Stranger Things'd your In Space with Markiplier Trailer
[PLEASE TURN ON AUDIO TO HEAR WHAT I MEAN]
So uh
Yeah
I may or may not have done a thing
So y'see- I had some free time in my Digital Media class the other day, and on the computers on there they had Premiere Pro, a progam I'm starting to learn, but now pretty know just the bare basics of.
So, with that knowledge, I decided to, reasonably, inact on an idea I had for a w h i l e which included getting the trailer In Space with Markiplier and putting the trailer music for Stranger Things 4 (Separate Ways) over it after finding out how incredibly well they worked together.
And so here we are-
I know it's not perfect, again just started learning how to use PremierePro, and a few places had to really squeeze/stretch it out to fit with the music, but I think I'm pretty happy with the end result!
Part of me is really satisfied to finally have this idea of mine put out, and ey! Who knows? Maybe I'll try this again one day with other trailers and trailer songs...already starting to get a few ideas...
But anyhoo till then, if you excuse me I'll let some brainrot consume me again, and hopefully with this trailer edit, it'll get to you again t o o -

i think most of the good faith questioning of tme/tma terminology (and i do think it exists even if it gets overshadowed on this site by like "ummm EVERYONE is affected by transmisogyny you stupid bitch" type stuff) can be resolved by just saying like. this is a framework to have a specific set of conversations and of course no framework is going to perfectly describe the diversity of human experience in minute granular detail, of course there's gonna be imprecision and edge cases, but that on its own doesn't make the framework not useful or the conversations it's meant to facilitate not important, you just have to be aware of those limitations

going back to that post about that poor soul being repeatedly mistaken for a recording on the phone at work...
i said in the tags that i get a lot of compliments for my telephone etiquette but minimal accusations of being an IVR, and at the time i put that down to the fact i answer the phone very bluntly with just "[department name], [site]" and maybe a "can i help?"
today was my first weekday back at work in 2024 (weekends don't count. we get about 5% of the phone calls) and i realised that actually probably the more important factor is that. although i have got a little better over the last two years i still have a habit of speaking at the speed of a chipmunk on amphetamines. and usually recordings are a little more laidback than that

getting really tired of my new coworker's attitude. starting tomorrow, i'm taking a policy that if she wants me to teach her how to do something, she's gonna have to ask. no more politely checking if she knows how to do a task. no more watching as she does an uncommon thing. if she's gonna give me snark every time our communication styles mismatch, then i'm just going to remove one of the sources of that friction.
#we really. are not a good fit#we miss each other farrrr more often than we match#and as much as i don't want to say i'm blameless and perfect at social things and a victim that things just ~happen to~#i feel like i'm coming to our interactions with a lot more grace and patience#i realize i could take a step back and trust her to do the job#and i'm going to#but i really want to train her well since it seems she'll be sticking around. i want her to be confident in the job and know what she's doin#though i'll admit it has been hard to see her as competent and treat her as such. she had made bad impression after bad impression#and i probably could afford being more hands off at this point#and because i'm annoyed and a little hurt i'm going to just back off entirely#which maybe is kinda a dick move#but if my training strategy has been so annoying to her then she'll probably appreciate me backing off.#even if my intnetions are from negative emotions vs my admittedly redundant reminders#coming from good/helpful intent#it just annoys me because i try to grant her good faith when i misunderstand her or she jumps the gun or something#while i feel like she isn't doing the same when i do it#and then when i explain a thing in a way that doesn't make sense to her she gets passive aggresive about it. in front of patients#tes i could've explained that better and i will try to explain things like that differently in the future#but the running joke you've made about this isn't funny#so. no more training unless explicitly asked for. and frankly#if i can. no more reacting to her passive aggression#that one will be harder but i think i can do it#i hate this so much#i'm at work to get paid not fucking struggle through Draling With Idiots 101#*Dealing#and if she's gonna proudly proclaim how much she just doesn't care? fine. just fine. neither will i#personal#okay can these feelings calm down now i need to sleep

