I like to think that thanks to Jason's death, Dick's hair became straighter and let it grew bacause he couldn't care less. He was trying to be a good brother to Tim tho, and Timmy was trying to also be a good brother but you know, he was doing the best a little kid could know.

A thank you to my sister @lost-in-video-game-land for providing that lovely pic on pg3. It encompasses the frustration of the SS stamina gauge perfectly
Okok someone on Twitter brought up the parallel between Bor'dor and Essek in relation to their betrayal and now I wanna talk about it a bit right?
(spoilers for both C2/C3)
Essek - when it was revealed he was the traitor, the mighty nein sat his ass down, told him to tell them everything. Caleb went so far as to threaten his life (I hope you get to see the sun rise). The group takes a while to forgive him, but they do. They acknowledge his actions as a war criminal but they still call him a friend (or significant other).
Bor'dor - a man of his own trauma filled past. When he lashed out at people who killed his friends, his "found family", he was tied up and killed. The life was LITERALLY drained from his body while they stood there and watched, encouraged even.
The mighty nein famously were untrusting (looking at you, bowl gate). It took 50+ episodes for them to come to the emotional vulnerability to admit how much they cared for each other.
The bells hells, on the other hand, are trusting. They care about each other deeply. And they were calling each other family and friends nearly off the bat.
And when the worst happens, when they are betrayed by people they have grown to trust, the outcomes could not be more different. The mighty nein forgive their friend, the legitimate war criminal who started a REAL WAR where thousands died. They kept his secret. Because he was their friend. And Bor'dor? The man on the other side of a theological disagreement? Who was working for Ludinus, but when a group of 7 break into your base of operations and murder dozens of your friends and family, how different is it really? The man who lost everything, and had a chance at revenge, Real Tangible revenge on people who killed DOZENS of his friends/family. He is tied up. Executed. For his beliefs.
The difference between both these parties is very tangible in how they trust, but also.... How they forgive.

Here's the thing about the whole "Why should we care about the gods?" thing that keeps getting brought up: it's missing the point.
As an atheist, when I say I don't believe in any form of higher power, it's because there's no definitive proof of one. If one came down from on high and said "FYI we're real," I'd stop being an atheist, but that wouldn't automatically make me a follower.
So, to be clear: you can not be an atheist in Exandria unless you have an intelligence of 2. No one's an atheist. No one's denying the existence of the gods. Instead, they're denying their usefulness, and that's...concerning.
Characters keep asking "why should I believe in them" and "what have they ever done for me" and "what purpose do they really serve," and that's not the problem here.
If a god stood right in front of me and told me they were real, I'd stop being an atheist. I would not become a follower of that god, but I'd stop denying their existence. Now that I know they exist and that they can be hurt and maybe even killed, I wouldn't just let someone try to kill them unprompted* and I certainly wouldn't demand an explanation for their purpose in life before doing so.
These gods of Exandria aren't just random metaphysical concepts. They have bodies. Bodies that get injured. Bodies that can be destroyed. Bodies that can die.
They are living (in a fictional sense, don't be weird about it) beings with high intelligence and emotions, but sure, let's stop to debate their usefulness to society before killing/saving them. That's not a sketch conversation to be having.
Ludinus is trying to kill an entire group of "people" (you know what I mean), and instead of replying "genocide is bad," everyone's replying, "Should I really care?"
He's trying to kill an entire group of people.
He's trying to wipe out their entire culture of worship.
Ludinus is trying to commit (in a fictional sense, don't be weird about it) genocide while characters, and even some fans, are sitting here saying "okay so, is he really all that wrong, though?"
And yes, I know it's fake. It's not a real genocide of the gods and religion, but I feel like in both the fandom and the narrative, this concept has either been missed or forgotten. I just feel like people are viewing this issue too heavily through the lens of our world where these concepts are metaphysical and not really something you can tangibly kill so it doesn't really matter, but that's not the established lore.
This isn't an argument of whether gods exist in Exandria or not. They exist.
This isn't an argument about whether their commandments are fair or not. No one makes you follow them.
This is an argument of whether they should be allowed to continue living, and that's not a question you ask about other groups of people.
*Before anyone mentions Aeor, that was fully prompted. Aeor was making weapons to kill them. The gods were fully justified in killing them first. You don't wait for the person robbing you to shoot you before trying to escape. So far, none of the lore shows the Prime Deities intentionally hurting people unprompted. And it's not even like they're bad world leaders or something, they don't really bother Exandria much outside of what their followers may do from time to time but it's not like they're running the world.

I think it’s due to a combination of having to endure people saying that Caleb was clearly overreacting about Trent and people being disappointed that Brennan decided to make the genocidal betrayer gods the bad guys of EXU Calamity instead of Pelor, but seeing ‘Ludinus has a point’ takes just make me go all hackles raised.
Just rewatching 3x43 for no real reason but Matt mentioned the fact that predathos left twisted life forms in its wake....
Anyway remember the Darrington Brigade where a meteor falls to exandria, making the wolves and the duck (quackthulu my beloved) super fucked? And then they turned the meteor over to a member of the assembly???
I'm sure that means nothing....

Do you ever have a weird compulsion to do math? Do you like Critical Role? ME TOO!
Now dear reader you may wonder what that has to do with anything and let me tell you, it means that I create the weirdest math problems to try and solve, and cannot physically rest before I have done them. The following post is brought to you from my 1 am musings:
Assuming that the Great Ruiner was proportioned correctly when he punched Marquet into being a desert, how big would he have been?
Let's start off with some assumptions:
1. The desert of Marquet is 1000 mi x 1000 mi. This is likely not accurate but given how crazy these numbers are about to get I doubt it matters all that much, it was just my best guess.
2. The average area for a fist for an adult male is 27 in^2 (source Google)
3. I am an idiot for working in freedom units and will rectify this shortly.
4. The Great Ruiner has a height of about 6 ft (1.8m) which honestly is probably too short but this is about to get stupid so let's keep him short.
Ok math time:
So let's start with trying to find the growth factor (x) for our devious god, aka what we are multiplying our normal fist size by to get the final fist size.
27in^2 × x = 1,000,000 mi^2
But those are different units and honestly imperial sucks so let's change it to metric.
0.02m^2 × x = 2.59e12 m^2
Big numbers but that's ok, let's use some algebra and solve:
x = 1.295e14
Now we have our growth factor! Excellent! So all we have to do now is take the height of our god started at and multiply it by our growth factor! (Also: 6ft -> 1.8 m)
1.8 m × 1.295e14 = 2.33e14 m = 2.33e11 km
Well that's a big number, let's put it in some context! The first thing I thought when I saw that was "oh god 233 billion km... How big is a light year?"
LUCKILY! 2.33e11 km = 0.02 light years. Thank God we're still in the solar system.
So what's the best unit to use here? Astronomical units (AU)! 1 AU is defined as the roughly 93 million miles (148 million km) distance between the earth and sun. So how big is our betrayer god in these units?
1557.5 AU!!!!
Context for a number like that: the Kuiper Belt (the asteroid field past Neptune) ranges only from 35-55AU!! The oort cloud (the farthest reaches of our solar system) stretches from 2,000 AU- 100,000 AU from the sun.
SO!! If my math is correct (it's probably not, someone correct me) when the Great Ruiner punched Marquet, he was nearly as tall as the inner reaches oort cloud....
In conclusion: what the fuck Matthew Mercer.
