#FREE MY MAN RICH!!!!!!!

[paper-starz]

I drew Rich from Poppy Playtime!

His design is actually @the-friendliest-freak’s! (Go check em out!)

Oh and yes

I did ship him and Gordon together.

Hell yeah old men kissing.

#my friendly neighborhood #poppy playtime #mfn gordon #poppy playtime rich #i may be cringe but i am free #also #there’s so many similarities between these two #both are old grumpy men with a heart of gold #both are in mascot horror games #both have a LOT of angst #AND ALSO ALSO #RICH IS SOOOOOO UNDERRATED #WHERES MY RICH FANART??? #he’s the only man I trust in that game

Ok. Real question. How many people Actually have believed in Santa? Bc I never did, mostly bc my dad never bothered with the entire pretense, so the whole concept is just. Really fucking strange to me

Putting an actual poll bc I feel like I'm losing my mind a bit thinking about how apparently widespread it is. Like. It's just so... weird? Why is this the thing people have popularized? It makes no sense.

#speculation nation #polls #like ok my dad's an atheist raised by jewish parents so xmas has never really been a religious sort of holiday to me #we celebrate it bc it's fun to give gifts and spend time with family #but that's... it. #all the lore and mythos of xmas is just so weird to me #like baby jesus etc etc but now here comes saint nicholas with the steel chair! (breaking into your house to eat your cookies #and leave presents Only for the rich kids! why only the rich ones? uhmmm Dont worry about it!) #genuinely speaking my dad's worked at ups my whole life so growing up he'd say he (and the rest of his coworkers) were the real santas #said as a joke mostly bc theyre the ones Actually delivering the packages #but i took it to heart. told people at school that my dad was the Real santa. #no one believed me lol which i found quite frustrating. #but yeah i have never once in my entire life believed in Santa #and im content with that. it seems like such a stupid thing i will be honest. #'what about the magic of christmas' what about the poor kids who dont get gifts & feel abandoned by this all-powerful man? #in fact why do we Want kids to not think it's their parents giving gifts? they cant thank the right people if we trick them. #it's a convoluted setup that makes absolutely 0 sense to me #trust me christmas had more than enough 'magic' for me as a kid just bc of all the cool lights and all the free gifts #dont need some mythological man who can travel the globe in one night and is a professional in B&E #makes no sense for Real. #there was a time with my ex step siblings where me n my sister were told not to spoil the fun for them #so i had to pretend like santa existed as they opened presents marked from him #and even back then i was just thinking 'this is So Dumb' #this is an anti santa zone i guess. me and myself hate the popularized version of this strange strange belief system.

made a timeline for monk tv for the folks cause it makes no sense sometimes.

[more in the tags]

[update: stottlemeyer's timeline found here]

#tried my best #math really churned itself out here #fic writing resources ahoy #feel free to use <3 #monk 2002 #monk 2002 timeline #this only counts adrian's age #i got tired of plotting a fic and going “errr wait when does this happen and does this thing im mentioning fit with this period of time???” #esp now that im going crazy about pre-series monk ideas #monk wiki says stottlemeyer is 17 YEARS OLDER THAN MONK #im just??? wot??? #how can... that makes no sense. how can stottlemeyer be 81 and the head of security for some rich ass guy in mr. monk's last case? it dont #add up at all. ive always headcanoned that stottlemeyer is like 6-9 years older than monk #what were the writers thinking these ages are wacky #trudy is 4 years younger than monk too. #if we follow how she died when she was 34 #and theyd been married for 7 years... that makes her 27 but like. they met in uni. what age were they then??? #monk def had to be 23-24 when he met trudy. which makes her 20 :“) #its whack man. making sense of this makes my head hurt #anyway im here to stop all that suffering #here we go #A BETTER TIMELINE #ill update with stottlemeyer's own age timeline soon :>

Why didn't anybody tell me that, upon the stroke of midnight on my 30th birthday, I would suddenly be struck with the irresistible compulsion to completely refurnish my bedroom???

