for the year list - multiples of 5

Thanks!!! :D

5. TV show of the year?

I don't watch a lot of new tv bc I don't subscribe to any streaming services :(

But I did rewatch over the garden wall!!

10. Something that made you cry this year?

This song!! It's not in english so I'll say for context that it's an arrangement for a poem by Eino Leino, essentially a love song for nature. I always interpreted it kind of literally, as having an undercurrent of grief about biodiversity loss, which also works as a metaphor for a variety of things.

Also went to a funeral :(

15. What’s a bad habit you picked up this year?

I'm happy to say I don't think I picked up any! Or at least any I can think of.

20. What’s something you learned this year?

Building an SQL + Node.js backend for a web app >:)

25. Did you create any characters (in games, art, or writing) this year? Describe one

I made two Mörk Borg characters for Mörk Borg fanfic (I wanted to play and write down a one shot campaign by myself to try it out before I try to run it for my friends who don't play any ttrpgs...)

Rost, the pov character, is a military deserter who got lost in weird haunted moorlands and found a monastery of dark fantasy Orthodox nuns who are devoted to some kind of heretical sun deity (I rolled a spell scroll called "Palms Open The Eastern Gate" for my other character, one of the nuns). Rost was like hey can you protect me if I do work for you in exchange and the abbess was like yes but you are going to have to go through our initiation rites first so we can make sure you stay loyal (I rolled the trait "Blasphemous tattoos" for Rost.. but I couldn't think of anything blasphemous. so really it's heretical tattoos.) The personality traits I rolled for Rost are CRUEL and NIHILISTIC. They are a crossbow sharpshooter with not a lot of Strength (short) but a good Presence score (intuition, good aim, untapped talent for the occult).

1 thru 5 for the music asks!

1. Name your top three favorite songs.

completely impossible to answer in a general sense! different songs have meant different things to me at different times in my life, and i like it that way. my taste in music grows and changes with me, and trying to hold on to my old favorites just because i’ve decided they’re “favorites” isn’t something i’m interested in doing

i’ve been on a decemberists kick lately, so ig my three current faves are songs of theirs. uh, “cavalry captain,” “song for myla goldberg,” and...... “i was meant for the stage”

2. Do you have a favorite band?

in the general sense no! but again i’ve been listening to a lot of decemberists lately, so currently them

3. What are you top five bands?

uh let’s see. the mountain goats, the decemberists, anais mitchell, iron & wine, and feist maybe

i think i’ve listed that exact top five before lmao oof i need to listen to some new music

4. Favorite album cover?

this is real good question. for a long time i’ve cited neil young’s on the beach as an extremely aesthetically pleasing album cover. some others, just off the top of my head: ghost on ghost by iron & wine, the bees made honey in the lion’s skull by earth, la grande by laura gibson, grinderman 2 by grinderman, hadestown by anais mitchell

5. What’s an album that you prefer to listen straight through instead of shuffled?

all of them. i’m kind of pretentious about this ig, but imo an album is a work of art in itself, not just a collection of songs. there’s thought put into the order of the tracks, and i like to follow that order when i’m listening to a given album

on the other hand i’ve got that adhd brain so i don’t always listen to albums all the way through. and ofc if it’s a playlist or whatever you should shuffle it. but if you’re listening to an album for the sake of listening to that album, do the artist a favor and listen to the songs in order

#immediate unshakeable thought was 'big bitch on the move'

that’s right!!

On one level I find the low-level cups interesting because part of the challenge is simply figuring out how to get strong Pokémon with passable movesets at those levels within the confines of the gameboy games, like “oh if I fish in the safari zone I can catch a level 15 dragonair and feed it a bunch of TMs” or “what’s the lowest level at which I can find this one Pokémon to trade to an NPC” and that’s a neat challenge that’s pretty much entirely unique to the stadium games

It’s just, y’know, making a move capable of two-hit-killing the ENTIRE TIER legal and then deliberately giving it to the NPC opponents was an incredibly bullshit move
