#Andor reminded me why I absolutely loathe Krennic

Posting my #Andor season 2 watch thread here. I truly don't think I'll ever love another show as much I love this one.

Ep1:
"You're coming home to yourself. You've become more than your fear." 😭

The way Cassian always finds himself in these improbable situations 😂

Also, KRENNIC!! 😡

this is literally fraud. You did not sign authors with the promise to pay their due if you made a profit, you committed to pay them for their work that they delivered and has sold. At the very least this publisher needs to be blacklisted, but hope there are also legal consequences somehow
Authors published by the crowdfunding publisher Unbound will not receive historic royalty payments for sales of their books, unless Boundless, the new publisher founded following Unbound going into administration, "survives and thrives" 👇 #BookSky
Unbound authors will not receive unpaid royalty payments until new publisher Boundless 'is cash stable'

Sometimes the know-it-all nature of social media just gets on my nerves and I start deleting whole posts, lol.

Especially at the end of this week y’all probably need a kitten-in-a-box break, and Indy is happy to oblige.

The King of Nafaati washes up in the village of Makeri. There's been a coup. It's not his first time there, though the last time he was much happier. Now he's back to ask them to fight in his war.

Yani can hear houses talk. There's snarky ones, old & young ones, jaded ones & kind ones. Like his childhood bungalow, who was soft and gentle. Can he ever find another house like that?

90% of writing happens away from the keyboard. In the shower. On a walk. In the car. Wherever you & your thoughts are alone together, that's when writing happens.

If you find yourself stuck, staring at a blinking cursor, unable to find the words, don't be afraid to step away & find somewhere quiet.

I said the sane on twitter. Both guys were not actually douches this early in the books. Gawyn only became that guy after he heard about Mogase. And Galad... Galad was never arrogant, just extremely self righteous. And yes, there's a difference between the two.
Galad and Gawyn.. not fans. I guess we aren't really supposed to be but ehh.. Nothing about them immediately bedding novices felt in character. They've said over and over they keep to the spirit of the books but I'm not seeing it at all with the royal family. #WoTShowSpoilers

Commiserations with the folks having to stay up till midnight/3am for the show's drop, but this is what us GMT folks endured for 2 seasons. It's our time to shine now 😂😅

Slept like a baby, & in 2 hours it'll be 8am for me, & I'm not even fasting today so I'll even get breakfast 🤭

I hate this. Everything in me feels like it's shrinking into tiny bits for having to do this, but I have nothing else at this time. Please share.
