quick loki preview bc i have fallen down the rabbit hole since i have nothing else new to watch

the way loki used his magic was such a serve omg

i'm still in love with b-15 ♡

i appreciate the subtle humor, the jokes in other new mcu contents (minus the guardians of the galaxy) annoy me but here it's well balanced yet funny👍

when brad said "playing dress up" to loki idk what he fully meant but my mind wandered to teen loki switching fem presenting & borrowing [stealing] frigga's clothing to try them on for funsies n shit (i used to do that w my mom's wedding clothes as a child 2 lol)

when brad was messing w/ loki he had the opportunity to do the most suicidal thing ever and add sth like "who isn't even your real mother" after bringing up frigga (bro would have gotten ANNIHILATED Ijbol)

the slap was so funny & satisfying at the same time. i didn't saw it coming but i love this side of mobius

this ep's genuinely the most TERRIFYING loki has been in the mcu. in the chase scene and both of the interrogation. i absolutely support it idgaf !! he was more intimidating then he was in the first avengers movie which says a loooot

when loki mentioned the new york incident that was either lazy writing or babe got brain damage cuz i am pretty sure when he was mad at thor & odin that was in new mexico?? when he sent that metallic shit down or wtvt💀 to prevent thor from returning. but i forgive only because he mentioned tony lmfao

i love seeing sylvie finally being content. even if it was thru fuckass mcdonalds. i hope she won't be reduced to the "weird love interest" cuz her chara has potential and you can tell she's tired of this bs as well...

another episode of sylki being forced, toxic, keep disagreeing with & avoiding each other with rather tense chemistry instead of a romantic one they supposedly meant to have & being one sided as hell. their "romance" makes zero sense in this series' context & i could go off for longer regarding this topic but i'll save it for a seeperate post, later!

o.b & casey are so wholesome

bro i'm starting to ship lokius i think? (not in a fetishzing way i just like their dynamics and they just both happen to be dudes/male presenting) cuz i am sensing romantic & soulmate-ish undertones. sad that disney is a coward to make it canon...

overall i loved the 70s-90s vibes they seem to be going for. this show deffo has the best aesthetics we've seen in marvel phase 5 so far and i can't wait to see what's coming next.

it’s stand on business o’clock, cz i know y’all sick gw*les & p*nkflower shippers + delulu gwen stans ain’t try to run my girl bree (@breeandhermunches) off her blog… you got me all the way fucked up and ima tag this in ALL the categories. you can’t do anything about it 🤣 if you’re upset, then scroll ho. if you know i’m not talking about you, then have a great day! 🫶 if the shoe fits, then wear it.

i’m getting disrespectful. ima return the energy you hoes dished out n you better take it like some mf champs. y’all wanted to fuck around so now you gotta hear my mouth and find out. read it ‘n weep. clearing you bitches gives me life.

such a shame we’re back here, but y’all are mad, mad miserable. like, i’ve never seen a fandom so chronically online. are you even trying to mask the fact that you rarely step outside anymore…? 😬

let me making it so very clear why i’m making this post in the first place, bc y’all seem to struggle with my main concerns never clicking in your heads.

y’all have the time to sit in somebody’s inbox and complain about their hatred towards fictional ships, meanwhile the people y’all complain about stay on their pages and mind their business? 🤨 those people being US. ion recall none of us going directly to YOUR pages to hate on punkflower and gwiles. if we hate, it’s on our pages. i don’t go looking for a mf fight, that’s mad childish. y’all were riding bree’s dick like crazy. at this point, her hate for gwiles must keep y’all up at night. talk to a therapist about that. it’s not healthy. i’m gna address ALL the bs y’all be on.

so now that you know why i’m posting this, let me set few things straight for y’all.

“don’t use the ship tag to hate! 🤬🤬” the day you copyright and trademark the tag, present me with an official “tumblr etiquette” rule book or, show me proof that you own tumblr is the day i’ll stop. ima do wtv i want whenever i want, please get that thru ya hollow ass heads. y’all aren’t entitled to anything. not respect, not no damn “common courtesy,” ESPECIALLY not over dysfunctional ships/fictional characters 🤣 i don’t owe you SHIT.

some of were y’all tryna go back and forth with me at the grown ass age of TWENTY. over GWILES. a sixteen yr old vs a twenty yr old, see your life 😂😂 it’s truly alarming. go get employed. if you alr are, then call your manager and pick up some more shifts bc you clearly ain’t doing enough. if college graduation rates begin to decline, i know exactly who to come to. everything’s going up and even tho you should be standing on some mf business so you can afford the cost of living, you’re arguing with teenagers online instead. a lot of you have too much free time.

“you posted this publicly under the tag, you can’t expect people not to want to argue” yes i can! block me and scroll. we don’t have to argue. i don’t remember starting an argument? i was never on your pages. i only reblog shit when it appears on my dash. like i said, i’m not searching far n wide for no damn fight. 🤷‍♀️ nobody told y’all to bitch, whine, and reblog mine or bree’s shit. your issue is that you have no self control. you don’t know when to hold yourself tf back, so you feel obligated to reply. god forbid someone has a differing opinion. my post was never even about the flaws in miles and gwen’s relationship. i was talking about how it is disappointing to see miles’ story be reduced to a love story. unfortunately, y’all forgot to put your glasses on beforehand and read “i hate gwiles.” yes, i hate gwiles!!! but that was not the point of my post. y’all are either illiterate or trying to let off some serious steam. i’m not having any of it. maybe y’all are upset i called you delusional, but you’ve effortlessly proven my point.

this is the internet. you have the tools to avoid seeing what me n bree hv to say, so why are you throwing a tantrum like a goddamn child instead of utilizing them?? you’re not special. the world doesn’t revolve around you and what you want. people are dying n you’re worried about a hate post under a ship tag?? mind you, that was the one and only “hate post” i’ve EVER put under that fuckass tag 😭 bree will make one post about gwiles, and y’all are the ones who’ll drag it out, then call her “obsessed.”we’re doomed bc y’all are doomed.

the white mfs complaining ab the term “snow bunny”… jesus 🤦‍♀️ ts didn’t even mean what you think it meant in the first place. it was originally used to refer to female skiers. some of y’all swear up, down, n all around that being “racist” to white people is the same as racism towards black people, and it’s not. let’s use “snow bunny” and the n-word as examples:

snow bunny had an alternative use before it was used to refer to white people. there’s no significant history behind it at all, unless you count tiktok as history. the n word has always been the n word. it’s always been derogatory, and anyone will a brain would know it’s mad history behind the word. it roots in deep hatred. people continue to use this word to belittle those who are black, or use it lightly around their friends nd behind closed doors as if it’s a common cuss word. y’all’s experiences with “racism” are nowhere near comparable to the experiences black people have BEEN facing and will be facing for fucking ever. white people have and always will be seen as the superior race, therefore, you face minimal to no “racism” outside of the internet, and i’d do anything to be able to say that. don’t even @ me talking about “🥹🥹 that doesn’t make racism against white people oka—“ i don’t care. at all. drink some water. you’ll be fine.

“you guys hate women!!!” “y’all hate gwen bc she’s white!!” like, you sound so fkn dumb nd all i can do is sit and stare at you.

me nd bree are black girls. people from EVERY race and EVERY ethnicity hate black people and EVERYONE hates black girls. hell, not even black men like us. why on god’s green mf earth would we ever want sb else to feel that way??

yk what y’all need to do? y’all need to quit whining and accept the fact that bree doesn’t like gwen because of what she did to miles. it’s as simple as that. stop trying to complicate things bc you so desperately want to deem her and other people who hate gwen “racists” or “misogynists.” no. i fw gwen heavy, nd me and bree are able to coexist bc neither of us are fucking delusional and regularly touch grass 🤷‍♀️ same thing with all my other mutuals.

meanwhile, you hoes get your panties in a twist when sb calls gwen a snow bunny as if she’s a sentient being who’s going to cry over ts, like, no. your feelings are hurt? take a fucking walk! nobody has to like her.

and punkflower, oh my god 😐 i’ve never been homophobic and i never will be. i’m literally queer. i’m not about that friendly fire before y’all try and call me homophobic. my thing is, if hobie was originally supposed to be a nineteen year old, n now his age is unconfirmed, why in the hell would we go and age him down to sixteen?? all y’all wna do is ship that man with miles or write smut about him. some of y’all wanna do both!! you change his age when it’s convenient to you. if you don’t see an issue with that, then i can’t help you. you’re weird. until i hear otherwise from one of the directors, he’s 19.

ghostflower or gwiles 🙃 the reason y y’all are sobbing or wtv. i thought y’all were exaggerating when you said gwiles was your religion, but it’s looking like i was very incorrect. real talk, ion like that fuckass ship. i don’t have to and neither does anybody else. just like you lames do with gwen, you dig deep in your ass for every problematic reason possible. “you have a racial bias!!!” “you hate interracial relationships!!” the fuck?? 😭 do you cunts read what you write before you post it?? “they’re more obsessed with gwiles than we are” “they must be in love with ghostflower & gwen”

…huh? covid really set some of y’all back tremendously because it seems a concerning amount of you lack critical thinking skills. in reality, just like hating gwen, the reason we dislike gwen and miles together is SO very simple. it all boils down to the fact that gwen did miles dirt. and i’ve made a separate post, i’ve talked about why they would never work imo. when i present y’all with my logical reasoning, you dgaf! so the only thing you can do now is shut the hell up, unclench, and cope. since you wna get in your feelings bout it, fuck gwiles, n fuck you too.

y’all even got some of your own people agreeing w me, props to y’all btw 👏 it’s never you i’m talking about.

i hate that y’all made it this deep bc it didn’t need to be. this is a fucking movie. none of this is real, yet you continue to harass me and bree like we murdered your immediate + extended family + the family dog that had cancer. i find myself hoping that one day y’all will realize how dumb you sound, but then i remember some of you niggas are already grown, so it’s looking quite improbable.

and also, don’t b up in my reblogs chattin’ it up about shit i’ve explicitly stated that idc about. i won’t repeat myself because you can’t read. if this post hasn’t shown you i don’t give even half of a fuck about you or your feelings regarding ANYTHING at this point in time, then i don’t really know what will 🤷‍♀️

if i made you mad, go ahead nd suck it up fa me. we won’t be going toe to toe and debating on MY blog because you’ll be actively wasting your own time, as i am not willing to hear anyone out. it’s been that way from the start and it won’t change. if you send an anon message or any type of inbox w some bs then it’ll sit there until the end of time or be swiftly deleted. if you reblog this post trying to invalidate anything i just addressed, i won’t even give you the time of day, bc i said everything that needed to said. i was very articulate and extremely clear. know that i can’t and won’t be swayed in the slightest. we’d just go back and forth until you decide to shut your mouth or block me. so block me now. ian the one.

if you don’t get it, then you don’t fucking get it, but what y’all aren’t gna do is treat people the way y’all were treating bree just because she hates two ships + gwen stacy. you complain about how the fandom sucks like you’re not the same people who make being in fandoms in unenjoyable.

you usually have to go to a therapist and pay for reality checks. luckily for y’all, i gave you one for free! you needed to be humbled and i happily did the humbling. lil piece of advice: stop trying to force people to gaf if they clearly do not. block and move on with your life. you gon get tired one day. leave me, bree, n anyone else you bother tf alone. spend your energy trying to change people’s minds on REAL ISSUES that actually matter, not fucking spider-man.

