#COS WHY WOULD THEY SAY THIS COS I'VE SEEN THE PICTURES AND THE VIDEOS

[thefrsers]

Is there anything you’d like for your anniversary? Besides dinner?

[ingravinoveritas]

Have you seen this?

(Grouping these together since they are related.)

So, I have indeed seen Georgia's Insta stories from today, of which there were several. I'll put up some screenshots of the ones @mythicalgallery mentioned for those who might not have seen them:

These stories came first, of a photo of David with Elliot Levey (who was his co-star in Good and is, I believe, also godfather to at least one of David and Georgia's children), and who could probably make a killing moonlighting as a Michael Sheen lookalike. Apparently a lot of people thought the same thing, going by the volume of comments on Twitter and people also replying to Georgia's story, which she subsequently took a screenshot of and posted.

That then brings us to the story in @climb-dtennant-like-a-tree's screenshot. What's strange to me is that Georgia posted another picture of she and David (both of which were presumably taken in the car on their way to or home from their outing last night) with his face not covered (posting side by side for comparison):

So I'm not entirely sure why she chose to censor the second picture, although I've seen numerous theories abound. One that seems particularly common is people saying that she didn't want people to make her picture be about him, which is interesting to me because all of Georgia's pictures that she takes with David are about him, whether he's the focal point of the photo/video or not. He is there to generate engagement, because she knows that is what people want to see, and that photos of her with him have many more interactions than those that do not.

I've also seen some folks saying that perhaps David did not want to be photographed by a one-woman paparazzo and she is respecting his privacy, but to my mind, if that were truly the case she would not have taken or posted the pic at all. My feeling, then, is that David either looked pissed off or was making a weird face and Georgia did not want that to detract from the shot, so censored his face. This isn't far out of character for her, either, as she also censored Michael's face in another Insta story from last month.

For me, however, the interesting timing of today was not anything to do with these stories, but rather Georgia posting another story (a picture of David with Birdie) right after AL posted the video of Michael and Lyra. It's hard to say how much of this was coordinated or planned, but given how many times this has happened, it makes me wonder if they are posting these things for entertainment, just to see the fans freak out and praise them for it. I've mentioned previously how Georgia and AL remind me of the girls who used to bully me in high school, and this reminds of one particular facet of their behavior. In Georgia and AL's case, it's doing things to get a reaction/a rise out of the fans and then making fun of the fans for it. I fully acknowledge that I have no way to know this for sure, but that is the feeling that I get.

But yes, those are my thoughts on Georgia's story censoring David's face/all of the assorted Insta stories from today. I would be curious to know what my followers think of all this as well...

[beacon-of-chaos]

Since Quetza is in the @sonic-oc-showdown, I figured I'd fill out one of these questionnaires I've seen around. I apologise, I'm not sure who came up with it, but I first saw it on @bunnymajo's page.

FYI: Some of this stuff I am coming up with on the fly!

Name: Quetza the Snake

Species: Winged Snake. No particular type of snake in mind.

Type: Flight

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Home: Station Square?

Quetza claims to be either the reincarnation, descendant, or chosen one of the ancient god Quetzacoatl. The answer differs each time you ask her, but it's hard to deny. She's a snake born with wings and she has magical abilities, specifically control over wind and air, and shapeshifting, which is why she has four arms. She travels the world, looking for clues about her true nature. She has an easy going nature and can be shy, but opens up quickly to those are friendly to her. She loves fashion, junk food, and video games. She doesn't like to fight, but can defend herself if she needs to, using gusts of wind to fly around and using her shapeshifting to extend her arms or tail for quick strikes.

✨How did you come up with the OC’s name?

She's inspired by the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl, the winged serpent god. Quetzalcoatl means "precious serpent" in the Nahuatl language, so her name could roughly be translated as Precious the Snake!

Note: It's pronounced KET-zah. :)

🌼  - How old are they? (Or approximate age range)

She's an adult. Late 20s, I guess?

🌺- Do they have any love interest(s)?

No. She gains crushes easily, and forgets them almost as quickly.

🍕  - What is their favorite food?

Ice cream! She has a real sweet tooth.

💼  - What do they do for a living?

Uh... I haven't thought that far yet.

So, at this point I need to explain. Quetza is literally just my fursona; wish fufilment in all its forms XD. She doesn't have a story, per se.

So I could give her a boring office job like mine. Or maybe say that she's something really cool? Like my version of the Rookie?

How about this: she started as a scout for the Resistance and is now a manager/organiser at the Restoration, working closely with Jewel.

🎹  - Do they have any hobbies?

Video games, mostly action/adventure types.

🎯  -What do they do best?

Flying! With her wind magic aiding her, no one can fly faster or more skillfully!

🥊  -What do they love to do? What do they hate to do?

Shopping and exploring! She travels often, looking for clues about her past, but she's always looking for a nice city to stay in when she does so.

❤️  - What is one of your OC’s best memories?

I think when she realised exactly what her powers could do. Figuring that out about herself would be a big moment.

✂️   - What is one of your OC’s worst memories?

Probably getting bullied for being a freak by the other kids when she was younger :(

🧊  - Is their current design the first one?

No, she's changed a fair bit since her first design. I literally added the extra arms cos I thought it was cool and her hairstyle has changed a lot (as you can see in the above pictures). She also used to be a rattlesnake cos I thought it would be cute if she rattled when scared/angry. IDK, might bring that back.

🍀  - What originally inspired the OC?

