“Ygraine, is our honored friend still where he was before?”

I literally just finished ACOC just a moment ago and I couldn't wait to write about it. Holy shit, I fucking loved this season. There were a couple of times where I was nearly crying along with some of the PCs.
First of all, this has been the first time I have witnessed a full character death and no way of returning in DnD that didn't have a real-world explanation. (Hero Squad was the first one I witness but the PC wasn't able to continue playing with them due to family things) Not even in my own campaign that I've been playing have we come close to even losing anyone yet. So, those moments of Amethar dropping multiple times, Lapin's death, and especially Jet's death was so emotional and I felt like I was right there with them.
The lore and the world-building of this world was so insane. I watched the behind-the-scenes episode as well and finding out just how much Brennan and everyone put into this season makes my little writer's heart sing. I have done that, I do that, and being able to see how others do that in their mediums is so inspiring. Even when Brennan was not pulling any fucking punches, it felt right for the world that was surrounding the characters cause in those moments, punches wouldn't be pulled.
This season was so crazy and I hung on to every moment of it. It's not one of my favorites but it's one of the most inspirational campaigns I have ever watched.
Now, I do believe it is time for me to watch the second season of The Unsleeping City. Wish me luck.

I don't live in Missouri anymore (I went to college in the state) but I saw this and had to reblog. Public libraries are so important for so many people. Students, parents, kids, the elderly, and anyone who needs a computer but can't afford one. Please please please do your part in helping.
A post I made a few days ago about the Missouri Legislature’s proposal to defund public libraries really blew up.
I’m happy to have helped spread the word about this issue as it’s not getting enough mainstream attention. But frustrated at the tone of the original post and the thought that it’s become a part of many people’s daily doomscroll.
This is bad, but there are things we all can and should do to make it better.
If you are a Missouri citizen, please go here and fill out the short form. It will use your address to contact your state senator about reinstating the full State Aid funding to Missouri’s libraries. You can also customize the message and I encourage you to do so.
If you have time and energy, consider calling your senator’s office as well. You can find out who your representatives are and find their contact information here. A short phone call letting them know you are a constituent and this issue is important to you can do a lot of good.
Ignore the naysayers who claim that contacting your representatives is a waste of time. I know people who intern in these offices and collect information on what the public contacts their representatives about. If enough people call about the same issue, it raises the profile of that issue on their agenda. It can make a difference, especially in a case like this where the mainstream media is not focusing on the story.
Please take a few minutes of your time if you are a Missourian to make your voice heard on the importance of libraries. And please reblog and spread the word even if you’re not a Missourian. With your help, maybe we won’t have to fight this fight in your homestate as well. Thank you.

Consider: A generally lighthearted buddy comedy movie about two characters, out of whom one is british and the other is american, who meet by happenstance and need to join forces to achieve some mutual goal, going from resentful strangers genuinely going "ugh why are british people like this/why are americans like that" to doing that as jovial roasting between good friends. But instead of it being two white dudes, it's two women, of whom one is British Indian and the other is Native American.
And peppered between the lighthearted banter and a running joke about peoples' confusion about the word "indian", every once in a while there's a brutally dark joke of either of them pointing out - and bonding over - their own generational trauma and the horrors of colonialism.
no one talk to me ever again I have died one hundred times over
scrolling twitter today and then coming over here is like walking out of a burning building and then walking into the calm remains of a building that burnt down 5 years ago and has been reclaimed by nature.
It's wild how many people took Kristen's line of questioning as her saying Tracker isn't taking her religion seriously instead of what I heard her asking which was:
How many of these people would be here if it wasn't religious Coachella?
