okay now that i'm no longer trying to keep a project secret from certain people i can complain publicly about a thing i've been losing my mind about:
why the fuck is the evo wiki like that.
listen. i know. i know fandom wikis being decent entirely relies on whether there are people who both want to obsessively categorize things enough to fill out the wiki, with the free time to do that kind of obsessive categorization, and the desire to manage it all as a wiki. believe me, i know. but please i'm just trying to do research please, please at least bigb's page was just Entirely Empty so i knew i had useless information and just left. why the fuck did the mafia's page, by contrast, have this:
a sentence that is actively LESS USEFUL THAN IF IT WERE NOT THERE.
and then grian's page - GRIAN'S. GRIAN'S. THE ONE PAGE I THOUGHT MIGHT HAVE A SHOT OF BEING FILLED OUT. JOKE'S ON ME I GUESS.
BECAUSE IT HAS THIS????? I'M LOSING MY MIND. WHY ON EARTH IS THE WIKI LIKE THIS. WHY IS IT THIS BAD. PLEASE I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT EVERYONE'S RELATIONSHIPS WITH JIMMY AND MARTYN WERE PLEASE,
anyway thankfully i had friends who could help me with their own knowledge and who also found the evo recap but in conclusion i have been being driven mad by this for weeks, thank you for coming to my ted talk.
One day, enjoying a picnic of strawberries and cream and milk in the Bois de Boulogne, she met the King walking alone, having dismissed his guards. Lightly, she sprang up and ran to him and he, taking her in his arms, gave her a hearty kiss. The watching crowds were in ecstasy. Cries of Vive le Roi and clapping of hands filled the Bois. It was an idyllic moment.

noticed these sorts of characters. decided why not make a diagram or whatever
transcript and more below cut
NORMAL OBJECT
An object, typically real or tangible.
Stick limbs and oval eyes.
Other than object-related abilities, no powers.
TRUE ALGEBRALIEN
Number or symbol
usually a surreal and bizarre entity
has supernatural abilities
more fleshy ??? arms; circle eyes w/ pupils
ALGEBRALIEN-STYLE OBJECTS
Resembles objects
Shares same traits with algebraliens otherwise
NONOBJECT
Not an object
May have powers
Could literally be anything
as a note, i say things more generally.
something i didn't put in nonobject but could have been put there is that they don't usually have faces nor limbs. though, they can definitely have limbs. nonobjects could be just about anything, as long as they aren't objects... like, a regular human for example. those notably have faces and limbs.
nonobjects do, by definition, include algebralien but i don't think it's very useful to talk about them as a group including algebraliens. unless like, apart from objects.
what counts as an "object" might be vague, especially dealing with more abstract things. for example, take a scribble. is that an object? it might depend more on show or interpretation. does Black Hole from BFDI count as a nonobject? maybe, maybe not.
also, there are algebralien-style nonobjects. which have the algebralien style, but are not objects. for example, a human or a turkey.
I love how everyone was so horrified by Miguel throwing beef with Miles and folding that lil' guys' spine meanwhile I had absolutely no reaction, didn't even think it was that bad until someone pointed it out
Like I grew up watching anime, watching teens that barely have the age to drive get their asses handed back to them with a band-aid and all by adults double their size and strength is common occurrence. Nothing new to see here.
Honestly the dumbest thing about my experiences with queerness is I'd hear people talk about identity and how they navigate queerness and I'd be like, "oh, actually, that matches how I feel to a very weird level. Huh. Guess I'll never know why, though!"
And then a few months later, I'll have a breakdown of, "Holy shit, holy fuck what the hell is happening" before I realize maybe I should have paid closer attention to why I related so much to a queer experience.
The moral of this story is: if you relate to somebody explaining their queerness... there's likely a reason for that.
Sowing seeds of discontent and disharmony by hanging up on my parents birthday phone call the second my mom asked if I gained weight. Hope that sits badly on their minds while they think about how that's the first call I've engaged with them in 2 months and it was for the dogs birthday. Dad scrambling to text me for my mom that she didn't mean it. Like fuck I told her I've been having a rough month and day. She couldn't keep it to herself that badly. Fucks sake
(mgv) ouughhh those scenes when cuddy and wilson are arguing over something house has done but they're both alphas so sometimes they get a bit heated.... one time wilson almost got in trouble for growling at cuddy because she threatened to let house try to get out of the trouble with the board of directors or whatever by himself without her protection (which could mean he finally loses his license). they already had been circling each other in her office and she was just barely holding back from baring her teeth
THE BREAST MILK CONVERSATION IS SO MUCH MORE UNHINGED THAN I REMEMBERED WHAT THE FUCK DID I BLOCK THIS OUT OR SOMETHING LMFAO I'M ACTUALLY CRYING THERE ARE TEARS IN MY EYES
Instead of getting back to answering asks like I should be doing, I put together a fandub of some of Brightgoat's original Casino Cups comics using audio that I recorded back in, like, December.
This isn't super well-made. The audio quality is awful, and I didn't bother with any sound effects or anything. Hopefully the voice acting is good enough to make up for the deficits.