whew, ANYWAY… i hope i never have to speak bout this again. act right in the near future n i won’t have to “invade your tags” with long paragraphs in which i set you fools straight, thank yewww! 🫶

god bless!! 💗

hi dreamplace. i need some advice. i’ve been wanting to manifest having a hairless body because shaving is like a killer. 💀 it’s so frustrating seeing the 3d with unwanted bs. so i looked into laser hair removal today and I have enough money for the down payment but then i have to pay monthly for the rest. that sounds like shit for me. 😭😭😭 if a do it, i’ll have to force myself to find a job to pay it off. idek if that’ll work out well for me bc life has been such a struggle for me, sadly. in the end, i guess it’s best if I keep trying to manifest the hair away. bc the money situation stresses me out. so ig the i just need advice on, what do you do when the 3d is showing what you don’t want continuously?? it’s not even just the shaving that gets on my nerves, there’s a career path that I want but literally everything i want just never shows but it dangles in my face lol. just like the laser hair removal. i literally got a full consultation with the nicest woman ever. i got excited, just for my ass to not be able to do it. 🤣 it’s sad but i have to laugh. just ugh. i wish i had a secret code to finally get shit to go right for me, even the smallest things. 😩

hewwo <3

if the 3d is continuously not showing me what i want, i move into acceptance and surrender. bc im done. i'm not about to keep getting so caught up in smth when i have a choice, and could be using my time to enjoy whats going on in my present life. period !

here's the thing about it, u have to feel out ur feelings and allow them to be there. allow the disappointment and frustration but also surrender to it. it essentially feels like giving up. the thing is, u get a lot more clear about everything thru this and youre not so clouded by ur own fears anymore. for example, in ur ask u are so focused on how hard u think ur life is. but its like. to be fair i'm not going to tell u to keep sitting there and trying to force in ur hair being gone thru a manifestation bc clearly its been frustrating for u. however ! even after being so close to get what u want, instead of being open to it u went back to the drawing board talkin about some "even if i got a job whats the point nothing works out well" like !! wat ? how are u going to let life change and allow in ur blessings when u rather reject them... immediately ! so what if u fail ? u did smth different, u stopped pouting about lack and u tried to do smth u enjoyed. that counts for so much more than people give it credit for !! i would really urge u to stop using ur life till now as a blueprint and allow life, when it comes knocking with opportunities, and to allow yourself, to be open to whats coming into view for u. the more u focus on that and less on problems (past or imaginary) the more you'll see things shifting. thats just a fact ! plus i do wanna say too many of yall are obsessed with these wizard results (idk how else to call them rn) that u can't even see a success in front of you. and trust ik those type of successes exist bc it has happened to me plenty. but ALSO. life is a journey before it is wizards of waverly place. in my mind, i would have been like omg ! laser hair removal ! i can afford it rn and the consultation was great ! THIS MUST BE IT. but u saw it is as NOT a successful manifestation and ur saying maybe u should just sit there hoping ur hair disappears ? idgi. sometimes things just kinda appear, thats true. sometimes you actually go through a process and get to experience life. and that is amazing and exciting !

also emphasis on ALLOWING. allowing change, allowing opportunities, allowing emotions, allowing fears, allowing life to be what you want. bc rn this was a moment for u to see even if life gives u what u want, ur not going to allow it. but like a post i recently reblogged said, an anon was saying how they finally realized they already had so much of what they were sitting there thinking they lacked ! like omg, its so insane but so beautiful when we wake up to it. u only saw obstacles in that moment, which highlights ur focus ! let this be a moment of renewal and moving forward in an entirely diff direction ! <3

the secret code is fully you and the way you are perceiving life. its not any technique or challenge out there. our good doctor joe dispenza could really help u on this if u like reading. reading his book, "breaking the habit of being yourself" was the most pivotal thing for me to finally realize how i had been so caught up in who i thought i was, that i wouldnt even allow things to be different and yet i would sit there frustrated about why my 3d isnt shifting in the ways i intended. that book really makes you confront who you actually live as, and helps you start making the shifts into who you actually want to be. this is how your life begins to truly change.

#this ended up much longer than i intended #but i hope it is helpful <3

Dallas' Personal Daily Practices? | Dallas Willard [1 Corinthians 9:27]

I have a personal question Dallas feel free to answer it to the extent that you're comfortable: I wonder...

DW: You mean you're going to ask yourself about me [yeah] oh man, let me out of here.

BS: Yeah you're in the Inquisition now.

No, my question is I mean I've always been really curious about this: What's your prayer life & your daily rhythms look like?

What are you doing normally, & things like that?

DW: Well there are very few normal days for anyone especially in our world; so you have to be careful with that question.

Let me just say what is a constant that I can do every day--no matter what's happening right & so normally when I wake I will work through the LORD's Prayer & the 23rd Psalm one or more times..

By work through it, I mean not just rattle if off.

Not at all, you know you start out with: Our FATHER WHO art in Heaven

Now just stay there a while

Stay there a while let that soak in.

See yourself addressing your Heavenly FATHER think about what HE's like, it isn't my boss who art in Heaven, or my eternal scrutiniser who art in Heaven.

No it's my FATHER & so now I have put myself in a position & I can begin to work thru the others by spending more or less time in the same way with the 23rd Psalm.

So don't miss this, ok, this is something you can do if you're the kind of person who when you wake up you can do it before you get up.

But if you're not, you probably better stagger to the coffee pot first, & sit down, and bless your coffee. That's a good thing to do and then work through it...

2.] Proclaim Truths of GOD

Usually when I when I sit up & now I'm getting out of bed, I proclaim the LORD is here, GOD is here & I announced that I recognize the presence of GOD

Well what happens after that depends a lot on the day, but I want my quiet time to last all day long so -- if I am going to have something like a period of reading Scripture & specific prayer for specific issues

And some days I can do that & that's good.

2.1] Remember GOD Thru-out Day

But some days I can't, so what am I going to do well basically what I talked about a few moments ago I am going to keep the LORD before me.

& that involves things like taking a break occasionally through the day, usually those present themselves naturally.

But I don't waste them by checking up on the news, I'm I tend to watch the news when I'm so exhausted that I can't do anything worthwhile.

And that's you know, it's okay because that's a part of our lives, but you want to renew our FATHER WHO art in Heaven periodically through the day.

............................................................................................. Now then that will not work unless you have some days where you're very intensive about solitude & silence & Scripture memorization & fasting. .............................................................................................

2.2] Beware of Legalistic Pitfalls

But what I encourage you can schedule that & I think if you try to schedule it, you're very likely going to fall into a deadened legalism. [4:10]

One of the signs of a healthy use of disciplines is How you feel when you don't do them?

If you feel guilt then you need to rethink it, guilt is not a profitable motivation for the spiritual life--if you see "Well that was a good thing & I need to be sure & take care of that.."

That's different.

See disciplines are like medicine.

The ideal condition is you don't need it. They are not righteousness, they're wisdom & so you need to have a longer calendar.

There are some things you need to do daily & you need to have those down where you can do them joyfully & receive from them

--not in bondage, but in blessing

2.3] Long-term View

Then you need to think about your week & you need to think about your month & you need to think about your year..

So you need to have a longer calendar & for example:

Fasting half-day fasts are fairly regular with me, but every few months I will do a full day fasts & perhaps once a year three day fasts.

By that I mean water only, coffee but not a lot

toffee!

hehe glad i could make you laugh, oooh that sounds awesome! yeah id love to be tagged it sounds great :)

YES the differences are so fucking weird. like, they do know they're the same age right? i feel like its just an exagguration of how much the persons role in the group matters, like we see chan being held up as such a mature, old leader while jungkook who is literally the same age, is still babied etc. like enha hyung line is basically the same age (if a bit younger) as chenle and jisung but somehow the rules are different?? as you point out, still legal but still bizarre. hehe yeah, i mean where else are we going to rant? quora lol. mmm, hopefully more people can just write less smut abt people who are barely adults

ah, no prob it didnt take long. yeah i think thats right (i keep forgetting you know my url lol) mmhmm :( i think if that happened irl there would be some major trauma going on. knock wood it never happens to you or me lol (/hj)

hehe same! oooh glad Redemption For Cheese was realised! yess we cant rllycomplain that theyve written/produced too much good music lol. yeah, ive dragged him into being a stay so *dusts hands off* mission accomplished. mmm yeah, they tend to have a certain vibe but tbh it couldve worked if they were any other group but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ahh ur one step ahead of me on the stages of listening to ssick i think, still not convinced but thats okay! hehe, it had to be said. yesss the itch in the back of my brain is very satisfied by sorry i love you, felixs vocals deserve to be appreciated! (side note i feel like hes trying to sing more like his speaking voice, sorta husky, but tbh i wouldnt be mad if he sang like in glow, his sweet honey vocals made my life lol. but i think ive heard him say he doesnt like singing like that cos it makes his normal voice less husky, so what can you do)

> YES SOMEONE SAID IT. seungmin rap KING, he sped thru that rap like it was nothing, he deserves more rap lines. i do like how they gave minho some melodic rap lines this comeback, my guy deserved to show off those skills that made him not be eliminated (flashbacks to stay collectively wanting to murder jyp) and we already know changbin can sing, my man murdered masked singer. hyunjin can obviously sing as can jisung and felix, and i want to hear chan rap more! i feel like he started as part of 3racha (as a rap unit not producing) and then just became a vocalist (which im fine with, but it could be nice to hear him flex his rapping skills) and was partially replaced by hyunjin. anywayyy

back to album talk. lmaooo sad music to twerk to PERFECTLY describes silent cry. yes secret secret is and will always be, a masterpiece. hehe glad i could make you laugh :) i just felt like they have similar vibes. putting off skz stuff bc of not having time to cry IS the kpop stan life summarised. oh my beloved track, red lights. ahh thats okay, we can have different opinions, but by god the lyrics are *chefs kiss*. *banging on table* TWISTED AU TWISTED AU TWISTED AU. yess id love to see ur take on it! sdfghjkl it would have been glorious

no no! not stupid, just able to predict my brainwaves. ooooh thats so cool! makes me want to go there (wherever there is lol) yeah the waves are pretty good here, but none of my familys a surfer, so we dont rlly enjoy the full potential lol. YES moving on to gone away, it is indeed a heartwrenching track, but the vocals and the bloody key change? makes me want to brave being sad just to listen to it. mmm yeah, good point :( i feel like ive just gotten used to overthinking so much so that it doesnt matter what mood im in, ill do it anyway, so might as well just do what i feel like doing anyway.

yeah i think ur right! it is quite comforting knowing that all the tracks will get the love they deserve. i feel like also people assume kpop is just one genre which is utter bs. there are so many different vibes and feels and songs, i couldnt get into kpop (of which i thought only the bright cheerful present day bts stuff existed smh) until i heard gods menu so... idk where i was going with this but yeah. :)

YES FUCK YG, theyre literally on the brink of being kicked out of the big three and they are holding their salvation hostage without letting them do ANYTHING. idek what thought process goes thru their minds but arghhh its so infuriating. yess lisa's cb will be awesome but ot4 is the gold standard here.

hehe, glad u could get to this point. no no! u dont sound like a cult member at all lol yeah, i loooove some of their songs but the whole 23 members thing is getting to me. thats prob a common problem with nctzens but what can i say? im a simple girl with a limit to how many korean boys i can give my money to. atm im just trying to get into ateez and finish memorising enhypen's faces. also kard is kinda sucking me into their fandom atm, as well as eric name lol. ah what can you do? ooh thats good!

