I've finished Game Changers by Rachel Reid. No, not just the book called Game Changer, tho whole series which is called Game Changers. Getting through the whole series that fast is fine, probably. Anyway, tl:dr whole series review is that the books are of very uneven quality. Some people say to skip book 1, and I can see that. It's a bit more fluffy than some of the other books and some of her later writing is much better. But to me book 4 is just confusingly bad, and that can be skipped easily. The Ilya and Shane books (2 and 6) are fantastic and I also really, really liked 3 and 5.

One thing the writer really excels at is having a distinct feel to her characters. For example, most of them have reasons to be anxious with all the pressures they face, but that manifests in different ways in each character. How it feels to them, if they try to ignore it, how they handle it, etc.

The TV series will be based on book 2, Heated Rivalry, which is about Shane and Ilya. But book 6, Long Game, continues to story of Shane and Ilya and is excellent. It also wraps up the series very well, even though it wasn't the intended ending. The author has scrapped book 7 because it wasn't working, but honestly 6 feels like a great series finale. Maybe 1 or 2 scenes more would have been ideal, but the book pays off a lot of stuff and feels satisfying.

The quality of the writing varies a lot over the series, and also each book has a different dynamic. I am very glad I read it, but I think for anyone reading this series there are going to be books that don't click with as much.

Anyway, the individual books.

Book 1 - Game Changer: When I saw the blurb I was like 'oh, it's this book'. I remember this creating a splash when it came out. In spaces I was in, people were pushing this book hard. No matter what you asked for, people rushed in with this recc. There was a point where I really wanted people to shut up about this book. But, that probably says more about the spaces I was in than the book or the fandom.

It's the coffee shop AU trope, but as original fiction. ( Read more... )

Book 2 - I already talked about Heated Rivalry here

Book 3 - Tough Guy: This was very interesting as it dipped into the darker side of hockey as a business and also the impact of hockey injuries. ( major spoilers )

Book 4 - Common Goal: This is about a retiring goalie and a much younger character who is a friend of the couple from the first book. ( Spoilers )

Book 5 - Role Model: This book is about someone who was caught up in the toxic side of hockey culture. Again, bringing in some real stuff. The MC starts out spiraling because his best friend was accused of sexual assault and he has reason to believe the women. His life had just collapsed in a dozen ways. He gets traded and his new team has an openly gay social media manager who is lively, sweet and loves to bake. I really liked this one and how things developed between them.

Sidenote: I think it's fine to just read the Shane and Ilya books, but Role Model does leads into the last book in some interesting ways. A chunk of both books overlap timewise and the MC from this book is on Ilya's team. I really enjoying getting the additional perspective on things.

Book 6 - Long Game - Time to see how Shane and Ilya are doing. Shane and Ilya are such great characters. They are really in a different and have been stuck watching other couples come out and able to love openly and get married and by truthful to their friends. Lots of amazing call backs to the first book and building on things that happened in it. ( Read more... )

The best place to start your visit to the royal sanctuary is at Jackalfire Grove, just outside the door leading to the sanctuary. At one time, this grove of jackalfire trees was smaller, overlooking the so-called burning ground, where some of the worst events in Koretian history took place.

It is here, from the time of Koretia's earliest days, that god-cursed men and women were stoned to death. It is here that, in recent centuries, disobedient slaves were burned alive. And it is here that, during the ninth, the King of Koretia was slain by a rival in one of the many blood feuds that rent the fabric of Koretian society.

All of these atrocities – stoning, burning alive, and blood feuds – were abolished by the Emorians during their occupation of Koretia. Their abolition was confirmed by Koretia's present ruler, the Jackal, when he ascended the throne. Yet only two generations have passed since the outlawing of the most pernicious aspect of the Koretian gods' law. Many residents of Koretia's capital still remember the festive crowds that used to gather here when a god-cursed man or woman was stoned, or when a slave was burned alive.

Not surprisingly, most Koretians today avoid visiting this grove. Paradoxically, the Jackal encourages visits here, especially by families with children who like to play amidst the trees. It is his way of turning evil to good.

Before leaving, be sure to pluck a twig or leaf from one of the jackalfire trees. Bring it with you to the royal sanctuary.

[Translator's note: One of the terrible events in Jackalfire Grove occurs in Death Mask.]

