#y'all should check out my twitter I post more drawings there!!! | Explore Tumblr Posts and Blogs

For those wondering where I have been....

Videogames are one hell of a drug, kids.

Fr tho, I know the uploads here have slowed down considerably. I apologize for that, and I wanted to let you know there is a reason behind it. No, the reason is not that I am stopping to draw, or even stopping the IZ art.

Truth is, for the past couple of months I've been branching out a bit with my art, doing a lot of stuff that I feel like wouldn't be of particular interest to my current Tumblr/Twitter audience (is videogame fanart of non-humans, basically) and I'm not looking to pivot away from IZ art just yet so I rather leave this blog barren of art for most of the month rather than posting the new/different stuff and attracting a whole new audience. I am still posting it all on my Patreon and Discord tho, and also recently started posting it online on a new(ish) account. You can check it here if you think you'd still be interested, but these pics are not coming over to my main T/T accounts. Here is a preview of what's in there, just this once.

About my IZ stuff, it will still be coming, altho I do have to divide my attention between commissions/patreon like the usual (and a good bunch of the new commissions I'm getting recently are of the new type that I can't post here) so it takes a backseat most of the time, but I do make sure to leave those as a Patreon option to vote on every month so we can at least have one IZ thing assured to be coming.

The PT AU is still not something I'm willing to drop, but it is very much still stuck for me. I would need a lot more free time (and willpower not to fill that free time with fekin videogames again) that I currently have to properly sit down and work on the problem, so I'd have to plan on doing it in a month where I'm not constantly panicking about if I made enough money to get thru the next month or not - which is what happens most months. If you're all still okay with getting non-canon offshoots of pics and comics from the AU please let me know and I'd be more than happy to provide, but my brain just screams at me that nothing but Official Story Continuation will be worth it for any of y'all so I've been kinda feeling bad about drawing any of it at all, tbh.

Other than that I'm p much always on Discord, I frequent the Patreon one and the side one daily and the Weekly Streams on Picarto are always still a thing (Friday and Saturday at 9 pm Central, always at that time even if I often forget to announce them here), plus the other events like the extra Patreon stream and the movie nights/series nights on the fan site. My Twitter is also still there, and I wanna try uploading more stuff to Insta once I figure out how to get the darn desktop uploader to work as it should.

Some projects coming down the pipeline:

-Irken Picrew Maker, with an absolute ton of options for customization! (well along the way done, just on hold for now while I figure out how in the hell Picrew works)

-More CZ content!

-Finish uploading all the PT AU parts to AO3

-Side IZ comics/pics

-Some new sticker designs for my Redbubble page!

-More open request streams!

-And of course, new PT writing (be patient w me pls :c)

Thank you so much for sticking around this long, if you have, and for bearing with my impossible to predict upload schedule. I really, trully appreciate you all <3

#invader zim #my art #important #update #my stuff #ponytail dib au #not gonna pin this so i wanna put it under all the popular tags on my blog #mostly cuz I don't yet trust the new audience of the other art #to b ok w what I do here #so i rather they not find the connection easily #even tho i refuse to change my name in between all the accs lmao #still #if uhave recently followed me just because i reblog a lot of funny memes #hi #ia m actually an artist lol #shocker #alright back to my cave

Paint My Spirit Gold

Dukeceit Week Day 2: Green/Yellow

Fans of the YouTubers "Deceit" and Remus "The Duke" Sanders start to suspect that maybe, just maybe, the two of them are more than simple internet pals.

AO3 Link: [here]

Word Count: 2187

Warnings: n/a

@dukeceitweek <3

[ID: A screenshot of a Twitter post by user @CallMeDukie. It features a watercolor-style painting of a snake. The snake appears to be made of melting chocolate, and there is a large bite taken out of its tail. Cherries and jam are leaking out of the snake at the bite wound. The snake's expression of horror is overly-exaggerated to the point of comedy. The caption reads: "liked your snake boi, @SerpenThyme. thanks for the inspo." /end ID]

A notification ding cut Janus off mid-sentence.

“Wow, someone left their cell phone on, so professional,” he said, giving the camera a dramatic eye roll. That someone was him, of course, because he was the only one in the apartment- just him and the running livestream- but that was no excuse not to be a drama queen about it. He finished wiping flour off his hands and grabbed his phone to silence it; but the notification made him pause. He flicked his eyes up toward the camera and gave a slight smirk.

“My goodness, I’m famous,” he drawled. “The Duke himself has graced little old me with some fan art.”

Most of the comments in the chat wanted him to show it, so Janus opened up Twitter to see the full post he’d been tagged in. It was a watercolor painting of the coiled-snake chocolate sculpture- lovingly named Jake by his viewers- he’d made for his YouTube video last week; it was wearing an expression of such comedic horror that Janus had to stifle a laugh. He flicked his phone screen toward the close-up camera on his counter so his viewers could see.

“How kind of you, Remus,” he said. “All of you should go scold him for what he’s done to poor Jake here.”

Most of his viewers would know he was joking- after all, they were the ones to nickname him Deceit when he provided neither a real or fake name for his online persona. They knew full well what he was like by now.

The oven timer dinged. Janus silenced his phone and set it aside.

“And our first batch of cookies is done. You know, why don’t we show the Duke some appreciation?”

[ID: An Instagram post by user @SerpenThyme. The photo is an artistically-framed shot of a stack of sugar cookies with green, yellow, and pink icing. Propped up against the stack is another cookie, with an intricate icing-drawing of an octopus. The photo appears to have been color corrected to have high contrast, low saturation, and a dark vignette at the edges. The Instagram user @OctoDukie is tagged. No caption. /end ID]

“You know, I have often been accused of actually being a little old lady, what with my fondness for knitted jumpers, rocking chairs, and incredibly fucked up murder mystery books. Today I am doing nothing to dispel this accusation, by making soup.”

The studio was dark and empty aside from Remus' workspace. Everyone else had left long ago, even his own brother, which meant that it was officially ass-o'clock in the morning (or, as most people called it, somewhere between 1 and 2 a.m.) But Remus was stuck in hyperfocus, honed in on putting the last touches on a commission that he'd been putting off for weeks. It's not that it was a tough painting- once he'd gotten started, it was actually a very creatively satisfying piece- but man, executive dysfunction could go suck a dick

“French onion soup, specifically. Because while I do like to pretend I am a classy bitch, I am also, regrettably, a lazy bitch with a distaste for anything that takes longer than one bottle of wine to make.”

Remus hated working in silence. It was stifling, almost suffocating. His brain needed noise like his lungs needed air. So when the studio had grown still and silent, Remus had flipped open his laptop and queued up some YouTube videos.

“So we have here three pounds of onions that we need to slice up, pole to pole. You’re going to cry no matter what, so if you have any memories you’ve been repressing since middle school, now is an excellent time to dredge those up.”

And if it happened to be 90% SerpenThyme videos, well. Sue him.

“Now the first rule of caramelizing onions: fast and sloppy is always better than slow and thorough… at least, that’s what every man I’ve ever slept with tells me.”

Remus choked and glanced over to his laptop screen just in time to catch Deceit's trademark smirk directed at the audience just for a moment. It was the deadpan delivery that always got him. Remus could barely hold onto a joke long enough to get through it without cackling mid-punchline, but this fucker could say the funniest shit like an off-hand comment.

