#or these pictures would be really bad
Text
Ok, so, my magazine arrived today. It's a lot smaller than I thought it would be, though I actually should have expected it, but it's only 21 centimeters tall.
There are pages on a few of the Milan squad, but it's all pretty interesting. I got it originally for this page:
If you read the questions, some of his answers are pretty funny. Apparently, he prefers showers, doesn't know how to do house chores, his favorite sport is Tennis (?), and his favorite song is "Kiss" by Prince. Also, those shorts...
Anyways, there are more pages on Billy, Gullit, Van Basten, Rijkard, Tassoti, Marco Simone, and some more. There is a little section for fan arts made by kids:
Fanart of Evani, Gullit, Maldini and Donadoni. The children captured Paolo's Soul glaring eyes well. Anyway, if you want to see specific pages like Gullits page or Van bastens just lmk
#paolo maldini#maldini#rare pics#still havent read through it yet#but i will soon#of course i read Paolos part#also thankgod i have a scanner#or these pictures would be really bad

Maybe it's a 'study finds water is wet' type of thought, but
considering it's an action movie whose overall plot is "immortal warriors Fuck Shit Up™️", I think it's significant that in The Old Guard the thing that makes Copley pull red strings through his Murder Conspiracy Board and say "[Merrick] doesn't care what [Andy]'s done with [her immortality]" is the people they save, not the ones they kill
Most of the Conspiracy Board is him circling random newspaper headlines and faces on old photographs to (more or less realistically) follow the immortals' treck through the world and big historical events. Which is, in-canon, not much different than putting portraits from different centuries next to a picture of Keanu Reeves and saying "they look the same, clearly Reeves is an immortal!"
But then there are the connections. A little girl holding Joe's hand in WW1 becoming the youngest (and first) woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize for Medicine (suck it, Kozak). Or the grandchild of a family that Andy saved from [something] helping people escape from the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia.
They are warriors. They have fought and been in the midst of countless wars, major or minor, throughout history. They must have killed as many people as they saved... and yet.
It's not them taking out a random warlord or dictator or rabidly hateful politician that has tangible repercussions in history. It's the children and families they get out of war zones, save from accidents, protect from natural disasters. People to whom they give a second chance at life, and grow to change the world (or even just their own world), like a mysterious stranger once changed theirs just by holding out a hand or patching a wound.
I don't know I just think it's particularly neat
#my ponderings#the old guard#I know we all love to play the 'if you could go back in time and kill One Person who would it be' game#but I think a movie that makes it EXTREMELY SATISFYING to see the Bad Guys die -#- having 'actually the best and greatest changes happen when people help each other' as its underlying message...#it means something#I also think it connects to Andy feeling like nothing she does changes anything at the start of the movie#for 80% of her life you could Solve A Problem by Taking Out The Guy Causing The Problem#especially in battle! you kill the general and you win. if you win the Problem Is Solved#but then everything becomes More Complex. the Problems™️ are globalized and/or systemic.#and Winning a Battle means just killing people. it doesn't Stop The Problem (nor really end a war)#so it feels useless#and even when they save people... they can’t stay in people's lives for long because immortality#which means they can never know what happens to the people they save#they don't (and can't) have the full picture

I just impulsively filled out an adoption application for the most BEAUTIFUL tortoiseshell siamese, aptly named Zelda because the main marking on her forehead resembles a sword, and I’m really hoping I get to take her home 😭😭😭
#I explained that I’ll be moving to Texas within the next month and would love to bring her home once I get down there#she’s in Arizona so I offered to pay her adoption fee up front to hold her until I can come get her too#I just really hope they approve me for her adoption process so I can give her a loving home 🥺#I want that sweet baby SO fucking BAD 😭 every picture I see them post of her makes me fall in love with her even more ugh I need her lol

I know it was a tense and dramatic moment and all that, but I think they lost the opportunity to show Crosshair, all stern and awkward coming out of the cargo, with Batcher trotting next to him, tongue lolling out and everything.
#it would really have made the perfect picture#tbb s3 spoilers#tbb spoilers#the bad batch#tbb crosshair#tbb batcher#sunset talks

