One of Steve’s favorite parts of raising his teenage girls is listening to their drama.

He’s said it since he was in high school himself – girl drama is way more interesting than boy drama. Is he playing into gender roles a bit there? Sure, but sometimes there’s a bit of truth to it.

The thing is, drama is a lot different in 2018 than it was when Steve was in high school. The social media piece of it is totally wild to him – the way that there is an underlying meaning to it all is kind of incredible though. Not really in a good way, obviously, because it’s all completely petty and small and dumb, but that’s exactly why Steve loves hearing about it through his kids.

Like, Moe will ask Robbie,

“Dude, what was up with Molly getting cropped out of that photo Ava posted?”

And then Robbie will launch into a whole goddamn narrative – with secondary characters and side stories and plot twists and everything – and Steve totally lives for it every time.

“Shit, I just accidentally liked Lauren’s VSCO,” Moe said.

“Damn,” Robbie commented without looking up from her phone.

“What’s wrong with Lauren?” Steve asked, because last he checked Moe and Lauren were friends.

“She, like, dropped out of school,” Robbie replied.

“Not dropped out,” Moe clarified, “She withdrew from school because she didn’t like anyone and now she’s doing it all online or something.”

And, see, that’s another thing that’s different between now and when Steve was in high school – he’s an adult, with an adult brain and a handful of psych degrees, so the line between what’s drama and what’s an actually concerning event is quite a bit more defined for him than it is for his daughters’.

“What do you mean she didn’t like anyone?” Steve asked.

“I dunno,” Moe shrugged, “She just, like, stopped hanging out, you know. Like, we’d say hi and she wouldn’t say hi back and she left the group chat and she was avoiding sitting with us at lunch and stuff like that.”

And that had Steve’s counselor-brain completely overpowering his drama-brain, and now he’s wondering if he knows Lauren’s mom well enough to weasel his way into the situation.

anybody else absolutely gutted that dapper and pomme almost died today for the sliver of hope to get their dad back, ventured into the deep dark for ritual materials and faced against a warden, then when finally they made the ritual it didn’t even work right

matt has been ON THEIR ASSES trying to get them to hurry up and kill ludinus da'leth and he just stopped everything to give them a moment in a fucking woodcarving museum solely to remind them (and/or the viewers) that there are, in fact, things to do after this moon chicanery

I love the idea of Gary and Ash traveling together and doing Professor Assistant stuff in their teen years

... Really though, how WOULD the Hornsent view Morgott or Mohg? WOULD they revere them, for the aspects they bear - the horns, the tail, the wings - or would their hatred toward Marika be that strong that, even for the omen twins, they would still hold contempt?

I just really need ppl to integrate the fact that Jews being explicitly racialized and violently targeted for elimination under white supremacy is in fact the reason this is all happening to begin with so perhaps rhetoric which conflates is with the group of people who have been ethnically cleansing and genociding us for centuries is like, not the hottest thing to do idk

so rarely are comedy movies targeted towards teenage girls. so rarely are the ones “for” teenage girls actually funny. so rarely do comedy movies for teenage girls incorporate lgbt characters as part of the main theme without directly mocking the gay community with bigoted “jokes”.

and yet here we have: Bottoms 2023.

I think it's really funny when europeans criticise the us-centrism in history education in the usa because. if you've seen our own history education you've seen it is usually incredibly eurocentric. the pot calling the kettle black and whatnot

sorry to Sad Post on main BUT

not having our beloved show feels particularly crushing today. i believe i saw others spinning similar sentiments within the last couple of days, ie how it’s the anniversary of the season 2 renewal, how we would have probably had filming bts by now had season 3 continued on the expected trajectory, and how it would have been another thing to celebrate this pride month.

and like. yeah. Yeah.

idk, maybe it’s just that life is Particularly Hard right now anyway, and so subsequently this month feels emptier than usual, but this month REALLY feels emptier than usual.

i guess it’s just like…this month last year, we still had something tangible to look forward to. we were all still being delightfully horsey about it and wondering if we were going to get a tidbit/sneak peak all throughout pride.

and now it’s just…it’s crazy to think that a year ago, i never would have even CONSIDERED the idea of not having a third season the same time the following year. it was so wildly unrealistic for me at the time, something i couldn’t even begin to ponder.

and i guess that sort of highlights just how unfair the cancellation was, and still is. that it felt like we’d for sure get to see their ending, and now here we are the following pride month in the gravy basket. it’s so unfair.

to just think of the possibilities, to think about how we could have been sitting here with a renewal announcement, or even with little blurry tidbits of set pictures like we did for season 2. like, season 3’s version of the pixelated lighthouse and the party and the prince instagram captions…

it just really sucks.

WHICH, by the way, isn’t to say that i have given up every ounce of hope, because i haven’t. i’m in the camp of people who are stubbornly clinging to a whisper still, to whatever possibility of getting picked up in the future or freed from wb’s clutches or anything else there is.

but it just really sucks that we’re not getting to celebrate fully during such a celebratory month. it really sucks that we’re even HAVING to cling to little tidbits of hope like that, instead of being happily and fully cemented in our proper ending.

feel like shit just want them back :(

Cardan’s fingers dig into my back. He’s trembling, and whether it is from ebbing magic or horror, I am not sure. But he holds me as though I am the only solid thing in the world.
