little things that jumped out at me on TLD rewatch:
in Vegas, Eddie doesn't even notice the crowd of showgirls he passes through, let alone turn around to look at him
Venom and Eddie blink together in the dogfighting scene where half of each of their faces are visible
for all their bickering and Eddie's odd "You stole my life!", they're in sync before they start getting hunted by the xenophage and Eddie kills a woman, fighting together, acting with mutual purpose, joking a bit, the face lick -- really, he's going through one thing after the next the whole movie, he is not his best self, and we already know he doesn't handle stress well
Eddie is largely at peace with Venom's shenanigans. It can read as resigned, but he's not mad when Venom destroys the bar and knocks the guys out or even when he breaks his foot; he's the voice of reason but he's accepted that this what Venom is like and is ultimately fine with it.
Most importantly:
Eddie reached out to Venom as Venom was dying. Eddie could have run away. Instead he chose to die with Venom even though he didn't have to.
So: who cares about the "You stole my life," who cares about the montage and "friend" and "I won't forget you, buddy 🙂" -- Eddie wanted to die with Venom
#when I watched the movie the first time I didn't doubt they were happy together until the stupid montage and smile#that colored my view of the movie the more I thought about it#but given how weird the end is I am choosing to ignore it and end the movie with But I Need Him#very curious to see the deleted scenes#I'd pay to see them now#also I say “Eddie could have run away” as if he didn't just stand around during the xenophage attack in the lab lol#symbrock#venom 3#venom the last dance spoilers#lair posts

I cannot imagine being a Damian stan right now. You've got both Zdarsky's bullshit (where he clearly doesn't give a shit about your boy) and The Boy Wonder (where Juni Ba clearly gives so many shits about your boy) coming out on the same day. The whiplash must be insane. I hope y'all get some nice warm soup for your efforts jfc
#damian wayne#damian al ghul#damian al ghul wayne#batman#batfamily#for all of the issues that come with having Steph as your fave having too much wild shit happening at once is never one of them#btw I quite like The Boy Wonder Issue 1. wow shocker an artist and writer who I have liked everything they've ever done#has once again written something that I am enjoying with art that makes me want to be part of its world.#it's almost like Juni Ba is really freaking talented or something#like I have some problems with it but it seems like many of those are part of the point. Damian is learning that his siblings are more#three-dimensional than he realized and that is part of this 'coming of age' story merged with fairytale#so I can't be mad at the oversimplistic defining of Dick and Jason and Tim until the conclusion of the series. that might be the point.#I hope that the series will address Steph as a Robin but if not then frankly it's not an issue unique to this series.#I'll be annoyed and disappointed but ultimately roll with it like I am with Babsgirl being here. There's too much good stuff here to get#hung up on shit that seems to be almost an editorial mandate at this point. at least that's where I'm at.#I am also very sorry that Chip Zdarsky is massacring your boy. he has 'X (Tim for him) is the best Robin so everyone else must suck' diseas#where a writer really likes one specific Robin and in trying to uplift them demeans all of the other Robins. instead of like...just writing#for that one character only or alternatively not demeaning the other characters in order to make his blorbo look good#it's wild because I actually think his writing for Tim is pretty solid. but he's not writing a Tim series. he's writing a Batman series.#and if you are going to write a Batman series and include other Batfamily members you need to actually write them well.#instead of assigning them like 2 personality traits while Tim gets to be a whole character#I accept that behavior in fanfic where I have lesser standards because it's fucking free. not a comic run that wants me to pay#tens of dollars in order to understand what the fuck is going on. he's been going for a while now it's gotta be a lot of money.#I can buy Steelworks with that money. I can see John Henry and Natasha Irons in a trade. Fuck you Chip.#it's why it takes such a special person to write a good ensemble story/a good Batfamily story. you have to be good at writing a LOT#of different characters. which I don't think most people are. I sure as hell am not. I can write maybe 3 at a time confidently well.#and you also have to give all of them at least SOME love or else people will be upset that you aren't focusing on their fave#and also the writing as a whole will suffer. Chip Zdarsky is a pretty good Tim writer. I'd maybe read a Tim solo written by him.#I would not read a story focusing on multiple characters that I like written by Chip Zdarsky. because every character who isn't Tim#is at least a bit weak/inconsistent/out of character INCLUDING FUCKING BATMAN. THE NO. 1 GUY MOST ARE HERE FOR

