when the theater guy WHAT
I went to see the FNaF Movie today and seeing as I have a total of Zero friends in real world event range and both of my parents hate horror I had to go to the theater by myself for the very first time in my life, which was fine. Until it wasn't
The dude in charge of ticket checks stops me and instead of asking to see a ticket asks if the mask I was wearing was part of some costume. Little black cloth face mask, covid thing. He was an old man on a scooter and not wanting to have a discussion with this tiny old man about Covid19 I just went along with it and said sure yeah. It kind of was anyway, it has a little bear mouth on it and I was wearing Bear Ears and a brown cardigan as well.
Man goes "You can't wear a mask in here." I say "Why not?" He says "You can't wear a mask in here." I go, "I heard that part. Why Not. "Policy, I don't make the rules, just enforce them." I realize this man is being paid minimum wage to sit here and police people so I go, "Okay." and walk past him because he's just some guy in a little scooter in the middle of the atrium and he hasn't asked for my ticket so I assume that's Not His Job
He calls me back for my ticket so I take out my phone with the QR code with my ticket on it and he takes my phone to (I assumed) scan the code and then he pulls out his walkie and calls his manager and I realize very quickly he is not scanning my ticket and I want to Leave Now.
"Can I have my phone back?" "When my manager gets here."
"Give me my phone back." "When my manager gets here."
"Bill. Give me. My Phone." "As soon as my manager gets here"
I make a swipe to grab my phone from him and this tiny little 60 something man in a scooter in the middle of a theater atrium as the audacity to hold it back over his head like I am a Toddler he is preventing from grabbing at a knife.
I am now having a panic attack.
Manager walks over and I am a broken little Autistic man who just wanted to watch a Bad Horror Movie (it was actually pretty good) so I scream at this lanky probably 30-something in the middle of a Cinemark Theater Atrium with many a random bystander around "TELL HIM. TO GIVE ME. MY PHONE."
I swipe my phone from Bill's hand, full turn, and bolt out the door half way across the parking lot and call my mother in a heap on the sidewalk.
It's a very good thing the Five Nights at Freddy's movie was way better than I was expecting or today would have been awful.
#I never rant about anything ever but Oh My God#Oh???? My God???? What the Hell??????#I should point out. I might have said 'tell him to give me my fucking phone'#I say might because I Do Not Remember perfectly#As I was mid panic attack and was really fighting back the urge to Hit That Old Man#But I have been told I swear just a little when I'm too stressed#The manager was SO apologetic like the second he walked onto the scene I do remember that#He followed me at first when I ran but as soon as I was out of the building it was out of his hands so#I came back with my mother and she talked to him and it's like#The little old man is just. Kind of stupid. And an extreme rule follower#No Costume/Halloween masks in the theater is the rule and TECHNICALLY I did tell him the mask I was wearing was a costume piece#Is that still any reason for Taking Someone's Fucking Phone??? No absolutely not#But that's apparently ANOTHER rule#If there's anything sus about someone he's to hold their proof of entry (ticket) until a manager arrives#Which is most certainly a rule about Forgery Paper Tickets and NOT about holding someone's cellular device hostage over a mask#But like I said. This man is very locked on rules and had no common sense apparently#He gave us complimentary tickets after that so that was neat I guess#Anyway. The FNaF movie's good.#I enjoyed it a LOT better than I've enjoyed any of the games#I really was expecting a trash show like the books but man. Man#It was fun.#Not scary like at all but. Very fun.#You could go in knowing nothing about FNaF and come out with the most baseline knowledge which is fun#A good straightforward starting point#However I was disappointment in the lack of Autistic Children talking through the movie!!! Honestly!!!#I wanted to hear a child three seats down info dumping to their parent dammit!!!#Like with the Mario Movie!!!