hehe i love it too! its exactly like online penpals, that was rlly well put. aww ty! hmm im okay, recovering from a bad case of rsv so thats fun. im doing okay mentally, starting therapy soon (after having to convince my mother that its not just smth i can brush off). physically i wont go into, basically i should be doing stretches to help but they dont completely fix it so my lazy ass doesnt do them, plus i got told recently im going to be stuck with this condition for the rest of my life so thats fun! ah, before you type smth dw abt me ill be fine. the weather atm is cloudy but warm, its been raining on and off today which is good for the garden. uhh i just finished reading sunburnt veils and im in the middle of prom theory which is rlly good. ummm ive got a concert tonight? that i may or may not be able to sing in (bc of the whole rsv thingo) and uhhhh idk. my dog is cute? im drinking tea rn? ive got a school dance coming up?

wbu? hows ur day going, how are you? whats the weather like on ur end? done anything interesting lately? found smth that makes you rlly happy? just any random thing youve been dying to tell someone?

no no! dont apologise, i love these exchanges. i think im happy to continue them for a long time :) on the other hand, if you get tired of them, feel free to just not answer at any time. goodness gracious this was a long ask haha hope it isnt too annoying

<3 w.a. 🐺

sorry it took me a bit to reply, i was fixing my theme ;n;

yeah, i figured it was because of the roles too. my friends and i still get taken aback when 3rd gen idols are the same age as 4th gen ones. in my head it doesn't add up sometimes. PLS THE RANT AT QUORA SKJDK tbh tho it's just going to be normalized as the years pass? esp that the boys are growing older and the amount of explicit fics will just increase. i might have to start blocking tags.

i had to look up the previous ask to remember what we were talking about xd i hope the events in champagne problems never happens to anyone. realistically, it probably happens a lot. damn i really won't wish that pain on anyone. dragging your brother into being a stay i whEEZED JFKSA additional noeasy music enthusiast o.o and ALL I CAN SAY WITH YOU GUSHING ABT FELIX IS AHA WHIPPEEEED OML can't blame you tho, i also want to hear felix sing more in other shades (if that makes sense HAHA) i really hope they'll do the role exchange in the next comeback :( or like in the near future bc i know they can do it :( the day i hear seungmin rapping it i will respectfully pass away. minho was given more lines this comeback thank fUCK i could rmb my irl being vocal abt her frustration. i don't get why minho barely has center time/lines in title tracks??? like the line distribution in the past eras just made me ???? if seventeen can balance lines with 13 members why cant a group of 8 do the same? moving on. i haven't watched the stray kids show simply bc i don't want to cry HAJS but i've seen clips. imagine if skz debuted without minho and felix?!?!? i rmb another irl catching bias feels towards changbin bc of the masked singer only to find out that the man's a rapper. i love how skz's vocals were highlighted this comeback :c there were a lot of mellow tracks! i find it cute when chan sings/raps bc it gets kinda obvious that he's a foreigner? the accent (im not even sure if it's the accent) it just shows. "putting off skz stuff bc of not having time to cry IS the kpop stan life summarised." CORRECT.

abt the twisted au o.O i'll inquire my irl if she wants to write it or not. if she doesn't want to, i'll do it. i miss writing twisted aus <3___<3 and i also miss going to the beach with my friends :' ) but it's starting to get cold here and i don't think i'll be able to enjoy the beach as much as i would if i went beaching in the summer. so maybe next summer? gone away really has an sm-ballad vibe. the thing about skz being a self-producing group, their songs don't sound like typical jype songs? and i just appreciate that bc in all honesty im not a fan of jyp groups at all. PLS the overthinking. i wish i could mute overthinking.

anyone who assumes kpop is just one genre obv hasn't listened to a single track. if kpop was just one genre why do i like some tracks more than the others??? oh you've only recently become a kpop stan? tbh im not a fan of the bright songs of bts either. i liked their older ones *chefs kiss* really matched high school vibes. yg has good artists and they're just wasting the talent ~.~ that strategy they have will get tiring eventually. people will stop waiting on blackpink and move on to newer more active groups ://

HAHAHAH yeah the 23 members is pretty overwhelming! it was the reason i didn't bother stanning before quarantine started. i don't regret stanning tho, met my ult bias in that group <3___<3 i don't really purchase albums unless i like the tracks xd ohhh getting into ateez just in time for the comeback! let me know what you think about them! i was fond of them at some point but grew out of it. good luck with memorizing enhypen! it took me a while to distinguish to people there XD i haven't checked out kard yet but chan plays their songs during lives and they're sexc hype music me likey *u*

i had to look up rsv im sorry. i'm glad you're recovering! please rest more and don't stress yourself out. bro i wish i could go to therapy too bc i have weird issues i can't justify and i need a professional to tell me what's the reason behind it. stuck with what condition btw? what happened? i'm sorry in case i just forgot. yesterday was a bit rainy for me too :(( it's not the type of rainy that makes me anxious so B) oh concert! good luck and i hope you'll be able to sing but i also don't think it's best for you rn :c what's your dog's breed? and yes i just finished drinking tea too. AAAAA i miss school dances :(( the last one i was supposed to have was cancelled bc of covid.

i was less productive today and i'm teetering between being mentally stable and becoming a hermit again. i'm anxious with a lot of things atm so like : D not the best state. today it was a bit sunny but not hot hot which was nice. i changed my theme today bc i couldn't wait for sept. 1st. and no i haven't found anything that makes me happy HAHAHA shit like that's hard to identify. don't have anything to say too, i'm just thinking about why i'm procrastinating too much atm T_T and i'm listening to this rap song atm and one of the rappers sounded like han.

it isn't annoying! i enjoy the long exchanges but i do admit it takes me awhile to type down a reply. so if i get more busy, it'll prolly take a bit longer for me to reply.

This entire thing is a rant, feel free to ignore it, but I saw your post about how destiel fans can’t win in this context, and yeah. So have some rambles.

I’ve been thinking about the fact we (current spn/destiel fans) can’t win all night... I’ve seen so many people talking about how homophobic it is - and while I would very much like to argue, as every point I’ve seen made by a non-spn fan has been wrong so far, if I did everyone inside the fandom would agree and everyone outside would either call me straight or pity me for believing it’s okay.

(Cas wasn’t even sent to hell lmao. He was sent to angel death (the empty), a place he has escaped in the past. Other points, like that meta about spn has been predicting exactly this for months, that Dean ended up sobbing on the floor because he was so upset, like that death means next to nothing on spn, like that there is two episodes left, etc etc. you feel me right? I just don’t want to post wank to other spn blogs atm, we’re getting enough frustration as it is, no need to add to it.

It’s also worth pointing out that the bar is very, very low. Spn is a prominent TV show - not a Netflix show, or indie, or whatever - and it just said “main character in gay love saved the world”. [insert gif of ghostfacers dude saying that gay love can pierce through the veil of death and save the day here]

I just saw someone saying that spn having Naomi try to brainwash Cas out of loving dean makes spn homophobic (it is a conversion therapy parallel). My first response to that is that Naomi was the villain lmao? I guess we can’t write villains doing anything homophobic because having villains do homophobic things makes, uh - checks notes - villains look homophobic, and clearly we can’t have that.

There certainly are legitimate things to criticise spn about, but this isn’t it lol.

Also now some people are unironically trying to cancel Jensen because “his acting was homophobic, and so he’s clearly homophobic”, nevermind that he’s an actor and his character struggles with understanding his emotions (which I think he played excellently, myself. That scene had a very Dean delayed emotional response), nevermind the support he’s given to us queers in the past. Like. Idek man.

We would have been laughed at if we got no destiel, too.

It would have been worse, had the writers pulled a dumbledore. At this point I also trust the writers not to pull a GoT - they have explicitly criticised that ending in spn’s canon.

Spn’s writers did that by making the main villain of this season, Chuck / God, say GoT had a good ending. To reiterate a previous point I had: villains do bad things because they’re bad. And the bad things they do make them bad. For the people out there not still following, if someone does something in a story and it makes them a villain, that is explicitly telling you the story (and probably the writers) thinks that thing is bad. In this case, Chuck likes to write things for him, and we the audience have been shown and told that is bad.

Apparently thinking a gay confession is good in 2020 makes me straight. Seems unlikely, but whatever. Sorry for the length, I guess I went overboard, I’ve been holding it in lol. Anyway, DESTIEL IS CANON 💚💙 hope you have a good night

Helloo supernatural anon I hope you are living your best life right now. Yeah I’m like..... skeptical and leery myself but having lived through some absolute garbage discourse that is general purity wank, as well as the C/QL greater fandom here and on Twitter I find myself... much more wanting to question the “general wisdom” of things esp in terms of negativity, bc a lot of the time I find.... it’s wrong? Like so wrong. Or at least presents such an incomplete picture of the whole situation and also presents it in such a removed context that words that have meaning and are operationalized in a certain way for a reason, no longer have meaningful usage.

Anyway I don’t... know too much about the specifics of Spn but someone I follow is into it and talks a lot about the Gnostic stuff and that all was very fascinating to me, and I also have been grappling a lot with cultural Christianity bc of cmedia and the way ppl just *clenches fist* unthinkingly or uncritically slap some Christian norms on it and call it a day 😩 help I’m Tired. My thing here being... I actually got tired of the uncritical “superhell”s at some pt bc I am, in fact, incredibly exhausted with cultural Christianity, and because it does seem like, even possibly(?) without the Gnostic stuff it’s different from a “hell” or other Protestant-derived afterlife concept, and also yeah that it wasn’t seeded out of nowhere, it was set up to happen, which then... lends credence to the idea that whatever the current era of Spn is doing, the current showrunners are doing it with purpose.

And idk I just... refuse to believe the concept that ALL of the fans of Spn - esp the ones who have been following it still, or got back into it and are following it currently, are acting under delusion or are fooling themselves into liking it or thinking it’s good or whatever. I personally find that kinda infantilizing and patronizing and playing into issues of dismissing things women and/or other marginalized identities like.

Plus I find the concept that (from what I think I’ve been seeing Spn fans say) that the current era of the show is quite actively grappling with itself, its past, its legacy. to be very interesting and compelling; it hearkens back to like an old lore kind of feeling, of a thing that has grown into a nigh undefeatable monster and realizing that, also realizing that the only way to defeat itself is through grappling with its own nature and transforming and transmuting itself into something else. I personally find that more plausible and compelling than “Supernatural has been actively and continuously queerbaiting for 15 homophobic homophobic years., so right now we’re all very sorry for you because this maybe is no longer queerbaiting but it’s still homophobic and it can never be anything different ever.” I’ve been sort of tangentially aware of Spn thru the years and didn’t we agree, around the time of that in-universe play about Spn and with the lil Destiel shoutout, that Spn has come a ways as far as coming to terms with its fandom and working to treat its fans better? Why the sudden regression into “oh no, Supernatural is and forever will be homophobic and a hate crime”? 🤔

The rest under a cut bc the ask is already long and then my rambling will get longer-

But yeah I mean..... I get that the legacy of Supernatural has been certifiably Rough, but I think people also forget how different of a time 2005 was? Hell, how different of a time 2015 was, even, prior to, say, Obergefell v. Hodges. Now I’m not saying that to blanket-excuse Supernatural, but like, you look at mainstream shows from the era and... there’s a lot of shit lmao. The fact that Supernatural has existed this long seems to me like.... maybe we CAN look at how it’s developed through the years vs just insisting it is what it was 15, 10, hell, 5 years ago. Especially since, to my knowledge, there’s been showrunner changes? Which seems to me like it would... affect things? I mean honestly, I remember back when I got into Spn for a hot second because of Castiel, I remember watching panel, Q&A, etc vids thru the years, and like... I thought we agreed that... it was the fans who were going a bit far pushing the shipping question like literally ALL the time to the actors, who are not in control of the show and.... like at the time.... that could have had personal implications for them? And yes homophobia bad, and people can still be allies despite that, but again like.... I do feel like - from what I’ve seen - that these guys were NOT ready to deal with a lot of that but they’ve (okay Jensen I’m talking about Jensen here) genuinely grown and learned? Also how many years ago was the essay autograph thing that people keep trotting out, like what year was it in and what year of spn was it, and what were the prevailing opinions on LGBT issues and bisexuality then.