I need a therapist who I can argue with and who will give me jewish advice ....a rabbi. I need a rabbi
#afakelj#seriously though#i thought my last therapist was good!#and then i tried to change some stuff and do some arguing#and the reaction was... mrrrgh#also idk. i feel like.... i don't want to have to update the therapist about what is happening in my life#which is stupid! of course i should they've got many patients#but i feel like what i just sit there talking about my week? i do that to my friends already#i'd like a situation where they knew me enough to already have a general idea of what was going on#so i could meet with them less frequently. say once a month#and then we could work on a specific problem i'm having and i could get advice on that and see how that's working out#i really think of therapy as brain and emotions doctor and where i'm at now i want...more jewish methods of dealing with life?#does this make any sense#.....a bubbe would also work in a different but similar way. i need one of them too T.T#but you see i pay the rabbi by dues to the synagogue. so i just have to find a synagogue i like (lmao just)#i have to marry someone and start raising grandchildren to pay the bubbe

mum found out I quit my job and now she's panicking from her hospital bed.
#even tho ive been unemployed since August she thinks i just quit. i think of i tell her its been a while and ive been#looking after her basically as soon as i quit she'll maybe calm down#i only ended up telling her because my money is running dry because i spent it all looking after her and checking up on her#when i wasnt supposed to. and she needs to know that im running out of money 😭#but now i feel like the situation is worse. she keeps telling me to call my old job and ask them to take me back#but id rather find another job than go back there it got so bad i genuinely thought I'd die at that place#im not built for customer service + its not worth travelling 4 hrs a day for minimum wage#shes worried about my bills but ive actually been able to pay my bills since i quit 😭 because i saved#so much money up. when i was working i could've save because i had to spend half of it on transport costs and i could barely pay my bills#my mum thinks suffering is important like its supposed to happen so im not surprised she thinks this but now i feel like#i cant even see her because she'll spend the entire visit telling me to go back to my old job#even tho i told her I've been looking for work (which i have). i was when i was still working and i still am now. im just not having the#best luck rn

*The key to both of these features is that the necessary amount of points for success is in no way paywalled and you can get the best of every outcome provided you make good choices
#playchoices#to be clear the points/diamonds system is from TC&tF where you can get exclusive choices without having to pay for them#not to be confused with the TH:M points system#personally I'd like to see almost all of these again except for the character scores because sometimes those felt arbitrary/unfair as hell#also the romance choices one is complicated because on one hand you don't get these weird fast-tracked relationships you always get now#but on the other it has the definite downside that the routes often end up paywalled because if you don't spend diamonds they move p slowly#not sure which one I want most between the outfit options (sometimes the only one sucks) and the diamond books now that they're VIP instead#unconquered queries

I want to buy a sticker from your shop, but shipping (to Canada) is down as $22 before tax. May I ask why it costs so much to ship a single sticker? Is it Etsy being weird, or does it really cost that much to send an envelope over the border?
I'm not trying to be snarky or passive aggressive or anything, I'm genuinely just kind of befuddled atm.
A fair question honestly! USPS sets the rates for international shipping, and shipping to canada really is about that expensive 😭 I considered sending stickers via envelopes, but 1. if I send them with a stamp (less than $2) they don't have tracking, and etsy Does Not Like That. I gotta send packages with shipping to qualify for star seller, plus it covers your ass in case USPS loses it. and 2. apparently it's illegal to send merchandise internationally in envelopes!! so sadly we're all stuck dealing with the super crazy international rates. I don't like it either because as someone who deals in trinkets, people generally do not want to pay $16 for a charm that costs $12, and they especially don't want to pay that for a sticker that costs $4... I would ABSOLUTELY have way more international sales if USPS wasn't fucking us with the prices but it's out of my control dssdjkfjksdf
I give this advice a lot, but if you don't want to pay international shipping (or just live in a country I don't ship to myself), you can borrow the address of a friend that lives in the states and they can forward it to you! I don't actually know if this is cheaper, but some people have said it is. it's def cheaper for stickers though if your friend uses a stamp!
TL;DR yeah etsy and USPS are Both Weird, sorry ; - ; i assure you i hate it even More than you do lmao
#etsy#not art#ask#anonymous#anon#i think i actually did have like three canadian sticker orders last week all in the same day#one of them ordered multiple stickers but two were just. One. and i'm like. you guys are either rich or crazy but either way i respect it#even US shipping is getting more and more expensive. five years ago i'd pay 2.80 to ship a 1 oz first class package#now its almost $4. even just over $4 if i ship to like California or something!#i'm gonna put a general PSA here to please not be too upset with small businesses' shipping rates even in the US#not to imply anon is or that anybody has said anything! but i do see like tiktoks and social media comments#on Other People's Pages saying like OMG $5 SHIPPING??? INSANE I'M NOT PAYING THAT#amazon has spoiled you guys sorry. shipping isn't free. not only do i have to pay for the shipping label#i have to pay for my bubble mailers. my envelopes. the thermal labels i print on. i recycle my bubble wrap at least but i have to pay#for materials as well. so this seems like a good place to mention it#frankly i shouldn't even have the stupid 'free shipping over $35' thing because again shipping is like $4 give or take 30c by location#but etsy makes me and it Does bring in sales so i'll pretend it balances out

