On Critical Dissonance

Hallo! Holy Week is ending! Easter Sunday is tomorrow! Hooray! He will be Risen!

I had a fantastic weekend last week; if you’re on Facebook, look for those pictures. Hopefully they won’t get posted (too) late. I do also feel a bit like I’m crashing after having such a wonderful weekend, though, so pray that I make it through that.

Presently, along with Delicious in Dungeon, I’ve started watching Shogun, as well as doing Brooklyn 99 again now that it’s on Netflix. Great fun!

I know I’ve talked about this before; however! I cannot find any sign of it on the blog right now, which means it’s been over four years since I’ve written this type of Note. So I’m in the clear!

Remembering Physicality in a Fictional World

I was unsure if I’d be able to compose this Saturday Note on time, as I’m out of town this weekend. But here we are! Hooray!

Let’s talk about a writing issue I’ve noticed.

On Scathach

It is my brother and sister-in-law’s anniversary! I must wear the socks.

My computer had a complete nervous breakdown on Thursday, which was quite infuriating and I want to fight someone at Microsoft. However! It seems to be (mostly) behaving right now. 

I don’t know if I’ll have a Note for next week, as I will be out of town. I’ll try, though.

Hopefully, I’ll get to see “Dune: Part 2 - Dune Harder” this weekend. Either way, I got to see The Play That Goes Wrong this week, and that was quite a bit of fun.

Now let’s talk about Irish mythology!

The Netflix Adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender

We are past the halfway point for Lent!

Now that I’ve completed season one of the Netflix Avatar, I can finish their live-action take on One Piece, try out Shogun on Hulu, and see what elseI can check out to watch. And it seems like they’re taking Community off of Netflix on April 1st.

Let’s talk about Avatar, and about adapting into live-action. I’ve touched on this sort of thing before, but it’s been a while, so it’s all fair game. That’s how it works, right?

Here be spoilers. But, like, just watch the original series instead, okay? If you haven’t already.

The MCU and Magic

 I almost read a different book than the ones I ended up reading this week; however, I felt a bit iffy in the first twenty pages, so I looked up the synopsis. I realize you’re not supposed to do that, and I feel like whipping myself or something, but looking at the summary, I was like, “...no, we’re not doing that.” I had to scramble to find something more cheerful to read. I ended up picking something completely random.

I’ve been in a dour mood. I don’t know exactly what prompted it; I just know reading about someone going through physical, emotional, and spiritual torture is not something I needed this week.

[On top of everything else, it turned out that my computer needed to update as I started writing this Note.]

Random question: have you guys ever used OneNote?
