#playing to the crowd

[bixels]

On one hand, really funny that they straight up lied. On the other hand, pretty mean that they straight up lied. But on the third hand, I knew they were never doing HL2AIVR.

#i'm not that invested in hlaivr stuff i watched and enjoyed it years ago but was looking forward to today #i did feel disappointed when i skipped forward and realized “oh this is the whole thing ok” #like the gang knew they were flat out lying to people lol they knew they were hyping up the wrong crowd. rude as hell but funny too #but ya hlaivr was fun because it was spontaneous and everyone had shitty mics and it was improv until it wasnt #hard to do that again without like. #good thing i was rewatching bb clips right before this stream. #playing to the crowd #personal #delete later #i do feel like bb stuff is inherently less fun because there's already a huge established story with all the characters so this feels like #an rp au. versus hl where everyone was basically a blank slate to play off of. but hey that's probably intended. no more meow meows

#playing to the crowd #a beast that can talk

[the-vegetarian-artist]

the PJO fandom working their butts off to find two italian babies in the background only to realize the Easter egg is Nico calling for Bianca around the 12:3 mark.

#literally just checked it out #heard Nico calling Bianca twice he sounds so small and it makes me wanna tear up #veggie tells #pjo #pjo series #pjo fandom #pjo spoilers #pjo tv show #percy jackson series #percy jackon and the olympians #percy jackson #nico di angelo #besure to listen CLOSELY i had to play it mutiple times until his voice broke through the crowd jumble

Prompt:

It’s not that Jason forgot, per se.

But between smuggling a toddler out of the League of Assassins, trekking halfway across the world, and finding a suitable hiding place that’s also child friendly… well, it kind of slipped his mind that he’s supposed to be… dead.

Something that comes back to bite him in the ass when he takes Dami out for some ice cream and just so happens to run into non other than Brucie-fucking-Wayne

#look I’ve found a new fave trope and it’s Brucie Wayne having to keep up his act while internally LOSING HIS SHIT #Jason isn’t very into the whole revenge thing here #his mind is 85 parts ‘keep Dami safe’ 5 parts ‘kill joker asap’ and 10 parts ‘avoid bats at any cost’ #Jason doesn’t know who Damian’s father is #dealer’s choice if Jason establishes himself as Dami’s dad or older brother #his build certainly makes him look old enough #if you don’t look at his baby face lol #Jason runs into Brucie and goes straight into survival mode #Damian who is very observant for a toddler immediately clocks Brucie as THREAT based on Jason’s reaction #Brucie blue screens and desperately tries not to lose Jason in the crowd #jason is absolutely trying to lose Brucie in the crowd #while clutching Damian like his life depends on it #for all he knows it does #the visceral terror that your pseudo dad will take away your little brother/baby #Bruce who just wants to know if he’s hallucinating again: W A I T #jason who is terrified of being put in Arkham for killing people: no FUCKING WAY #hm maybe Jason plays the ‘I’m not Jason’ game again #it’s not gonna hold for long #but Bruce absolutely thinks that Damian is Jason’s bio child for a while and he’s on the WARPATH #Jason was sixteen when he died and never showed any interest in dating so literally every red flag is waving in brucie’s mind simultaneousl #or maybe Jason manages to get away and all Brucie is left with is the memory of his supposedly dead son #running away from him #and clutching a tiny kid #prompts #jason todd #batfamily #Damian wayne #batdad #brucie wayne

what’s really ironic about the “just let everyone get infected w covid!! herd immunity!!” arguments now is that letting the virus run rampant through the world has actually achieved the opposite: everyone may get infected, but then they’ll just keep getting infected. delta infections didn’t protect against the original omicron variant. omicron BA.1 doesn’t protect you against BA.2.12.1. none of them really protect you against BA.4 and BA.5. mass infection is not going to create mass immunity, it just means that with every infection you’re rolling the dice on what this unpredictable and very creative virus is going to do to you

#play stupid games (encourage mass infection) win stupid prizes (mass infection... w indefinite reruns)!!! #covidposting at work again bc it really never changes (except for the worse) #don't even get me started on the ppl who originally were just lambasting the herd immunity crowd but now seem totally fine w it #bc 'vAcCiNEs pRoTeCt aGaiNsT sEveRe dIsEaSE' well maybe i don't want to take that risk!! #maybe i don't want to see what an infection will do to me! but thanks for fucking around so that i can find out :// #coronavirus #covid19 #public health #skravler

Thank you all for voting in the poll to decide who was going to be the leader of the band! It turned out to be such a close race!

