I can fix him

Except he is a beloved 58-year-old science fiction franchise being smashed into the ground for profit and I am a potato

#Star Trek #paramount+ #bring back the shoe string budget and the bottle shows #give us 'filler' aka CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT #don't bring back the 26 episode season but please the 10 episode season isn't enough #give us little legal dramas and silly holodeck episodes #take some risks give us some bad episodes but try something out #and don't cut corners by using AI pay your writers actors and artists for the love of q #idk maybe ask what people like about the older shows and do more of that #I absolutely could not fix him but damn paramount #smdh #idk if he is the best pronoun but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like literally everything else aside, killing off Izzy is dumb for, if not nothing else, the sole reason of wasting their best actor. Like Con is truly just something else.

Absolutely no shade to the rest of the cast (I mean that earnestly. I really love them all) but Con is just built different. He breathed life and love into a character that would not have been nearly as gripping if someone else had played him. His talent is honestly incredible. And not only that, he elevates the scenes of every other actor he’s with. His whole presence brings the show to another level for me.

Like…narrative be damned tbfh. If I were writing this show, I’d do ANYTHING to keep an actor that talented on my show. And killing him off DESPITE it also being bad for the narrative…well 🤐

#mott txt #ofmd critical #ig #Izzy #I still feel conflicted on s2….on a whole I enjoyed most of it #ep 8 was a dumpster fire for me. I understand budget cuts and restraints #but fridging Izzy for the sole reason of aiding Ed’s character development was such a waste #bc it didn’t even achieve what they were going for imo #also. I know I’ve said this before but cmon… #they didn’t even let CON O’NEILL of ALL people have a queer romance on the Queer Romance show like bro #he would’ve ate and left no crumbs. they were scared of his potential imo

[serious-goose]

going from 10 to 8 episodes really does hurt the narrative flow of a show like this

#🔪 at hbo max for cutting the budget #they do well when they have time to develop concepts like this #i miss 22 episode seasons #i hate you streaming #ofmd #ofmd s2 spoilers

How to Stop Worrying and Start Winning.

How to Stop Worrying and Start Winning is a book by Dale Carnegie that gives us insight into how to deal with worry, stories of people who quit worrying for good, and techniques to win in life in the most difficult times. This book literally changed my life because I was able to address my worries head-on and do something about them. Exams are in two weeks…okay, do I get all panicky, or do I pick up my books to study and revise? I am worried about my weight, do I say self-loathing things to myself, or do I go to the gym?

On matters of the future…

I focus on the fact that I have 1,440 minutes in a day to live an amazing life. What a gift it is! I wake up determined to seize the day.

I don’t worry about the next day because as long as I achieve my daily goals, the future will sort itself. The future will morphe into my heart’s desires. In fact, the future turns out better than I expect because of serendipity.

I have two-year and five-year goals. I break them down into monthly, weekly, and daily goals. I try to include them in my routine.

On matters of fear…

So there is a part of me that is afraid of making mistakes and this stops me from trying anything new. Meaning I did not learn nor grow and I will never be good at it. So I would ask myself, what is the worst thing that can happen? prepare to accept the worst while improving on the current circumstance.

I also get the facts of my worry. I determine what kind of worry it is. Is it an action-type worry or an acceptance-type worry? If it is an action-type, I just take action instead of worrying. If you need to accept the truth of the story, then accept it and move on. Do not wait on your worries, it has consequences on your health.

Write down your worries, and make your subconscious aware of them. Decide on what you can do and start acting on them.

On matters of Insecurities…

I have insecurities, I am not flawless but why worry about the fact that I am flat-chested with broad shoulders when I know well that I cannot change it. The best thing I did was learn about clothes and figure out what is best for me to wear. I had “role models for looks” women whose bodies were just as similar to mine and this gave me the confidence to change my wardrobe and invest in my beauty.

I used to have stage fright and I would always avoid situations that required me to speak but in the back of my mind, I always envisioned myself as a public speaker. I was insecure around my peers who were magnificent at speaking. So I joined a club in my school and took up a leadership position and It was hard. I would shake and fidget but as time went on I became confident to stand and give presentations, talks, and speeches. Always using one leap to motivate me to the next one.

