First time playing skyrim. So far I have done the following:

Spent 20 minutes on the character creation screen, as you do.

Got lost in the tutorial because I missed a jump. Ran around for ten minutes trying to find another way before going back and making the jump properly. I might be stupid.

Accidentally picked up a bucket. Tried to drop the bucket. Proceeded to instead mark the bucket as a favorite item. I'm keeping the bucket now.

Broke three lockpicks, which I'm pretty sure is a bad thing to be doing. I think you need those.

Hadvar is my best friend now. We love Hadvar here. Hadvar took many arrows for me also killed most of the enemies while I was being useless and picking up buckets and coins and such ❤️ If anything happens to Hadvar I'm going to call the dragon back and burn down everything.

ok nevermind. just finished the tutorial and Hadvar said it's best if we split up. I see how it is. Fine. Be that way. I'll fight my own frost spiders I guess

(almost) fully independent at clicky and zoomy stuff

this morning i received training to use an electron microscope independently! i'm now allowed to open and close a vacuum chamber on my own and play the video game of aligning everything to make the focus better! it's honestly mostly just clicking buttons in a software and carefully sliding a door open and close lol

in the afternoon after installing all the equipment i'll need in the vacuum chamber i was allowed to operate the microscope on my own and managed to measure two samples. the other seven i'll hopefully manage in the next two days :)

Donnie for sure the second youngest but I don’t think he probably thinks of Leo as older practically. They’re probably only a few months apart at most and I don’t think Donnie would consider that developmentally significant enough to see Leo as a big brother like he does Raph. Leo on the other hand, absolutely views Donnie as a bratty little brother. Basically they’re not twins but still do the twin thing when someone asks who’s older.

Younger: we’re twins it doesn’t mat-

Older: me I’m older

its honestly why i usually like to make their twinship a compromise for donnie's sake. he doesn't really accept the idea of there being a power dynamic between them with their ages (even though there kind of is? raph and leo are in their own little camp separate from donnie and mikey, it's pretty clear by the way raph puts so much pressure on leo in particular) and i usually dont have him bring it up much it at all unless he's thinking more about mikey because i think them having solidarity over having to deal with their older brother bullshit is true and like. genuinely kind of canon? they're so fed up with them LOL

like ngl i actually care so much about second youngest donnie BECAUSE of his relationship with mikey. b team is my favorite thing in the world

(also yes absolutely no matter how small the gap is to me, leo will use EVERY opportunity to hold it over donnie's head. i mean i think episodes like lair games make that clear. when he grabbed donnie's vambrace and held it out of reach in smart lair too LMFAO... genuine bastard older brother behavior)

Have you ever thought of the second half of your drawing with Raven and Phoenix? Reginald having to deal with Matchstick while trying to find HIS agent?

yep things are going great on the other end

the first part

Matchstick is having quite possibly the worst time of their entire life which, believe me, is a HARD bar to pass. shockingly, they’re not handling it very well. Reggie, for his part, certainly doesn’t LIKE this stranger wearing his best friend’s face yelling at him, but he’s really more concerned than anything else

at some point, someone must see yuta's fixation on gojo and ask him if he has a crush. unfortunately the real answer of yuta seeing gojo as a peer who he alone can save from the loneliness and helplessness that yuta is just projecting on him is in fact MUCH weirder and worse than a teen having a crush on their teacher.

In my perpetual spread of Let Trapper Bottom propaganda, I keep waking up more and more to top-leaning switch Hawkeye and I believe that we should celebrate him more often.

Manifesting R.O.B. in Mario Kart 9 today

¿How does I.T go in this universe? The original delightfulls gave 1 and 362 the tracker to track down the real Father. But this ones crave and want his approval more so i don't think they would give out Father's location just like that.

These two questions arrived 5 minutes apart, and it made me laugh! Sorry for the wait, so here's how I.T. goes.

The episode plays as normal, kids tagging, and everything is chaotic. Of course, "Wally" is not involved because, at this point, he's still not into the KND.