* I have my Leyfarers Chapter 7 Finale tomorrow. I am interested to see how things go. Between that session and the start of Chapter 8 we will be switching from the 2012 D&D ruleset to the current one. We'll be able to change characters or even reroll at our current levels. I am not changing much, because 2012 rangers were so weak that a lot of people refused to play them. I've been looking forward to this for a while.

The finale will involve a reality-distortion that will account for all the changes that will happen. My Dwarf is losing his stone sense which is going to be very weird for him.

I spent all this time trying to learn one ruleset and now I need to relearn things and set up all new reference materials for myself.

* I really want to be posting interesting Pride related pics, but I haven't found much this year. It's been a weird June. Some of the events I did last year don't seem to be happening this year. Maybe I should go early tomorrow and poke around Laurelhurst Park. I know it's not much, but when shit gets tough people tend to thank me for my posts, shows them not everything is dark. But I just haven't come across a rainbow yarn bombing yet!

In honor of Juneteenth!

[I read the annotated version on the Poetry Foundation website and liked the first footnote. The last sentence is especially important to remember: In an interview for Callaloo literary journal, Walker remarked: “I remember hearing a criticism of ‘For My People’ by two white critics whom I admired. They said my ballads either sounded like Paul Laurence Dunbar gone modern or Langston Hughes gone sour. They said some very nasty things about me, all of which I could proceed to ignore, because if one worried about the critics, one would never write.”]

For My People by Margaret Walker [from Poetry 1937]

For my people everywhere singing their slave songs
repeatedly: their dirges and their ditties and their blues
and jubilees, praying their prayers nightly to an
unknown god, bending their knees humbly to an
unseen power;

For my people lending their strength to the years, to the
gone years and the now years and the maybe years,
washing ironing cooking scrubbing sewing mending
hoeing plowing digging planting pruning patching
dragging along never gaining never reaping never
knowing and never understanding;

What I recently abandoned reading:

I got just over halfway through Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao before deciding that YA mecha is not my thing, even when it's a YA mecha AU of Chinese history. I think I'd rather read an actual historical novel or even nonfiction about Wu Zetian, who seems to have been an impressive-as-hell woman. (I will take recommendations!)

What I'm reading now:

Lamentation, the 6th Shardlake book by C. J. Sansom. (An actual historical novel! 😁)

What I recently finished watching:

S2 of Andor, which as I said, weirdly ironic to be watching as we grapple with our own ascendant Evil Empire. The pacing of this season was strange, big time-skips and characters that had seemed important in S1 (or in early episodes of S2) disappearing completely, or reappearing briefly only to be killed. I was expecting more about Mon Mothma's family, after all the screentime lavished on the wedding and her sort-of-blackmail situation. I was also expecting more of a resolution, though that's probably because I only vaguely remember Rogue One, so a lot of the breadcrumbs were, "wait, who was that again?" instead of, "aha!" for me. But I liked Kleya a whole lot, and also the snarky ex-Empire droid, and some of the spycraft bits were fun.

What I'm watching now:

We are giving American Primeval a try, despite it probably being on the violent/gory side for our tastes. We're two episodes in, and - I immediately recognized Shorty Bowlegs from the most recent season of Dark Winds! (Derek Hinkey, playing Red Feather.) Also, there is a local(ish) woman in it, Nanabah Grace from Cortez just down the road, who plays Kuttaambo'i. An article about her in the local newspaper was the way I first heard of this series, actually.

I'm enjoying the historical stuff; it's set during the Mormon War, which I actually researched a bit for my Yuletide fic, the premise of which was that the main reason that Deseret became an independent republic in the alt-history of Francis Spufford's Cahokia Jazz was that President Buchanan backed down in the face of united Mormons and natives, as both religion and respect for the tribes were stronger in that universe's US. I also like seeing the Old West, even though it was all filmed in New Mexico pretending to be Wyoming, although I'm getting a bit tired of the washed-out sepia filter.

What I recently finished playing:

Okay, not quite finished, but I have completed the last major quest in Mass Effect: Andromeda, so it's basically over. (I mean, the credits rolled! Therefore, it's over!) I know that Andromeda is considered ME's poor stepchild, but - I really enjoyed it. The "major threat to the world as we know it!!1!!one!" of the main trilogy is such a staple plotline of video games like this that I appreciated the "survive, explore, and (hopefully) thrive in a NEW UNIVERSE (and also defeat the major threat to the world as we know it)" plotline for its novelty. I thought the structure of quests opening new planets and objectives in a rough but not strict order worked well, and I really liked that most (maybe all?) decisions are not hugely critical, so you don't doom yourself to a bad ending by choosing X instead of Y. I did check the wiki a few times when I was nervous about things, but pretty much none of these decisions made any real difference, which meant I was free to actually role-play as "what WOULD (me as) Sara Ryder do?" and I find that much more relaxing.

