"Blake Lovely always gave me bad vibes. I never liked her". Except that's not true. Social media at large liked Blake!!! They loved her whenever she shows up for the Met Gala. They loved her and Ryan's relationship. Always praising them for their relationship and commitment for each other. Loved her for her witty Instagram posts. It's just not true that the internet has always "had bad vibes" about Blake!! Even if you claim to be that one person out of millions who never liked Blake, it's still not true to say the internet never liked Blake.

"She destroyed her own reputation" is simply false too!! Because she was doing just fine prior to this!! Even if she had a questionable history or made some bad choices in the past, those things that everyone kept bringing up like her plantation wedding and whatever, those things were never a problem before and people still loved her so clearly her reputation was fine.

Y'all just want to say she ruined her own reputation because y'all want to absolve yourself of any guilt for playing a part of this smear campaign. Y'all don't want to admit that you were the stupid one and you fell for a man's propaganda. Like don't just go online and go "oh my bad" for show, actually look at yourself and figure out what is wrong with you!!

Within our limitations, there is no limit to how beautiful we can become, how much of our ideal self we can create. All the beauty in the world was made within the oppressive limitations of time and death and impermanence.

What is next for any of us? Death presumably, with some stuff before that.

Let’s talk about watching things. Let’s talk about watching rather than actually watching. Let’s think about talking about watching a second-hand experience. Let’s continually abstract ourselves from what we believe is the world.

Reminds me of the first time I went to see a psychiatrist about my anxiety problem. As I was listing my symptoms (can't sit in class, feels like suffocation when I have to sit still for a long time, constantly feeling overwhelmed) he gave me a look and said "Non of the things you're describing is anxiety. That's restlessness and we can look into it, see what's the cause if you want." And that was my introduction to ADHD. I was 22 btw and didn't know what ADHD actually was before that.

I was diagnosed with anxiety too (had panic attacks sometimes) but as the reasons for fear got solved, my anxiety resolved too.

When a person with ADHD complains of severe anxiety, I recommend that the clinician not immediately accept the patient’s label for her emotional experience. A clinician should say, “Tell me more about your baseless, apprehensive fear,” which is the definition of anxiety. More times than not, a person with ADHD hyperarousal will give a quizzical look and respond, “I never said I was afraid.” If the patient can drop the label long enough to describe what the feeling is like, a clinician will likely hear, “I am always tense; I can’t relax enough to sit and watch a movie or TV program. I always feel like I have to go do something.” The patients are describing the inner experience of hyperactivity when it is not being expressed physically.

At the same time, people with ADHD also have fears that are based on real events in their lives. People with ADHD nervous systems are consistently inconsistent. The person is never sure that her abilities and intellect will show up when they are needed. Not being able to measure up at the job or at school, or in social circles is humiliating. It is understandable that people with ADHD live with persistent fear. These fears are real, so they do not indicate an anxiety disorder.

holy SHIT

Poll: Would Simon Snow and Bax Grimm Pitch from Carry on pass the egg baby project

Reasoning: imaging them having to do this during their watford era, is there a fic like that

[honeybeebaaz]

Not for nothing but what's the damage with people being so negative about people who ship Armand and Daniel going a little nutty?

"Armand thinks of other things." Yeah no shit. Obviously. He's a complex character with an equally complex backstory. He's 514 years old, obviously there's more to him than how he's looking at one mortal man.

But also...Devil's Minion shippers get nothing. CONSISTENTLY. If you were in it from before the show (like I was) we got a chapter in the third book of a 13 book series. Daniel practically ceased to exist after book 3. Armand gets his own book and Daniel was literally a footnote in it and a negative one at that. And there's no real contact between them except maybe two passing sentences in two of the later books. Daniel isn't even mentioned in the last book of the series. We literally got a single chapter and after that, nothing.

We don't even have anything from the show except what's the equivalent of sucking on an ice cube to not totally dehydrate. That and the actors having fun about it in promo stuff. Hell, even if (and I hope the if is a when) they do ANYTHING with this pairing it likely won't be until S4 at the earliest, but realistically not until S5 (you know in 3-4 years if things are speedy).

This is the Louis and Lestat show. Obviously. They come first and that's how it should be. After that we have Armand and where he's concerned it's largely a character study that encompasses more than just his relationships. Obviously.

But ffs, leave people alone when all they have to go off of is some eye glaring. Eye glaring, mini little detail crumbs that could actually mean nothing, actors having fun, and a book chapter from 1988. I have my own Pepe Silvia crazy board and entertain myself based on practically nothing and I am aware that the likelihood of getting anything any time soon is slim at best. But I'm also gonna have fun with it on this the liking stuff and shipping stuff website. The hypothetical fun might literally be the only thing I get.

Thursday is a lost cause.

But we will keep on fighting.

We will get up, say “Yes! Today is a different day than before,”

believing this against all evidence, eating food like that matters, going to jobs that mean the same thing as they did before, but cast in a new light by our own optimism, which will slowly drain away until all that is left is the movements and thoughts we’ve had before,

echoes of ourselves, underlined to emphasize the lack of emphasis, coming home, drifting home, aimless, homeward wandering into a kitchen that is too small for our needs and eating food that isn’t what we imagined it would be and watching television that means more to us than our jobs

and finally falling asleep, in which we dream of the Thursday that could be, if only we lived Thursday the the full potential of its Thursday-ness, not expecting it to be anything but Thursday, embracing every inch of its Thursday reality, and living each Thursday moment anew, only to wake the next Thursday, and again impose, 

unsuccessfully, 

our imagined Thursday onto the unyielding frame of Thursday,

our Thursday,

a lost cause.

Seeking to allay these concerns, the Sheriff’s Secret Police’s genderless spokesbeing with the smoothly beautiful features explained in that voice that calms animals:

“Decades ago, when you were a child and lived beside the sea, you would go down in the afternoon and stand in the water, warm as blood, and pluck clams from between the rocks. Your grandfather would cook them over his stove until they opened and you would listen to the radio together. The ships would come in the afternoon, piled high with cod and herring, surrounded by seagulls, carrying tales of adventure and peril in the sloshing boots of every fisherman.”

“Some things don’t come back,” the spokesbeing continued. “They can only travel in one direction, like mountains travel through the centuries. Yes, mountains. You were with grandfather when the voice on the radio rose in alarm. Grandfather stood up. There was fear upon the monument of his face. This was not supposed to happen. Not here. Do you remember the light so bright you could see it through the wall? Then nothing. Then dark. And a ringing telephone. But we are here and now and this is not there and then,” concluded the Sheriff’s spokesbeing.

The Deft Bowman - episode 40

That's an alternate universe version of this?!

I was not expecting such a chilling experience from a wtnv episode but here I am, once again at awe! The writing in this podcast 👏👏

[honeybeebaaz]

Aw man so I re-listened to The Deft Bowman today and I’m pretty sure it’s one of the darkest wtnv episodes ever. I mean, like all of them (except maybe A Story About You), it skirts the darkness a little and doesn’t look at it face on, but the Sheriff’s Spokesbeing’s (aw yeah nonbinary characters) second-person description of nothing less than the end of the world by nuclear destruction is entirely chilling. And all the more since it’s not obvious on first listening; if you didn’t know, it could just be more drabble—makes me wonder what else I’ve been missing.

And this is our first real evidence (besides A Memory of Europe and The Traveler more indirectly) for the theory that Night Vale sits at the crossroads of many parallel universes: though our world came maybe the closest ever to nuclear Armageddon during the Able Archer exercise in 1983, no one actually died.
