Peace and love on planet earth???

#The couch pic was yesterday #Lasted five minutes before Silex started smacking Sornette and Sornette gave up #But the bed was today and they spent the Entire afternoon on the bed together #Friendship??? Maybe??? #Sornette #Silex #The last two months have done their best to be as shitty as possible and I'm genuinely not doing good #But these two bring so much joy and comfort every day #Even when Sornette pees outside the box and Silex destroys the wall #They are the best companions #(well wife is the best companion but wife can't work from home all week so ;p)

Everyone’s opinions on brutalism are wrong except for mine, which is “if I have to core one more hole through this god-forsaken cement block of a building that is more rebar than concrete, I am going to start hunting architects for sport”

#have you ever tried coring six-inch holes through ten inches of concrete for eight hours a day five days a week for TWO MONTHS? #be an electrician they said. it will be fun they said. i'm going to bite someone #construction

#protests #france #just me rambling #i'm getting real tired of those posts being like ''in the US we cant protest like the french do cuz we get violently repressed'' #it is undeniable!! i am not arguing with the fact your riots got stifled very violently. it fucking sucks #but we ALSO do!! The french government literally got denounced by the UN for its use of weapons and ultra-violence against protesters #just a couple days ago there was a huge protest against an installation that would ruin us ecologically #in a continuation to the pension protests #the cops fired 4000 grenades in two hours. #several of those aimed directly at protestors. which is illegal and very dangerous and can KILL #40 heavily wounded. two people are between life and death. #someone lost an eye. a journalist got hit by a grenade in the leg and is gonna be out of work for 2 months. #one is still in a coma. it's been five days. he might die. #it took two hours for the ambulance to get there for him cuz it got blocked by the cops. which is extremely illegal. but they're cops. #and this is one protest but it's like that all the time #last week a woman got her thumb torn off by a grenade shot directly at her #there literally is a recurring joke among cops about 'losing hands' cuz of the sheer amount of ppl who got theirs torn off like this #i sympathize with americans your cops are fucking nightmares. #but so are ours. we get beaten up and mangled and killed. but we're still out there #stop pretending we only riot the way we do cuz we have it easy. i'm legit going to kick your ass #i didn't distribute eye drops to my fellow teargassed protestors last week in my tiny ass city to be told we play on easy mode #anyway. grabbing my medic kit and going out to protest again in an hour. what will You do?

I sat down last night to draw a comic, got distracted, forgot the punchline I was going to center the joke around, and ended up just drawing this small Gandalf doodle instead because it was getting too late for a whole comic.

#gandalf #the man the myth the legends #one shiny #my trash #/end classification tags #less than one month of posts left and i still can't give you guys anything worthwhile #and not even a post a day it's just two posts per week #and still all i've got is from the ''oh crap i forgot to set up the queue so here's something i drew in five minutes lol'' category #maybe the joke for this post was ME ALL ALONG :-O

[wickedhawtwexler]

Babel - R.F. Kuang

Short review:

It took me six months to finish this book. I never DNFd it because I did like the characters and I wanted to see what happened to them. This book was intriguing and thought provoking and dealt with what could be considered delicate points very head on and very impressively. The point and subject matter of this book were very well done, my issues with it were more with the story and the writing itself. I understand why the timeline in this book was set up this way, with us starting with the main character, Robin, when he was a child and following him through almost every year of his life until the end of the book, however it took me until the last three-ish pages to understand why. It felt like we would focus on less important years in his life and then skip years while he was at Oxford, arguably the most important of his years in the book. I wonder if the ending impact would had been the same if the book started with his final year at Oxford and we saw flashbacks to his previous years. There were also times we were told instead of shown such as about Robin and his friends having inside jokes and laughing until they cried in the early hours of the morning, but we never saw those jokes. It made the characters fall a bit flat when dramatic things happened. That being said, I did cry at the end of this book and was very shocked by the major plot points. I also really enjoyed getting to see how drastically Robin had changed at the end of the book and being able to see what kind of path he had chosen to take, which could be considered as not the usual path of a hero. The other thing that bothered me was the magic system. This may have been an issue on my part, but it was hard for me to understand how the silver bars worked and predict what the charters could do with the bars to get out of predicaments. Maybe people with more language experience than me could understand it better. Overall, I think Babel is an interesting step into a world of could-have-been and deals with many hard hitting topics very importantly and in unexpected ways.

