At only thirty two years of age, Louis Tomlinson has made quite the life for himself—he has his dream job, a place all his own, a nice car, and all the people closest to him are seeing success of their own. The only big thing he's missing now is having the right partner and starting a family with them, although he figures he has plenty of time for that yet. That is, until his best mate, Harry, comes to him with a proposition. Or: what happens when you become your best friend's baby daddy.

See You in My 19th Life had me fully invested, even though i'm not big on romance, probably because it's so soft and sincere and thoughtful. it's a collection of love stories woven together throughout nineteen lives. it's one love story spanning a thousand years. it's so many kinds of love that can be found even in one life: Aegyong making Jieum her family, Jieum forming a sisterly bond with Chowon, Seoha and Doyoon's brotherhood, Chowon and Doyoon cutely and tentatively pining for each other, and of course the quietly passionate love between Jieum and Seoha.

See You in My 19th Life, at its core, is a story about love: loving people and loving life so intensely you leave no room for hatred, rage, or spite. there's no unnecessary drama. the show's not perfect: there are a couple of loose ends in the plot, but still, it's enjoyable and it made my weekends. oh, and the music is also top-tier 🥰

#see you in my 19th life #shin hye sun #ahn bo hyun #kdramas #newt's notes #disclosure: i have not read the webtoon so these are my comments on the drama as a drama on its own not as an adaptation #also here with me by doyoung is played at the gates of heaven i'm pretty sure

I'm probably one of the only people in these times that's an incredibly weird place creatively, because I'm almost 30 years old, I'm incredibly mature, more mature than most people I see post on the internet, I have a lot of nuanced detrimental complex philosophical thoughts all day everyday, I am tragically thoughtful, and yet every single time I open up this app, at least half the time I see people posting cringe warnings about self-inserts and fanfictions and anything posted on fanfiction.net, which is where I am posting my work daily in the forms of self-insert which I take incredibly seriously, what a strange combination of a culture. I'm severely depressed and my self-esteem is low as anything but it's also kind of funny, or could be, how utterly strange of a combination it is for a person to process their suffering.

#I know that's self insert fanfictions are generally considered something on the same level as shitposting #but I'm pretty sure that nobody has ever read myself inserts #I'm an incredibly weird person and nothing I do is conventional or ever has been #so it's hard to say for sure what category my fanfiction goes into and I'll never know because nobody reads it #but I just assume whenever I see an anti-fan fiction post on here and that it's probably true

right so

spoilers for TMAGP ep 1 (yes I tagged it but just in case)

I'm not thinking much about Lena

I'm not thinking much about Gwen

yknow who I am stuck thinking about?

the mod of that website (couldn't catch the name, the one where they talked about the Institute)

1) they give me the exact same spoopy vibes I got the 1st time I heard Elias's name back in the day (I need to tell tumblr that story one day, I'm still proud of that)

2) the way they...expressed themselves brought back memories

so yeah idk who that mod is and they may never appear again (tho I'm sure they will at some point) but they've given me the most of the vibes I was looking for as of yet.

3) listening to redcanary's part of the convo I kept thinking that they'd found the Panopticon (maybe cause I was still thinking about it from my test lmao). and then I heard the whole "canaries should stay above ground" thingy and my 1st immediate thought about that was how did the mod know that?

this might just be me going insane in the brain (probably) but I think I just found our babygirl

Nowwwwww, I facetiously mentioned at the bottom of this post about the Halo: Reach achievement:

To do that, you have to go under or close to par time on pretty much each level ON LEGENDARY.

I have beaten Reach on Legendary but it probably took me closer to 30 hours than 3 because I did my slow, methodical strategies to get through. I did the par time achievement by running past everything I could on Easy. Can I combine the two successfully?

I decided to give the first level "Winter Contingency" a try (after watching some Youtube vids on getting this achievement, of course 😉). Par time is 15 minutes.

That was my third try, the first was 16 and some minutes, the second got it to 15 and some and then that one got under the par by 32 seconds! I should note that this is considered one of the easiest levels to do on Legendary and the guide I watched by the ever-awesome Halo Completionist did it under 12 minutes and you're going to need every spare second you can scrap together to give you a buffer for some of the long, difficult levels. But still!

It's silly, I know, but I feel so proud of me! I'm an old lady (well, middle-aged, if I'm being generous 😜) playing Halo with shaky hands but I made under par time on Legendary! 🥳🥳🥳

PS - Tried it again and got 13:55!

