he did. my husband tried. he tried to warn them. he did. he said to them, “i’m not as into this as my wife is. i just like looking at cars, but she’s got all the facts and specs and everything. she’s practically a walking encyclopedia.”

and they didn’t believe him. they laughed. they shrugged it off. they shrugged me off. they were warned. and yet they still decided to try and put me to the test. they were warned. they were warned of what would happen to them. and yet they didn’t listen.

their ambition made them icarian. their folly turned my warmth from brilliant to sweltering.

their hubris led to their humiliation.

they were warned. but ambition makes men bold.

this is all just a very dramatic way of saying that grown men decided to play a game of, “oh you’re a fan? prove it” only to have their asses handed to them by their opponent.

this was the opponent btw:

#my big 3:#fangirl #fandom #formula 1 #imagine getting humbled by bitch who’s 5’4 and wearing a cowboy hat purchased at build a bear #bc said bitch had gone to build a bear to make the stuffed version of leo leclerc #ya know #leo leclerc #he’s charles leclerc’s puppy #and i borrowed his cowboy hat #austin gp 2024 #us gp 2024 #cota 2024 #i love embarrassing ppl #like #why are you trying to ‘gotcha’ me at a gosh darn f1 race #several of these grown men started yelling at the shuttle bus drivers bc they weren’t transporting tens of thousands of ppl fast enough #so i yelled at them back in defense of the drivers #only i didn’t say ‘they’re trying their best’ or something like that #i said: why are you in such a rush? you gotta get home to your dad on the mouth?#followed up by an incredibly southern:#i don’t know why y’all’re actin like you ain’t got no raisin but jesus h christ and the donkey can’t y’all just quit actin ugly?#anywho #bitches hate me for my sense of whimsy #and frankly insane amount of knowledge about formula 1 racing

On average, what is the total MONTHLY amount that you spend on dining out*?

*(This doesn't only count going out to restaurants, but also stuff like picking up fast food to bring home, getting a coffee on the way to work, getting a premade sandwich from a grocery store deli during lunch, buying a quick snack from a convenience store or food cart whilst walking somewhere, ordering a pizza or any other food to be delivered to your home, etc.)

*(If you often dine out in groups/as a household: calculate and divide the costs so that you get a Per Person average. This is for YOU individually, NOT the total household/group costs)

(I'm sure polls similar to this have been made before (very common topic), I just haven't personally seen one that I can remember, so, I was curious to do my own! I was discussing this with a group of people today and it was very interesting to see how widely the number varied between individuals. :0c )

(Reblog for bigger sample size if you can, and feel free to explain your answer in tags if there's anything extra to add!)

#polls #tumblr polls #I'm mostly in the 0/1 - 25$ category. Maybe the rare month is a bit over $25 if there's something specific going on like birthday.#Which I'm NEVER eating in an actual restaurant (erm... covid... plus I just hate restaurant environments. i would rather pickup #the food and bring it home to a peaceful quiet environment that I control lol). But more typically like stopping by a grocery store deli #section or something. I don't have coffee that much. And I can't eat fast food much due to my health issues/diet restriction stuff #so if I'm out like coming back from an appointment and I start feeling really sick and weak. I know that a hamburger will just #blow up my system and cause nausea or something. So I try to pick the breadiest most #neutral looking turkey sandwich at the safeway deli to eat during the hour ride home or whatever lol #I actually kind of wish I could do stuff like get food more often vecause it would take the burden of cooking everything off of me #but.. alas... Money... and Health Things... T o T #I still wouldn't do it ALL the time but like... once a week instead of once a month or something.. or maybe turning into a coffee #person.. I do love drinks A LOT .. i am a drink person who will have 5 different drinks sipping on at all times #But i just have to make them all myself mostly lol #And I cant really have too much coffee since it will make me sick. so like.. teas and juice mostly #When I inevitably become a millionaire by never using social media never networking and only finishing one #sculpture every 5 months which I dont even post about or sell - then I shall... get more drinks..#I will somehow wean my body onto coffee and drink one a day solely for the ritual of it #Though even then... I would still probably just like.. buy the mateirals to make it at home or something #Like if you had a million dollars you could just buy a kitchen grade ice cream machine and other stuff to make your own milkshakes and #coffees and smoothies and bubble teas. Genuinely I think even if I were a BILLIONAIRE I would still look at playing likr $8 for a single #coffee and go .. uh.... I could just buy the equipment to make this and then save that money. PLUS. its in my house now so no need to #have to leave. I can make my own drinks in the comfort of home. .. ideal..#Like no matter how rich I ever got I would still have the lingering scroogey stinginess. like i am NOT paying for that. I will jus #make it myself. Especially if it was an Everyday thing. Anythign thats part of my routine I try to optimize and make as efficient as #possible... ANYWAY.. In an IDEAL world I would get treats. but probably not that much. as on a daily basis it would start to get #to me and I would just save up to buy kitchen machinery if I was rich lol

