Me and a friend just got into it over that top10 Sonic females video, here is my take:
1. Blaze the Cat, not like other girls, my genderbent-Riverdale-Jughead beauty, I'm gonna go further than Shane Dawson ever would. Call me fucking Douglas Spink the way I'm gonna break the law 4 that pu$$y 💯😈💦
2. Rouge the Bat, phat titties n ass, experienced and whorepilled. Ride or die for Shadow and Omega, definitely let's the gang hit. Just such a solid option but overrated and too easy for me personally.
3. Sticks the Badger, she's my unhinged goblincore rabiosexual waifu, she definitely foams at the mouth and she definitely foams on the dick. I still fucking love Sonic Boom so I'm adding her. They should've changed Sonic's arm color back tho.
4. Wave the Swallow, Sonic Riders lit and I'm sick of pretending it's not. She don't got a mouth or hands but I know for a FACT that cloaca does tricks on it. Also she's smart af and prob knows how to make a pipebomb.
5. Tikkal, she a trad-pilled monarchist native-Latina, also she's a ghost so that's extra hot. She can touch me but I can't touch her, very mormon, I see why Guptill included her.
6. Vanilla the Rabbit (Cream's mom), Rabbit milfy she definitely had more babies than Cream with those motherbearing hips, she just ate them cuz she's a Rabbit and it made her thiccer. It's how she's the size of an average human mother, like Guptill89 said. Nature is beautiful.
7. Amy Rose, she a flatbody yandere who's willing to sacrifice everything for the greater good. Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris and Ava Braun want to be her. Also she uses a hammer so she's one of those scrawny bodybuilder types, meaning she could punt me into a wall if I wanted to killing me instantly. And she can lobotomize me with her 3 perfect quills, like a reverse 50s housewife. If Sonic don't want her than I can have her, I want her to kill me.
8. Cosmo, literally just Gardevior also an alien AND a plant, I want her to photosynthesize on this pussy and let me pollinate her. She may be Tail's age but she not from Earth, the age of consent doesn't apply here, also she's a plant. Don't remember Sonic X well but I remember she was bad.
9. Sally Acorn, bland and manipulative, honestly mostly because of Ken Penders writing female characters like that in the Sonic archie comics but there wasn't there much to begin with. Wouldn't smash cuz she'd prob get attached and stalk me (not in the hot way).
10. Julie-sue the Echidna, she is a fucking abomination and the culmination of Ken Penders entire fucking influence on the comics, I HATE HER I HATE HER I HATE HER. she's a child of incest canonically and fucking looks like it. I replaced Mina the Mongoose with Sticks on this list because normally I'd not count comic characters but Julie-sue is so awful I have to include her just to say how much I want to kill her. I will hunt her to the ends of the earth like a dog and I'll kill her like a pig.
Anyways that's it (*^▽^)/★*☆♪
What's your top 10 hottest Sonic females?

A Statement From Aijamisespava
Hi everyone, I hope you all are doing well. I just wanted to hop on here and have a little chat.
First off, happy Eurovision month! I can't believe that in a week we will have seen the First Semi-Final and have our first qualifiers! I can taste the discourse as I'm sure most others can as well.
Second, you may have noticed that every Saturday I would make a random post just for fun to keep checking in and sharing random things. However, I don't think I will be able to put up a post this upcoming Saturday.
To put it simply: I will be going home from school and starting my summer break on Friday. And between that and finals, I'm really REALLY busy and don't think I can put something up in time.
To put it complex: On Tumblr, we have talked a lot about banning Israel from Eurovision this year due to the genocide in Gaza. You may have noticed that I didn't rank or talk about the song as well as the song for Azerbaijan for the monstrosities taking place in Nagorno-Karabakh. You may also notice (and I make rather clear) that I am an American Eurovision fan and have kept up with the news about the college encampments happening around the country among other places. My school is one of the places that had an encampment until it was stopped and destroyed by brutal force. Students were injured and arrested in this. Because of that, my mental health has really taken a plummet. I've had no motivation to do schoolwork, hence why I'm really busy this finals season as opposed to others. And even if I wasn't flooded with these finals (which in my opinion should be canceled), I probably would want to take this weekend off to rest and heal my mind from these painful events.
Luckily, what I was already planning on posting is already up. justastargirl9 is my Instagram, and I have a story highlight titled "esc in 30 days" where you can see my 30 day Eurovision Song Challenge by ESC Shane. You may know a lot of these, and some may even be unpopular (ignore "Most Overrated" though because I don't find a lot of the entries overrated).