[blazingblorbos]

oh god. oh god. oh.. oh gosh. I didn't expect this so soon. I didn't expect this today, I've been busy with life related things so the HYV calendar is really unbeknownst to me, is this update really next week already?? where can I rant about this- whERe can I rant about this-

oh. I made a blog for that exact purpose ! OKAY—!

fuck. fuck me, dude holy-

FUCK.

the slightly worried look on Arle's face as Snezhevna is reaching out her hand, only for her face to seemingly revert back to cold and neutral once the camera actually focuses in on her. Her tone is cold but her words are reassuring,,,,,,,,

ALSO GOD FUCKING DAMN IT. HOW GENTLY SHE HOLDS HER HAND.

the d o o r. the DOOR. THE FUCKING DOOR, CHAT. the slow opening at first, and once you can make out that it's certainly Arle's silhouette she shoves it fully open - both doors, both hands. incredibly attractive—. the FEAR in that man's eyes.

The crossed hands. We can't see her face but you know what expression she's making (it's not really an expression. it's neutral but you can feel it). THE FUCKING F E A R ON THAT MAN'S FACE.

Oh- she literally just grabbed him by the throat. Just like that- ! There's the expression. Oh, you feel it, alright. If you go frame by frame, you'll notice her eyes narrow in the slightest right before ->

POV: you're getting chocked out by Arlecchino, and that's actually the least of your worries. (my god she is beautiful).

I did not expect him to simply be thrown down to the ground and I ... d i d not expect her to step on his FACE. [insert gay masochistic joke here. you know the one]. Did not expect her to smile (this is the ONLY scene wherein we see her smile even slightly... huh...) *And the reason I say "I did not expect her to smile", is because with the momentum we were getting I thought she was straight up going to crush his throat, or stab him (hand, weapon or otherwise). It looked like she was digging the forefoot of her shoe into the guys head and not the... .. y'know deadly fucking heel, so that.. confused me. (and the sound when she supposedly stomped his head in did NOT sound all that impactful) but ANYWAYS I digress-

I'm of course assuming more happened after the cut to black because . madam where did you get that bloodstain on you—

BLOODSTAIN ON HER FACE!?!?!? (more on this in a second)

Freminet??? Freminet feature ! (not Lyney or Lynette.. interesting). :(((( the poor boy sounds so,, desensitized. His father

holy shit quick intermission. After the mental chronological fuckfest that was "The Song Burning in the Embers" I don't think I can look at Arle and the HotH the same anymore because she's.. she's like not even 10 years older than them (?) it's insane this doesn't make any sense- ANYWAYS.

HIS FATHER comes back with what we later see to be real blood on her face. Tells him "I've acquired new funds". We know what that means... HE knows what that means!!, and the way WE - THE AUDIENCE - know that Freminet knows what it means is because the boy replies "Oh.. Okay.."

LIKE-! chat omg this is truly just routine for them,,,, Like out of the 3 siblings, Freminet always gave off the biggest child assassin vibe, but wow. To see that routine and desensitized nature of the HotH's line of work just,, splayed out in a Character Trailer is . wow. and the look in his eyes as he says it is- wow.

YEAH UHH BLOODSTAIN ON HER FACE??/ The lighting in this scene now is evidently less saturated. And it's just- oh my FUCKING GOD it does so many things:

the blood on Arle's face looks... dry. it doesn't look as fresh as you may expect which could mean many things. It could mean she spent,,, hella long in there with that guy doing what needed to be done. It could mean she took care to something else immediately after dealing with the guy (perhaps smth related to the children Snezhevna wanted to save). But regardless it means she didn't put in the effort to clean her face and hide what happened. OBVIOUSLY !!! that is so . obviously her style but to S E E IT IN MY GENSHIN IMPACT CHARACTER TRAILER it's- oh my god

it serves to highlight the really, truly, bleak nature of the scene now that we know plain and simple Arlecchino just killed a man. There's no subtext, there's no reading between the lines. The only thing that didn't happen is that we didn't see contact nor see a body. But, no sugarcoating, Arlecchino killed a man. No one is hiding it. You are not surprised. No one should be but damn.

and ofc it acts as a representation of Snezhevna dying...

because it seems like the saturation is back once the camera switches to looking at Snezhevna laying in bed.

