Running joke in my workplace that I can never go a shift without getting hurt in some way. And it's kinda true, I get hurt so often. Yesterday I ALMOST made it but near the end of my shift I caught my arm on the door knob and it hurt very much :(
Today tho I did not get hurt!!! Which is noteworthy bc i was putting all my weight into trying to wedge a big knife into a giant wheel of parmesan cheese and I was Painfully aware of how easily I could fuck up and very much hurt myself lol

So if you had to order them whats the biggest to smallest let downs of lo? What has potential vs just being a crap plot point?
I'm REALLY bad at ordering things from biggest to smallest/worst to best/etc. so bear with me, but my personal list from smallest letdown to biggest letdown would definitely be:
5. Hera and Hades' affair. No 'potential' here, RS just shouldn't have done it. It casts way too many fucked up implications in Hera's characterization, from how she calls Minthe "nymph trash" to how she forces her own dreams and preferences on Persephone. She's always got an opinion about Hades' relationships, which would have been fine if we consider the fact she's the Goddess of Marriage and Hades is the only unmarried King, but now that we know they were in an affair for hundreds of years, it makes her opinions look even more mean-spirited.
4. The actual romance. There's no 'romance' in LO, it's just fluffy vignettes that Rachel thinks quantifies an entire plot but the reality is, Hades and Persephone are just not interesting characters and fluff doesn't make a story. So when they're together, it makes for a very uninteresting romance, as well. At least S1 had some amount of romantic/sexual tension, there is none of that in S2 onwards because it's just Hades and Persephone playing house but never bothering to actually get to know each other. Now that they're rushing into marriage it's just... blech. I couldn't be more disinterested in the marriage of a couple that Rachel's been writing about for five fucking years. I feel nothing towards them and that's the worst crime a romance can commit because it breaks my number one rule of storytelling - don't be fucking boring.
3. The Assassination of Demeter. The fact Rachel couldn't give an ounce of respect to the original myth that her bestselling series is based on is so goddamn disgusting, honestly. It goes to show how little integrity Rachel has, that she'll appropriate and gentrify another culture's religion and myths for her own personal monetary gain. Same goes for Webtoons as a whole. She writes this Greek myth comic as if she's ashamed to be associated with it, she wants all the fame and money without any of the responsibility or discipline. Demeter deserves better.
2. The Kronos fight. Lost potential. Not only did we not need some big MCU fight between Persephone and Kronos (this isn't an action comic) but even if we did have to have one for some reason, it couldn't have been, y'know... better? Why was it treated as a big joke? Why didn't Kronos use his powers? Why did it come out of nowhere and get resolved in a single episode? Why was the extent of his attempts to harm Persephone so nerfed? Answer: because Rachel doesn't know how to write action and she didn't want her precious self-insert to get an owie. Take this as a heads up/warning: I torture my characters. So I hope you're ready for the Rekindled versions of these characters to get HURT. 1.Persephone's act of wrath. So much lost potential here to characterize Persephone in a way that could have been more empowering or otherwise interesting. This is honestly the biggest thing I'm gonna be trying to revitalize in Rekindled and, full brag, I think I'm the perfect person for this task because I've been spending well over 10 years writing characters like this.

'Molluck is enjoying his time at the Yaymans.'
Just a random sketch-like Molluck thing I did to practice anatomy, lighting, background and perspective stuff. I feel like it's been like a decade since I truly drew something to practice anatomy... I haven't truly practiced anatomy for so long... I tend to just draw and use references when I need but don't really do any practive stuff or studies, that's what I mean. I feel like I truly need to practice more drawing since I feel like I know nothing about anatomy, lighting, colours or perspective stuff...
I have been wondering if I should start doing proper traditional stuff again (I have so much traditional art supplies, many even unused, mostly bought by me...) or/and buy something proper digital art stuff since I'm drawing with a computer mouse and it does restrict me in a certain way, I cannot draw as naturally as I could. My self-hatred has made me feel like I'm just wasting those art supplies if I use them but they are actually wasted when I don't use them. Same thing is with that digital art stuff since I haven't felt like spending money on that stuff, felt like I only draw crappy stuff... I don't even know which one would be better, a drawing tablet or a drawing screen. I had once a crappy drawing tablet for a short time and I didn't really like it but I also have drawn some stuff with an iPad but with a crappy touch pen, so it wasn't ideal either... So, yeah, I don't really know which one I should even choose.
