the hardest part of watching campaign 1 for me is that i just hate the way marisha is treated 😭

as someone who started with campaign 2 (and is all caught up on 4) and absolutely adores the way she plays in both of those campaigns, it just sucks watching her get talked down to more than the others. she’s not the only one who is newer to the game and is still learning but a lot of the time when she makes a mistake she gets treated like she’s dumb and it is just hard for me to watch and enjoy because of that and i think it’s why i’m struggling a lot more with this campaign than the other two i’ve watched so far

and i know a big factor in it is that they didn’t want it to seem like she was getting special treatment for being the DMs girlfriend, but it just feels like it’s swinging too far in the other direction. i hope it gets better soon (i’m on ep 52)

and this is in NO WAY an attack on the other players or matt, it’s just something i can’t unsee now that i’ve noticed and i know for a fact ill be skipping certain episodes when i eventually rewatch because of it

It's SO interesting watching Marisha in C1 in comparison with later campaigns. She was so, so young at the time. Watching the more recent campaigns, the age difference is really not even noticeable, but the difference between mid 20s and mid 30s is huge and she was in a group of all older, more established actors. She was just as smart and talented, but her energy just felt so much younger than the rest of the cast sometimes and there are times when you can feel that tension on both sides while watching. While there are moment that are hard to watch, I think watching her grow from this little ball of creativity and intelligence just trembling with potential to the absolute FORCE she is today is such a lovely inspirational journey we've all been so lucky to be privy too. Especially considering the amount of abuse she got from the fandom early on, the way fans lose their ever loving shit over a single pic of her on instagram or a glimpse of Laudna on TLOVM brings me SO much joy, she really deserves it more than anyone IMO.

The moral of Death Note is that cops raise evil children

[omamervt]

I wish I was better about paying attention to channel names because I did watch a video a while back and this was basically the whole video summed up. Like, everyone knows Light was an arrogant fool who sewed the seeds of his own destruction but his solution to the societal problems he lamented about in the first chapter was literally something only the juvenile son of a cop could have come up with.

To Light, Crime was the source of society's "Rot." And his philosophy on what constituted "crime" was basically about normal-ass people who were willing to break the law. you know, the laws Cops enforce.

It also explains why he's indiscriminate rather than surgical. Because of his own biases, he never stops to consider the flaws in the methods of who gets arrested, or how that never actually seems to have an impact on Crime Rates tm. Cops (like Light) simply see this as evidence that they're not arresting enough people! That they're not going far enough! And these are the values our protagonist was raised with. A surgical strike would let Real Criminals off the hook, while targeting people who, yes, may be more evil by orders of magnitude, but they do it in a LEGAL way!

I don't think the story ever consciously addresses this. The Watsonian explanation for that would be that we don't really get to see exactly WHAT values Light's dad instills in his children - he's a major character, but Light spends far more time putting him on a pedestal than actually engaging with him. A couple Doylist explanations might be either that Ohba didn't condone Light's actions, and considered an outside exploration of his motivations to be either uninteresting to explore, or perhaps too much of a challenge to pull off in a story that so heavily revolves around the protagonist's inner monologue. I think it's far more likely, though, that this wasn't intentional - Light's dad was a cop so that he could be on the Kira taskforce and we could get the drama of Light being hunted by his own father, and the blind spots that created for both characters. Knowing the story, and how these characters are used, I find it hard to believe there were intentional ramifications beyond that. But that doesn't change the fact that they're there, and more than anything it serves as an explanation for why Light was the way he was.

As much as I like the potential of what I've seen of the newest D20 trailer.

...If you guys have such short filming schedules that your players are exhausted and can't wrap up stories competently because of it (looking at you Brennan having to give a PSA about what the point of CCOD was supposed to be)

WHY is there another one already?

We can handle longer between a show ending and the next being announced.

@samreich @dropoutdottv @dimension20official

You're supposed to be really good about paying your workers and liking unions and taking care of people, aren't you? Stop crashing out the ends of your shows so you can make more faster and give your performers enough time to tell their stories and take a fucking break!

Please. Give your players one further week of episode and some more time between them. This cannot possibly be a sustainable pace and the cracks ARE showing.

Does anyone else think about how Celine must be one, if not the strongest Hunter in the history of the KPDH world?

This woman spent no less than a decade and a half fighting off the forces of Gwi-Ma presumably all on her own, along with keeping the Honmoon intact long enough for the next generation of Hunters to be trained BY HER ALONE and take over.

We don't know if any other generation of Hunters suffered a similar fate as the Sunlight Sisters, but surely they weren't left with only one Hunter to defend the world on her own for as long as Celine did. Right???

Of course, Rumi is the main protagonist of the movie, but Celine has major Anakin Skywalker vibes to me. There's no prophecy of the chosen one in KPDH (yet) but if there was, Celine would definitely have to be the one.

Again, Celine fought what had to be countless demons completely alone for over a decade, kept the Honmoon alive, and on top of all that she raised the next generation of Hunters. Like are we kidding here???

Celine brought balance to the Force, I don't care what y'all say

[bloodyshadow1]

Many thoughts. I also love to think about how the honmoon had to be in worse shape after miyeong died, that we as viewers have seen.

After a 2 week beef with the saja boys, huntrix's honmoon went from almost gold to tons of breaches. That was simply fans, as far as they knew, deciding to back a different band than huntrix. The girls are exhausted and covered in bruises. They say they've never seen the honmoon so bad, which means it wasn't falling apart when the took over as hunters.

Imagine that instead of a beef, one of the most famous idols in South Korea died, from child birth apparently. The sunlight sisters are gone for good, one of them is dead. Not to mentiom with the ways Korea views idols, miyeongs name was probably dragged through the mud.

Yet somehow, celine not only survived long enough to train the next generation, raise rumi from a baby, and made sure there was a world and honmoon to protect when huntrix debuted.

Whatever failings she had, no one can say celine wasn't a monster of a hunter

Sometimes it’s 3am and you’re trying to get back to sleep because your brain won’t stop whirring and that’s still ok, your progress didn’t back slide. Healing isn’t linear.

some notes on Dinosaur Girl

[the-delulu-main-character]

1) yes this is a screenshot of a screenshot bc why not

2) i hc aang is pansexual bc as a wise pinterest commenter said, “you can’t trap air in a closet”

3) queer aang scratches my brain very yummily

4) fic material: aang comes out to katara as pan while she’s cooking food and she hold up a pan in confusion

Kind of love the hubris of wizards. The heirloom sphere, the folding halls of Halas, or most importantly, the archmages bane.

Three wizards that we know personally have gone into halas' honey pot that was made to kill/trap other wizards with no martial party members or a healer. The last time Caleb was in the happy fun ball, a golem put a collar around his neck and left him helpless. When he got freed, he headed said golem bevause it heals from fire.

I get that Caleb is at least level 20, but gods damn the arrogance of wizards
