a super fun thing that my brain is really good at is hearing a random fact and remembering it forever. but only if it's bad :)
#the reason I'm thinking about that right now: I wish I had never read that having a crease on your earlobe means you're more likely to have#heart disease.#scared me so much that I read a whole paper about it#but it's been years now so I don't remember the details#just that that's a thing apparently#and guess what my brain does with that information? oh yeah of course I have to obsessively look at the ears of everyone now! does that#do anything helpful? nope! just makes me very very anxious :)#it's just like when I was a kid and I got nightmares about scurvy every time I didn't eat a potato for a week.#like. wow I could be so smart and everything if my brain wasn't constantly focused on random bullshit that is completely irrelevant 😭#also this thing specifically: I've always been weirdly fascinated by ears and this made that a million times worse and also very scary.#like ooh that's a nice ear :) oh no death exists and this person is going to die and#yeah it sucks.#specifically choosing not to mention any names in this context because my god this shit is on my mind all the time already I really don't#need to say it where anyone can see#it's embarrassing enough#though anyone who has looked at my blog in the past month already knows who I'm talking about.#like. I really shouldn't allow myself to like anyone over the age of like. idk 45.#it's so unbelievably exhausting.#but annnyway I'm totally normal and fine :)#oh yeah I also have creases on my earlobes lol so that definitely added to the scariness (and THEN my mother randomly mentioned recently#that EVERYONE on her side of the family had/has heart disease. bitch WHAT the fuck. anyway so yeah guess we know what's gonna kill me#haha isn't that fun :) )#ALSO the fact that my memory is very very bad means that I remember absolutely none of the details about shit like this. so it could very#well be completely irrelevant and harmless but i wouldn't remember that part.#and I think even if I found out more it wouldn't help. it's been an obsession for so long. I've never had one go away that I've had for#this long. so. guess I'm just fucked.#personal

I don't feel like IS is over-correcting. Even their character descriptions of Rhea, Edelgard, Claude and Dimitri are consistent with how KT wants them to be presented. Claude even uses strategies that he asked the villains about in Hopes and repeats the Edelgard rhetoric in Heroes as well. I'm pretty sure they just want you to like everyone.
Ehh,
That's where we disagree anon, it's all about the presentation.
KT, in Nopes, doesn't even give a voice to Rhea - she's wholly unplayable, un-support-able, heck you can interact more with random npcs than with her.
Dimitri? Zahras' demolished him because he cannot tell the other two kids they're asshats - and this is taking into account how Zahras Dimitri can happen after Mattias's death, or worse, Ingrid's!
Claude is someone noted for his ambition, but also his curiosity and a need/want to understand things, something Clout lacks - as he buys the information campaign, and showed more reaction to Macuil being able to talk than to Rhea turning in the IO !
And even Supreme Leader, to some extent, KT wants us to believe she's free and fights her own battles... but the end of Supreme Bullshit ends with Captain Falcon vs Dark Shadow, with Supreme Sailor Fuku (hell do I hate the sailor fuku, we came from the armored Emperor from the Post TS, even in her red dress she had more class, to that? A school girl uniform with metal plates? Seriously??) watching from the bench.
Yes they want us to like everyone, but KT has, in Nopes, imo, a very specific definition of what "everyone" means.
Dimitri kills soldiers who want to invade his land? BaD BaD BaD.
Supreme Leader marches on Faerghus, the Alliance and GM? It's just a normal sunday.
Rhea exists? BaD!
Point taken for Claude though, even if I have to check the jp script because FE Fodlan showed everyone you can't trust lolcalisations when it wants to lol-calise, even some scenes or lines from FE16 and FEH tend more to his Nopes!Counterpart than the one we ended up with in FE16 - even if the FE16 one isn't all roses and sunshine!
(but that'd imply both IS and KT intended Almyra to be... what it was shown in Nopes, and I had a bit more faith in them lol)