I can’t think about Angela Shepherd in That Was Then or else I’ll start crying.

#Angela you deserved to be protected and safe beginning in your own home #you didn’t deserve to be failed by the adults in your life #Angela you didn’t deserve to grow up fast #you didn’t deserve to be left behind while your brothers charged forward into the inly life they could imagine for themselves #you didn’t deserve the statutory pregnancy scare or shotgun wedding #you didn’t deserved to be harassed by your father in law #yes even after getting pony and mark jumped again you didn’t deserve to be made into a joke and tossed in front of your yard alone while #passed out drunk #Angela I know why you’re like this and I’m sorry it’s how you feel you need to survive #Angela you’re just a kid #yipyaps #that was then this is now #angela shepard #laur reads twttin #curly shepard #Tim shepherd

once upon a time, single cate made a text post about watching all her married friends have their rough edges sanded off so that they could transform into the coolest possible versions of themselves. I said part of my wanting to be married was about genuinely wanting that to happen, wanting someone to put me through the wringer and hold me accountable so that I would develop as a person.

I have been married a month and I am happy to announce that that process starts immediately.

#couldn’t find the old post (shocker)#we were talking yesterday and we were like wow so both of us totally had some coping mechanisms that were not helping us cope #and we were getting away with it because nobody was paying close enough attention to us in our parents’ homes #so we could hide and cope badly #but when you live in a small apartment with your spouse who is paying A LOT of attention to you!!!#those counterproductive strategies get exposed SO FAST #(this text post is here to balance out the mushiness of the last one)#I will still not be elaborating at this time

ive talked to a lot of ppl who have taken vyvanse now and i think ik a bit more on how i need to live on it

#1) dopamine drops on lower dosages or high dosage but in the evenings feel like hell and it wont ever stop you have to just breathe #you will stop breathing well and you wont notice it so you have to remember to breathe deeply. this helps immensely for some reason #2) you will stop processing the existence of food as a consumable thing and not just an object like Table or Cardboard. you will not want to #eat anything. you have to buy meal replacement shakes. sweetness is one of the only pleasant flavours. eat protein. eat as much protein as #you can. down those meal replacament shakes. get enough for a day. try not to into calorie deficits on vyvanse.#3) your mind will be searching for cognitively complex tasks and everything else dwarfs in comparison. dont lay down. do something.#4) you have to exercise. fully exercise at the gym not a home 20 min work out. you need to push your body right now so that you can be ok #5) nothing will be as intense and vivid and beautiful and there will be a layer of seperation between you snd reality even on a lower dosage #this is fine. this is the primary price. sunlight helps and so does doing complex tasks but you cant avoid this. remind yourself that this #is a self-induced thing and its temporary and itll fade.#6) youve been ship of theseus'd into a new person and this effect only increases later into the day. any conclusion you reach about yourself #is most likely not applicable to your non-vyvanse self.#7) carry chapstick around. keep drinking water. dry mouth starts 5 minutes after taking it #8) some of your friends have a reduced range of emotion and this makes them more stable but less capable of experiencing intense joys #and sadnesses. look at them. listen to their perspective. live like them when youre on the medication.#9) music is still gorgeous #10) you will feel very hot very fast. wear layers you can take off.#11) pick up a bow and shoot. keep shooting. keep going. shoot at least 50 arrows if you can. feel the pain in your arms and your shoulders #and then keep shooting.

