Oz Escaliers

I just want to catch spelling errors and accidental double spaces and repeated phrases and whenever I use the wrong too/to or affect/effect and shit. But no. They've shoved AI up the ass of every grammar checking software out there and now they all fucking suck and make the most random, obnoxious, nonsensical suggestions.

I get why people keep saying this (and other versions of it like "Use Adobe alternatives" and "Use Google product alternatives."). But here's the problem: I do not create in isolation. Even my own 100% personal projects are getting sent to other people whether it's editors or printers or beta readers and unless every single person in that train is using the same products, things can get wonky.

Libre Office and Word handle formatting differently on the back end, which can completely break documents if you move them back and forth between the two. So if I write in Libre Office but my beta readers are still using Word, when I send them a manuscript for review there's a good chance things won't look right and my beta reader will not actually be reviewing what I sent them.

:| :| :|

And like that should not be a thing!

You should be able to rely on Word*! You used to be able to! Like yeah it would get the occasional thing wrong, but for the most part if it told you to change something, it was right.

Now it’s either wrong or insulting—“Uh-oh. You used the word ‘fuck.’ That’s a nasty no-no big-boy word!” Fuck offffffff

The Jasmine Throne/Burning Kingdoms trilogy by Tasha Suri

I just read The Jasmine Throne and the entire Burning Kingdoms trilogy by Tash Suri! I’m filled with inspiration to make concept art and visualize the words from the book.

What a wonderful, immersive political fantasy with a deeply moving love story.

Here’s a painting of how I imagined Priya and Malini.

Says something about how crazy this episode was that I don’t even see anyone in the tag freaking out about how we totally called it

Yes, he died on purpose but it was because he had plans! Shit to do! And I’m guessing his plan for evading Tachonis Jail was “I’m so sneaky and so fast they’ll never catch me”. Which. Thjaz. I guess he was having to improvise.

But instead of sneaking into the woods from the path, he is compelled to curse Julien by the guy spitting on his corpse! Instead of running around thwarting Nullus and building bridges, he’s stuck watching Julien experience threesomes and The Horrors! Why couldn’t he at least end up in Hal or Thimble or Aranessa’s shadows instead?! This sucks!

BUH HUH HUH HUH

More of my work here! Also, a couple bucks a month goes a long way!

Occtis: yes

Dame Seremai: I'm dead. I'm alone in the darkness without gods. My family sent me to die. Everything was a mistake---!!!

Otto Einfasen: You also wiped out an entire House for seemingly no real reason at all and lied to my face about it.

Lord Cormoray: And my daughter's missing.

Here's the sillies from the last episode.

So Shadow is Thazs code name…what does Julien have on him?

He disrupted the rights that Thaisha was doing, by spitting on Thaz. I think Thaz’s soul is tied to the ritual.

How are we keeping eyes on the Aurora? Just through your serpent?

If anyone's got a better idea.