I’ve been seeing some murmurings of identity politicsing surrounding ppl who enjoy Supernatural, and I’m sorry that that’s happening to you, it really fucking sucks and it’s also the dumbest way to “make” or “win” an argument because it shouldn’t ever be a final determiner, just factors to consider when considering what life experiences might have informed someone else’s PoV and views as well as maybe how you can better communicate with them. Instead of it being a “weapon” or “tool” to either dismiss someone or de facto validate an argument.

Also yeah I get it that you don’t want to send discourse to spn blogs bc I imagine you guys ARE actively grappling with all the bs rn and it’s a lot. Even just from like, the stuff I see around, I’m like tired of it. I’m genuinely having more fun with ppl who are having a good time with Supernatural than the ppl who are hating on it, even in this sort of backhanded “oh we’re not clowning YOU we’re clowning the writers and showrunners who think you should be satisfied with this,” when... yeah? the people who HAVE been watching the show and therefore... know what’s up.. DO seem to be? And all this based on *fake gasp* context. And that’s where the backhandedness becomes kind of poisonous to me, because it implies that it IS bad, and that you SHOULDN’T be satisfied, but poor little you are but don’t worry, we’re not making fun of YOU for liking garbage, you’re just the hapless victim who is consuming the garbage bc... idk, whatever reasons ppl are coming up with ig.

idk man it’s 2020. Fandom isn’t activism, performative or otherwise, it’s okay to let people enjoy things even if you think they’re “objectively” bad, and like... I don’t know if people can call something bad when they’re not even working with the whole context and instead are dealing with rumor and reputation.

✨Sugar Daddy! Levi x College student!Reader✨

✨AU✨

✨ (Part 3)

✨Rated: M✨

The class was silent as presentations were due today. (Name) had already presented her project and was just waiting for class to be over. That is until she sees her best friend Eren Jaegar get in front of the class.

Her friend since child hood was so much taller now. Not to mention his hair was longer and tied in a bun. Clearing his throat and sitting down on a nearby stool, Eren presses a button on a remote that moved the power point presentation. His title made the whole class gasp in shock.

“My project today is why getting up at 9 am for class is bs.”

The students begin to cheer for Eren Jaegar who had a knowing smirk on his face, (Name) was more surprised that the teacher let Eren present his presentation.

“I can’t believe the teacher let you present your project.”

“Me either. But hey, it worked.”

Eren replied back to (Name) as they were both walking thru campus going to their next class all the while Eren was eating a bag of chips.

“Anyways, that’s a nice purse you got there. When did you get it?”

“..Eren, this is an old purse. You’re so silly.”

Eren hears (Name) laugh but he knew for a fact that purse was new. Not to mention it was expensive, Eren could tell by the brand name. That’s when his eyes travel down to (Name)’s nails, which were manicured perfect. Eren notices (Name)’s new shoes as well. Eren clears his throat getting (Name)’s attention who was on her phone texting a certain man.

“Why don’t we get lunch?”

“Sounds good. Where you wanna eat Eren?”

“...Why don’t we go to the new restaurant that opened a few days ago. Ya know the real nice one across town?”

“Sure, lets go.”

(Name) agreed with out hesitation earning a (Name) noogie from Eren. “

Where are you getting all this money (Name)?”

“Eren! Please stop!”

“You better fess up girl.”

It was a long time before Eren relented on his noogie as (Name)’s hair was a disarray now. (Name) made an excuse that Eren didn’t believe but he rolled with it none the less.

Did he tell (Name) to call him if she needed anything?

Yes.

Did (Name) tell him the truth?

No.

The phone belonging to (Name) had four missed calls and one voicemail. however (Name) couldn’t answer it as she was now too busy with Levi Ackerman, who had been waiting what he felt to be all day for his sugar baby.

The bed began to tremble as Levi had his sugar baby in one of his favorite sex positions, missionary style. Usually, Levi would tease (Name) but today he just felt like giving her his cock tonight. Levi did hear (Name)’s phone vibrate from the incoming calls but he ignored it.

He wasn’t going to stop for something like that.

Not with way she was saying his name and the way her breasts were moving in the rhythm of his hips.

Scratch that.

Levi pulls his cock out of her earning a gasp and whine now that good feeling she was getting was gone. Levi grabs her chin, his steel eyes could cut right into her soul. “Got something you wanna tell me?”

“Wh-what are you talking about?

” Levi sees (name) moving her hips from left to right trying find what Levi so rudely pulled out.

“You don’t wanna tell me?”

“Tell you what?”

The whine in her voice was enough to drive Levi over the edge.

“Just fuck it then.”

With out another second wasted Levi was back to making (Name) moaning his name, headboard banging against the wall and all like it wasn’t anything....

...But his mission.

Only much later did (Name) get a chance to look at her phone as Levi walks out the shower with only a towel wrapped around his waist. For a guy who does paper work all day, Levi was very muscular and toned.

“Who are you messaging you little shit?”

“Come now Levi, that’s how you talk to me after the passionate love we just had?”

“That wasn’t passionate, that was a straight up fuck we just had.”

Levi replied back calmly as he scooped his wet black hair to get it out the way. (Name) was taken back by Levi’s choice of words, which she should’ve been used to somewhat.

“Levi, sweetie...watch your tongue.”

“...You know all about it don’t you?”

(Name) didn’t say anything as she hid underneath the pillows. Levi smirked in amusement as he gets dressed, teasing (Name) was always fun.

“I’m joking (Name). Not really, but I’m just teasing.”

“...Thank you again for helping my mom.”

“Well, that was left field. Don’t worry about it I wanted to help. It was my gift.”

Levi replies back to (Name) as he puts his shirt on and was fully dressed for bed.

“I thought it was really touching Levi. I only mentioned it once.”

“I can remember shit...if I like you.”

(Name) snickers as she cuddles with the Levi Fucking Ackerman. Levi wasn’t one for cuddles, but he was starting to come around. But her wrapping both arms around his hips as sat on the bed with her laying her head on his lap was nice.

“You should meet her, Levi.”

“I don’t see why not. Since we’ve had this relationship for a year, might as well-“

(Name)’s phone vibrated again, this time on the night stand. Levi was starting to get a little irritated by it.

“Hey, who’s calling you so much?”

“It’s just one of those telemarketers.

”Levi didn’t quite believe her, however he got those phone calls all the time. Deciding it wasn’t something to worked up over he decided to call it in for the day and they share a peaceful sleep. The next morning (Name) wakes up to see Levi had already left for work. They’re was a note where Levi had slept which just simply read:

“It would be great if you could clean up again since I’m not there to do it myself.”

That was Levi Ackerman for you. With that, (Name) has breakfast, took as shower, got dressed and then began cleaning. It wasn’t long before (Name) hears the door bell ring. (Name) looks thru the peep hold on the door to see a beautiful woman whom resembles Levi a lot. Opening the door (Name) gets a good look at the woman before greeting and she looked almost exactly like Levi. “Hi, may I help you?”

“I hope so, is my son Levi here.”

(Name) became flustered as the woman who she just met was Levi’s mother.

“I-I no he’s not here right now, he’s at work.”

“Oh, It seems like I can never catch that boy. Would it be okay to come in?”

(Name) nods her head in approval of course, stepping aside the woman then introduces as Kuchel Ackerman. (Name) introduces herself as well and eventually the two begin to talk away, with (Name) making Kuchel tea just like Levi showed her. Eventually Levi made it back to his house for a lunch break. Finding his mother there was a surprise, talking away with (Name) no less.

“What are you doing here mom?”

“I came to see you. How have you been?”

Levi replied back with “fine”, as he sits down next to her on his couch.

“You’re here for a reason, what is it?”

“I can’t deny it no longer...I was wondering if you could make me cookies. The ones you baked last time.”

(Name) found this moment so precious, knowing well and good that Levi was a good cook. Levi simply nodded and gets up from the couch ready to fix a batch of cookies for his mother. Not without telling (Name) to help him out in the kitchen.

Kuchel turns on the 65 inch curved television with surround sound, relaxing instantly. As the night went by (Name) had found out all the baby stories and baby pictures from Kuchel about Levi Ackerman, the woman had fallen asleep making Levi carry her in his arms upstairs to sleep in one of many guest bedrooms.

(Name) was in Levi’s room studying for a coming test. It seemed like every time (Name) blinked she had a test. Hopefully, the upcoming months will be more kind.

(Name) thought back to last summer vacation with Levi which was amazing. The two went to England for a month learning and visiting everything there they could there.

Daydreaming about the last vacation (Name) didn’t notice Levi sneaking up on her, placing both hands on her shoulders giving her a little scare.

“Daydreaming?”

“Sort of...Why didn’t you make a sound or something letting me know you were here.”

“I doubt you would of heard me if I did. When you’re finished with your homework. I’ll be finishing up my own assignment.”

Levi sighed remembering he had a project due at work. (Name) offered to help with Levi’s assignment but Levi refused saying it would go faster if he did it by himself. Levi was going to his own study room as (Name) stayed in the bedroom. and decided now would be a good time to ask.

“Hey, Levi...Are we going to take a vacation for winter break?”

“Only if you make good grades, and you’re a good girl.”

Kiri meta (and a little bit about Suna)

Me: I had an idea about Kiri and their death toll of shinobi.

(Which is, if you ask me, another piece of bs from Kishi that is actually an unsustainable practice in any kind of society)

@shetanshadowwolf: Absolutely

Me: So I was thinking that while literal deaths do happen, what usually happens is one of the various levels of 'death'.

Which can be a damnatio memoriae of traitors (Roman Empire practice were convicted criminals/traitors of the state were removed from all official documents and any likenesses of them were destroyed, effectively striking them out of existence by excising their memory) or it can be that by being beaten by someone else you ended up in the other person's position in the rankings or even at the bottom of the rankings (depending on the differences between two people's rankings and the kind of duel and the stipulations in place beforehand) and so the operative you were before 'dies' and the one who beat you takes on your title and job or it can be a way to terminate a specific identity and either go back to your life or start your life anew.

It can also be a death of the person that you were before and then you have to abandon all previous ties, friendships, favors owned, debts incurred, etc. and you have to start your life anew as a new person and the old you is considered dead to the world or you it can be the death of the person that you were and then not only you have to abandon all previous ties / friendships / favors owned / debts incurred / etc. but you also have given your life over to the one who won the spar / showed how much superior to you they are to do whatever they want to it (which fits with Zabuza taking in Haku as his Tool and it turns that sorta-adoption into a cultural Kiri practice).

So when a Kiri shinobi says that someone else 'died' it can mean a lot of things that depend on the context of the 'death' and while sometimes it is a literal cessation of life even within Kiri, usually the literal cessation of life part happens when dealing with enemies.

But it also makes a great fear-based propaganda tool to wave at outsiders, to make it sound like Kiri kills their own indiscriminately and without any kind of logical sense to it.