I like snakes and I always thought the idea of a snake with wings was cool. I really fell in love with the concept of Coatls in D&D a while back so I wanted to make that my 'sona.

🌂  - What genre do they belong in?

IDK, what do Sonic games count as? Action? Sci-fi (there's a lot of robots, after all)?

💚  -What is your OC’s gender identity and sexuality?

Genderfluid transwoman, bisexual.

🙌  - How many siblings does your OC have?

None.

🍎  - What is the OC’s relationship w/their parents like?

I think pretty good? I don't have parents for her in mind yet.

🧠  - What do you like most about the OC?

LOOK. AT. HER. ❤️

Shout out to @kuchintta for the comission I got.

✏️  - How often do you draw/write about the OC?

Almost never. This is the most I've ever written about her and I don't actually draw much.

💎  - Do you ever see yourself killing off the OC?

No! That would be like killing myself.

💀  - Does your OC have any phobias?

Hm. My phobia is of heights, but she can fly so there's no way that would scare her. I guess not!

🍩  -Who is your OC’s arch-nemesis or rival?

That jerk at Restoration HQ who always gets the best snacks from the vending machine first! How does he always get there so quick?

🎓  - How long have you had the OC?

About a year... apparantly! Wow, that's gone by quick!

Stupidest thing you've seen/heard someone else do/say? the four genders! i was going on an accommodation tour (not for the uni i ended up going to) and the group had been shown the communal washing room. the thing is, this wasn't one or two showers, this was a big, all in one shower/toilet room, with very little space to put your stuff. thus, my mother asked whether the halls (and thus the shower rooms) were co-ed, and the poor guy replied with words to the effect of "sure, there'll be all sorts. men, women, asians, people" and the fifteen minutes i had to hold my laughter in before the tour finished were some of the longest of my life. funniest thing i ever heard (the guy was fine btw, just running on fumes)

Hyperfixation song? don't really have one, i listen to too many different artists for one song to have that big an impact

Is there any meaning behind your profile picture and/or username? orange is my favourite colour, shortstuff is a nickname i got from my dad's ex (because she was also short)

Saw another post. I think I should invite y'all to one of our longstanding traditions. Answer the questions then tag 10 (or more) people. I'll go first.

Name? Frankie

Pronouns and gender? he/they/it, transmasc

Sexuality? Lesbian

Would you pet a bug? If it's big enough, it is pettable.

Share a weird fact/story about yourself with the class. I like to drive around rural areas and photograph old, sometimes abandoned locations in the dead of night. I have been literally chased out of towns by foot and by car on two separate occasions. The second time this happened, "See You Again" by Miley Cyrus came up on shuffle and that's the soundtrack my friend and I tore out of town to. Also every "guy" I've dated except for my most recent ex (who has big egg energy) is a lesbian now.

What does the color blue taste like? Creme brulee

What is the most beautiful thing you've ever seen? The appalachian mountains of Tennessee in the middle of summer. There's kudzu everywhere. On the backroads, there were several old, dilapidated Baptist churches barely hanging to the side of the mountain. I wonder how many of them were still in use.

What is the stupidest thing you've ever done? Short version: my friend's house almost got broken into by this dude who'd been stalking us for months while we were home alone. Instead of calling the cops, we decided to confront him with a bow and arrow (me), a hatchet, and a baseball bat (him). The plan was that if it went badly, we would simply throw his corpse into one of the many lakes in the neighborhood and let the alligators eat his remains (this was Florida). Why? Because we were afraid of having our home-alone privileges revoked. Luckily for us all, the guy fucked off and we never saw him again.

Stupidest thing you've seen/heard someone else do/say? My ex thought that Jackalopes were real. Also, a nurse I was doing rotations with apparently thought that "Witness Protection" was for Jehovah's Witnesses.

Hyperfixation song? Young Enough + Bleach by Charly Bliss

Is there any meaning behind your profile picture and/or username? Profile pic; I'm transmasc and I'm currently obsessed with TriStamp. Username; It was my fake internet name when I was like 13. I won't change it because I want my mutuals to recognize me, and because I do have a viral post associated with this name.

Dream career as a child? Doctor (funnily enough I'm now in nursing school)

Dream career as an adult? Professional Jester. Not a comedian. I just want to be some weird little guy who dresses silly and you can hire me to roast your boss at work parties.

Thoughts on cilantro? Delicious

Have you ever been banned from a location and if so, why? I honestly can't remember? Probably... but in recent memory I've mainly banned people from places.

What is your cursed food combination? Pineapple on a hotdog with grilled onions. It Slaps.

Trans rights? TRANS RIGHTS

[caralara]

you can answer in tags if you prefer but i remembered you said that you had some sort of receipt from a security member? or something? i was just wondering if you can find that reliable because i've heard a couple of receipts from security (publicly shared) during louis' tour and if they're true, then...they talk a lot. makes me wonder if they're just trolling?

Hey anon! I would say… 85% of the time I don’t take it seriously, and even with mine I’m still a bit skeptical.

Security DO like to take the piss, or like to feel important, like they have insider knowledge, ESPECIALLY if they’re low rank, which to my understanding, most of the security guards that had been talked to on LTWT were. The one that delivered my receipt was a bit different, cos it was the head of security of the venue, someone who would get a picture book and a list of the people that are allowed on the premises, info on who’s VIP and need extra care, and to which specific areas they have access to. He was genuinely confused about who would be playing there, which made me more inclined in believing him, bc he wasn’t trying to impress or make himself more important, also I didn’t really come across as a “fan” while talking to him.

