#so much respect for PT

[thislovintime]

The Monkees, 2001.

“When we meet in a cafe near his home in Connecticut, he checks that the cake he's ordered is alcohol-free, explaining, ‘I’m an alcoholic, and that means once I pick up the first drink, something gets triggered and I have no resistance, so the answer is to not drink at all. I’m 34 years clean and dry now. I was awful when I was drinking, snarling at people.’ Indeed when Peter, Micky and Davy toured the US in 2001, Peter quit early, unable, he said, to put up with ‘the drinking and difficult behavior offstage.’ ‘The truth,’ says Peter now, ‘is that I’m still confused about my own behavior then and I’m not sure that I had all my own faculties at the time, sober or not. The drinking itself was not an issue and if it were, I would not have rejoined them.’ And he’d always found the fame hard to handle. ‘I gave a lot of my money away when I was younger – just left it in bowls around the house and people would help themselves to handfuls of it,’ he says. ‘I wasn’t thinking too clearly at the time and it might have been my low self-esteem, thinking that I didn’t deserve to keep the money, but it wasn’t really that bright, was it?’ he laughs. ‘I mean, there's nothing wrong with giving money away to people, but give it where you can do some good.’” - Daily Mail, article by Lina Das, August 14, 2015

“‘We were getting along pretty well until I had a meltdown,’ [Tork] says. ‘I ticked the other guys off good and proper and it was a serious mistake on my part. I was not in charge of myself to the best of my ability – the way I hope I have become since. I really just behaved inappropriately, honestly. I apologized to them.’ He now says alcohol played only a small role in the group’s problems. ‘I’m sure it played a part, but I cannot honestly say it was anything more than a very slight part,’ he says. ‘It could have been very, very minor. But the main thing was that I had a meltdown and I messed up.’” - Rolling Stone, March 7, 2011

Q: "Your thoughts on being a pop culture icon." Peter Tork: "I have nothing to compare it with. I didn’t have a life other than that life.  I did the best I could. I ran as hard as I could with what I had going. It was a wonderful trip and [I] enjoyed it hugely, and it was a pain in the ass, and I quit. I rejoined and I quit again. If that doesn’t tell you the size of my confusion then nothing will.” - Enigma Online, April 23, 2006

For your rumination: Gale is the *only* companion (besides Jaheira) that approves to "listen to your mom" choices when it comes to Jaheira telling her kids she wants them out of danger.

i am Ruminating, anon. Many Ruminations Are Being Had Right Now.

#gale dekarios #tagging it because it might interest other ppl too #no but seriously thank you for sending me this #i WILL have to go and investigate #i'm doing my canon pt right now and clearly need to take jaheira with me 100% more #and then do an addendum to my gale + his parents meta #gale is a momma's boy and i do mean that in the best and most loving way possible bc he cherishes and respects morena and tara so much #and yes morena and tara co-parent #ch: gale dekarios #vg: baldur's gate 3 #series: baldur's gate #text: asks #bg3 spoilers

i was tired of being so antsy and anxious so i left the house and walked almost 5 miles. this technically broke my PT rules but i was able to consciously engage my core the whole time to keep my back from hurting + my hips from subluxing (thank u 9 days of PT exercises already making a measurable difference) & now i'm taking a hot bath so i am..... Knocking On Wood that i'll be okay. please god.

#my shoulders and hips hurt significantly LESS than they did before i left the house #my legs and feet are just really sore now. #i have my next irl session in a couple days so i'll bring it up then #just like. hey i know patients in my condition should start slow and i do respect that #however. i am a former athlete and my muscles + brain alike Get Very Bad when i don't move. #if i'm GONNA walk for miles. what do u want me to do so i don't fuck myself over. #dignity of risk and all that. i do genuinely feel a lot better. these past couple days of not walking much i've been in SO much pain and SO #stressed out. waow. #this is the most i've walked in a day in Years. also arguably thanks to PT??? #pt tag #exercise tag #autoimmune tag

[desognthinking]

.