@shetanshadowwolf: The second one sounds a bit like what the. Fuck. Brain. The whole "I was the sole survivor of my team/ class" stuffs. Like. If they put four chuunin-ready teams to pit each other and one ones who make it out are down to just one or two operatives. If you really wanna strike fear you brag that the rest died

Maybe they didn't really- they could be broken down in ranks y made to wait longer, etc

But I always felt that kiri shouldn't have, in practicality, been literally chumming thru their genin

Me: Or you can always dump a whole class of graduates down to get re-taught because what the fuck was that, you are not even close to the standards we want you to meet, except you Zabuza, you did great.

And then you reward Zabuza with the 'Monster of the Mist' title because Zabuza should have been way the fuck scarier than he was in the manga/anime (but he was basically the first main antagonist and I know Kishi hadn't even planned or wanted to do that arc so I can see why Zabuza, and hell even Kakashi in that arc, doesn't hold up to other big antagonists in retrospective) and surely had a fuckton of promise and bloodthirst.

@shetanshadowwolf: Yuuup

And an "if you're gonna have a reputation, kid. Make one that makes your opponents flee the battlefield. Short of that, make them fight with fear in their hearts"

Tho admittedly I think a lot of the continuity issues / hey why are things keep getting worse" is just a bad mix of how long everything got and backfill on things end up twisting into mad BS

Me: Oh I absolutely agree on that point, I just have fun with filling in the plot holes and colouring the lines.

I also think that Kiri could have a communal society that is not structured the way the land villages are.

From the maps I've found online, Whirpool (if it's placed on a map at all) was probably costal to the Land of Fire but Mist is his own island surrounded by other islands.

So, to blow some dust off that old theory of mine about ninja making deals to get kekkei genkai, the Mist people probably made deals with water spirits/gods.

Which explains why so many of them have sharp, shark-like teeth and the Hozuki can turn into water and the Yuki clan was basically a cross between ice spirits and ninjas and it explains a lot about Kisame.

So this is the map I'm going off of (mostly because it has Whirpool in it in a position that makes sense to me) and the thing about Mist is that they could have easily not become a village, just remained a set of Clans with their own land, away from the mainland and the squabbles of the other newly founded villages, right? They are away from there, they have the sea in between them and the rest of it, why would they have banded together to form a village of their own?

And what my brain threw at me (which doesn't have to be in contrast with anyone else's idea, this is just my own headcanon) is "Trade and Fear of Raiding."

Hidden Mist is clearly self-sufficient, they can afford to survive in their islands, but they have to have some materials/production that nobody else has because what you find on the coast is not the same kind of things that you get from the deeper sea and so they have stuff that they can trade but that can also be taken by them and while I would headcanon that they had trade with Whirpool, the moment Whirlpool went into a marriage alliance with the newborn Leaf, who is a village of ninja clans that falls under the command of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, the Mist Clans probably looked at each and went well, fuck.

Because now their trade partners not only are a smaller village full of badass seal masters who can pop chains out of their bodies but now they also have the support of the Clan of A Thousand Skills, aka the Senju, and the scariest motherfuckers around, aka the Uchiha, and they are collecting other powerful clans, like those noble assholes who were all cozy with the various Daimyo's and could see through most shit, aka the Hyuga, and the scary as fuck Nara and their merchant buddies the Akimichi and those scary rip-your-brain-out Yamanaka, as if they are prizes at a fair.

That's ... that's fucking scary is what it is.

@shetanshadowwolf: When presented that way, yes

Me: And then other Villages start to form, including Cloud at their north (which I headcanon other villages formed exactly because the newborn Konoha was a huge threat to all other Clans and also because some Clans were shafted because their rivals joined first and they weren't allowed to and what are they going to do, play sitting ducks for their enemy clans? Fuck no, let's talk with others and make our own village and that's how we get to rival villages) and okay, hold your fucking horses, do we all agree that we are sitting ducks here? I mean, we are the toughest, nastiest motherfuckers around, we have done our deals with the spirits of the wind and sea, we are strong, yes but we are also one isolated, large island with smaller islands around and no way to easily decamp, not that we would if we could. This is our land and fucks everyone else if they try to take it from us.

[For an example of 'potential a clan who wanted to join Konoha but was not allowed' see the wasp people who have a beef with the Aburame and who apparently had the first Tsuchikage as a clan member. Those two clans reciprocally look down on each other and are bitter enemies and it would come to no surprise to me if the Aburame joined as long as those assholes don't. Not everyone is Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara and is either mutually willing or mutually able to convince their clan to bury the feud and so of course they ran and so the other Clan Head went 'fuck you all, I'll make my own damn village and it will be better structured and truer to our ideals than yours could ever be' and that's how we get Iwa being founded.]

So, being faced with the various land Daimyo's getting their own militias and with the chakra-wielding Clans thinking they were faced with the threat of other Clans banding together and being able to overcome them and either assimilate them or steal their trade/islands/people the Mist Clans probably met together and a deal was made for a Hidden Mist Village to be founded (possibly with someone playing as a puppet Daimyo so they could argue for political sovereignty over their own territory and nobody could use a lack of Daimyo as an excuse to invade or 'bring them to heel' or whatever shitty propaganda reason would be found).

@shetanshadowwolf: ... Valid points. (And had not zoomed out to note that some of the country to country rivalries might be as strongly tied to the previously vicious clan rivalries)

Me: They are pretty isolated.

So what they know is that some time ago, how much time ago differs from person to person, the Senju and the Uchiha buried their differences and founded a village and other Clans joined them and then some more Clans formed their own villages and now every Daimyo has a village and here they are, isolated from everyone else, behind on information, surrounded by potential enemies, with probably some pretty good trades.

Kiri is the place the Seven Swordsmen hail from that means that they have to have figured out how to make the Seven Swords which means swordsmanship and swordsmithing and probably good smiths in general on top of precious, luxury materials like mother of pearl, pearls, corals, healing methods/productions that are based on either product of the sea or things they could grow on their island etc.

A bunch of Clans working with each other and making mixed Clan teams and teaching chakra-wielding civilians how to pull off techniques and working for their Daimyo? That's a fucking problem.

@shetanshadowwolf: Yuuuup

Me: Kiri's people were hard, to begin with, because life out at sea, even on a big island, is a pretty isolated and self-sufficiency-requiring kind of system and they were probably close-knit, to begin with, a community that supported each other and because they were comparatively small and had less access to the resources of the other Villages they made themselves harder still.

Balls to the wall, we are the scariest, nastiest motherfuckers you will ever meet and you have better leg it before I chop your legs off and sink my teeth into your throat.

(Which is not to say that Kiri is necessarily nice or soft or home to a lot of sane ninja. Ninja as a general bunch are pretty insane people and Kiri was hard, to begin with, and got harder as they made deals with ice spirits and sea spirits and got even harder as a Village but it's not the outright let's throw together a bunch of scary tropes without rhyme or reason because they look cool bs I got from the canon)

@shetanshadowwolf: Kiri is not soft

Me: Not at all.

They are pretty much feral whenever someone Not One Of Us is around and they are hard as hell but tight-knit too when it's Just Us.

At least until Madara came around and screw them up and over and fucked with the Clans by destroying them and basically did everything he could to stoke them into becoming the hell pit every outsider thought they were, pushing them into being what Obito had grown up hearing about.

@shetanshadowwolf: On the scale of "we are our element/affinity" sand and kiri are some the baddest bitches, per se

Sand with its puppetry and poisons and the desert WILL devour you

And Kiri with its mist and feralness

Me: And, I would argue, water as well.

Zabuza did a few water attacks on top of the swordsmanship as did Hoshigaki Kisame.

So Sand is puppetry and poisons and the desert WILL devour you and Kiri is mist and feralness and swordsmanship and the sea WILL swallow you up

@shetanshadowwolf: Yes. Desert dehydration and water's all-powerful consumption

Two different sides of a brutal coin

Me: And since Suna is considered one of the weaker villages, big enough to be one of the 'Big Powers' but also inferior to Konoha / Iwa / Kumo I would say that Suna, like Kiri, was a village founded in direct reaction to the Big Three founding themselves.

Desert is not welcoming, like Kiri it's an isolated kind of living and I could see their Clans initially being nomadic, except that with those encroaching powers (especially highly militaristic Iwa at the north with two unnamed regions between them on the left side of the map that do not seem to have enough importance to be labelled or have a village that could be crossed by the Iwa people to spill over Suna) they also felt they should pull together and form their own village.

Consolidate their territory, make sure they can support each other and defend themselves in the face of outsiders and probably under pressure from their own Daimyo, since we know that there is a Daimyo of Wind that was turning his back on Suna and outsourcing missions to Konoha in Naruto's time.

What politician would want to be the one of the Four Great Lands (Five once Kiri declared itself a sovereign territory of their own) without its own standing militia? Especially with an aggressively militarized neighbour at the North and someone in the East who can not only capture and hand out Bijus but has also managed to entice both of the all-seeing eyes clans and has the sealing masters on their side.

These past 24 hours have had me in a state of shock.. Gonna just vent it all out to get it over with and move past this bs.

It really amazes me how selfish and self-centered some people are.. You think you know someone and then they show you their true colors lol. You’re the person that goes above and beyond for them for YEARS and then when they suddenly feel better and find people more similar to their preferred lifestyle, they throw you under the bus. Lol I truly find it ironic how you can do so much for someone for so long and they never appreciate it. To say I’m shocked would be an understatement, but our friends say they were not surprised because this is the type of person you are. I wish they told me earlier and I don’t know why I never saw it, but I’m glad you finally showed me, otherwise years down the road, it would have just hurt more. I am in a period of my life where I am working towards my future.. all of us are making strides and trying to better ourselves and open up our career opportunities. You, on the other hand, are the type to focus on your present happiness. You want to party and have fun, and while that’s fine for a time, you don’t want to be spending the rest of your peak years doing that, do you? Your new friends are in their mid-twenties and not doing anything about their careers. You guys go out and party and mess around every other day. What will amount from that? What kind of progress will you be making by hanging out with these types of people?

Anyways that’s none of my business. My business is me. And you have made me feel angry, hurt, doubtful. You made me question my value as a friend. I’m really glad I have the others here for me, to reassure me that the things you said were untrue and spoken out of emotional lunacy. I know that I am a great friend and that I have done so much good in the lives of others. You made me feel so undervalued. You made me feel as if my feelings weren’t as important as yours. Where the others always thanked me for the things I do for them, you never truly appreciated me.. I see that now. All those times I’ve been there for you.. literally doing MILES more than anyone ever has or ever will do.. you’ve taken me for granted. I gave and gave and you just kept taking and taking. When have you ever given back to me? I was always the one picking you up, making you feel better, supporting you, encouraging you. Friendship is a balance between give-and-take, and all you did was take.

I know down the road you will eventually realize that you made a mistake and you will regret treating me this way. Even my own friends who barely knew you told me that they could see how much I do for you. I guess everyone could see it except you. Where were your new bffs when you were torn apart, crying all those nights? Where were they when you were heartbroken and lost? They were like “oh so sorry.. let’s go out and have fun so you can forget about it” but did they ever take you into their home and tuck you into their bed when you showed up high and crying at 2am? Did they ever stay on the phone with you for hours while you were drunk and bawling your eyes out? Did they ever volunteer to pick you up when you were stranded on the streets? Did they ever encourage you to study and work towards your future and pursue your dream school despite the odds? Do they even do anything except invite you out to have fun & drink and let you complain about your love life? Who was there all those times you were at rock bottom? Now you’re better and they wanna hang out with you more. Coincidence? That’s because friends like that only want you during the good. Real, true friends have been with you there the entire time, thru the good times and the bad times. And you may have attacked specifically me, but we all agree that it was an attack on all of us. If you hang out with them in the future, I hope you know in the back of your mind that even though they don’t explicitly say it, you’ve broken their trust too. You attacking and hurting me opened their eyes as well. You only cared about how you felt and not how your actions have affected all of us. You were inconsiderate towards everyone but yourself.