Rate: 3.5/5

What's your interpretation of the weird/annoyed look Five gets on his face when Tegan announces that she wants to rejoin the TARDIS at the end of Arc of Infinity? I know it was probably meant to be played for laughs, but it annoys me every time i watch that episode and i'm curious what headcanons people have about it.

My favourite thing I've read about it pointed out that the cybermen specifically used Tegan as a weakness against five, that she's what it took to manipulate him (and through no fault of either of them, Adric's death was part of those consequences.) The novelisation really goes in to the descriptions of the doctor transfixed with the blood running down Tegan's chin from her bitten lip, the building tension as the cybermen get closer and closer to killing her and he's shaking trying to hold himself back from admitting his hearts are so easy to twist, just by threatening his friends. (Does Nyssa ever leave the TARDIS when it's on the spaceship? The cybermen don't even know she exists til they come onboard do they?)

As for why he looks so annoyed? hmmm. Does anyone want someone around that constantly needles them? Really, I think pre Arc of Infinity that even though Tegan had chosen to stay, they still had that power imbalance or even just tension between them that she had not come on board willingly. So five is expecting that to be the continuing, I don't know, continuing manner between them and it hadn't been good. It had its moments (mainly in the audios) but as an arrangement it was not ideal as friends to explore the universe together, all that terrible beauty and awesome monsters.

But it doesn't continue on in that manner - oh they bicker and make faces at each other, sure, but Tegan's conscious decision to step back onto the TARDIS irons out those imbalances, removes that bitterness and the past of her aunt's death. So when he makes that wee face, it's in expectation of the previous status quo. And never let it be said that Tegan's one to do exactly what's expected of her.

Anyway I really hope this makes sense and I may add some more thoughts later but it's 1:50 am Christmas Eve and I couldn't sleep for thinking about this.

----

It's 2am I'm back. I feel like there's also this uneasiness in five about tegan, that mirror that no one likes being held up to themselves. Their similarities but the starkly different ways they express them must be exhausting to five. and here she is back again. To push and prod and challenge and be brashly beautifully glorious. wait. that last bit was the two am shipper coming out. Anyway they draw strength and resolve and anger from each other and Tegan was vital to five, from his first moments till his very last.

#again sorry if it's not coherent but it's been a WEEK. and it's still going. #look away if you're not interested because whatever it's my boring life stuff but. worked sunday and tuesday. thursday my boss texted me #did i want to go up to the next largest city flights and accomodation paid and worked for two weeks at their branch of our shop. #(i said no thank you but holy sht.) and that whole day we'd been taking the house apart looking for dads santa outfit for reading #night before christmas to the kids. utterly gone. nowhere to be found. sister said she had one so we were like oof we can relax it's fine. #sister did not in fact have one. so we took the house apart again. still not here. friday i went out and bought the fabric and fur to Make #one (six straight hours work on the jacket alone) and the kids come up to decorate their trees. #oh! and! when i went in to work to buy the fur (i can only purchase stuff of managers it's store policy) she was like. you can't leave the #shop. stay here. and i went no???? have i done something wrong??? but another manager came down and the managers had put together little #Christmas gift bags for everyone which is so sweet because i still feel like I'm there on sufferance even though it's been like 4 months. #but then. seven o'clock or so when i was still cutting up panne velvet i get an email from the boss who offered me the chch opportunity - #he's now quitting his position at our store. two weeks notice. so I'm stressed about that because we had a good thing going where he'd text #me once a week. we'd arrange extra shifts and that was it. what if the new store manager sucks or hates me or something?? #and I've got like five half finished advent fics but i just. don't have the spoons between work tired and c19 brain fog and christmas tired #anyway none of this is about five and Tegan I'm so sorry i just need about ten more weighted blankets on me. #five #tegan #an ask a palpable ask #srsly i love being asked about them or any dw opinions you are so wonderful in my eyes #tbh the advent fics are getting to the point i might just post them all the way through January and when i write little ficlets. people #seem vaguely to be enjoying them but trying to do a December thing was a bit much. #I've just realised this week was even longer. last Saturday we spent the whole day out of town with the kids. and Tuesday we went out of #town to do the stuff we'd planned to do before we had to babysit them on our planned trip day. jfc no wonder I can't brain straight