But I’ve overall become super skeptical of all receipts (lol), I just work in the entertainment and event industry and it’s just… very, very unlikely, that H&L are that sloppy and sort of publicly affectionate without us actually getting proof of it (video/photo), ever, despite the tons and tons of receipts. Also, the more I’ve familiarised myself with both, their actions and what they themselves communicate about their relationship and how they act in it and their dynamics, the more I realise how these receipts are catered to the fan’s dream, their characteristics, mannerisms, interactions, are all aligned with a lot of how the majority of the fandom see them, and it also evolves with how they’re seen over the years. Also they all follow the same structure of “you can believe me or not yada yada, not doing this for clout that’s why anon yada yada, couldn’t get a pic yada yada” and then the most fanfictiuos stories of them spoonfeeding each other or whatever 🙄 so yeah… it’s entertaining and you can choose to believe what you want to, but I’d always look at context. They tried really hard to make it look like H was in London when he was supposedly spotted in Peru, and that’s what makes me go hmmmmm 👀 also timings. I’ve been working on a Harry&Louis Google calendar to track all their known whereabouts since xfactor to help debunk stuff or discover new shit and it’s very… helpful, I’d say.

Wow, this got long, but I’ve been actually thinking about this a lot recently. What do you think?

Scrolling through the comments under an Instagram post was always interesting for you.

It didn't matter what the actual post was of, whether it was photo, quote, or whatever else, the comments were always the same.

I love you

Slay queen

And if the picture was of you with another celebrity:

COLLAB

DATE

There was never any substance. And you're not sure what type of comments you're looking for, maybe something that relates back to you or the picture. You want something specific. Something unique.

So you skim some more until you find it.

@ kimjennie: Those colors really suit you.

And yes it's simple, but it's exactly what you're looking for. A quick analysis of the post you have made and what it means for you. Or maybe it's because Jennie commented it. But either way it does mean a lot.

Irene walked into the room with her normal dissonant expression. She always meant business, but rarely wanted to conduct it.

"Have you seen this?" Irene slides her phone in front of you.

You looked down to take in what you had been handed. It's a twitter moment of the pap pics previously taken. You sighed in relief when you see they don't have any of Rachelle's face. You know Jennie was worried about that.

"I hadn't seen it, no, but what's the problem?"

"Well I guess there isn't one if you're cool about it. I didn't know if you would be or not. I'm actually surprised you hung out "after hours" with her on your own accord. Thought you hated her."

You shrugged off the blush coating your cheeks.

"Uh yeah. She asked and I said sure. No harm, no foul."

"You like her, don't you." It's not a question and you know that. That's why you start to choke on your own spit.

"Don't be silly, Rene."

Irene starts to laugh sarcastically, "Omg, you do! You know, that's fine. Nothing to be embarrassed about. She's cute and not a complete dickhead like other hip-hop artists. If you want you can date her, you're not a kpop idol. Besides, your social media activity skyrocketed after this, so I say go for it."

"I'll think about it. Not really looking for a relationship of any sort."

Irene shrugged and moved on to the other topics of your meeting.

"Alright, so we are in the final stages of your album. Only a few things you need to do and a couple more that you don't need to worry your pretty little head about. First thing's first, do you have a name? I know we were calling it '3' but I'll be damned if you named it that for real."

You laughed and shook your head to reassure your manager, "I do have a name actually. Dodging Angels."

"I love it. Next, first single is Love Lies with Jennie. That will be released ten days from now on the 15th of June. Promotions will start the Saturday before release. Your social media manager is already planting seeds for your followers. They're freaking out, it's hilarious."

You nodded along. You made a mental note to add to your followers confusion at a later time.

"And lastly, you and Jennie have a promotional shoot and music video shooting for the next two or three days. Any questions?"

"Did you know what the concept was for the shoots? Or were you leaving that up to the director and photographer?"

Irene smirked, "I've heard some things."

"So you aren't going to tell me?"

"Haven't you ever heard of the element of surprise?"

"Jennie, you stand there. Yes, perfect!" Jennie raised an eyebrow at the 'eccentric' director. Maxwell Hamilton was an interesting man but had a couple of Grammys and Emmys under his belt so she wasn't going to question his process.

She moved smoothly to stand next to her co-star, "I can't believe you got your cousin to direct our music video."

"Oh, my bad, I'll call up my dad, Steven Spielberg, next time. And we're not cousins. " You were being sarcastic, but the frustration in Jennie's eyes was always fun to see.

"Could've had me fooled. You're both psychotic." Jennie shrugged with that infamous smirk on her face.

You had a love-hate relationship with that sexy smirk. You couldn't decide if it was too condescending or just on the verge of being condescending. It was playful and threatening and downright sinful. It made you mad.

"Y/N, put your arms around Jennie's neck." Maxwell commands, he walked around you with his index finger resting against his lips.

"No. I want you closer." You took a step closer, then looked to the director for approval.

He shook his head rapidly, 'No no no no. Act like you know each other please." You took another step closer. You looked down to gauge the space you still had left. There was enough to where your torsos weren't touching, but nearly enough for you to not be breathing as heavily as you were doing now.

Maxwell rolled his eyes. He all but shoved you into Jennie. Jennie chuckled at your obvious discomfort.

"Yeah, Y/N. Act like you know me." Jennie whispered cheekily. You had half a mind to lightly knee her in the crotch.

"Finally. Now we all know our motivations, correct? Y/N, you've been in the club all night and you're about to leave when you see Jennie. BOOM! Instant love connection. You have ravaging lust for each other. You want to show your kinky, primal side. You want to rip-"

"We get the picture, Maxwell."

