To everyone’s feelings that will likely get hurt— I’m genuinely remorseful. I didn’t like when Em posted the ss of a gc calling me an inbred idiot. It’s a horrible feeling. But this is online and there’s only so much I can do except not repeat the behavior.

Anyways I’m going to continue to exist, if you like it, great, if you don’t, cool. I think most ppl that associate w Em and Ange have me blocked anyways so join the club❤️

cup ive been busy for the past like 2 hours, what has happened. whatd dream do. mind giving me a recap?

Yeah Cup Recap Time:

1: Dream tweets about how hes just totally done with the drama as of now (ignore what happened 2 weeks ago and for the entirety of his career ofc) and hes a better person than 2-3 years ago and less impulsive.

2: average harry responds calling dream out for creepy and manipulative behavior.

3: average harry deletes the tweet out of respect for the potential victim/the story (because he spoke for her in something that was likely told in confidence)

4: dream responds to average harry to answer his DMs pleek (definitely not drama or cease and desist because dream's changed as of today!)

Bonus: the timing of this is within when tommy mentioned he recorded a vlog he might post ranting about the aftermath of his video that was a comedic neg to dream's paragraphs about qsmp/quackity which does make it suspicious that dream is trying to make himself look sympathetic/shield himself for what is said.

What online content would the strawhats make?

Luffy: obviously Mukbangs on live and also random gaming content (open world only, he absolutely cannot focus on a plot line) also live

Sanji: he cooks the food for the Luffy Mukbangs, also he makes binging with babish style videos. As a perfectionist it does take him at least 3 weeks to edit and post a video.

Zoro: He doesn’t make videos outright, but he is famous on tiktok because the strawhats post videos where he is always asleep in the background. Occasionally tagged in Kendo competition videos.

Nami: she is posting ranting, gossiping, and celebrity news videos and making fun of finance bros. She’s an icon. She has merch and it is high quality and expensive.

Ussop and Franky: DIY youtube kings, showing people how to fix things that would normally cost too much to fix

Robin: deep dive videos on history, including true crime from at least 100 years ago

Chopper: baby boy is posting fun videos on tiktok with his friends, does not realize his profile is public

Brook: music review videos and covers of the latest hits. Very popular because everyone loves this weird old man. He only posts on Facebook and a fan channel is the one who uploads it to a youtube account

Bonus Law: Law posts rants about the inaccuracies of medical shows like Greys Anatomy, reality television and Dr. Oz. He’s been served a cease and desist by Dr. Oz and it’s framed in the background of his videos now.

“Cease and desist, bitch!”

News flash friends: job hunting is still terrible. Like, four months in and it’s still the worst. I finished two interview loops recently and I’m waiting to hear back and I have two others I’m trying to get through and it’s all hurry up and wait.

But then Netflix told me that GIRLS5EVA was coming to the platform, complete with a new season, and I got soooo excited. 

I’m sure no one has heard of this show, it was born on Peacock and it’s a Tina Fey joint but there’s definitely a super specific audience for it which is, basically, me. 

Were you born in the 80’s/early 90’s? Did you love all the random girl groups/boybands? Are you now barreling toward 40 and it’s just really depressing and terrible? Then Girls5eva is also for you. 

Wherein, four millennial women decide to reunite their early 2000’s girl group after their one-hit wonder is sampled on a new hip hop track. 

It’s hilarious. And really specific. And starring SARA BAREILLES who in real life is an incredible musician. Y’all remember “Gravity”? No? Even though it was featured in a Community episode where Annie cuts to a montage because she’s  trying to convince everyone that she and Jeff have had a ‘will-they-won’t-they’ thing going on all year? “Gravity” is the theme of that montage!

While you’re checking out Girls5eva, also listen to Sara Bareilles. The girl is a true fucking talent. 

ALSO, Busy Philipps. I LOVE Busy Philipps. And have loved her since Dawson’s freakin’ Creek and then AGAIN in Cougartown. 

(Side rant - Cougartown really is a wonderful show. Terrible name, but honestly incredibly funny and there are a ton of good running jokes and it’s just fun as hell. Courteney Cox got shagged on that one, it really is a gem.)