He wiped his hands off on his jeans (what use were clothes if you couldn't use them as paint rags?) and pulled his laptop across the table. He typed out a quick comment, citing the timestamp of the joke, and after it was posted, he shut his laptop.

'Cause ass-o'clock was short for "get-your-ass-home-or-I’ll-kick-it" o'clock.

[ID: A screenshot of a YouTube comments section. The first comment is by user TheDuke, and reads: "10:42 wow, rude." The second comment is a reply by user SerpenThyme, and simply reads ";)" /end ID]

Janus plopped down on the couch with a slight groan. He didn’t need to stream today, but he really hated missing days. Besides… he was fine. Really.

He adjusted the camera until he was happy with the framing, and then checked the settings on his streaming software. Satisfied, he started the stream, and watched as his usual viewers rolled in.

“What do you mean I’m not in my kitchen?” Janus drawled, addressing the chat. He glanced around with an expression of faux-shock on his face. “My goodness, when did that happen?”

He chuckled, and then gestured to his surroundings. “Yes, we are in my living room today. If you must know, my closest and most trusted friend tried to murder me today- yes, Virgil, it was attempted murder and nothing less- and I survived with nary a scratch… and a broken foot, but that is beside the point. Anyway, I’m not allowed to stand for long periods of time, and I may or may not be somewhat inebriated by pain pills and couldn’t stand even if I wanted to. So we are cooking from my couch today.”

Janus paused for a few moments to read the chat messages as they popped up. A few get well soon’s, a few theories about the “attempted murder,” Virgil- who moderated his chat for him- vehemently denying the “attempted murder” but otherwise refusing to clarify the event, and a large volume of wtf why are you streaming today, take care of yourself comments, which made him smile. But one particular comment caught his eye, almost lost amid the torrent of an active chat: wait this kinda looks like the Duke’s living room?

“Oh, VampSuga,” he said, addressing that commenter in particular with a slight smirk. “I haven’t the faintest idea what you’re talking about. Anyway, since I can’t reach my oven from here, I thought some no-bake cookies were in order. For these you will need-”

[ID: A screenshot of a Discord conversation. The text reads:

“VampSuga: Ok ok hear me out. Dukeceit.

Starstruck96: who?

IneffableSnek: lmao

FeralBeauYasha: lol

VampSuga: Deceit and Remus Sanders! They’re totally dating. I will die on this hill.

FeralBeauYasha: Isn’t the duke w/ PatPat?

IneffableSnek: no thats his brothers bf

FeralBeauYasha: ohh

VampSuga: Did anyone see Deceit’s stream today? I swear that’s the Duke’s livingroom.

StarStruck96: idk that seems like a stretch

IneffableSnek: no wait i kno what u mean

IneffableSnek: im watching the duke’s old videos and that one where he shows off all his old weapons he’s in a living room kinda like deceit’s

FeralBeauYasha: They were acting all cute on twitter too

VampSuga: DUKECEIT” /end ID]

"Hey guys, been a while since you've seen my face and not just whatever my hands are busy with, when it's within YouTube's terms and conditions I mean. They used to be way more lenient…" Remus trailed off for a moment, then shook his head sharply and plastered on a grin.

"Anyway! In June me and a few other creators did a fundraiser for the Trevor Project, and y'all smashed the goal, so I let you decide what video I'd make this month." He paused, and gestured to the mountain of clothes piled behind him on the bed. "And you had so many juicy ideas to choose from, but you decided to dress me up like a Barbie instead."

Remus paused to scroll through his phone for a few moments. "Ah, ok, here we go. Twitter user YoonIsMyCat- oh, BTS, nice- sent in this first outfit. Uh… future Remus, put up the post here somewhere." He gestured vaguely to his right. "Y'all went with either a fuckton more clothes or a fuckton less clothes, which I respect. Apparently this outfit is called…” He squinted at his phone. “Amish chic? I take it back, no respect at all.”

Remus cycled through the outfits his viewers sent in, which ranged from the aforementioned “Amish chic” to “2008 rave attire” to “ok now you guys are just fucking with me” (which consisted of one of those big puffy snow coats, lime green in color; booty shorts with the shrug text emoji across the ass; fuzzy pink boots; and a yellow cowboy hat to top off the whole thing. It was awful. Remus loved it.) The mountain of clothes on the bed gradually became a mess of clothes spread across the floor instead, until there was just one outfit left.

“Ok so Twitter user VampSuga sent me this outfit that I’m gonna call ‘sexy librarian.’ I couldn’t find this exact sweater online, but-” he paused for dramatic effect, before brandishing a sweater toward the camera like a bullfighter. “My boyfriend had something that was close enough.”

Remus hopped up from the bed and switched off the camera so he could change.

“They’re going to lose their minds,” a voice drawled from the doorway. Remus threw his shirt at him.

“Shoo, I’m getting naked.”

[ID: A Twitter post by user @CallMeDukie. It features a selfie of YouTuber Remus “The Duke” Sanders, a Hispanic man with his hair dyed green and styled into a spiked mohawk. He is wearing a yellow knitted cardigan over a black button-up shirt. He is grinning widely at the camera. The caption reads: “my viewers pick my outfits! now live on youtube. go see what i look like as a sexy librarian!” /end ID]

DukeceitStan

first and only dukeceit shipper ig

DukeceitStan

wow there’s so many of you now! Hi!!

DukeceitStan

i want this to be canon so bad omg

DukeceitStan

i mean just look

[ID: A series of three gifs featuring Youtubers SerpenThyme, aka Deceit, and TheDuke, aka Remus Sanders. Deceit is a black man with long, dreadlocked hair, and vitiligo patches along the left side of his face. Remus is a Hispanic man with green-dyed hair styled into a mohawk, many ear and facial piercings, and tattoos covering both arms. Each gif is edited so that the highlights are tinged yellow when Deceit is seen, and tinged green when Remus is seen.

The first gif depicts a close-up shot of Deceit’s hands as he carefully decorates a cookie with green and yellow icing. The cookie art he is working on appears to be a half-finished octopus. The gif then fades into a mid-shot of Remus, with his back to the camera, facing a canvas. The canvas is blank, and Remus appears to be laying out paints on a table to his left.

The second gif depicts Deceit seated at his couch, facing the camera. He has many ingredients spread across his coffee table (including oats, cocoa powder, and butter) and appears to be in the process of laying out several more. The gif fades to show Remus seated at a similar couch with a similar coffee table in front of him. The camera is angled slightly downward to better show the myriad of knives spread out across the table. Remus is gesturing wildly with a morning star held in his hand.

The third gif depicts Deceit in his kitchen. He is pulling on a bright, yellow knitted cardigan, and smirking toward the camera. The gif fades to show Remus in his bedroom, seated on his bed. He is holding up a similar-looking cardigan toward the camera and grinning. /end ID]

“Remus, it’s almost two in the morning. Come to bed.”

“I’m coming, sorry. Twitter distracted me.”

“Mm. I can’t believe the bird app is more distracting than I am.”

“You should try harder.”

“Come to bed and maybe I will.”

“Ok, ok, I’m coming. Hang on though, is it cool if I post this?”

“Sure. They figured it out anyway.”

“Sweet. Ok, Jannie, I’m coming.”