You are a hypocrite. Saying we shouldn’t do this and that when we all agree that you were the biggest culprit. Suddenly it minutely involves your new homegirl and you make a 180? lol truly hypocritical and you know it. You turn around and say all these nasty things about me. At first, I wasn’t even going to bother replying. But then you continued to try to provoke me so I took some time to think about it and gave you a response. I pointed out the flaw in your logic and told you the straight up truth. I still treated you like an adult. I still showed you respect, but you reacted irrationally. You couldn’t handle it because you knew you were wrong. You decided to remove yourself, and you know what? That’s fine. Like I told you yesterday, I don’t have time for this kind of immaturity. If you want to handle your problems by being shady and starting drama like high schoolers, that’s on you. But I have so much more going for me rn and I don’t need to spend time chasing after people who don’t appreciate me. Speaking of the truth, you say you started having bad feelings for me since a couple months ago. In between that time and now, we have hung out alone multiple times and have had talks where we told each other how much we appreciated that our friendship is strong enough that we could always be honest with each other if we ever had issues with the other person. Everyone that knows me that I am honest, probably to a fault. But what comes along with honesty is that I am always straight up with other people and am willing to talk thru any misunderstandings and come up with a compromise. You pulling that shit yesterday basically proved that you are fake, if what you said is actually true. You were fake this whole time and thru all those conversations we had with each other.. Yesterday, you said we don’t really know each other after all. You’re right. I didn’t know you. I never ever thought you would turn out to be so fake, two-faced, and hypocritical. Narcissistic, stubborn, and emotional, yes. I knew all of these but nobody is perfect. Friends accept you for who you are. These things I could see past because I loved you and cared about you. But I never thought you would turn out to be this cruel.

I honestly wonder if you will ever take a step back and reflect on your actions. Will you ever be able to mature emotionally and recognize the things you’ve done and their consequences? Or will you continue to run to friends and let them validate you, despite you being wrong. This is a mistake our friends and I have been making.. and now it has turned around and bitten us. We agree that we cannot make someone learn if they do not want to learn. You never truly wanted to learn your lessons. That’s why you continued to go thru the same problems with the same people over and over and over again. We realize now that we babied you for far too long and now you’ve become used to this type of behavior. We made a mistake, but we will learn from it. Will you?

What bothered me the most wasn’t that you were a hypocrite or that you said nasty, irrelevant things about me. I guess what hurt was knowing that you took me for granted all these years. All these years I’ve spent giving you my friendship, support, loyalty.. and you throw it away for these new “friends.” I introduced you to this girl.. you’ve seen the damage she has caused our other friend, and you still choose to defend her despite it all. Now I never really said much about you staying friends with bad people (not just her, but the other guy too) because you can choose whoever you wanna be friends with. But to choose them over someone who has been there for you since day 1 thru literally everything.. wow. priorities.

You say I talked about you behind your back, but who would I have even talked to? I don’t talk much to any of your friends, much less about you. The only people to whom I’ve even said your name are our friends, and they know that despite everything you do, I’ve always tried to be supportive, despite not completely condoning your behavior. You tried to manipulate our friends by texting them individually and saying bad things about me. Who is the real person talking badly behind the other’s back now? I’m glad they told me.. and I’m glad they knew better. That is so vindictive of you, trying to make our friends feel bad for you and make me look like the bad guy. I will never ever make them choose sides but I’m SO fucking thankful they are mature enough to realize what is morally right and wrong in this situation. I’m so thankful that they appreciate me and are honest with me.. something you evidently cannot do. I’m not even mad. I’m just so disappointed.. this is the person you turned out to be.

If you showed me that you even cared for anyone else’s feelings besides your own or that you could listen to anyone else’s perspective besides your own, I think I would have tried to talk to you. I’m glad you showed me your true self. Our friends say they always knew you were like that and expected that to happen, but I never saw it coming.. you really blindsided me.. I think I was the one that always tried to see the good in you, always kept trying to help you and guide you and support you. What you did and how you handled it was immature, selfish, inconsiderate.. I was so shocked last night and all of today. But I’ve finally come to terms with it. This is who you are.

Our friends are right. We are on different paths in life. Partying and having fun and making new friends is your priority right now. If you are truly happy being stuck in that scene and being around these types of people who will never help you amount to anything more, then good for you. You’re caught up in these temporary fleeting moments of happiness doing “fun” stuff and getting to know these new people. That’s fine. I know that in time you will see that you’ve made a mistake. Whether you’ll find the courage to own up to it and try to fix things, I don’t know ..nor do I really care right now. You’ve really stabbed me in the back and everyone agrees that I made the right decision in cutting you off. I don’t need your toxicity in my life. Maybe you were just holding me down the entire time. I gave and gave and now my love for you is empty. You took all those years I gave you and you broke it. All for what.. these temporary people and the temporary fun. You’ll regret it. I know it. You know it. Everyone knows it. When they abandon you or when you outgrow them, don’t crawl back to me expecting open arms. You broke our friendship and the trust we shared. Next time you’re broken, you’ll be alone and you’ll think about this moment. I really hope they were worth it.

hello, do you mind me asking what happened with sleepy hollow? I only watched the first season lol

not at all! okay so first off, congratulations on escaping the train wreck early. second, there was a shitload of bs happening behind the scenes, 99% of which we are still in the dark about. the rest is under a cut bc damn.

BUT ANYWAY, the biggest point is that they killed abbie off. like full stop, not joking, they legit killed. her. off. which was a good/bad thing. good, bc nicole was being treated like shit bts & wanted off the show so she could get herself out of the situation. bad, for obvious reasons. also bc they actually thought the show could continue w/o her.

the first big problem they had was gradually shifting the focus of the show from abbie + her relationships w/ jenny, ichabod, & irving (+ the various other characters in her life that they either killed off or conveniently forgot abt lmao.) to ichabod’s crusty-ass boring-ass family and past. as u saw in the s1 finale, abbie stayed behind in purgatory so ichabod & katrina could leave. katrina stayed, continued to be a fucking nuisance at best, & they introduced a cool new mysterious character played by john goddamned noble and ruined it by making him ichy & floptrina’s nasty-ass son, also the horseman of war. oh and also death is actually ichabod’s old bro w/ a hot bod who was all set to marry katrina b4 ichy waltzed his homewrecking ass in. anywho, boring boring boring bullshit that had way too many storylines happening at once, none of which were interesting in the least. i genuinely forget if we already knew the henry/jeremy and abraham stuff in s1? so if i’m repeating things u already kno, forgive me. i feel like maybe by time s1 was over we already knew henry was actually jeremy who was actually war, bc wasn’t he in 1x06?? whatever, don’t care, he’s a piece of shit

the second big problem is that they sidelined and/or got rid of all of the poc/good characters: luke, irving, cynthia, macey, andy, ABBIE, JENNY, all while introducing cardboard cut-out white people/BAD characters no one gave a rat’s ass abt. oh and also corbin was like completely forgotten abt, until his son came into the picture and they mentioned him like…….twice. but yeah lmfao, it was a miracle if jenny showed up for longer than 3 min & abbie was continually given the b plot and less screen time.

the third big problem was that they FORGOT ABT THE MAIN FUCKING PLOT POINT. that abbie and ichabod were the WITNESSES who were supposed to be WITNESSING THE APOCALYPSE. like i’m not even shitting you, the apocalypse ceased to be A Thing. (btw what the fuck happened to moloch???? i don��t even remember,) death/headless horseman/abraham was given humanity & a storyline no one asked for & they were really trying to push a weird romance angle between him and katrina since they were together when he was still ~alive. war/henry/jeremy was the next horseman to be introduced, simultaneously w announcing he was the demon spawn of ichy/floptrina. so that was something we had to suffer thru. Crane Family Drama was a BIG tag in this fandom during that time. no one cared. everyone hated it. even the fucking ichatrina stans started getting tired of it, if that tells u anything. so anyway, once death and jeremy were dealt with, idk?? they just forgot abt the apocalypse being a thing???? fuck knows, man. i’ve almost successfully blocked most of the bs in my mind.

during this time, ~s2, orlando got fired. or he was “asked to leave”, so, you know. my man hadn’t given a fuck before, getting fired just let him release the last of the fucks he had. also during this time, the writing was just getting worse and worse. i mean, BAD. like it was on a steady decline since b4 mid s1, but s2 was the relatively small cliff of bad writing before the exponentially cavernous shit hole that s3 became. they started treating abbie like SHIT during s2 and ichabod continually resembled more and more of a flaming bag of dog feces.

but yeah, s2 finale, katrina has revealed herself to be the evil-ass snake we all knew she was, tho the writers copped out by saying she was good the whole time until she started to feel bad for her shitty son & decided to side with him. whatever. bitch was evil from the start. in the finale she starts up this spell to send herself back into the past to kill ichabod to nip the whole resistance to the apocalypse thing in the bud. in the middle of doing that, abbie jumps after her, so they both get sent into the past. there was some admittedly very cool parallels to the pilot w abbie waking up in the forest and stumbling around & bending down to touch the road she comes across, etc. long story short, abbie meets up w past!crane, they go to franklin first, he dies, then they go to grace dixon, & she’s able to send abbie back to the future and reverse the spell. so abbie and katrina are sent back to present day and kathy is pissed as hell that abs disrupted her plans and goes to kill her, but crane stabs her ass b4 she kills abbie. everyone rejoiced at that, let me fucking tell you. that shit was therapeutic.

s3 starts, they’ve already lost a lot of viewers throughout s2, but the stragglers are still clinging onto the show bc the s2 finale gave us hope that they might be able to dig themselves out of the hole they wrote themselves into. boy were we wrong. it started out alright, we all had high hopes. abbie had left to go to quantico & had become an fbi agent. crane was……..fuck knows. i think he took a sabbatical or some shit bc of the ~grief. it’s been like a year or whatever and all the sudden abbie is bailing his ass out of prison. he got a boy band haircut. they introduced a new guy, daniel, also fbi, played by lance gross, and teased a relationship between him and abbie. they also introduced a new villain pandora, fine, and breasty ross, who added absolutely fuck all to the story and just complicated their poorly thought-out storylines even further. also there was an angel???????? idk, i think he liked abbie and ichabod got jealous. that may have even been in s2, i don’t fucking remember, i wasn’t religiously watching at this point bc i had some sense of self-preservation. daniel was promising, and black, and a love interest for abbie, so of course his ass got the axe. there was a weird and uncomfortable bones cross-over. like, a cross-over with the show bones, on fox. in a desperate attempt to rake in viewers. it failed, to say the least.

i don’t remember the details tbh, but s3 finale abbie essentially sacrifices herself, again, for ichabod. only this time it was permanent and it was somehow even WORSE bc they had her do it just to further ichabod’s man-pain and journey. they literally had her say that her job as a person and as a witness was to further him, the white guy. she told him and jenny to take care of each other and fucked off to the afterlife. after which, neither of them really mourn this?? whatsoever?? and we find out abbie’s soul was actually placed into a little girl? fuck i have no idea, i didn’t watch it. so anyway, abbie’s dead, ichabod moves to washington, dc, and the show is somehow still crawling along while disemboweled, dragging itself along the dirty ground w bloody hands, begging for the sweet release of death. the writers refuse, and beat the dead horse even deader. bring in a new batch of characters, jenny & joe (corbin’s son) are somehow still relevant, ichabod is a shadow of the man he used to be (mostly due to t-mis’s hilariously lacking acting job, praise be). i can’t tell u anything that happened in s4 bc i at least loved myself enough to not watch that horseshit.

all in all, it was a cocktail of good ol’ racism, bad writing, and arrogance that was shitty hollow’s downfall.

