Just finished rewatching Dead Boy Detectives. This show is so good. The writing, the characters, the actors... everything.
It's art.

Wally came up with this, makes us do it at every reunion.
There is nothing better in life than hearing your favourite song playing through the grocery store speakers.
Does anyone else just sit and think about the fact that Six of Crows is literally the perfect book?
Like, we have a morally grey character who's actually morally grey and has a real reason to push people away other than "once I killed someone in self defense, so I'm a terrible person and we can't be together." And every other character has a super fleshed out backstory as well, including real world problems that don't usually get talked about in fantasy books.
There's just as heavy an emphasis on platonic love as romantic love, instead of "I can fix him", it's "he can fix himself", there's a gay couple that's actually happy and not suffering every five pages, and all of the gay characters have personality traits outside of the fact that they're gay.
And speaking of the romance, it's so not rushed or sexualized. No one even kisses in the first book, but it's still so obvious how much they love each other. Each couple has such a different dynamic, and the way their pasts mirror each other? Perfection. (I also firmly believe that Kanej is the best couple in all of YA prove me wrong)
And then the diversity??? 3/7 of the lead characters are POCs, 4/7 are queer, 3 have disabilities, 2 have addictions, 2 have PTSD, 2 are religious, one was raised in a cult, and it's not one of those books that has diverse characters just for the sake of being diverse!
The plot is so unique, especially among fantasy books, and despite the fact that there's so many moving parts, there is not a single plot hole. And the CK auction scene will forever be one of the best end of series climaxes I have ever read.
So basically I don't get why other authors even try anymore cause I'm sorry but no matter how great their books are, it's not going to be Six of Crows.
got a latin final today.
wish me luck
my english lit teacher made us listen to david bowie's songs during a class to teach us vocabulary.
he is an icon.
I don't know if it's the same in every country, but I know that in France you have to be of a certain weight (more than 50kg) to be able to donate blood.
So I guess since I'm a small human (like pocket-sized, I am considered the smallest person of my class, and even have a title because of that, a not so glorious one but it's just part of my school's funny traditions anyway), I can't donate blood, or I could if I eat before !
