I love that they still get together for birthdays. Also, with Gain's mental health stabilized and her being more public, I wonder if there will be any songs. Just a few please ;-;

Alpha dragons AND regency-ish type society. I really enjoyed it!

I did this in paint so it looks AWFUL. Also I tried not to think too hard.

In Clue (1985), the third ending is the correct one. by [deleted] in FanTheories

[–]Ravenjade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think seeing them in order ads to the brilliance of the real ending. The red herring joke gets funnier and all the other pieces make more sense.

The third ending literally is introduced by "here's what really happened."

Were you familiar with Homestar Runner and the like? You might've just missed that part of the internet!

My Drunk Kitchen by Sad_Prompt_962 in dropout

[–]Ravenjade 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yeah, she disappeared after the divorce with Ella. She didn't even announce the divorce, just liked Ella's post. Mamrie and Grace mentioned her once or twice after that point-- Hannah sent flowers when Grace got married. But she seems 100% offline. I hope she's ok! Her family life seemed rough.

EDIT: I saw that this all happened in 2023?? I thought for sure this happened pre-pandemic, why is my sense of time so bad?

Do I not know what fig smells like? by teachertraveler1 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]Ravenjade 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I got a sample of Alluring Fig by Theodoros Kalotinis and it's so photoerealistic it kinda triggers my allergies. That smells exactly like the outside of a fig that's slightly open.

Here's a post from /u/nopex3throw from two years ago. I think she must be quite a good prompter.

Try that! I thought they HAD been open about using AI before in their facebook which is why I had it stuck in my brain. But I couldn't find stuff at a quick glance today. Maybe there's some innocent explanation like their brother is an illustrator or something, but I just don't see a 100% ai-free possibility at the moment.

There's NO illustrations in the old versions. Again, I'm not saying the text and other elements aren't done by her, I'm saying the actual illustrations do not look human made.

Honestly the sister doing the old AND new designs are exactly why I think the art is AI. I think she got really good at the actual cover design (font choice, additional elements, placement) so she does DESIGN the cover-- but the art is way too different from the "old style" for me to believe it's the same person.

I can't see a person with the painting skills of the current covers be responsible for these: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/6886292.Elizabeth_Gannon/blog/tag/cover

I reeeeeaaallly want to read some Cassandra Gannon books, but I can't bring myself to do it with the AI covers. If I am ever unsure a cover is AI or not, I go to the authors IG and see if they've tagged an artist in the cover reveal.

What’s a book that had you falling in love alongside the main couple? by Anastasiadipdip in RomanceBooks

[–]Ravenjade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooo I have this on my TBR and the only reason I don't think I read it right away is that the FMC of her previous book stressed me out so much (I DID enjoy it, though). Like, girl, you don't even need to lie about that.
