@efi hi efi!!
@barnOwl hi owl!!!
a lot of flanderiztion in characterization is aggravating, especially in sherlock holmes. sherlock perpetually becomes more of a jerk (but in a way that i can only describe as "a nerotypical person's idea of someone who isn't", meant as pejoratively as possible, as one slings the insult "a poor man's idea of a rich man"), watson becomes more of an idiot, etc etc etc
but there is one detail that becomes more and more exaggerated with every adaptation that i'm okay with, and it is:
sherlock holmes as absolutely nightmare roommate

re: youtube [3]
I've been wanting to cancel it for months, constantly thinking "I'll cancel it once I get better at spending less time on it".
It's time to stop waiting. It's time to do things that I actually want to do.
re: youtube [2]
But I've realised that I've wasted too much time on youtube. I think it was a habit that grew out of a period where I only had time for an occasional short video, and couldn't engage in something involved.
But I spend too much time each day watching youtube and feeling miserable. Instead, I'm going to try and work on my hobbies and engage with fiction I actually enjoy.
Yesterday I closed most of the youtube tabs I had open on my comptuer.
And today I cancelled youtube premium.
youtube [1]
In December 2022, I started paying for youtube premium.
The main reason: I had found some videos which helped me go to sleep, but being interrupted halfway through with a loud ad was causing issues.
After some time, this reason went away (I found other ways to get to sleep), but I kept it around because I like watching videos on my phone on the way to work, and not having to deal with ads or the video stopping when I switched to a different app was nice.

re: mtg, Lost Caverns of Ixalan [4]
Previously, only planeswalkers could travel between planes, and they couldn't take anything or anyone with them. Now anyone can travel between planes, if they find an omenpath that links the two.
On top of this: most of the old planeswalkers have either lost the spark they need to planeswalk (leaving them stranded all over the place) or are dead.
And I think it's great: it shows a real change to the status quo in the stories they can tell!
