happy birthday aran!!! have some inarizaki hcs let's go
back when they first played shiratorizawa aran didn't know what to do bc tendou kept yelling weird shit at him and aran was, quite honestly, frightened for his life
tendou: "watch this i'm going to intimidate their ace so hard he won't be able to play properly and we'll win!" semi: "okay, what are you going to - " tendou, putting his hands around his mouth for the whole stadium to hear: "HEY NUMBER EIGHT, GET READY FOR ME TO PISS IN YOUR PANTS" semi: "dude what the fuck"
the twins are SO ready to fight and they probably would have if kita hadn't stepped in
kita didn't even have to do much he just stared down tendou with all the energy of "your most respected/favorite teacher is disappointed in you and you're going to cry bc of it" and tendou backed off
(for all of five minutes. then he started dumping on akagi but akagi gives what he gets so what the hell, kita let it slide)
this might be considered bad sportmanship tbh but it's funny as fuck so whatever
LMAO WAIT SORRY LOSING MY SHIT AT THE THOUGHT OF SHIRABU AND ATSUMU ON THE COURT AT THE SAME TIME THE IMPLICATIONS ARE SO FUCKED OH MY GOD
okay sorry back to the normal schedule
i think bc aran's the ace and court captain people try to follow his lead at school or ask him to make the final decision on things and such and he HATES it. it's soooooo much pressure and he really doesn't want to disappoint anyone!!
like no he does NOT want to be the tiebreaker for what their class should do during the school festival he just wants to walk around and eat a crepe. no he does NOT want to choose what paint color looks best for remodeling the garden fence why the fuck are you even asking him he's part of the volleyball club!!!! he always texts kita for help when this happens LMAO
and even if he DOES mess up the other students are always like, "ah, of course ojiro-san would do that!! he totally did that on purpose!! of course it's because [insert farfetched excuse here]!! why didn't we think of that either!!!"
if anyone's ever seen or read handa-kun (light-hearted prequel/spin-off to barakamon <33) it's basically that LMAO
kita's surprisingly good at telling scary stories
not just that but he tells normal stories in such a way that most people think he's telling a scary story first and then he says some totally mundane shit like "and that's why we no longer store our towels under the bed" and people are like. damn guess i'm not doing that either!!!
every day suna texts his sister one funny zero-context quote from practice. his sister has collected all of these and set up a twitter account for them.
gin thinks atsumu is going to get his ass kicked for not knowing when to shut the fuck up. atsumu thinks he's going to get his ass kicked because osamu paid someone to do it
osamu insists he wouldn't tho bc then he'd just do it himself for free
akagi, aran, and kita tease oomimi for being younger than them and make a running joke of ruffling his hair like a little kid which oomimi actually finds really comforting bc people usually shy away from being tactile with him. like guys come on oomimi is a sweetheart i love him so much

Vis a vis the age of accountability and begging God to kill you before your eighth birthday so you remain sinless:
There is a doctrinal basis for the idea that children are sinless until the age of eight. It's the reason Mormons don't do infant baptism and consider it a mockery toward God; and it's the reason eight is the age at which a non-convert baptism is set.
Take, for example, this quote:
Tumblr media
(The Special Status of Children, April 1994)
See also D&C 137:10, below:
Tumblr media
These ideas did not come from nowhere. Rather, they were written in the baseline doctrine of the Book of Mormon and Doctrine & Covenants, expanded on in supplemental doctrine like the above-referenced talk, and passed down to us in those years prior to the age of eight.