listen...listen... idk man i didn't expect downfall to hit me as hard as it did. but i'm at the end of ep101 and i have cried more maybe than during any other part of this story...and what a story within a story downfall is
it's about faith, the faith the mortals have in the gods and that the gods have in mortals, the faith in their creations, in and for their love of each other. and there is something so moving and intoxicating and emotional about that depiction, of gods deciding to become mortals to achieve an end goal, but of learning how much mortals love and feel and suffer
just the love between them all, everyone depicted. the wildmother and the lawbearer... the emissary.... trist and ayden, the everlight and the dawnfather... fucking just....everyone
idk man this sort of tragic story really just gets me so so so fucking bad, it hits me in such a unique way
#i am. so emo#cassida reaching out for the help of a god in a city that would kill her for prayer because her son is dying#betrayer gods and prime deities working together#asmodeus--ASMODEUS becoming who he is because he took the brunt of the force of their ship coming to exandria#the emissary being sent out ahead of the lawbearer because she could not bear to be unable to break her own rules if she had to save her wi#the way noshir's voice changed before the matron of ravens and he genuinely was a child#the way the lawbearer held the hand of her wife and asked the wildmother to tell her everything about her brave child#the way trist tried to hold onto her husband and children for as long as she fucking could. this mortal life she'd made#just...the matron of ravens being the matron of ravens. being kind.#the fact that the dawnfather was a fifteen year old boy#i am actively crying right now post episode#it's not a bells hells episode and i have missed them SO much but holy shit i think this six hour long insane episode has been my favorite#my favorite of the entire campaign#might even end up being of all of cr point blank eventually we'll see#not to mention the INSANE combat and roles#abubakar???? INSANE. what a fucking guy#silaha was a blast and the meteor swarm was unbelievable#the fact that nick knew the mechanics INSIDE AND OUT???#i'd literally watch it again just to pay attention to how he maneuvers the layers of abilities and stats#anyway im so weak right now#going to go through everything for those eps in the tags now#critical role#personal

I will be forever grateful i can be on this new med. it's one a lot of folks also need and can struggle to have access to! It's important i be on it, especially if i start doing any vid collabs
(some of which, really, all of which, i unfortunately actually need to cancel that were in the preplanning stages, bc the election results have me wanting to wait and see how the general atmosphere of the country is before i agree to meet up with anyone. I feel bad for cancelling, but also i just can't know for sure how safe things are/might be going forward and I'd rather avoid the potential of. ya know. various not great things that could happen at a meet up, tho i would certainly hope they wouldn't. i don't feel like actually addressing them rn, u guys know what i mean)
That said, if the truvada initial side effects could fuck off asap would be so lovely. three weeks at worst, then they should be gone/much better or so i am told. really hope that's true bc losing my mornings to being dizzy and nauseous is Not Working for me lmao. im on week two, and now understand why my new doc said to call if i needed any 'cheerleading' and support to get thru the side effects, bc apparently she's done that for several ppl to make sure they actually make it thru the three weeks and keep on it (lovely of her!!)
#text post#not going to get into the other painful smack of this morning#suffice to say that medicaid does not in fact fully cover vocal therapy/training for trans ppl#even if ur docs feel incredibly certain it is#if i was making a decent bit over minimum wage at consistent hours and already had my current debts paid off mostly#then I'd happily consider paying the chunk Medicaid won't cover but as of now#it would literally be basically two paychecks if not three to cover the estimate for this first visit#and that's only if the poll would have us polling every week like we did before the election#otherwise we're guesstimating it would be upwards of 4 paychecks to cover it#I'm actually gonna get into in here bc nobody reads all my tag essays (fair valid and correct)#im really sad abt this. my voice gets me clocked a lot and while i can mostly handle like. visually being clocked#my voice giving me away genuinely makes me feel a pain in my chest. i can't get my customer service voice to go lower yet#and even if it's my usual voice I've made minimal progress on my own self done vocal study stuff#so like. no one knows how high it was compared to how it is now tho so no one actually hears it as anything near deep#which it isn't but like. there's been a slightly barely there drop of it per at least a couple ppl in my life#i was probably going to be able to learn how to sing again and find my new range. I'd fix my customer service voice#even if it would only ever be a teeny bit lower than how it is now. it would be lovely#im not gonna get too down tho bc someday hopefully I'll be able to make it happen/afford it#and for now...im doing the bad thing of not cancelling the appt yet#i will bc they're booking out for months and it isn't right of me to take a spot i know i can't keep#but. let me pretend i can for another day or two. maybe until monday. then I'll call or msg them on mychart#and let them know i just don't have the funds rn tho i do deeply appreciate that Medicaid at least pays part of it#im just not at a point where i can cover the rest but that I'll reschedule/have a new referral sent whenever that changes#...and hopefully things in this country will be of such a state that such care is still available to ppl like me.#but that's all we're saying on that bc im already having a pathetic little cry over this#(im fine the med side effects have me crying over everything lol i see a sad commercial and Instant Tears like someone died lmaooo)