Anyway. There are 3 seasons and it follows the ladies valiantly trying to make a comeback while dealing with being normal people again after their brief shot at fame in the early 2000’s. Which, I think we all remember fondly but was actually a pretty gross time and the show makes sure you remember that - it was not great for women by any means and it’s still not great now but Girls5eva make it work. And it’s endearing.

And y’all, some of the songs are a fuckin’ bop. BPE? Aka “Big Pussy Energy” (the club remix) is the anthem we all need right now. “Kick down the doors no locks / I don't need a key / Eyes down here, yeah, I'm the centerpiece / Animal queendom feline synergy / Kickin’ down the doors, big pussy energy!” That shit gets you in the right frame of mind. I need more semi-cheesy female anthems in my life and I’m pretty sure you do too. 

Honestly, the show is really just about the fact that life doesn’t have to end after your 20’s, you can keep going after your dreams even if they’re ridiculous. And you can balance your regular shit while you do it. And you don’t need a man to define who you are. And you can leave toxic relationships if you need to. And you can grow as a person. And you can still be a crazy bitch sometimes and your friends will support you.

There’s a lot going on, and it’s all wonderful. Honestly, we need more shows about olderish female friends, with a touch of insanity. I don’t want regular female friends, I want batshit female friends doing ridiculous things. 

Also, lastly, Wickie Roy is a fucking icon. In a weird way because she’s struggling to live in a normal world and she refuses to compromise and she’s an absolute nutbag but in the best way possible. 

Basically, Girls5eva is making me feel better about my life. If they can get back into pop music, I can get myself another boring job and BPE is gonna help me get it done. 

“Momentum yeah / um it’s our moment / we’re contenders…”

Cease and Desist

I really need to rant about the state of UK politics, but also I'm so literally tired of living in an increasingly fascistic, villainously late-stage-capitalist state that I don't know if I can summon up the energy to properly describe (let alone explain) the shitshow that this country is turning into, reminiscent of the worst nadir of the 80s.

Like... have you read Suella Braverman's fuck-you letter to Rishi Sunak yet? That was... certainly something, and honestly looked, to my mind, tantamount to a call to arms for the far-right and offering herself up as a rallying point, probably leadership.

And yeah, it was disturbing.

Her four points which formed part of her conditions to support someone she's now publicly labelled, essentially, a weak leader with little support and reliant on what bigots she can muster to his back... are genuinely troubling stuff. Aggressively regressive and deeply misanthropic. She attacks migrants and refugees, trans people (especially trans youth), and lays it out as though she's being the reasonable one. She's managing to make Sunak look centrist. No mean feat.

Go look at "small boats" as a topic on Twitter, just for an example of who she's representing. Trust me: it's not just progressive folk being sarcastic and/or appalled by the anti-refugee rhetoric, there are a shit-ton of people complaining that not enough is being done to curb "the problem of the small boats". Who've bought into this propaganda wholesale.

If you're not concerned, I'm going to suggest that either you're not paying enough attention, or you consider yourself one of the people her priorities serve.

Either way, you have to know that there's only one real way this shit can go if we don't find a way to stop it.

Because it gets worse, for my money. Tonight (well, 15-Nov-23), the House of Commons had the chance to vote on a proposed amendment to the King's Speech put forward by the Scottish National Party: for the UK to call for a ceasefire in Gaza. And not only did the Tories overwhelmingly vote against that (which we would obviously have expected), but the Labour Party were told: if you're a Shadow Cabinet member and you vote for the ceasefire, you're out, we'll give your job to someone else. Obviously I paraphrase.

Turns out you can go to the Government website and download the raw data about the way the MPs voted (or failed to vote) on the matter of the ceasefire, which gets you the names and parties and which way they went. So I made a graph. And I'm honestly sickened.

(Image description in alt-text; let me know if you need the data in a different format up-front.)

Now, it's not like if all the Labour MPs who'd abstained had voted yes it would have swung it (it would still have been 266 vs. 294), but I know I'd be feeling a lot better, and a lot more confident in our so-called Opposition.

See, the thing is that, to my mind, unless you're genuinely all-for the extermination of all Palestinians in the region, a ceasefire is the only means to an actual solution. I just keep remembering how much progress was finally made in Northern Ireland in the 90s, but that (and I wildly simplify here, I suspect) it took a ceasefire to give stability and space and time in which successful negotiations could happen.