[ID: A screenshot of a Twitter post by user @CallMeDukie. It reads: “Dukeceit is canon.” /end ID]

Welcome to Eggmanland! You've been granted with an extra special pass to the late hours of park, where things get even more exciting and interesting after the kids leave.

It's my favorite time because I finally get to ride Eggman after a long day of visiting the park and anticipating his arrival. He's the best ride of them all! ;D

Quick intro post + meet the versions of Eggman featured:

As you know from just one glimpse at my blog and everything I do, I'm deeply in love with Eggman and a devoted eggfucker. Here I'll post any fully explicit nsfw Eggman related content and stuff on here. I'll be sure to share plenty of ideas, thoughts, and maybe some oneshot fics, snippets, and more!

Just to make things clear in case I get asks about things I'm not interested in or have no experience in writing- I'm gay and only interested in nsfw of Eggman solo, with other men, or it being ambiguous when it comes to discussions and hcs. I have no experience in writing female anatomy (if there's a better neutral term lemme know) and it'd be awkward if I tried because I'm gay and clueless af lmfao.

It's unfortunately very rare to find Eggman nsfw along those lines since it's very often m/f stuff. I'm desperate for gay or solo stuff and hope to contribute as much as I can! I'd love if you can help out with asks too. 👀

People often seem to assume that I'm a bottom/sub before they get to know me, probably because of the way I talk about Eggman on my main but I'm actually a vers/switch and write Eggman the same way! He should absolutely be getting fucked in the ass and sucking dick too. >:) 💜💕

I have quite a few fetishes/kinks (outside of ones my second nsfw blog is based on) I'm very open minded and accepting towards a lot. I was going to list of some of my biggest but I've decided to surprise y'all with them as we go along. But yeah feel free to discuss any, if I'm into it I'll entertain it in my answer!

I can't guarantee this blog will be active daily in the same way my main blog is because busy busy but I'm open to asks all the time! You can also send as many as you want at any time, don't be shy! This blog is hidden from search results but everything will be tagged accordingly, so you can blacklist anything you don't want to see. Feel free to ask if you need anything tagged!

My nsfw Twitter is @daddy_eggman. I'll be much less active there and it'll probably mostly only be rts. At the moment you'll mostly see a bunch of art from the one artist I've found that actually draws godly gay Eggman nsfw. The world really needs more :')

I hope to make my own contributions with art someday too but my nsfw art still needs work and improvement before I start to share it with you all. When I do, Twitter is where they'll go since it isn't allowed here.

REMEMBER: All my posts are about modern Eggman unless stated otherwise

Meet the Eggmen:

Modern:

The star of the show! 💜⭐ Use the #modern tag for posts involving him! Classic Eggman is the same version but younger and posts about him specifically will be in #classic

Casino AU Eggman:

Art drawn by @/creativelychaotic, design and AU created by me. See more great ref images here too. 💜 #Casino AU for posts involving him!

King Shahryar:

#king shahryar for posts involving him!

Zobotnik:

#zobotnik for posts involving him!

Vampire AU Eggman:

#vampire au for posts involving him!

Boom Eggman:

#boom for posts involving him!

That's all I can think of to say for now! Check back every now and then as I update and add more to this in the future. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy your stay!

So I can be sure that you read it to the end, I'd appreciate if you like this post before following. ^^

#welcome to eggmanland

I loveeeee the way ur brain works and i like all ur posts and love reading them. Its Jimin day today and i wont lie that i am feeling a bit sad about whole JK not posting on JM bday because he was getting active on Social media again and i thought its because of JM bday coming soon but i hope they are happy and JM had a blast celebrating his bday.. it annoys me how other ship( u know which ship) is happy and making fun about this situation and calling Jikook bond fake and nonexsistant. 1/2

Ahhhhhh this topic!

Also me:

Packing my bags off these shipping streets. Jk don disgrace us. Lol. Kidding. If more than anything today has solidified my faith in JK and Jikook and while y'all are jumping ship imma hold the fort. Hashtag Jikook for life!

I've been receiving a lot of questions about this, about JK not posting for JM's birthday and I haven't answered any of them because- well I passed out. So...

Anywho,

Jk didn't post true, but have you thought about what it would have meant for him and JM if he had posted?

Now I see a lot of people running through the ship streets shouting Jikook broke up, something was off between them, Jikook was never real, jikook this- Jikook that- y'all need to calm your horses or I swear to God!

I mean I am down for all that wild gossip and angst but I think y'all is tripping.

Do I think they are in a bad place, HELL NO. Do I think they are not real? HELL NO! Do I think JK don lost his minds? ABSOLUTELY.

Lol

No but seriously, I'm fascinated by all of this. I'm in pain, can't process shit but when it comes to Jikook I'm always intrigued and fascinated by them.

I'm mostly fascinated by why JK pulled a 5/8, geared up for JM's birthday but then posts crickets on Jimin's birthday as you've said.

Is it me or does this whole thing feel like the tattoo girl scandal all over again? Lmho.

Up until now, I've avoided addressing Asks about Jikook coming out, JK proposing and stuff like that because those territories are a bit tricky for me- to speculate on those, I find I'd have to speculate on whether marriage is something both of Jikook want, whether both of Jikook want to come out but these are conversations I don't think y'all are ready for with me.

Not when I believe one of them, if you've been following my train of thoughts you'd know which, is not ready to make such commitments, joking about marriage and shit- yes, that tiny man. Lol.

I mean the backlash I get for the tamer things I share on here- chilee, y'all is about to eat me up for this. Here goes nothing. Mama pray for me.

I have said, late 2018 to the middle of 2019 is one of the moments I sincerely felt JK was going to 'out' Jikook just based on the way he was moving through that era until that impromptu hiatus and the following scandal.

Out Jikook as in OUT Jikook- I've told y'all Jikook have been asserting themselves against eachother. JK has been asserting himself and part of that self assertion ties in with his sexuality. He is tired of hiding. He's been tired since 2016- trouble this one.

Do I think JM is ready to come out- No. He doesn't want to come out but he doesn't want to hide hide either. Dude just want to stay in that glass closet.

Throughout my posts, I've speculated this has been a huge part of their on and off dynamics since November last year. Jk coming off too strong, JM asking for space- yall know don't make me repeat myself.

November 2019 up until today is also one such periods I felt JK was going to out Jikook, inspite of all the ups and downs they've experienced this season.

JK scares me to be honest with you. I keep saying people are looking at him wrong. Hell, people are looking at Jikook dynamics wrong I feel.

All the times Jikook have almost been accidentally outed, who's been the most terrified? It's not JK.

Jimin's face when RM said JK sneaks into JM's bed at night, his face when they walked into JK's room on Bon V and saw the cameras. I have an entire dissertation on this on my wall please get with it. Lol

Whatever silent protest JK's been on since JM's birthday last year- Not gonna lie, I felt JK was not posting for the others so he could post on JM's birthday this year as a way of coming out with him? You know, make a bold statement like he's done over the years? I'm delusional but also dead serious.

Each time I feel JK's come close to this pivotal moment, something's happened. I swear Jikook is taking years off my life- I'm exhausted.

Why is he trying to out their relationship on his own and not do that with the consent of Jimin? I'm gonna pray to God, y'all can read my mind with everything I have been saying since my posts because this is cutting it too close for me- and I'm exhausted so maybe another post next time.

