Shock Dragon
This dragon has so much energy to it. Part of me feels like this should be a Thunder type monster, and not just because of the name. The cyborg-like armor granting this dragon wings and a flip blade horn goes beyond just "Dragon type" to me. An absolutely stellar job was done with the foreshortening on Shock Dragon's left arm. Sometimes foreshortening in Yugioh cards falls a little flat, but this time they nailed it. I feel like all the implied motion here helps. Where the background is concerned, the multitude of phantom energy fists helps enhance the motion speedlines, making it more exciting than just varying shades of green. The background in general reminds me of Pahunder for some reason, which only adds to my "this should be a Thunder type card" assertion.
Rating: 8/10

i have this weird memory skill where if I am listening to something while doing something, oftentimes when I do the same thing later on I can very clearly remember whatever it was that I was listening to
and I've been making omelettes for dinner almost every night for the past... month and also listening to TAZ vs Dracula and The Da Vinci Code back and forth while making dinner in the evenings
so now when I'm working on making an omelette with nothing playing, I get weird snippets of those two things jumbled together in some kind of fucked up mash-up story and it's just... such a strange experience fhdjdkl

When a customer jumps to wild conclusions about your motives when you forget to do something you always have trouble remembering to do; because your checkout routine was disrupted and/or ran very, very long; and still makes a fuss over it when you are willing to, and actually do, fix the issue, scolding you for it throughout…
Over (at the absolute highest) five dollars off on a two-hundred dollar purchase. Wow.
I mean, yeah, I fucked up; but it was an honest mistake, I felt gutted bad about it, and ultimately I corrected the error, so I’m good right?
I wish she hadn’t walked out before I could apologize formally though. I don’t like hurting people.

The absolute height of the unintentional comedy of life that I have seen was in the finnish glass museum. Interior design is one of those things that's kind of a big deal here, one of those things that people who grew up somewhere are surprised to hear that their country is not all that known for. My friends share it in the group chat every time an american movie or show they're watching has a vase, water glass or candleholder in the background that they immediately spotted was by a finnish designer. I took up a whole paragraph to make it clear that this is A Whole Thing here.
Anyway, in the glass museum, one of the displays was a feast table set with the absolute classics, hits and highlights of finnish glassware designs - the absolutely fanciest plates and serving dishes, wine glasses and water glasses, carafes and pitchers. I could pretty confidently say that the entire presentation, if sold item-for-item, cost more than my first car. Perhaps twice as much, easy. An unfathomably expensive, fancy, finest table set of finnish design that you and I are too poor to ever get our hands on.
And on one of the plates was a dead fly.
And I had never seen anything funnier in my life. All these fine dishes and plates all empty, and on just one plate at the end of the table was a dead fly chilling on its back like that was the whole feast. The main course. One single dead fly. A human could not have thought of anything more absurdly funny than the specific location that one random fly had died out of pure happenstance. I fought myself so hard to keep my volume to museum-acceptable levels that instead of laughing out loud I went straight into hysterical gasping with tears in my eyes. I could not perfectly recreate the image from memory, but I can't let you go before I try to sketch it nonetheless:

I've seen all the Alien and predator movies including the new prey. Without giving any spoilers, Prey explains a scene from a past predator movie that's going to leave you surprised. It's so good. You're going to have a fun time.
The original of both series are so good. Thanks to bad past experiences I've gained a tick for people only enjoying Alien and predator from AvP so seeing your tags made me smile so wide.
I think I heard a little about that, but otherwise that's the only thing I know aside from the Yautja design. I've remained spoiler free otherwise.
I see AvP as more of a canon AU to the movies if that makes any sense. It's It's own seperate thing outside of the main movie canons to me. I enjoy the series on their own outside of the crossover more tbh, but that's mostly because I knew them as their own separate things first when I watched Markiplier play Isolation and watched the first movie with my mom. The crossover is fun for oc making but tbh most of my AvP ocs could work outside of the crossover.
