And I know some people had similar complaints about Belle's dress in that live-action and to be fair, it's not super fancy however Belle in that movie was more of a bookish sensible girl so it makes sense if she made her own dress it wouldn't be overly fancy, and she had to make do with what she had in the palace, and also at least she had the forethought to wear some jewelry with it

So I guess all the girly lesbians are into cottagecore these days huh? Well in that case hello lesbians, it's been my dream to eat homemade omelets sew a sampler churn butter pick strawberries and peaches and take care of pigs, who wants me
Mom was iffy on Supernatural and said she wants to skip it and just watch Kakugurui because that seems more engaging to her and I was like 'you brought that up like I'd be so disappointed like "Aw man no Supernatural?!'"
For years I've tried and tried to attend a Spotter training because I really want to be a certified Spotter but something would always come up and prevent me from attending. It's that time of year where they start announcing classes and dates to get people's interests and this time they're making them all be online and this time for sure, I know I'm going to make it, if I somehow still don't I think I should call it quits. I'm just not sure which one to attend; this time you have to register for them instead of just showing up which makes sense. Do I take the late morning one, the afternoon one, or the evening one? I'm thinking of either the 2 PM or 4 PM ones because the session lasts for two hours and I rarely do anything in the afternoons so I feel that'd be the best time for me
Spotter? Like...for snipers?
Yes if you replace sniper with tornado :P They're officially-licensed weather spotters. They report wind speeds, funnel clouds, rain/snow measurements, etc. Anyone can report stuff like funnel clouds or hail but spotters are the ones who can report wind speeds or rain/snow measurements because they're trained to
I thought those were storm chasers :P
They don't chase after storms, they report severe weather in their own area
Part of me has always been interested in meteorology
You could see if your weather service has Spotter lessons too!
I'm thinking the 2 PM one but the 4 PM one might be more feasible...maybe I'll ask Mom tomorrow when she's awake
We could see if we could both go to a class!
Finally it looks like my brothers are starting to sleep through the morning, that means I don't have to keep trying to ruin my own schedule!
Kou seeing Mitsuba get turned into the 3rd Wonder and losing his memory: "I guess I just lost my husband!"
One of these days I'm going to rewrite the entire Divergent trilogy as a really dark and gritty dystopian with morally grey, nuanced characters, a Villainess!/Anti-Hero!Tris and better writing the way it was meant to be and none of you will be ready for it, nor will any of you be able to stop me
Hopefully it'll be more interesting that...whatever the heck was going on in the books; I didn';t even finish them because they confused me :P
It was likely only confusing because the author wanted to make Tris the villain but had no clue how to properly develop it so one second she's fine and the next she's laughing maniacally and shoving people off roofs :P
I don't even remember what all happened in Insurgent :P
It was kinda a filler book but I remember a lot of it, mostly because it made me incredibly angry lol
I've thought about trying to finish the books but now I feel I shouldn't bother :p
The third book was simultaneously the best and worst in my opinion, like at one point I literally stood up and pulled on my hair from how upset I was lol
Why did I, someone who practically lives on TikTok, think I could survive a 'Try Not to Sing/Dance Challenge' with TikTok songs?
I can't remember if I gave a proper update but evidently the reason why my topic can't be renamed/moved it because it's way too big and GoodReads says they're trying to fix that but still. I know I could just make another journal with the name I want but I don't want to just keep making journals and it seems weird to have another journal for the same exact reason, and that also doesn't change this one being in the wrong category. I guess I'll just continue to deal with it. I was thinking of making a different journal just for my writing purposes like notes and stuff but that's an actual different reason
Mom said do the 4 PM session so 4 PM it shall be
The one good thing the pandemic did was making Artemis Fowl go straight to Disney+ because originally Mom and I wanted to see it in theaters and I know my dumb self would read reviews and be like 'yeah but it's only bad to them because they don't know the source material!' just like with Nutcracker and we'd go see it and waste our money because it would've been way worse than Nutcracker and I'd just like to thank the pandemic for allowing me to dodge that literal bullet saved my life
I wonder how many movie theaters have closed because of this. And with platforms putting movies on their streaming services and not theaters, how that will impact the film industry
Mom and I think studios with likely do both after this, release it in both theaters and streaming services which would likely double their profit because there's lots of people who can't or don't want to go to the movies even before all this
I hate going to the movies. I in the second half of the 2010s the only movies I saw in theaters were the STar Wars moviesIn the first half the only one I remember seeing was Frozen
Mom and I would definitely go to more movies in theaters if it were economically viable. I can only see one or two movies a year in theaters so I try to choose wisely. We end up watching some Disney movie
Me: "I have no interest in reading Serpent and Dove," Reviewer: "And the weirdest part is that this song called Big Titty Liddy is an important plot point that comes up several times,"
Me: "I have all the interest in the world in reading Serpent and Dove,"
Disney+ has Isle of Dogs now! I'm excited I've wanted to watch that movie ever since it first came out!
