#I’m scared this is just the beginning

Q: I don’t need the Bailey Kay Superstar Social Media Special. Maybe an assistant, so I don’t miss out on a dope opportunity because my inbox is flooded with enthusiastic butterflies. BK: Aht Aht! This is not about the Hive! This is about the thirsties slipping and sliding into your dms. My butterflies know how to act. Q: Oh really?! BK: Yes really.

Q: That’s funny because… let me see… here… Yeah I definitely got nudes from… wildbutterfly and a sexybfly4liiiife with four i’s. BK: So we’re keeping messages with nudes now, Quinton??? Q: Damn. The government?? Penny, help! Penny: You two are hilarious. This is quality entertainment. Maybe we should reconsider the reality show. BK&Q: NO!

BK: What’s with the face sir? Are we boring you? Khalil: I’m just wondering when we’re gonna talk about the elephant in the room. BK: ( Shit. How does he know?? ) Penny: Khalil, now is not the time. We’re celebrating. Q: No, get it off your chest because you’re definitely killing the vibe.

This was wordy so continue reading below…

Khalil: Look, I gave in with the residency decision, but I’m not rolling over on this retirement thing. I think it’s stupid and a huge fucking mistake. BK: Well damn. Khalil: I don’t get it B. You love this. Music is life. Performing is life. Your fans. All of it. Why would you stop now? BK: You’re right. I do love it. And music has been my life, but I’ve done it all. I’ve accomplished every one of my goals when it comes to being an entertainer. I’m ready to move on.

Khalil: This is crazy. You’re at the top of your game. Now is when you cement your legend status. All the greats are still recording and performing into their adult years, some even elders! BK: I hear you, but right now I just want to do things on my terms and time. I want to focus on my family. I want to help other artists make their dreams come true. Maybe even discover something else I love. Khalil: This industry moves fast. You know that. If you quit, there’s no guarantee you’ll get your spot back. Everyone will move on to the next hot thing. BK: I’m not worried about that. If I come back it will be out of love for the music. I don’t need to chase the fame and the top spot anymore.

Khalil: Did you forget about the 2 albums left on your contract? BK: No, I- Q: Are you really bringing up contracts right now?! Khalil: No one is listening to logic so yes I’m talking about legal obligations. Q: Clearly you didn't hear one thing she just said. You’re still only worried about what she can do for you.

Khalil: Q, stay in your lane. I don’t tell you how to do your job. Don’t tell me how to do mine. Q: Maybe you should think about something else other than the job. There is more to life. Khalil: Here you go with your speeches on family life. Focusing on the job got me, your wife and you the success you have now. You conveniently forget that. The family sim thing is for you. That’s great. But let me and B do what we do best and make sure we all stay winning. BK: It doesn’t have to be an either or situation. Both can be possible. Khalil: Retirement is not both. Retirement is quitting and that’s not the Global Superstar BK that I signed. It’s sounding like Bailey being influenced by Quinton.

Q: I don't like your tone. BK: Khalil, you’re about to cross a line and we really don’t have to go there. Khalil: I’m just being real because you two are not thinking straight. I swear you must be pregnant or something because that’s the only time you come at me with the home life work life balance shit. But even you two wouldn’t be that reckless.

*crickets*

Penny: Bailey… Khalil: Are you fucking kidding me?!

BK: We- Khalil: This is bullshit. I’m out. Penny: Khalil!

cause like there’s something screwy with my brain or whatever that makes dying in a game scary, to the point that i can’t even proceed far enough in botw to figure out how to handle my first guardian, and i have a long list of games that i own and haven’t played more than an hour of because i just really don’t like dying! and i just want to know how get over that hurdle.

#please reblog and/or leave advise on how to not care about getting killed in video games #if i could get past my fear of fictionally dying i could accomplish so many things #i think it’s like #people who are ice skating who have to learn how to fall #but the act of falling on purpose is still extremely fraught #let’s be real it’s also a very real fear of Failure #TERRIFIED of failing. #i’m insecure and so i hate taking risks and so i fail inherently because i can’t rise to the challenge #this isn’t just about video games #it’s about art and jobs and taking control of my life #i’m scared of being unable to meet the conditions necessary and so i don’t even try #but what if i could begin to try starting with just one little thing?

i think one of the reasons i’m so drawn to xue yang (besides Hot. and Vaguely Evil) is that every time i see him i’m staring at an alternate universe wei wuxian. he and wwx are absolutely each other’s ‘what could have been’ and watching them interact is so fascinating

