The Untamed, second time through.
Jun. 25th, 2023 05:05 pmI'm going to have to run through this a second time because there is a lot to unpack.

I am not getting enough sleep
Jun. 23rd, 2023 08:03 amMost days I'm awake at about 5:30 AM. There's an alarm on my phone but also there's a Squeaky Wheel who jumps on my head at like 5:25 AM because FOOD NAO. Anyway, this isn't too bad when I go to bed at a reasonable hour like a grown-ass adult.
When I go to bed at 1:30 AM for several days in a row because of a just one more problem related to media consumption, it's not enough sleep. In the same way that eating half a batch of no-bake cookies is not good for me, staying up late every night to watch episodes of The Untamed is not particularly good for me. This doesn't mean I'm going to not-do-it, just that doing-it has consequences. *sigh*
( So how's it going? )

The Untamed, wow I am confuse.
Jun. 21st, 2023 08:46 pmLet me start with I am NOT GOOD AT FACES. I'm not good at faces in real life with people I know in person. I'm not good at faces of people who more or less look like me ethnically. I am NOT GOOD at faces in any way, shape, or form. I generally take a while to be able to recognize real, in-person people when they are not in the correct location and sometimes I have an entire conversations with people who clearly know me while I'm there racking my brain and having absolutely no idea to whom I am speaking or in what context I might know them. Do they play horse? Are they my dental hygienist? Bank teller? Tenant? Person I went to high school with who is now unrecognizable due to the ravages of the intervening thirty-five years since graduation?

I love the outfits. Also there are books.
Jun. 19th, 2023 06:37 pmI love the outfits from The Untamed. They look great. They are clearly DESIGNED to look great both at rest and IN MOTION (fans self) and I am incredibly down with all of that.

It turns out that even if you have pretty decent control of your demonic cultivation whatsis...

Advancements in Plot
Jun. 16th, 2023 07:59 amSo in The Untamed, we're now far enough in to be at the Demonic Cultivation part. A little less than halfway, I think, but here's our story so far, as narrated by me. :)

I has a Netflix.
Jun. 12th, 2023 09:29 pmTurns out that if you want me to pay for a Netflix, all you have to do is provide me with absurdly pretty Chinese dudes in period costume doing sorta-pretend martial arts stuff in a fantasy setting.
Late to the party, as always, but apparently I need to be watching The Untamed, so... fine. Let's do that. Shit, I'll even pay for it like an adult.