Like I've said, I really believe they are in a good place this time around. Y'all know me, I don't shy from angst, I'd say if I felt there's been something off with them since they fixed whatever they were going through early half of the year.

The only tension I've sensed between them lately was on day two of the online concert when JM got a little too excited with trying to sell the sexual tension fantasy in his other ships and JK didn't look like he was happy about.

Later during the curtain call you could see dude cold stoning JM resulting in JM doing what he does best in such instances- clinging on to JK for their life. Lol.

He vanished from Namjoon's side real quick to take the bow next to JK but JK- Y'all check that moment out for yourself, see what I'm talking about.

Is that why he didn't wish Jimin a happy birthday? I don't think so. I think he put a lot of thought and preparation towards this moment to make something like this undo all of that- that is if my suspicions about what he was trying to do this year is right.

Jimin gone wake up married one of these days he won't know what hit him! Lmho.

It is why, I don't buy this whole he didn't post for the others which is why he didn't post for Jimin narrative. When have you known Jk to care about things like these?

The man literally got a birthday present for Jimin gave it to him in the presence of some of the members without doing same for them. Singling JM out like this is nothing new to him. He has done so consistently over the years to let this deter him.

The question y'all should be asking is why he didn't post for the others in the first place. They are all friends and posting for eachother's birthdays is a long standing tradition in BTS so why is he breaking from this culture all of a sudden?

Is he rebelling? Is he protesting? What is he trying to do? Right?

This moment has been building up since last year after JM's birthday and I honestly believed he was going to go through with it- hell I bought a wedding dress and shit- Jikook you son of bish!

I have said the company is giving them much room to be themselves, RM isn't breathing down their necks, JM looked like he was finally committed- everything looked great between them in my opinion except perhaps for the growing tensions between JK, V and Namjoon- If you've been paying any attention to their recent Twitter war.

I hate speculating based on nothing, so I'm just going to point out to you my observations without drawing conclusions- I'll share my thoughts on what these moments means when I've had more content to peruse and analyze from now- but for now you can make of it what you will:

1. JK starts a count down on Twitter, JM responds and continues the countdown.

Now I clocked, the moment JK posted this on the 5th that he had something up his sleeves with regards to Jimin which I shared with y'all. He was going for a 5/8/13 it's not news now.

2. After Jimin posts day 4 for the countdown, who ever was going to post after him was going to have to post day 3 to continue the countdown right? But Tae posts a V-cut instead breaking that chain.

Now I remember joking about this moment with a friend, rolling my eyes exclaiming, here they go again! V is trying to sabotage JK yet again, and he'd turn around and ask why their friendship is dwindling. The pettiness and passive aggressiveness of it all!

That moment reminded me of when he called JK out for attempting to eyefuck JM through the viewfinder in the Dynamite MV reaction video. Remember that? Same energy to me.

They do shit like this and their shippers will not take note but will turn around and act surprised when we say Taekook ain't all that- rolling my eyes.

3. Hobi continues the countdown with day 3 and RM posts something random the next day but I think it was to neutralize the Taekook shenanigans. Neutralizing is what RM does best- we been knew.

4. Jk posts his Savage Love cover on the 8th and equally doesn't partake in the countdown he himself initiated because- Savage.

5. Suga posts day 2. RM and Jin posts day 1 and Tae posts D-Day on the D day to promote the concert. Yadda yadda yadda.

Now I didn't think much of this moment to be honest- i merely took a mental note of it for future reference, and was paying close attention to their interactions at the concert- which we will talk about soon..

I didn't make much of this bit until VJoonKook became a hold out on Jimin's birthday. They were the last three to post, two of whom ended up not posting at all for Jimin"s birthday- fucking traitors.

It was at this point I felt compelled to put on my tinfoil hat. And reevaluate the situation.

Why were these three people the same trio engaged in that little squabble just a few days ago on the timeline? I wondered.

It felt as if Taekook were engaged in a Russian Roulette racing the clock while Joonie stood by waiting to neutralize whatever shit those two were going to pull on the timeline.

Call me delusional but I felt JK was going to post, Tae was going to try to one up him with a ridiculous post or counter his post- V and his fucking VMin agenda! Lmho

RM was going to end up mirroring whatever JK was going to post to neutralize it as per usual- leave me alone. I said I'm delusional. Let me be. Lol.

There's just a lot going on all at once and it's easy to lose sight of subtle moments like these when they happen.

Like Jimin saying he would be on VLive soon, which first of all- yay!

Y'all know I've been keeping my eyes on the app, most especially how the members are going to use it post IPO, post Soop- I have a lot of questions; will they be monitored like they were in May? Will they be able to have intimate interactions with the fans like before?

Y'all know my theory about Jikook and the VLive stuff so I'll leave it there.

Now as for what this moment here means, I think it's a humbling experience for all of us but mostly for Jimin-JK you sonova bish! Lol

Jimin is the one who loves to flex his bond and relationship with JK, he loves to show off their relationship. He is the one who's been called all sorts of names under the sun just because of his relationship with JK- even if they are friends.

None of the members have suffered and paid a price for their relationship with JK the way Jimin has throughout the years. It is why I hate it when people compare the others to him. Even if it placates you and lessens your insecurities please don't.

I'm not pressed about no ship wars. Hell, I often start one myself- what? fun.

I'm worried for Jimin mostly.

I think JK more than anyone knows how this looks. Which is why I really don't think this is what he was aiming for all along. To make Jimin look this way- again not to say JM is better than the others he didn't post for.

I don't know what's going on with JK now but I am not about to tell you this moment is nothing. It is not nothing.

I know people want to console themselves with the whole my partner don't gotta show off on social media on my birthday to show he loves me- please shut up. Or may be don't. Y'all con shippers confound me.

This is Jikook here, showing is an integral part of their dynamics. Isn't that why people call them a fanservice ship? Because they show so much? Because they do so much?

Jikook like to show off their bond, they like claiming eachother, they like reassuring eachother and I'm sorry but Park Jimin's father set such high standards for his son's birthday for anyone who claim they love him to pull stunts like this. Do y'all know Jikook at all?! I have to ask.

Jimin loves to be treated like he is different and special. It's his love language. We know this, BTS knows this, JK knows this- don't make excuses for JK if at the very least you can't see what he was trying to do here.

Even if you don't think they are a couple they are best friends- at the bare minimum. It doesn't take more than a few seconds to login and wish a friend a happy birthday- Hobi made four and he is not dating Jimin. Just saying.

You can't yell Jikook show us a lot hence there's no need for wild theories and assumptions and bully people who come up with wild theories and then in the same breath say they don't have to openly show us they care about eachother for them to be real- Y'all are going to ship by faith now? Chileee.

I have said JK likes to retract and conceal and only shows what he chooses to show and this was his choice. It's as simple as that. He chose not to post.

He didn't do it because of no damn other members.

He occupies a huge space in JMs life to not know what this moment says about him and his highly publicized relationship with Jimin- chileee, whatever did park Jimin do to you, JK?! Jesus Christ!

Havent heard of a betrayal this grand since the birth of Judas Iscariot- Judas is that you? Lmho.

I joke but I don't find this funny at all. Bless them.