ohhhh i want a cat so baddddd I've never gone this long without a cat in my living space. what happened to mrrow?? mrrrroow?
#it's just not financially feasible bc I'd have to pay a 300 dollar per deposit for it and I'd have to pay the adoption fee#and yeah there's plenty of strays around here but I can't afford the vet checks to take one in#the local pet stores sell cats that have already had all that that come in from a nearby rescue#and the adoption fee for them would be way cheaper than the vet costs#plus sometimes they will help you reprogram a microchip if the cat has one and the original owner surrendered it#maybe soon i gotta see where i stand on bills first but i have to remember I'd also have to buy all the stuff to take care of a cat#which is also expensive#i think im going to start gradually collecting cat supplies for now and then when spring fafsa money comes in I'll be able to go get one#but goddd i wish i was financially stable i want a kittyyyyy#im already having to keep an eye on my dog though cause she's getting older and i honestly can't afford regular vet visits for her#so I can't get another animal yet anyway#i need to get pet insurance for my dog tbh

I'm just kinda thinking over what could it been had things gone just. Just every so slightly better
Had some fundamentals been challenged further
Had the right words be spoken
Had they didn't go all in
It's just so sad, because I ultimately do see them working on the right scenarios, but they're all just...fantasy, a fleeting dream, the unreachable
Oughhhh I love them so much. They're so doomed
#perceptive little crow#this is about teopeka btw#i just listened to something good can work and it was like 'man. this would've been the ideal'#because YES i do believe the first phase of their relationship was full of hope for the future for both ends#peka just found himself on a new world that seemed detached from the previous. he could start anew#tbh tho teo simply followed out of pity and a bit of hopelessness. I wouldn't be surprised if her life was just kinda shaking a couple days-#before she met peka. and after seeing what he was capable of she kinda just....relaxed. knowing it may go well after all#it was a gamble she took. but damn did it pay off. and she gets to enjoy the benefits for a fair amount too#then The Incident happened#then a new department that was the opposite of what she advocate for formed on the company she wanted to create#then she started being pushed more and more on administrative/executive roles and was basically out of the field#then she felt disconnected of her world. her passion. her people#no place to go to no shoulder to land on. she wasn't alone she just....was a deeply lonely woman at the end#sorry. im not even sure if this actually fits the direction I'd like her to go to on my au/fanfic. but ig it fits#anyways. maybe had stuff gone differently she would've enjoyed the benefits all the way through#she maybe could've had both sides of the cake#who knows#it's just kinda interesting to think about the gambles she took went it came to hlev/peka. both on moments of desperation/loneliness#both the same weird ass guy that she saw at first and went 'what the fuck is his deal'#both just...so endearing she can't help but love them#maybe she needs them as much as they need her#maybe any and all their relationships never were meant to last#but that's kinda dooming it further and honestly I'd like to see a happy ending (where i get to be with my crush x3!!!!!!)#so I'll leave one side to rot and the other to bloom. easy.#sorry im rambling too much now. night night

people really come to my city and pay forty quid for a guided tour just so a bespectacled middle aged man in a poundland halloween costume can tell them about how people used to chuck pots of shite out the window and then instantly die of the plague
#or whatever used to happen round here#it's like use google bro#i don't get why you wouldn't just walk around on your own and have a nice time doing your own thing#than waste your money on tourist trap shite that's usually a scam#ESPECIALLY ghost tours. like are you seriously PAYING someone REAL MONEY to fucking lie to you#GHOSTS AREN'T REAL BROTHER. you can just say fucking anything like oh there's a ghost in here. source: trust me bro. now give me your cash#see a few years back i used to meet up with new students from grindr and give them tours#but it was like. i'd take them to the bits no one knows about and be like this is the place where my friend accidentally pissed on my shoes#here's the bit where a guy with a massive stick and no shoes on tried to lure me into an underground cinema#etc etc etc. way more interesting. if you ask me