#couldn't sleep so i broke open the haunted house au pt 2 doc and went at it a bit #it's shaky and rusty and plotless and so florid that it'll make me cringe later but it's not an empty document! #i don't actually write that much (and haven't since uhh high school nonfic essays) so wow. how do people do it #i guess scribbling sth out is one of those things worth trying if nothing but to gain so much respect and appreciation for writers #you guys rock. what am i doing #to delete

[desperatepleasures]

also kinda wanna reread the caloria arc even tho all the yuuri/flynn stuff makes me queasy lol but I like that flynn is actually kind of a shitty person in the novels

#like the anime tries to pull some of her Redemption Arc vibes from the novels but she does very little in the anime that requires redemption #and i didn't realize how flat her storyline fell in the anime til i read the novels then rewatched the anime #everyone hates novels!flynn but not me because i support women's wrongs #kkm tag #anyway yuuri is an unreliable narrator and i don't think flynn ever returned his feelings like at all. she is a grown ass widow dude c'mon #tbh her at the end being like ohhh we cant be together bc we're each so loyal to our respective countries...like lmao she was letting #him down easy and he bought every word #ugh i feel bad for wolfram in that scene tho. just angrily getting drunk by himself watching his fiance dance with A Woman #...then i think adalbert shows up randomly after that????? idk it's been a while. yeah i need to reread this #the tournament arc is so much more fun in the novels wolfram gets way better characterization as does adalbert #ok ok stop and do your pt exercises doth!!!!

jar jar binks in the phantom menace represented a crucial aspect of star wars at the time—that this movie is still for children. and adult fans’ vicious backlash to his character robbed us of his planned betrayal/villainous arc which would have been equally integral to the theme of lost innocence that all three prequels movies were working towards. in this essay i will—

#it’s interesting retrospectively looking at jar jar as an adult fan #do not get me wrong tpm has a lot of issues partly because it was trying to do too much at once. but it is at its heart a kids movie #and kids still enjoy it. and that was the point at the time and tbh considering its role in the PT it suits it. of course young anakin’s #intro movie would be so childish. that’s the point !! that’s what makes ROTS sting !! #and with jar jar in particular. as a kid. yeah i loved him to death. i thought he was so funny. i did impersonations of him. #like i’m very aware of the PTs flaws and jar jar’s flaws believe me. but i can’t help but feel sad that we never got to see the full plan #like talk abt subversive !! the silly goofy annoying character having an evil lil arc !! that would have fit the prequels narrative so well #ahmed best ​fuck everybody else i respect YOU #anyways.txt

[margaetyrell]

@tolerateit came back stronger than a 90s trend. come on @thenotefromthelocket is time to wake uppp 

#lols <3 so much respect for the both of you though #ftpanonask #pt

[gamerhamlet]

holy f I know they say ppl in my job eat their young but godDAMN is it tru on this unit lmao. not necessarily in a bad way but me and my work wife started at the same time and we’re only night newbies in the past year(!!) to last longer than three months

but also, literally of the night hires have been uhhhhhhhhhh. Bad. And this is just not the place for that

#the ppl here r v v experienced do NOT appreciate ppl fucking w their pts which I respect so much. this is just not the place for it #i gotta say it’s so so so nice to b around only experienced ppl again

[weavingmemories]

For the character bingo, hmm.... I'm gonna be predictable but not TOO predictable and ask for Yusuke, Futaba, and Mishima? ^^

yusuke:

futaba:

mishima:

#robin rambles #i LOVE yusuke so much omg. his arc and its parallels with haru and akechi's particularly is so delicious #i really like how he goes through trying to process everything that happened to him re: madarame #i think about his and akechi's conversation in the thieves den about their respective fathers a lot and how they handle it very differently #i also just love his character so much. he's so silly so sweet and so precious #i could do with seeing more feral grin type yusukes but ... it's okay. their rarity makes them special #futaba has such a WONDERFUL arc and i loveeee her having a palace. #and what that introduces. your cognition can be totally distorted even if you're not a bad person #small slashes mostly because while i have no strong opinions against any ships #i just can't get invested in sh/utaba and su/mitaba ): #i do love yusuke & futaba together though #i also don't think it's wasted potential so much as i would have ADORED the fut/agoro half-siblings dynamic #augh i think about like. the fact that they really just could very well be related all the time #and mishima... MISHIMA my beloved #mostly half checked the 'i'm the only one who's correct' as a joke bc my sisters both can't stand him LOL #i really love mishima. his confidant is so cool. i love that he literally has a corruption arc in canon #and that you can go confront HIS shadow! whereas in most confidants it's like. someone else's that's harassing them #i also just have so much love in my heart for the fact that he and what he represents really saved the PT at the end #i'm always so upset that you can't be nicer to him. mishima rights! #thank you for the ask <3 #answered #dangerousfantasist