Just as I condemned, and still condemn, both IRA and UDA, and every politician and financier egging them on, so do I condemn the violent extremists on both sides of the equation in Gaza. And I strongly suspect that, if nothing changes, thousands upon thousands of civilians, mostly Palestinian, are going to die through no fault of their own until there's no-one left to annihilate. To dicker about the Right Kind of Cessation of Hostilities is demonstrating a casual disdain for human life that chills me even as I rage.

We all like to think we'd be one of the good guys when we look back at pivotal fascist moments in human history. The truth is that, right now, people's lives are being destroyed while people with unimaginable amounts of power are more concerned with jockeying for more than attempting to stem the tide of dehumanisation we're seeing rising across the world, simultaneously in pretty much every nation this time. I don't see anything like enough happening to stop it, and I'm genuinely scared.

Liushen Week Day 1

Unplanned/ Contact. Or as my brain translated it, Liushen accidental kiss :)

Read it after the cut or in AO3!

----

If you had told Shen Qingqiu in the past that he would one day look forward to spending time with Liu Qingge and even find it relaxing, he would have looked at you and sent you to Mu Qingfan for a suspected qi deviation.

Honestly, while Liu Qingge wasn't the one he was most uncomfortable with (that position went to Yue Qingyuan), he was up there on the list. Their little scene at the Lingxi Caves (of which he will not think about, thank you very much!) only made things worse, for both of them it seemed. Liu Qingge had started to keep a very close eye on him, close enough to make him feel he would be attacked the moment he made a wrong move. Oh, the stress he'd been under those weeks...

And to make things worse, they were forced to spend a few hours together every few weeks for his meridian cleansing. The silence between them only made Shen Yuan want to squirm, and it was a relief when it ended and his shidi rushed out of his home. Honestly, the situation should have made them avoid each other like the plague whenever they could.

Only... it didn't.

There was one day when the System had told Shen Yuan a certain reaction had been som OOC that he'd nearly been penalized because one of the disciples had suspected he wasn't the original goods. This had shaken Shen Yuan, and that day the tense silence between the two martial siblings had been unbearable. So he did what he usually did when he was nervous: he talked.

At first, prying up words from his shidi was like prying up nails with his bare hands: painful and nearly impossible. The silent figure at his back only made him self-conscious of his attempt at a conversation, which made him more nervous, which only made him want to talk more. The awkwardness of that day, when his shidi disappeared without a word after they were done, should have made him cease and desist from his efforts. Only, a chat with the System about the inevitability of pushing Binghe into the abyss made him decide to try and make use of this opportunity to befriend the War God. Maybe that way he'd have some protection when the darkened Luo Binghe came after him looking for vengeance...

He didn't know when his efforts began to pay off, but little by little, Liu Qingge began to make little noises while he talked, little 'mn's to say he was paying attention, even letting out one or two words to comment on a specific thing Shen Yuan had said. And so, little by little, Shen Yuan got to know the implacable lord of Bai Zhan, and what he found out was... that he liked the man. The few times he'd managed to make him say more than a few words had shown him to be someone blunt and honest, a welcome change from the flowery words he was forced to exchange with others in discussions and the like. He also had a dry wit that had made him laugh more than once, and an intelligence that didn't line up with the 'all brawn no brains' archetype of character he was supposed to be.

So yes, he'd started to become more and more comfortable around his martial sibling, and the sentiment must have been mutual because their time together began to become longer and longer, to the point where it wasn't strange for Shen Yuan to offer him tea and snacks afterward as he ranted to him about his day.

Shen Yuan felt they were genuinely becoming friends, and that felt good for reasons beyond using his shidi as protection. He had few friends in this new world he found himself in, and honestly while talking to Airplane was great to reminisce about their world, a good friend like Liu Qingge was a godsend. Even though he had to make sure he wasn't acting too out of character, having someone who listened to him and genuinely seemed to like his company... well, it felt good.

Shen Yuan was very happy with the situation.

---

"Welcome, Liu-shidi." Shen Yuan greeted with a smile when his martial sibling appeared at the door at his usual time.

