Anyways, *puts your faves in the Leyendecker painting*

I’m going to paint you a picture of modern communication, and how it is fundamentally broken.
Let’s look at one friend. You chat pretty much everyday, and mostly talk to this person on twitter and discord, with occasional tumblr DMs. That’s three places you talk. But that’s actually not true, because you also have each other’s priv twitters and talk there as well. That’s four. Now account for, let’s say, one post reply per account per person, in addition to your DMs. That’s eight. But that’s ALSO not true, because not only do you talk in discord DMs with each other, but you’re in a friend group server as well! And you talk in those channels together! That’s nine.
This is one friend.
Now look around you. How many friends, how many mutuals are you in contact with. A few, a handful, a dozen, more? How many accounts per person do you have, how many places can you send each other posts, devolve into separate topics and conversations? How many people text you as well. Friends, family, coworkers? What do you do day to day around catching up, what IRL commitments will rip you away long enough to let the pile build again?
I can’t do it. I cannot live an actual life in the real world and balance this much interaction, it’s crushing. I reply to a friend’s post because I’m interested in the subject, I want to have a discussion! I WANT to talk about it with them, but I immediately kick myself for adding another conversation to the pile. Day by day, I ignore messages for hours on end and watch mountains pile around me, to reply en masse at the end of the night to let the cycle repeat. I wake up to six discord DMs and as I clear the third, the first replies back again.
We weren’t meant to have thirty simultaneous conversations. We weren’t. And you know in your bones that the number isn’t an exaggeration.

my mcr fears are so dumb but they keep me up at night. what if they get an insane pop producer. what if they talk to the media and the media misrepresent public + fan attitudes. what if someone utters the nothing-phrase "nonbinary vibes" to them. gosh

Tbh I am enjoying the stream but. Like. As a HLVRAI fan I am a little upset. Mostly bc my hyperfixated ass will get super emotional over, y'know, the things I am hyperfixated on. And I think it's perfectly valid for ppl to be upset abt the stream being announced/hyped up as HLVRAI 2 only to get something different. And while, yes, this is an RTVS-esque goof, I think a lot of us (including me) were thinking the announcements were similar to those of the gnome series.
This post is nonsensical but I just wanted to write out some of my thoughts bc this blog is my diary god bless

morgan's face when reid brings up having nightmares is gonna make me cry. he goes from teasing him over the amount of sugar in his coffee to concerned so quick. i need to lay down.
he is the best friend and he has so much love in his heart he can't contain it. derek morgan i love you dearly.
you are though!! you are!!
this scene just makes my head explode. the instant switch from teasing to concern. the facial expressions. telling reid to talk to gideon and then doing it for him when it becomes clear he's not going to. what if i collapsed.

Hey you! yeah you stop! don't type another word! listen - listen I know what you're trying to do. you think you're being helpful by going on someones post and telling them to look at a specific media that has the basic similarity to what their post is asking for. But I'm going to tell you a secret, okay? They probably already know it. People have probably already told them about it. they probably have checked it out. because when you have such limited options it's kind of impossible not to hear about these things...and guess what...guess what - they might not of even liked it. Because if someone is asking for representation they likely want it in a story that they'll enjoy. yeah, not everyone wants to read YA drama/romance books just for the representation, crazy i know. Yeah some of us actually want well written stories about things we actually care about. some of us want characters to be like us while they fight dragons or something.
so stop typing that message about how OP should totally check out X media. maybe, if you really wanna recommend something, maybe just ASK OP is they are looking for suggestions and what kind of stories they like so you know if that's even what they're looking for. trust me, they'll appreciate your input a lot more if you just ask.

There’s something weirdly validating but also kind of sad in having a strong dislike for a seemingly harmless thing, figuring it’s just a personal preference, and then finding out the full context and realizing it’s actually worse than you ever thought, but to everyone else it’s still perfectly harmless and they'll think you an absolute killjoy if you talk about how much you hate it.
Anyway, everyone go watch this video on fake psychics, faith healers, and mediums (and this video on fake martial arts by the same creator) and this video on sadistic game shows so I don’t have to feel unhinged alone.