Rant

Started medical posting 2 mths back and honestly it's so damn exhausting

But it's natural tho. Medical dept had always been the busiest in any hospital. And it wouldn't hv been much of an issue had the guy incharge not be a complete dickhead

#random #never before i felt so much rage against someone #got a panic attack this morning and took alprazolam #fucker had the nerve to tell me to 'settle the panic attack and come to work' #you even know what a panic attack is? #do you even know what alprazolam is? #prolly never even touched midazolam in his life #we have intubated pts all the fucking time in ward and dude don't even know what a fucking diazepam does #thanks to this fucker my adjustment synd turns into a full blown depression #i took meds at 6.30am and woke up at 1pm #fucker thinks panic attack is like stubbing your toe against a table foot #god i wish he fall of a stair and break his neck #last time i woke up from sleep and can't even move myself off my bed #fucker thinks it's a nonsense excuse #fuck it i want to run him over with my car #fucker may be a doctor but he don't deserve any respect whatsoever #i want to break his neck #my brain and me

Peter Tork, 1970s, 1990s, and 2016.

“To the outside observer, I’m sure it looked as though I had succumbed to the extremities of a given culture. To me, I simply exhibited moderate good sense. Basically, I lived at a poverty level, scratching for odd jobs. I wore a beard, my hair was past my shoulders, and I was working in a restaurant, singing folk songs and waiting tables. I was playing piano and was in and out of various rock groups. I played lead guitar for a rock group called Osciolla [sic]. No records. I was in the bass section of the Fairfax Street Choir, a thirty-give member vocal group. I also fronted a group of my own and tried to make a demo, but it didn’t go anywhere. I had a job offer to come out here to Venice. I also worked as a high school teacher. The mass media has a tendency to distort. As long as capitalism remains the underpinning of society, what is good will always take a back seat to what will sell. General Motors isn’t concerned with making a quality automobile. Sears isn’t concerned with offering a quality television set. All that counts in a capitalistic society is selling. And to the mass media’s way of thinking, a picture of Peter Tork as a so-called ‘burned-out hippie’ with a beard and long hair implies a hopeless case who can’t lift his hand to his face to get his razor up and who has no interest except in stealing to support his drug habit. If that’s what sells, they’ll print that. The truth of the matter is, my primary concern was and is self-realization in a social setting.” - Peter Tork, Blitz!, May/June 1980

Review: “What are your earliest memories about how music engaged your interest imagination; and at what point did you realize that you wanted to pursue it seriously?” Peter Tork: “I'm not sure it ever did, but let me put it this way. I was always drawn to music as entertaining and diverted away from it for various reasons. As a matter of making a conscious commitment to music that happened in my 50s - long after the breakup of The Monkees. But music always held a fascination for me and I always pursued it. Anybody who knows about my Greenwich Village folk days also knows I was engaged into pursuing interesting arrangements and how to go about things musically, always without a conscious sense of commitment to the music that I did create. Not until much later in life can I say that I made a real decision about how to pursue music in my life, which is kind of funny.” [...] Review: “What/s the most challenging component involved with keeping things on an even keel in the music business?” Tork: “Oh, you're talking a couple of different things. A career takes dedication on the part of many different people. One needs people to believe in one and I cannot muster a career on my own hoof. I don't have what it takes to book shows, make arrangements, and tend to all the details, so it takes a village basically. But in terms of staying personally balanced in the midst of showbiz requires a particular little extra something - the ability to rely on something or someone or some process that I'm included in. In other words it's not me and everything else but a process that I'm included in and can rely upon. Sometimes this works mechanically and sometimes its transcendent; but its got to be greater than my solo self and I need to have something on my side - friends who have insight and a collection of people that I can turn to for spiritual uplifting or a joke here or there. Nobody does this alone, but that's true about everything as far as I'm concerned.“ - Review Mag, May 27, 2016