Timeloop au snippet
Brutal economy of motion, silent, Lucien watched Nesta spread her napkin over her lap. Straighten her silverware. Draw closer the water rather than the wine at a precise right angle, and then fail to drink.
“No one human left to write to,” Elain laughed, the sound a grating lie.   Nesta wound her hands together beneath the table, knuckles white. “You,” Morrigan’s laugh cut into the word, interrupted by a swallow, “You want to send letters to faeries?”   Calm, cool, dead- Nesta addressed the wall somewhere behind Azriel, “Our family has traded with faeries for fifteen generations.”   Rhysand hummed, low in his throat, the noise imbued with enough power the hairs on Lucien’s arms rose. “Of course. Merchants. Do humans consider business a success when they’re starving in a hovel, living only off their children’s bravery?”   Morrigan let out another shattered glass laugh. Waved her drink Nesta’s direction, jaunty. “All in the past now. You’re Feyre’s family. You need not worry about being taken care of.”   The High Lord of Night responded by showily pouring wine down his throat.   Quiet, in the icy lull that followed, Azriel said, head ducked as though speaking only to Elain, “Your guards will be allowed into the city now, I’ve taken care of it. The barracks in the harbor will house them.”   “They hardly need them,” Morrigan cut in. “The House is impermeable.” She leaned forward, toward Lucien, “The walls of Velaris have not been breached in more than twelve thousand years. We can keep two girls safe.”   Safe- they’d shattered their lives and watched them be killed.   They’d been murdered, just to punish Feyre, for the asinine plan of this foolish, petty Court.   It was insult too far, for Nesta.   “Is it?”   Slow, menace filling the air like a chill, Rhysand shifted. Had both his feet on the floor and the whole otherworldly force of his furious violet gaze on Nesta, when she continued.   “The safety of your city is secrecy,” Nesta hissed, “And you already sold it. Twelve thousand years ended the second you were insane enough to imagine humans would choose you, the son of slave-owners.”

separate post because i forgot to mention it in the first one. the difficulty spikes/unspikes in act 3 of the 2023 game of the year were very interesting to me
#mine#and by interesting i mean interesting and slightly annoying#for reference this run was on easy mode (most of them probably will be or at least a solid chunk)#and i went in knowing the bare bones basics of the combat system and figured out a lot of things as i went#(still don't know why everyone's so obsessed with barrels though?)#and i've always been kind of stupid so this style of combat had a very big learning curve lol there's so much to do#i enjoyed the challenge though :) anyway back on topic it was really surprising to me because the endgame stuff#was so easy? i was worried about the courtyard fight because the wiki described it as an all out attack but i cleaned house#ast4ri0n took out two enemies on his own just in the first team and orpheus killed like half of them with his cool powers#and the rest of the party cleaned up the rest and we barely broke a sweat#THEN i was worried about getting up the tower and reaching the stem but that was also easy? we took like next to no damage and got there#super fast (again shoutout to ast4ri0n for having insane movement speed and zooming up to the top like that)#and then when i was on top of the brain i was like omg this dragon is going to fucking eat me alive#nope! we scurried along the left side and killed a few enemies but many of them lived#and we got in with barely any injuries#then in the final brain platform area i was like OH SHIT!!!! WHAT IF I DIE#but that was easy too like we literally killed it in one turn#it used the negation orb but nothing actually blew up or died cause then we all had our turns#and just wailed on it until it was dead#meanwhile i had to try about 4 times to get the house of hope fight right#i tried cazador and the foundry steel watchers fight once each before cheesing them#had to try about 4 times for the iron throne? give or take? and then had to try i think 3 times for gort's fight#it was very surprising to not only beat all the post-pool fights in one go but also so easily#maybe i'll try higher difficulty modes in the future...i do feel emboldened...but for now i'll stay on easy