"Mn," came his customary answer, but before Shen Yuan could make another move, Liu Qingge frowned and asked, "Are you okay? You look exhausted."

"Ah, well." Shen Yuan said with a sigh as his smile morphed into a tired expression. He motioned his martial sibling to get in and went to make some tea as he continued. "Today was the day the youngest disciples began learning advanced spiritual techniques. The results were... not good." He let out another sigh. "Honestly, had I known they would be this unruly with the lessons, I would have waited a few more years..."

Liu Qingge didn't say anything, but his expression showed a mix of worry and understanding as Shen Yuan began ranting about what had happened, not stopping even when the tea was ready and they were in their customary places, Liu Qingge behind him with his palms on his back infusing his meridians with a steady flow of qi.

The tiredness of the day mixed with the soothing feeling of the qi circulating between them, made Shen Yuan lean more weight than usual into those warm palms at his back. To the point that when they were done and Liu Qingge lowered his arms, probably not having noticed the added weight, Shen Yuan toppled back into a warm, firm chest with a startled yelp.

“Ah, I'm so sorry shidi," he began to apologize, his head tilting upwards to look at his shidi. "I'm just ti-”

He didn't know what happened, at first. There was a soft sensation on his lips, his eyes locked with Liu Qingge's clear ones which suddenly looked startled a panicked, and then his shidi was shoving him (gently) off and getting out of his house in a rush. It was only after a few seconds of staring at the door in bewilderment that the situation finally processed.

His face then promptly burst into flames.

'I- oh my God, what- seriously?! I know this is a novel but how- why- this isn't a shojo manga! How-' He screamed in his mind as he buried his face in his hands. What he had felt on his lips were his shidi's lips. When he looked up, Liu Qingge had looked down, and their faces had been at an angle perfect for their lips to brush.

Wasn't that something that only happened in stories??

Suddenly a flash of a memory invaded his mind, of one of his hands in a chiseled chest as the other buried itself in silky hair, a tied-up Liu Qingge looking up at him with a reddened face-

'NOPE!'

Shen Yuan shook his head and decided that this was the perfect moment to take his students from this morning and try the techniques again. They needed more training after all! He couldn't let them sully the image of his peak! And this was in character with the perfectionist scum villain, so maybe this will get him more points!

And cleaning up their messes would surely tire him out enough that he won't be able to think about this anymore.

tee tee rants (pt. 1)

In shadows cast by sorrow's shroud,

A tale of pain, untold aloud.

Silent whispers, secrets veiled,

In depths of grief, my heart impaled.

A father's passing veiled in night,

Buried in soil, out of sight.

Betrayed by kin, a dagger's twist,

In ignorance, my heart desist.

No farewell in the mournful air,

No chance to grieve, no time to spare.

Lost in the void of secrets kept,

A daughter's tears, in silence wept.

My mother's own words, a bitter sting,

Revealed the truth of burying.

A cruel deceit, a wound so deep,

In shadows where my sorrows creep.

Betrayal's touch, a heavy hand,

The ache of loss, I can't withstand.

Forgotten in the final breath,

Left alone in the grip of death.

Oh, father dear, in earth's embrace,

Lost in time, without a trace.

Anger burns, my heart a pyre

Consumed by rage, a funeral fire.

never would i have thought that i'd be going through this by myself. it hurts because his birthday was just yesterday and all of this had to unravel on his birthday. so thank you, for showing me what your true colors are.. disown me, don't consider me family or anything like that. i'm the one who got what y'all want :) yall aint getting that either.

#tee tee rants #jamarrseternalsunshine

[pebblysand]

okay, i'm going on a rant and i might make enemies but honestly this has been brewing inside me for weeks and i can't hold it in anymore.

i've seen a lot of content lately (and this is no one in particular, just a general trend) of people getting mad when fanfic writers 1) try to monetise their craft and 2) try to link their ko-fi/patreon/what-have-you to ao3. the general consensus seems to be that this endangers ao3 as a platform, that these "gen z-s" who aren't scarred by anne rice don't know the risks they're taking, that everyone will get sued, etc.