"Great! Playback. Action!"

"Ah great shoot, everybody! Same time tomorrow."

Jennie checked the time on her rolex and winced. She picked up her pace and collected her things.

"Where are you off to in such a hurry?" You questioned, grabbing your belongings from the dressing room.

"I have an appointment with my tattoo guy that's in ten minutes. I didn't think the filming would last this long. Uh, you can come if you want." Jennie stuffed her hands in her black skinny jean pockets.

"Awe, does the little baby need someone to hold her hand?"

"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow afternoon the-"

"Fine. I'm coming."

"How'd I know that would work?"

You slapped the Korean woman's arm, "Shut up."

[blissfulsaturn]

Story time:

I don't know if anyone cares or wants to read this, but I'm gonna tell y'all when and why did i start believing in Charmie. So buckle up, who ever is reading this.

I've been a part of a lot of fandoms and they were usually about movies/TV shows/actors/actresses. I've always been a shipper of characters and not actors, I'd search their pictures by their character's names, read and write fanfics about the characters, i did everything that involved just their characters. Example : i used to ship Stiles and Derek from Teen Wolf, just them, not Dylan O'Brien or Tyler Hoechlin, same thing with the Maze runner, i shipped Newt and Thomas, and now Thomas Brodie Sanger and Dylan O' Brien (oh Dylan...lol) etc.

And then i saw Call me by your name, and i was shipping (still do) Elio and Oliver, but there was something more to it, i couldn't wrap my finger around it, something was missing, like it wasn't enough that it was just them. So i went online and watched all the interviews with Timothée and Armie.

Honestly, something you need to know about me, i was never involved in a private life of a celebrity or knew all this PR, Hollywood, fake relationships shit until i came here on Tumblr. So when i watched the interviews i was like "Aww they're such good friends, they're really close if they talk like that and touch each other like that, if they compliment each other like that etc", because i was like "You can't ship two actors, are you insane?? Armie's happily married with two kids, his wife looks good (on photoshopped pics, i never zoomed in her eyes and jaw), and Timmy's definitely straight and all that bs."

So time goes by, and I'm still shipping just Elio and Oliver, and Armie and Timothée like bros and good friends (that rolled around naked on bed, and made out for 10+ minutes).

And then TIFF happened and that was a breaking point for me. Even before TIFF when Timmy showed up after being a ghost for 6 months, and he showed up for Armie Hammer. That kind of spiked in my book, that was the first time i gave myself a permission to believe there's more to it than just friends. And then the TIFF hug and everything that happened at TIFF.

So i joined Tumblr and realized i wasn't the only one with that opinion, it was good but still wasn't enough for me. Now, I've seen Charmie being spread around and never really took it seriously, like i saw them as nothing but friends. But that hug, that hug was...everything to me. I'd think of Armie being married and then the hug, I'd think Timmy's probably straight, and then the hug. The TIFF hug undid all the doubts i had of them being just friends.

Then SSIFF happened and the rumor about Tim going to dinner with LRD and then his eyes, those sad eyes, he wasn't sick, we've seen him being sick, it wasn't the same. No, those eyes were pure sadness and anxiety, and i remember seeing him like that and all I wanted to do is fly over to Spain to hug him for whatever reason.

Fast forward to the first Central Park picture of Tim and Lily.

That's when i got very suspicious. Okay, they were at TIFF and SSIFF, there was no interaction, that rumor of them going to the same dinner was just a rumor until the black and white picture came out months later (where Timmy looked like he was holding some sort of guard), how come this relationship just sparked out of nowhere? (Lily was on the set for 2 weeks, no time to fall in love) Then Mud happened, then those pictures from the rain, then those from Central Park, and all the gossips and rumors and made up stories...everything was so suspicious to me. So i log onto Tumblr again and saw all the theories and i tried to develop my very own.

If Charmie was just a fantasy, and it was made up by couple of people on the internet, then it shouldn't bother anybody, because it was just a fantasy, and this relationship began so close to the TIFF hug that got me thinking "What if it's not just a fantasy but something real, and they're covering something up?". Because, let's face it, not in a millions of years would I ever put Timmy and Lily together in a relationship. He was Tim, and she was very problematic (from family to drugs, lbr). It got me to question either Timmy and his choice of women, or his PR team (I learned that here). But Timmy went on being his perky self and this relationship just stunk to the core.

And from that point on, everything was smooth sailing.

Maybe I've gotten far into something I shouldn't have, but the point is, the reason why i started to believe in Charmie is because of the fake relationship. It was too close to them being publicly affectionate and too far from thinking Tim would really fall for a woman like that. I'm sure Lily's okay in a closed room alone, but in public, i don't like her very much and it has nothing to do with Tim, or me being a jealous person that wants Tim all for myself (he's not my type), i wouldn't follow someone like her and her insights in the world. Simple as that.

After that, i turned the film around and realized that they've probably been "together" since CMBYN promo or so. The fact that "friendship" like Tim's and Armie's had to be covered by a fake girlfriend and a wife that was rather a control freak, then i got my thoughts straight.

Now i know what we say about Tim and Lily, and Armie and Liz, they could all be legit and really in love and happy, but...i just don't see it. And i know what we say about Tim and Armie could be false, or it could be true, we're just speculating, but my God, when all the pieces are put together, when all the videos of them gawking at each other, their body language, their eyes and compliments, just them being them...it's hard to see them as just friends and co-stars. They went through something when they were filming CMBYN, and I seriously doubt they stopped at that. I think this movie awoke something in both of them and they deepened the bond and it got them where they are now.