#asks #anon #sleepy hollow #shitty hollow #shady hollow #this ain't even half of it. just be glad u got out when u did #this took so long i highly doubt ur still up im sorry :/

i can remember going to like five bday parties

1. kid in preschool who invited pretty much everyone. all i remember was going up the driveway

2. kid in elementary school named tommy who didn't have hardly any friends, same. we went to the bowling alley and i'm sure that was great. i'm cool with bowling.

just remembered i had a kinda friend named sophia for a few years cuz our moms worked together or smthing. she was fun we just didnt see each other that much. also had a friend in early elementary school named michael who i enjoyed being around, which was rare i actively wanted to be friends with someone, he was cool too. i think he went to a different school after a couple of grades tho. another rare friend i wanted to be friends with was the one where we were both so quiet that im not even sure we spoke the same language, in a literal sense. but that was the one where one day i guess the teacher wanted to make an example out of a couple quiet kids who never did anything coz we were getting a kick out of looking at each other thru the holes in our folders and it wasnt even a lesson but i had to carry my assigned desk across the room and for someone who interprets attention as dangerous it was a trial for me though i pretended it was fine coz i have had a stubborn streak since old enough to have like any traits at all. other people i wanted to be friends with pre-college: josh, who i was friends with, but after we went to different schools and i found him on facebook he refused to talk to me coz he was going through a hardcore late emo phase i guess and i hope that part of his life has settled; emily, who was cute and friendly and we were acquaintances who shared classes but i never spoke to anyone and we never got a friendship going thru coincidence, saw her years later at my summer job and she seemed alive; arissa, who i was friends with and could goof around with but then we went to different schools and never had any contact since

3. a sorta friend from since-preschool, this one was pretty fun, it was a smallish sleepover and we watched a movie and did the thing where you pour some colors into a mold and bake ur own custom superball, there were fireflies too, her parents were nice.

4. a friend who had a pool party which was great b/c i like pools. accidentally gave her a present meant for my dad because they were the same size and i wrapped them together coz their birthdays are close together and i didnt even realize it until my dad opened the one meant for her a few days later. classic

5. a friend who went to a concert kind of but it was like a mom concert especially since her mom took us and it was fine but i dont count it as my first concert which was me sneaking off to see kesha. it was good except she hadnt ever said it was a birthday thing so i hadnt brought a gift and there was only one other person invited, who totally had. Classic

6. just remembered another one which was a elementary school friend for a couple years, all i remember really happening was using coloring books and she got really stressed about finding a marker she'd just gotten as a gift because her parents would be mad. also got stressed when something spilled i think. i recognized that pretty easily so im really assuming her parents were abusive too. she wasnt always that great a friend though and it made me mad, like one time in art class she asked my advice on how to fix flower stems she'd painted too wide and i said well all i could really think to do was use some white paint on it, and when she did that and the paint didnt opaquely cover up what she'd painted she got mad at me and for some reason stole my scissors to get even with me for ruining her painting. third grade me didnt think that was cool. plus she always took half my sandwich at lunch, like, bro. but that wasnt as annoying as the time a friend in middle school who was one of the only people to actually hang out with me was not only going thru a period of not hanging out with me but also only talking to me to get my math homework to copy from during lunch. and then one day she didnt even give it back before lunch and our next period was math and anyways i was upset about getting a zero but then i didnt care pretty quickly. she was pretty nice anyway. and i came to give like rock bottom amt of shits abt school within time so looking back im definitely not even mad. that scissors thing was still out of line tho by contrast

thrillingly i thought of that topic coz once i tagged along to a bday party of one of my sister's friends, my sister being a person who actually has friends. it was pretty fun and it was just backyard running around and one of them let me race them around in circles on a bike, which i recognized as gracious from a kid three years older. i think that was where my sister got a plastic cup that looked like a coconut that my mom took and threw away later to punish her for whatever and i remember coz my sister cared enough about it to ask her not to throw it away but of course that doesnt work

i had a bday party once? in elementary school. i guess we saw a movie but im not sure what it was. and it was a sleepover so apparently i couldnt invite my friends who were boys, which was at least half of the precious few of them, which i thought was dumbassed as hell, on account of it was. plus for like weeks in advance my mom threatened to cancel it for whatever thing of the day was pissing her off. probably not playing piano for thirty minutes a day which i never wanted to do but for some reason had to do for years because i made the mistake of wanting to do the thing my sister was when i was like five and a clueless fucko. and we owned a piano. idk why my mom gave a shit that if we showed any interest in learning we Had to, for 30 min a Day which is an eternity in kid time, and also we couldnt stop. that was a weird thing that i forget about. i forget about 86% of my life and 93% of the first third or two because there is not much worth remembering as you can imagine. i mean, its mostly there in my memory, its just hard to pull up anything unless i have a specific reminder of a certain memory or else just try really hard i guess. i'm just out here, who knows what was going on back then. besides bs

I need some new recipes for dinners but 1: good luck finding shit that's not stupid fancy BS if you're like me and just do super simple pasta+some kind of meat+some kind of flavoring or cheese and have no interest in dirtying six pans and four knives and three cutting boards just so you can make it thru til breakfast kthx, and 2: my head may literally explode from gritting my teeth every time I see the "total cost" recipe blogs list because that is some of the shittiest and most fucking disingenuous bullshit ever. You can't buy one fucking cup of salsa for $0.88, and you damn well know it, you shitwaffle. Like this Monterey chicken skillet recipe I'm looking at thinks the total cost is like 8 bucks. 2 cups of shredded rotisserie chicken is listed for $3.50, 2 cups chicken broth is listed for $0.30, 1/3 cup BBQ sauce is listed for $0.36, etc. I wanna see them go into the store and try to buy a third of a cup of BBQ sauce, I really do lol. If I decide I want to make it, I actually have to buy the whole rotisserie chicken, which is by itself like 6 bucks, a whole bottle of BBQ sauce for $3, a whole carton of chicken broth for $4. I just. Absolutely loathe recipe bloggers who present that kind of broken down price because it conveys this whole smug attitude of "anyone can afford to eat healthy!" because who would balk at spending eight dollars for a family dinner, amirite? Except it's closer to 15-20 dollars by the time all is said and done because normal people have to buy entire food items, not prorated portions thereof. And suddenly, unless you make the same meal several times in a row, your grocery cost is a lot higher than shitty recipe bloggers would lead you to expect. Fuck that, and fuck you who do it.

#StoryTimeWithMy - Me & #HurtBae handle things differently...clearly.

Ok... So I was with him over 3 years at this point. But in recent times, we had had multiple convos about not being together for various reasons...but there was still that lingering love. You know? Where you still speak everyday, still hang out, are still intimate, etc... Still...to the point where one week prior to this "incident" we did a little day trip where we took Teagan out to eat and to Liberty Science Center. You know, regular shit...

So on this day, I spoke with him a couple times throughout the day. I let him know I had made plans in his area later and we agreed to just hang out until my girl got off work. Soooo.... I go.

I get to his house and everything's regular... drinks, music, his friends, their girlfriends...typical weekend night at his place.

Then the bell rings, he goes to open it, and a woman comes in. I don't think anything of it at all...at first. Then I notice all of his friends get weirdly silent (completely out of character for this bunch). The woman is totally comfortable. She goes into the fridge for something, takes a charger out of the wall and heads toward his bedroom. She's out of sight for about a minute and I decide to go follow her.

And there she is...sitting on his bed, phone plugged in the wall, just scrolling through her phone...super comfortable. I do the only thing there is to do... "Oh hi...I'm MyAsia. Who are you? I'm *insert name i dont remember because it didn't matter*. Oh. You're here for *him*? How do you know him...because you clearly KNOW him? I've known him for years." She starts to look worried. She's catching on... (lol, funny now...wasn't funny then)

I go back into the living room. I approach him. I just stare at him. He gives me this look like "Fuck!" but tries to play like he's confused. "What?" he says., I just stare at him...

In that moment, I am trying soooooo hard not to burst into tears because...y'all...she was comfortable there. She wasn't new. She knew where the outlets were in his bedroom. She didn't require an introduction to his friends. She was comfortable enough to go in the fridge.

"Who is she? Why is she here?" He just stares at me with the goofiest "I have fucked up" face. She walks into the living room. It's now awkward af. I. LOSE. IT. I have so many questions and I'm asking them all...in front of everyone...at max volume...without one single fuck to give. Not. One.

His friends start to head to the door. The gf of one his boys stays behind and attempts to get me to relax. Nope. I'm on one. Then something in my head is like "MyAsia, you are making a fool of yourself. You are flipping your shit and he isn't even reacting." He is still in the same spot...looking dumb.

The woman gets her things to leave. I start to leave too. He follows. (I think he thought we would get into something...but no, my issue was never with her.) But in that moment, I interpreted that as him wanting to save her from me. I started swinging. You know when you swing as you talk? Why👊would👊you👊do👊this👊to👊me? Why👊have👊her👊come👊here👊when👊you👊knew👊I'd👊be👊here? He gives me this "I didnt know she was coming" bs...which only pissed me off even more. Now I know she's comfortable just popping up here? Ok.

I start bawling. I am sooo hurt. I felt betrayed. I felt stupid. I had placed him on this pedestal...because in my mind, he would never be "this guy". I attempt to storm out. He stops me. Now he has answers. Now he wants to explain. He wants to tell me that "we broke up already". He wants to tell me "we already decided not to be together". He wants me to believe she just came around in the last couple weeks...this woman who goes in his fridge, knows his friends, comes over unannounced and knows where the outlets are in his bedroom... I. Can. Not. Stop. Crying. I want to...because I feel weak and stupid...but I can't.

I snatch away from him and leave. I can't leave. I have an excruciating headache suddenly. I can't see thru the tears. I was a wreck...smh. I get in the car, drive one block up and park. I call the friend I was suppose to link up with after she got off. I am hysterical. She can't understand me. My phone beeps. There's another call coming in. It's his friend's gf from back at the house. She wants to know where I am. I tell her and click back over. I give a short, prob super inaccurate version of what just happened. At this point, he is Satan to me...so I can only imagine what I said.

Anyway, I tell her where I am and hang up. I am legit hysterical. My head is hurting. I am angry. I am hurt. This woman wasn't new. This woman was comfortable y'all. When he reacted to this whole "incident", he considered her. I saw it. It was too much. I sat in my car just shaking...trying to talk myself out of setting his house on fire. Seriously... The ONLY thing that stopped me was knowing that children lived in the unit above him...the children who stomp around and make so much more on those weekend mornings when he and I just wanted to sleep in. Those loud ass children kept me from making a super irrational decision that night.

I'm startled by a knock on my window. It's his friend's gf. She tells me to unlock the door. She gets in the passenger seat and just sits there, silently. I'm still crying. I can't make it stop. My head is racing. Then the other friend shows up. She gets in the car. We just sit there for a minute. Then my friend who missed the whole thing says "what the hell happened?"... I tell her...and finish with "My head hurts. My stomach hurts. I need a drink."

We all get in her car andride around North Newark looking for a bar. It's dark. It's late. Everything is closed. Then we see this little corner bar that seems to be open. We get out. We go in. There are all Hispanic men over 50 in this bar, y'all. I didn't care. They had liquor...lol I had shots and cocktails with these 2 til the bar was closed. I spilled my little heart out in there...to 2 women who weren't even THAT close to me...but in that moment I appreciated them. They let me vent and talked me down...well kinda... ...Because now, I'm angry AND upset AND still feeling stupid...and I've spent the last hour drinking continuously...