Everything goes up as normal, with Father getting tagged, he becomes the new Soopreme Leader and he makes all treehouses made of broccoli. As we see in the show, the Delightfuls are there, but instead of being scared of what is going on, they cheer for Father and want him to succeed.

He turns to them and decides it's time they finally show him how much they love him. He gives them the Code Module and tells them to meet him at the Moonbase OR ELSE.

Again, the episode plays as normal, but the Delightfuls don't make a deal with Nigel and Rachel; they just take them up to Father. In this version, no one manages to make Father say TAG, and he just duplicates himself and tries to take over the two operatives, not caring about hurting the Delightfuls in the meantime.

Rachel and Nigel arrive at the door. Father is behind, but instead of the Delightfuls, we see Wally appear and hand them the Code Module. The two ask how he got there, and he just... shrugs. Rachel tries to understand, but Nigel stops he,r explaining that it's just how that kid works, he appears at the right time and disappears when everyone's safe.

Rachel remembers she saw the kid that time at the Delightful's house; he's the one who fought her!

Rachel: Tell me, what's your name, kid? Irwin: Wallabee Rachel: Wallabee... that's it? Irwin: *shrugs and nods* Rachel: *confused face* Nigel: Yeah. We got used to that. Rachel: You... are probably about to save the whole KND from doom with this action... are you an operative? Irwin: No. But they call me Numbuh 4 at Sector V. Rachel: *looks at Nigel* Nigel: ahahah... y-you know... we always joked that we missed a 4 in the group and he's helped us a lot... so... Rachel:... tell you what, Wallabee. When I'll be Soopreme Leader again, I'll let you in. Sounds good? Irwin:... first, you need to be tagged. Rachel: Yeah, I'll force Father-- wait... how do you know about the game? Irwin: *shrugs* Nigel: Sorry to interrupt, but we need to go. Good job... future Numbuh 4. Irwin: *smiles and salutes before running off*

The episode goes on and ends as usual.

I might need to create a completely new episode for when Numbuh 4 becomes official, because nothing fits.

THE THINKER KNOWS

[fideidefenswhore]

It is interesting that Catherine of Aragon was as strict as Anne Boleyn when she believed that others violated her will Catherine's relationship with Spanish servants is very interesting

Well, if anything Anne would have been at pains to be stricter. Nobody cast doubt on Catherine's legitimacy as Queen of England until Henry did (well, save the Bishop of Tarbes...maybe, it's debated).

Assuming you're indicating the parallel of 'strictness' re: unapproved marriages, I mean, sort of, yeah? I don't think it's a 1:1 equivalency or parallel necessarily tho.

Let's preempt this: among 16c royalty and nobility, ladies in waiting marrying without the consent of their parents, their 'mistress' (at the highest level, the Queen), the King, etc was more than a faux pas, it was taken very seriously, particularly women marrying men that were much more lower status than them. The legal term for this was 'disparagement', and the man in question could actually be severely fined for the offense.

Now, there were some exceptions to this rule, widows, for example, generally had more autonomy, but overall it was a hard and fast rule. It is not palatable to modern views, but their respective reactions are quite understandable in the context of the era in which they lived

That being said...the situation with Catherine as 'Dowager Princess of Wales' in and of itself was a bit unusual. According to her own allegations, her household was kept in relative penury. So yes, Francesca de Carceres had committed an offense in marrying a wealthy banker without the permission of her mistress...however...it was again, an unusual situation. Catherine had apparently not been paid her proper per annum for years at that point, and all her ladies were subsequently feeling the pinch.

So, when I read about the case of Francesca de Carceres, and Catherine's extreme reaction, even knowing the broad context, but also knowing the narrower context, I sort of went...well, yes, she wasn't supposed to do that, but what was she supposed to do, girl?? You weren't paying her (ik this was probably not Catherine's fault, but that was the situation) 😭 Of course she took that lucrative opportunity, and decided better to ask forgiveness than permission.

