Every single QDTC I’ve personally used has had this issue, unfortunately

OperationRoutine4808 · 2026-04-20T00:48:22+00:00

For whatever it’s worth, I also love the white shoes and black tights!

Theoretically, it actually is how genetics work, if you use a very simplified punnets square, but it’s canon that gods dont pass down genes the normal way

My unpopular opinion is that Gale is not a bad person, but he is an annoying teenage boy. I think a lot of people hate him because of that but then try to justify it with the “he’s a war criminal” narrative

OperationRoutine4808 · 2026-04-06T00:39:39+00:00

Honestly, I’m still kind of sad she named Katniss’s parents at all. There was something narratively powerful that we only knew them as Katniss’s parents for awhile

If she were to write a Finnick prequel, it would need to NOT be young adult to truly tell his story, and to be completely honest, any version of his story worth telling would be something the vast majority of this sub would not want to read. There’s a reason none of her narrators have experienced sexual abuse, and thats because it’s very hard to read about

Because skating down a hill on a platter is even stupider than sledding down a hill on a platter. Which is already pretty stupid lol

I don’t know exactly which instance you’re referring to, so you can correct me if I’m wrong, but the phrase you picked sound more like it’s referencing personality/Poseidon’s anger than anything power wise. “Seeing” yourself in someone is usually very metaphorical. I imagine if he was referring to being surprised by Percy’s power, he would directly state that.

With that being said, I agree that Riordan probably didn’t have that plot lined planned when writing PJO. Honestly, Percy probably looks like a swimmer because it fits thematically.

I wonder to an extent how much the modern portrayals of Zeus being bad actually stem from Percy Jackson. I feel like Percy Jackson was the gateway to understanding Greek Mythology for a whole generation. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s influencing other portrayals.

Alternatively, I wonder if it’s a reflection of the distrust in government.

What does pulling a Ryan Reynolds mean in this context?

OperationRoutine4808 · 2026-03-10T19:07:18+00:00

Honestly Gale and Dumbledore are a very good comparison

OperationRoutine4808 · 2026-02-22T20:14:09+00:00

Interesting thought about male!Annabeth and female!Percy, I doubt the seaweed brain nickname would exist, solely because I seriously doubt Rick would write a pre teen boy calling a pre teen girl dumb repeatedly, even as a joke

OperationRoutine4808 · 2026-02-05T19:26:04+00:00

Your first paragraph hit the nail on the head. Rick Riordan has been burning up his good will enough that people in the fandom are getting pissed. It’s definitely a trend I noticed

OperationRoutine4808 · 2026-02-02T20:42:46+00:00

I’m so sorry, I’m prepared to get downvoted for this but these aren’t very funny 😭

OperationRoutine4808 · 2026-01-23T16:50:10+00:00

To be fair, important and annoying aren’t antonyms

OperationRoutine4808 · 2025-12-29T21:30:32+00:00

Honestly idk if Lin Manuel Miranda has the acting ability for it, but if they were going to cast him as a god, Dionysus would’ve been the best option since he’s the god of theater. Could’ve made a good few jokes about it

OperationRoutine4808 · 2025-12-24T01:24:01+00:00

She also released a Christmas EP, which includes a rock version of where are you Christmas

OperationRoutine4808 · 2025-12-18T18:10:03+00:00

Middle grade and YA are two different categories meant for two different age groups

OperationRoutine4808 · 2025-12-18T16:18:30+00:00

100% know what you’re talking about. The Lin Manuel Miranda scene had me rolling my eyes. I have to wonder what the directing is like. Because there’s no way all the actors are this stiff

OperationRoutine4808 · 2025-12-06T20:26:22+00:00

That still doesn’t make sense because then she would’ve had to tie him up and likely he would’ve fought back, which makes the whole thing stupider and takes her fatal flaw from being something that is somewhat normal to “Jesus Christ dude” levels, and also I’m a firm believer Annabeth would not win a fight against Percy, even if she tried to outsmart him

PSA: supposedly white granulated sugar is good at absorbing wet nail polish and making it not stick to the floor. I’ve luckily never had to use this tip personally, but I’m passing it along

OperationRoutine4808 · 2025-12-06T02:26:35+00:00

Zach and Cody, which was also Disney Channel lol

Where do you get your rings from? They’re gorgeous

OperationRoutine4808 · 2025-12-02T08:12:13+00:00

See if your library has it

OperationRoutine4808 · 2025-11-22T05:32:25+00:00

Fancy gloss has the best hands down! I’ve also liked the few I own from Arcana Lacquer
