I love to hear what people say about Youtube Drama* but it's SO tacky when it gets so offbase that the posts people make start to be about completely off topic infighting within the Watcher fanbase

#but god it IS fun to read about this kind of thing #asterisk on the drama bc this is not like a Scandal per se #this was a business decision made On Purpose #it's not like when sniperwolf stalked a guy and posted a pic of his home to her fans #or when the guy from tryguys fucked one of his employees Who He Himself Hired while also monetizing his wife and kids on the channel #this is different bc it's like. on purpose. #I DIGRESS.... #you guys should see some of it in the watcher tag it's crazy. people are pointing at randos just bc they're already annoyed #i'll give you the clifnotes version which is that i got to see one where somebody has decided that the Steven Hate is actually ppl #revealing that they simply have just been racist at him the whole time. fwiw the steven roasting is bc he's an out of touch Tesla Boy #and bc he brought a homophobic evangelical pastor on the channel #and cockily admitted to being friends w people who are homophobic and racist... his own words #like he has verbally admitted to maintaining friendships with racists so i don't think people are really thinking this one through #these were new to me I was down to roast him for being rich and boring alone #also this reasoning kind of falls apart bc Ryan is literally Right There and people love Ryan #sergle.txt

Junior Year might actually be the scariest D20 season my fight-or-flight instincts were INSTANTLY activated the second Brennan said the word "MCAT" because that's the name of the actual real-life American medical school admissions exam and hearing that with absolutely no warning did not mix well with my "grew up with parents who view getting into medical school by 22 as the bare minimum of academic achievement" brain

#and here i was thinking i would be safe this season because 'i did pretty well in high school' #'i totally don't have any unprocessed emotions about academics' #i just know brennan named the mcat after a real test on purpose and i'm gonna fight him in a denny's parking lot over it #don't even get me started on gorgug's conversation with porter that was way too real #being so confident about a decision you've made for yourself until an authority figure shuts you down #and you can't stand up for yourself even though you know it's the right thing for you #nope get out of my walls i'm in this photo and i don't like it #fantasy high #fantasy high junior year #fhjy #dimension 20 #d20 #dimension 20 fantasy high

HER RIGHT ARM IS LITERALLT ON HIS HEART IT’S ACTUALLY SICK. NOT A BIT OF AIR BETWEEN THEM

#it’s the same hand he missed by a hair btw. her right one #loz #totk #zelink #i’ve been cornplating the hell out of the falling sequence in totk #literally looking up totk ending 60fps 4k on youtube and playing it at 0.25 speed #because nintendo made the worst camera angle decisions ever for this cutscene and im trying to figure out how theyre posed #and this mad eme emotional #first link’s smile out of bounds when zelda says “warm loving embrace” #and then this just barely visible with the greatest scrutiny and multiple videos some in 4k and some with with different bottom armor #why do they want to hide the details so bad like……trying to figure out their vertical pose here has been so hard #the fact that i have to use different videos just to show more details is crazy. like i had to rely on speedrunners for wearing no pants #totk spoilers #but i found this when comparing the footage and it made me go. AAAGGHHHHH

[callixton]

i especially like that david tennant got the 57 academics just punched the air line w shakespeare bc i know abt the longass romeo essay he wrote in 2005ish and the not insignificant part of it about mercutio's unrequited crush on romeo

#tbh that essay changed me i think they're right and also it's personally so much more interesting to me than mercutio and benvolio #which is all ANYONE ever wants to talk about these days #i thought maybe bc it made such an impact on me i'm remembering it as a bigger part of the essay than it is #but i just checked and no it's like. a quarter of it #this was a prod decision to be clear but one he spends a lot of time expanding on #ted talks #doctor who lb #david tennant

Elvis lovers! The question for this week is…soundtrack songs! What are your top three songs from Elvis movies? Don’t forget to say why they speak to you! I love reading all your choices and the reasons why they mean so much to you! ❤️

Return to Sender (Girls, Girls, Girls) - This is a song I’ve loved since I was a little kid, long before I became an official “Elvis fan.” Even though the lyrics are actually kind of sad, the music for this is so bright and cheerful that it always makes me smile. I love the percussive part that sort of sounds like someone is tap dancing. And after seeing Girls, Girls, Girls, I can’t help but picture him doing his cute dance moves with that big smile on his face.