And if it'd just been left at that, Catherine doesn't forgive her, she won't accept her back into her own household once she's Queen, that would be one thing. But she goes rather further, actually: when Francesca de Carceres, after her rejection from Catherine's household, seeks employment in other royal households, Catherine not only refuses to reccomend her, but exhorts these other royal women to never admit her to their households, nor to ever reccomend her to another, because she says she 'would not reccomend an untrustworthy person'.

So, her grudge against her was intense enough that she potentially, seriously inhibited her future livelihood.

Again, that in and of itself...I mean, it's not especially endearing, but when it's thrown into relief with her reaction to Fray Diego's scandals, it's quite galling. It was alleged that he had slept with numerous women, married and unmarried, his response to his exile from court was to hint at blackmail (his letter to Henry was something to the effect of you don't want to do this, I know state secrets-- ??), and Catherine still reccomends him to her father and claims he's been slandered-- mind, this after he's blackmailed her husband-- and he was the best confessor she could ever have had, etc.

I have my own speculation about Francesca de Carceres. Certain stans in past times have melted down in my inbox and insisted that my assessment of this was unfair, actually everybody loved Catherine, 'if she hated her so much why was she a witness in her favor at the Trial of Zaragoza, hmm, CHECK AND MATE', well...actually, she wasn't. Francesca was mentioned via hearsay, she never testified herself or signed any witness depositions.

I think Francesca de Carceres was compartmentalized by her mistress in the same way Alessandro Geraldini was (speculation). It was their understanding (speculation, insofar as de Carceres, this is just my theory, but for Geraldini there's substantive evidence) that Catherine had consummated her marriage with Arthur. This was anathema to her. If true, this explains the extremity of her reaction (she knows Francesca might bear a grudge in mutuality, she doesn't want her spreading lies-- or, 'lies'-- about her in the royal households of other women).

OK...so onto the parallel with Anne as Queen...

Well, I think the reason her exile of her sister, Mary, for her marriage to William Stafford usually gets a more emotive reaction (besides that it's more popularized in fiction) is that Mary was her sister. She was also a widow, sometimes people point to the example of Henry's sister, but that was a very different sort of Henry, a very different sort of Queen (acknowledged as legitimate, as I said above), but importantly as well, she was a Princess. Henry's 'compromise' could be to severely fine her and her husband (a Duke). Stafford was not wealthy or titled, there was nothing to fine (this was probably why Mary asked, in her letter, for William to be granted some post at court, besides income and proximity to favour, possibly an 'offset' for the offense?), Mary's dower and jointure were not significant enough to fine, her son was already Anne's ward.

But Anne was already disparaged for her 'low birth', for her comportment not being 'queenly' enough. The Boleyns and Howards not only lost a potential marriage alliance to strengthen them, but one of their own had 'married down', which marred their image. Altogether this better explains the reactions Mary cited in her letter (of Lord Rochford, her brother, and Norfolk, her uncle, especially being 'so cruel against us').

And, you know, we don't have the benefit of time to estimate the strength of the grudge. Anne relented enough to send her sister some money and a gold cup, she never allowed her and her husband back to court, but we don't know what Anne might have or might not have done as the years continued, because she was executed not even two years after this banishment.

I suppose the similarity would be how intensely they felt the betrayals due to the intimacies of the relationships. Francesca was to Catherine, probably like a 'surrogate' sister, with her since she was a young teenager, her 'dresser and confidante', there for her pivotal moments, her arrival into England, her marriage to Arthur, her widowhood, her betrothal to Henry, etc. Mary was obviously literally Anne's sister, they had their shared childhood and had been there for the pivotal moments in each other's lives: Chateau Vert, George's wedding, Mary's widowhood, Calais, the coronation, etc.

Working on turning the back room from a house to a home as it were

Wild that there’s no bed in this place, so I decided to fix that for Tye and Eleanor (and hopefully Natah too one of these days…I know it’s copium but they’ll be a polycule in my heart at least)

Zariman mattresses don’t actually have collision so that’s why the bed is part bench, but it makes a nice little frame so it’s alright

No clue what to use for a blanket, the zariman rugs are super grungy and grimy