“Come on.”
“Uh?”
Diane looks up as Naomi stands and holds out her hand as if this isn't a ridiculously careless thing she's asking her to do, as if neither of them has the good sense to mention that neither one of them has any idea what they're getting themselves into. As if neither of them might be walking straight into a trap of their own making, or nothing much will change at all and they'll forget about each other in a month, or a few days. As if it's a risk worth taking to find out which.
As if there's anything else to do today.
“I'm not going to the hospital.”
“I know.” Naomi reaches a little closer. “I have a first aid kit at home.”
Enough to get them through, that's all. Enough for now.
“You know how to wrap it?” Diane asks as she takes Naomi's hand to pull herself up, as though the answer might change her mind somehow. Naomi smiles a little, as though she knows it just as well that it won't.
“Yeah.” She sets Diane's hand down on her shoulder. “It's not far, come on. I'll carry you down the stairs.”
“You'll drop me.”
“I will not.” Naomi urges her forward, along the concrete path out of the park. “I mean I'm just offering, I don't have to.”
It's a nice gesture, though, isn't it? It was a nice thought.
They walk slowly down the street, stepping more or less in sync past the general store with the baking supplies just past the doorway, turning at the corner to walk toward the coin laundry that's open even at three in the morning and also on holidays. A hand-drawn poster in the window of the discount shoe store across the street loudly advertises VACUUMS REFURBISHED while a Times New Roman printout on the telephone cubicle in the middle of the block offers “suitable compensation” in exchange for willing test subjects, No Questions Please; a few steps farther along stands an apartment building that somehow looks like it's missing a couple of stories, and Diane shifts her weight to her good leg as Naomi steps away to fumble with the lock on the front door.
“It's the door on the left,” Naomi says, the door sticking only slightly as she shoves it open. “When you get to the basement.”
She opens the first door on the right, a stairwell that only leads down.
“Upstairs is that door over there, but I don't know any of the neighbors, so. I'm not gonna introduce you to anyone.”
That's fine. Diane doesn't want to know any of them, either.
Naomi walks down the stairs first and doesn't try to carry her.
“Bathroom's at the end of the hall,” she says. “The taps aren't broken, the water's just cold when it's cold outside and warm when it isn't, but if you let it run for a little while, it'll...fix itself. And make sure you don't touch the water heater, it's metal and it gets really hot sometimes.”
Diane clutches the wooden banister nailed to the wall as she limps her way down and wonders how much of all this she's supposed to remember. All of it, probably. It isn't very complicated.
Naomi unlocks the door on the left and holds it open.
“You can sit on the bed.”
It's good of her to offer. It isn't much of a bed, really, more of a mattress pushed into the corner, but that isn't exactly a surprise, and it's good of her to offer all the same.
“Thanks,” Diane says, a little too late to seem quite natural. Naomi hums a disinterested acknowledgment and doesn't seem to mind.
“Take off your shoes.”
Diane promptly unties her sneakers, placing them on the floor beside the bed as Naomi kneels in front of her with a roll of ACE bandage in her hand and her eyes focused on Diane's ankle like she's the only attending physician in the entire complex who doesn't have better things to do with her time than tend to something as trivial as all this. Diane should count herself lucky the timing worked out the way that it did.
Lucky, was it? It's about time.
The single bulb in the overhead light flickers a little as if a public execution has just disrupted the power grid, or someone's turned on too many air conditioners at once and blown a fuse a few floors up.
“Don't worry about it,” Naomi says. Diane doesn't bother to assure her that she wasn't.
#anna tries to be original#i started reading something that objectively has nothing wrong with it but within about three pages had me bored out of my mind#and i started skimming it to see if it picked up or anything caught my interest later on#but i noticed that a few of the paragraphs were like thirty lines long#and i immediately noped the hell out of there#and then i was like 'you know what i should do is i should work on that story that i spend about twenty minutes on every four or five days'#i took a phys ed class in college that was literally all education#we didn't actually do any sports or anything#it was all classes and lectures and stuff#one day we went to the nurse's office or whatever you call that area on a college campus#and we learned how to wrap sprained ankles#i know i picked it up very quickly but i have absolutely no recollection of how to do it now#also yesterday i had to spend the day dealing with some incredibly idiotic coworkers#i don't even think they're necessarily stupid people but they were certainly acting like it#and first thing this morning one of the messaged me with a stupid question to follow up on all her stupid questions from yesterday#'where is this data in the file?' oh gosh i don't know have you tried spending two seconds actually LOOKING FOR IT#and someone else messaged me at the same time to ask for help with something that he's now doing completely wrong#but it's a new system and i know he's trying and i also know he is actually good at his job so i don't mind helping him#but i'm going to have to waste my afternoon in a meeting with the other idiot#and two people who DO have their shit together but i know for sure that if he has to do anything it'll add like half an hour's time#to a task that should take five minutes tops#also there's a severe weather warning for excessive heat today#i want to go out and buy some fruit before it gets too unbearable#but in order for that to happen i need these people to leave me alone for twenty minutes

our bosses are like "don't be afraid to stay home sick! we value our workers and it's important to rest when you need it" and i do appreciate the thought, i think it's important that bosses truly believe that. but when you are sick and off from work, there is no one doing your job. so when you come back, you have all of last week's projects unfinished and then some new ones too, that someone decided to assign to you while you were away. fun! and if you are not new and are familiar with this practise, you might just spend your sick leave stressing about returning to work. which is obviously super relaxing and healing.

Two days with family and I feel so weirdly infantilized. I pay for nothing, I never drive, I make no decisions, I can't curse, and I can't listen to 90% of my music. It is literally like I am 14 again. I don't like it.

Lana del Rey's exact wing (9w1 or 9w8) is torturing me. I see strong arguments for both. But I lean towards w1 after thinking it through properly.
Popularly everyone types her 9w8, probably because of the fallacy that 1s are all boring political types who hate art. Really 1 is the type that is MOST fixated on actualizing their ideals of beauty, so... yeah. That changes the game here completely.
I see w8 in her life choice to live Mad Max style and her constant focus on sex. Though that can all be explained away with her being an sx/sp. I see w1 in her prissiness, her extreme perfectionism towards her appearance and her highly stylized and polished music videos. Her focus on philosophy -- she got a degree in philosophy, few know this because it isn't really in her songs -- and also the tone of sarcasm as opposed to raw rage in most of her songs. She never overtly expresses her feelings of anger. But her songs are almost all sarcastically digging into the guy she is mad at by painting a pretty picture of how brutal and disrespectful of her (non-existent and invisible) boundaries he is. A w8 would be much more direct and also more minimalistic / ugly, less stylized than her. She has the 1-ish pursuit of perfect beauty