I wasn't quite completionist - I didn't do all the fetch quest type quests, and I didn't do one vault (Elaaden, which I might go back and do), but I did pretty much everything else. I liked the glyph puzzles, and I hated the Architects, ugh. I played mostly as what in the main trilogy would be Infiltrator (combat + tech). I romanced Liam (after a fling with Peebee). It was fun!

What I'm playing next:

I think I will try some shorter games; I got Lorelei and the Laser Eyes a while back because a friend recommended it, and Skabma - Snowfall from a recent deal, because it looked pretty. I might try Baldur's Gate 3 again - I never managed to get into it and found it frustrating and annoying. Eventually I plan to get Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and also probably Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, which I've heard good things about.
(Or sell me on your favorite adventure game!)

Wow, the author of this fanfiction fully does not realize how fountain pens work at all. Which is fine: all you had to do was not touch on how the pen worked and nobody would have noticed! Or you could've looked it up.

Or anything other than describing red ink writing that was done with a fountain pen as "a red fountain pen".

Bonus info: fountain pen ink dries up in the pen, which can ruin it if you're not lucky, if it lies unused for long enough (how long to dry up depends on the pen, and it's longer if stored point-down, but it can be as little as less than a week; it takes longer than that to ruin a pen, though). Fountain pen ink in the bottle also degrades over time. It can spoil or grow micro organisms and also can break down chemically, but evaporation is perhaps the biggest risk. The hobbyist sphere seems to agree that typical shelf life is "ten to sixty years" (optimally: in glass, sealed as airtight as possible, protected from heat and light and no contaminants introduced), so it's not impossible you could still use ink from a bottle from the 1940s, but it's highly unlikely.

Happy Juneteenth! Just a quick post:

The Black, African, and African-American employee group at work shared this documentary with us for Juneteenth, about the early days of the Pendleton Round-up (a prestigious rodeo located in Pendleton, Oregon), and two cowboys of color who competed in the 1911 bronc-riding finals: George Fletcher and Jackson Sundown.

(Note: contains discussion of genocide, namely the US govt's war against the Nez Perce. Also, predictably, discussions of racism. Also archival rodeo footage, including bronc-riding and calf-roping.)

Today is partly sunny and mild. It rained yesterday.

I fed the birds. I've seen a mixed flock of sparrows and house finches.

I put out water for the birds.

EDIT 6/19/25 -- We went out for a while and saw the library wildflower meadow, Fox Ridge, and the Charleston Food Forest.

EDIT 6/19/25 -- I refilled the thistle feeder that was half empty.

EDIT 6/19/25 -- I did a bit of work around the patio.

EDIT 6/19/25 -- I sowed 5 pots with yellow raspberries.

EDIT 6/19/25 -- I did more work around the patio.

EDIT 6/19/25 -- I picked up sticks from the south side of the driveway and dumped them in the firepit.

Lots of fireflies are coming out. :D

EDIT 6/19/25 -- I picked up sticks from the North side of the driveway and dumped them in the firepit.

As it is getting dark, I am done for the night.

New butterfly species wows scientists: 'This discovery reveals a lineage shaped by 40,000 years of evolutionary solitude'

The Satyrium semiluna, or half-moon hairstreak, is a small gray butterfly that looks like a moth at first glance. The wildflower lovers are widespread across North America, from the Sagebrush steppe to the montane meadows of the Rocky Mountains.

But tucked away in the southeastern corner of Alberta, Canada, another colony of butterflies flaps across the Blakiston Fan landform of Waterton Lakes National Park.

Until now, they were thought to be a subpopulation of half-moon hairstreaks — until scientists made a phenomenal discovery: They were a new species of butterfly that had hidden in plain sight for centuries.

The researchers, who recently published their findings in the scientific journal ZooKeys, defined the new species as Satyrium curiosolus.

Maurice de Vlaminck had questionable politics and questionable taste in art. (But we do agree in one thing: fuck Paul Gauguin.)

Vlaminck was the rare Fauve who took main inspiration from Van Gogh (okay, they all did, but the Gauguin influence was huge). And it shows. The colours, however, are more. More. MORE.

Genuine is like The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, but more. More. MORE. And just like Vlaminck, the predecessor is better in everything.