It's one thing to not post for the others, but it's different for Jimin. And this is not to say the others don't matter to JK, they do. He's called them all family but then again he hasn't placed any one of them on a pedestal the way he's placed Jimin on a pedestal now has he? So we cannot assume Jimin means the same to him as the others mean to him.

Isn't that why we ship them?

Personally, I'm hurt by all of this. It hurts me that some people are going to use this as an excuse to tease and bully Jimin, call him a liar, call into question the years of friendship between Jikook, call into question any future interactions between them- I don cried my eyes out all day for Jimin but also for JK.

It hurts that I have to defend JK and Jikook to anyone. The task wasn't easy before all of this- not that anybody sent me. Who died and made me their spokesperson. Chileee

But please let's not dismiss this moment or belittle it. It's monumental- to me anyway.

JK was on to something I'm just curious to know what stopped him this time around. I want to know if he plans on not posting at all for anyone in the future. How long is he going to keep at it?

He's tried to out them twice. Will he do it again? How is he going to do it? What is Jimin going to do if indeed this is what JK had been planning, how is this going to affect their dynamics- I'm excited for their journey however it goes.

It's their journey unauthored. I'm just here to observe and report- and may uWu while I'm at it.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, we gotta ask ourselves, had JK posted anything at all today knowing full well he hasn't posted at all for anyone in the group all year, that what would that have meant for their relationship? What message would that have sent?

While we lament about this moment, let's also take a minute to ponder over what this moment might have signified if JK had actually posted.

Everything he did in the days leading up to Jimin's birthday pointed to the fact he was definitely going to post. To me it felt he was gonna come out. He was. And if he had done it- my god!

JK isn't my favorite person right about now. He can go ahead and step on leggos. No kithes for him🙄

But I have faith in him. Always. He's consistently shown and proven his love and loyalty for Jimin through out the years. You don't nibble on a man's ear in front of sixty thousand people, to find posting a simple message on his birthday tedious. This is Jikook. If it feels wrong, it is wrong.

I wish I could tell yall, this moment means nothing, that JK not posting is not a big deal but I can't. This moment is everything.

Signed,

GOLDY

Just like Paddington.

Summary: While getting off the train at Paddington station, you and Gwilym find a bear.

Warnings: None! Just fluff!

A/N: Y'all...do you ever just look at Gwilym and CRY??? 😫 Plus I was watching (what should have been Oscar winning) Paddington and got some inspo for the fic! Enjoy! 💖

"Delayed by four hours..." Gwilym grumbled and helped you jump between the train and the platform by holding your hand as you stepped off.

"The beauty of the wonderful great British rail service!" You sarcastically uttered. "Delays are part of the service, Gwil!" You laughed and he rolled his eyes with a smile on his face before linking arms with yours. You had finally arrived in Paddington station after a day trip to Brighton. You rested your head on his bicep as you walked along the platform "I'm knackered," you tiredly sighed.

Gwilym pressed a kiss to you hair "We'll get a takeaway for dinner and binge watch whatever you want for the rest of the night. You never know...I might even run you a bubble bath," he leaned closer "And join you in it..." he suggestively purred and it sent a chill up your spine and made your lips to curve into a smile. He nuzzled his stubbly face against your cheek and pressed kisses to it, making you giggle. It fizzled down in your throat when you spotted something near a bench. You squinted your eyes and made your way over to it, taking Gwilym with you. "What is it?" He asked, not noticing the thing you were making a beeline for.

Upon closer inspection you realised it was a bear that was wearing a little red vinyl jacket. "It's a teddy bear," you kneeled down and picked it up, brushing its honey, brown coloured fur. "Someone must have dropped it..." you sighed and you both looked around for someone who might have left it but the station was practically empty. You stood up with it still in your hands "It's just like Paddington!"

Gwilym raised a brow "Not every bear found in Paddington station is Paddington, Y/N." He gently took the bear from you "Plus Paddington wears a blue jacket and he speaks. This one-" you both jumped when he squeezed it a little and heard two voices come from inside it.

'We love you beary much, Justin!'

You pressed your hands to your heart and your facial features softened. "Awh! They customised the speaker inside!" You cooed "Perhaps the two voices are the kids parents?" Gwilym was still looking at the thing. "Why don't we post a video or photos of it online and try and reunite it with its owner?"

"As sweet as that is, do you think it would work?" He asked, he didn't want you to get your hopes up.

You shrugged a shoulder "It's worth a try I guess." Gwilym nodded and you put the bear in his backpack before heading home.

He watched you with a soft smile as you wrote on a sheet of paper and placed it beside the bear. It said: 'I was found in Paddington station! Please help me find my way back home to Justin!' You made Gwil press the bear while you took a video of it speaking before you posted it to both your Instagram and Twitter pages.

"I guess all we can do now now is wait," he shifted back and forth from the balls of his feet to his heels.

"How about that bubble bath then?" You smirked and Gwilym's eyebrows eagerly rose and he grinned, wrapping his arms around your waist and dragging you to the bathroom.

After having a relaxing bath together, you both checked your phones and found it frantically buzzing with notifications. "My god..." he uttered and skimmed through them.

You let out a burst of laughter "Look at Joe's post!" You held your phone in front of Gwilym's face and he giggled seeing the caption: 'I hope they find their home! But he will never be as cute as Bear-jamin Hardy.' Above it, he had shared your post but added a photo of a bear that he had taped Ben's face to. "I can't wait to see Ben's reply."

"That is hilarious," Gwilym chuckled before you both decided to settle down and watch a box set. "Think we'll get the bear back home?" He asked, holding you in place with his arms while your back was against his chest, you were both lazily playing with each other's fingers.

"I hope so. I loved my teddy bears when I was a kid, I had so many in my bed that there would be hardly any space for me," you laughed and you felt yourself bouncing up and down when Gwilym loudly chuckled. "Oh! I had a teddy that I loved so much!" You sat up with a smile on your face as you reminisced. "It was a fluffy white bear with a pink heart nose and it had a rainbow coloured ribbon tied into a bow around its neck. I called him Mr Cuddlesworth."

Gwilym burst out laughing and then covered his mouth with his hands when he heard you groan in embarrassment. "I didn't mean to laugh that much! It's adorable, really- just like you." He pecked your nose. "Mr Cuddlesworth...?" He giggled and you hit him with a pillow. "What happened to him?"

You sighed "I'm not sure, I think I lost him." You glanced over to the bear you had found sitting on the chair. "Maybe that's why I want to make sure that one gets home, because I know how upsetting it is to lose something you care so much about."

Gwilym wrapped you up in his arms, stroking strands of hair behind your ear. "Let's get some sleep, hmm?" He pressed a kiss in the space between your ear and cheek before helping you up off the couch and leading you to bed.

•••

A few days later the pair of you were starting to give up hope of reuniting the bear with its owner.

That was until Lucy showed both you and Gwilym a video of a woman showing her phone to a young boy while someone recorded it. The young boy gasped and a wide smile spread across his face. 'That's Bobby! My Bobby bear!' He kept saying with a huge grin while pointing at the screen. "Looks like we've found Justin," Gwilym gave your hip a small squeeze "Should message them and say they can pick...Bobby up."

You nodded and sent the Instagram account a message. They replied a few hours later and you arranged a day they could bring Justin over to pick up his teddy.