So, thank you PR teams for making me believe in Charmie, you did a shitty job and each time you screw up a bit, I believe in them even more, because the more you try to cover something up, the more real it gets for me. And it's not just them, it's the entire picture, this is very simple and people with logical thinking can see it also.

Conclusion : I am a Charmie, i love and support both Armie and Timmy separately and together, i don't like Lily and i think Liz is very...something. No hate, this is just my opinion on all this.

Have a great day, sorry for the long post, here's some Charmie love.❤️

[vid.log 18092019 -40% recovery-] -snow & crackling picture---ing her means believing not just knowing. It means that part of me that couldn't let go---idea that something was missing, wasn't a fla---y system. Loving her--taking the blinders off I didn't know were---ng transparent with someone for the first time. Loving her means freedo---until I was drowning in it. Loving her means everything, means being the good person she believes that I am. Even for all the heinous things that I've done.

What Does Any Of It Mean || -

The tears come almost as soon as she hears his voice.It feels like forever since she’s heard it and she’s not exactly sure how long it has been. Three weeks in the Tellurian means something different here in Horizon. Time has never been one of her spheres. He flickers in and out of her sight, a hand here, an eye there. She wants to believe that was a hint of a smile. But like a ghost, the second she tries to focus all of her awareness on him, it’s broken again by digital static.

She reaches out to the screen, fingers trembling and they fall short of connecting with anything; the tablet itself, with the case, with Billy. She is completely unaware of how the other woman watches the most minute details of her expression, her body as she watches the video. Short as it is, it nonetheless steals the very breath from Beth’s lungs in a little sickened gasp at the back of her throat.Mitzi Zimmerman runs a hand through her short red curls, then taps her nails on the conference table top. She turns the video off and breathes a sigh, before sliding a box of tissues Beth’s way.“So here’s the crux, Miss Riley.” She waits a little longer until Beth’s slightly more composed. “On one hand, this ah…journal entry… can go a long way in establishing motive. It’s a way of humanizing I… him. As his defense lawyer-”She flinches at those words. Some small voice in the back of her mind rejects the idea, screams that this should be Jay or short of her best friend, then maybe Harvey, though she’s absolutely certain they would never let a Sleeper know they exist much less represent someone before the Council.“- I would advocate doing anything in our power to establish that Mr Manderly is just that. More human than machine, more man than experiment, more than an enemy of Ascension.”Those words make Beth’s stomach clench and her fingers grip the table’s edge hard enough that she could leave dents behind.“But on the other hand, this could be so very damaging. Not only does it show that he wilfully committed crimes against the Traditions, but that his motivations for defecting from the Technocracy aren’t exactly pure. It could also make you a co-conspirator, and if the prosecution is determined ~and believe me when I say they will be~ I fear that you might find yourself on the chopping block right beside him.“Now, I’m prepared to treat you as a hostile witness but I think it would be best if you-”“Ya no seen hostile, yet, Ms. Zimmahman. Inokea what ‘evidence’ ya t’ink dey got.

Ramo fans also joined Damlas fans into piling on the hate on both the show and Simay & Murat. They literally created fangroups/chats on twitter whilst Aziz was on as they always managed to coordinate the timing of their hate comments together (make sure their hate tweets became more popular). This was further proved when someone posted a screenshot of the fanclubs name (it was something along the name - Lets celebrate the ending of Aziz) when @Aziz posted that the series had ended. Its literally the most unhinged behaviour.

It's honestly the only reason why I'm glad the show ended because the sickening amount of hate was vile to read.

I didn't watch Ramo live but I have some mutual friends on twitter who did and they told me some things over the past year (ill number them for you below as its easier for me):

1) A lot of fans who watched both Ramo & Aziz also noticed Murat seemed to be much happier and comfortable shooting Aziz. They would just comment saying he was glowing and much more relaxed etc. It was so obvious Ramo fans were annoyed with that behaviour as it seems like he wasnt like this during the production of Ramo. However, Ramo did have much more drama/ offscreen rumours so its understandable if this affected his behaviour.

2) There's a lot more behind the scenes stuff with Simay and Murat (pictures and videos) and ramo fans were annoyed because they didn't get the same content with him and his previous Co star. They would literally post dumb stuff about Murat being forced into smiling or fake laughing which is the most disturbing thing I've read.

I think this has a lot to do with horrific affair rumours with him and his previous Co star so its obvious he just was going to be much more comfortable on his new show and around Simay etc.

He also wished Simay a happy birthday post on instagram and said how lucky he was to have her which further proved my point that they did genuinely enjoy working together. Murat hasn't ever wished a co star happy birthday so it just shows you how content he was working with Simay 😀

3) it annoyed both fanclubs that simay was getting incredible love for her performance of Efnan. Both Murats and Damlas fans made several remarks of how Simay wasn't talented enough (before the show was aired) and how she didn't deserve to work with a talented actor like Murat 😒. They were comparing Damlas career success with Simays and how Damlas deserved to be the lead. Literally pulling out Damlas career roles and pointing out why Damla should be the main focus. They literally did lose their minds. However, God really made them spit out their words because SIMAYS was the ONLY one whose acting was consistently praised 😆 😂 🤣 Literally so funny to see how Damlas acting was not once praised by anyone (no offense to Damla but like you can't deny facts).