While I will be taking this weekend off to recover, I should be back to talk about the big show as we are so close to the end, and I want to finish the season I started. Thank you for bearing with me on this, and don't hesitate to reach out to someone if you need anything. This is Mental Health Awareness Month too after all.
I love you all, and I look forward to seeing our favorites on stage together.

mid-may.
i've been having a pleasant string of almost-summer days that make me grateful. last saturday, amber and i went to cirque du soleil and had what seemed to be a life-changing and eye-opening experience - at least in the immediate aftermath, when we talked about leaving our boring, everyday lives to join the circus. (my toxic trait is believing that i can develop the capabilities necessary to be a cirque du soleil performance if i wanted to, even now, in my close to middle age) the human body is an absolute marvel. we saw mesmerizing contortionists, a man stacking chairs to an unbelievable height while also performing acrobatics, a man whose feet were strapped to one long stilt, who was launched into the air and did several flips before landing in perfect balance - it was insane and thrilling and now i truly believe every one should see one of these performances at least once in their life. after the circus, we went to my friend beth's 30th birthday party and it was cute. i'm trying to live more of an alcohol-free life, but it's difficult when i say i'll only drink on special occasions and every occasion seems special. got a bit tipsy, played with a dog, stood outside smoking a cigarette and talking about the upcoming movie, "killers of the flower moon." and when a friend of mine gets tipsy too, sometimes we get closer than we probably should. easy affection, a strange pull, some yearning for a deeper intimacy that might not be wholly appropriate given the context of everything. or maybe just a little bit of a harmless flirtation. the next day is sunday and i'm too hungover to go to church. i meet my sister at my parents' house later though, and we head to bang bang to stand in line for 20 minutes and get ice cream. we walked all the way there, which was impressive, but maybe a bit unnecessary. i'd invited conor out for ice cream, but he flipped it over on me and instead invited me over to a little party he and his friends were having at Tommy and Ronan's place. i wanted to go just to properly meet one of their friends, Shane, who had just immigrated to Toronto a couple of days before and has maybe the coolest natural hair colour i've ever seen. my sister and i get to their party, which is happening on the shared patio space on their building, so there's a bunch of random people there, and we find everyone talking to a group of australian girls. i play it cool with shane, pretending to be just noticing him, and strike up a nice conversation. he seems sweet, and a bit shy and sensitive, but also like he can have a good time. a nice addition to the group, in any case, but i guess they've all been friends forever. later we go to stackt market, and shane confides in me that he thinks it's overrated and he's bored, so i suggest going to crews. to my delight, he seems excited about the idea, but conor and i had been texting renee and she said she was at karaoke, so we went to meet her there instead. it might've been the wrong move since we ended up having to get a separate room anyway and barely seeing renee, and crews honestly probably would've been more fun, but it is what it is. shane leaves early saying he's tired. he leaves without letting most people know, and i feel bad he didn't have more fun, but there's always next time. the next day i meet my david, amber, and michael (+ michael's wife) at the beach. it's a nice day out and we walk along the board walk for a stretch before heading to a barbecue restaurant for lunch. my friend liam, his friend william and william's room mate meet us there. i feel kind of bad because i think liam thought we were going to have an actual beach day - a day of casual drinks on the shore, playing beach volleyball or some other sport - but really we just wanted to be outside in the nice weather and go get food. i think i accuse him of misunderstanding what i said when i invited him, but really i should've just apologized. in any case, he said he'd be ready for next time - that he would get some sort of ball himself and we'd all be able to play. he lives in the beaches but apparently rarely goes to the beach, but next time we'll make a day of it. our waitress at the restaurant is unnecessarily rude, making mistakes and accusing us of them and refusing to answer questions in any helpful way. it's honestly astounding, and i make a loud remark about how she needs to learn how to just do her fucking job that i hope she hears while she's walking downstairs. at one point she'd brought us what she says is a pork sandwich, which none of us ordered. she goes, "well, it's someone's, i wrote it down," and we say none of us ordered it so she goes back to the kitchen and comes back saying it's a brisket sandwich. our friend asks to confirm if it's pork or beef (since he can't eat pork), and she dismissively says something along the lines of, "i can't tell just by looking at it." so we ask her to go to the kitchen and check. and it was on her way back to the kitchen that i make a loud remark, and honestly after that she was quite a bit nicer to us so i think it worked. it's crazy how service can truly make or break a dining experience. we were 9 customers who were just trying to have a good time and enjoy the long weekend, and it seemed like this waitress with a stank ass attitude was making it her personal mission to ruin everything. to be honest, i think she was also a little bit racist or ignorant. maybe she was just a basic white blonde girl whose spent all her life in the beaches ever only with other white people, so she has no grasp of any possible experience beyond that. two of the people we were with were from cameroon and were asking her very reasonable questions that she was treating as stupid. i want her to try going to cameroon and ordering in french off of a menu that she doesn't understand. she literally had no patience or empathy, but i'm hoping she's just young and will grow out of that. after lunch, we walked along the beach some more and when we parted ways, i went home and took a nap until 9pm. all in all, it was a nice weekend with nice weather, and now i'm going to go back to trying to finally finish my portfolio.