"I think you're more excited than the kid," Gwilym laughed as he watched you peer out the window to see any signs of someone coming.

"Oh hush!" You smirked and waved away his words. "I think that's them!" You moved from the window and headed to the buzzer, waiting for it to ring. When it did, you answered it straight away. A few moments later, there was a knock at the door. You and Gwilym both opened it at the same time and noticed a young boy looking up at the both of you, sporting a similar jacket to the one that was on the bear. "Hi there!" You smiled "You must be Justin, and this must be mum and dad?" You asked looking at the couple behind him.

"Hi, yes!" The woman stretched out her hand and you shook it. "Georgia, and this is my husband, Tom." You shook his hand and Gwilym did the same.

"Nice to meet you," Gwilym politely greeted.

"Well come in!" You grinned and ushered the family into the flat you and Gwil shared. "I think someone's waiting for you just over there on the chair next to the window," you crouched down to Justin's level and pointed. He glanced up to his parents for signs of permission and they nodded with a small smile on their faces. The four of you walked through, you grabbed Gwilym's hand when you heard Justin gasp with happiness seeing his bear again. Your heart swelled at the sight and Gwilym looked between you and the boy reunited with his bear with a lopsided grin.

"There he is!" Georgia cooed "We can't thank you enough for doing what you did," she turned to both you and Gwil.

"He had been crying non-stop since he lost Bobby. Justin's had him since he was a baby." Tom explained "He was devastated and we were actually going to go to the station and ask if anyone had handed the bear in but my sister sent me the video you posted."

"We're just glad Justin and Bobby are reunited again," you smiled "It was kinda like being 'Paddington'!" You laughed and then noticed Georgia hand something to Justin who was standing behind her legs clutching onto Bobby for dear life, scared that he'd lose the teddy again. He gingerly stepped forward and handed you a piece of card that had a crayon drawing on it of what you could tell was him and Bobby the bear with the words 'Thank you' in bright blue and green above the drawing.

"Thank you for finding my bear," he shyly smiled before engulfing you in a hug. You laughed and the three adults around you were all touched by the sweet sight.

"You are so welcome! I just hope you keep an eye on him so he doesn't sneak off again!" You smirked and Justin let out a giggle.

"Can I get a photo of this?" Georgia asked.

"Course!" Gwilym smiled "I'm sure everyone will be relieved knowing Justin got his bear back!" He chuckled. You and Gwil stood either side of the boy who was proudly holding his teddy as Georgia took a few photos. You then all bid your goodbyes, Justin's parents thanking you both dozens of times before the door shut.

You and Gwilym both shared a loving look. "That was the sweetest thing I think I've ever experienced!"

"That was so adorable. Did you hear his little gasp!" Gwil placed his hands over his heart "God! It was so sweet!" He went over and picked up the card that Justin had made. "This is going on the fridge." He made his way to the kitchen before sneaking into the bedroom and grabbing something that he had hid under the bed the day before. "Hey, Y/N..." Gwilym trailed off and slowly entered the living room with his hands behind his back.

"Yeah?" You were lying out on the sofa while flicking through tv channels. You furrowed your brows noticing him acting so suspicious and shifty. "What?" You sat up a little and he perched himself on the other side of the couch with his hands still behind him.

He slowly brought them forward, including the thing he was holding. You gasped as tears welled in your eyes seeing the fluffy white bear with a pink heart nose and a rainbow coloured ribbon tied into a bow around its neck in his hands. "Guess who I found."

"Mr Cuddlesworth?!" You outstretched your arms and Gwilym handed him to you. "How did you even find him?" You squeaked out, cuddling your teddy with tears of joy slipping down your cheeks.

"I phoned your mum and she had a sneaking suspicion that he was in the loft of the house. So, after one afternoon of rummaging, seeing and screaming at more spiders than I ever thought existed, I finally found Mr Cuddlesworth in a box."

"Oh Gwil," you smirked and pecked his lips "This is the best thing anyone has ever done for me."

He cleared his throat "There's...uh...there's something a bit different about him." He swallowed hard and you narrowed your eyes before inspecting the bear- you didn't see anything different about it.

Until you noticed something on the bow.

"Gwil...?" You whispered with a smile creeping on your face.

He took the bear from you and got down on one knee holding it out to you. "Will you," he used the bears paw and pointed it to you "Marry me?" He pointed the paw at him with a hopeful smile on his face. "Please?"

You nodded and wrapped your arms around Gwilym, squashing the bear between you both. "Course I'll marry you!" You exclaimed and Gwil leaned back to place the ring on your finger, pressing a kiss to it after he did before lovingly kissing your lips.

A little while later, he made you pose with the bear and your new ring before the photo along with the two of you with Justin earlier to his Instagram with the caption: 'Justin was reunited with his beloved...and I get to spend a lifetime with mine...and Mr Cuddlesworth...'