So many people following me now but no interaction on my reviews huh? I see how it is
Eating More Calcium Means I'll Never Break Another Bone: :D Realizing Too Much Calcium in My System Makes Me Far More Likely to Get Kidney Stones: D:
Me who drinks milk basically every day
I feel bad for laughing so hard lol
Don't because that was my goal :P
I remember that one person who said all the Netflix Original pictures looked like they were about to fight each other, well let me raise to you my current one where they all look like historical period dramas, somehow even the contemporary ones look like that
Someone said this one song is sweet and everything but they know if they ever found someone to love they wouldn't taste like the nice things in the song, they'd taste like milk tea and spicy Cheetos and I was like 'but to the person who loves you, that will be the most amazing thing they've ever tasted, that's kinda what the song is about, when you love someone so much everything about them seems so magical'
I just saw the trailer for Godzilla VS Kong and to be honest I'm excited for it, don't know if I'll ever get around to seeing it but just knowing it exists is enough. I just hope the critics won't slam it like they did Godzilla: King of the Monsters and be like 'well it's just a bunch of monsters fighting' that's kinda the point. Even the original King King VS Godzilla was made to have two monsters fight each other and was more of a comedy it wasn't supposed to be serious, it had stuff like the characters sitting back taking bets on who'd win. Even though this one looks like it's more serious, it's still going to mainly feature two big monsters fighting each other. Godzilla: King of the Monsters had actual problems but I feel like you're really in the wrong genera if your biggest issue with a giant monster movie is 'it's just giant monsters fighting each other' I really do think that aspect is a cultural thing because Japanese critics don't criticize that aspect of it. From what I heard Godzilla: King of the Monsters did quite well in Japan, they loved our interpretations of Rodan and Mothra and especially King Ghidorah. But they're the ones who invented that sort of thing. We don't really have very much like that in comparison since that's not really what we like so on the one hand I kinda forgive the critics, but on the other hand I'm like 'what did you expect you went into this knowing it was going to mainly feature giant monsters fighting each other'
Mom "He doesn't bother me in War of the Worlds because I can just pretend that's Tom Cruise with his kids from a marriage suddenly thrust into an apocalyptic situation,"
Who's "he"?
Not people getting mad about a WW2 romance book on Twitter again 
Like on the one hand I understand the complaint, it's about an American falling in love with a German, yet I also think it's stupid. I really hate to pull the 'not all German soldiers believed in the extreme doctrine of the Nazis' and yet I'm about to. If this were a German/Jewish love story, I would understand the complaints a lot more but America barely had anything to do with the war and we certainly didn't care too much about the European part, I feel we were mainly after Japan specifically but I digress. Not to mention the author was basing it on their own family history, so you're just going to say they're wrong? To be honest I'm far more offended that on God's Green Earth, in the Year of Our Lord 2021 we are still writing WW2 stories featuring Germany as if that was the only nation involved in it. Like I almost don't even want to get into this because it's such a stupid debate especially since none of these people are even going to touch this book with a ten-foot-pole, controversy aside, it's just a basic romance novel so I have no clue why they're spending so much time on such a minute detail. Here's that attention you ordered I suppose
The Americans and British troops took German prisoners if they'd surrender. It was the SS that they shot on sight because of their heavy role in the Holocaust. But I suppose that's not about the military of the Germans so that's irrelevant. Even still, a lot of civilians didn't know what was truly going on
We watched Band of Brothers which is a recount of soldiers whom they interviewed *for* the program and the soldiers talked about going into German towns and demanding to know what the f*** was going on with those camps and the civilians were often confused and frightened by the accusations.
Yeah this was about a German POW
Was it a female soldier or a gay relationship?
What makes you think the American was male? Lol
I was asking if one of the soldiers was female :P Since you said the German was a POW then it couldn't have been a civilian or else...they wouldn't be a POW :P
An American nurse and a German POW I believe it was
Mom still asks 'you want a stepdad? want it to be Scott Cawthone?' lol
The people who go out and do cosplay in the snow are the real MVPs