I decide I am going back to his house. They try to talk me out of it...but nah, I'm going back. I call his phone. He answers immediately. I tell him I'm coming back and he needs to be there and alone. I promise you in my head I was going back to that house to hurt him. I considered killing him...in real life. I thought of how I'd do it, how I could get away with it, how it'd make his mom and sister feel, how I'd explain it to Teagan...all that. SMH

We leave the bar and head back to his house. They wont let me go in alone. I ring the bell. He comes to the door. In that moment...something happened to me that I cant and wont ever be able to explain. In that moment, I needed him. So many times before I he had been the ONLY person to see me through bs and tough times. This time was no different. In that moment, I was searching for and anticipating comfort and consolation...from the very person who had just hurt me. SMH Why was I like that?!

I start yelling, crying and carrying on...and he tries to hold me. I'm fighting him...I want him not to touch me and I want him to hold me tighter...at the same... damn...time. Y'all... I was all messed up.

We go inside and he's giving me the same story and I'm so over hearing it. I zone out and I'm just wondering why I'm back at his house...seeking solace in the same man who had upset me in the first place. I got angry. I was back and forth between literally throwing blows and falling into his chest crying asking him why. The whole time my head is KILLING me.

Suddenly it's silent. For a while there's just me doing that "I just finished crying", sniffling thing lol Then he takes my jacket off of me, lays me down in his bed, takes my shoes off and just cuddles up next to me. He says he's sorry and that he never meant to hurt me like this and this isn't how he ever thought this would go. I fell asleep...in the arms of the same mf who I had just thrown jabs at...the same mf I seriously considered killing just hours before. I woke up the next morning and left silently.

I was violently ill for days. I learned then just how real "mind over matter" is. I had literally gotten physically SICK...because of mental and emotional pain. I also learned that you can not ever view someone the same after heartbreak. I learned that anyone is capable of anything and pedestals are for trophies, not people. I learned that everyone is just moments of hurt & anger away from a Snapped episode so I don't judge.

Fast forward to present time...fast forward pass months of personal growth and experience...fast forward pass a bunch of laughs and tough convos between us over the years... This guy is still one of the closest ppl to me. I still love him to death. I currently consider him a friend of mine. I just know I can't ever look at him THAT way again...and that's ok.

That #HurtBae video struck a nerve with me. No one is above being hurt. But when you're in a situation that is emotionally and mentally draining, get the hell out of it!

congratulations im back(??)

Okay so first of all i missed u guys so much because u are my friends even if u dont know it or me and secondly id like to explain myself even tho i dont need to but my anxiety or whatever other insecurity i have forces me to make sure nobody ever misunderstands me EVER

SO im a long time sufferer of mental health issues tm. Anxiety, major D, ocd and recently diagnosed with adhd woo. Anyway so yeah thats fun and idk what to blame but the incredibly high standards i set for myself because i need to ne PERFECT at EVERYTHINg makes it really difficult to live. It happens when i try to study because i need to be the perfect student it happens when i watch tv because i need to be the perfect viewer and it happens when i want to be on tumblr and reblog stuff or watch vlives or music videos because i absolutely must be the perfect fan. Its so hard it drives me nuts because the way my big gay brain deals with the anxiety of not being good enough tm is by shutting tf down and completely avoiding all of the things that i might not be perfect at. Thus i cannot even enjoy my favourite things that make me happy.

This is why ive been mia for however long and why i probably will be again. But atm im feeling okay about not consuming perfectly and im just chilling and looking at memes and pictures of how perfect kim seokjin is. If u made it thru this personal bs props to u i love u. I hope u are all well and i look forward to being present.

If u have any questions about brain lmk hmu i have so much info about my illnesses cause im constantly analysing them cause they are legit my whole life.

P.O.V. Thru and Through

You can know something your whole life it seems, until you are shown otherwise, have your eyes opened by some unforeseen event, while seeing and knowing things you would just soon forget. From understanding an old saying to feeling true heartbreak - a day may come when you get it on a totally different level or see it from a new perspective, and a night might just come that makes your past wounds just little nicks in the matters of the heart and mind.

Three things constantly come to mind in this life - it is all about our p.o.v. (perspective) - where we have been and what we have seen and how we have felt; how we dismiss so much in our days, closing the book on things small to big while in actuality only knowing a chapter out of an endless series of them and the last letting go. Whether it be good or bad, it seems impossible and for some maybe it is?

My mind seems to wander numerous places at once, so I apologize ( yet again ) to anyone who tries to follow any of my posts and the repeated times I go back to the same ole' core things. Of course, I prob don't have 1 follower / reader to even be present to accept my apology yet I still worry how I word this crap. Anyways, I will try to get to this said 'point'. People are often said that they feel sorry for themselves or want attention with their depression, anxiety, matters of the mind bs. I don't want anything but to feel better and redeem myself for my family, mostly and of course a shred of me. In my chameleon-like ranting and whining and countless explanatory bantering, ALL I want is to be understood and to not be looked down on. I in an instant will try to forgive and overlook anyone at anytime and immediately help them to start over for the good. First of all, what an awesome outlook a.k.a. p.o.v. and way to be. Secondly, what a shitty way to be because sometimes you throw yourself under the bus for others, and it will eventually take it's toll on you. I am 'crawling' proof of that. ( Crawling from the bus and just beat down in general ). One step forward, 2 back. Then 1 and 3, 1 and 4, etc. it seems. I believe and know my family will never give up on me and love me and will always see the good in me. I too see some of what they see, but I hold in so as to not worry them or just because I am sick of hearing my words and/or thoughts much over time that when I do voice something, of course it usually comes out all dark and depressing and hopeless all at once. *Days turn into weeks always, but sometimes a minute becomes a month. So on those moments of me finally venting, allowing an exit of whatever is in me I do hate myself and think and feel worthless. At any given time when a person is low, they will usually not have the strength or the optimisticism (?) to fabricate they are all that good stuff rolled into a person as seen through their loved ones' eyes. That family has kept me from letting go of the good stuff, but I still am in a dark room at a dark time in a dark state. Nothing like the present, right? Thank our lucky stars, though there is also nothing like the future. I pray that my family not letting go of me and I not of them will one day come to a close with me letting go of all of this other wordly, devil-riddled horseshit of a past.

what the fuck is growth, Or, not even ironically critiquing my own common app essay

Fanfiction (n.): stories about settings or characters written by the fans of the original work, rather than by the original creator, mostly posted on the Internet People are shocked when I tell them I like fanfiction. Why voluntarily read sexually and violently explicit stories with horrible prose? But despite what people usually think of it, I like fanfiction for its boundless imagination and fearless writing. Essentially, I read fanfiction because it embraces so much of who I am.

(just last year i would have torn this paragraph apart. of course i started with a dictionary definition of fanfiction! look at this boring ass style! the uncritical use of “boundless” and “fearless!” but right now i just pity my poor younger self, so fucking scared of rejection. desperately trying to play up how happy and vital i am. writing a version of myself that someone would like and take to the states because god i hated being in this shitty country.)

Fanfiction writers pour months and even years into writing novel-length fanfics that will never get a publishing deal. I love this passion that doesn't ask for anything in return except the pure joy of writing in itself. Like these writers, I am spontaneous. I find happiness less in tangible results and more in the act itself, whether I am participating in a march for the Sewol ferry accident victims at Gwanghwamun or randomly striking up conversation with strangers at cafes to listen to their stories. Doing things for the sole purpose of doing them makes me present in the moment and makes me feel alive because I focus on what I have in my hands rather than what I may have in the future.

(i still read fanfiction. i still really like reading shit that people care so fucking much about making despite that they won’t make money off of it or use it as, i don’t know, a resume entry to buttress their budding writing careers. it’s stupid and silly and unimportant. but what the fuck am i doing here. tying my love of something ridiculously insignificant to sewol ferry? i remember i thought the families were making a big deal out of an unfortunate incident back then. the sewol ferry sank on my birthday. i didn’t even care after that. i could say i was young, that i didn’t know any better, but the truth is that i was too tired to care and i only gave a shit about myself and my new life in the wondrous magical nostalgic land of the United States of America and leaving the shithole of Korea, South behind. I got caught up in the bright shimmering future so much that i thought the present i had at that moment was a stepping stone i could use to leave my stupid life and my stupid body. I hate this paragraph so much. I hate it because I never really felt alive or present back then. I still find it difficult to be present.)

Another characteristic that draws me to fanfiction is its ability to explore uncomfortable topics. The writers are not afraid to tackle controversial issues like sexuality or violence. I love this limitless dealing with uncomfortable topics. I am attracted to these uncomfortable topics because, through them, I can think for myself. I want to test and stretch the boundaries of what is appropriate and socially acceptable. I strongly object to accepting facts and norms just because they are given. By constantly thinking about topics deemed inappropriate, I can know if the discomfort I feel is a reaction that indicates a healthy morality and conscience or if it is merely a dictation from my environment I have taken for granted. I want to be in charge of what I feel and think and if the discomfort I feel goes against what I believe is right, I want to challenge that.

(the first sentence is so awkward and bad lol. i bet the pomona admissions team really ate that shit up about intellectual diversity and daring minds and fearless reasoning and what not. i’m using critical thinking as a way to prove how strong and individual and independent i am like a good libertarian! but the question this paragraph raises still resonates with me a little. are the things i think and feel and argue mine? do i care too much about what others are thinking and feeling and arguing? why am i so easily swayed by others? would thinking and feeling and arguing as how others do somehow make me more lovable?)

Along with exploring uncomfortable topics, fanfiction invites people to think and share their differences. The fanfiction community is always welcoming to the many different users experimenting with interpreting works in new ways. I want to be just as open to new people and new ideas, especially if they are different from what I think. As an American citizen living in Korea, I learned that what is thought of as inappropriate in Korean culture can be perfectly natural in America, and vice versa. I started to think about these uncomfortable topics because I was intrigued by the differences in thought in the two worlds I was part of. I am coming to learn that there are worlds beyond these two and that boundaries for appropriate and inappropriate are different for each world I contact. I want to connect to these people from different places and see the ways they think and, in turn, the ways I think.

(this is the laziest way to compare myself to fanfiction wow!! i guess i did learn a lot about kinks and sexuality/ies and genders throug ao3 but what the fuck @the assumption that all differences are equal and lateral and conflict from difference can all be resolved through mutual understanding and happy stupid MUN shit! a more accurate message would be: i was really horny and confused growing up and i found an outlet from the repressive sexual culture in fanfiction and read and wrote and masturbated a lot. i thought i was a freak for being so obsessed with sex and my mom told me i was too. i liked fanfiction because i didn’t have to be in the united states to be american. or so i felt. it was so american to write about chance encounters and mcdonalds drive thrus and college parties and sex and i could be american without having to be in america or look american)

Fanfiction, of course, is not the most artful genre of literature. It is written by thirteen year olds who get Bs and Cs in English class. But fanfiction makes up for what it lacks in art with its free spirit and open-mindedness. And though I cannot include fanfiction writers as people who inspired me the most on my college applications, I love fanfiction because it is spontaneous, free, alive, and, consequently, so much like myself.

(i’m not free and i’m not spontaneous and most of the time i don’t feel alive that much. i’m thankful for fanfiction for helping me pass through puberty and letting me masturbate. also i would’ve ended up a hell of a lot more basic than i am right now. yeah. this is a sort of okay clincher i guess but i have no nice ending for this critique because i’m still a mess and i still fap to fanfiction occasionally)
