fanart of Nemesis from Hades 2, wearing a modern outfit (red jeans, black crop top with the Hades sigil as a pattern on it), moon shaped necklace, tattoos on her left arm and pecs, as she's about to tie her hair using a green hairband, her eyes closed (green light on her right side cause she's standing next to Melinoe's glowing arm, off camera)

fanart of Melinoe from Hades 2, wearing a modern outfit (dark jeans, orange top), she has a big tattoo on her right arm, and is about to tie her hair with a hair band (is this how it's called in english ?) her eyes are closed, she has nice arm muscles and looks extremely lesbian

Returning to this on the off chance that you haven't otherwise seen - there's now been an announcement of an announcement (which is somewhat ridiculous) about Season 3 on August 31st

The movie version of Hidden Inventory/Premature Death having now had its global release is a positive sign for news for Season 3 sometime soon (also the movie is banger as a recut, to the extent where I'd likely recommend it over watching the episodes to someone)

I watched Chungking Express right as I began to accept that someone who I thought I was really close to had just cut me out of their life with no warning or explanation, and so the first section of the film hit me like a tonne of bricks. I don't know if anyone gets yearning like Wong Kar Wai

(I also think it has other benefits beyond that in the slow process of telling Google less about myself, and it means that I have to be more proactive about actually saving a video I might want to watch again somewhere, building intentionality into how I engage with tech has been a focus for me)

I feel you on the struggling with casually watching through short form content. It's a bit extreme, but if you just turn off Watch History on YouTube then it will kill your ability to just go onto the shorts tab and get algorithmically recommended short form content there

I don't know if there's an easy way to address this, but it feels like a miss that if you're a non-subscriber and you've already read your free articles, you can't read this article, which is trying to sell you on subscribing. (I'm waiting until I've got more of a stable income to subscribe)

A friend was explaining how things have been going so far to me the other day and someone else was insisting that there had to be a next season which just wasn't announced yet, and I realised mid conversation they were doing a Sherlock Secret Fourth Episode. Impressive that this is happening again

The fact you could write an entire article on the HBO Harry Potter show without even nodding in the direction of any of the controversy surrounding it existing just seems so... something. It has the feel of a reworded press release, grain for the content mill.

My friend told me the Switch 2 was gonna release in June, so I was deeply disappointed when I saw news sites post about the Switch 2's release date when it got revealed. I already knew that, why you gotta write about it? This is the problem with games media, and only Spim Janfeller can save us

Particularly Insight's commentary on the way in which people allow themselves to be swept along into mob violence whilst at no point possibly considering that they might be the bad guys in all of this, as well as the dangers of where political fatigue can lead

I think that Crowds does actually broadly hold up to scrutiny, having rewatched it semi recently. It could be fairly criticised for overly condensing and simplifying what's actually necessary to pull people back from the brink of mob violence, but overall I think the themes and ideas are strong

If you've not watched Delicious in Dungeon yet that's an absolute must. I've also heard good things about The Apothecary Diaries, though I've not watched it yet

Just had a realisation as to why trans women love Balatro:

It allows us to reach E

The longest losing streak they've had is 5 internationals, from 2015 MSI until 2018 MSI. This is partly helped by the fact that MSI didn't start until 2015, so even though in Seasons 1-4 the LPL didn't win anything, only 4 official Riot international events were held in that time for them to not win

With BLG's loss in World Finals, the streak of international events (MSI or Worlds) without an LPL win has now extended to 3 in a row.

It's the first time the streak has reached 3 in a row since the LPL rose to international dominance in 2018, when RNG won MSI and IG won Worlds

Since I post so irregularly, I might as well actually put something on my profile, so I'm just gonna steal one of my own stats from after Worlds and post that
