Woke up to being sent a bad MCU stan opinion on Seven Samurai. The movie was too long and self indulgent, the MCU stan said. Unlike Endgame, which was amazing or some shit.

My mom is getting her 2nd vaccine shot this Saturday. FINGERS CROSSED HER BODY DOESN'T GIVE HER SHIT FOR IT.
๐ Shauntae ๐
I want--Starbucks.
๐ Shauntae ๐
Mostly, the egg bites.
๐ Shauntae ๐
Also got up too late for McDonald's breakfast.
๐ Shauntae ๐
I missed the hash browns.
๐ Shauntae ๐
The hibiscus refreshers must be gone for the season. RIP me.
๐ Shauntae ๐
I could walk to the variety story where Alan works, but also, I don't want to go there when it's lunch rush.
๐ Shauntae ๐
Maxie has been such a crybaby today.
๐ Shauntae ๐
He doesn't know what he wants in his little kitty life.
๐ Shauntae ๐
Eek, looks like we missed the final property tax payment. Got a letter saying we need to pay ASAP to avoid a lien. I told Eli. They said they'll take care of it.
๐ Shauntae ๐
$206, sighs. That's it for the payment???
๐ Shauntae ๐
MAN I HATE ANXIETY
๐ Shauntae ๐
IT'S BEEN PAID.
๐ Shauntae ๐
Mixed a new batch of hair oil mask for Eli. This time, I switched out the coconut oil for grape seed oil, to give their hair a rest from the coconut oil.
๐ Shauntae ๐
Three parts grape seed oil, one part castor seed oil, and some rosemary and thyme oil.
๐ Shauntae ๐
People keep talking about using fermented rice water for hair, but honest to god, I've smelled that stuff, and it smells like burps. I can't.
๐ Shauntae ๐
I can't deal anything that reminds me of real puke.
๐ Shauntae ๐
I CAN WRITE CHARACTERS VOMITING OUT THEIR GUTS, BUT CAN'T HANDLE CAT VOMIT.
๐ Shauntae ๐
nuggets
rip terry.
๐ Shauntae ๐
Things I want to buy, a resistance band so I can build up to doing squats. Walking is okay, but anything faster than that, and I'm stuck limping or a week. Thanks, bad leg.
๐ Shauntae ๐
I might get flaxseeds to try making flaxseed gel for my hair. That stuff does look like jizz, though. So.
๐ Shauntae ๐
I def need more vitamin e.
๐ Shauntae ๐
UPDATE IS UP
๐ Shauntae ๐
Taking tomorrow off since I have therapy.
๐ Shauntae ๐
I remember someone saying that a good love triangle is about using the two love interests to highlight the conflicting sides of the lead's personality.
THE SHUNT
๐ค i remember this too but idk how i feel about it tbh
THE SHUNT
i can't think of a single love triangle that hasn't been at the very least irritating filler
๐ Shauntae ๐
that--yanno, true.
THE SHUNT
like in theory, i think its an interesting point, but i've never seen it in practice
๐ Shauntae ๐
issue is most of the time, the author realizes that the romantic interest that represents the bad side of the lead is usually the better one and CAN'T HAVE THAT.
THE SHUNT
VERY GOOD POINT HONESTLY
THE SHUNT
the weakness here seems not to necessarily be the love triangle itself, but the fact that coding everything in a binary way is very tedious
๐ Shauntae ๐
yeah.
THE SHUNT
'good' traits are extremely boring & kind like... standard in most people? like most Bad Guy Love Interests ALSO have some of the standard stuff
๐ Shauntae ๐
see, i cheat and just have poly.
THE SHUNT
but in ADDITION they are evil
THE SHUNT
LOL I AGREE FULLY
THE SHUNT
i made shithead first for rotten john but then i made oolala and i was like wait.. damn...
๐ Shauntae ๐
they are evil and are allowed to have flare.
THE SHUNT
SOLUTION: THEY ARE JUST POLY
THE SHUNT
PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!
๐ Shauntae ๐
pOLY FOR JOHN.
THE SHUNT
every gets a little himbo, as a treat
๐ Shauntae ๐
yes.
๐ Shauntae ๐
the worst love triangle i ever experienced was in the hunger games.
๐ Shauntae ๐
fucking HATED peeta
THE SHUNT
I ACTUALLY READ THE HUNGER GAMES AFTER THE FIRST MOVIE, LIKE THE WHOLE SERIES, AND BOY OH BOY!! YIKES!! PEETA!!!