Oh, your love is sunlight
Happy (late) Valentine's Day (version without text ↓ +description in tags)
#east blue asylum wing au#zosan#zoro x sanji#zs#first off if its bad quality - it's a huge canvas and it's more pixelated if i try to export the picture than if I screenshot so... :/#I sometimes like assigning songs to different dynamics and or characters I play around with and I've been recently listening to#a lot of Hozier again and I'd like to think that Sunlight is how Zoro sees Sanji - he is Icarus flying to the sun and he is willing to get#burned if only to reach the sunlight - it's a deathtrap... because of course it is... all attachments are but Sanji's love is the death tra#that he welcomes like a moth to a flame because even Icarus felt the bliss and freedom before his wax melted#I haven't depicted it here but Sanji's Hozier song for Zoro would probably be NFWMB because in his eyes Zoro is this untouchable force#that would watch the world go up in flames and when the time Sanji wouldn't mind being a tree just to fuel his fire (im well aware how#cheesy that sounds just bare with me... or better yet listen to the song its really good trust me ok?)#the world starts and ends with him and where they lay#and their shared Hozier song is Francesca because if anything in this au zosan are two lovers stuck in Dante's inferno and sprinting back i#only for the chance to get back to their lover and if that meant going back into hell to look for each other then so be it#there's a part of the song that goes “My life was a storm / Since I was born / How could I fear any hurricane?” which is pretty fitting imo#op#fan art#my art

visiting the hometown
(want everyone to know this edit came to me in a dream and i changed the lore just to do it)
#in the dream i was like editing it but i was also there? it was weird. it started as a dream about lawson in a zombie apocalypse#ok important tags first so i can write an essay#ts4#ts4 render#ts4 edit#the sims 4#beckett#lawson#blood sports#but yeah if you haven't been here before beckett and lawson never knew each other as kids#if they did it would be a butterfly effect and mess w a bunch of other plot details. so i decided to work around it#also if ur new they've had a friends with benefits thing going on for a long time but lawson is in love with him. beck doesn't know#originally beckett was put in foster care as a baby bc of neglect and was bounced around foster homes for years#he was a troubled child always getting in fights a kleptomaniac undiagnosed autism etc etc foster families tried and just didn't want him#then when he was around 12 a very nice old lady named cora got him and they ended up forming a great bond they loved each other#she was going to adopt him then when beckett was around 15 or 16 his birth mother reentered the picture and wanted him back#it started a really nasty legal battle and cora died. we can't say for sure it was the stress of this fight but beckett certainly thinks so#anyway he did go back with his birth mother and things got really bad for him. he dropped out of school started doing worse crimes and so o#but none of that is what even changed#now LAWSON is also from west virigina like beckett. it's a small town lawson was new he had no friends#he was a very clingy possessive child who cried and threw tantrums so much#he met beckett and the rest is history. beckett didn't really mind how lawson acted he didn't really find him annoying like everyone elsedi#besides he didn't have friends either#lawson has wealthy parents they were welcoming to beckett at first if a little apprehensive. then he stole something from their house#and lawson wasn't allowed to hang out with him anymore. but he still did in secret. they still have no idea that beckett's even still aroun#or just how involved lawson is with him and his. activities 😬 they just think he's their good little college boy#in the original beckett moved to Not Gotham City when his mother got him back but in this version lawson is going to college there#and beckett's been distant from him for a while things are awful for him and lawson says hey. what if you gave the city a try. and he did#so really you could say the events of blood sports are all lawson's fault the end

So, in an attempt at calming myself down I ended up drawing these two pictures
and now I'm considering taking them with me to the concert tomorrow, but I'm not sure if I really should?
I don't think I'll get the chance to give them to Jere and Häärijä and I don't know if they would even want to have them lmao
#käärijä#they are a bit messy looking but still turned out better than i thought they would#considering that i was close to a panic attack while drawing them (especially during chelseas picture lmao)#it kinda helped me calm down but not much lol#i originally only wanted to draw chelsea#because drawing animals is a lot easier for me than drawing people#but then i got struck by some weird burst of motivation and i ended up drawing jere too haha#but yeah i really don't know if i should take them with me or not...#they are rather small (half a A4 page each) so they don't take up much space but hm idk#(also excuse the shitty photo my phones camera is bad lmao)