In My Way (Wild in the Country) - I love the simplicity of this song. This really lets the beauty of his voice shine through, and it is just magical to hear that. ❤️

Trouble (King Creole) - Elvis does so well with bluesy songs like this, and I love how you can tell that he loves them and really gets into them. I love his cute accent on the spoken part, and the way his voice goes up and down when he sings the word “name.” I also love King Creole and New Orleans from this soundtrack. The style is just perfect for him.

Honorable Mention goes to basically the entire soundtracks for Jailhouse Rock and Loving You, especially the song Jailhouse Rock because it is just absolutely iconic from the opening notes on. Another one that I’ve loved for years and at one point would have said was my favorite Elvis song (back when I could probably only name 10-15 lol). “If you can’t find a partner use a wooden chair” was always my favorite line.

[irene-dimension]

yeah, it kinda hurts.

#my stance: i strongly disagree with the decision #i won’t get into everything right now bc the way i feel has been said by many many people already #and it’s really crazy to me that there’s ppl on tumblr who agree with the decision and are bashing those who don’t. just be so fuckining fr #people are allowed to not like a decision these people have made #not everyone is completely blinded by parasocialism #anyways. its disappointing #watcher #steven lim #Ryan bergara #Shane madej

i just want to know what the Evilive production team was smoking when they decided that "Prayer" was the song they'll play during the rain scene

#evilive #like. a choice was made for sure #when doyoung walks up to dongsoo and the lyrics go like 'don't leave me here alone on this lonely road' #and then when dongsoo turns to hold doyoung's hand it's 'say a prayer don't go far i need you right by my side' #actually insane decision to choose this song! #I'm chewing drywall here it's fine this is fine actually!! i am not going insane currently

I watched Avengers: Age of Ultron (apart from I skipped some overly long action sequences) and I am not sure so can someone tell me whether or not Tony Stark was the baddy in that film? Because about halfway through I was sure he was but then it was maybe just an evil robot after all and I am confused because either this film was surprisingly subversive or it was about robots hitting each other.

#I CANT STAND THE CONFUSION IN MY MIND #also i get why people wrote wanda/sylvie. they should go on a wholesome chick-flick revenge-quest together. and also they should kiss. #also i am now only *half* joking about thor being in love with mjolnir #it kept doing Christianity Bits which was quite awks. #not sure why it used the bit about building the church on a rock for some metal i mean wasn't jesus making a pun there? about peter? #i think Vision might be Jesus? or else he's Dr Manhattan who's done a first year philosophy course. could go either way on that tbh. #BUT TONY WAS THE BADDY RIGHT? WAS HE? WAS TONY THE BADDY OR NOT???? #with the homocidal glitches in what he thinks is his winning personality? #and all the weapons he's made and is in fact still making but now he only sells them to The Good Guys? #except look how easily they fall out with each other and also don't a lot of innocent bystanders die in their overly long action scenes? #also i need to write fic about whether mjolnir does in fact obey some unknown code that can be cracked if you set your mind to it #she does like Robot Jesus so apparently we can rely on her to make the major decisions from now on #the ending's a bit ominous - apparently someone's collecting those TVA paperweights to do... something? Oh no! :O #yeah i watched the MCU in the wrong order shut up this was inevitable and Marvisney should just embrace that at this point #(i know 'Marvisney' will never catch on but that will not stop me using it) #the loki series ending is but the latest installment of “unlimited power with no oversight is fine as long as the Good people have it” #UNLESS TONY WAS ACTUALLY THE BADDY. WHICH AS I MENTIONED I AM NOT AT ALL CLEAR ON. #maybe what i mean is was tony stark the baddy *on purpose*? #i only picked this one to watch next because tumblr gifsets told me thor wears a nice coat in it #which he does! but only for a small fraction of the film :( #journey into the mcu #the avengers (the marvel ones not the other ones)

ah yes, the face of a man who is absolutely in heaven about the fact that he's on a date with a woman

#steve: i've got danny right next to me but i'm on a date with the woman opposite me #steve: where the fuck did i go wrong #this man is so expressive and apparently danny needs glasses #because how can he look at this man's face and just ???? not see ????? #if i were on a date with a man who looked like this i probably would have had some questions for him #he looks like he's thinking over every decision he's made to end up there #steve mcgarrett #mcdanno #h50 #h50 7x16

[daily-crabbys]

mmg,, i might hiatus again,,,

I'd hate to do it, but there's no joy in crab posts as of right now, and also as of a long while ago.

Managing messages and responding to people in replies and being tagged and all the stuff in inbox is. a lot.

I never intended or expected crab blog to get this big, and it feels like such a chore to do at this point. Not that I dont like it, and not that I dont enjoy the fellow crab lovers, but it's certainly overwhelming.

