Random thought because one of my mutuals put them on my dash:

A lot of things about Haya being erased pissed me off, but the biggest thing is the fact that they gave their entire storyline to Josie in season 3.

According to DRR the writers told her that Hope needed to “take a step back to let other characters shine” so they had her off at Mystic Falls High at the beginning of the season away from the rest of the main cast. Hope was likely supposed to be there for at least the first half of the season, have a romantic relationship with Maya (and Ethan but we don't care about his boring ass), and get a chance at a normal high school life after her traumatic experience in Malivore.

Instead they cut that storyline short because they wanted to focus on Dark Josie and Kai, a plot that didn’t involve Hope in the slightest? There was no reason whatsoever to cut Hope's storyline at MFH and send her back to the SBS. Landon dumping Josie for Hope was played as one of the conflicts that pushed Josie farther down her dark path, but I feel like they didn't need Hope/H@ndon back in the picture so quickly to do that.

Otherwise, Hope spent the rest of season saving the other characters, from situations they could've solved without her interference. Aside from going inside of Josie’s head and giving her words of encouragement, which was at the very end of the season, Hope did nothing of importance in s2 at the SBS to warrant trashing a potentially interesting storyline for her that could’ve added to her character development outside of being the tribrid or being Klaus daughter.

Then, the very next season they basically copy and paste that storyline for Josie. Hope/Josie goes through something dark and traumatic (Being trapped in Malivore/Being manipulated by Clarke) —> Hope/Josie decides to go to MFH as an attempt to get a change of scenery and heal —> Hope/Josie meets a brown, dark haired lesbian wolf (I’m pretty sure it was teased by the actress that played Maya that Maya would find out that she’s a wolf) on her first day there and romance sparks —> Hope/Josie starts up a friendship with Ethan —> Hope/Josie is encouraged to do more human high school things by Maya/Finch and Ethan.

Then to run salt in the wound, they said that Maya had a crush on Josie?? Their one and only interaction was Maya beating her ass, which was followed by her later crying in Hopes arms because Josie ruined Maya’s brother’s chances at winning a college scholarship by breaking his hand. That one off line just felt like one of Brett’s many attempts to erase Hopes bisexuality for the sake of H@ndon.

Repurposing Hopes storyline to give to another character that previously had the biggest storyline of the season only to have Hope be pretty much stagnant for 2 seasons straight was ridiculous and a major sabotage to Hopes character.

Can I just say all of the Characters in Legacies, villains included, are far less problematic than the characters in Vampire Diaries or Originals. They all just give wholesome vibes.

Can't help but think of Maya right now who just told her brother that he should stay put because using his powers could kill him and now someone is gonna have to tell her that that's exactly what happened...

Forget Ethan finding out that Josie was the one who broke his arm. I want MAYA to find out. The angst that would serve.

being with Maya could’ve taught Hope a life outside of magic she’s never experienced life where magic/supernatural world wasn’t so forefront and she needed that…. *heavy sigh*

"Full Void Demo" dev. OutOfTheBit (2023)

Oh this is great. I've been in the mood to play a game just like this. 2D movement, careful and considered locomotion, single screen puzzles with no frustrating resets to far back in the level when a player dies. It looks and sounds amazing, and I love the environment design.

Thunderbirds dev. Saffire (2004)

I worked on this nearly twenty years ago but somehow wasn’t sure that I’d actually completed the game. Now I know.

Stageplay tragedies.

Thunderbirds - "Trapped In The Sky" (1965)

An impressive VFX showcase.

Tales from the Crypt - "The Man Who Was Death" (1989)

This is supposed to be the best the series has to offer? (But I’m here for the cheese anyway.)

The Outer Limits - Seasons 1-3 (1995-1997)

Speaking of cheese, this is perfect 90s sci-fi, and a fine example of Canada’s dominance of 90s TV production.