and what if i started 'dean is too nice to sam' truthing ?
#well. publicly. bc i already am truthing that sdjkfjd#LISTEN. this show was really really bad at portraying actual sibling dynamics dfkdgk like half their fights would not be that deep irl#like oh you tried to kill me? ok well here's a funny picture of dog and also that's you ok lets go get food#dean as the eldest sibling should've told sam 'i'm right bc i'm the oldest do what i say' like. alllll the time#bc he's right and he's the oldest :) and sam just has to accept that he will ALWAYS be the baby even at 39 yrs old#esp dean being a parentified older sibling like. sam is simultaneously his annoying lil brother AND his pseduo-child#even if sam doesn't want to acknowledge that dean was his main most stable parental figure growing up it doesn't change the fact that#for dean that's what sam is. and so oscillating between the two roles of older brother and parent makes for a complicated dynamic#where you'll like. die for them. but also tease them mercilessly and call them a lil freak and weirdo#(but if anyone else did that you'd punch them out)#but yea. canon dean. too nice.#should've teased him more and gotten into more play fights + actual fights that end w/ them laughing + getting slushies at the gas 'n' sip#siblings siblings#vic.txt

Before I go to sleep I leave you all with this piece of advice: sometimes you don't actually have to answer big political questions, sometimes you can just say "I am not smart enough to know that, I just know the small things I do to help." Like you can often times completely avoid making a fool of yourself if you just say you don't know.
#simon says#to explain here and not in a reblog:#sometimes when you try to explain big picture solutions you're gonna sound dumb#you might not have done enough research#you might not have a rebuttal to a counter argument#you might not be articulate enough to explain why you think this#sometimes you gotta take a step back and give the simple solution. the one man solution#you do what you can to fight against the problem#you talk to people to help spread awareness and how to fight the bad problem#and you vote and invite others to vote for bigger steps towards solving the problem#like you can talk about theory and how you believe we need to do a huge drastic thing to solve and issue#but people will disagree and argue til you're blue in the face#they'll poke and prod until you mess up or lose your temper and use it against you#and you'll feel dumb and they'll learn nothing#sometimes the best thing to do is step away from the big picture and just say 'idk what the solution is I just know the things I can do“#sometimes you gotta admit you're not a scientist/expert and you can't answer that#i used this while talking with my Dad tonight#he brought up our climate crisis and space travel as a possible solution#and I said I think that's just addressing the symptom and not the cause and we need to care for our Earth now#and he asked me what solutions I think would fix it#and knowing my incredibly smart Dad who is articulate and ready to throw rebuttles at a moments notice to play devils advocate#and my past experience in struggling in this topic with him before#i just told him I didn't know. all i knew is the little things I can and do do to help#and that hopefully by spreading the word and habits and encouraging others to vote for those bigger solutions I could help make a change#but all I really could do is the little things I have control over#and the topic became much less stressful about the little things we have control over#like planting native plants and recycling and adopting habits that are healthier to our planet#which was 100% more preferable to if I tried to give a big solution. because I would reveal i didn't have all the knowledge needed to argue#and my articulation would make me sound like a stupid kid who only thinks they know what's best#so yeah I basically suggest that if you dont wanna feel like shit after debating someone just step away from the big picture for a moment

Here's Prehnite the Gemwing!
Gemwings belong to the wonderful @snaill-dragon
I loved designing her, although I did struggle with the legs a lot and I couldn't draw them like they should be.
If you have time, look up the wikipedia image for Prehnite, it's such a pretty stone.
#I really like how this looks!#maybe the wings could be a little bit paler like that picture#but besides that and the legs it came out fine#She got hit with the Cinnamon outer ear curse#also hell yeah TUSKSSSSS#I have no idea how to draw them from the front#I'll learn#man fan tribes are so cool but I don't think I would be good at designing them any different from the original tribes#maybe someday#wings of fire#wof#gemwings#art#cinnamon's doodles#also I'm gonna try to put image discriptions from now on#they might be kinda bad but I'll try to write them to the best of my ability