okay i FINALLY got the hanshu in from interlibrary loan (falls to me knees. why is so little of it available in english.) and first off it’s super interesting to see how ban gu’s style differs from sima qian’s, but more relevantly ban’s very year by year chronicle style really emphasizes how much the fucking yellow river was changing course. it feels like every other year we hear “the yellow river burst its banks. famine and cannibalism ensued.” if i was the emperor and i heard that for the fifth time in my reign i would simply descend into a life of carnal pleasure, or possibly walk into the ocean

You're more amazing than tortles (the D&D species)
I have some very tragic news about tortles
Oh also here's the draft archetypes I sketched out for Modified Set 2.0
WU auras WB heroic UB modified control UR artifacts BR equipment BG keyword counters RG modified aggro RW elementals (artifact/enchantment creatures) GW enchantments GU +1/+1 counters
WHITE - Tools: Enchantment creatures, auras, buff spells. Payoffs: Enchantments, heroic, elemental typal. BLUE - Tools: Artifacts, auras, +1/+1 counters. Payoffs: Artifacts, auras, modified. BLACK - Tools: Equipment, AC spells. Payoffs: Equipment, modified, heroic. RED - Tools: Artifact creatures, equipment. Payoffs: Artifacts, modified, elemental typal. GREEN - Tools: +1/+1 counters, keyword counters, enchantments. Payoffs: Counters, modified, enchantments.
#asks#i was kinda struggling to get a 10th archetype after adding artifact and enchantment themes and heroic#then i realized that artifact and enchantment creatures would probably be A Thing#so why not make them a unified creature type?#i was calling them “craftfolk” for a bit before digging through the creature types and settling on elementals#which still isn't final because i'm not sure what the flavor of the set is going to be now#i was already using modified twice AND i was using “enchantments” and “auras” and “artifacts” and “equipment” as separate themes#so i really didn't have room for more redundancy#so throwing in a nice creature type typal theme worked#and most the elemental support will also work with enchantments or artifacts depending on if the card is white or red#like “if you control an enchantment or an elemental this spell costs 1 less to cast” on a white card#so that way the elemental typal support cards also work as enchantment/artifact support cards!#it is still kinda redundant but it's unique enough for me#originally i was thinking of doing a “balance” theme of artifacts+enchantments like Kamigawa Neon Dynasty did#but white ONLY had enchantments and red ONLY had artifacts#originally i was looking to fill the WB archetype but since targeting spells are a great way to do keyword counters i moved heroic to WB#so that way black has keyword counters to work with the BG archetype#WB still had the same problem anyway of black not having enchantments#ANYWAY i figured it all out so everything is cool now#kinda funny to have black be “heroic” though#working out the flavor on that is gonna be weird