THE SHUNT
i wanted katniss to live alone in the woods, thats what she deserved
๐ Shauntae ๐
THE SHUNT
: I WANTED THE SAME. i wanted her to go off and live with some of the other champions she liked.
THE SHUNT
that seemed like the obvious choice to me and yet... That Ending lol
๐ Shauntae ๐
peeta was--man it was fucked up how their relationship was described.
THE SHUNT
just let her hunt deer in the woods in peace
THE SHUNT
that was a real lose/lose relationship lol
๐ Shauntae ๐
he pushed for kids.
๐ Shauntae ๐
that.
THE SHUNT
๐ Shauntae ๐
and she had them and felt scared. GREAT.
THE SHUNT
really great relationship there. nice one
THE SHUNT
excellent stuff
๐ Shauntae ๐
like i get not every ending is happy but like i feel the woods thing would be bittersweet. lost so much that she retreats.
๐ Shauntae ๐
and lives in quiet. continuing on.
THE SHUNT
god now i'm thinking of the end of the harry potter series & that dismal epilogue after an even more dismal book lmfao
THE SHUNT
why do you do this YA authors
๐ Shauntae ๐
sometimes i wonder if it's burn out.
๐ Shauntae ๐
like fuck u, kids. i want to go write adult shit.
THE SHUNT
now that i've finished my series after years of work i'm going to stick a subpart ao3 fanfic at the end
THE SHUNT
maybe thats the trade off for stephen king being so prolific. by the time he gets to the end he just gives up lmao
THE SHUNT
'YEAH IDK, I GUESS IT WAS AN ALIEN CHILD OR WHATEVER'
THE SHUNT
'I GUESS GOD DETONATES THE NUKE'
๐ Shauntae ๐
'SPIDER'
THE SHUNT
DJSJDLASDJLAS ALFDSGF
GK DJSSPIDER!!!!!
GK DJSSPIDER!!!!!
THE SHUNT
stephen king does like 10 lines of coke and sits still for an agonizing 3 seconds and shouts SPIDER!!!! at the top of his lungs and the keyboard clacking drowns out all other sounds
๐ Shauntae ๐
FUCK
๐ Shauntae ๐
meanwhile, he was so drunk when writing cujo, he doesn't even REMEMBER IT.
๐ Shauntae ๐
only time i drank, i just felt gross after. no manuscripts apeared.
THE SHUNT
i've never done anything of even middling quality while drunk, it just looks like i got about 90% lazier in my line cohesion
THE SHUNT
i can't imagine getting wasted and writing an entire book lmao
THE SHUNT
WRITING AN ENTIRE BOOK & NOT REMEMBERING IT
THE SHUNT
his editors were the real mvps during this time i assume
THE SHUNT
well got another manuscript with coke residue on it folks time to do some spellchecking
๐ Shauntae ๐
his editors sighing when king turns in a manuscript and there's someone taking a shit again.
THE SHUNT
haksdhkjadhskHAHHAAHAHAHAH
๐ Shauntae ๐
i almost included the constipation thing that happens during pregnancy in the rabbit died, but hONESTLY, POOP.
๐ Shauntae ๐
HAZEL AND QUINTANA HAVE ENOUGH PROBLEMS.
THE SHUNT
I THINK A MAJORITY OF US, AS A SPECIES, CAN AGREE THAT POOP JUST DOESN'T ADD ANYTHING TO A STORY
THE SHUNT
thinks abt grrm's choice to write a full diarrhea scene w/dany
๐ Shauntae ๐
.......W H A T
THE SHUNT
she gets the runs and like, alternates betweening pooping in a river & also drinking from the river bcuz she's dehydrated? anyway i'll never read another grrm book again & i'm relieved i didn't pay for them
THE SHUNT
my scalding hot take: grrm isn't a very good writer & literally every writer i am friends with is 69,420% better than he is
๐ Shauntae ๐
she drank from the same river...
she drank from the same river...
๐ Shauntae ๐
oh god now i'm remembering the shit weasels.
THE SHUNT
thats her last scene in the last book i think, its been a long time & i'm gonna be honest most of his work just slides out of my brain lol
THE SHUNT
THE SHIT WEASELS. IT MAKES SENSE HE'D BE WRITING SHIT WEASELS HOPPED UP ON OPIATES, UNABLE TO SHIT AT ALL
๐ Shauntae ๐
i've never read grrm and i've had people tell me BUT YOU MUST.
THE SHUNT
THEY ARE WRONG
๐ Shauntae ๐
THE FUCKING SHIT WEASELS. JUST. SHOOTING OUT OF PEOPLE.
