#type 2 fun

[dabblingreturns]

Last night my cousin introduced us to a new phrase, "type 2 fun" and @radioactivepigeons as currently best statitician in our family, asked "is that like a 'type II error'"

Apparently "Type 1 fun" is an experience that is enjoyable while it's is happening.

"Type 2 fun" is not enjoyable while it is happening but produces fun/funny stories afterwards

"Type II errors" are false positive errors.

So @radioactivepigeons was happy to note that "type 2 fun" and "type II errors" were indeed similar.

What does your family talk about at the dinner table

#type ii errors #statistics #i have a good family #family dynamics #type 2 fun #the weird thing is that i would consider a type i error to be closer to type 2 fun....but what do i know

Day 4 of my Colorado trail hike is on the blog! That makes four weeks of a blog post a week - very proud of myself for keeping it up tbh, especially with how busy everything else is. It's nice to have a focus with this.

Let’s talk about armor.

Armor is heavy, and even when it’s light armor, it takes very little time to begin feeling its extra weight distributed throughout every cell of your physical being. It just saps the energy right out of you.

For several years pre-pandemic, I trained in a couple semi-professional stage combat systems and learned how to use a variety of weapons and armor. Our group performed at Ren Faires and other events. We fought in the blazing sun between jousting rounds, we practiced on freezing cold winter evenings, and we fought in the cold rain, which only weighed our tabards and cloaks down further.

I used to fight in shows and with folks who routinely wore 75 lbs of gear. Several rode and jousted with their full plate on and then dismounted their horses and challenged each other on foot. Support crew like myself would run out, hand them a sword, take the reigns, and lead the horses away to the sidelines, where we watched and cheered.

One of the key parts of squire duty was helping people suit up. Plate armor has various buckles and leather straps that the wearer couldn’t possibly fiddle with and latch themselves. Everything goes on in a particular order, because many of the bits are anchored to the breastplate. It took 1-2 people to get a person in and out of all their gear.

If you wear chainmail and you have long hair, you’d better put a bandanna on while donning it, or your hair will get caught in the rings. It’s always a bit of a goofy wriggle to get into—and then later out of—the heavy steel shirt.

While wearing armor of any kind—even more so with really heavy armor—you have to be mindful of your center of gravity so that you don’t fall backward nor pitch forward; it forces you to keep your spine stacked in a solid line and have excellent posture. You also have to allow your legs to take the extra weight, and you will quickly find you need to do a slight duck walk to protect your knees. Maneuverability is partly impacted because your hamstrings and quads are being worked with every step. You also could wear a padded shirt under the plate to cushion the weight on your shoulders and protect your torso from chafe, and that extra layer also restricts your upper body movement.

You absolutely cook in the sun. You are a person-shaped tank, and in the sunlight, that steel becomes a mobile oven. On hot days, you have to be constantly drinking water or you will pass out. Even far more forgiving chainmail heats up and drains your energy. Conversely, when it’s cold outside, unless you opted to wear that thick padded shirt, your armor will leech the heat right out of you. It’s kind miserable no matter what weather you’re in. 😂 You also have to oil or buff the steel to keep it from rusting after you’re caught in the rain.

Armor is a lot of work.

A cape—even made from lighter fabric—is also surprisingly heavy. It pulls you down and back with its weight, and you are constantly using your core to fight against it without slouching. If it’s a long cape, have to be mindful not to catch it under your boots when you step backward.

But before you know it, you’ve grown stronger and built up muscle in various strange places you don’t normally use, and you suddenly realize that you’re used to wearing all this gear and it feels good to put it on. Just like the swords and shields we used, the capes and cloaks and layers of armor became extensions of ourselves. Gearing up became a ritual in which some part of us also got into character. I weirdly felt more like another version of me, as I often do when I pull on specialized equipment for a task.

There was a comfort in the heft and weight, because all those layers of cloth, leather, and steel were, in fact, there to protect us. The flat sides of my broadswords are battle-scarred from blocking and redirecting countless blows, and my shields are chipped and dented, but if any of my “opponents’” strikes somehow made it past my guards, I still had my armor as a last resort.

you know how there was a running theme with the NPC encounters in hades? that sisyphus, eurydice, and patroclus were all involved in stories about being unable to escape death?

and its something thats explicitly discussed within hades itself, at least for sisyphus and eurydice. sisyphus had attempted to cheat death three times, one of the most notable being when he bound thanatos in chains. orpheus had found a way to bring eurydice back to life, but couldn't follow through with completing hades' challenge. achilles had a prophecy hanging over him during the war; die in glory at troy or live long unremembered. he chose the war and patroclus followed. they didn't survive. they are all different manifestations of the axiom zagreus is fighting against: that in hades, there is no escape.

so i was thinking. in the hades 2 playtest, we get dialogue from nemesis about how mortals had it better during kronos' time. we get dialogue from arachne too, about being distrustful toward the gods because of her curse.

i wonder if the running theme for the npcs in hades 2 will be people maligned by the gods in some shape or form.