Incoming Marble Sky theory about the Marmors' origin planet and more! Spoilers ahead!
I think if we ever get to see their original planet, it might be a dark place (literally and metaphorically), with hives or cities built within ant-like cave systems. Their society also seems to work like those of ants with a queen (Moon), workers and drones.
I think the fact that the Marmors use a form of ecolocation rather than our traditional eyesight might imply that on their original planet, sight as we know it is not a viable option. Their planet might either have little to no light, making eyes redundant, or too much, which would also cause the same problem. I think their fur coloring might also be proof of this, as they seem to display bright colors with no patterns. (Patterns usually help animals, especially predators, blend into their environment, because a blotch of a single color is usually easy to spot). However, there is also a possibility that their coloring might be a result of them becoming the dominant species: We see this with domesticated animals- think cows or cats, with white patches of fur, that make them easier to spot. When colors no longer affect their survival, new color variations tend to pop up.
I also think the fact that they are bipedal (with tails) also tells us that like humans, they might have started walking on all fours and then went up. This allows the brain to become larger, because the neck can hold up more weight, boosting their intelligence. Animals that walk on all fours are usually limited in this aspect because the neck muscles do all the work, so their heads can't get heavier.
The existence of tails might imply that those are still required for balancing purposes. Humans used to have tails but we kinda didn't need them and they went away, but the tail bone still exists. The fact that Marmors still needed them might imply that they still had to climb a lot in their original planet - maybe they live on trees (there's some ants that build their hives hanging from them! Super cool tbh) or they build their homes on cliffs/mountains.
I personally think them living in mountains or cave systems is the more likely option. In the comic we have already gotten the comparison with ants, who tend to build their little hives with tunnel systems going in all directions. This would make their tails useful for climbing, as well as their special eyesight and connections useful for navigating the hive. I mean, a connection like the one we have seen in the latest update is not only useful for hunting but also for their hives, as they can quickly figure out where more "manpower" is needed vs where there's already enough of them in one place.
Also, they have both sharp claws and teeth. Obviously those teeth are stylized in the comic, but they seem very very sharp. Definitely made for ripping and shredding. So it's very likely that the Marmors are obligate carnivores, meaning that, unlike dogs or bears, they can ONLY eat meat. I mention this because those claws would also be useful for hunting and disabling prey BUT connecting this to the cave system theory: Those claws are big and sharp, whoch might also be useful for digging. The giant anteater, for example, has some seriously sharp claws. This thing does NOT hunt other animals, besides ants and termines lmao, but uses those sharp claws to dig into the really hard ground. And those claws are SHARP, boy. They use them regularly to wars off and ERASE jaguargs. Yes, jaguars. So maybe these sharp claws might be tools AND weapons for the Marmors, useful for deleting your prey and digging into the ground!
Going back to the ant comparison: ants society usually has a queen, her simps, and the worker ants. The queen lays the eggs. If those are fertilised by the male drones, they become female workers but if not, they become male drones (the simps lmao). Ecliptica mentions that she is tall because she is a female AND the center of their network. Obviously these are aliens, but I think we can draw parallels: she might be their queen, the only one that reproduces -which would also explain their "children belong to everyone and noone" attitude"- while the rest might simply be the workers. I say workers, even if they are male, because I think the drones might actually be something else. We have seen smaller Marmors like Shepherd's assistants. Now, they might just be small or younger, BUT they could also be the lower ranking drones.
So, to sum up: I think Marmors come from a planet with little light, where they build their hives/societies in ant-like cave systems, digging into the ground. They might also have an ant-like society, that revolves around their queen, the workers and the lower ranking drones, where everyone but the queen is a male.