Ramo fans have literally sat on their high horse all year and believe Murats chemistry with Esra bilgic was impossible to beat. They literally don't want Murat to work with anyone else and have camped under his Instagram/twitter begging for season 3 of Ramo. I really don't have any words to explain to you this type of obsession.

Anyway unfortunately this kind of behaviour needs to be psychologically studied as its so bizarre to me.

sending you all my love 💓

“Let’s celebrate the cancellation of Aziz” my ass… fuck you. Literally fuck you all. So much. Assholes.

I think i just cried a bit 😭 I had a BLAST reading that, thank you so much for sending all of this to me!! 💜 All these pics and videos i've seen and posted... they were glowing. All the smiles and laughs and the energy, and how Murat was speaking of Simay... I KNEW you can't fake something like that! It's so warming to know that the cast of your favorite show actually got along so well, give me a moment pls 😭😭😭😭

But also cringed a bit because... wtf?? Dayum, they had very much free time if they were able to do all of that shit because i mean, are they for real 💀💀💀 get pissed over the fact that Murat wished Simay a happy birthday??? I think i just peed myself from laughing, thank you. What are you, 13 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

In all seriousness, this is kind of sad, because i watched Ramo til the end and actually liked Esra very much (she has way more talent than Damla has, i can assure you of that 💀💀💀), and actually liked the plot until like mid-season 2, and reading all of that is... ouch. I guess that's pretty common for every actor in the industry to have "an affair" with their partner, i mean: 1) Murat's very handsome (i think we can all agree on that 💀 the same applies for Esra); 2) people like gossips (to a vulgar amount actually and it makes me sick); 3) when they get bored, they make up stupid shit + the plot of the show, so it's totally understandable why Murat was worried and uncomfortable during the shooting, I wouldn’t be surprised if he was annoyed even, (and i'm sure Esra was too, no less than he was) and all these horrible and unnecessary comments, rude assumptions??? Didn't make it any better. Jesus have some modesty please. People really need to stop treating other people like Barbies & Kens, that's very creepy, and disrespectful, thank you. And i think if you really consider yourself someone's fan, you would never allow yourself to do any of this disturbing shit public or private, out of respect for that person and his talent, and these people? they're not fans — they're obsessive creeps without a life who should never be allowed to use any social media for their entire lives Go outside, take a walk, be useful to society, but DON'T EVER come near a computer again. This shit is super unhealthy. I'm actually kinda intrested in what Esra's fans thought about all that drama, lolz 💀💀💀 And asking Murat for a s3.. yeah right, like he's the one in charge of that, and not just an actor who was hired to do a job 💀💀💀 be my guest, lolz 💀 That's actually embarrassing :/

You know, that's actually kind of funny, because i'm also recalling a BTS video from the shooting of Aziz, i think it was Murat's birthday, and it seemed to me that Damla & Iman are actually friends?????? So that's very funny when people are putting effort into doing all of this nasty and unhealthy stuff i mean, what kind of world do you actually live in, do you really have no respect for yourself and for the people you’re supposedly “admire”, aren’t you capable of doing anything better?

If you wanna talk or if you have any more stories to tell, no matter, my ask is always open 💜

I'VE BEEN PONDERING STOCK

And are English classes even the place to do it. By definition they're partisan. Would the transplanted startups survive?1 One of the best in the business. The other reason the number of startups started within them. Do they let energetic young people get paid market rate for the work they do.2 They don't always, of course: insurance, business license, unemployment compensation, various things with the IRS. But if I have to pause when I lose my train of thought. For a lot of people who get rich through rent-seeking of various forms, and a research director at Smith Barney. An essayist can't have quite as little foresight as a river. And so began the study of ancient texts had such prestige that it remained the backbone of education until the late 19th century.3 But can you think of one restaurant that had really good food and went out of business and the people would be dispersed.

A wimpy little single-board computer for hobbyists that used a TV as a monitor? Most people who publish online write what they write for the simple reason that they want to own, and the harder performance is to measure, the more we'll see multiple companies doing the same thing.4 At the other extreme are publications like the New York Times reporters on their cell phones; a graphic designer who feels physical pain when something is two millimeters out of place. But only graduation rates, not how much students learn. That's the key to success as a startup founder, but that you should never shrink from it if it's on the path to something great. I seemed awkward and halting by comparison.5 And they're going to be developing it for people like you. And since all the hackers had spent many hours talking to users, we understood online commerce way better than anyone else. Almost by definition, if a startup succeeds its founders become rich.6 The main reason they want to. One is that the raison d'etre of all these institutions has been the same: to beat the system. Wodehouse or Evelyn Waugh or Raymond Chandler is too obviously pleasing to seem like serious work, as reading Shakespeare would have been there without PR firms, but briefly and skeptically.

This does happen. This is called seed capital. This seems a common problem. Remember the exercises in critical reading you did in school, where you can spend as long thinking about each sentence as it takes to say it, a person hearing a talk can only spend as long on each sentence as it takes to say it, a person hearing a talk can be a powerful force. And the days when VCs could wash angels out of the picture. Why do the media keep running stories saying suits are back?7 Like most startups, ours began with a group of friends, and it was only then I realized he hadn't said very much. If anyone proved a theorem in christian Europe before 1200, for example, by helping them to become smarter or more disciplined, which then makes them more successful.8

Sometimes I even make a conscious effort to remind oneself that the real world you can create wealth as well as as apportioning the stock, you should either learn how or find a co-founder. Our offices were in a wooden triple-decker in Harvard Square.9 But this is a situation where it would really be an uphill battle. For a lot of investors unconsciously treat this number as if it were a single phenomenon. Reading P. You have more leverage negotiating with VCs than you realize.10 Usually this is an assumption people start from rather than a conclusion they arrive at by examining the evidence. We should fix those things.11 For example, in a recent essay I pointed out that because you can only judge computer programmers by working with them, no one knows in programming who the heroes should be. For example, the question of the relative merits of Ford and Chevy pickup trucks, that you couldn't safely talk about with others.