Kurt Donald Cobain // m. 5 April 1994 // by Les Guzman
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Spin magazine contacted us with an assignment to photograph Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. The shoot would take place in their Los Angeles home and would include their newborn daughter Frances Bean. We can't recall having any conversations with Spin prior to the shoot but, recognizing the intense scrutiny that had been swirling about them at that time, we knew we would be photographing them not so much as two famous musicians but as a family." - Les Guzman // 5 April 2024

"The Day the Music Died" — April 5
Tumblr media Tumblr media
"I'm not afraid of death. When you die, your soul continues to live and becomes absolutely happy. Complete peace after death, rebirth into someone else is the greatest hope of my life..."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
From Kurt's farewell letter...
Over the years, my first introduction to, let's say, the ethics associated with independence and acceptance of your community turned out to be very true. For two years now, I have not felt such excitement from anything else, except listening to music, and also from the fact that I am actually writing something. I feel guilty about all this. For example, when we are backstage, the lights go out and the manic roar of the crowd begins, it does not affect me the way it did with Freddie Mercury, who seemed to take great pleasure in the admiration of the crowd…
Tumblr media
This is something I admire and envy. The thing is, I can't fool any of you. It's just not fair to you or to me. The worst crime I can think of is to deceive people by pretending that I'm having one hundred percent fun.
Tumblr media
Sometimes I feel like I should have broken the clock before I went on stage. I've tried everything in my power to appreciate it, and I'm doing it. God, believe me, it is. But that's not enough. I appreciate the fact that the work of our band has touched the feelings of many people. I must be one of those narcissists (Courtney laughs bitterly) who only really appreciate things when they are alone with themselves. I'm too sensitive.
Tumblr media
I need to freeze my feelings slightly in order to regain the enthusiasm I had as a child. During our last three tours, I've come to appreciate all the people I know personally and the fans of our music a lot more. But I still can't get rid of the frustration, guilt, or empathy I feel for everyone. There is something good in each of us, and I just love people too much.…
Tumblr media
...so much so that I'm overcome by this fucking sadness, sad little sensitive, ungrateful fish man.
Tumblr media
I don't know. <...> I appreciate it — very much — and I am grateful. But since I was seven years old, I began to hate all people just because it seems to people that getting along with everyone and sympathizing is so easy…
...probably only because I love and sympathize with people too much. Thank you all from the bottom of my burning, nauseating stomach for your letters and worries over the past years, I am too eccentric a moody person and I no longer have passion. So remember that…
Tumblr media
...it is better to burn out than to fade away.
Peace, love, compassion, Kurt Cobain.
"Eerie deafening silence"
Happy memory to you, Kurt!...
Love and appreciate each other, take care of your children. Their future life depends on your upbringing and attention. May God protect you all!

30 years.
I was 11.
No one paid enough attention to 11 year old me to monitor my media consumption, so I'd been listening for a few of years by this point.
I heard the news break on the radio.
My first trip down this particular nightmare of a path.
11 year old me was already a container brimming with repressed anger. Fury. The rage sadness, and grief of a neglected child.
Kurt was the first to give me a voice i identified with.
To give my feelings names and outlets and expression.
The Adult Contemporary and Soft Rock my parents played in the car was not this.
Guitar riffs and lyrics filled my world with color for the first time.
And this day 30 years ago was also the first time i watched my fragile little world shatter.
I think of Kurt often. How much of what i love now has its roots with him.
The flowers of now were planted by you, Kurt.
Thank you.

