#Some people are weird

[my-soliloquy-chamber]

Years and years ago, I worked for a man who divorced his wife in secret. Apparently, he’d filed for divorce without telling her and then intercepted the paperwork that was sent to her address - which was of course their shared address - so that she 1. never knew he was divorcing her and 2. never responded to the paperwork which would eventually grant him an automatic divorce after a set period of time.

As far as I know, he never did anything with this divorce. He didn’t break up or move out or tell her. It was discovered because she noticed her marital status on some official government paperwork and thought there was something wrong, which of course wasn’t the case. (Well… there was something very wrong with her ex husband, but the marital status was correct.)

I quickly left that job (he was awful to work for shockingly) and didn’t keep in touch with anyone from the team, so I don’t know if she left him or not. If he mustered up some kind of reasonable explanation for his actions. If he ended up in a padded cell pumped full of drugs.

It will forever haunt me that I don’t know what happened.

i love the fact that I purposely never specified my gender or pronouns - this has (so far) resulted in 2 accounts telling me how "handsome" I am which I immediately deleted

Anon jikook has the go pro with them so they obviously won't sit at the same side. They were sitting across eachother many of the times in NYC as well when no one else was there.

yeah I don't even know why anyone would point this out lol was it supposed to be a gotcha or something

Okay, waking up to a fake bad review asking for good reviews for their friend’s fic was not how I was hoping to start today...

It is just a very wild experience to have people in my real life super excited to chat with me about the playlists Taylor made only to open twitter and be hit with the dumbest think pieces ever

I'm done with this fandom. Some people are crazy. Blaming Niall for Liam's death is insane for real.

this is just my opinion but i think any good media needs obsession behind it. it needs passion, the kind of passion that's no longer "gentle scented candle" and is now "oh shit the house caught on fire". it needs a creator that's biting the floorboards and gnawing the story off their skin. creators are supposed to be wild animals. they are supposed to want to tell a story with the ferocity of eating a good stone fruit while standing over the sink. the same protective, strange instinct as being 7 and making mud potions in pink teacups: you gotta get weird with it.

good media needs unhinged, googling-at-midnight kind of energy. it needs "what kind of seams are invented on this planet" energy and "im just gonna trust the audience to roll with me about this" energy. it needs one person (at least) screaming into the void with so much drive and energy that it forces the story to be real.

sometimes people are baffled when fanfic has some stunning jaw-dropping tattoo-it-on-you lines. and i'm like - well, i don't go here, but that makes sense to me. of fucking course people who have this amount of passion are going to create something good. they moved from a place of genuine love and enjoyment.

so yeah, duh! saturday cartoons have banger lines. random street art is sometimes the most precious heart-wrenching shit you've ever seen. someone singing on tiktok ends up creating your next favorite song. youtubers are giving us 5 hours of carefully researched content. all of this is the impossible equation to latestage capitalism. like, you can't force something to be good. AI cannot make it good. no amount of focus-group testing or market research. what makes a story worth listening to is that someone cares so much about telling it - through dance, art, music, whatever it takes - that they are just a little unhinged about it.

one time my friend told me he stayed up all night researching how many ways there are to peel an orange. he wrote me a poem that made me cry on public transportation. the love came through it like pith, you know? the words all came apart in my hands. it tasted like breakfast.

normalize sexualizing that old woman without having mommy issues. maybe i don't want to be her pet because i'm traumatized. maybe i want to be her pet because she's hot. you ever think of that.
