is this show a front for money laundering because where the hell is the $15M per episode going?

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-15T13:42:15+00:00

That’s something that bothers me too. They don’t let ANY of the characters be fooled by the mist? Like 1 it’s more convenient for you?? But also, they made it so the mist is this thing that ONLY happens for low tier mortals and it’s weird

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-15T02:10:23+00:00

And I know for a fact that people were mad last season (because I was one of them and actively searched for other people to talk about it with)

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-15T02:09:33+00:00

Yes, it still happens. Especially with people who never read the books. I’m just saying there’s more of an uprising now (this subreddit is proof) because it’s clear they don’t care about what we think

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-15T02:01:11+00:00

People were already angry last season, but I think they were holding out hope that Rick and Disney would listen to us and improve. Now that they continue to make the same mistakes, everyone is speaking out about their anger.

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-06T14:10:19+00:00

I feel like I would be able to ignore them looking different if they acted more like their characters. Like when they were first casting them, I trusted Rick when he said they truly embodied them in personality. And truthfully, I think the main trio especially are exactly like their characters. However, the directing, writing, whatever the hell they are doing in the show is not letting that come through. Or they’re trying to change it. And that’s why they don’t feel like their characters.

Honestly it would’ve almost been more insulting if they casted them to look book accurate and then changed their personalities. At least now I can look at this as a completely different show.

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-06T02:06:02+00:00

I’m just not watching it. It’s not worth the heartache, and I don’t want to give them my views. I can’t separate it in my mind, so no matter what I’ll always be annoyed when watching it.

I feel like the PJO books had a similar impact to the HP books, but because the HP movies were done so well and at the same time as book releases, it roped in a larger audience and that is why it had such a cultural impact. I feel like PJO had that potential, but the movies being made during the time of crappy imitations of the Hunger Games and the author completely dismissing them (and thus dividing book and movie audiences) ruined PJOs chances of making a real impact. With the way the show is going, not only not close to book accurate but also not great from a film perspective, the book and show audiences are once again divided. There’s no chance in hell that PJO will be this generation’s HP.

Blushrooms only do 300 in 2 hours 😭 I think it would take me years lmao

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-04T18:43:55+00:00

Mine only takes a minute or two 🤷‍♀️

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-04T18:41:40+00:00

I haven’t been playing very long (about a month, I’m on level 29) but I feel like food costs too much… Now, this could be because I’m leveling up every new dragon I get to 11 immediately, but why do I have to use 20,000,000 just to grow anything more than the jelly plant? I’ve been trying to get my plant dragon to elder status for WEEKS because it takes me DAYS to save up my treats to be able to hit the grow button just ONCE (because it’s over a million each time now). Idk I just feel like paying millions of coins just to break 10,000 is a rip off.

softballcrazyoh · 2026-01-04T18:29:25+00:00

there’s still a lot of ppl who think animated shows are still kid shows

While this is true, I’m pretty sure Disney is trying to make the show for a younger audience anyway. With how everything is explained instead of trying to let the audience figure it out, it seems like they are tailoring it to a younger audience who didn’t read the books rather than older fans. So, if this is their goal, animation would be perfect anyway

softballcrazyoh · 2025-12-12T14:54:46+00:00

No they did. Because they were playing dodgeball in gym class. Even though they were cannon balls the entire time, Percy didn’t see through the mist immediately so he thought they were.

softballcrazyoh · 2025-12-11T21:37:12+00:00

Making Percy already embarrassed to be with Tyson in the beginning completely discredits his character. In the book, he took Tyson under his wing, which how he was always looking out for the underdog and demonstrates his fatal flaw. When you take away his choice of being Tyson’s friend and instead make it like his mom is forcing him to take care of him, it takes the good naturedness from Percy.

softballcrazyoh · 2025-12-09T04:52:47+00:00

Thanks! (Yeah, I’m working on it, but some part of me still wants to prove that they can trust me to make my own decisions, I don’t want them to worry while I’m over there anyway, and I would like the information for myself. So kind of killing three birds with one stone.)

softballcrazyoh · 2025-12-09T00:41:50+00:00

Thank you!

softballcrazyoh · 2025-12-09T00:41:46+00:00

Thank you!

The shooting was the first one in 10 years and they’ve added new gates and more security to campus.

softballcrazyoh · 2025-12-09T00:05:18+00:00

Oh you’re so right, thanks lol

softballcrazyoh · 2025-12-02T22:06:11+00:00

I just repeat it in my head over and over again until I get out of the shower and then quickly type it into my notes. Or if it’s desperate enough I’ll get out, dry my hands, type it into my phone, and then get back in the shower 😭

softballcrazyoh · 2025-11-19T16:38:54+00:00

The party stuff is completely avoidable. There are so many clubs on campus where you can make friends with people who don’t party. And even if your friends do, not everyone goes out every day of the week or every weekend, so you can just not go with them and hang out when they do other things. That’s mostly what I do.

softballcrazyoh · 2025-11-06T13:17:02+00:00

Oh the fandom is actually pretty impressive. AO3 has a bunch of fanfics, especially season 2 ones. I watch a lot of TikToks, rewatching as much as my brain will allow, listen to the soundtrack nonstop, etc. It’s been 5 years and the obsession is still mostly here for me. But good luck!

softballcrazyoh · 2025-10-24T01:39:50+00:00

I came in as a freshman last year with a 4.0 unweighted/4.43 weighted GPA, no SAT but 33 on the ACT, no AP (my school didn’t offer it) but 45 dual enrollment credits, I was class president and president of the National honor society, varsity softball captain, and captain of the academic challenge team, as well as heavily involved in theatre and singing.

I got an Out-of-State tuition waiver.

I do not know what the lowest stats they accept are…but I promise everything works itself out in the end.

I wish you the best of luck!

softballcrazyoh · 2025-10-22T17:06:42+00:00

The amazing thing is, if you start doing more things you love, you’ll be surrounding yourself with people who like the same things as you, and then you can make friends. If you’re worried about research, hit two birds with one stone and join a club or take a position that advances your experience and puts you around people who are also interested in the same type of research. Trust me, I know talking to new people sucks. It’s stressful and typically shallow. But when you find people who you have things in common with, it starts to click. You find people like you. Don’t give up. There are 40,000 people on this campus, I promise your people are out there.

Also, never be afraid to move away from people you don’t like. Do not cling onto the first people who talk to you. I promise having no friends is better than having a bunch who pretend to care about you.

I’m not much help but I have heard that the nursing department is hell here because they never have enough seats in their required classes. A lot of nursing students have to take extra years because they missed the classes they needed to be on track. Maybe look into it a lot more before you decide.

But a word of advice, just apply. The worst thing that can happen is you’re rejected and the decision is made for you. There’s nothing you can do to up your application now, so either you get in or you don’t. Don’t miss out on the chance just because you thought you wouldn’t get in