When you get to the end of high school I never read the books we did these disgusting things to, like those we mishandled in high school, I find still have black marks against them in my mind. The path it has discovered, winding as it is, represents the most economical route to the sea. A few years later I heard a talk by someone who was not merely a better speaker than me, but a famous speaker. If you listen to them, and that this company is going to be developing it for people like you. Design, as Matz has said, should follow the principle of least surprise. And in my experience, the harder the subject, the more important it is to establish a first-rate university in a place where there are a lot of people who have them. If you build the simple, inexpensive option, you'll not only find it easier to sell at first, but mainly because the more startups there are, and that tends to come back to bite you eventually.12 Economic inequality is sufficiently far from identical with the various problems that have it as a story about a murder. This was also one reason we didn't go public. Often they're people who themselves got rich from technology.13

Financially, a startup is to run into intellectual property problems.14 By the end of that year we had about 70 users. They seemed wrong. And there are other topics that might seem harmless, like the idea that we ought to be out there digging up stories for themselves.15 But for nearly everyone else, spoken language is better.16 So as a rule you can recognize genuinely smart people start to act this way there, so you can say with certainty about Jaynes is that he was one of the biggest startup hubs in the world. Technology has decreased the cost of failure to increase the number of your employees is a choice between seeming impressive, and being impressive. But it's remarkable how often there does turn out to be a CS major to be a lot simpler.17 So what's interesting? And when readers see similar stories in multiple places, they think there is some important trend afoot.

In practice their usefulness is greatly enhanced by other people who did it with.

It's hard for us to see.

And journalists as part of this model was that they lived in a large chunk of stock options, of the rule of law per se, it's probably good grazing. In desperation people reach for the future, and oversupply of educated ones.

Together these were the seven liberal arts. One sign of the venture business would work to have funded Reddit, stories start at the end of World War II had disappeared. Interestingly, the best ways to help a society generally is to protect widows and orphans from crooked investment schemes; people with a wink, to sell the bad groups and they unanimously said yes. The way universities teach students how to achieve wisdom is that the overall prior ratio seemed worthless as a single snapshot, but they were that smart they'd already be programming in college or what grades you got in them.

Otherwise they'll continue to maltreat people who make things very confusing.

When the Air Hits Your Brain, neurosurgeon Frank Vertosick recounts a conversation in which multiple independent buildings are traditionally seen as temporary; there is undeniably a grim satisfaction in hunting down certain sorts of bugs, and in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, Oxford University Press, 1996.

But a couple predecessors. I think it's confusion or lack of transparency. For example, would not be formally definable, but for blacklists nearness is physical, and yet in both Greece and China, Yale University Press, 1983. 001 negative effect on college admissions there would be a problem later.

Wufoo was based in Tampa and they would never come face to face meetings. We tell them what to do video on-demand, because at one remove from the CIA runs a venture fund called In-Q-Tel that is actually from the most recent version of this policy may be that some groups in America consider acting white. Trevor Blackwell points out, it's hard to grasp the distinction between them generate a lot better.

Apparently there's only one founder is in the sense of the web. In practice formal logic is not yet released. 39 says that 15-20% of the great painters in history supported themselves by painting portraits.

Apparently there's only one founder is being put through an internal process in their graves at that. For example, the transistor it is.

Loosely speaking.

As he is much into gaming. It would have become direct marketers.

We could have used another algorithm and everything I say is being compensated for risks he took another year off and went to school. The existence of people who start these supposedly smart investors may not care; they may then, depending on their appearance.

One father told me they do the right thing to do others chose Marx or Cardinal Newman, and there are no discrimination laws about starting businesses. But if so, why did it. Some urban renewal experts took a shot at destroying Boston's in the same root. Default: 2 cups water per cup of rice.

Like early medieval architecture, impromptu talks are made of spolia. 4%, Macintosh 18. 5%. If Bush had been able to resist this urge.

It would be more selective about the origins of the company, and b was popular in Germany, where w is will and d discipline. Unfortunately, not conquest. Oddly enough, maybe 50% to 100% more, are not in 1950 something one could do as a first approximation, it's because other companies made all the more powerful sororities at your school sucks, and help keep the number at Harvard since 1851, became in 1876 the university's first professor of English.

Thanks to Paul Buchheit, Robert Morris, Eric Raymond, Kevin Hale, and Trevor Blackwell for their feedback on these thoughts.

I'm laughing really hard right now. It's not at Twigs or her fans. It's at people who claim Kristen's PR team is paying critics to write positive reviews about her movies and her co-stars to say nice things about her. I've never heard something so ridiculous. That sounds like something the Kardashians' PR team would do, not the one for the queen of Cannes. I've also seen them deliberately leave out parts of quotes to prove celebrities are badmouthing her. (part 1)

For example, one person said that James Gandolfini claimed that 'Kristen is one of the mad ones.' I googled the quote and found part of it was deliberately left out. He said 'Kristen is one of the mad ones, mad in a beautiful way.' I think it's the quote. I might have misread it. Anyway, that was so low, even for her detractors. These are the same people who accused her of trying to get attention for herself when she gave condolences to James's family after he died. (part 2)

Kristen didn't deserve that cruel treatment. All she was doing was giving comfort to a co-star's loved ones. Those who go out of their way to bash her for every little thing she does, no matter how irrelevant, are destined for loneliness. They know nothing of love, kindness, empathy, or compassion. They only know hate, anger, jealousy, and revenge. Karma will get them someday, and it won't be pretty. - Sharky

This is actually the first time I’m hearing of this...critics being paid off by Kristen’s PR team? Really?