#you can so clearly see how despite beginning in the same situation their paths diverged so early on in life #and then we get into the nurture vs nature debate #i’m willing to argue a bit of both here #wwx is so fundamentally justice oriented and we see what lengths he will go to to defend that #literally with his life #i don’t think you could ever change that but i do think the (limited) care of the jiangs certainly shaped him #xue yang seems so fundamentally drawn to cruelty #but it’s hard to see where the pain of abandonment and thirst for revenge separates from his nature #i think he would have always been interested in cruelty i think that aspect of him cannot be changed #if he just wanted revenge he would have stopped at harming those who abandoned him #yet he continued to extremes and murdered entire clans seemingly for fun #i would argue even if he had a loving upbringing that innate cruelty would have still manifested itself somehow #HOWEVER #xue yang with a loving upbringing is still harmful but certainly not to the extent he is without it #i see that version of him as a more twisted wwx type who is into experimentation but ultimately is drawn back to society by his loved ones #they are so fundamentally opposed in their values #and yet on some level they are both that scared abandoned child #mdzs #the untamed #cql #wei wuxian #wei ying #wwx #xue yang #xy #cql meta #the untamed meta #i love 2 am philosophy

The Great Bellkeeper Panic of July 2020 was sooooo silly goofy. Like sketchbookers really looked at the gayest transest man in the history of ever and said ‘cishet enemy >:(‘ haha sooooooo silly of us

#I stayed up until what. 11pm being mean and scared about him to waddles #and for what? just to start writing him as Johanna’s family and begin to stan him? #2020 me: who are you #2023 me: I’m you but now we got a new Hilda character we’re insane about #2020 me: oh is it Abigail? is it one of the new witches? is it a new magical creature? #2023 me: … 😉

starting to think maybe waking up with an anxiety stomachache every single morning and then needing to spend the entire day trying to get rid of said anxiety just to maybe have a few minutes in the evening of feeling relaxed before going to bed is perhaps not normal

#the first thing i do when i become conscious is check my phone to make sure nothing terrible happened to anyone i love while i slept #i never ever ever have plans and if anyone Else has plans i feel sick with anxiety until they’re back from them #if i have smth planned that week i feel completely tense and on edge until it happens #i didn’t used to be like this i hate hate hate it #i used to feel safe in my little house in the forest where i knew everyone in town and knew my way around with my eyes shut #it’s still the only place in the world i feel safe. that’s so unfair #my separation anxiety is ridiculous. if my mom goes to the store and doesn’t answer a text right away i start panicking #if my sister goes to a class or smth idk what to do with myself until she gets back #if i’m in the shower or have the fan on or headphones in suddenly i’ll think i hear someone shouting and i’ll have to quickly turn it off #ever since i moved here it’s been getting worse. i don’t feel safe here to begin with i feel so out of place it’s unreal #but then covid and trauma with my mother’s health and my uncle dying and multiple relatives getting sick and things happening to my friends #i know i have ptsd from very specific things that happened and i live on a hospital path so every day i hear sirens #and every time i do it fully triggers an anxiety attack in me for at least an hour. and my mom too #since being here my hometown burned and friends i thought would never grow apart did and my brother moved out #i know a lot of that is just Being In Your Low Twenties but also some of my worst trauma has happened in the last handful of years and now #now i’m just always scared. always uneasy. always worried. never fully relaxed. never feel fully safe. & idk how to be myself through that #i’m always paranoid and i never trust people irl anymore. ppl my mom or sister meet. i am so suspicious of them constantly. #if anything small changes at all i can’t handle it. my ability to deal with change has gone so downhill #in the last 5 years of being here i realised i was autistic which led to me unmasking a bit and that. comes with pros & cons doesn’t it #my own health has declined. my body changed a lot in ways i wasn’t prepared for and i had to get rid of most of my comfort clothes #sometimes i just wanna sit on the ground and cry about it and not have to also be the one that picks myself back up. y’know??? #but at the very least i’d love to just wake up One Day w/o feeling sick with anxiety already. just one day i want to wake up feeling rested #i want to be myself again but can i start with not being scared? not being tired? i don’t know what to do anymore #i just watch my comfort videos and read my comfort fics and stay in my daydream world

Feel free to reblog for larger sample size, because this can only get exponentially funnier the more results it gets while simultaneously utterly straining my bromance of many years.

#ILU stahp. this is fake discourse at it’s finest I’ve just never used polls for evil and choose today to begin #I can’t wait to see the tags considering salt and pepper at a table at all is very…certain culture centered #can’t reply what I have because it might bias the curiosity poll and scare my bro back to mastodon (or worse. Twitter.) #but this poll exists because you can understand the implications and that there are sides to this #I’m fully expecting Stahp vindication and honestly that is why this poll exists. #unless the dune kids find it. and then god help us all #/ONE FEAR #/ONE LITANY AGAINST FEAR

shoutout to jrwi for creating some of the most PATHETIC men i’ve ever seen in my entire life

#even from the BEGINNING. #like the riptide ep7 bug fight #that begins with gil and chip tripping over each other and accepting their demise laying in the mud #and chip’s self-proclaimed death scares #ep7 is the one for pathetic chip enjoyers #i just finished ep63 and the abberation fight was CRAZY. the end was so pathetic #i loved it #jrwi #i’m a chip enjoyers can you tell #chip jrwi #just roll with it #jrwi riptide

Given that Jamie doesn't act scared or anxious about Roy at all any more when he yells, like in 3.02 he just kind of talks over him til he makes his point, do you think maybe the show just thinks that Jamie trusts Roy and doesn't see his aggression like that, he knows Roy won't hurt him? Or maybe it's that Roy knows Jamie would hate Roy to act differently, out of sympathy or pity? To be clear I don't disagree w you at all, just trying to work out what the angle of the show might be if they do not address this.

