An old woman (80s) I'm working for told me she likes to watch true crime shows. I asked "don't you find it gruesome and shocking?" and she replied that at first she was worried she would have nightmares but she was perfectly fine actually. Then she added that after everything she's been through in life that kind of stuff doesn't phase her. She went on to tell me about that time her ex husband tried to murder her via strangulation and she detailed the scene to me like it was nothing. He smashed her head on the wall, grabbed her by the hair, got her on the bed and strangled her half to death. She stayed with him though. She still has a framed picture of him in her living room. It got me wondering: how many women have experienced murder attempts? Maybe you have? Or your mother? Failed kidnappings, "almost" attacks, things that could have gone much worse if no one intervened or you didn't reach home, that type of stuff. I know a few women who have and I certainly have myself. Men like to say that they kill each others much more than they kill women but how many assaults and how many "almost" do we have to endure in one lifetime compared to them? And the nonchalance with which we end up talking about it and continuing our lives sometimes... surreal.

You know how some utmv characters have fanon names, like blueberry, red (not always but i see people use this name for fanon!uf) or axe. What would be the fanon names of other characters I wonder?

thinking. there surely has to have been Someone twitch ran into that helped them right out of the honey gardens
like,, people surely would have been searching for the escaped prisoner that fucked shit up on the way out. they must have been hidden for a while,,they would have been both So easy to catch/murder after chugging way too much red honey, and super confused and disoriented afterwards, with no idea who they are, nowhere to go & no contacts in london.
where did they get money. new clothes. where on earth did they get silverer shades. wtf happened in that stretch of time

OH- speaking of Venom, another thing I'd like to mention is I know they interact later, but I find Robo-Ky and Venom to be a really funny pair because of where I'm at in the story (Accent Core)
Because this is the extent of their interactions-

Ok, I could either start writing a "Bad Latin" sequel or the completely unrelated idea I just had that's pure vibes, no plot.

I am not a fanfiction reader typically but I have read some great fanfics in my life and I have deep respect for the fanfiction community and the fanfiction writers. However there is one minor but very annoying side-effect of fanfiction that is very obvious to me because I don't read fanfics, but might be less obvious to the majority of fans who do. What I've noticed in a lot of fandoms, especially if I'm new in a fandom, is that there is always a certain part of fanfiction that is mischaracterizing characters and themes, misinterpreting symbolism etc. It is inevitable. Sometimes these fanfics become very popular, and their misguided themes/characterizations/weird fanon gets confused with canon. This becomes a problem, (sometimes reinforced by BNF's equally questionable interpretations retellings of the source material). Both dynamics reinforce one another in an endless vicious circle but fanfic plays an important role. The part of the fanbase that still holds onto the source material and is fed up with the mischaracterization/misinterpretation as a result of reading these fanfics/metas for years and years, tries to overcorrect this by focusing on the parts of the source material that are erased in fanon/fanfics, while at the same time dismissing other parts of the source material that are being selectively appreciated by fanon/fanfics. This of course polarizes the discourse and in the end, a person like me, (someone who generally doesn't read fanfiction/may not be familiar with a big part of fanon) cannot find themselves in any side of the discourse. Like, just because you have read 9328923 fanfics that misinterpret a certain character as being, let's say, white (no relation to the skin color), you don't necessarily have to insist that they're black instead. Yes, they're not white and it's a mistake to present them as white, but they can be grey, or orange, or ochre for all I care. Doesn't mean they're black. If you present them as black to correct a mischaracterization, you're also mischaracterizing.
TL;DR being part of a fandom is extremely polarizing and sometimes I find it hard to find my place.

Uhm... Greetings, once again! I was practicing with drawing Maxwell and then remembered his form from the past. You know... William Carter. Have you ever tried to draw him that way? If so, i would love to see it! (Sorry if it sounds like a commission, I'm just asking, he-he.)
I've drawn William before. There's not much of a trick to drawing him, since he's just Maxwell with different hair and a different outfit. Here's the tag on my blog.
But sure, why not:
Tumblr media
I don't think anyone needs a William tutorial, but just to demonstrate the ways he's similar to Maxwell, I did both of them starting with the same base drawing:
Because he's the same guy! And, if you get what I mean by "Closed" vs "Open" body language - I mean that William is guarded and introverted, while Maxwell is much more unreserved and bold. The attitude differences matter even more than the differences in appearance.
Tumblr media
The "before and after" with William is why he's fun to draw or write for. You know what he will eventually become, and it's interesting coming up with the sequence of events that will change him into Maxwell. What parts remain the same, even as everything else about him changes?

sorry for coming back to this now as everyone wants to forget about the dsq's lmao, but i do find it interesting that the fia's main (and only) argument is time (or lack of it there of.)
i don't know if they purposefully misinterpreted what people were demanding as nobody actually requested they check every single car as meticulously, but rather that to the outsider it does appear slightly negligent if after having a 50% fail rate there is no mechanism that triggers further checks; i understand the argument of time (as much as we can say 'oh just hire more people', i don't think it's that simple), but given that the punishment for non-compliance (regardless of intentionality) is as high as a DSQ, i don't think it's irrational for the fia to do some further tests in such circumstances?
not to mention that failing a plank check is very rare (this is the first time a DSQ occured for it since michael schumacher in spa '94), so surely when we have such unprecedented circumstances, shouldn't the fia have mechanisms in place for it? it seems incredibly arbitrary right now

weighing my options here. Baz is freaking out over his pulled muscles and his nose is still stuffy so breathing properly is a challenge. a hot bath would probably help with the muscles but would probably also raise his heart rate and freak him out a little bit more. also apparently making noise at late hours triggers our paranoia holders to front and running a bath is noisy. there's a lot of factors at play here

Buck was mostly just talking himself into a tizzy over being excluded by Eddie (and by extension Tommy) but in fact he was excluded once, which was the karaoke trivia night, other than that Eddie invited him to the basketball game a million times before and he always said no, he wanted Buck at the fight but there were no more tickets... he knows Buck and his abandonment issues, he would never on purpose do that to him.
that being said Eddie's just finally finding ground to be aloof and have fun and it seems to be coming at the price of a bit of ignorance on his part — and not just towards Buck either
like what do you mean you asked your girlfriend to babysit your 13yo son twice in one week while you were hanging out with your new buddy?? that is a dating red flag if there ever was one.
he's having fun and enjoying himself for the first time in forever and it kinda made him lose sight of some things, which is fine cuz it worked out well in the end (aside from the ankle thing oof) but if this is gonna become a pattern (since Ryan specifically said that Eddie has much more levity in this season) it might come back to bite him in the ass

the shots of Hawkeye interspersed throughout the scene in GFA where we learn the baby died have a protective element to them. imagine you were instead forced to watch a shot of a mother realizing that she's smothered her child, the child going limp in her arms, and her sorrow as the fact of it sinks in. it's too dark. and we might run the risk of feeling like she's a real character rather than a footnote in someone else's story.
see for yourself here if you want (child death cw). even when i look at it i get this feeling of "why make this? what is this for?" - without Hawkeye as a buffer, this is just something that might have happened during the Korean War, rather than a scene from TV's MASH.
i wonder whether obscuring the truth by centering the white experience where ought not to be the focus, like this, or this, or this, is better than telling the truth, when the truth is so obscene that it's unwatchable.