I feel sorry for being like this since I do know what it ain't nice to hear an artist calling their art crappy but I'm so used to feel like so, I suffer from severe self-hatred, for no reason... Since a child, I have heard compliments about my art but it seems like my self-hatred or perfectionism or something has just strongly disagreed, so my self-confidence hasn't truly grown... There somewhere it still touches me to hear if people enjoy my art since it's something unexpected for me. I only wanna be honest and I don't wanna pretend to be any better artist than I actually am.
I'm not totally sure of how to draw Molluck's body but I'm trying my best to learn it since he has such a beautiful body... I just don't get enough of this Gluk... I don't really have much time to draw or any other free time stuff but I just wanted to draw this to admire his body, once more... Yeah, too thirsty for him to let this be... Yeah, like I have said, OWI succeeded to create my 'ideal man' I didn't even know about until I got into him... But yes, I still need to practice drawing him... And yes, I do think that pink suits Molluck!
I still don't know what to do with my art but well, I publish this like this since well, this is just a random practice thing, a bit WIP too since I just don't feel like spending more time on this, too busy for it, need to move on... I wish I had more time to draw so I could truly improve my art... I feel like I'm kinda stuck since I haven't truly practiced for a decade... Just drawn and trusted my eyes.

My doc ock designs for my little spidersona universe (takes place in the same universe as my Batman and dr strange universes, for fun Ofc)
A little more info about him under the cut!! (TW for mentions of experimentation, abuse, intrusive thoughts/mental health and duress)
Ok so, Dr. Simon Octavius. I based his outfit design off of Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock the most, but I also took inspiration from a few other designs in comics, and from my own universes’ Spider-Man and such.
Here’s his deal: he isn’t a doctor. Not like, a scientist doctor or a medical doctor, but he does have a doctorate. He’s got a doctorate in business and a masters in finance & accounting.
How did he end up being doc ock then?? What?
He was the tax preparer and accountant for a large share in the Osborn-Wilkins Industry. Works for a very expensive and very lucrative accounting firm and is employed through them to represent a very particular branch of the OWI; the Biomedical // Biological Engineering department. He handled all of their paperwork and fundings through their accounts and investments, and was very good at his job.
That is, until he noticed money going missing. Now, usually a sleazy white collar accountant might be willing to overlook certain things, especially in an economy and society with superheroes and villains, but he didn’t. He asked questions, and ended up finding out exactly where the rabbit hole led when he trailed the money that was missing to a large-scale embezzlement operation that a lead developer and researcher had been involved in, the same secret program that was developing the radioactive spider that bit Dorian— was also dabbling in telepathic user-controlled bio-weaponry. When he found this out he attempted to report them for this— only for the program to find out and silence him before he could.
Doc Ock is the result of a seriously flawed “study” they did on their newest “voluntary” test subject: and one and only Simon D. Octavius was implanted with a neural device which used his brainwaves to pilot 4 mechanical arms. The shock his body underwent caused a great deal of issue which lead to the use of radioactive material to further along the process and mutate his genetics to better fit the machinery, causing him to become a mutant much like Dorian (Spider-Man).
At first he had full control, however the mental and physical stress from the abuse and torment he went through under duress from the project and scientists he once worked for caused the system to collapse in on itself a number of times. Before long, it began acting out on the intrusive thoughts Octavius had begun developing, coupled with the AI learning cycle it had been programmed with, leading it to develop its own mind; one that was highly violent, dangerous and volatile. He could not stop them now, and was often at their beck and call, trapped in a cycle of violence.
The arms end up breaking him out quite violently, and the mutations of his body cause him to secrete a venom with similar potency to many octopus venoms, designed to paralyse and trap their victims. He is at the will and mercy of these arms, often half-sedated himself as the arms work.
In many ways, he is a direct parallel to Spider-Man. Since they both have mutations from the same lab-grown psychos, some of their abilities are similar, including the venom which they both utilise (albeit Dorian’s is different in function) The difference being Dorian was able to maintain and control the mutations within himself whereas Simon is battling a machine which reads his mind and acts in a sporadic and unpredictable way.