Hmm honestly…I don’t know!! It’s really throwing me because I truly can’t predict the writer’s intentions on this one at all.

I will say, if they’re doing it from a “Jamie just isn’t scared of Roy” angle, I’m not necessarily disagreeing with it, but I also don’t think they’ve done a good enough job at showing us the basis for that assumption. It’s weird because their relationship has sort of progressed into the tentative friendship territory between the end of season 2 and the start of season 3, but most of that happened offscreen and in other ways they seem to not really have progressed at all, especially re: Roy’s aggression. It just feels like a really weird dissonance from what we saw in the Man City Ep and it definitely bugs me that the implications of that episode for both Jamie & Roy have never been brought up again.

If it’s something that’s still coming over the course of this season it will make sense to me!! It’s a layered arc!! But if it’s never addressed again I will definitely be confused…because what IS the angle? Roy maybe doing it in an attempt to act aggressively normal so jamie doesn’t think he’s being pitied doesn’t feel like what’s happening here to me (also roy is smarter than that I think. I just don’t feel, if he was really thinking consciously about his actions, he would get physically aggressive to the point of needing to be held back by half the team as per s3 ep2. Yelling and getting angry sure, but not to that extent) but if that’s what they’re intending I’m going to still need that to be a conversation at some point!!

#ted lasso #ted lasso spoilers #I guess it’s less that I think Jamie is scared by Roy (I dont) #and more so that I think Roy acting that way to begin is a reflection of how terrible his mental state is right now. #he doesn’t know how to express that he cares for this person so he warps those intense feelings into anger #I think it’s something he’s doing without being fully aware of it. #which is a valid if complicated response #and I also think he’d be kind of horrified once he stepped back and realized. #I just want it to be DISCUSSED!! #it’s like what’s happening is either really layered meaningful writing. or they’re asking viewers to make a hell of a lot of assumptions #I’m not sure if any of that makes much sense lol but #roy Kent #jamie Tartt #royjamie #asks

#literally begging for this writers strike and sag strike to be over so I can go back to WORK #it’s nice to be able to sleep and have time to see family but also!! I fucking miss it!! a whole lot!! #I miss being a part of this huge thing getting to make some beautiful or funny or just really cool art!!!! #I really miss feeling like I’m making something meaningful!!! #and now it feels like quarantine again where I have such a fire inside me that wants to create and make art and films and everything #but I get so scared of starting it that I don’t even know where to begin #which is fucking stupid #but I feel like whatever I want to make won’t be good enough #which is also stupid #bc I know I have to make bad stuff to get to the good #anyway #bella's thoughts #personal

#i want to tell my girlfriend i **** him but i’m so nervous to bc we haven’t said it out loud yet #like i want the moment to be Right… i don’t want to rush it…. #i think they feel the same #so far we’ve just been saying i reeeeeaally like you #aughh why is it hard to say #i guess i’m like. idk just a tiny bit scared of having too many feelings or something but it’s too late i already have the feelings #we said at the beginning we don’t want to rush things #we’ve been dating for about 2 months now is that too early??? #and we’ve only known each other for like a month or so longer than that

I have caved and decided to start binging Batman the animated series

Harvey my boy my son noooooooooooooo

Alfred is awesome I love him so much

Detective Bullock is rising up into a favorite character, I think he should be allowed to swear. Please it would be so funny if Jim’s just over here trying to calm everything down and Bullocks in the corner cussing out Batman.

#I’m still right pretty much at the very beginning #favorite episode so far is Jokers Favor #man regrets so much and would like to go home please :’) #Also I’m so happy Dent got a two parter #he deserves it #also happy we see a bit of him pre-Two Face #I think pre-rogue Harvey who’s doing his best to keep it together has a lot of untapped potential #ALSO WHY IS HE BLUE #IM CRYIG #it’s also very fun to try and guess the villain of the episode #like the one I’m watching right now is called Fear of Victory #and like- hi Scarecrow #oh yeah someone just got gassed #why the hell is Crane attacking a sports game??? #Homie why do you care??? #Robin???????? #every time I see Robin it’s like a jump scare cause he’s in some then not in others #I’m convinced I’m watching these out of order #Random’s random talks

Summary: Gloreth has never had a friend before, but when she sees a mysterious girl in the forest, everything changes.

Baby Nimona and Gloreth being friends is something that can be so personal 💚