demon slayer hcs: motherly hashira!reader x the hashira pt 2

characters: fem!reader x muichiro, sanemi, mitsuri, obanai

AN: this is a pt 2 for the request from @danielle-marie

READ THE FIRST PART HERE

MUICHIRO

I LOVE THIS BABY SM U DONT UNDERSTAND

he's the hashira that ur most comfortable around

he was a hashira before u

but u get promoted and its an instinct

child.

must protect.

at first he probably gets annoyed by you

he's not used to someone caring for him the way that u do

but then one day ur sent on a long mission

maybe a few weeks long

and he finds himself missing something

of course he has no idea what it is that he's missing something

he completely forgot about u

but when you get back to the butterfly estate and he sees u

it clicks

he remembers

he missed you

he missed your overprotective nature

he missed your soft caring voice

he missed the way that you brush and style his hair

he REALLY missed that ^

walks up to u, grabs ur hand and tugs u away

doesn't care if you were talking to someone

and doesn't say a word

brings you to his favorite cloud watching spot with a tight grip on your hand

makes you sit down

and lays his head in ur lap

stop im squealing and kicking my feet from the cuteness

SANEMI

my guyyyyyy

have i ever told yall that i love him?

only in every single thing i post

anyways

he HATES you at first

lmfao rip u

your shy and quiet nature reminds him of giyuu

and if theres one person sanemi can't stand

its giyuu

therefore he don't fw u

and doesn't pay u much attention

UNTILLLLL

he witnesses u pulling genya by the ear to the infirmary after a mission

and telling genya tf off for pulling som stupid shit during the mission

+100 respect right there

not only are u actually talking

but ur screaming??

at his brother??

and taking care of him at the same time?????

my guy is lucky if he doesn't pop a boner right there lmfaooo

starts paying more attention to u after that

and is noticeably a lot nicer and calmer around you

will blush beet red and deny tf out of it if the other hashira comment abt his change of heart

but def develops a soft spot for u

MITSURI

SWEETEST HUMAN BEING TO EVER EXIST EVER

she loves u

ofc she does she's the love hashira

but in mitsuri's mind how could she not absolutely ADORE u

not only are you breathtakingly beautiful in her eyes

but she sees the way u interact with the younger slayers

how u genuinely care for everyone's wellbeing

if she wasn't looking for a husband she would wife u tf UP

she still might lol

mitsuri is gonna go out of her way to become friends with you

she's inviting u to her estate for girl's night with shinobu

she's dragging u along to her favorite restaurant for lunch

she's inviting u to join her at the hot springs to relax

she really enjoys ur presence

even if ur shy she thinks ur very soothing to be around

she loves when you do her hair!!

and when u cook for her??

mitsuri alrdy eats a lot

but if u made the food for her??

girl is not letting a CRUMB go to waste

loves the way u take care of everyone

especially when u take care of her

10/10 would recommend a mitsuri

OBANAI

someone pls love this man

he needs it so bad

so dude had SHIT parents

like bad bad

so when he sees ur interactions with the younger slayers he's prob a lil put off at first

like ma'am?

this is the demon slayer corps??

we don't have time for all ur mothering and coddling

but then he's injured on a mission

and waiting in the infirmary for shinobu to show up and patch him up

and then u bust through the doors???

confused asf

shinobu is on a mission and you've been helping out in the infirmary

so looks like ur the one taking care of him today

and turns out his injury is bad enough to land him an extended stay in his lil hospital bed

and after a few days of u taking care of him

with ur red face and soft stuttered words

he learns that you're not so bad

and he actually enjoys being around you

and being taken care of

won't voice this tho

but when Aoi comes in to give him his meds one day he gives himself away by accident

with a

"where's y/n?"

he's a blushing grumbling mess after that lol

after he discharged best believe the next time he gets injured he's not even going to the infirmary

he's hunting u tf down

nobody else gets to take care of him except YOU

and thats period.
