and then somehow people act like jess showing up seasons later to "wake up" rory for taking a break from school was so "inspiring" and "see how he knows her better than anyone else!!" .... idk how to break it to y'all but rory dropping out wasn't ooc when like... we all get burnt out even as the best student and i just find it comical that people praise jess for somehow "waking her up". waking her up from what?? college is draining and we're all human. grow up.
literally one of my most adamant and somehow controversial gg opinions is that rory dropping out is not a character flaw, it's just a thing she went through and a more difficult time for her. you're so right that it's not ooc like we see her all the way back in season one freaking out over getting a bad grade on one test, she has always been this girl.
it's so annoying that jess gets treated like a saviour for that scene like was it a contributing factor to her going back to yale? sure, but she would've done it without him too. (by contrast I think an actual "he really knows her" moment is when logan is like "I know you and I know you're hardworking and love school, so I'm just going to let you rediscover that yourself")

hi! i was wondering if you could share the overlay and/or explain how you made the first gif in the last set you posted? thank you very much in advance <3
Hi anon! I'd be happy to share how I created the ripped paper effect in this gifset !
You’ll need a basic knowledge of gifmaking and photoshop, and I’ll put the rest of this under the cut.
1) Creating your gifs
So to start off you're going to create your gifs in separate canvases. I work in timeline mode and I add my sharpening and colouring, and I put both gifs in groups (explained here).
Here are my gifs on separate canvases. For reference, I've called the one on the left "grocery store" and the one on the right "parents".
You'll then want to copy and paste your gif groups onto the same canvas. This is what my canvas and layers panel looks like once that's done. From here, you're ready to start the ripped paper effect.
2) Ripped paper overlay
For this step, you want to obtain your ripped paper overlay. You can find various ripped paper textures/overlays using google, but I used these overlays by @peytonsawyers !
You open up the overlay you want to use, and either copy and paste or just drag it onto your gif canvas. You can then resize and rotate the texture and orient it where you want.
I then drag the ripped paper layer so that it's placed between my two gif groups. I also hid the top group just so that I can see the overlay, but this is only temporary. Your canvas and layers panel should now look like this:
2.5) Filling in the overlay
So as you can see we have an issue because the ripped paper doesn't cover the entire area where we want our top gif to show. To fix this, I just use a white brush at 100% hardness and paint in the area that needs to be covered, making sure the ripped paper layer is selected (this doesn't have to be perfect, just make sure that the entire area is filled.
Now this is what it should look like:
3) Masking the top gif
Use the command (or ctrl) key and click on the thumbnail in the layers panel for your ripped paper layer (the square highlighted in white in that last screenshot). You should get a marching ants selection around the ripped paper like so:
Now reveal your top gif group (by clicking on the eye icon), and make sure you have the group selected in the layers panel. You should still see the selection around where your ripped paper is, like so:
Now go to the bottom of your layers panel and click on the little mask icon:
And now you should get a mask on your top group in the shape of the ripped paper, and you should be able to see both gifs simultaneously on the canvas:
If the black and white areas on your layer mask are flipped after you click on the mask icon, just click on the layer mask and use the command + i (ctrl + i) keys to switch it back so that you can see both your gifs.
4) Final touches
Now if you're happy with the result so far, you can absolutely stop here. However, I wanted to show the uneven rip (like how when you rip a piece of paper you can see some white bits on the edges).
To do this, select your move tool (shortcut: click the v key on your keyboard) and making sure your ripped paper layer (NOT the mask) is selected, use your arrow keys to move it slightly until it shows between the two gifs.
It currently looks a little too clean for my liking, so I like to move it slightly up/down as well so that it looks more uneven and natural. If your overlay is too small, just use the transform function (command + t or ctrl + t) to resize it so that it fills the canvas. This is what mine looks like after I mess around with it:
And you're done! If you want to adjust any colouring, just go into the gif group and you can edit the layers from there.
Hope this helps anon! Let me know if you have any questions!
