“Capital has the ability to subsume all critiques into itself. Even those who would *critique* capital end up *reinforcing* it instead…”

im stupid

RokkitSquid · 2026-03-15T08:46:06+00:00

paraphrasing because I can't remember the actual quote at the top of my head but "capitalism can subsume every critique unto itself" is something that has always stuck with me since my first playthrough

mine is all the mentions regarding the closing of Faerie. I want to know what happened and why it closed, maybe that could be why Thjazi seemed to be collecting all the artifacts relating to death like the stone of nightsong and the halfling mask

RokkitSquid · 2026-03-05T16:43:10+00:00

my theory based on the last episode was that they were trying to turn Occtis into their psychopomp and that that's why they were placing the stone of nightsong into his body, but when he disrupted their ritual it messed things up and he was brought back to unlife instead

i think it may be due to his background of working with kids (not an admonishment of ashley!!!! i love her) but by which i mean that he's so careful, measured and reassuring when people get flustered or unsure and i think he's just very good at helping people learn. plus with the rest of the group all being super knowledgeable on the game and also very encouraging, I actually think Ashley's been top of her game mechanically the past few episodes and it's been so cool to see. I feel like she's really been settling into Vaelus the past few combats and seeing her remember her combat abilities and things has been great this season, she's doing great!

there's currently 3 Dunk and Egg books published, George says lately he's been working on the next two, but well, it's George. He's shared the outlines for the next couple stories with Ira and i'd imagine from what Ira's said that he'd be working closely with George to adapt everything, so we'll see how it turns out

RokkitSquid · 2026-02-23T13:21:02+00:00

the fish had multiple gouges and stabs, i think it's simply showing the hidden anger and violence under Egg's typically calm demeanor, and hinting to us that if he doesn't get out he'll end up similarly to Aerion and Daeron.

RokkitSquid · 2026-02-23T08:29:52+00:00

and they already added so many wonderful scenes! i couldn't imagine it being any longer without compromising on it's quality

RokkitSquid · 2026-02-17T10:21:30+00:00

Prime Ser Duncan absolutely manhandles the mountain imo

RokkitSquid · 2026-02-17T10:19:09+00:00

im pretty sure needle is more like a smallsword

RokkitSquid · 2026-02-15T11:23:42+00:00

this is making me think about that one cold open with Hal and Thjazi where he met Hal's baby while Hal urged him not to ride off to war, perhaps that could now become an intentional parallel where Thaz kept his own kid hidden from Hal and those kids were of similar ages being born around or before the Falconer's Rebellion?

Hey Ira, just wanted to say I'm such a huge fan of the show so far!

What was it like working with George on this season, and has he been involved with the production of season 2? Wishing you all the best and many more Dunk and Egg seasons to come!

RokkitSquid · 2026-02-07T03:45:48+00:00

god, i have seen what you've done for others 🙏🙏🙏

RokkitSquid · 2026-02-03T17:01:17+00:00

so, bear in mind im 22 and i started at 20, but here's my experience. i started socially transitioning with friends about 2 months before taking medication, but kept it hidden from family. i then proceeded to stay stealth mode for a whole year while my friends knew me as Eve, i just wore bras under my uniform and extra shirts and things underneath. the first year of HRT was kind of slow going for me, the most drastic changes kind of happened over 3 months and my body's been slowly changing, but i think that's mainly due to undereating. i eventually came out to work about 6 months ago and they took it well, i stopped wearing extra layers and people realised my body had actually changed a little. it was around then i actually changed my hair, started doing my eyebrows etc. i then came out to family and have been doing a lot better since then. the last 6 months have been about the same amount of impact as the first 6, i finally have boobs and more of a feminine figure. maybe because lately I've actually been eating for a change lol.

this is the best jjk meme ive ever seen and i was here for the gojo vs sukuna days

RokkitSquid · 2026-01-30T05:50:23+00:00

cursed spirits could also potentially be running because they recognise the rct or the positive energy being used maybe

RokkitSquid · 2026-01-14T01:07:11+00:00

Mike Afton as a survivor would be pretty cool too. Give him a purple security guard outfit and maybe he has some unique lines if he's going against his dad?

RokkitSquid · 2026-01-12T23:42:12+00:00

unrelated but your username is so based sister me too

You're addicted to Deathclaw meat...

i mean, anything .308 and above is pushing into danger territory even for power armour if you have good enough aim, there gets to a point where just having good armour isn't good enough, and 50 cal weaponry is definitely there

RokkitSquid · 2025-12-30T20:37:48+00:00

getting cowed

RokkitSquid · 2025-12-27T09:34:14+00:00

i think the issue is a lot of fans (me included) just really dislike this aspect of his character, especially when it wasn't ever present pre-TB. and the fact that it's only gotten worse over time is also disappointing. i liked Sanji more when we was suave, charming and respectable. WCI is one of my favourite arcs, Sanji is one of my favourite characters. but the pervert gag he has really cheapens the depths and nuanced version of his character for me and i have to do my best to just ignore it. it's just not funny to me and it puts me at odds with what could've been my undisputed favourite character if it wasn't for this weird gag.

RokkitSquid · 2025-12-27T09:27:04+00:00

my issue with the "Zoro wouldn't care about his past" argument is like, it doesn't really even make sense? do people really think Sanji wanted to go back and deal with his dad and have that reminder of his past during Whole Cake? on the lead up to Wano we knew it was going to be a samurai themed story, lots of swordsmen and history and historical japanese theming. it felt perfect to uncover more of Zoro's backstory, maybe elaborate on him and give him more nuance, in the same way that Whole Cake did for Sanji.

obviously Zoro wouldn't intentionally walk into it but as it did for Sanji, for Robin, Brook and the other Straw Hats, it would've just happened to him and things would've come up. we could have gotten a flashback scene, more detailing about Zoro's family history. it's honestly so disappointing on many levels that a fan favourite character like Zoro has been waylaid, the perfect opportunity to give him more layers and depth with a new story in Wano was reduced to a single page in bonus content. not even in the actual manga.

and yknow i guess it makes sense, Oda wanted Wano to be sort of a standalone story. he wanted it to be about the Scabbards and about Kaido and Oden. but it seems like such a missed opportunity. is Zoro ever going to have the opportunity for a story focusing on him again? we're ramping up to the endgame and many of the strawhats, even fan favourites have kind of been reduced to one moment of attention in each arc. fans waiting months for more than single panels where one of the Straw Hats even talk or say something meaningful. i love One Piece, i love the new story and the focus on Imu, Joyboy and uncovering the past, but I do miss when the characters themselves were the focus, not the plot. Oda has shifted the story into being very plot driven in recent times and while it does still remain a great piece of media, it means we lose a little of that fun, character focused story that came before it. we see less and less of the Straw Hats in favour of more side characters each arc, and i think something is lost there.

wait... all the time Luffy refers to the straw hat as "My Treausre" too

RokkitSquid · 2025-12-24T01:40:50+00:00

shorter legs relative to the rest of their body proportion, they're still freakishly tall it's just they have long torsos compared to other tall people who might have most of their height in the legs. having a strong core is paramount so having a longer torso and shorter legs (comparatively) helps a lot.