not me picking up another shift at work tomorrow in hopes that it'll trigger my alter to start fronting so he can finally come home and play mouthwashing

#like. he usually gets triggered into fronting by me getting overwhelmed at any fast-paced job im at #and yesterday he expressed he wanted to have the body for the day so he could go home and play mouthwashing #AND I. I ACCIDENTALLY TOOK THE BODY FROM HIM #and i played some mouthwashing today like. oh he would fucking love this #like. dude literally named himself after kim kitsuragi #half-jokingly but also bc he feels very “get your shit together detective” about me #and i keep thinking abt how mouthwashing has a similar feel to disco elysium. to me #introspective and good writing and bad hellish situation looming over the horizon and mixing of the insane and sane #mouthwashing #disco elysium #did posting #mango man rambles

Post-Azkaban Wolfstar and 'Where'd all the time go',

Cause you know they get so forgetful, when they look in eachother's eyes.

#remus lupin #the marauders #marauders era #wolfstar #remus x sirius #sirius orion black #anything for our moony #wolfstar angst #remus john lupin #moony x padfoot #remus lupin x sirius black #remus loves sirius #sirius loves remus #where'd all the time go #It's starting to flyyyyyyyyyy #You know I get so forgetful when I look in your eyes #And I'm stuck in the shadows Blocking the shade #And there ain't no way to sweep up the mess that we've made #Flowers for the sick and dead #She's on the go Way too fast and way too slow #She'll turn to stone at hospitals and funeral homes #And when the fog rises Somebody sighs who is not in disguise anymore #And there's nothing to keep you from falling in love (except for all the years and trust they lost when Sirius got framed)#Dr. Dog #this song was made for them #Wolfstar #The moon and the brightest star in the sky reunite <3

"What was it like living with Barky?" versus a man sighing with his full body ready to go to war and protect the privacy of his very private teammate yet again and reveal nothing that hasnt already been talked about previously

"like people ask me even teammates they're like how is barky like? what does he do in his freetime? even guys that been playing with him for years, they're— (exasperated)" "ekblad said he's never been to his house." "(laughs) yeah, I think he really wants to go to his house."

conclusion hes just a normal guy absolutely to popular belief

BMW Teammate of the Month | 11.30.24 (x)

#anton lundell #aleksander barkov #ekky mention lmao because if we're talking about nosy teammates who want to know what sasha is like at home #its mr i havent been invited to sashas house in nth years #florida panthers #2425 #lundy going “even if im the younger guy-”#little brotherisms despite being an older brother #very “sasha is hard on me in practise but ill keep challenging him”#remember when sasha mentioned he realised lundy was stronger facing him in training camp?#oh hes growing up so fast #i love jameson trying to bait lundy into giving away anything and lundy is like (swerves into a different topic)#the way lundy does protect sashas privacy is very commendable #especially with the way hes the one whos always asked how sasha “is really like”#the kitties respect his boundaries so much #he really is just a normal dude (shrugs)#sorry the ekky mention kills me everytime #jameson way too quick with that ekky your whines are effecting this team even our EMPLOYEES #soon we'll get a “i havent been invited in 11 YEARS” and i will relish it

I had the sort of dream that will take me weeks to fade away from

#We rode bikes so fast through my old neighborhood #Yours went so kindly up the winding hill #my bike broke and we went home to fix it #The sun shined so brightly and the sky was perfectly blue #We were trying to get to the river

my cds (and cassette tape) finally arrived in the mail today!!