๐ Shauntae ๐
WAIT. I READ HIS SPACESHIP GHOST STORY.
๐ Shauntae ๐
it wasn't bad but also might be because it was SHORT.
THE SHUNT
OH THEY"RE IN DREAMCATCHER TOO!!!!
THE SHUNT
I FELL FOR THE HYPE, I TOOK THE BOOKS ON LOAN, AND I WOUND UP SKIMMING the last two!!! grrm is very much in love with the idea (even in the pre-hbo books, which is the majority of them) that he is the next coming of tolkien and it reeks
๐ Shauntae ๐
uuuuugh.
THE SHUNT
'oh but the politics!!!' the politics is basically the war of the roses??? is it really 'next level' to write a fantasy au of that??
THE SHUNT
like its just the comically insane battle for the english throne with dragons
THE SHUNT
i am trying really hard to think of a moment in the book where i would stop and just admire a sentence or something but i just didn't have any
๐ Shauntae ๐
the same person said grrm needed to be supported because his works are horny. and i was sorta like i could go online for horny stuff that i WANT to read.
THE SHUNT
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
THE SHUNT
ITS HORNY IF YOU LIKE 14YR OLD GIRLS GETTIN RAPED I GUESS LOL
THE SHUNT
also if you are creating a WHOLE WORLD, a whole FANTASY WORLD with DRAGONS, why are women still treated like flamin' hot garbage
๐ Shauntae ๐
this person also said there wasn't enough rape in GOT, so.
๐ Shauntae ๐
i'M ALSO JUST. MEDIEVAL FANTASY AVERSE.
๐ Shauntae ๐
IDK WHY.
๐ Shauntae ๐
At least, a lot of the post Tolkien fantasy stuff? I'm extra picky.
๐ Shauntae ๐
Honestly, I'd love if someone did a silly ass western with dragons.
THE SHUNT
its very unfair that so much Dragon Content is tied do bleak medieval fantasy
๐ Shauntae ๐
give me wild west dragon riders of pern but without the homophobic author.
THE SHUNT
GOD I REMEMBER BEING REALLY INTO THE PERN BOOKS... AT FIRST
THE SHUNT
i would be all happy to read them & then like slowly but surely i was holding them at arms length like uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
THE SHUNT
You Good Anne?
THE SHUNT
You Okay?
๐ Shauntae ๐
You okay there, Anne???
๐ Shauntae ๐
i liked the idea of it being on an alien planet. I LOVED THE ITTY BITTY FIRE LIZARDS.
๐ Shauntae ๐
and the thread.
THE SHUNT
yeah there are a lot of cool elements to that!! haha i remember there was a whole kind of scene where you joined this site i think, and would get to impress on a dragon and it was so much fucking drama bcuz ppl wanted Gold of course
๐ Shauntae ๐
oh my god.
THE SHUNT
this weird petty drama scene over what dragon you get randomly assigned (but you couldn't get a new one i think?? IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO)
๐ Shauntae ๐
and gold was rare.
๐ Shauntae ๐
GOD.
๐ Shauntae ๐
if i had the energy, i'd write wild west dragons.
THE SHUNT
i wish i could have one original dragon thought so i could do some kind of dragon themed comic
THE SHUNT
just any excuse
THE SHUNT
i have consumed too much dragon media however and any idea i have and start to write down i'm like wait, this is just from x book/movie/show jdklsajklf
๐ Shauntae ๐
lsjfkda yeah i kinda have experienced that when i was trying to write alien stuff.
๐ Shauntae ๐
but also with the rabbit died, i sorta embraced my media saturated ass.
THE SHUNT
it works rly well!!! i remain delighted about the playstation
๐ Shauntae ๐
i'M HAPPY WITH THE PLAYSTATION.
๐ Shauntae ๐
also using operation.
THE SHUNT
YEAH!!!!
๐ Shauntae ๐
i love the idea of magic being tied to small, kitchy items.
๐ Shauntae ๐
i keep staring at film robert's take.
๐ Shauntae ๐
maxie needs to be cuddled under my arm or he will SCREAM.
๐ Shauntae ๐
ANGIE IS HERE TOO?!
THE SHUNT
this guy is getting just nonstop bullied in this game
๐ Shauntae ๐

๐ Shauntae ๐
trying to decide if i want to do a hair mask tomorrow morning or just wait until the weekend.
๐ Shauntae ๐
CHOICES
๐ Shauntae ๐
the fact that it's canon that eugene bit a man's dick in both the walking dead show and comic makes me smile. don't fuck with the dweeb.
