They covered so much ground in the first three episodes. It felt like a lot was happening and I need to rewatch them so the new-episode-adrenaline can be worn off and it can just be about the plot points.

However, tome-searching ended up going even worse for Victor -- while he did find a book, it was a Tome of Delicioso -- a spell Victor very much already knows! So while Alice finished up her painting and took another nap, and Smiler parked themselves at the dining table to play some Ultimate Sports (aka Secretly FIFA) on their laptop, Victor tracked down Simeon in the "dorm" to try and butter him up for a potion recipe. Things SEEMED to be going well, with the pair getting along pretty smoothly --

And then Simeon just got up and walked away mid-conversation. And then did it AGAIN when I tried to have Victor chase him down. *grumbles* I decided I was done trying to talk to the Sages at that point and had Victor just fly off to Caster's Alley to see what was on sale there. Fortunately, he struck gold at the tome shop -- a tome for the Potion of Emotional Stability AND for that of the Nimble Mind! Victor purchased both, then checked out the broom shop and the potion ingredients shop -- nothing he particularly wanted at the broom place, but the potion shop had a spotted heart frog, so I had him pick up that. Even if he can't use it, it'll be a nice addition to Smiler's collection! He celebrated his victory in finding SOMETHING to bring home by Deliciosoing up a nice rack of lamb, yum. :)

Meanwhile, Alice awoke from her nap with a bit of a need to pee -- and as the house was a fair bit away, I decided to have her transform into her beast form and just, uh, mark her territory. XD She grabbed her painting and her easel, then kept trying to go on the hunt while I kept going "no, you can wait until we get home." Smiler was much easier to keep track of, happily, just playing their game and chatting to the visiting Minerva. I was GOING to let them finish their Ultimate Sports match before they all went home --

And then I saw Victor sleeping on the bench he'd had his dinner on. Welp, time to pack up that laptop and get back to the farm!

#sims 4 #the lazy save #victor van dort #alice liddell #smiler always #yeah I have not had a lot of luck just finding tomes in the bookshelves #Victor generally ends up with familiar orbs instead #and it just figures that this time he'd end up with a book #for a spell he already knows *grumbles* #like game please #at least the tome and wand shop had what I was looking for! #now Victor will know three whole potions #hooray XD #but hey it's better than just one #and woo look at Delicioso turning out a truly delectable meal #I was impressed #meanwhile Alice got some werewolf stuff and a pretty picture #and Smiler did some quality gaming and made another new friend #solid trip to the Magic Realm I must say! #queued

I asked one of my sales guys what his interests were and his response was, with no hesitation, "I love making money"

#work #such honesty #i was impressed #his boss was on the call too

Shout out to the colleague who I do not know that acted all chummy with me then glanced at my name tag and said my name wrong.

Just played a punk show that was like 100% trans people seemingly trying to beat each other to death and going outside for a smoke and then resuming trying to beat each other to death. it ruled

#i might by cis but by god i was in the trenches trying to beat my comrades to death as well #honestly the dude doing the most damage out there was like a 4'10 trans guy who couldnt have weighed more than 100 lbs #i was impressed

so bc i am a Gross Dude my friends i and sometimes rate our burps and my coworker (who is a teen girl) burped in front of me once and i instinctively rated it

so now every time she burps she looks to me hopefully for a rating and bc she has delicate little baby burps i now have to create an entirely new Burp Rating System unique to her bc i rate anything below a 5 and she looks at me like this

#pidge speaks #im so sorry babe but i am a Monster #i am a demon #my burps register on the richter scale #i can burp on command #i used to be that kid who burped my abcs to impress people

People against piracy fail to realize that no, I can’t just ‘buy it.’ They stopped making DVDs and Blu-Rays. They’re barely offering digital copies for download. I am not spending money I could use for food or bills to pay for a subscription service just so I can always have access to a beloved piece of media. Especially not when the service will remove media on a whim without concern for how the loss of access to that piece will make its artistic conservation nigh impossible.