That plus other socials and such that I manage and real life stuff is just. IDK, it's a lot. Usually, if I get to this point, I just drop off, maybe delete the account if I really can't stand it, but I'm definitely not going to do that here.

At the very least, I'm going to empty out the submissions that have been piling up, but after that, I'm not sure. I may not even get through all of those, I've already been relying on those for a long time at this point, and I think that's pretty obvious.

It feels like a hassle to deal with those anyways since most people don't even identify what type of crab it is that they submit, so I have to take the time to find it, which is usually not at all easy. There are so many posts that I've just had to guess what to tag it as because I just don't know, and there's no solid answer that I can find, at least not usually.

Which is also partially my fault, I've never said anything about it before, and I never specified it at an earlier time to make incoming ones less stressful to deal with, but even so I just. I don't know, I don't.

I don't know exactly when it'll happen, but it's the most likely thing to happen from here. I think I'll modify some stuff about how I handle the daily-crabbys blog to make it easier on me when I come back, but I'm not entirely sure what that'll be. I've never managed a successful daily posting account before, I haven't the slightest clue how to make it all easier on me.

Sorry that this has gotten so long, I didn't mean to rant. There's just so much that I feel like I need to say.

This isn't something coming out of nowhere, and it isn't going to be immediate. I've thought about wanting to do this for a while, and I know I did this already not too long ago, but I didn't really change anything for myself, so I'm just burnt out a lot faster.

Sorry again, both for the length of this and the fact that it's going to happen, but I've just got to make things better for myself before I carry on long term. I really just fucked myself over by not doing this the first time, but if I don't do something about it eventually then I'll just end up hating this blog too much to continue.

#not crab posting #heads up that this is quite a long post so in case you may not want to read it all(dont blame you) theres just a few things to know #firstly this isnt a random decision i made. ive thought about it for a while and dont think i was ready to come back in the first place #second is that it will not take place immediately! i dont want submissions to sit for too long so ill empty those out before i disappear #this includes a few that i wouldnt ordinarily post or have never found the right time to post. theyve just gotta go #third is that it is no ones fault. well thats not true. its mine. i didnt make changes i should have the first time i went on hiatus #im suffering severely from that now and have burnt out wayyy too fast. which is again no ones fault but mine #im going to change things to make it easier to handle. i need to if i want to keep this going for a long time which i very much do #i just cant when the thought of posting on here every day makes me so unhappy. im just too overwhelmed #im not sure what the changes will be just yet but they're going to be beneficial to me greatly

Fiber arts (crochet and knit, especially) tip I found helpful: It's great to be a yarn snob, but first, find what you actually like to work with. When you're beginning, you might be working with acrylic, and that's fine. There are plenty of great options for acrylic, and even that one material can be vastly different between brands (honestly, I think people don't recognize this enough! Acrylics are actually a diverse material!). However, you might like working with other materials more as you progress, and it's good to see what you'll like! I've been working with 100% cotton recently, and I really, really like it - much moreso than the acrylic I bought when I first crocheted, and I never knew that I would have liked it more.

It's okay to work with whatever you can, especially when it's your only option. When you get the chance, though, think about some things you like in a material. What textures do you like? What colour options do you prefer (bright/muted/natural)? What is realistic for you when it comes to caring for your projects once they're done? These are all important, and they're things that are specific for you. There is no such thing as a "bad material," only materials you like and want to use. It can be intimidating to feel like you're not at this pristine place of yarn-snobbery, but truthfully: it doesn't matter as long as you make things that you like, and being able to explore what you like can be really helpful.

#art #fiber art #knit #crochet #i think this could apply to other forms of fober crafts but i'm not well-versed enough to make such a sweeping generalization <3 #i know sometimes people use 'yarn snob' to say that they are very specific in what they like and that it's not indicating... #...that they think they're somehow 'above' a person with less expertise or experience... #...i just think sometimes beginners can be (understandably) intimidated by all of it... #...and you can start really over-thinking your decisions and if you're Doing Art Right rather than just Doing Art #it's the Doing Art *Right* that will often set you back #it's OKAY to use whatever is both available to you and is of a quality you like #like i don't MIND acrylic - the one i'm using for the fazbeanie is an acrylic... #...in fact the fazbeanie yarn (Big Twist 100% acrylic in chocolate brown) made me learn that acrylic can have really nice softness... #...and it's a very smooth acrylic too. this other skein i got for practice was. very unpleasant for an acrylic #ANYWAY. rant over. for now.