arachne is already confirmed as the npc encounter for erebus. proud athena cursed her into being a spider. will we see victims of a love gone wrong in the next biome, like daphne perhaps? will we see those offered up for sacrifice just to appease the gods, such as andromeda or iphigenia? maybe those who were killed, perhaps unjustly so, because they dared fly too close to the heavens, like bellerophon or icarus? demigods that were cursed because of their birth, ala heracles? its long been a joke that the greek myths are just full of people suffering because of the incomprehensible acts of the gods. if hades 2 goes down this route, theres a lot of material to draw inspiration from.

and its an especially interesting direction because we know that its kronos waiting for us down the line. kronos, who ruled the golden age. when it comes to those wronged by the gods, you cant get much worse than being waged war against, your mountain stronghold so damaged from the attack that it loses height, and then being cut up into tiny pieces.

kronos, the crooked one. i bet he'd have a hell of a time trying to convince melinoe that the gods cant be trusted. and melinoe would be surrounded by all these narratives that would just prove his point.

just like how zagreus was in hades, who was surrounded by all these narratives about how death had no escape. and yet, his story is about how life and love bloom despite it. i cant wait to see what melinoe is fighting against now.

#hades game #hades 2 #mine #hades game meta #hades analysis #okay something i couldnt fit in the post lol #melinoe is literally roomies with a ghost called dora #dora. like pandora. pandora's box dora. #arguably the first mortal ever victimized by the gods. #can you IMAGINE if we're running all these storylines about mortals who have suffered from olympian hands and then we get the reveal that #dora is PANDORA??? #although i dont think thats where we're going with her character lmao it might like a #dusa situation where we get hints that she might be?? medusa??? but ultimately she has her own character and storyline with zag #that is completely unrelated to medusa lmao #lol just a thought. are we ever gonna talk about zeus committing mass genocide in like a. noahs ark type situation #like the great flood and all that. like probably not. but wouldnt that be fun

I wrote a blogpost about the first day on the Colorado Trail! It's been over a year since my last post and even longer than that since I've written for the blog consistently, but it's been sooo fun writing about my hike and I'm really hoping to get back into it. The plan is to get a new day up each Thursday! Go have a look and let me know what you think :)

Hiiiii hi!!! This AU is actually still completely brain rotting me :)

If everyone wants to cry, I've decided that the characterization fits best with the SCU versions of the Sonic characters, so we're traumatizing him by blowing up his dad! (I'm genuinely so sorry)

Bonus father-son bonding! Punch that guy in the face!!

#✨️🎶 but in the passage of time and in the vastness of space‚ a billion amounts to nothing in infinity's face 🎶✨️ #i cried several times while drawing this have fun!! #the movie 2 speech?? paired with Gary's dad's i love you bunches and bunches??? devastating ngl #cannot draw a man constantly to save my life #sonic #my art #SCU: Final Space! #tom wachowski #sonic the hedgehog #sonic fanart #tw death #tw character death #tw explosion #(kinda) #oops forgot to type that first one. it's fine tho #final space

Interviewer: Avatar Aang, why did you run away from home? Aang: I was told I was the Avatar at like 12, and the pressure got to me so I childishly ran away. :( Ironically that ended up being the right choice, but that's a diff story. Interviewer: Fascinating. Did you take anyone with you? Aang: Of course! My best buddy, ol' pal Appa! :D Appa: Moo Interviewer: Avatar Korra, why did you run away from home? Korra: Well the first time- I don't want to talk about the second time- it was because those jerks wouldn't let me BE THE AVATAR! So I ran away to do my duties! Interviewer: Fascinating. Did you take anyone with you? Korra: Of course! Only the best girl ever, Naga! Naga: Woof

Interviewer: Avatar Kyoshi, why did you run away from home? Kyoshi: After witnessing the death of two of my loved ones. I swore to escape my sifu's control and to get revenge by any means necessary. Interviewer: Fascinating. Did you take anyone with you? Kyoshi: Of course! I took my totally 100%, platonic bestie Rangi! Mmmhmmm just friends, totally, ONLY friends. Haha. No secret longing feelings here, no siree. Rangi: Platonic???? Not by the end of this trip, not if I have anything to say about it!

HEADCANNON TIME WITH MORE ROACH!

My favorite pass time is to look at a character and imagine what’s theyir favorite type of music is...and per consequence I also tend to love atributting them an instrument that I think fits them!

SO! Roach plays electric guitar >:3

Since he’s always been selective mute, his father feared that he wouldn’t have a way to truly express himself, so when Roach turned around twelve his father gifted him his first ever guitar. And from them he’s been jamming to his heart’s content.

When he and Ghost are home he loves bothering him with the worst songs he can think off, also doing specific sounds with the guitar as a form of communication.

#manysart #i had a fun time drawing these he he #eletric guitars are quite easy to bulshit your way around ashgdjahsdg #also am still thinking of what type of music Roach would listen too... #I already have Ghost's and Soap's pretty set #this goober is just a little harder #I think he would listen to The Strokes for some reason #maybe that's because those are the vibes i go with him XD #manyrambles #cod #call of duty #cod mw2 #call of duty modern warfare 2 #call of duty roach #gary roach sanderson #ghost is also there #they share an appartment #i might turn the bottom one into a full piece >:3 #don't hold me to that tho ashdgjad
