It is just annoying because it also seems like they overwhelming glamp on to male author/creatives conceptions of these characters and nitpick to death female creators who are having a good time with the characters for fun or with a different scope. It is obnoxious.

Yuupppp. I love Epic, but so many people think *that* is canon and it's like no, it is a narrative decision and it works and it is good, but that is not Odysseus TM.

I do understand that it says that and I think every case is different and about execution. I think the show is really well done, but I don’t understand why it is centered around a significant historical character when who that person is isn’t there

This might be an unpopular opinion, by My Lady Jane was a rough watch for-me because the historical inaccuracy was so wild—I just don’t understand why they based it on a figure that they stripped nearly every factual aspect of them? We can just have fictional kingdoms!

I hate that. I still know the words to like 40% of this.

In order to get perfect time management, I am rolling a D 20 to see how many times I am allowed to die in Hades before I stop playing for the day. “ unfortunately” I did roll a nat 20

When both @princesmweekes.bsky.social and @spice8rack.bsky.social publish video essays on the same day, I know my brain will be filled with good content.

Thank you so much for making this vid!

It's something I have to be actively cognizant of when writing and publishing furry fiction since I touch on topics such as discrimination and bigotry. Appreciate the hard work. 🙏🏿

Back from work, so I’m ready to get into this (Frieren mention so we’re off to a great start 🤩)

Princess Weekes @princesmweekes.bsky.social · 8d

The new video is finally out! 1/6 finally finished. Really excited to see the conversations around this one and already having interesting discussions about Frieren. Now my reward is one hour of uninterrupted Hades II