What's a fun work story involving Kim and P'Mod?
omg apparently you get a whole ficlet :) enjoy! I wrote this instead of making my dinner lol
--
Kim leans in close, lips grazing the mic.
"A knife."
He's not sure how the mic works, he's not used to this set up. This is only maybe his second proper interview. But his answer seems like it came across strong and clear.
The host is looking at him.
"...a knife?"
Well yeah. It's a deserted island.
"What would you use it for?" The host is trying to sound upbeat and chirpy.
Kim raises a brow. "For hunting." Maybe other things, who knows. He's good with a knife.
"Uhhh okay, very useful! What else would you bring? Remember it's a deserted island! Maybe your phone? A guitar?”
"A lighter. Fire's good. Useful." He explains it this time, this host seems to need that. Kim thinks maybe he's a bit dense.
"Ahhh. Okay sure, I get it! You're a survivalist! Do you watch any survivalist shows? Any tips?"
What? No he doesn't. Kim scowls. But fine, he can be chatty. P’Mod told him to be chatty. He leans close to the mic again. “My tip would be, make sure the knife you bring is a good one. Balanced, good for throwing. You might need it for multiple uses."
The host is a bit big eyed. He nods at Kim, a little shakily.
Okay, Kim nods back. This is working, he's being chatty. "Here." Kim reaches into his pocket and brings out his favorite switchblade. Snicks it out. "This one's good-  it's my favorite brand, and the tip is strong. Resists a lot of throwing. Keeps its point well."
There's an almost soundless noise from the host, a weird little rasp. He's nodding his head again, scooting his chair back, fast.
A movement catches his eye. P’Mod is waving frantically through the glass, hand viciously jerking through the air in a fast motion. Kim squints.
He doesn’t know what exactly she means. It looks like she's motioning…a throwing movement? Huh? Okay, he could throw it, maybe a demonstration would be good.
--
After, with the host wide eyed and saying, a little high pitched and nasally, oh don’t worry - the wall’s easily repaired and wow. That knife sure got in there deep, huh?
Well after that, and after P’Mod shaking their head, apologizing to the staff, she grabs Kim and drags him out of the room, down to the break room.
"Holy shit kid, what the fuck. You are so lucky that was radio."
She pinches her brow, sighing heavily, a little bit in shock. "New rule. And I can't believe I have to say this- but from now on? No knives on set.”
--

House Rabbit Society Shut the Absolute Fuck Up challenge
You have no idea what you're talking about regarding literally anything for rabbits. Literally shut the fuck up. Fuck all of you.
#apparently they put out a news release saying that#the rabbits on the petting table at the PA Farm Show are all getting euthanized (without being used for meat) after the show is over#and that they all specifically were bred to be put there and die.#dude literally think before you fucking speak#that would be such a huge waste of time and energy and money and resources#the rabbits on that table are either rabbits that were entered but didnt win enough to get a designated coop at the show#or rabbits that did get a designated coop but the breeder decided they wanted to let the public interact with them#or yes - sometimes they are culls that were already going to be euthanized anyways (usually also used for meat)#the entire point of the petting table is to get the public to interact with breeds they likely have never heard of before.#to get them to care about all the breeds that exist and consider helping to keep those breeds going.#most of the time those rabbits are still important to their breeders' program in some way or could be given to another breeder#to euthanize them would generally be a waste - a HUGE waste if they're not even being utilized for meat or fur.#yes RVHD2 is a threat but A. the rabbits at the show have been vaccinated per the rules of the show and#B. any good breeder will quarantine a rabbit after a show regardless.#euthanasia is not a necessity here.#so HRS please do rabbits a favor and get your heads out of your damn asses#rabbits#house rabbit society#hrs#show rabbits

And you know Lala and Scheana are seething with even more jealousy now…I bet it was Scheana’s dream job 😜
I would say someone check on Tom Sandoval but…I really don’t care about him 😂

You know, I’ve seen plenty of posts and YouTube videos discussing how Rhaenyra would make a bad queen. I wish someone would be original and make a post about why Aegon would make a good king other than the fact that he was born with dangly bits. Despite all of Rhaenyra’s flaws, like her sense of entitlement and lack of diplomacy, she actually was trained to rule. Has Aegon even attended one small council meeting? The people who think that any of Aegon’s short comings can be shored up by the guidance of either Alicent or Otto need to remember that they’re not the ones who’ll be sitting on the Iron Throne. A good King’s Hand is ineffective if the king won’t take their advice. Of course, I’ve already read Fire and Blood so I know how the story ends. I just don’t believe that Aegon would be a good ruler even if Rhaenyra had agreed to support him. Now if Rhaenyra had had the support of the entire realm? Maybe.