To be continued…

Every so often I like to take a look at my more 'prolific' free titles to remind myself that just because something is free and well-known or gets a bunch of engagement doesn't implicitly mean the creator is making bank 😌

"Pay what you want" often doesn't pay at all, so be sure to throw money at the creators who make free stuff that you like!

Let me be absolutely clear -- the problems with Tumblr will keep getting worse if the disabled minority and the trans people and the people frothing at the mouth at the opportunity to yell at a transphobe, keep @’ing staff and the developers on this site, tell them to kys, because in the meanwhile the transphobes and racists and white supremacists will keep using the actual tools Tumblr provides for blocking and reporting, further poisoning the datasets used for moderation, and encouraging the idea that using the official tools does nothing to basically ensure the only statistically meaningful data available to Automattic is poisoned, poisoned all the way down, poisoned beyond usability.

Hatespeech and bias needs to be reported for it to be considered statstically significant to act on from a developer point of view. Suicide baiting and spamming any of the official means of communication will get you eliminated as a spammer, even if you’re peppering legitimate criticism within your ventpost about how you hate the new thing. You are playing the TE/RFs game.

#van stuff #the biggest reason we don't have an easily accessible 'report hatespeech' button is a) because people misused the old one #and b) because it's not satistically significant enough to be the first thing people want to report #this is like. COMMON fucking knowledge that moderation on Tumblr is 99% automated and extremely cheesable #and you now who are cheesing it? TRANSPHOBES!!! #Like this is not even a 'the developers won't care' kind of thing #this is a 'THE DEVELOPERS NEED HARD DATA TO JUSTIFY MAKING CHANGES' #if the ARE actively malicious then the data contradicting everything they're saying will FORCE changes #and if they mean what they say when they say they value the site for its vibrant culture #then giving them hard data to share with unconvinced people signing off on them having the budget to change things will ONLY help #the whole 'let's yell at staff every time anything happens' is a shibboleth #You're all being fucking exhausting #I want to quit Tumblr because if the userbase is gonna be like this!!! #If ALL I SEE for DAYS ON END is 'staff this' 'staff that' #that's JUST GIVING ME WORSE ANXIETY ABOUT THIS SITE GOING DOWN #'this change is bad for disabled users' YOUR NEEDLESS CONSTANT HOSTILITY AND PANIC RAISING IS ALSO BAD FOR ME A DISABLED USER #WHY DO I HAVE TO BE THE COLLATERAL DAMAGE??? #'Oh staff could make so much money if they only listened to feedback' you fuckers DON'T LEAVE FEEDBACK THOUGH #you just @ Staff and think that that's statistically meaningful data they can use #Fuck's sake #And that's not counting all the times staff *did* implement changes we wanted for years... AND YOU ALL STILL COMPLAINED #WE MODDED TAG VIEWING IN FOR YEARS AND NOW WHEN IT'S OFFICIAL YOU FUCKERS DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO TURN IT OFF #Fucking EXHAUSTING the lot of you

sometimes genshin will be doing its gacha thing and or some other general annoying non gacha cringe and it sucks and theres a snoozefest patch and writing that falls short of its full potential and shoddy QoL and an underutilized combat system and when its like that its easy to be all ha ha shit game fuck this company i dont owe em shit but then u sit on it a while calm down and eventually go back to like. the chasm nail and just. listen to that haunting fucking OST and remember how ur breath caught and heart skipped when u discovered it the first time with that same melody kicking in gear only to drill that sucker punch of a wonder in further so that ur stuck helplessly left staring at the scene in front of u for minutes and minutes just. lost in that ambience . And try to remember the last time a video game has so effortlessly managed to instill this completely indescribable feeling in you (on MULTIPLE occasions) and absorb you into this world crafted with so much love and careful attention radiating from its every pore and its like. yeah yeah i know i know . why ive stuck with it all this time . why im most likely not quitting until EoS