Eventually, a long-standing rivalry between Spider-Man and doc ock ends when Spider-Man discovers his anti-venom ability is highly effective against the mutations provided by the scientists to Simon, causing a shift and disruption in the compatibility of the arms and his body. While it cannot cure him completely, Dorian was able to flush out his systems entirely with an anti-venom concoction made from simons venom (a skill which he had honed while making his own anti venom to combat his own venom) and by pumping it through his system effectively shut down and paused the arms system entirely, allowing Dorian, a scientist with experience in systems and programming, to dismantle the AI and relinquish control back to Simon completely. With a little work, they were able to take the arms off entirely, leaving only minimal damage and permanent fixtures to his body, while still allowing him to don the arms and become doc ock willingly now; something he utilises for good, as Spider-Man’s right hand and man in the chair.
Spider-Man and doc ock have a very uncle/nephew or father/son style relationship and they’re very dear to me anyways yeah

iwbft – ghosted: a Bonus brief summary of my annotations
all highlighted quotes: 91
· ouch/ow/owie: 5
· real/felt/relatable/so true: 4
· ☹/☹☹/☹☹☹: 4
She said Shrek and Fiona, and then told me she never wanted to be famous. — the double life thing babeyy
“Jimmy,” he heaves out, and I feel a stab of panic in my chest. — just hearing ur friend's name shouldn't be enough to trigger panic unless u already know something is Very Wrong . at which point i feel they should've pushed for further help instead of finishing out the tour
“We can’t leave Jimmy out.” Lister stands shirtless in the middle of the room and spins around on the spot. — fuck yeah trio tingz :')
It almost makes me laugh how polite and casual Rowan manages to sound, despite the fact that our best friend is missing. — IT'S A DEFENCE MECHANISM!!!!!
I only wonder how much of it is my fault. — none of it bb dw :( he is Not With It enough to be thinking abt anyone but himself rn
“But I can’t drive.” Rowan stares at me. “I thought you had lessons.” “I only had three lessons.” And then I got bored, or tired, or busy, or all three. — ... adhd lister btw
Why would he do this to us? To me? — i think jimmy's dependence on rowan is more reciprocated than he realises
If we weren’t in a famous band together, I’m not sure whether we’d still be friends now. — this rly hurts my feelings and it hurts more bc he isn't necessarily Wrong i don't think
“You do know I can play eight instruments, right?” “But not the drums, huh.” Rowan folds his arms. “You will never let me live that down.” — LISTERROWAN BESTIEISM BANTER BABEY
“But you think I’m an idiot who has nothing intelligent to say.” “I don’t think that.” “Yeah, you do. You’d much rather I was the one who was missing right now.” Rowan doesn’t respond. We both know I’m right. — WELL MAYBE BUT U DON'T HAVE TO TELL ME THAT. I DON'T WANNA THINK ABOUT IT.
“I wish you wouldn’t—” he begins but is cut off when his phone buzzes. — i hate that the phone gave him a get out from being open n sincere w lister :^(
“That’s a Southeastern Railway train,” says Lister instantly. “You can tell by the seat patterns.” — [freddie mercury voice] auuuuutism auuuuutism i want to ride my autism (note: this is summat @to-grill-a-mockingbird says and now i can never get it out of my head)
“He needs a night off.” "A night off from … what? His entire life?” Piero chuckles. “Yes.” — i mean ouch but also Yeah
“That was good news. He hasn’t been kidnapped. He just needed a nap.” “Can you not make a joke about this situation for like one fucking minute, Allister?” — could be the tism on my end but i didn't take this as a joke . jimmy needs a break, piero told them that, lister has seen enough to agree . (also: lister has Also contemplated running away so it makes sense he's less eager to bring jimmy back to ldn bc he doesn't see it as fixing the problem the same way rowan does)
Why do I always have to be the serious one? The worrier? Why can’t someone else do the worrying sometimes? — other ppl Do worry . but not so much that it becomes its own problem worthy of therapy
We save the deep chats for Jimmy. Jimmy doesn’t open up very often, but you know Jimmy will listen if you have something serious to say. — vs jimmy's wednesday narration 'we don't ever talk about deep stuff, me and lister bird' :((((
This whole bedroom is something out of twelve-year-old Lister’s wildest fantasies—it’s spacious and modern, with one floor-to-ceiling window, dark walls, LED lights behind the headboard, and a fifty-inch TV. — what u lack as a child you seek as an adult etc etc (space, material possessions, money)
Rowan’s room is always tidy. He puts away his clothes at the end of the day and makes his bed in the mornings. — always craving order & control :(