Hi y'all, longtime lurker and wantrepreneur. (TLDR at bottom) Normally that title is not something to be proud of, but in my case it’s the truth. I’ve always wanted to own and run a business. For me, it’s not about being the boss. It’s not about becoming freakishly rich creating the next Uber or Facebook. It’s not even about hating my full-time job. (Disclaimer: I freaking love my day job)My want comes from a starry eyed desire to provide value to others. Entrepreneurship is all about creating and providing value to the world around you. This could be a restaurant cooking up some tasty food or a cell phone app that makes somebody’s life marginally easier. I want to leave this world a better place than I found it. That’s my mantra and my purpose in life.“So Paul, why don’t you go start a business?”, you ask. Well, right now I’m trying. More specifically, I’m trying to find how I want to provide value. I spent all of college and a few years after, paralyzed with the questions “What do I do?”, “What business do I want to start?”, “What would succeed, and would I even enjoy it?” I filled up notebooks sketching out hundreds of ideas, only to find myself stuck again at the drawing board. It wasn’t until about five months ago that I realized that there’s not a perfect answer to those questions. And more importantly, I realized I’ll never find my way by just thinking myself in circles.So in September 2018, I started a blog, The purpose of the blog was to detail my journey of testing 12 business ideas in 12 months. (I counted the blog as the first business idea) It’s been 4 months, and so far I’ve spent 140 hours and $1077.34 building three blogs and one mobile app. I wouldn’t consider any of the four projects I’ve built successes, but I did finish each one. (Which is saying something for me!)“Wow! Four businesses!” you might think. Why would I call myself a wantrepreneur?I don’t consider any of the projects I’ve built successful, because I haven’t generated revenue from them. Literally, $0. What’s worse, I’ve only monetized one of the four ideas. Woe is me, right? I’m certainly discouraged, but I’m not giving up just yet. I wanted to take some time to organize what I have learned from my four failures, as well as share that knowledge around. Everyone likes numbered lists, so here we go.1. Find a schedule/system that works for you. (Setup a habit)Motivation is fleeting, so set up habits, goals, and rewards to keep pushing through the hard times. The biggest thing I struggled with is mustering up the strength to code on my project after a 10 hour day of coding for my full-time job. Plan for this, and everybody’s plan will look different.2. Market your product (Or get someone to do your marketing)I wish I could go back in time and smack September Paul in the mouth. If I could I would yell, “Hire somebody to do your marketing for you! Paul, you don’t know shit about marketing.” I went into this journey thinking I could just post weekly on Reddit and Facebook about my progress. Oh and maybe, I could finally make one of those Twitter or Instagram accounts and build that for marketing. NO. Subreddit moderators will remove any self-promotion posts faster than you can check if it’s even up. Your personal Facebook account will be equally difficult to get meaningful feedback. (Unless you want feedback from Grandma) And if you’re like me and trying to build a twitter/insta following at the last minute, let me tell you it is a struggle.3. Make it cost money! (And don’t save this step for last)This seems like the most obvious one on the list. “No duh, a business needs to charge money”, you might be thinking. But I’m not talking about polished and completed products. I mean as soon as you’re asking people “would you pay for this”, you should have something to sell and put in their hands. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking it’s not good enough to ask people to pay for. The payment is the ultimate test if the prototype is worth it’s weight. (A price tag also makes users take you more seriously.) Even ideas that generate sneaky revenue (like ads), incorporating some kind of payment is a MUST. You’ll have the least amount of motivation/confidence at the end of building your project, so set up a payment stream as soon as possible.4. Don’t build something you wouldn’t use/buyBefore I build any project, one of the first things I do is check if someone has already beat me to it. There’s often a solution that fits the exact use case I was thinking of, and it works better than I could have designed it. Someone else has already build the thing that I need, and I still don’t spend money on their superior product. When that happens, I realize that the product idea is a non-starter. If I wouldn’t buy or download the superior solution that I needed and searched in the first place, why would anyone else buy it? Use yourself as a litmus test, and ask: “If this was a thing, would I actually download it/ buy it?” Be honest.5. Find someone that’s done it before to be your mentorFrankly, this is something I haven’t done myself yet. However, I know is absolutely necessary for success. My plan from here on out is to find someone that is familiar with the niche I’m building, and reach out to them via email, LinkedIn, or Twitter. I’m not saying reach out to Mark Cuban and bug him with general business questions. Instead if you’re starting a candle and soap business, find someone that’s experiencing success with that and ask them for guidance. Ask them good questions to specific problems you’re having. Good questions will take you further than bad questions like “How did you do it?” or “Where do I start?”.6. Keep the scope of the project small and simple. (Then make it simpler)I’m a big dreamer, so this is something I personally struggle with a lot. I can plan out in detail how to put together a big project on paper. But actually executing each step to bring that project to life is hard. Keep stripping your plans until you’re left with a minimum viable product. No features, bells, or whistles.7. Don’t hide your idea. Share it with everyone proudly, and get good at sharing it.Sharing your work can be scary. Asking for feedback can be even scarier. But the more you do it the less scary it is. Personally, I get less emotionally attached to my work the more I share it. When I get told my business idea rocks or sucks after I’ve already shared it with 20 people each individual opinion holds less weight. When this happens you can start evaluating the feedback for what it is, raw unemotional data. Whatever your business idea is, you should be able to explain it in layman’s terms in one short line or phrase.8. One month is not enough time to build a businessShocker. One month is barely enough time to build a meaningful prototype if you’re working in your free-time. If I could do it over again, I would allocate three to six months of part time work for each business idea. Work hard, use time wisely, but don’t set unrealistic deadlines for yourself.9. Plan a vacation/break!Everybody needs time to relax and decompress. Entrepreneurship is no different, cut out some time to rest and recover regularly. I like to keep the pace of my breaks about as often as I would vacation from a standard corporate job. Your work will suffer if you’re constantly stressed or exhausted. Go easy on yourself!10. Take care of yourself while you’re hustling. Exercise, sleep, and eat right.This point is so important I saved the best for last, so it sticks. Take care of your physical and mental health, or you’ll burn out in four months like I did. Plan for it, build habits, do whatever you have to do to stay healthy. Find what works for you. For ideas, here’s what I find works for me in this order:Exercise regularly (like 5x a week or more) — At least break a sweat each timeDon’t eat garbage. Junk food does NOT give you energy, it’s gives you temporary comfort and is slowly killing you. You know this, eat right.Be around people. Talk out any problems, even if you’re an introvert like me.Go talk a doctor or therapist if you’re still in the dumps. It’s hard to ask for help, but you will not out-think or out-muscle mental illness. I know this from experience, don’t overthink it, suck up your pain/pride, and ask for help. If you have honestly tried 123^ consistently and it’s not helping, call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask around for in-network therapists. Be kind to yourself, and hang in there. :)I put together this list for myself as much I did to share it with others. And I’m not giving up on my irrational goal of 12 startups in 12 months. I’m going to weekly review this list and make sure I’m practicing what I preach. There’s an infinite amount of tips/advice for starting a business, but I wanted to organize and share something that I wish past me could have read.TLDR: Build habits. Marketing is important and hard. Don't work for free. Only build something you would actually use. Find a mentor. Keep it simple, stupid. Take care of yourself.

Eagles Players Dispute Philly Voice Story Describing Carson Wentz as “Selfish” and “Uncompromising”

Joe Santoliquito, coming in hot on MLK Day.

The long-time local sports writer dropped a Philly Voice story this morning citing anonymous sources in describing Carson Wentz as a “selfish” and “uncompromising” player. Joe says Voice spoke with “more than a half dozen players, plus other sources close to the team” over the past two months.

I have been judged as the most pragmatic and reasonable Crossing Broad writer, therefore I’ve been assigned the reactionary piece to Joe’s piece.

Let’s go through the story and pull some excerpts to analyze.

Writes Joe:

Whereas some circles blamed the Eagles’ offensive failures on new offensive coordinator Mike Groh, numerous sources in and around the NFL and Eagles said they thought Wentz may have been the root of the Eagles’ offensive problems. Groh is a “good coach,” who was “bullied” by Wentz, according to sources. The problem with the offense this past season shouldn’t lie with Groh, it should “lie with Wentz,” they said.

Yeah? Well I could see that happening. Groh was a first-year offensive coordinator who worked with the wide receivers in 2017, so this was his first season directly interacting with Wentz. If Frank Reich and John DeFilippo were veteran coaches, you could understand how they might assert more control over a then-25-year-old quarterback. Joe touches on that a few paragraphs later.

One thing is certain: Every one of our sources said the same things almost verbatim about the relationship between Wentz and Nick Foles: “They love each other, they respect each other and they support each other.”

But while the sentiment in the Eagles’ locker room is that Foles is “universally loved,” Wentz isn’t.

I found it interesting that Chris Long and Fletcher Cox created that Nick Foles shrine. You could theorize that they love the dude because of the Super Bowl run last year, sure. It certainly seemed like the team had really positive things to say about Nick when he took over for Carson, but I don’t know if that equates to them disliking Carson. It’s not like being “pro-Nick” automatically means that you’re “anti-Carson.” You could simply enjoy playing with one guy more than the other guy while enjoying both as people and players.

More after the jump:

Numerous sources confirmed Wentz was once verbally attacked by a highly respected teammate for not being “a team guy.”

“Carson Wentz’s biggest enemy is Carson Wentz,” one source said. “He’s had his ass kissed his whole life, and sometimes acts like he’s won 10 Super Bowls, when he hasn’t played in, let alone won, a playoff game yet. Everyone around him wants good things for him. He did more thinking on the field than he did playing (in 2018). You don’t have to be a brain surgeon or a football expert to see how differently this team plays and reacts with one guy as opposed to the other.”

