also thinking about how legato is a really good example of how it can be really easy for survivors of abuse to escape one abusive situation, only to fall into another abusive situation

It is only in hindsight that I realize that of course Legrasse (Actor feat, went to Fantasy Juilliard, formed warlock pack by picking up Faeruns equivalent of The Yellow King) would look at the mysterious man who introduced himself by reciting poetry and only answers questions cryptically and decide "Yes, I like him" and then not think critically about it even after learning Raphael is a devil.

i am going to hate on Around The World in 80 Days (2021).
Not because of any "woke bullshit", in fact the only reason i chose to watch this version instead of another was because of the woke bullshit the negative reviews had promised me.
No, I want to complain about three things.
A) i was most definitely a Fix/Passepartout shipper when i read the book. however when they gender swapped fix, it was like oh. You've gender swapped this character for what? so you could make them heterosexual? Gender swap both, cowards.
B) Phileas Foggs whole personality... As well as some others, but we'll focus on him as he's the main character- the negative reviews had of course informed me that the show had "sucked out all his testosterone", but as an enjoyer of loser men, i was almost looking forward to that. No, but they've taken away everything that made him act like himself, he no longer acts cold, he acts like... Well, he acts like any David Tennant character (thats not a murderer, that is).
C) other then the personality, it was very inconsistent with the book? Again, not talking about Passepartout being Black or Fix being a women, I really dont mind that other then them being heterosexual, but I mean, what the fuck happened to Aouda?
Anyway sorry for complaining about this, im sure it was great to a lot of people, but as someone who had literally finished the book the same day i started watching, it was really annoying.

[ID: Picture of my grey cat, sprawled across my lap. His paw curled around 3 of my fingers to bring the pencil I'm holding closer to sniff. His head is tilted almost 90 degrees sideways and his large fangs are visible. The paper he's on top of is blurred.
END ID]
Demanding...

watching the stuff thats going down with twitter with the layoffs and christ twitter might actually die as a website. like hoping for ya'lls sake that there's some way to pull up from this but either way those thousands(?) of people arent going to probably be getting their jobs back. You can't really come back from that.
and honestly I've never been a fan of twitter and definitely am not a twitter user but its still crazy and sad to me that it might really go out like this. I wonder if any new social media platform might rise from those ashes though. maybe

>Capcom has said they have no plans to add Lagiacrus because its animations and snake-like body are ‘too hard to program’ or some similar shite
I don’t pretend to know anything about programing but don’t leviathan monsters all have snake-like bodies? We have Royal Ludroth and Mizutsune in the game, and Lagiacrus’ body isn’t terribly different in terms of shape to theirs.
I dunno I just kinda don’t really entirely buy the whole ‘too hard to program’ thing. Maybe they could have used the time to program the fucking giant crab to program Lagiacrus, but what do I know?

BTW if you need a part time job and are alright with kids, you should look into becoming a substitute teacher. In my area you need some college credits but not a degree, but I would imagine requirements are probably sometimes more or less in other areas. If you’re qualified, though, it is a really fun job with extraordinarily flexible hours and at least where I live it has full benefits (insurance, retirement, etc), plus there’s a major shortage right now in a lot of places so if you meet the basic qualification requirements you are near-certain to be hired.

I got my work timetable and I am slightly panicking as it overlaps with my college timetable meaning I'll be late for work by just under 20 minutes.
Uh oh...

Okay yall it’s finally time I’ve finally written something in this book that I’m so excited about I have to share it.
context if you haven’t been paying close attention to every single thing i say for the past several months at least (why not?): I’m in early stages of writing a novel that is, very very shortly, cinderella but trans. It is not anywhere close to being finished, I’m talking years of work left to do, so this isn’t so much a promotional post as just damn that’s very good and I’m good at what i do. So here is one teeny tiny excerpt, and yall are the first to ever read it, of the main character coming out to her best friend (and love interest’s brother)
“I don’t know how else I can explain it, I just… When somebody calls you a man, when somebody says, ‘Oh, him? That’s Prince Andrew, he’s the king’s son’ - when somebody calls you sir, you know that that’s right. It doesn’t feel wrong to you, that’s just what you are, it’s who you are. But it’s not right for me. It never has been, it’s never been right, I’ve never…” her trembling voice trailed off. “My whole life I feel like I’ve been wearing a disguise that I can’t take off. And nobody has ever seen me, nobody knows who I am – they look at me and they see Dominic, they see this- this man but that’s not who I am! I don’t know how to express it more clearly. It’s so plain and so obvious to me, I don’t know what else I can say. I know that I am a woman. I know that that is who I am. Every time that somebody calls me sir, every time somebody has called me a boy or a man, every time somebody says Dominic. It’s not right. And I feel it and it’s crushing me.”