Rowan loves to criticize me about buying unnecessary things, but all I need to do is remind him of the velvet chaise longue in his bedroom that I’m pretty sure nobody has ever sat on. — comedy gold amidst the agony
He blinks at me. “You remembered my weird order?” — remembering ppl's orders is a love language
“Can I … ?” I shuffle on my feet. “Can we eat it in here?” — i hate that he's so uncertain n lacking in confidence while asking one of his best friends
I’ve always been deeply annoyed by what a high metabolism he has. I work out three times a week with a personal trainer just to stay toned. — rowan's fixation on body image makes me ✨nervous✨
“You were reading?” I ask, eyebrow raised. Lister narrows his eyes at me. “Wow, hilarious." — i stand by my 'lister loves to read but nobody ever assumes that or believes him bc their perception is skewed by him not gelling with academia' hc
“But don’t you see how that’s, like, still very fucked-up behavior, Rowan?” — GET HER JADE
And it’s scary that he thinks he’s completely fine. That this level of stress is normal. That he’s a functioning, well-adjusted human who is able to cope with being one of the most famous musicians in the world with absolutely no help or support whatsoever. — yeah :((
“You kissed him,” Rowan says. “So he decided to climb out of a window and run away.” “I mean, yeah, in summary.” — but no, realistically
Rowan wipes a tear from his eye. “Oh my God. So funny.” He’s properly pissing me off now. — give him a break roseph he's already mentally ill u don't have to embarrass him as well (/lh)
It’s a question I’ve asked myself every day for years. A question I’ve answered in daydreams, in nightmares, in conversations with myself in the shower. A question I still don’t know the answer to, and maybe never will. A question that doesn’t need an answer, now that I know for sure that Jimmy doesn’t like me back. — aaaaaagonyyyyy beyond power of speeeeeeech when the thing that u want is the only thing out of ur reach
“But … the circumstances of our relationship are so challenging. We live in very, very different worlds, and our lives are on very different trajectories. And sometimes I think relationships just can’t survive that.” — JUSTICE FOR LAIMONDI :(
Jimmy fell asleep almost immediately, a feat that would become less and less common as we all got older, but Lister and I couldn’t sleep because we were too busy watching funny YouTube videos on my phone, muffling laughs into our hands, trying not to wake anyone up. — BABY ARK MY CHILDREN

Hey as you prepping for surgery, I had mine last year and here's a couple things I found helpful. Thought I'd pass them along in case they're of any use to you.
Button up shirts, Primark does some fantastic soft cheap ones in the men's section that work great as PJ's or as just a soft easy to put on top post surgery. As you don't want to be pulling tees over your head.
If you gotta drive anywhere, make sure you put a pillow between your chest and the seatbelt or else owie.
You cant reach up for like a month at least, you need to reach up for something either get someone else to do it or prepare, so get yourself a step stool or just move everything lower before surgery.
Antihistamines specifically one with cetirizine hydrochloride (piriteze is a popular brand that is this type) is amazing for relieving itchy sensations. And you will be itchy.
Anyways I am repeatedly boosting your post, hope you get enough money and best of luck to you!
Answering this publically so I don't lose the info, Thanks so much! I've been collecting advice for post-op stuff, so this is very handy! I hadn't heard the thing about antihistamines, I'm glad you let me know about the itching in advance XD Also good to know about the driving thing, I'll make sure I'll bring a pillow for the return trip.
And I really appreciate the post boosting! I've had a couple of donations so far which I greatly appreciate. I'll be pretty thrilled with anything I can raise beforehand.

Later, when Blake left for his first gig at the Last Simoleon, he had an unexpected encounter there. His old best friend from the orphanage and school - Annie Howell.
Tumblr media
Blake: Where have you been? I've been looking all over Strangetown chatrooms for you, but everyone said you moved away!
Annie: Oh, Hoot got a little scared of all the alien sightings and moved over to Strangerville to open up a new saloon there. I tagged along, cause someone had to help him manage that hole.
Tumblr media
Annie: But what about you?? You also just disappeared one day! Last thing I remember you said those scientist weirdos offered you big money if you work for them and then you just cut all contact! I assumed you got your big bucks and went "see ya later, suckers!" on your friends.
Blake: I mean... that sounds like something I would probably do. But owie, you wound me.