I can see the reasoning here. Wentz has been a #1 guy his entire life. He didn’t have to sit behind another quarterback as a rookie. Sam Bradford was shipped out to allow Carson to be a starter in his first NFL year. And it’s certainly true that it’s a different team with Nick in the game.

According to multiple sources, Wentz tended to “complicate” the offense. He didn’t let it come organically, as Foles did. According to one source, Wentz could “complicate 2+2.”

Reich and DeFilippo stressed to Wentz the importance of sticking with the play that was called — a completed pass was there waiting. When Wentz deviated from that, it was sometimes met with bad consequences, like an interception or a sack. When Wentz trusted what Reich and DeFilippo called, it led to an MVP-like season that produced an Eagles’ single-season franchise record 33 touchdown passes and an 11-2 record in 13 games.

This can never really be proven because there are too many variables, but you could certainly go through every down he’s ever played and look for pre-snap reads and audibles. You can look for instances where he pulled the ball out during RPOs. You could look at the amount of times he tried to force the ball to one receiver and you could time how long he held onto the ball.

I think it was pretty apparent that Foles was smoother at going through his reads and taking what the defense gave him. Lane Johnson said himself that the ball was coming out quicker with Nick playing QB.

Wentz’s proclivity for playing “favorites” manifested itself in targeting Ertz, who went on to catch a single-season NFL-record 116 passes for a tight end. Over the 11 games Wentz played, he went to Ertz 106 times (an average of 9.6 targets per game), while Alshon Jeffery was targeted 74 times (7.4 targets per game) and Nelson Agholor 60 times (5.4 targets per game). Sources added, without any great revelation, that Jordan Matthews is an Eagle because “of his buddy Wentz.”

I did a story on this. The results showed that Wentz threw to Alshon Jeffery more often than Foles did. I think we all kind of concluded that Nick was more willing to target Alshon on contested downfield and/or jump ball type of passes, because he trusted him to go up and make those plays while perhaps Carson did not.

But Nick Foles still threw at Ertz frequently.

Here are those numbers:

That’s 65 total targets over 7 games, so 9.2 targets per game. That’s a difference of 0.4 in how much each quarterback targeted Zach Ertz this season. You’d have to go through film and look at distances and air yards and see how each QB specifically used the #1 tight end.

The subjects interviewed for this story gave the impression that Wentz changed after his injury. With Foles more than likely gone next season and nothing but open space ahead to rehab and spend a full training camp as QB1, there seems to be a good chance he’ll be his dynamic self again — both on the gridiron and with his teammates.

“He has to return to who ‘Carson Wentz’ is,” a source told PhillyVoice. “That comes with relaxing and not forcing things. It also comes with being able to take constructive criticism. He has to learn that it’s not always about him and that’s partly what hurt this team this year. We know what type of player he can be, and who he normally is. He needs to realize it’s the Philadelphia Eagles not the Philadelphia Carsons.

Sure.

I can’t imagine tearing my ACL and then watching another guy go on and win the Super Bowl. Of course you’re frustrated. Of course you want to work your ass off to get back to full health, get back on the field, and prove that you can do what your backup did. That’s natural competitive DNA that should exist in pretty much every single player. Stefen Wisniewski, another devout Christian guy, was unhappy and complained when he got benched earlier this season.

For what it’s worth, and this might be burying the lede, but several Eagles came out on social media to dispute the allegations made by the anonymous sources:

Reading through this Carson Wentz thing and as a leader on this team none of that is true Carson is a great teammate and great player we are all behind him 100% he’s our guy and will come back and prove the world wrong. If you got a problem feel free to @ me I’ll respond

— fletcher cox (@fcoxx_91) January 21, 2019

And Brandon Brooks:

What my guy @fcoxx_91 said!!! pic.twitter.com/DpRr39ZcEI

— Brandon Brooks (@bbrooks_79) January 21, 2019

And now Lane Johnson:

Whoever wrote that article needs to check their "sources". #fakenews

Carson has been and is our leader and our QB. Y'all know where to find me if you have any issues.#flyeaglesfly

— Lane Johnson (@LaneJohnson65) January 21, 2019

And regarding Joe specifically, he’s a freelancer who writes for several different outlets. He publishes things for Voice and for CBS 3 as well, and he used to come in and do the Sports Zone show that I produced on Sunday night. He dabbles in different sports and could probably be described as a jack of all trades.

Some people went back and pulled some previous things he said/wrote about Wentz to see if there were any conclusions to draw, any particular “bias” towards one guy over the other.

Here are some findings via “Patrick” on Twitter:

Relevant context: The author from today’s bombshell report on Wentz has had some… strong opinions on Wentz in the past. pic.twitter.com/ZlFPVIH7NJ

— Patrick (@pmc1423) January 21, 2019

Right, so you can reach your own conclusions with this story. Go read the Voice piece and see how you feel. I’m sure we’ll get a few more responses from teammates.

November 2017 Update

Okay, I'm fully aware we're almost a week into November; short version is that a home thing got in the way of me working on this update. So here it is.

It also got in the way of me keeping up to date on Huevember, which I still plan on doing! I'm just going to be working on catch up today and posting stuff to instagram as I go, and doing the ten picture posts on this blog like last month. I'm also posting on Twitter now! I'm not used to using the platform yet, so I'm just been releasing four-image blocks of my latest art challenges.

The idea for Huevember is, since this is my first year doing it, I'm going to go super simple on the design and coloring. I'm going to do a series of fashion plates using three colors: white, black, and the color of the day. If you want an example of what to expect, think this drawing, this drawing, or these drawings, but with a more uniform body shape and a simpler color scheme. I just did a whole month of traditional art, so I'm going digital to break the cycle. I was going to use photoshop to get used to using the program for art, however due to the designs I've planned and to prevent me from snapping my tablet in half in pure frustration, I'm going to use Illustrator for Huevemeber. Still haven't decided if I'm going to record it or not.

Quick note, I don't think Kittenpalooza is going to be a thing anymore. Not sure what happened, I think plans just fell through. But I can still use the art I did complete for different projects, which is nice.

A lot of stuff didn't go through, actually. The portrait contest I mentioned passed and I wasn't able to enter anything. And Patreon has been put on the back burner until I have time to actually make something for it, something that may not happen until January. There's been so much going on that I haven't had time to do art like I want to. I'm aware that if I want Patreon to work I need to sink time into it. Unfortunately I just don't have that time right now. I'll keep people posted. Heck, I honestly did want to launch it last month!

At this point I'd handwave it by flailing my arms and saying life happens but I'm going to be real with you for a minute. Things have gotten really stressful where I'm at. I'm not going to go into details, but have you ever seen a small cat try to scramble out of a bathtub? That's where I'm at right now and I'm not sure where it's going. I'll keep you posted though. For your viewership you deserve that.

Speaking of, I just checked and there are 115 real live people following this blog! Wow! Thank you all so much! I wasn't really expecting it, I should have thrown something together… I do have the footage I took from Inktober. I'll put it together for y'all!

Last thing to note on for now, I'm figuring out what to do as an advent calendar this year. I have a few ideas, but mainly I'll be doing the posts in a different way; grouping them ,in groups of 5. I also set up a side blog for daily posts, which I'll add a link to in next month's update.

Thanks for listening, you guys, and I'll talk to you later. -Liz