now, for the record, i do not put my own ko-fi in my a/n-s because a) i do want to respect the rules and, b) i don't really need to make money from ff, but:

i wish people would mind their own fucking business sometimes. if someone wants to take the risk to monetise their work because they need to, then that is their risk to take, not yours. stop acting as though Money Is The Devil. money allows people to put a roof over their heads and food on the table. i've always found it sort of ironic that ao3 keeps lamenting every year about their struggles re:staff turnover and lack of diversity when only very fortunate people with a lot of time on their hands can actually afford to dedicate hundreds of hours of their time to allow them to function. not everyone can afford to work/do art for free. and, sure, we can all agree capitalism is bad but also that is the world we live in. you want to change it? revolt. have a revolution. don't report people to a fucking website.

this is tied to my first point but when it comes to links on ao3 specifically, just because AO3 has been the best site so far, doesn't mean it cannot be questioned ever. for the record, i love ao3. i think it's a great website. it's a fantastic idea. but, after spending an evening looking through their public accounting (yeah, i'm ✨fun✨ like that), i have loads of questions about the hundreds of thousands of dollars they seem to be hoarding year on year and refusing to reinvest to "keep it safe". ao3 as a website are extremely risk-averse in their functioning. that is their ethos. and, it can be a good thing (i'm not denying that) but that can also be a bad thing. we should at least be allowed to publicly debate certain decisions without being called "traitors" who want to bring the website down. it's healthy to debate.

for the love of jesus, mary, joseph and all of the people of jerusalem, stop telling people that if they make money off fanfic they will get sued and die. first of all, the legality of the monetisation of fanfiction is a lot more complicated than tumblr discourse makes it out to be. i don't want to go into too much detail because i have a life but know that: just because you monetise, doesn't mean you will get sued (and lose). at the same time, just because you do not monetise doesn't mean you won't. since these people love quoting anne rice as an example, i will say this: the people who got cease and desist letters, as far as i know, were not monetising. that is because monetisation is one of four factors related to the fair use exception, not The Only One. this is me making an educated guess here but i suppose that when they refuse to monetise, ao3 is actually just protecting itself and its users (again, that ngo, risk-averse strategy). they are not only leveraging that in a potential fair use argument, they are also taking a gamble that the lack of monetisation will discourage lawsuits. this may come as a shock but very few sane people sue each other for no money. it is thus safer not to monetise fanfiction, but not safe. making people believe in that dichotomy is misleading.

building on the above, i think the misunderstanding here comes from the fact that ao3 has become so mainstream and has outdone itself so much that the use of it has superseded its primary purpose. ao3 sees itself as an archive first and foremost, not as a reading tool/content host. its purpose is the safekeeping of History, which is why it's so risk-averse. but, that might not be what we need anymore as a collective. i don't know. but the idea that AO3 is going to get sued and disappear immediately if people start profiting from fanfic is flimsy at best. ff.net runs ads and monetises, so do tumblr and wattpad. they're fine. yes, it is a more difficult position to defend, but not an impossible one. tumblr even lets you put your fanfiction behind a paywall if you want, and the money transits through them. sure, that means that their terms of service push the responsibility onto you to respect copyright laws and defend yourself if you get sued (it's obviously a very different business model) but it is a thing. the fear-mongering about the doomsday of ao3 if anyone at all sought to question their system is ridiculous.

which brings me to my next point: stop blaming this on gen z. who allegedly don't remember what it was like "before," when we all swam in a sea of cease and desist letters and fanfiction websites were collapsing left, right and centre. this is not the first time i make this point online but why are we, millennials, turning into our parents, questioning young people's capacity for intelligent reasoning? even if the above was a realistic picture of the 00s, it was twenty years ago. times have changed. fanfiction has become democratised. we do not know what would happen if people started earning money off fanfiction. we don't know that they would get sued. if they did get sued, we don't even know what would actually happen because very few fic-like cases have been litigated. so let's just step back and let people do what they want.

lastly, a lot of people seem to think that bringing money into fanfic (even the smallest amount) would ruin their enjoyment of it, and would ruin the whole medium altogether. i understand this, i feel it sometimes myself. but, that's sort of a me problem, isn't it? we are projecting our own issues about how we feel money would decrease our enjoyment of fanfic onto other people. but that's for them, not us, to decide. to each their own.

and, bonus point: this is HP specific but if you are one of those people who only buys merch off etsy creators because you don't want JKR to profit and then scream at fanfic creators for trying to monetise, you are making literally no logical sense.

which is all to say: the conversation about the monetisation of fanfiction is a fascinating one, and a very complicated and nuanced one. there is no black and white. i have doubts myself and i have been thinking about these things for a long time. i do still feel very uneasy about the idea of the exploitation of someone else's property by another without their consent. it's tough. but i think it's important to sometimes get off our high horses and see both sides of a story, and feed intelligent discourse, not fear-mongering.