#k.e.w.k. overshares #*turns 30* ...MY FURNATURE CAN NO LONGER BE PLASTIC #I CRAVE THE FEEL OF WOOD AND STEEL #(and also scented candles... SO MANY fucking scented candles...) #so yeah if anybody has been wondering where I've been for the last week and a half (?) the answer is: #obsessively refreshing the 'free stuff' page of craigslist #scouring thrift stores and garage sales #and prowling the streets of local neighborhoods in hopes of snatching up spring cleaning freebies #PSA: It is the time of year that rich people yeet perfectly good shit on the street #keep them peepers peeled and GO GET YOU SOME SCRATCH N DENT TREASURES FAM YOU (AND ME) DESERVE IT 👀✨ #I already got a book shelf some little knicknack shelves to go on top of the book shelf two cube shelf things and some shoe racks #for like $25 + cost of gas ✌ UwU 🏆 #and now im off to hunt down a dresser because I am an Adulty Adult Man possessed 🤷‍♂️ #Edit to my own unpublished draft: DRESSER AQUIRED (SHES DIRTY AND COVERED IN STICKERS BUT SHES MINE AND SHES BEAUTIFUL QWQ ✨)

riddick vs your muse in a heated exchange ... just as an eclipse throws black over their world

#then he says something cringe but free w his rich timber like “darkness. my old friend.” #<- man traumatized by the dark but he can see in it now #in honor of im 100% in the path of today's eclipse 8) gonna be siiiiick #a smokescreen. 「 ooc 」 #timbre* lmao

40 minutes into this 7 hour audiobook, and I think I have the motive, means, and opportunity for a murder that hasn't happened yet. which... is either really sad because i'm never right about this stuff and like to guess, or really great because there's a plot twist coming and that'll be fun

unfortunately, i think the twist is the answer i have

#complaining about audiobooks again #woodland creatures murder mystery has been fun but the mystery has been getting uh #ok the first one was great and i didn't see the twist coming #the second gave you one suspect and then put the nails in the coffin one by one until like there was no way it was anyone else #the third one appears to be setting up a plot twist that might be very clever but i'm just nuts enough to see coming #idk #spoilers for the shady hollow series so stop reading if you're planning to read spoiler free #but the book is called mirror lake. mirror #the man is acting strange and his rich mother died and his wife says he's not really her husband and that her husband's dead #well. its his twin brother right? #it's got to be his twin brother and we're going to dance around that for 6 more hours aren't we? #if it's not his twin brother i'll eat my hat idk anymore

[soldier-poet-king]

Im still so upset abt my family pulling a Charlotte Lucas on me this weekend but like. It's fine. I am going to get So Buff so I don't have to hate having a soft "feminine" body and also so I'm strong enough to bear the weight of their Ongoing Disappointment (TM) about p much every single one of my life choices and also maybe my very existence

#franposting #im somehow so upset abt that #but also so happy bc im working out again and the weather is nice and i have recipes to make and fresh veg in the fridge #also im reading the gentleman's guide to vice and virtue as a completely self indulgent comfort read #and im just 🥺 #what if u were in love with ur best friend in the 1700s #and u were both boys #but also ur a little depressed and a little bit an alcoholic. and ur dad is a shitbag. #and also ur being chased by highwaymen on the grand tour of the continent. for funsies #literally. in love with ur best friend is such a good trope. making it sad queer 18th century is just. delicious #this shit HURTS and I'm actively crying #because all the bits with his dad are like. YEAH ME TOO. this is one of THE biggest sources of nightmares for me #i can never be free or honest!!! i simply make up excuses abt being single forever and ever #also bk2 is abt felicity and i love her. queen. truly. just wants to get a mans education and escape finishing school. icon #but yeah. this was supposed to be fun haha lil fluff romance with no stakes ol #just a distraction from my woes. and now im like. oh #oh shit we be in it now #dare i say..... sebastian flyte vibes of it all.... #softhearted fop alcoholic in love w ur best friend. rich brit. parent issues. really just need to love and be loved

i love when people complain about their taxes going towards stuff that helps people. like, ive seen so many people (my father included) complain about how the government paying for transport, so that the ppl traveling dont have to pay anything is 'a waste of money'. but i dont see people complaining when the government raises their own salaries🤨