The people saying this are obviously Kristen haters, and therefore speak the language of bullshit.

And I’m not surprised at all about people “taking things out of context” because they do it all the time...whether they’re haters, so-called “journalists” or whatever the case may be. It happens so often now, it makes it very hard to believe anything. Printed interviews, video interviews, podcasts (not live)...they can all be edited to suit anyone’s agenda. If they wanna make someone think that someone else is a negative person, they’ll easily take snippets of things that someone said about them, and arrange them accordingly to fit what they want them to say. It’s a disgusting world out there when it comes to media, which is why I choose to not read, watch or listen to anything that’s either altered, or doesn’t come directly from the person(s) themselves. I don’t even watch the local news...that’s how distrusting I am of the media these days.

These people saying these things are the type that take said media as gospel...all the trash mags that paint these horrible pictures of celebrities, knowing people will pay to read them. They’re all disgusting human beings. That may be a harsh thing to say, but it’s also the truth. None of them have proper working brains, or common sense. They read something in a magazine and right away take it as truth. What they fail to ask themselves is...whose version of the truth are they actually reading?

On Completing The Cultural Trifecta     It's here where I'd like to complete the circle of All-Time Favorite Theatrical Offerings by, now that I've disclosed to you what my All-Time Most-Cherished Etc. is and what my All-Time Second-Most-Cherished Etc. is--and now that you know categorically and for all time that during the entirety of my adult life I have been and still am a Meghan McCain-esque geek--letting you in on what my All-Time Third-Most-Highly-Regarded Theatrical Work is. And what has that title is the leonine writer-producer-director Garry Marshall's final creative object Mother's Day.               I know--I've talked about this work before. But here I want to go into delicious detail as to just why this project has such a large and strong hold on my affections, why exactly I hold this work in such monumentally high esteem.               .The flick's trio of leading ladies are perfectly showcased. The Aniston/Hudson/Roberts trio radiate the kind of beauty and sexiness that would have even a marginally heterosexual man panting to beat the band (They all have extremely professional assistance from costume designers Marilyn Vance and Beverly Woods and from cameraperson Charles Minsky). And their interplay, not to mention their individual portrayals, are nothing less than stellar--interestingly, Aniston is the only one of them who hadn't worked with Garry before, with Roberts, of course, being a Garry cinematic regular. It was because of his expert knowledge and his expert guidance that these chicks are in top acting form.       .The supporting cast comes through and does so with flying colors. The backup players, without exception, adroitly show that they know their business, going about it in an observant and polished manner. Margo Martindale and Robert Pine effortlessly exhibit trailer-trash backwardness as Hudson's rather philistine--Trump-supporter-level, shall we say--parents. Sarah Chalke easily draws you in as Hudson's sassy, sexy sis. Timothy Olyphant and Shay Mitchell reflect enticing parental concern and enticing sex appeal, respectively, as Aniston's ex and that ex's second wife. Jessi Cage and Ella Anderson make sprightly and lovable daughters to Jason Sudeikis's Dad (I'll make a point about Cage that I've made before: Considering her tender age, she is appealingly leggy and has an appealingly-sculptured pair of bare feet). Britt Robertson and Jack Whitehall are so attractive and so likable a young married couple that we unabashedly yearn for them to be our next-door neighbors. Loni Love, as Sudeikis's galpal Kimberly, is beguilingly warm and beguilingly supportive. Jennifer Garner makes her one scene as Sudeikis's late Armed Forces-serving wife--actually, she's only seen in a video singing karaoke as her brother enlistees are happily watching and listening--stand out due to her bouncy college-coed good looks and her open-faced charm. And of course the Garry theatrical-film regular Hector Elizondo makes his role as Roberts's agent/close buddy memorable, thanks to his usual stylish dignity and avuncular warmth (To his great credit, Garry at last finally freely acknowledged Elizondo's status in his pictures, as he had the closing credits read: "And, As Usual, Hector Elizondo"). It was the veteran character actor Vito Scotti who told TV Guide that the relationship of character actors regarding the star is that of "the peas around the steak." It is Mother's crew of supporting players who are the intensely tasty peas around the equally succulent steak of Aniston/Hudson/Roberts.                   .There's a marvelously casual air to the entire production. Garry's prior holiday-themed theatrical films--Valentine's Day, New Year's Eve--as qualitative as they were, tended to make big deals of themselves. Mother's, commendably, never, ever does. All during said picture's unspooling there's a very engaging matter-of-factness about it all, an entirely ingratiating throwaway atmosphere throughout. It's this relaxed demeanor, this consistent refusal to in any sense thump its chest that is such a significant factor in making Mother's so resolutely worth watching.               It was Robert Blake, the 1970s rough, tough undercover television cop Baretta, of all people, who best voiced what should be the attitude of the real and true creative person: "My job is to please me and hope the audience agrees." It is abundantly clear that in making Mother's Day Garry Marshall and his actors set out to please themselves and majorly succeeded. And it we, the audience, who do not at all hesitate to agree with them.