Most people: *celebrating Merc Mick*
Me, thinking of Mercedes' track record of actually getting driver's an F1 seat:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
#f1#formula 1#formula one#mick schumacher#i hope it works out and he's back on the grid in 2024 but like merc doesn't have a good track record#like Nico Michael + Lewis were all established drivers when they joined#Valtteri had a few years with Williams under his belt before he moved#by most accounts George would've had another year at Williams if their first choices had accepted the merc seat#because he allegedly wasn't the first or even second choice#Esteban had to take a year out because he lost his seat until the Renault seat opened up#... I'm pretty sure that's all the drivers that have been under the Mercedes umbrella whether the actual team or the driver academy#& we saw Nyck nearly every race weekend in the merc garage so often for years it was almost a running joke#1 race weekend & a conversation was apparently all it took for him to get a seat with alpha tauri#merc hasn't really brought any drivers onto the grid other than George and Esteban#i would consider them both the exception rather than the rule especially Esteban#because his already established connections to Renault assisted him with getting the seat more than I would say his work with Merc did#& i believe merc used talks with Esteban & Daniel as potential threats to Valtteri's seat in order to motivate Valtteri to sign#rather than seriously considering either of them because resigning Valtteri had been their goal until 2021#which was when Valtteri made the decision to leave the team as he wanted more stability than a year by year contract#there's always BTS manoeuvring & politics at play with any f1 seat#Esteban until the Renault move had been under the merc umbrella with teams using a merc engine#he is still managed by Toto#i believe he's one of the few drivers who are & the only one on the grid which is why he's the exception not the rule#Merc has about a good track record with young drivers as Ferrari or McLaren do#spoiler alert; Charles & Lando are the exceptions not the rules#oh god mick i love ya i hope this move works out and we'll see you on the grid in 2024#say what you want about red bull but a solid chunk of the grid has connections there for a reason

Me - ''I want to get better about writing shorter stuff and just putting it out there without thinking too much about it. So I'm just gonna write a short little OrangeHook drabble about Hook being a cuddlebug. It'll be a couple hundred words at most, just a cute little thing, it doesn't have to be a whole fic or tell a complete story or anything like that. Just fluff!''
Me - *writes 1.5k words and is still not done, thinks way too hard about it, feelings are now involved and discussed at some length, there's multiple asides and unnecessary details, silly moments abound and of course, there's age jokes*
Why.

I may or may not have fiddled with a fic to mark as incomplete (since it's not complete technically, I plan to write more for it but only as it comes) so that a certain fandom can qualify for Yuletide...

tell me I’m not weird, please, but has there been like, a rise in pro-slavery rhetoric lately, especially in japanese and japanese-adjacent fiction? (specifically the isekai ‘genre’ and similar cut&paste fantasy fics you’d find on the web)
like, there’s this weird taboo in certain weeb spaces where you’re apparently not supposed to complain about 21st century individuals finding themselves in a fantasyland where slavery is commonplace and going ‘do as the romans do’ and becoming a slave-owner too (often with great eagerness)
am I being crazy??? are you not supposed to find it fucked up that what’s supposed to be a normal dude from the 21st century immediately went ‘oh I can own a person, cool’???
I get that preachy protagonists are annoying, to the point where apparently some would go out of their way and say it’s a colonialist mindset to impose your 21st century morals to a world that’s not as socially developed (????) 
but going the opposite direction and going “lalala, can’t hear you over my mindless Fantasy Adventure with my Cool Slave” reeks of immature escapism and a refusal to acknowledge very real issues with glorifying, not just depicting, slavery in this supposed ‘preach-free’ fantasy
it’s fine for your character to not be a John Brown-tier anti-slavery idealist, but the amount of bitching I see for a protagonist mildly against slavery in weeb spaces is pretty fucking bleak
shield hero was a fucking mistake, ugh
