#I wasn't at the party but my friend was

Be mindful of when, where, and how you groom in public. Avoid grooming habits in public that are going to leave a mess, and if they will leave a mess at least clean up after yourself. But overall, try to keep what grooming you can at home or in some sort of private space.

If you were to take out a pair of toenail clippers and start clipping your toenails at someone's housewarming party, you'd get some pretty strange looks, and probably asked to stop if not asked to leave. First of all, toenail clipping is something likely to leave a mess, a stray toenail clip just might fly off into another party-goer's drink. Or, it might just make other party-goers feel uncomfortable and squeamish.

Grooming is often considered something personal, which is why a lot of people might feel awkward seeing others groom themselves in public.

Keeping a brush or comb with you and occasionally running it through your hair might be fine depending on where you are, but be mindful of where you do it, especially if you're someone who tends to shed a lot, and clean up after yourself if you left behind any hairs on surfaces such as chairs or desks.

The general rule of thumb is that if it's something the majority of people in your culture keep to doing in the privacy of their bathroom at home, a lot of people are going to find it awkward if they see you doing it in a public space. Not only does it feel awkward to see someone doing something usually kept to the privacy of their bathroom at home, but things such as clipping toenails, plucking your mustache hairs, ect. are also things that can leave a mess, and most people are going to feel grossed out by finding someone else's toenail clippings or mustache hairs in public.

@ the mag7 fam, I realize I have no way of convincing you this is not a 'and then everyone clapped' fake post, but i LITERALLY MET MANUEL GARCIA RULFO this weekend at a TIFF party, and we LITERALLY SPOKE FOR LIKE 5 MINUTES

Takeaways:

he is really ridiculously handsome, excellent brown eyes, A+

really not as tall as he seems in character, and much slighter, i may have to revisit how 'looming' i've written him in fic lmao

(on that note it is biZARRE meeting someone whose character you've written fic about, that is the first time that has happened to me. i can only be grateful i haven't written too much with him, i'd have withered if it was ethan hawke or LBH lol)

he was extremely friendly! and as it transpired he lived in my hometown for about a year so we just chatted about that. he loves poutine and hates the winter, and he has my full agreement on both counts 👍

he also appears to be dating vincent d'onofrio's daughter which is sO cute, the mag7 fam lives on 🙌 (she is gorgeous btw. and I don't think this is like a 'scoop' or private info or anything lol, I asked if he had anything going on at tiff that day and he was very openly like 'no only next week, today I'm just supporting her!)

(also the context for All This is my gentleman friend is a journalist and i joined him at TIFF for the weekend and basically larped as a famous person all weekend lol good times. weekend was crazy but this part felt the most relevant to tumblr)

an add-on to this post. if you've been annoyed by my latest reblogs, sor ry!! I've been hooked on the muppets lately. i got emotionally attached after spending several hours alone in Disney's California('s?) Adventure with a two foot tall kermit plush. picture it. random guy going through ride lines cuddling Kermit The Frog. single rider? nah I'm here with my buddy kermit. 45 bucks and you too could have one. carried around all day as my emotional support muppet. sat at an empty table in san fransokyo and drank hot chocolate with kermit. that changes you.

Anyway Walter's a goofball and i love him too but he has zero merch in the california disney parks (like all the other muppets, to be honest).

Here I go, again... The ride just never ends.

Shiro's reaction to Allura sacrificing herself for him in Season One, when he was still a character who mattered:

Shiro's reaction to the exact same thing in Season Eight, when the writers had long since stopped caring about him:

Shiro's response to Ulaz, who he barely knew, sacrificing himself to save him, back in Season Two:

Shiro saying goodbye to one of his dearest friends, who saved his life and gifted him with his new arm, and the power source for it, in the final episode of the absolute disaster that is Season Eight:

All he wants is friendship :)

As someone who hasn't considered the ship of ichigo and byakuya in more than a "oh that'd be an interesting ship", getting to the whole fullbringer arc really made me interested.

Like Tsukishima is able to place himself in memories and shit, which he does with the important people Ichigo has in his life. And all these people, Ichigo's family, his close friends, and the girl who loves him, instantly turn on him when Ichigo attacks Tsukishima.

The people who care the most about Ichigo and trust him with their lives are unable to break out of the ability or even question it. Orihime and Chad do try and fight it near the end but even they don't manage it before being removed from the situation entirely.

Tsukishima does this too with Byakuya and yet, out of all Ichigo's friends and family, it's Byakuya who actually goes against the enemies ability and cuts him down because anyone who dares to hurt Ichigo, even if they're a friend, must be cut down. And he does this almost instantaneously, without mulling it over unlike Chad and Orihime who only started to question things later.

That's just. . . Very interesting that out of everyone, it was Byakuya who would do such a thing, especially since, up to this point, we've not seen a lot between him and Ichigo.

Anyway I can see why my friend was a bit obsessed with these two when she was reading the manga. I can certainly see the potential even more now than I did and I certainly did earlier.

[ I'm casually awake at 4:20am again, thinking about Gale not knowing how to smoke a pipe with a carb and he is too intimidated by bongs cause he is afraid he is going to slurp up bong water so he just gives you puppy eyes to shotgun him anytime you take a hit but he insists it's just cause it's hot and not because he has no idea what the fuck he is doing and is too afraid to ask for help ]

ppl always say that autistics don't get jokes but honestly when has a neurotypical person ever clocked the fact that I've told a clearly telegraphed joke like. I'm the one who takes everything too seriously?

[trinitea-fics]

My main issue is that I'm competitive and I've become TOO good at gift giving. I was at a friend's birthday party once and she was obviously the most excited about my gift (something that also cost the least money out of the other gifts there). I'm literally riding that high still. But now I have to try and top myself year after year.

I'm a little insane about the fact that YOU are the final boss in isat. It's so cool and scary and I almost cried several times. I love this game's combat both in a fun mechanics way in a narrative way I'm gonna thruppppp