snatcher for the ask game?
Okay im working on a paper rn so this one might be a lil shorter lol
First impression Oh this guys kinda fucked up (Weird)
Impression now This guy's kinda fucked up but at least he's funny about it (affectionate) We're also divorced 💔
Favorite moment From the main game, I think the mail delivery act has some of my favourite lines? This man has like 700 kids and he cares them so much /j From the DLCs, I think finding him in the crate? I lost my mind at that bc its like okay yeah he's dead but I like how his logic is "tickets are expensive, I'm gonna sneak on >:3" like dude, just steal some money or smth, its just as illegal as what you're doing now but at least you have a more solid chance of getting on smh
Idea for a story Idk post-deathwish he just gives hat kid a grocery list or smth bc he forgot to buy eggs /j Me and Yums have talked about stuff thats like post-game but its already stuff that everyones written about so idk what to put here LOL
Unpopular opinion Even though he's in my top 3 faves for AHIT, I do think he's a little overrated BUT I think he's so popular because he's one of the characters with the most lore so he's a lot easier to get attached too?
Favorite relationship I guess him and Hat Kid? I think fucked up hermit dude begrudgingly adopting weird 11 year old despite already somewhat having kids is a funny dynamic LMAO
Favorite headcanon Okay this is kind of from the Shane Frost comics so idk how much counts as a HC, but I do like the idea of him only really being noble through association of Vanessa? Like him being a painter and getting more opportunities because of his relationship with her is interesting? Plus I like his name from that comic better than some of the fandoms ones I see lol I also like seeing other people's hcs on what he likes to read bc I make jokes he only reads his murder book and law books, but tbh I think he'd like other stuff too, he seems like someone who would like stuff that makes him think?

A message for the WOY fandom
I speak to you all for the sake of Dan Povenmire and Jeff “Swampy” Marsh, Noah Z. Jones, Alex Hirsch, Daron Nefcy, Matt Youngberg and Francisco Angones, Chris Houghton, Shane Houghton, Matt Braly, Dana Terrace, and all the other creators of shows that get/got plenty of respect from Disney.
Here’s what happened 5 years ago, at least in my imagination and in accordance with what I learned about the cancellation...
EXECUTIVE: Gravity Falls is an absolute mega-hit! I wanted to give it a third season, but Alex insisted on ending it after two seasons. Oh well. Anyway, it's time for me to decide if Wander Over Yonder should continue. Let's see, counting the one-minute shorts that are going on as one full episode plus the 40 episodes from the second season that starts next week... that makes a total of... 80 episodes... hmm... No one ever did tell me if Craig had a third season in mind... I mean, I gave Fish Hooks three seasons without a second thought and it surpassed 100 episodes before it ended... It wasn’t as popular as Phineas and Ferb, but still... Maybe I could do the same for Wander...? Then again, viewers seem to love Gravity Falls and Star vs. the Forces of Evil even more - their ratings are the best I've ever seen. Wander, on the other hand, doesn't seem to have a lot of attention after the move to Disney XD. Also, it takes them a pretty long time to make even one episode. Y'know what? I think two seasons of Wander are enough. We have more cartoons in the works and we're on a time crunch here. Let me just pull out the cancellation stamp and note and we'll be ready. I’d hate to break the hearts of Craig and his colleagues, but that’s the business of television. Well, here goes nothin'...
(Wander stands outside, looking through the soundproof office window and trying to get the Executive's attention.)
WANDER: YOU'LL BE SAAHHH-REEEEEEEE!!!