You were a coward.
Not with everything, because gods forbid you’re afraid of monsters despite having demigod-blood in you.
No, you were a coward with confrontation. With emotions, with love. Mainly love. You couldn’t even confess to a someone without your stomach churning.
And how you expressed attraction was…not ideal, according to Silena. You kind of, sort of—just a tad made fun of some things you found attractive of them.
Ideally, you wanted to leave yourself out for the harpies to maul you when your crushes give you a look (you knew you fucked up).
Which is why you have stuck to the tactic of watch and admire from afar and be happy with just friendship.
A classic.
The bonfire burned high and orange as many of the older campers and counselors, including yourself, were hanging out without the responsibilities of taking care of your younger siblings.
The typical red solo cups were in the hands of every demigod. A mysterious mixture made by Dionysus’ twins, Pollux and Castor, occupied the container. They never told anyone the recipe or what’s in it, but it left a warm feeling in your chest.
“You keep staring and he’s bound to notice.” Silena sat next to you. “Or your eyes fall out.”
“I hate him. Why does he have to look like that?” You groaned and sipped your drink to distract you from your current crush.
Luke Castellan. The golden boy of Camp Half-Blood. He could charm anyone’s pants off with a smile. It was frustrating how good looking and friendly and cool and kind he was. Fuck him.
He was talking the Chris and Beckendorf about who knows what. Somehow, the Hermes counselor has yet to have a girlfriend. He’s probably a virgin. You could fix that.
“Honey…” Silena looked at you with concern in her eyes and a polite smile. “The whole sit and admire tactic is redundant. Talk to him.”
“Silena…” You whined and the girl was preparing herself to listen to your list of excuses of why you can’t.
“No, no—don’t whine like a baby!” Silena dumped the rest of her drink into your cup. Taking initiative, she made your chug like half. “Fess up or mess up! Take some liquid courage and go talk to him.”
“Silen—” You sputtered as your chest grew as warm as the bonfire. Your throat burned in a good way.
Whoever said Silena was the Camp’s Cupid was right and she was quite determined to get a start on pairing you and Luke. Just to see how it turns out, of course.
Next thing you know, you’re dragged over to Luke, Chris and Beckendorf; interrupting the boys’ conversation. Silena made up some lame excuse and said a quick introduction before shoving Chris and Beckendorf away from Luke and you.
Gods, he’s so gorgeous. His curly hair tosseles over his head. His eyes meeting yours as he sipped on his own drink. That amused smirk that paired so well with his scar—both working in favor of his boyish charm.
And suddenly he’s moving his mouth.
“Hey.” He said normal and polite as one would do. Obviously.
And you can’t help but think of Tangled. Specifically, the scene when Flynn Rider is tied up to a chair with Rapunzel’s hair. She interrogating him and all he could muster was a smolder and the word “Hey”, to try and charm his way out.
Luke looks out quizzically as you poorly try to stifle a mix between a giggle and a snort behind your hand. He must’ve thought you were crazy for laughing or extremely rude.
It’s frustrating how nervous you can be in front of your crushes.
“Hi—sorry…” You managed to quiet your laughs and awkwardly sip your drink. “I was thinking about how you remind me of Flynn Rider from Tangled. How are you?”
“Tangled?” Luke tilted his head in confusion. Oh gods, has this boy never experience Disney movies? This just made it even more terribly awkward if he didn’t get the reference.
“Y’know…the girl with the glowing hair locked in a tower until Flynn Rider gets her out to see the lanterns in exchange for the crown?” You explained.
“Oh! Rapunzel.” Luke nodded. “Yeah I remember that. I always loved the lantern scene.”
“Me too! I’ve always wanted to experience something like that.” You agreed and looked over at the bonfire. Silena and Beckendorf encouraging you to keep talking to him.
Though Luke and you fell silent. Your mind wracking topics to talk about with him, but all you can think of is how handsome he is. Now looks aren’t everything, but his personality was a gorgeous as Elysium.
“Gods, you are just so handsome.” You find yourself admitting without even thinking about it. You find the words to talk to him about anything and everything, but your stumble.
Luke grabbed your arm. Stars dotting your vision. The “liquid courage” Silena forced down your throat catching up to you. “Hey, I think that’s enough drinking. Yeah?”
“Yeah…” You mumble as Luke leads you away from the bonfire and towards your cabin.
“Let’s get you back to your bunk, yeah? S’not good to be so drunk now.” He cared enough to walk you back to your cabin! It left a warm feeling in your body, or that was the Dionysus twins’ special drink.
The cabin door creaks open and Luke procures some water. You drink it as Luke crouches to get your converse off. Again, your heart is warm inside, but that could just be the alcohol.
Luke laid your blanket over your body. An amused smirk on his face. He found you drunk cute. So, he decides to admit something hoping you’d remember tomorrow. You’re already half asleep when you hear this.
“I think you’re cute too. Let’s start out with watching Tangled first before we do anything, yeah?” Luke laughed quietly, trying not to wake your siblings. He wanted it to take it slow with you. Was this some drunk dream?
“Yeah…” You find yourself mumbling. Your eyes drooping shut before opening again. Struggling to stay awake to keep talking to Luke, you fall asleep.
Silena was a damn good Cupid.
