#there is no middle ground

Eddie doesn’t have a driver’s license. He has six fakes, but has never taken the test, and definitely couldn’t pass it if he tried. He can drive, and he knows mostly what the signs mean, but some of them he assumes are just decorative. Eddie brings the kiddos back from a trip to Indy where he had them invent meanings for the pointless signs. The kids mention it the next day. That's when Steve learn that Eddie never really learned how to drive. That afternoon is also when the group learns that Eddie can, in fact, outrun Steve when properly motivated.

utterly obsessed with alex’s description of longing and how it’s captured in fireside

#i love how half the time in interviews he’s stuttering or sitting silently behind his sunglasses #and then other times he comes out with actual poetry like this #there is no middle ground #which honestly #relatable #also #can we take a moment to appreciate matt’s humour at the end #god i love that man #also his earmuffs comment just makes me think of the silly little earmuff comment in my new fic 😭 #arctic monkeys #alex turner #matt helders #am era #am vid #lulu posts

f1 drivers during summer break are either on a mediterranean yacht with their girlfriend or taking a homoerotic nature trek with ten other men

#there is no middle ground #except possibly lando norris who is on a yacht with his girlfriend and his boyfriend and ten other men #f1 #okay valterri and tiffany are in the countryside so they're reverse lando norrising.

opinions on the Lockwood & Co. show are 50% utter glee and 50% unbridled rage and I really don't know how to handle that

#there is no middle ground #lockwood & co #l&co. netflix #they missed so many emotional beats and characterisation but also there was so much that was fucking awesome

I don't see good things for Radovid and Jaskier. Mainly because in the games Radovid is a genocidal bigot and in the books he's the SON of the King of Redania and...12 years old.

In the show, I personally think he's trying to gain Jaskiers trust and suss out his relationship with Geralt to use it against him (Rience did this). Let's look at the examples..

In episode 1 we see Jaskier ask him and Phillipa to destroy Rience and when he leaves Phillipa said he's good at this game.

Acts like a besotted fanboy and knows ALL Jaskiers song (90% of them are about Geralt, including Extraordinary things. That's not about Radovid yall, he's known him for 10 minutes when he performs that song.)

Says all the things Jaskier wants to hear..

Has all the attributes of another man who's special to him. (Geralt)

Is asked by Radovids group to sing about his Witcher.

I am weak and I am wanting..

So, Radovid has sussed out what Jaskiers weakness is... and it's Geralt. And is going to use that against him for information OR Jaskier is going to use fucking the Prince to his advantage.

"Nuetrality has consequences too, Geralt."

Jaskier knows what will happen if Geralt straddles the line. And hey, he was right.

"You should have chosen a side, Witcher."

Maybe he'll use that relationship to his advantage? And that's what kicks off Radovids genocidal tendencies towards the non-humans.

I'm just speculating because I think the romance between those two is helping to further the plot and won't end up like this big love story.

That's just food for thought though 🤷‍♀️

Just saw a post: NMJ wouldn't have died if he'd known and sympathized the struggles JGY went through.

This is why I don't just follow every MDZS blog that comes across my dashboard. This is why I scroll a little bit to see what theire about. Because that kind of deranged take. So basically..if NMJ hadn't looked too deep, if he hadn't noticed the inconsistenties, if he hadn't stood for his own morals and personal brand of justice he would have been fine?

Cause...that worked out so well for Lan Xichen didn't it? The man who learned after years of dedicated friendship that he was just being used? Who learned that his 'dear friend' conspired to set the world up to burn by angering the Yiling Lazou and letting Jin Zixuan socially-intept his way into an early grave. The man that killed his own child. Slaughtered an entire sect for the supposed murder of the child he killed, including down to the children of the sect. And those that survived were given to Xue Yang for experiments.

Seems like letting yourself be taken in by JGY soft wet uwu face only leads you to betraying your personal morals later, but you do betray them. It's just a before or after you've committed genocide.

There are bad takes.

And there are radioactive takes.

I don't think I have to say which one this is.

This is one of the things that we learn through the text of the story. You cannot trust what people tell you. Or sometimes what they show you. If they are acting shifty like they've got something to hide, it's probably because they've got a head in their treasure room.

#jin guangyao #nie mingjue #mdzs #mo dao zu shi #i worry about literacy comprehension if these are the takes ppl are getting #jgy is not a soft uwu wife #hes a psychopathic killer #he would use your protection of him to further his own goals #like he did to lan xichen #or he would have you killed in the worst possible way #there is no middle ground #hes not a good guy

Why am I always on the fence between “relationships are overrated and love is dumb, I don’t need anybody to be happy!” and “where the FUCK is the love of my life????”

I like making ocs, but almost never go into detail on their backstories or who they are beside name and occupation.

Anyhow this is Noah, my newest creation

He's a mercenary, but I'm not sure what weapons he would use yet.

My super-catholic ex-coworker just posted this whole litany about "the REAL Lent" with stuff like "give up on complaining because Jesus likes those with joy in their heart... give up on gossiping... give up on judging others..." stuff like that and like. Nice try gurl but I'm pretty sure you still cannot eat meat until Easter

I have been consistently dismayed at the extent to which "managing" an illness has little to do with how you personally experience it and far more to do with how much of a burden you are on other people

When I am better at managing depression, I still feel miserable, but the people around me like me more

#I have been in agony for the last year #but I know what is causing it and I know that anything I feel compelled to do to make it better will make it worse #and so I just ruminate on it and sit on it #and I am complimented on how much better I am doing #this is management #I am not making it worse with stupid choices #people are pleased #I am still unhappy #we as a species can tolerate two levels of function as it pertains to your interior world #either you are showing no obvious signs of distress and can be expected to work cheerfully at infinite capacity #or you are shattered and have to be put in a hospital and denied all further participation with the species #there is no middle ground

My gender is either:

- bog witch

- gremlin

- comet (the space thing not the reindeer)

- sad ghost

- what

Sometimes they combine into a gender casserole and fuck up my insides.

Whenever I think about/write about Harringrove it’s always 1 of three approaches:

1) Billy is one HORNY motherfucker

2) Fluff, fluff, so much fluff. Cuddles and forehead kisses for my sons

3) The angstiest shit to ever angst

And I love that.