I must say, it's pretty poetic that I've gotten to season 6 of Vampire Diaries right before another solar eclipse happens in America. I certainly didn't plan it, but it does feel like my timing is very appropriate with this one. I do have questions about the accuracy of the eclipse portrayal in the show, though. I mean, a solar eclipse did in fact happen on May 10, 1994, and it was visible across much of the country, so that much is accurate. But I don't think Mystic Falls would've had quite as good of a view as they show it having. For reference, here's a map of the May 1994 eclipse path (credit: timeanddate.com):
Tumblr media
And, if you'll remember, Mystic Falls is like two hours from my old hometown just a stone's throw north of Lynchburg, Virginia, as seen on the locator spell map (this one's all over tumblr, forgive me for not remembering what blog I grabbed it from):
Tumblr media
So if you zoom in on the timeanddate map and pick somewhere closeish to there:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
It looks like Mystic Falls would be getting a little over 77% coverage or so. It's also worth noting that the '94 eclipse was an annular eclipse, not a total eclipse like tomorrow's eclipse. That still means that the moon went directly in front of the sun, but it does mean that it was small enough/far enough from earth that you didn't quite get full coverage of the sun (thanks to weather.gov for the nifty graphic):
Tumblr media
So, I'm not positive whether it would've looked quite as dark as was shown in the show:
Tumblr media
Although, I must admit, in this video I found on youtube of the '94 eclipse, (part of me is shocked to find footage from then but I know I shouldn't be like yes they had cameras in the 90s) it actually looks more similar than I expected it to look, but I imagine it was most likely filmed within the path of totality:
youtube
But also, when Kai takes Bonnie to Portland, don't they see the eclipse again there? I couldn't find that clip on youtube just now, but Portland barely had any eclipse--only 42-43% coverage, so it would've been way milder of a visual effect, barely any dimming in the sky noticeable without eclipse glasses.
Tumblr media
The funny thing is, the area where I live is going to be sitting right around 80% coverage tomorrow. I was lucky enough to get to travel to Missouri for the 2017 eclipse to get into the path of totality, but I'm afraid that it hasn't worked out for me to do so this year, which is immensely disappointing to me as an astronomy enjoyer, but I do still plan to go to an eclipse party and I'm going to start saving to try and get to Spain for the next total eclipse in 2026, which is going to be right around my 30th birthday (screaming). Anyways, it isn't great, but here's my best picture from the '17 eclipse:
Tumblr media
I didn't even have a smartphone yet then, because despite it being 2017, I was somewhat of a luddite, so I had the purple flip phone I so stubbornly clung to and a point-and-click Nikon, but I still think this picture is pretty cool for what it is. Here's the zoom in so you can really see that ring of fire (and my shaking hands doubling the image):
Tumblr media
Obviously you can find thousands of better eclipse pictures online, but that one's still special to me because it's mine. Anyways, I'll report back with smart phone pictures from whatever I see of the 80% total eclipse tomorrow to compare and contrast with Mystic Falls's 70% annular eclipse of the 90s, because from what I've heard it's going to be much less impressive than full totality was, but I've yet to watch a partial solar eclipse, so I'll just have to find out. Also, if you happen to have any vampiric loved ones trapped in a magical prison dimension who you need help freeing during the eclipse tomorrow, let me know and I'll see what I can do! ;) Hahaha. Anyways, happy eclipse everyone, and may we all possess sufficient self restraint to avoid eye damage (says the woman who has looked at the sun unprotected so many times and is probably going to go blind because of it some day. I know what I've done lol. Don't be me.)
#posts where I actually feel like I'm using my blog as a blog#Solar Eclipse#Solar Eclipse 2024#Solar Eclipse 1994#The Vampire Diaries#TVD 6x02#is where the screenshot's from specifically#Damon Salvatore#Bonnie Bennett#Eclipse History#nerding out over the eclipse in the vampire show#it's also funny to me how two eclipses in my lifetime are so close to my birthday. I think it probably means I have magical powers ;)#May 10 1994#that's two years and change before I was born#April 8 2024#I'm so tempted to ditch all my responsibilities and drive south to totality but it's an 8 hour drive and I'd have to leave at like 4am#if it was a 4-5 hour drive to totality I'd do it. but I think a 16 hour round trip would kill me and I didn't have the good sense to plan#or book a hotel in advance or anything and everything in totality will be booked up for sure. and tonight is the night I would need to be#in a hotel anyways so. missed that boat. I mean I could go now and just drive through the night. but ugh. I just. ugh. I can but I can't yk#anyways everybody says that the Vampire Diaries writing quality drops off around here but I'm still loving it so far#it's incredibly frustrating sometimes but like. it knows how to give me The Feels(tm) and so I'll let it jerk me around all it wants#I would personally prolly want to stay in the prison world for at least a little bit to get to enjoy that eclipse from a bunch of angles th#like that's a rad as heck day to get trapped on imho. Love me a good eclipse#i ramble#even in the tags I ramble#Youtube
