I'm very tall and when I worked in retail, and my coworkers wanted something high up on a storage shelf, they'd get me to grab it for them and they'd stand there and watch and say "Go go gadget arms" and I think about that a lot.

Are The Pitt writers all reading the fanfics?

Jesus Christ, that episode. Talk about giving the viewers what they want. My love for Trinity Santos grows every day. And Mel confiding in her sister how she feels about Langdon and Robby. My sweet baby tortured blorbos. I was overcome with rage when the episode ended.

I dunno, ProWritingAid, I dunno if that would enhance it.

Get in loser, we're taking over the North.

I had already been spoiled as to the setting twist in The Shattered Sea world.

But I couldn't stop grinning when Skifr the sorceress just straight up pulled out a gun to save the day. She really had a Behold the most powerful spell of all, are you ready to meet God? moment. She's all out of spells but she ain't out of shells. Really went 'Parry this, you filthy causal' and shot six people. And then like the Father of Swords in the First Law world, which has to be blooded every time it is drawn, she reveals she can't put it away until she has emptied the mag, which holds seven rounds, meaning her 'elf weapon from the before-times' is quite possibly a Desert Eagle (the fifty calibre version specifically), a fact which is fucking sending me.

James Cameron needs to use Sympathy For The Devil by the Rolling Stones in the trailer for The Devils.

I feel like the lyrics would match well with introductory shots of most of the characters.

'Let me please introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste' - Baron Rikard

'I've been around for a long, long year, stole many a man's soul and faith' - Jakob

'but what's troubling you is the nature of my game' - Balthazar

'Just as every cop is a criminal, and all the sinners saints' - Brother Diaz

'As heads is tails just call me lucifer coz I'm in need of some restraint' - vigga

Etc etc

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk

DEFINITELY NOT GNAWING AT MY COMPUTER MONITOR WATCHING THIS SCENE

Like a desperate, feral goblin boy. Couldn't be me. No sir.

Oh, great

Laura Bailey has voiced yet another hot character and I have to pretend to be normal about it. SMH

Rikke, Isern, and Shivers taking over the whole of the north while they possess two functioning eyeballs and one braincell between them was delightful.

They are all so messed up, uncouth, and dysfunctional and I love them.

After finishing the First Law, Age of Madness, and standalones, I have scientifically concluded that Sand Dan Fucking Glokta is the most babygirl character in the setting.

Secretly orchestrating a communist revolution because the banks are owned by the evil wizard who threatened your adopted daughter, from a wheelchair, has got to be the most Character thing ever.

One of the saddest parts of The Wisdom of Crowds is

Hildi ending up serving Bayaz. She deserved so much better. Joe Abercrombie, it's on sight, you monster.

Joe Abercrombie: Okay so there's this girl.

Me: ok

JA: And she's not like the other girls. She's a bit of an outcast, has a witchy vibe, her hair is a mess, she has tattoos and symbols painted on her. She does drugs and wears several necklaces of runes and bones and people think she's fae or something because she's always awkwardly staring into space. Oh and get this, she has a septum piercing.

Me: Oh wow, I bet if I ever met her she'd tell me my future.

JA: Mate, you're not gonna believe this....

For me, the most heartwrenching part of The First Law books and standalones is

Wonderful admitting that she went home to see her husband and kids four years ago and they'd disappeared. And since then she's been occasionally going to 'visit' them to save face in front of her comrades but was just really going fishing for a few days. And she never felt like she could tell her friends because theyd make a fuss, so she just kept up the facade, kept talking about them like they were still home on the farm when she didn't even know if they were still alive. Joe Abercrombie you monster.