Now, what is the takeaway?
Disney “didn’t see the need to make more” WOY for a reason. I always felt it involved the time spent making one 11-minute episode, the number of DTVA cartoons in the pipeline, and how well it fared in its first season on DXD when compared to GF and SvtFoE (at least in my opinion). Ever since the uncalled-for cancellation, I’ve been ambivalent about Disney’s television business and uneasy about the way the overrated shows are treated, but let’s get real here.
Lately, Twitter’s been getting some abusive posts that talk smack about Disney’s shows with SaveWOY tagged. This is all wrong. The shows Disney likes/liked best are not to blame for WOY’s misfortune, the “higher-up bosses of bosses of bosses” are. Believe me, I know. Did Hey Arnold fans aggravate fans of Nick’s most popular shows to get The Jungle Movie? No. Did Samurai Jack fans jeer popular CN shows and their fans to get one more season? No! Changing the bosses’ minds is all that matters. The cartoonists’ job is to make shows to entertain, not outclass each other, so dissing those shows won’t get us anywhere. By refraining from doing that, we’ll have a better chance at getting S3 for WOY. Be a Wander, not a Hater.
@crackmccraigen, whatever you’re up to, I hope you’re doing all right in these complicated times. I don’t know how long you plan to keep Kid Cosmic going, but I’m sure it’ll be a hit. That shouldn’t preclude the fact that Disney’s bosses will rectify their mistake and let you work on Wander’s third and final season, though, especially not after all the world has endured since the pandemic began. With so much effort the most dedicated fans have put in, they must be entitled to know just a little more about that third season, right? Who are you to leave your fans in a state of perpetual uncertainty? If you’re not in a position to give us more details, I understand. Whatever your plans are, I’m positive they’ll help make the 2020s more bearable. We don’t mind the delayed gratification.
What I’m trying to say is, we have a right to be bitter about the bosses’ actions, but as true Wander fans, we should know better than to deface the fan base. I am willing to check out the shows, but because of the bosses’ rash decision to cancel WOY after S2, I choose not to at this time. When you’re expressing interest in WOY, do it from the heart and think about how the people from all fandoms will feel when they discover your content. If anyone talks smack about WOY, just shun them, just like we learned from The Troll.
Be smart. Be logical. Be respectful of others. In time, you’ll gain more like-minded followers who’ll look up to you and find the inspiration they need to come up with their own meaningful ways to change the bosses’ minds. Someday, Wander will find proper closure on Disney+ as long as we keep our cool, ask nicely, have patience, and not lose our heads.
As the lyrics go, “all your helpful, friendly, good deeds will spread across the land!”
Man, that took a lot out of me.

Alright, lads — this is the last fill for this round of prompts, but once I’m done with a few longer fics I want to wrap up, I’ll be back to accept more :) Thanks for all the great suggestions! ❤
*
Shane doesn’t return to his desk after his ten o’clock meeting with upper management and a knot forms in Ryan’s stomach. It’s not hard to know why — it means they haven’t approved the new season of Ruining History and Ryan is disappointed but not surprised. BuzzFeed has been bleeding ever since they incorrectly assumed things could still function without a huge portion of their workforce. They’ve all been feeling the strain since the layoffs and honestly, motivation is so low, Ryan finds himself working from home more days of the week than he probably should, unable to conjure the effort to deal with the drag of office life.
He knows Shane hadn’t had high hopes going into the meeting, but he also knows that doesn’t make it easier to receive a resounding no for a project you’ve put your heart and soul into.
He logs out of his computer and makes his way upstairs, already knowing where Shane will probably be.
*
“Hey,” he says softly as the door to the roof shuts behind him. Shane’s sitting nearby on the end of one of the wooden loungers, hunched over his phone and scrolling through a page that looks suspiciously like LinkedIn. He locks the screen at the sound of Ryan’s voice.
“I’m not going to be good company,” Shane tells him with a sigh, looking almost as tired as he sounds.
“Yeah, I figured. Just wanted to check on you.”
“You think I’m going to throw myself off the roof?”
“I don’t think you’re that dramatic.”
“Maybe today’s the day I surprise you.”
Ryan takes a seat beside him, leaning over to nudge him gently with his shoulder. “Surprises are overrated. How about you stay on solid ground?”
Shane rests his elbows on his knees and rubs at his face wearily.