And is it me, or does it look like Arle's allowing herself to actually display a tinge of worry in her expression this time? And also, EVER so slightly in her tone as well. You can feel it, it's gentler.

"Once I'm better I'll start my next mission.."

THIS. THIS!! IN SO MANY WAYS THIS!

OKAY. so bear with me. I haven't actually read any of the sibling's character stories yet, so there could be a LOT of info I'm missing but:

There's still a pretty thought-provoking conversation going on (in MY mind, at least) about just how intensely these children are being trailed to be soldiers for the Fatui. They're obviously in an environment that indoctrinates them into being soldiers of SOME kind, but I still don't know what kind of soldier that's supposed to be. Are they all ALWAYS extensions of the Fatui? Or are they more-so extensions of Arlecchino specifically..? Snezhevna was obviously trying to help those children she came across, and I'm assuming that happened on her latest mission, so was the mission for a charitable cause?? What was her next mission supposed to be?? Same line of work? Saving people? Or would it switch up and was she going to be sent to "take care of" (kill .) someone???

So I don't know whether to interpret that line as a hint of them being overworked and 1) feeling like they need to continue their work out of pure fear that they'll be deemed ineffective and useless... or 2) feeling like they need to continue their work out of a sense of loyalty and duty to the place that took them in and raised them. Or both..

and ofc the funeral scene. I can't say much more than what's already shown right on the screen.

and am I bugging? Or is the location of the grave....

[svtskneecaps]

my biological peer reviewer (sibling) called this theory “fun” and said i should send it, so here goes

my personal theory is the feds ((”federation”)) created the eggs because they decided the best way to enforce “you can never leave” was to give the people something they couldn’t lose, like in the post by tumblr user alexaloraetheris (no relation to the smp) where their friend who might be a deity had said,

"When you die you descend to the underworld with nothing to lose. To keep you, they give you something to lose. When you want to return, they will demand it back. That's why nobody ever leaves. The only way out is to never enter."

i’m thinkin that on egg D-Day, at the end of the countdown, the feds weren’t gonna give the eggs back. they were just gonna hide them forever, or do something else, anything else, just keep them away from their surrogate parents, because then the people would just be STUCK, because people could theoretically take their eggs and leave, but if the eggs are missing, gone without a trace, then the residents CAN’T LEAVE, because presumably the eggs are STILL THERE, SOMEWHERE, IN NEED OF HELP AND RESCUE, if only the residents could find them ON THE ISLAND. if they leave the island while the eggs are missing, they are abandoning these things that have become their children.

but then in came the brazilians. and shit went south. because see, the spenglish (spanish / english) streamers were INVITED, but the brazilians CRASHED; the feds didn’t INVITE THEM, they weren’t EXPECTING THEM, but they can’t let these guys leave either, so they PANIC, and they scramble to give the brazilians the same thing--something to lose. the new egg had a brazilian jersey, homie was TAILOR MADE for them to pack bond with. the feds didn’t have time to send out multiple eggs, it was all or nothing, so they picked something they could reasonably assume all five of them would find endearing because they don’t know shit about these guys--they had a week to observe the OG batch, but all they know about these newbies is the brazilian flag on their boat--and so they sent the little egg out to become THEIR THING, the thing they couldn’t afford to lose.

it leaves open why the eggs are cracked too, bc idk what’s going on there lol, either 1: the eggs cracked because they’re hatching and the feds picked that date bc they wanted to yoink the eggs before they got Too Powerful, or 2: the feds were the ones to crack the eggs as an excuse for why they vanished--returning the eggs untouched would open too many questions the feds don’t want them asking; this way, instead of being concerned specifically with “why were the eggs missing”, the residents presume they know the answer--the cracks.

but yea i’m just gonna add as an aside that personally i think cucurucho / osito bimbo / the white fucker is way more active again because the feds are still scrambling to keep up with the brazilians (which, again, the feds weren’t expecting), and the binary fuckwad came in to put the fear of god into the newbies--maybe so they didn’t get too focused on the morse code transmissions; iirc max was theorizing that both osito and binary were part of the federation ? and if so it does make sense that the binary entity went to fuck with cellbit immediately after cellbit was introduced to the conspiracies of the island, yknow, a warning shot. i think they want them to be focused on the eggs.