#poorly drawn mdzs #better drawn mdzs #mdzs #madam lan #A-qing #Band AU #(Reminder that Madam Lan's design inspiration goes to Qourmet!) #Madam Lan may have been the winner per vote count but there were so many strong advocates for A-Qing! #I played around with a few versions of what the 'poll winner' art was going to be and ultimately decided I wanted them both. #As any good theater love knows though - The battle for leadership was a ruse. They *all* get a chance to be featured. #Cooperation was the real end goal! However I do think these two have the best frontman energy of the group. #Or at least 'crowd favourite' energy. I also really loved hearing what people thought their vocal styles would be like! #This was probably one of my favourite polls to do and I love drawing these characters a lot B*) #I'd love to spend a bit more time in this AU so count on me bringing it back. #One thing I keep feeling like I need to redeem myself on is Madam Lan's Translucent skirt. I have *not* done the concept justice yet. #It is such a crack-platonic ship but I want to think Madam Lan and A-Qing would enjoy each other's company. #Possibly also with JYL as well. They can be like mutually beneficial therapy dogs to each other. #Madam Lan never got to see her kids grow up into teenagers after all. She only had sons. Never daughters. #Even if she saw her kids once a month we do know she treated them with so much love and kindness. #She would bite the shit out of YZY for yelling at JYL. What a sight to see. A-Qing would also start biting (for fun).

I know most folks have probably seen this already, but I really need to talk about how insane it is that David mentioned Michael as a possible Doctor on an episode of DW Confidential in 2007.

This was ten years before filming GO season 1, and there was absolutely no reason for David to be saying Michael's name. Julie and Jane did not bring Michael up in any capacity, nor was he specifically relevant to the conversation. Yet of all the names David could have said, out of all the countless UK actors in the business...he said "Michael Sheen."

There is this idea that soulmates are "loud." That it means seeing someone from across a crowded room as music swells dramatically in the background. But soulmates are also quiet. A soulmate can be someone you talk about when no one is listening. Someone you think about and who makes you blush for no real reason at all. Someone who lives in the back of your mind, vibrating at a steady hum that you don't even hear at first.

Until it gets louder.

Until they're suddenly a part of your life in a way you never expected.

Until you can't remember anymore what life was like without them.

From BYT in 2003 to this DW Confidential in 2007 to Good Omens in 2017 on into the present. Call it the invisible red string. Call it Fate. Whatever it is that's between them, I am and will forever be in awe at Michael always being on David's mind (and vice-versa), and how they finally found each other...

#david tennant #soft scottish hipster gigolo #michael sheen #welsh seduction machine #doctor who #doctor who confidential #and now they actually have gazed at each other from across a crowded room #big 'soulmates before they met' energy #sometimes someone comes into your life not when you expected it #but when you needed it most #the way they bring each other up when the other isn't around is everything #cue Kylie's 'Can't Get You Out of My Head' playing somewhere in the distance #saying a lot by saying very little #but i think david is definitely telling us who he is #i don't know if i believe in fate but i believe in them #ineffable lovers #discourse

thanks @puckthisshift for finding this adorable video of almost 3 year old Leon Draisaitl being shy in front of a crowd of his dad, Peter's, fans | Sep 05 1998 (x)

My hot take for today is that anyone who thinks be more chill is cringe hates fun and also missed the entire lesson of the musical

#vio.txt #i saw it live and it was so fun #like it didnt have the slightly to very stuffy vibes more serious shows had and i got to see some serious talent and production #the story is fairly simple and its def absurd and its just a silly fun time!! #george salazar made me cry lmao. also i got stephanie hsu's signature!!!!! its a flex now lmao #the squip entrance also rocks #vpices in my head also made me cry live #bmc #be more chill #i am cringe but i am free!!! #i could tell by the live performance that the performers had more room to play and try fun riffs and things #the audience was ehhh bc it was a younger crowd but tbh older audiences are worse in a different way