#rantover, thanks for coming to my ted talk.

[palestinalibre]

As an Indian, I could relate to the humour of the show as well. We have similar talk shows over here. Anglo-centric culture is always so "proper", and I could go on a rant here about cultural aspects of colonialism but I will desist. You get the point.

oh please come rant about cultural aspects of colonialism whenever you want

#but yeah you get it anon #I often found it so interesting and even a bit comforting how ''''''third world countries'''''' can relate in so many aspects despite the #cultural differences #just for the fact of having a similar history under colonialism #in the past and today #with this by no means I intend to romanticise colonialism lol but I do find some comfort or feeling of understanding when I'm talking to #friends from india or north africa #to just say some #and we share similar experiences about a lot of things #it's crazy #anon #ask

[hanorganaas]

rant time

gonna do a little venting because what was supposed to be a fun day going to moulin rouge, ended up being cancelled due to a really toxic situation so as ridiculous as it sounds i am gonna need hugs and reassurance right now cause im mentally being drained from it today and just need to scream into the void.

so the other person involved twisted the story to me being the perpetrator rather than the other way around but basically was i became friends with this person in the online Moulin Rouge fandom on twitter thinking hey it could lead me to a group of people to go to the show with. Cause isn't that what online fandom is about? About a couple of weeks of talking she basically gave me what I thought was an invitation to go to Moulin Rouge with her and her friends. Because she basically didn't inform said friends I was coming and it ended up being such an embarrassing situation to me.

She also said some wacky things about her relationship with cast members (she basically claimed they invited her to hang out and they were friends), so between her putting me in such an uncomfortable situation and that I was so turned off so I blocked her. She was so angry she basically started spreading lies. She basically used the fact I tried to make friends (none underage mind you) and my age to say I was a pervert and a creeper. And she basically managed to turn the whole fandom against me, mocking my hyperactive traits at the show. Despite taking precautions she still did this for at least 2 months, even going far as putting my face on her page and telling people to mock me. She even went as far as saying I stalked Aaron Tveit when I took a pic of him at stage door. I had to get a lawyer I worked with to send a cease and desist order to her cause it affected my mental health and physical health too in addition because I felt like I was going to be harassed (My PCOS symptoms exaspeated cause the stress took so much energy). She has since stopped and wrote what I thought was really a condensending apology note when she sent back the acknowledgment, but I am still nervous and traumatized by the situation. What is even more awful people treated her like she was victim, telling her poor baby when she was engaging in toxic behavior.

I went to go see Moulin Rouge 2 weeks ago, and I remember jumping out of my seat when a fellow fan I have been talking to came to say hi and introduce herself because I thought it was that woman or one of her friends. I felt so bad when I acted scared and stuttered because she was so nice to do that. But honestly the feeling I was being watched is gonna linger for a while.

The most unfortunate causualty of this all is I had to exchange my ticket to see Derek Klena tonight. I had been looking forward to it since December, but when I found out the woman who bullied me into a nervous breakdown because she wants to be the queen bee of a silly broadway show, i was so terrified to go. I feared her making a move, I feared her sitting next to me...I feared her looking for me and telling all her friends how much of a freak I am. I know I did the right thing because when I see Derek Klena for the first time again I want to enjoy it and not worry for my safety. I have not been physically well as well with PCOS, so it would have been too much with my full time job.