BUT THAT’S JUST A THEOr

12 - Anqā

The Anqā or Anqā Mughrib is an enormous, mysterious female bird in Arabian mythology. She is said to fly far away and only appear once in ages, however, she can be found at "the place of the setting of the sun". It is described as very beautiful and colorful with "a long neck, human face, four pairs of wings, some resemblance with every living being, and a whiteness in its neck". Zakariya al-Qazwini comments that it's "a wise bird with experience gained throughout many ages and gives admonitions and moral advice".

The word anqā means "long-necked". The word mughrib has a number of meanings signifying "strange, foreign", "distant, remote", "west, sunset", "desolated, unknown" and "white, dawn" and expresses the enigma as well as unreality associated with the creature. Anqā, however, is also related to ʿanāq ("misfortune, hard affair") and was, along with ʿanqāʾ mughrib, used to mean a calamity. It was so because the bird was said to be originally a being with all perfections but became a plague or scourge and was killed.

@desi-lgbt-fest Day-3: Fear/Guilt

I'm an ace. *hairflip*

Why.. Why don’t I feel any butterflies when I look at him? What is this feeling that everyone is having when they look at him? “Dirty thoughts” do they call those? Why don’t I feel any of those? Why can’t I think about him in a different way? A ‘more-than-friend’ kind of way? All I can see is that he is a smart guy and good at his academics. Nothing more than that. Am I still a kid and stuck at that age without going through adolescence? They say everyone my age goes through these changes and feels things of this sort, but I don’t. I’ve tried looking at pictures, videos, none of it made me feel anything. Everyone keeps discussing the so-called hot and ‘sexy’ guys and girls, but they look normal to me. At maximum, they look a tiny bit attractive maybe but why does everyone want to kiss them and do “dirty things” to them? They keep sharing all these pictures and videos of half-naked people in the group and they are “simping” over them. What even is simping? I feel like an old granny in between everyone. Am I not normal or weird as they call me for not feeling that way? Is this the only way that someone is supposed to feel? What if I’m never attracted to anyone in my life? What if I don’t want to marry anyone? What if I don’t want to have sex and have biological kids? Will my parents still be proud of me? Will my friends still be friends with me if I don’t talk to them about all that? I’m scared. Maybe I’m supposed to feel guilty for not being normal, but I don’t. I don’t like this at all but this is who I am and this is how I feel. I’ve Googled more about what I feel or rather what I don’t feel and asexual is the term. Maybe no one is going to accept that I’m an asexual, I’m sure they don’t even know that exists. But I do. I’m an ace. (pun intended)

Uh, Hi everyone!

So, I guess it's time I do one of those obligatory social media posts where I say "Wow! All these new people here! Time to introduce myself."

Well, let's see...I'm 38, I'm a tarot reader with my own website (please, save me from my two-job, 7-day work week hell, and buy a reading from me lol). I am considering streaming my readings again if i can find the time...we shall see how that goes lol. I am in the middle of a divorce after 16 yrs so sorry if I share my sad brain shit once in a while, and I am brainrotting all to hell b/c of Gale Dekarios. Oh, and I have a dog named Lady. I like cats, but I'm allergic (sorry, Gale). Most of the time, I am on here reblogging Gale-related things that make my brain do happy microwave noises, or posting about my OC x Gale fic series I am currently writing on AO3. It would really feed my praise kink if you read it. Even more so if you give me comments and kudos. Truly though, I LOVE connecting with other BG3 fans, and Galemancers/appreciators. Y'all keep me well-fed and happy. I love y'all. This blog is NSFW as fuck b/c as you can clearly see, I am a swear word enthusiast, and smut writer (well...ok. I write a little bit of decent-ish Gale smut. Don't get too excited).

You can basically find me everywhere as MiradelleTarot, or even just Miradelle. I guess that's it? idk. Y'all decided to follow me so hopefully I say words you like, or at least connect you to others who say words you like.

I have two wolves inside of me: one of those wolves really wants to share my theories/speculations/analyses of scarlet hollow and the other wolf is my intense fear of being wrong and my self doubt that makes me think that no one else wants to hear my rambling.

#camren rambles #scarlet hollow #right now i have a bunch of disjointed little theories/speculations #i also have a pretty good out line of an analysis of Avery and Wayne and how they can act as foils to each other #? i think that's the word you would use to describe it #not 100% sure but that's what I'm going with #if people would be interested in reading that then maybe at some point I'll type it up on here and post it