#this is the national govt vs aragon govt but whatever my point still stands #like. youd rather pay for... idk. a rich man buying himself a second t*sla or whatever #than pay for a student being able to travel to uni for free? like. im sorry??????? #z xarre

You know, I think if I was obscenely wealthy what I'd do is commission artists to make a piece of their own choosing and then give it away to some poor broke sod for free/open up a commission slot where I paid but someone that normally couldn't afford it got the commission

Basically, my house would fill up at some point, you know... and I gotta pace myself, so I'd really have to say sometimes "your art is great... but I don't think it's what I personally am looking for in my house specifically"

So instead I could make it so that people who can't normally afford art could get a piece (I've been there plenty)

If I had the money to do it, it would be a win win win. An artist would get money and get to create, I'd get to see a picture of their work, and someone who didn't have the money to buy art would get art which is very important to me

#with my woodworking and stuff I'm always kinda thinking in the back of my head if I can't find ways where if I ever start selling #I can make it so that totally broke fucks can afford it; cause I get being there #payment plan... something... I don't know #it's just; no offense if you've got dosh; but I kinda don't want my art to go to the rich #I'd kinda rather have it go to people who can't pay me for it but really like it... that's my ideal person to create for #part of why I have a rule that if I do manage to teach out of my basement I'm gonna be like #'now; if you ask me to make that for you; I'll have to charge you cause that's a lot of time' #'but if you want me to teach you how to make that yourself I'll do that for free' #cause man... I just wish I had someone teaching me all the things I want to learn; and I ain't got money to hire a tutor for it all #so like... gladly accept tips if people wanted to give them; I'll never be too proud to take money #but I'm not fucking charging to teach #not that people are wrong to do that #it's just... for me; it's important; it's personal; it's making sure money doesn't stop someone from learning from me #(if I ever have anything worth teaching) #cause fuck do I wish I'd ran in to someone like that

Iron Man (1968) #104

#I love the rapid mood change here #from ‘You’re rich- You’ve got a woman who loves you- and you love her!’ #‘Let Midas keep Stark International! You’re free- for the first time in your life!’ #to ‘I can’t stop thinking about Midas taking away my factory! It… seems like my armor is… all I have left!’ #it reminds me of some of the mood swings he’s had about his Iron Man and Tony Stark identities #also intrigued by that Tony refers to losing the company he inherited his father as him being free for the very first time #but he also says he hasn’t been back to Stark House since they died #and that the house is ‘Cold though- uncared for since my parents died! A bit like… me!’ #in the one flashback we’ve seen of Howard Stark so far he sent his son to boarding school because he was dating the daughter of a competitor #so prioritizing reputation/the company- and he also insulted his son in the process #this is actually the first time that Maria Stark has been named #it’s very believable that Tony goes from believing that love is the most important thing to thinking that his armor is all he has #he’s so dedicated to running away from good things #the declaration ‘I can’t live only for love!’ is so funny #he’s literally still rich #but apparently he lacks proper purpose without Stark International #marvel #tony stark #whitney frost #my posts #comic panels

Working with the elderly means every Sunday I work i'm either going to church or I'm setting someone up in front of a streamed sermon with the volume turned up so high I can hear it clear across the house. Either way I'm being preached to 😶

#xyz #I'm borderline pagan but 100% athiest if anyones curious fjsjdje #if half my clients knew i was wildly queer i dont think theyd be very nice about it ngl #the ones who do know are younger and have better eye sight #two of em are an old lesbian couple so like duh theyre gonna clock me #the other is an old hippie type but like the rich kind #still v free love tho #my 90+ clients tho?? if i drop my voice they tell me how good of a man i am #right up until their nurse or kids or someone outs me 🙄

i wanna do succession handcanons (bc ofc i do) but i also realized that i have never and will never get anywhere close to wealth to even guess the way rich ppl dress or keep up their appearances. would they all regularly get manicures

