I Generally Try To Keep This Account To Fandom Stuff, But I Don't Really Have Anywhere Else To Rant About

I generally try to keep this account to Fandom stuff, but I don't really have anywhere else to rant about this. So, it's going on here.

In regards to the TikTok Little Red Book protest going on; I do want to point out that the reactions from the Americans about seemingly mundane stuff that should be obvious is actually pretty normal for Americans that are experiencing life outside of the U.S. for the first time. We're so used to the fucked up parts of our country that it's easy to forget how bad it is. That the idea of something like Universal Healthcare, for example, isn't some revolutionary thing but the norm in most places. It's like living with chronic pain or an abusive family. You know it's not right, but it's your normal. That's what you know, and you're so busy managing it that fixing it seems so far out of reach that it's barely worth thinking about. So you grit your teeth and act like you're fine because it's normal. Because if it's not normal, well...

I do love seeing the connections and interactions this is causing, though. It's what the internet was made for. What all these social media platforms were made for. I've moved a lot, lived in a lot of places, and I've found that people are the same wherever you go. Mild tweaks here and there, but humans are humans. And I love seeing people realize that.

I do hope something good comes from this protest. And make no mistake, that's what this is. A protest built on spite. In fact, it kind of reminds me of the Boston Tea Party (albite with less property damage). It wasn't about the tea in the same way this isn't about TikTok. They're both a result of the people feeling ignored by their government and actively giving Big Brother the middle finger.

But i am glad that, the very least, people are making connections that, under any other circumstance, may never have happened. It's a lovely thing to see, and i hope something good comes from all of it.

During the cleanup of Chuuya and Verlaine’s fight, Dazai finds out there was another clone in Facility B and decides to retrieve it while Chuuya is recovering from his first time using Corruption. Chuuya navigates being in the Port Mafia and taking care of his new little brother, and Dazai navigates the new dynamic in his an Chuuya’s partnership. Not that Dazai cares ... right?

Happy Halloween! This chapter isn't Halloween themed, but i figured I'd give out a treat today. I hope you all enjoy!

Exerpt:

The clone cocked his head. “Do you really not remember anything? Dazai said that you didn’t, but if that’s a lie then I won’t tell.”

Chuuya threw his phone on the coffee table. “I … I know but I don’t remember if that makes sense. I remembered Verlaine and Rimbaud breaking me out of containment. I remember rage and hate and … and pain, but … nothing specific.”

The clone nodded and muttered, “Rage.” He looked up at Chuuya. “Does anyone else know?”

“Eh … Kinda? Technically, I told Dazai and the Boss, but I don’t think they put together that I was talking about myself. As far as they know, I don’t remember a damn thing.”

Arlene returns to the Tower and has a chat with Zahard. AKA, What if Arlene is Phantaminum?

Instead of working on what I’m supposed to, I wrote a short one off theory/”What if?” scenario for Tower of God of Arlene being Phantaminum’s real identity. If your interested, give it a read and tell me what you think.

So, the anime I May Be a Guild Receptionist, But I'll Solo Any Boss to Clock Out on Time is hilarious. Only two episodes have been dubbed on CrunchyRoll (I'm too lazy for sub, sue me), but as an adult who's worked in customer service and had to pull double shifts and deal with shitty customers, it's pretty good so far. I highly recommend it.

So, I've been reading the webtoon for Tower of God after watching the anime and came across something that I'm sure is unintentional, but hilarious none the less. In ep. 101 of the Webtoon, Rak says "Son of a turtle," which implies that "turtle" equates at least loosely to "bitch." So Rak has been calling everyone "bitch" the entire time and I think that just makes it so much funnier.

Anytime I'm concerned about fucking something up, I remember that this made it into an academic text and I suddenly don't feel so bad anymore.

Chapter 13 is up as of today! If you choose to read, I hope you enjoy! Excerpt from the new chapter is below:

Neil,” Kein sighed, “how the hell did you not think to mention that you knew their cousin?”

“Oh, excuse the fuck out of me for not realizing that the one Mexican I met in fucking Berlin was related to these two!” Neil yelled.

Handcuffs are completely useless when it comes to Soukoku. Dazai appears to be an expert at lockpicking and can escape whenever he feels like it. And if Chuuya can't just break the cuffs, the dude spent almost eight years fighting with his hands in his pockets, so he doesn't really need 'em. So, overall assessment: handcuffs are completely useless on Soukoku.

So, realistically, how much do we think Dazai actually plans versus him just being really good at taking advantage of any situation/getting lucky and just claiming he had a plan all along? Just him being like:

Dazai: "Everything's going according to plan."

Insert Chatacter Here: "Everything's literally on fire."

Dazai, not expecting to get this far in life let alone this situation: "Which was my plan all along. Obviously. Keep up."
