I’m kind of glad somebody asked already about if one of the smiling critters is trans because I was confused if you were just typing Nico to implying that Nicole is trans, or it was just a shorter way to type it

NOW this is more of a language error on my part, sorry! I mean, 'm hispanic, so the way i say Nico is probably not the same way how you all said it. For me, Nico is a female nickname (i know someone who name is Nikita and i use the nickname Nico for her), and 'cause Alba is also from a hispanic background, she use this nickname with Nicole.

So no, the only trans hc i catch in the gang is Nell.

Debunking “The Yoga Certificate” Conspiracy

I can’t believe I’m spending my Sunday evening discussing this, but misinformation is my pet peeve, and this subject happens to overlap with passions of mine, specifically photography and photo-editing. So, allow me to use my expertise in those areas to refute the post that is going around the fandom claiming Alba photoshopped her yoga course certificate. Even if you’re fully onboard with the whole “they’re just PR” argument, I’d recommend hearing me out, so that you don’t look silly and undermine your own credibility by repeating an easily disproven claim.

Debunking the first argument: “The instructor’s name is edited off the certificate.”

This is based off of a misinterpretation of flash photography and how that impacts the color of an image. Here is the photo that Alba uploaded:

The blog who started this conspiracy (which I can’t tag, as they blocked me after I reblogged their earlier post) cropped the photo of the certificate and circled an area like so:

Yes, there is a slight color difference in that part of the photo. The only problem is, there are color differences throughout the photo, because of a phenomenon called illuminant metamerism. This is just a fancy a way of saying that the color throughout image will appear differently depending on the type and amount of light shining on it. When taking a close-up photo of an object with flash, the light from the flash affects how the lens captures the color. This is because of how the light bounces off the photographed object. The effect varies, depending on the focal length, angle, and texture of the object. It many cases, this kind of metamerism can create subtle splotches of different coloring throughout the image, like so:

So, no, the deceptively cropped photo is not proof of editing. It is proof of flash photography. Next...

Debunking the second argument: “Her name is layered over the white line meaning [it’s] placed over it using editing. It aint [sic] written directly on it.”

Again, sorry, incorrect. First of all, this user (with assistance from @nancydrewwouldnever​) claims to have “delayered” the image to prove it was edited. That’s an immediate giveaway that photo editing is not their area of expertise. (No offense.) You cannot “delayer” a JPG or PNG file. If layers were indeed added to the image, you could only discern those layers if you have one of two files: 1) the original .PSD, .IND, or. .AI file that can be opened and manipulated in Adobe Creative Suite or another editing software; or 2) an original PDF file that you’re manipulating in Adobe Acrobat. Instagram stories do not allow for PDF or raw file uploads, so there is no way to “delayer” them, even if they had been edited. Now that that’s out of the way, let’s take a look at the name:

You can see by looking at the “B” and the stems of the “a’s” in Alba’s name that there is some ink bleed from the letters, i.e. the Sharpie or writing implement smudged a bit, creating a blue halo effect from the black ink. And of course the letter “p” crosses over the white line. That’s not proof of editing - that’s how writing works.

We also know that the black letters/numbers were not edited onto the certificate because the blur and pixelation of that lettering is similar to that found on the serif-type white lettering. Using the other blog’s example for a moment, see how their edited-on black lettering has comparatively sharp, crisp edges (for the record, they chose that name, I did not):

It follows then that Alba couldn’t have taken a photo of someone else’s certificate and edited in her information, as the levels of pixelation across the lettering wouldn’t match in that case.

Finally, there are other points that make this conspiracy nonsensical, and they don’t even require knowledge of photo editing:

As the blog acknowledges themselves, the other instructors in the course referred to Alba as a teacher in their Instagram comments. What reason would they have to lie? Do you genuinely think, using all your common sense has to offer, that random normies from Atlanta are “in” on this conspiracy? Genuinely?

People stalked the Yonder website and discovered that Alba taught a “new teacher” class on November 20. Ironically, they tried to use that to prove their previous, now debunked conspiracy that she wasn’t invited to Walt Disney World. Now they’re claiming the yoga studio must’ve received a payoff for her to teach there without a course. As the lingo goes, bffr.

I know some people in this fandom are desperate to believe that Alba is not staying in Atlanta with Chris, that she is just a calculating succubus who pops in for photo ops then spends the rest of her time baiting the fandom. If they believe that, they can justify their nastiness to themselves. They can console themselves that Chris will eventually see her machinations, dump her, and prove them right. I get it - they’ve been proven wrong so many times; and that’s not fun. And here I go, proving them wrong again, though I’m sure they won’t see it that way. They’ll say “hey, Justin!” or “hey, Alba!” or call me a “cleaner.” But they won’t be able to come with facts, because they simply don’t have any.

P.S. Don’t waste time arguing with me on anon. I’ll just delete. If you can’t stand behind your arguments, I’ve got no time for you.

Excuse me but this woman needs to stop calling herself "spiritual" when she's not even a practioner. All she did was doing 3/4 yoga poses to post them on her IG so that everyone could know she's “spiritual” and faking a Yoga certificate. Not to mention her pretty visible tattoo in her pretty visible body part, again, so that people can see she's “spiritual”. This is not how spirituality works and a simple tattoo won't remind you specially when you have it where you cannot see it. At least we knew Chris is Spiritual/Buddhist without him "proving" it to us.

I hate it here because I'm a spiritual person myself and I hate it when spirituality gets used like that for someone to prove something and catch her prey. Alba, I'm looking at you!

Since we have so many Baptista fans trying to defend her and her best friends and saying they’re not vile and racist, take a look here. If you can still defend them and justify this garbage, then you’re part of the problem

#she’s racist #disgusting people #only chasing fame #don’t speak over minority voices #alba baptista is racist and so are her best friends

My OC Roselyn /Clay Beresford song fic Speak now- Taylor Swift

My OC pov - "I am not the kind of girl

Who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion

But you are not the kind of boy

Who should be marrying the wrong girl!"

Roselyn has always been Clay's best friend, but her feelings for him grew stronger as she got older. Unfortunately found out that he was in love with Sam and she tried to be supportive of them as she still cares deeply for Clay as a friend. However she secretly still has feelings for him and she doesn't think Sam is right for Clay and wants to be the one with him, and to love and care for him unconditionally. 💕💔😭

I just cleared Turnabout Academy.

Aristotle Means must have been friends or maybe even roommates with Ambassador Alba from Investigations, because these two and their testimonies were (infuriatingly) similar.

Though this may or may not be the first comic I posted on here, it's been a good long while for me to make and finish a comic. This time, Alba is doing some bonding with the other scarecrows around the maze besides Zardy.

Don't worry, she'll let Jack borrow her acrylic paints until he gets his own set.
