#i hope you like it!! thanks for reading!! mwah mwah#poetry#writing#poem#poems on tumblr#poemblr#original poem#signed; fa

emma when she sees a character who is forced or pressured into a role: 🩵🩷🤍?
#head empty heart full of love#was going to try to describe it more but after consideration i both cannot think of the words and have decided that they are unnecessary#like. yeah that’s very transgender of them to have to perform a character just to live their life#and this can go either way also. either having to act as someone they aren’t#or having to perform who they are/want to be in such a way that no one suspects they could be anything different

love the implication that the podsquad just stumbled upon the fact acetone numbs their pain and then by the age of twenty-six they were all morphine addicts
#like- they really just chug that stuff with no considerations right?#like you can say Mikey did some lab things- but he didn’t perform any long form studies that’s for sure#Max dies at 30 cause of liver failure after surviving healing a dumbass planet#roswell new mexico#rnm#max evans#isobel evans#michael guerin#pod squad

#landoscar#sorry I just needed this on my blog again bc it’s so overlooked#Oscar’s had the craziest initiation into McLaren and getting to know Lando#and he’s clearly a guy more about actions than words#and I think it’s rly taken him aback how hard Lando is on himself#and how Oscar awkwardly laughed when Lando said lack of talent bc he assumed it was humor#F1 drivers aren’t usually this complex and Oscar is such a Normal BlokeTM#so seeing him throughout the season showing up for Lando even when his own performances didn’t go so well is just#it’s sweet and considerate on a level I really love#and after Oscar himself beat Max in a sprint he knows Lando isn’t fully satisfied coming second even though it’s SO impressive#so matching out there brushing past everyone to congratulate him like this after his own P10?#god sorry to ramble I just really like that#Instagram#mine#landoscar lore

From TVLine
Emmys Twist: Dept. Q Enters Drama Series Race at 11th Hour, Potentially Upending 2025 Contest (Exclusive)
Michael Ausiello
June 6, 2025
Did Netflix just throw a grenade into the Emmy race for the second year in a row
TVLine has learned exclusively that Dept. Q, the Matthew GoodE-fronted Scottish thriller that dropped May 29, just two days shy of the eligibility cutoff for this year’s Emmys, is being submitted in the Drama Series categories. The acclaimed nine-episode mystery from Queen’s Gambit auteur Scott Frank enters a crowded field that includes Severance, The Pitt, Andor, The White Lotus, The Last of Us and Netflix’s own The Diplomat.
If all of this sounds vaguely familiar it’s because just one year ago Netflix similarly sent Emmy handicappers heads’ spinning with the late-April release of Baby Reindeer. Richard Gadd’s searing, semi-autobiographical dramedy — which appeared on the kudos scene a scant one month before the close of eligibility — went on to essentially sweep Limited Series categories at last September’s Emmys.
It remains to be seen if a similar fate awaits Dept. Q, which earlier this week hit No. 2 on Netflix’s consumer-facing Top 10 chart and boasts an impressive 94% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes (its critical score stands at a strong 84%).
Dept. Q, based on the book series by Danish writer Jussi Adler-Olsen, centers on a cranky Edinburgh detective (played by Good Wife alum GoodE) who sets out solve a cold case involving a missing prosecutor (played by Queen’s Gambit alum Chloe Pirrie).
In addition to possibly playing spoiler in the Outstanding Drama Series contest, Dept. Q is poised to be a contender in the acting races as well. A Netflix rep confirms to TVLine that GoodE and Pirrie will be competing in the Lead Actor in a Drama Series and Lead Actress in a Drama Series categories, respectively. The show’s supporting cast — which includes Boardwalk Empire vet Kelly Macdonald and Game of Thrones’ Kate Dickie — is equally as formidable.
Matthew was nominated for an Emmy in Outstanding Guest Actor in 2018 for his portrayal of Tony Armstrong-Jones in The Crown season 2. 🙌🏼🙌🏼

How does one properly cook a tarantula??? I'm sorry that just snatched my attention SO fast I'm very curious.
Okay so glad you asked, more people need to know this. The problem with eating tarantulas is that the hairs are still effective even after death, so you basically put them directly over fresh embers or an open flame and burn them all off. I would do that for about two to three minutes, rotating a few times so you cook it evenly. After that, enjoy! Make sure to use some kind of condiment though, preferably a spicy dipping sauce in my experience.
#asks#lady answers#tw arachnophobia#tw animal death#im not tagging this as extensively because i would perfer it stay out of the main tag#also want to be considerate of the scared of spiders crowd#but yeah!#thats real genuine advice on how to cook a trantula from someone whose eaten them before#perform at your own risk and obvs dont eat peoples pets

the fact that of the high cloud quintet jing yuan is literally the only one that walked out the shitstorm that was their downfall in-lore impressively drama-free and with his professional and personal reputation intact is very funny to me when juxtaposed with the current state of what one could maybe very charitably call... volatile discussions relating to his kit in the more "meta" circles (in quotations bc the credibility of ppl spewing this stuff as fact is. Well)
since his release this man hasnt escaped the doomposting and being powercrept allegations and solo calcs taken out of context by random people and content creators flaming it further getting from the usual mid allegations straight up to a reputation of being spoken of in a manner youd think hes literally unplayable so fast its like hes literally rent free in these peoples heads 💀 physically cant keep his name out of their mouths and i guarantee 99% of these ppl never even considered pulling him
like i dont even have jing yuan and ik hes perfectly fine lmao. he has some issues with LC options and certain scenarios can hurt his performance more than most characters (+ lack of content favoring true AoE in general) which can feel bad to play but ppl are being absolutely ridiculous about him its hilarious
#also fu xuan likely solving his issue with CC coming up soon but ppl refusing to even take it to consideration#whereas their perceptions of seele powerlevel literally being based around running bronya/SW as BiS supports#also like at least jy CAN run a f2p LC like fucking look at blades p2w ass. bro said vow or pay up but no ones complaining abt that#ppl when kafka wants high speed investment and invested team for good performance: aw ur sweet#ppl when jing yuan wants a properly invested support core and speed tier for LL stacks: hello? 911????#rambles#gaming tag#i think a meta rant belongs there too lmao#yes am a tryhard#hsr#jing yuan