ya know, whenever tim does finally meet lucy's parents i sincerely hope that like the gentleman he is he insists that he cooks for and host them all so i can witness him getting increasingly more upset with the way they're berating their daughter, to the point where he just can't take it anymore and practically throws their asses out, because like hell you're gonna talk to her that way, not in my house!!
#*carly catalogs#can't help but picture him yelling out abruptly like 'ENOUGH!' standing up and tossing his napkin down#ordering them to leave if they don't have anything nice to say to they're only daughter#and giving a lil speech about how remarkable she is and how they should be more than proud to have a daughter like her#i'd like to think that lucy wouldn't be too upset about it either cause like.....#i don't think she's ever felt brave enough to really stick up for herself against her own parents#and we all know none of her past boyfriends would ever have the gall to say something to them either#tim would feel so bad lik 'i'm sorry but i couldn't listen to them talk to you like that' nd 'no thanks for standing up to them for me' 🥺💕#the rookie#tim bradford#lucy chen#chenford#otp: you know me so well

Semi-continuation of this post.
I wish to discuss these scenes:
First scene: Robin and Nancy are about to escape Penhurst, and Robin rambles fact that it took her longer than most to learn to walk. Nancy is busy observing their situation and determining the best way to go.
Second scene: They had just made it to the car when Nancy says, "You really are a weird runner" in humor.
Third: A day or so later, they are in the Upside Down, and Robin has wandered ahead a bit. Cue Nancy bringing up this tidbit about Robin, again.
You may be asking why this matters. I'll tell you why. It's an example of Nancy listening. They were in middle of a stressful situation, and Nancy was also focused on planning, when Robin said that. Nancy didn't even acknowledge the words in the midst of it. One would assume she wasn't paying attention or was drowning out Robins rambles if they were annoying her. Instead, she immediately referenced it as soon as they were safe. It was an active sign that she had both heard and interalized what Robin was saying.
Now, it's one thing to respond to something right after the fact, and another entirely to remember much later. Many people can be good at pretending to pay attention when someone is talking too much. That doesn't mean that they actually take in the information you provide them. Nancy remembered.
I think I can say with full certainty that no matter how you interpreted Ronance's interactions in season 4, Nancy was listening the entire time. Not just allowing Robin to speak, but paying attention. Any irritation was never about how much she was speaking, only from the accidental insults being sent her way in the beginning.
Anyone who has a tendency to ramble or is autistic probably knows how valuable and somewhat rare it can be to find someone who is not only willing to let you speak about whatever, but actually listens to you. It's more precious than words can say. Especially if they don't already have a shared interest in the topic.
#it also makes me wonder about what Barb was like#idk i can just picture he being the kind of person to get very passionate about certain topics#and nancy would just listen and enjoy all this new knowledge and seeing the girl so excited#this is also about how people interpret Nancy#she didn't appear to be paying attention in the first scene but guess what anyone who thought that was wrong!#don't assume she's annoyed or whatever just because#the girl is just kind of bad at showing interest or care sometimes#but she really is a caring and kind person#nancy wheeler#robin buckley#ronance#autistic robin buckley#stranger things

#i walked into a situation today where my mom was effectively already dead. effectively bc her body was and is still alive. still breathing#painful groaning purrs. but her mind was gone yesterday. my dad said he showed her a picture of the mountains i took that day and told her#i loved her and she smiled. thats what he said. maybe he was just being nice. or maybe thats the last time she thought of me. i dunno. but#the human body is an incredible thing. shes got a heart still powering a broken body. too full of tumors to function anymore. stomach#streched like a pregnant mother. it happed really fast and now its happening very slow#im somehow probably better off than the rest of them. i only got here for the aftermath of a downslide. my daily life will b least effected#i only really saw her twice a year living so far away and she didnt text much. didnt call often. so life wont change much ill just kno shes#not there. which is sad. but theres nothing to b done abt it. life goes on. it hasnt been all bad tho. its nice to talk to my family abt her#how incredible she was. bc she was. wish her mom wasnt here tho. she doesn't deserve to b here. my mom wouldnt want her here. she didnt want#her here. but anyway. i wish her body would just let her go now. so we can sleep. so this can be over. so she can rest#but even like this shes stubborn and resilient. they say it could go on for days but i hope not. may the universe let her rest shes gotta b#so tired after 10 years of this. but i have no regrets. she knew how i felt abt her. and i dont think she had regrets either. she did so#much up to the very end. went out on a high note without the burdon of knowing it was coming#i dunno. its just such a strange experience to watch the empty shell of your mother sleeping like a gurgling baby#unrelated