But I am so angry she is going. I am so angry she is going to be there absorbing the wonderful energy and excitement. I wanted the same experience I felt seeing Aaron come back. I am so angry she is gonna have a good time tonight, with still no remorse and no consequence and I am missing out. I want to so badly divert back into the old me go on her twitter and say, "have a good time tonight cunt, because i am missing out because of you" and say all these vicious things but I am holding restraint. What is gonna do, its gonna give her the ammo "look at crazy Nor and her neurodivergent quirks she hates herself for her". There's nothing I could do, but it still hurts like hell.

It was really the last thing I wanted with all the hell I am going through, family issues, internalized abelism, and dealing with chronic illness while trying to transition my career. I was hoping tonight would distract me but -sighs- I am gonna take care of myself because its the best I can do.

The only silver lining is I decided to get a ticket to see Moulin Rouge on May the 4th (I thought why not go on star wars day cause nothing bad ever happens on star wars day). I ended up getting an even better seat than I was supposed to get for tonight. (Litterally Derek is gonna drunkenly walk in front of my face during Roxanne and I am stoked) so at least theres that.

Anyway if you could send some good vibes today that will be great but thanks for letting me vent.

If anyone needs a break from royal drama then may I recommend Vanderpump Rules drama on Bravo?

To explain what’s happening using a metaphor: Chandler and Rachel are having an affair. Rachel broke off her engagement with Ross and Chandler was going to leave Monica for Rachel. Chandler and Rachel were going to tell Monica about the affair, and Chandler was going to break up with her, at the opening of Monica’s new restaurant. Joey knew about the affair and was helping Chandler and Rachel hide it by pretending that he was the one dating Rachel.

Monica found out about the affair by seeing a video Rachel sent Chandler of her finger-banging herself while Rachel and Phoebe were on vacation together across the country. Monica called Rachel to confront her, then sent the video to Phoebe, and Phoebe got so angry she punched Rachel and Rachel got a restraining order against Phoebe.

Ross had no idea all this was happening and he’s happy in his new relationship with Charlie but he’s got some anger issues he’s self-medicating with alcohol. Janice has sided with Monica and Phoebe and is basically angry-trolling Rachel all over social media about the affair, which has pissed Rachel off and had her Mickey Mouse lawyers send a cease and desist to Janice but Janice went on a social media rant about it, said some iconic things, and is now merching swag with some of the quotes she said.

Meanwhile, Monica is still opening that new restaurant, a sandwich shop, but she’s partnering with Phoebe now with Tom Selleck as an advisor/mentor. And everyone is going to the coffee shop to get all the tea and commentary from Gunther.

Chandler = Tom Sandoval

Rachel = Rachel / Raquel

Monica = Ariana

Joey = Tom Schwartz

Phoebe = Scheana (the puncher) / Katie (the sandwich shop co-owner)

Janice = Lala

Ross = James

Tom Selleck = Lisa Vanderpump

Gunther = Andy Cohen, Stassi, Kristen, and Jax

Look up #scandoval on twitter and social media.

And the best / cringey part is all this is going down while the show was taping, is about to tape their season reunion, and is gearing up to tape the next season. The current season, which has already wrapped and is in the can, is being totally re-edited with footage the producers realized in hindsight is about the affair. They’ve tacked on another extra episode specifically to deal with the affair and the fallout, and they’re redoing some of the confessionals.

The reunion, which is being shot in 2 weeks, is going to be LIT.

Hrod’s awake, time for Mothra. The Queen of the Monsters is not exactly a fan of how some groups have taken to worshipping her, especially the methods of the fertility cults about her (even Tiamat nearly gets sick). But, the only ones that actually make her mad are the sacrificial cults. Monster X has the unfortunate job of translating Mothra’s rant regarding how stupid, disrespectful and horrible they are, and how they should cease and desist. (Got a headache, so sorry if this isn’t as good)

(No worries, nonnie!)

At certain intervals, Mothra's rant devolves into unintelligible shrieking, forcing Monster X to ad-lib based on the general theme of Mothra Is Very Displeased With Your Cult Nonsense. This leads to the sacrificial cultists being shamed by not one, not two but technically three gods.

"I mean, I don't know what you bell ends were thinking," Monster X deadpans over the radio. "Maybe this was lost in translation for me, but at exactly which point did you see 'Giant Benevolent All-Loving Mother Moth Goddess' and think it would be a BRILLIANT idea to start making sacrifices to her?"