For example, I recently learned that Disney+ had an original film called Crater. It’s scifi, family friendly, and seems cool - I would love to buy it as a holiday gift for my little brother! But: it’s exclusive to D+ and THEY REMOVED IT LITERALLY MONTHS AFTER ITS RELEASE.

The ONLY way I can directly access this film is through piracy. The ONLY available ‘copies’ of this film are hosted on piracy websites. Disney will NEVER release it in theaters, or as something to buy, and it may NEVER return to the streaming service. It will be LOST because we aren’t allowed to purchase it for personal viewing. If I can’t pay to own it, I won’t pay for the privilege of losing it when corporate decides to put it in a vault.

So yes, I’m going to pirate and support piracy.

#ra speaks #piracy #media piracy #pirate to make hondo ohnaka proud #obligatory ‘don’t fucking pirate small authors/artists works wtf dude’ statement. #anyone who’s seen my media bitching before knows I’m a hype man for indie films this ain’t about them #this is about corporate streaming services killing physical media bc sales numbers are less impressive than number of streams #edit: USAmericans stop telling me to buy DVDs and blurays at Walmart. think outside your borders for a hot sec. fun thought exercise. #your experiences are not universal #edit: WHO GOT THIS TO 100k. I JUST WANT TO TALK (this post is my second to hit 100k woahg.) #in other news: fix your fucking posture. drink some fucking water. and go the fuck to bed if it’s late bc it’s for me rn. peace and light.

in another life, I'd have continued on the music track and worked to develop my singing. for this life, I guess I'm content providing harmony to sam cooke and eddie vedder. I'll save myself an empty room wherever I live so that I can hear myself echoing and resonating and it will feel perfect.

#once upon a time #tenor soloist in high school #listening to pearl jam #black #sheets of empty canvas #side note: I had a conversation about the soul stirrers today! #< I did not have that on my agenda #with the 'guy with two names' (that's how I remember him) at the nature center #I was sorting seeds listening to my sam playlist at low volume #and he was able to pick it out #I was impressed

listen. i know it's not 2014 anymore and i know it's just a throwaway line and that the russo brothers didnt intend for marvel action blockbuster captain america the winter soldier to become the tragic gay love story that never was but man. having steve say "it's kind of hard to find someone with shared life experience" in a conversation about romantic relationships right before the bucky reveal is so cruel. it's not just about steve and bucky obviously having the shared experience of being "out of time," it's the fact that they've both been stripped of their humanity in opposite directions. steve is a legend, he is an american hero and a national icon before he is a human being the same way that bucky is a weapon and a killing machine before he is a human being. steve knows that anyone who falls in love with him in the 21st century fell in love with captain america first, and that's just not him. but then the one person who knew him first and knew him best and loved him (not captain america, that little guy from brooklyn) so much he died for it is alive, impossibly. and it's a miracle because he's back and it's horrific because he's back under the worst possible circumstances. but to steve, the winter soldier is worth tearing the world apart for because he's always been bucky first. they find each other and suddenly they're human again. and maybe, despite it all, being "out of time" becomes a blessing, because in this century they'd finally be allowed to love each other the way they've always wanted to. like real people do.

like. no. the captain america trilogy isn't about two queer men traumatized and alienated by war and modern life rediscovering and reclaiming their humanity through their love for each other. but. i mean. it couldve been

#like you get why all the fics about those two are insane right. the narrative is just so goddamn compelling #and thats not even getting into the whole thing abt the serum curing steve of every ailment except his love for bucky #which makes him realize it was never an ailment to begin with (despite the commonly held beliefs about homosexuality in the 1940s) #and bucky being *electroshocked* again and again into forgetting steve #like howd you make your gay ass movie that gay and not realize it. its kinda impressive #sorry for the ridiculous stucky retrospective its 4am and i rewatched the winter soldier recently #its not that deep. its not its not its not . but if it was anything other than what it is it could have been. and thats the worst part #shut up riley #marvel #stucky