BOO hiii do u like any pjsk ships!!!!! I need to know ur pjsk opinions ,,,
HAIIIII okay so I'm gunna be totally honest here I haven't really been paying attention to many characters besides N25 so like, kind of the only ship I for sure like is those 4 in a poly LMAO
I WILL SAY THO. I've been seeing how some of these characters interact with ppl outside the group more lately and Emu and Mafuyu are especially adorable 2 me. I think they have some sorta undefined qp energy. Maybe Kanade and,,, Hinome?? The,, the side ponytail girl Kanade made candles with during that one event. They also have some sorta sweet dynamic I think.
But mainly the N25 poly is my fave <3
#asks#bigender-shiho#genuinely i got tunnel vision SUPER HARD on N25 during the first few weeks I was playing and i WOULD NOT pay attention 2 how they interact-#-with Anyone Else bc i was like BOOOOO YOURE NOT FROM MY GIRL GROUP 👎👎👎 HSJAGSJSHSJD#(which is why i don't know a lot of names. i wouldn't even bother processing them HDJSHDJ)#BUT IM SEEING THEM NOW. IM SEEING HOW PPL TALK AND INTERACT AND ITS FASCINATING#im learning who knows who babey!!!!!#OH WAIT ALSO. UH UH WHATSHISFACE PURPLE HAIR.#RUI!!#Rui and Mizuki knowing each other delighted me and while I don't know if I'd say I /ship/ them#I think theyre my second fave platonic pairing <3#< next to Emu and Mafuyu HSJANSJ

when i think abt how hard it is to watch figure skating ....
#like besties i dont want to pay for a bunch of individual livestreams for challenger series competitions#or else just have to look up which individual skaters skated and then youtube them individually to see if anyone has uploaded their program#i simply think the isu youtube channel should broadcast all competitions that occur under the isu...........#dont even get me started on fucking peacock theyre not real to me#but like!! idk i'd be following the CS comps more if it wasnt such a hassle to watch them!!!#JGP is my best friend though i love u junior grand prix youtube channel <33#fs#soyouwanttowatchfigureskating dot com is my good ally and compatriot but theyre a bandaid 2 a larger problem...#like we shouldnt need a website that collates all the random ass competition links just to watch a sport...#and they wonder why no one in the usa cares about fs right now!!!#and they wonder why skate america is having to cold call people to fill seats!!!!

I hate filing tax returns
#bobbi's being weird again#wouldn't be so bad if I'd been smart for the last three years and just hyucking DONE THEM but alas#the last time I filed my tax return was in 2020#for my 2019 return#so my roommate is taking us to a tax prep place tomorrow to see if we can get it done either then or schedule an appointment for Saturday#I don't want to know how much it's gonna cost >.<#I'm sure I could do it for free but idk how#and navigating the IRS website is a recipe for hives#here's hoping I don't have to pay the IRS too#pretty sure I won't otherwise they'd have come for my ass by now#please life just give me this one monetary boon I promise I won't lapse on my taxes again ;-;

i'm going to see an apartment i really really like on wednesday (it is SO BIG! right in the neighborhood i like best! outside building is beautiful, on a tree-lined street, hardwood floors, so many windows!!) but i like. am trying to keep myself from getting too attached ahead of time bc it's just like a littleeee too expensive and i really should be realistic and get something about 100-200 dollars cheaper. but i love it soooo much, i want it so bad lmao.
#liveblogging life#it's a two-bedroom but it just squeaked within my budget#but plus utilities parking and pet rent (?) it'll be about 100 dollars over what i want to pay#and even then it's still on the upper range#like i can afford it - i double checked - but it means i'll have to be more careful with spending cash#and i'll only be able to put so much away in savings#idk man i'm kind of waiting until after i see it bc maybe i'll actually hate it in person#but it's going to be a serious debate on if i want to spend that much more on rent for a bigger beautiful apt#or if i'd rather save my cash on a smaller less beautiful apt so that i can buy other stuff and save for a house faster#bc like. i'm probably not going to move again for a while so wherever i go i want to make sure i really like it#and like this apt i have now i do really like but i did have to choose it bc i didnt really have any other options#whereas now i am pretty much an ideal renter so i think i have my pick of the litter so it means i can really afford to be choosy#idk idk this is stressful lmao#i have like eight showings scheduled for next week im hoping one of them seems like the one so i can go ahead and apply#also like if im going to end up spending so much on an apt shouldnt it be for an apt with a ton of amenities? like a washer/dryer#or balcony or community rooms or s/t. arghhhhhhh.