#I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS #was getting 10 cds and a cassette tape at once maybe a bit overkill? possibly #but i saw the bogo free sale banner and my brain lept at the chance to get more cds for half the price lol #i feel like my collection might be growing a bit too fast esp considering i only started collecting them this fall #but also I HAVE A WHOLE PILE OF CDS NOW LOOK AT IT THERE'S SO MANY AND THEY'RE MY FAVORITE ALBUMS TOO #it's like seeing blorbo from your music in real life in your home #just looking at a cd and being like !!! i literally listen to you every day i didn't know you were also Real #the difference between having something only on your phone even if you still see/listen to it a lot and having a Physical Thing is massive #just. i haven't even opened these up yet they look so pretty im just staring at them in awe while typing this rn #ykw 10 cds is a lot to unbox all at once and if they have extra stuff on the inside too i don't think I'd be able to fully appreciate it #i think im gonna save some of the unwrapping for later as a lil treat maybe for when im having a bad day #so i can come home and unwrap it and look inside and get that serotonin boost #just a lil something i can look forward to in the future :3 #they said money can't buy happiness but it turns out i just did and my happiness comes in the form of physical media lol #and ykw i think this is a pretty sweet deal like if i had to choose any hobby to spend money on this would be a great choice #it's cheap you get to support your favorite musicians and you get infinite dopamine out of it (well as long as the cd lasts ig)#just. im still looking at them i cant believe the pictures and sounds from my phone are Real and i can touch them now #...it's probably gonna take a while for me to get over the awe and actually open them up and start looking inside for goodies and stuff #ive been meaning to take pictures of the cool stuff from the precious cds that i got but i still haven't gotten around to it lol #just. the emotions are too big. even just looking at it brings me so much joy that if i opened it up to find more stuff inside #it'd be too much for my brain to handle and it would just explode or something lol #anyway i think that wall of text is long enough so im gonna go admire my cds some more now #mine #cd #cds #cassette tape #music #reminder #for later #<- and that is so i actually remember to open them up and look inside instead of just admiring it like a painting

Care to share with us what your no-longer-shortish wip is about???? 👀

FOR YOU? ALWAYS!

So I mentioned in this post that I had a short-ish WIP in my 'active development' pile that's angsty, Jamie-centric, and involves a cat. It's set in the nebulous time between Jamie rejoining the team at the end of 2x02 'Lavender' and the Dubai Air protest in 2x03 'Do the Right-est Thing', so Jamie's very much on the outside looking in.

Originally, it was only focused on Jamie having crushing feelings of social isolation, itchy feelings of touch starvation, and a cat. Now it's merged with another WIP from the 'extended mountainous pile' and given Jamie crushing feelings of social isolation, itchy feelings of touch starvation, a poor sense of self worth, terrible self-preservation instincts. And appendicitis. And a cat. (And Dani!)

(Even more characters just keep showing up too. I didn't invite them. They're just. Here.)

So now I'm smashing two different outlines together with all the single-minded enthusiasm of child convinced they've got the right jigsaw pieces. (They do not.) And while this isn't going to be long, it is no longer the short-ish length that I LITERALLY BEGGED IT TO STAY AT.

I LOVE the angst potential of the early-season-2-time-period and I would be remiss to not shout out our beloved @jamietarttsnorthernattitude who already covered it beautifully in 'i'm lost, but i'm hopeful, baby' and is DOING IT AGAIN RIGHT NOW!! (I'm very very excited 🥳)

#THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR THE ASK MY TERRIFYINGLY TALENTED FRIEND #seeing either of your URLs pop up in my notes always brings me endless delight 💚💚💚#i have NO CLUE when this will see the light of day #it is very much in third place on that 'active development' list #and as we've established #i am not a fast writer lol #i get home from work most days with my brain feeling like it's spent the last six hours being used as a piñata #at the child-hood birthday party of a future major leagues baseball star #BUT I PERSIST #ask box is always open #writing tag #readwing #jamiesfootball

i think growing up is just life repeatedly sucker punching you and saying bitch you thought things were gonna better lmao no you're so naive and stupid for having hope in 20 years the world will be flaming bag of garbage and no matter how hard you work you'll get eliminated at some point