#this isnt a 'never criticize genshin or hoyo' obvioisly its just #man theres just something about this game. despite its shortcomings despite the very real issues #like sometimes u see those. haha stipid genshin is just the cash cow for the REAL passion projects and its like #Dude . What the fuck are you talking about???????? #have you SEEN the effort going into this??? the budget????? the love?? the PASSION???? #like are ppl just pretending bc theyre that jaded and cynical from all the disappointments over the years #(which dont get me wromg i 100% get and have felt myself) #or do tjey genuinely think you get a game like genshin by just treating it like a cash cow side project #like this is average rushed p2w product tier???? THIS??? #sure the storys kinda mid even if enjoyable the company side management is. a thing . #theres issues that will never go away but like to act like the developers donr love this game as much as we do is...... #amyway dont mind me im listeninc to chasm ost and it awakemed somethinv in me #the reason i used tje nail as the central argument here is mostly a personal thing btw #like for me personally that was one of the most vivid moments i still remember. and chasm in general #like man. no need to defend the game when it fucks up anf falls short but is there not . so much to love #genshin #rambles

izzy isn't going to die

#izzy hands #ofmd #My source: lots of people are predicting he will die. and so far the fandom has been wrong about like everything this season lmao #but I've got a 5 page essay in my mind about Izzy as a character and why his death would be a detriment to the story #and especially towards both his and eds character development #Something about Izzy being reluctant to accept community & kindness in S1 #only to accept it in S2 after a suicide attempt and then die because of it is fucking stupid #if anything it drives home his point in S1 and also goes against the message of 'kindness' that the cast and crew have mentioned the show i #I'm just saying with the way this season has been paced due to both budget constraints and only being 8 episodes #they're going to have to do some serious heavy lifting to make izzy dying feel justifiable after this season #This might be a Makora moment but I literally don't care if it happens I don't see it #the crew and especially Izzy is what carries this show for me. I honestly don't know if I'd care to watch the show without Izzy in it lmao

ok update on atla netflix: started final episode, it opens with the attack on the north. its pretty freaking great. frame for frame accurate w the show, and (other than some so so costuming choices, or a few fight-bending scenes with lower budgets) the only changes so far have been for the better

its- wow

its good

katara needs to go apeshit have have some more backbone fr, yue's costuming is god awful im so sorry amber midthunder queen you deserved better, and the overall customing for the northern watertribe is giving lowkey halloween/live action fmab but everything else??? top tier

#atla #atla netflix #atla live action #atla liveblog #avatar #honestly most (most.) of the plot changes the liveaction has made? I'm not mad about #the majority of them i both understand and LIKE #in fact in some of the places they've made changes i think they should go further but that's just me #now #there are some things i would like to edit #like 76% of those things are costume and character-design related #but honestly those are my biggest issues so far I'm okay with a lot of the plot changes #sorry not sorry but i hope their new seasons get double the episodes & bigger budgets & better choreographers & better customer designers #okay yeah the writers need to step up the character development for the main trio fr ESP for katara but honestly the overall writing is oka #COULD BE BETTER though but i get not ever episode can be life changing #and as long as they follow the OG pattern of each season getting more and more developmental and meaningfully complex / deep #IM GOOD with it #i think a lot of people are judging this s1 of the live action with the s3 of the cartoon which is NOT a fair comparison #s1 of the cartoon WAS pretty childish for the majority with the exception of zuko's plot and the finale #each season it grows in depth and the childishness of the overall story and theme diminishes and yall gotta remember that

A new video diving into Saints Row's development dropped, featuring an anonymous Volition dev

#saints row #saints row 2022 #its mostly accurate... #there are a few details missing (like DS' involvement in the overall development) #and the budget this is a bit misinformed (the game did earn back its budget and a good chunk of it wasn't even used by Volition) #but the whole thing about people leaving is true... That's why they INSTANTLY dropped any idea of doing a Saints Row sequel after GBX got t #in fact lol we were suppose to get a Year 2 DLCs (another 3 expansions) but Volition decided just... not to do them #sr #Youtube #srr bts

No matter the difficulties, no matter the circumstances, no matter the uncertainties, my habits will always be there for me. Early morning workouts, smoothies, exfoliations, journaling, manicure, pedicure, affirmations, meal prep, naps, skin care routine, Sunday resets, yoga, pilates, books, and meditation will always keep me sane in the ever evolving world and that’s my strength.
