Oh! Hold on since we're talking about World Tour, you could make Barb's invasion a pretty pivotal moment for everyone if you play the cards right. 

World Tour happens only a few months after the first movie, at most, so there hasn't really been time for the Borrowers to fully integrate with the rest of the village. Sure, they've moved into the village and everything but, in terms of expectations and how things are run, it's like they're two separate tribes inhabiting the same place.

So when Poppy and Branch leave Kismet and the Snack Pack every one take it as Kismet in charge of the Borrowers and The Pack in charge of the Forest Trolls. This leads to all of the Borrower trolls making it into the Tunnels (Minus a few defenders and a couple caretakers who jumped in to rescue a group of trollings) but only the Snack Pack and a handful of Forest Pop trolls were able to make it without being snatched. The snack pack goes off to infiltrate the rock concert like they do in Canon, leaving the Borrowers in charge.

The entire tribe, either in cells, tunnels, or otherwise, were all left to think. Pondering the question of "why now?". For the first time in centuries they were all free and they did it on their own. What right did any of these other trolls have to claim Their happiness. They were left to rot in that cage for centuries, over what? A couple Pieces of string? And now this spoiled rich kid thinks she has ANY right to Lecture THEM about "real world problems"? Even separated the entire tribe is unified under the banner of "Fuck this. Fuck Barb and Fuck the Strings." Pop trolls always get back up and this time? They're coming back swinging.

(TL;DR: The whole tribe gets a chance to be feral. As a treat.)

My live reaction but seriously this is amazing!! I’m gonna use this if ya don’t mind

With no specific ship in mind but

Imagine how easy it must be to get Branch flustered and cutely confused after so many years of not getting a truly kind or flattering think said to him.

Someone compliments his eyes (either the color, shape or other) and he blushes like a schoolgirl getting her first kiss

Or someone compliments his strength or knowledge and he's so confused because why are you being this kind and why am I feeling warm and fuzzy?

The possibilities are endless and I might expand on this later

on this 1st anniversary of unreal unearth, we receive hozier yapping onstage for 10 minutes about hitting his head (and cillian murphy) while likely on an ungodly amount of cold meds.

reddit keeps sending me to a subreddit all about complaining abt taylor swift and like. i don't believe in ethical billionaires and i think she's not a good person and i disagree with a lot of her actions. but man you guys are not winning the "we are not misogynists" war when every other post is just "lol she sucks at singing and her clothes are ugly and i hate her hair and all she does is whine and complain" with no actual critique of like. her actions. the way she treats her fans. her constant money grabbing. her reliance on a thin shield of performative feminism without even the most basic speaking up to back it. her refusal to acknowledge genocide. her refusal to back down on her personal impact on climate change re her private jet usage. saying lol she's ugly is not the same as those things and you are not cool for saying it.

Separated into chapters you say!? 👀👀👀

I love the album, it's SO GOOD and it has every single thing detailed and tied, such impeccable storytelling again, the music beat are low but catchy and her writing is just over the moon as always! 🤍✒️📄🕯

I just adore this album & era for us.😍

The Rojas - Mendez Ranch 🇲🇽🐎

Now that Esmeralda is finally here, I thought it’d be cool to give y’all an exterior tour of the Rojas Mendez ranch. 🎩 tip to the beautiful build from (Origin ID: Bookdragon4ever) , it took me three weeks while I was waiting for the horse ranch pack to renovate it in the style of the Rojas Mendes family, but it was worth it.

In my mind, I pictured what their ancestral home would look like and incorporated those features into the ranch.

There’s a second house to the left of the main where the ranch hands stay  during the busy season. There are extra beds when they need to hire extra help, as well as extra room for storage.

The ranch hand quarters lead straight into the courtyard, which lets them stay close to the horses.

Behind the quarters are the stables where their horses, Tialoc & La Llorona live. On the other side is the training area where they can stretch their legs, play and train. 

Definitely one of my favorite places; the back courtyard of the main house is perfect for barbecues, and a popular spot in the warmer weather. It leads right to Isamar’s garden, but you’ll see more of that pretty soon in the next Rojas - Mendez posts. 

I’ll be showing off more of the house soon; I don’t wanna show too much because I want you to enjoy it organically as the story unfolds.

Hope you enjoyed it!

Just saw mitski and bawled my eyes out

I'm thinking about ghost stories.

I'm thinking how ghost stories are so many things, but so often they are histories.

And I think how many times ghost investigators will look into the records of a place and learn about the people who lived and worked there, the ones who were never important enough to make history, but some detail about their life matches up to that unexplained smell, or that snatch of tune you can hear hummed when you pass that room, or those odd shadows.

And in some small way, by telling that ghost story, you bring that person into the present. Even if they had nothing to do with those odd sensations we can't otherwise explain, we are invoking them. We are raising this distant person from obscurity and remembering them, learning their duties or their tragedies or their crimes.

We tell ghost stories to scare ourselves. We tell them to entertain.

And we tell them say "this person was here. This happened. This mattered."

I love that building. Even without any show inside it, it's still alive, it's still so vibrant it makes my heart ache.

My very first Punchdrunk experience - my visit to Sleep No More, the random decision that would change my life - I spent a lot of time exploring the set. I was enchanted by it, and hardly paid any attention to the characters. When Punchdrunk came closer to home, I thought that would be my main way of engaging with the show, spending lots of time exploring and rummaging and just existing in this imagined space. But over time I found the characters and the story happening all around me much more alluring, ever changing, endless rewatch value. Then I had less time for letters and clues and taking the time to slow down and appreciate the world.

But I still loved it. I still noticed when a new layer of graffiti was put on the walls, when a new sign was installed, when they gave the palace a writing desk complete with tiny, exquisitely detailed, custom MYCENAE stamps.

The way businesses around Troy had custom printed matchbooks. The way the prices were all in Drachma. The scents that became a fingerprint of the show, the posters whose designs carpet the inside of my mind.

Even without the soundscape, even without the gods and mortals racing through its alleys, this city is alive. This world is beautiful.

this might be controversial but i would trust taylor swift to write a broadway musical

[johannepetereric]

I love that when K-Pop and Hispaña/Reggaeton fought over Branch, he was literally dancing for both!