My first foray into ~ German expressionist film ~, over a decade ago, went like this: The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, The Golem: How He Came into the World, Nosferatu, Orlacs Hände, Waxworks, Der Student von Prag. And some other films after that. Genuine being one of those, back when only an incomplete sub-50-minute restoration existed. Now that a longer, almost hour-and-a-half version exists (making the film near-complete now), it was time to go back to it.

Like Caligari, Genuine is detached from our world, the sets, makeup and wardrobe make sure of that. They are more abstract, however. And that's fine. Like Caligari, it has a framing device.

Genuine's (played by Fern Andra) wardrobe is the most interesting of all. Gaudy headpieces, dresses with big, geometric patterns with contrasting colours. Andra does acting in the way of interpretative dance, not quite the same yet not quite different from Conrad Veidt in The Hands of Orlac (hey, had to put my blorbo in somehow).

So the sets, the wardrobe and the acting make Genuine the character some otherworldy being, a powerful entity.

Plot is bleh. Style is the substance here, but comparing Genuine's style with its contemporaries, it falls short indeed. The whole package is one big step under Waxworks, which is also poor on plot, but looks incredible. It also features Ivan the Terrible having orgasms over people dying, which Genuine does not.

It's always nice seeing Hans Heinrich von Twardowski (Caligari, Spione, Casablanca). He's doing his best hetero acting here.

Ah, yes. Racism. So much racism. (They lynched a black man. Holy shit...)

This longer version simply adds more scenes for the framing device, and some context scenes for the story proper, which was nice. Didn't have to go "oh, so this is what we're doing now" as often as I did when I first watched it.

EDIT: Unrelated. Erdgeist available on the Digitaler Lesesaal of the Bundesarchiv.

Hello! I'm also primeideal on Ao3. This is an all-Stormlight Archive signup, and I'm requesting both fic and art for all ships! Some of the freeforms will lend themselves more to certain ships than others, but feel free to mix and match.

Requested ships:

Dalinar Kholin/Navani Kholin
Hesina/Lirin
Kmakl/Fen Rnamdi
Lunamor/Tuaka
Masha-daughter-Shaliv/Szeth-son-son-Vallano
Palona/Turinad Sebarial
Renarin Kholin/Rlain
Shallan Davar/Adolin Kholin

General art likes:

black and white art
bright/bold colors
traditional or digital art
objects that represent/are strongly associated with characters
fantastic/speculative worldbuilding elements
in-universe artifacts/sketches that the characters might have drawn (similar in spirit to the snippets between chapters, although I'm not expecting Shallan-level expertise!)

General art dislikes (please don't consider these binding DNWs: if your interests or preferences lie strongly along these lines then feel free.)

pastel-heavy palettes
deliberately wildly disproportionate/chibi-like characters
completely non-representational art

General fic likes:

Anything leaning into the weird worldbuilding, culture, and magic of Roshar! For this exchange, I'm mostly imagining something canon-compliant, but if you have AU ideas (Dalinar lives? Shallan and Adolin don't get separated?) feel free.

DNWs:

explicit sex (but fade-to-black or innuendo is fine), explicit depictions of genitalia in art
eye trauma
underage characters having sex
rape/noncon
second person POV (in "normal" prose, happy with it in IF or the like)
moralizing/didactic stories (characters Learning An Important Lesson about the value of tolerance, etc.)
non-canonical allegories of current events and/or contemporary politics (Dalinar complains about the squabbling princedoms: fine; Dalinar complains about the squabbling princedoms and this is a metaphor for the 21st century US Congress: no thanks.)
character bashing
cliffhanger endings
themes of cynicism or futility, or that the (canon's) main plotlines "are for nothing"

Requested Prompts:

Historical - Bard Immortalizes Wedding In Ballad To Couple's Delight Or Embarrassment
- You know Wit would. And knowing him it would wind up as a traditional ballad in another place/time/somewhere else in the Cosmere. Or maybe the listeners adding to their traditional list of songs.
Supernatural - Familiar/Magical Companion's POV on Human's Spouse
- Doesn't literally need to be from the other character's POV, but something about the developing relationships between the spouse and the spren/other being. Adolin and Pattern? Shallan and Maya? Masha interviewing Nightblood for her book? The Sibling and the Stormfather bickering about how humans are the worst, and now they're inlaws?
Wedding - New Cultural Traditions
Wedding - Marriage Traditions in Different Cultures
- Do peakspren ever show up to crash Horneater weddings? Palona is wearing a Herdazian marriage garment--more about that! What does a traditional Shin wedding look like for Masha and Szeth?
Wedding Ceremony - Magic-related accidents during wedding
A/B Read In-Universe RPF About Their Wedding
Epistolary media coverage/social media reaction/etc.
In-Universe Rumors About A/B Secret Marriage
- These would work well for Dalinar/Navani. (Especially "oh no Dalinar can read now, so much for secret women's documents.") But also, are there rumors about Renarin/Rlain? What do the common people of Thaylen think of the Prince Consort?
Widowed - Marrying Sibling's Widow
Widowed - Widow marries another widow; talking about dead spouses is comforting for both
- Once Dalinar's memories of Evi come back it's probably good for him to have someone he can share them with. And maybe his changing perspective on Gavilar, realizing that he wasn't all that?
Established Marriage - Old Married Couple
Established Marriage - Partners Can’t Keep Their Hands Off Each Other Even After Years Together
- Fen and Kmakl definitely have this effect on people as they're pushing seventy.
Anniversary: Tenth
- We know ten is a very important number in Roshar lore. For Palona/Sebarial, their anniversary will be right around the end of the "timeskip" between books five and six--what's changed on Roshar in that time? Shallan and Adolin's will be slightly earlier than that--are they celebrating even when apart, or is Shallan working on a completely different calendar by now? Navani reflecting on most of ten years without Dalinar? The other couples, presumably having somewhat more mundane times to celebrate in?
Proposal - Post-canon
Courtship - Sincere Courtship Of Character Baffled To Be The Object Of Romantic Attention
Proposal - Having To Convince The Person They're Asking That Their Proposal And Feelings Are Genuine
- I imagine Masha is the one who proposes to Szeth and it takes a while for him to be convinced "this is real, she doesn't see me as the Assassin in White, she knows who I am and loves me exactly as I am." But anything about how they got together!
Marrying for Love - Getting Married After Having Been Together For Many Years
Proposal - "We Could Be Dead Tomorrow So Let's Get Married Today"
- Something finally convinced Palona and Sebarial that they should make it official. Is Sebarial just worried about the class difference, and all the other social changes convinced him it wasn't a big deal? Did they just want a really great wedding night before the battle of champions? What happened?
Wedding - First Legal Marriage Of Its Kind
Political Marriage - Emergency Same-Sex Marriage Exception to Avert Imminent War
- We know that Alethkar/Urithiru has some form of same-sex marriage (Drehy and his husband), but maybe the idea of same-sex marriages (or formal long-term relationships in general?) is new to the listeners. Either way, Renarin/Rlain are going to get a lot of questions from both cultures. What happens then?
Wedding Ceremony - Watching A Friend/Family Member Get Married
- Especially for Adolin/Shallan, there's so much going on there. How are Shallan's brothers feeling? Do they recognize Chanarach? What's going on with her? Adolin chose to wore Kaladin's gift sword among the dozens other gift swords he had--what's with that?
Established Marriage - Slice Of Married Life During Wartime
- Lunamor and Tuaka have six kids--what's it like for her when she's waiting for news? Hesina and Lirin worried about their boys? Learning that they're going to have another baby and dealing with that shock during everything else that's going on? Being doctors at Urithiru?
Newlyweds - Helping New Spouse Settle Into Their New Clan/Village/City/Country
- Hesina isn't originally from Hearthstone--what was the culture shock like for her? Where do Renarin and Rlain wind up geographically and what adjustments do they have to make?
Established Marriage - Expectant Couple Prepares for Baby
- What are the pregnancy traditions for Horneaters? Hesina and Lirin, either earlier in their marriage with Kaladin and Tien, or later with Oroden?
Science Fiction - Spouses Separated By Faster Than Light Travel
- More of the weird worldbuilding as it relates to Shallan and Adolin's situation. Do the communication spren help? Do they ever find other methods of keeping in touch?
Wedding Ceremony - Captain of the Ship Officiates the Ceremony
- Fen and Kmakl totally would.
Established Marriage - Long-Distance Relationship
- What's going through Tuaka's mind when Lunamor is away in Alethkar? Does he ever expect to see her again? Do Shallan and Adolin have to turn down other propositions with "actually I'm married but it's complicated..."?

Again, don't feel limited to these specific prompts, anything involving these characters and tropes will be great. Thank you for creating for me!