Behind Monster X, Mothra's getting to the point where she's so mad it actually seems like she's about to cry. Now the cultists are especially terrified because now Monster X is leaning in with both eyes glowing red with anger, the radio screaming like a pig being slaughtered.

"NOW YOU'VE GONE AND MADE HER UPSET! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW? IS THIS WHAT YOU WANTED, CLAIMING TO KNOW THE WILL OF A GOD?! EVEN MY OWN CULTS ARE SMARTER THAN THIS. GET OUT OF MY SIGHT! YOU DISGUST ME."

Watching Ghostbusters 2, and this judge is wiiilding. The boys basically commit fraud and break Cease and Desist Orders. And this madlad goes on an insane rant about how he wants to reach back to a purer justice and have them burned at the stake. What a Legend

the way that you very obviously send yourself anons makes me giggle

the last 4 or 5 asks except the "what's my type", and "selfie" where from me. I found it interesting that I could send myself asks instead of . As pathetic as it is, I needed to talk myself out of the last two stressful days. These are the ones I asked myself.

I needed to vent so I asked these three questions for myself because my goodness, did I want to cry all day today and do nothing but wait till they were going to help me. I don't like feeling like I have to depend on people and wait until they find it fitting to do so. Even if it was just going to be me waiting till 2pm to replace the battery. I wanted to feel useful and so I took the battery out myself and walked to Walmart auto shop and boom. I'm really glad I did that. I got triggered when they told me that. It took me back to the year I stopped relying on them and just walked everywhere. Did you see how much I rambled and made a big deal out of nothing? Who else was going to accept my rant!?

This one was more of an internal question because of current circumstances and although time has and continues to pass, my affinity towards them will remain. I do stand by tagging them as such because that's honestly how I see them. But it's not because of their body? How do I explain myself without revealing anything but my admiration? Aghh— okay so, obviously they're SEXY AS FUCK ❤️‍🔥. Their body is super adorable with a cute, soft, and gradable tummy/back/hips 💕, their amazing bonkers (sorry if this offended you - but it's true) 💝, thighs to drown in 💘, with a hot juicy ass 💓, and their décolletage/collarbones/shoulders will always have me smitten... But again, that's not why I referred to them as such — To me, they will never be just some sexy body, a "piece of meat", sexual object (ALTHOUGH, I have sexualized about them a bit 😅😐), or an ordinary lewd Tumblr post. Yes, she's a work of art, like sunsets, and reminds of that Bruno Mars locked out of heaven song. However, I've been able to experience just how amazingly awesome they are and see how they are this, as they deal with that and this, and all while being THAT, which to me is one of, if not the most important role? How they're able to deal with all of that makes them a gorgeous hot mess, and despite all of it, they still remain endearing, making them the most beautiful girl out there. sigh, I feel as though I can write about them until the universe dies out. And I'll keep writing afterwards. Anyways, That's why I tag them that way. That being said, because of circumstances, it did make me feel rude and creepy hyping them up yesterday since I don't know if it's okay to do so. I was actually scared and worried about receiving a "cease and desist" dm. So that's why I sent myself that ask: is it okay for me to still hype and woo over? Am I doing this wrong? I hope this made sense.

That being said, that's me 👇🏽 every time I see their sexy pics and I'm not one bit ashamed to admit it.

The Washington ask is just me being excited but having no one else to express my excitement about. I should have just posted an update on it, I just got hooked up with the whole "wait, I can send myself asks?" Thing. Anyways, I am excited and scared about my visit over there. A lot of cars are going to be honking at me and I might be stopped by the popo because I'll most likely be driving too slow :/

It feels so refreshing to be honest about this. Yes, I'm extremely pathetic for doing so, but I'd rather talk to myself into madness than bother anyone.

I'm embarrassed, but glad to see you got amused by me being a loser. I was going to stop sending myself asks now that I got caught, but I'll keep it going here and there just to keep you giggling 👍🏽 It feels like you know me well enough to know which are the ones I'll send myself ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (not anytime soon tho)

Okay, take care anon 😊😊

#asks #i am pathetic #oof #i apologize if this is tmi #but context matters to me and i used this ask as opportunity to just be plain honest about it