#succ #danbles #i would love to make this one a bit more collaborative since i feel like i dont understand succession as well as my usual hypfixes #too serious + i dont have a wealth consultant + im not at s3 yet #but i wouldve def made tom the most likely to get a manicure out of everyone #idk i dunno how rich ppl work so feel free to chime in #but he makes me think of those guys that come into a salon and dont know what to expect #so when i ask them if they want their nails polished they always think im joking (it’s not 2007 anymore guys 😭) #and then i explain we have clear polish if they’re apprehensive abt colors #and that always gets their attention bc theyre like hmmm… that Would be shiny #and im like hell yeah youre already here might as well treat yourself! #anyway i think thats what tom’s first salon experience was like and now he always goes clear polish #sorry this turned into like a tom self-insert concept is it so bad to wanna hold his hand 😒 #as for greg… i can see them going to a salon together (forced by tom) and tom giving him this exact rundown ive just given you #and greg would ofc laugh in that uncomfortable way that he does bc he thinks tom is making a jab at his masculinity #and yk he’s younger and more Hip with the kids but he doesn’t know tom’s intentions by asking #which tbf are muddied as hell #bc yes it’s a jab but also grow up man it’s 2022 guys get their nails done all the time #it’d be in that way where tom does say AND mean it as a jest but get fully offended when greg interprets it as such #so i guess what im saying is that up-to-date greg might also have clear polish?? #but not like tom’s bc greg’s is already chipping due to his fidgeting + forgetting they were even polished #im gonna go out on a limb and say kendall roman and maybe connor dont care #they prob get manis (unlike tom they wouldnt go to a salon they’d have their own personal nail techs) but not polish #bc you can also keep your nails shiny without polish by buffing them #ohhh my god but tom would still choose the polish. he would still choose. wait hold on i need a second #and greg would ask why he has to get them painted like can’t he just get them buffed instead #like theyre always chipping and it ends up just looking worse #and tom is like wth man i thought we were in this together. not my fault you can’t take care of your hands. #jfc that was a lot of tags ​i hope you guys enjoyed getting a glimpse of my handcanon-making process

tryna plan my birthday dinner and just realized i can't afford it 😔😔

#ik i'm inviting everyone over but what if i made them pay for their food absjsks #i could make empanadas instead and that'd be way cheaper and i'd have enough for everyone #but that also means i'd have to spend my birthday making empanadas and the whole point of ordering food was not having to do work #also i really wanted thai food :/ #maybe i can afford it if i get the job i interviewed for this week #but def not at the moment #also mini rant since i'm on the topic of finances but man is it depressing to be here working two jobs to pay for groceries #meanwhile my roommate is on a full scholarship w/ free meal plan and rich parents and she eats the food i make or uses my ingredients #like she v def is not in the wrong bc i told her she could but it is depressing to know that i'm struggling to pay for college and survival #while she gets to be blissfully unaware of how much she has in her savings and bills are paid for her #she literally said that the other day she was like #''i don't know how much i have in my college savings. i just ask my mom to withdraw from it whenever a bill comes'' #(she has a full ride but she's out of state so there's like a fee or smth she has to pay but it's still essentially a full ride) #and i just sat there flabbergasted bc i know exactly how much i have in my college savings. $417.37. #and every penny will be gone by next sem to pay for those classes. and my 529 is v low bc of the stock market being bad rn #so i'm trying to avoid going into it until the stock market's up again but i had to dip into it anyway bc of my required arts class #aaaaaanyway the thought of her not even knowing what she has bc she doesn't have to worry abt it cause she's rich is so..... yeah 😔😔 #and then i turn around and like three of my friends get a monthly allowance from their parents meanwhile i treat them to boba #i can't ask my parents for financial help cause they're in a really bad spot right now #my brother called me the other day and said he was having waffles for dinner cause they didn't have any food #so like....... i think my friends should pay for my laundry #tea talks #tea vents