“They said no,” he sighs eventually, carding his fingers through his hair and Ryan reaches out carefully, brushing Shane’s bicep with his fingertips.
“Yeah, I figured.”
Shane blows out a harsher breath and sags. “Is the show that bad?”
“You know it’s not,” Ryan argues softly. “The show is great. It’s just bullshit budgeting.”
“I’m not asking for a lot.”
“I know. You know how cheap they are with everything.”
“Except for Unsolved.”
He says it with a hint of bitterness and Ryan pulls his hand back. Deep down, he knows Shane doesn’t mean it, that he’s just lashing out, but it still stings.
“I spent two weeks in meetings fighting for this season’s budget.”
“You’re fighting to have two nights at a Holiday Inn rather than one,” Shane argues. “You still have your own show at the end of the day.”
“Unsolved is just as much yours as it is mine,” Ryan tells him, but the way Shane looks at him silently is uncomfortably pointed. He meets Shane’s gaze and knows without a doubt that Shane’s about to fight back and it isn’t going to be pretty.
“Don’t humor me,” Shane warns and it’s clear his defenses are up already.
“I’m not! You think because you missed a couple of episodes at the beginning of the show that this isn’t your project too?”
“You do the majority of research,” Shane starts, using his fingers to list his points. “You plan where we visit, you help organize the sponsored episodes, you argue the budget with Katie. What do I do? React? Pull up a couple of comments from fans for Post Mortems? They won’t even let me write the Hot Daga anymore because they think it’s a waste of budget.”
Ryan lets the words settle for a moment, knowing he has to be careful with his response.
“I didn’t know you felt like that, Shane,” he says honestly.
“I don’t have anything,” Shane admits. “I have no outlet for what I want to do.”
Ryan sets his hand fully on Shane’s forearm, his throat going tight. He’s not sure he’ll be able to talk for a minute.
Eventually, after clearing his throat, he repeats, “I didn’t know, Shane.”
“I know you didn’t,” Shane says, rubbing at his face again. “I didn’t want you to.”
“Why wouldn’t you tell me?”
“You have enough to worry about,” Shane admits. “I was working on it.”
“You were job hunting,” Ryan replies, suddenly more aware of how often Shane’s been going out for long lunches that probably weren’t actually lunches.
Shane nods gently and Ryan finds himself folding over his own knees to press his face into his hands, taking careful breaths to stave off the panic.
“Ryan,” Shane says quietly, pressing a hand between his shoulders, and Ryan knows this isn’t about him, but it’s too much to process at once.
“I can’t do this without you,” Ryan tells him, voice muffled by his palms. “I don’t just mean going to haunted places. I mean everything.”
When he raises his head again, Shane’s gaze is watery and the lump in Ryan’s throat grows worse.
“You didn’t know that,” Ryan says, not a question, and Shane looks away, which is enough of an answer. “Shane.”
"Unsolved has always been your brain child," Shane tells him softly and Ryan's chest aches.
"You want to be more involved?" Ryan asks and Shane shrugs like he doesn't know.
"I need something to change," he admits. "But I don't know what."
Ryan nods and finds himself reaching out to set a hand on Shane's knee. Ryan's palm is clammy and his fingers are trembling, but he keeps them tightly tucked against his leg.
"I don't know how much I can promise from upper management, but whatever I can do to move things in the right direction, I will."
"I know," Shane tells him quietly, and it doesn't sound like a placation; it sounds like the truth.
"Just — " Ryan starts, glancing away to try to find his voice. "Just please don't leave."
The me remains unspoken, but when he meets Shane's gaze again, it's clear he knows.
Carefully, Shane rests a hand atop Ryan's own and squeezes gently.
"Okay," he says, and it's not a promise, but Ryan can work with that. He'll tend it carefully and water it daily until it grows stronger and can finally be the promise he wants.
"Okay," Ryan agrees.

Survey #235
“the monster you made is wearing the crown; i’ll be the king and you be the clown.”
What is your favorite move franchise? The Lion King. What was the last fast food you ate? I had a hot dog from Sonic and one of those pretzel twists things. What is the saddest book you’ve ever read? Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo. Do you prefer heroes or villains? Villains. Duh. They're like, always more interesting. What is something you think is overrated? Uhhh coffee, for one. But like what you like. What political cause are you most passionate about? Gay rights. What country would you most like to visit? South Africa. Have you ever considered having children? Literally the only period where I wanted kids was later into Jason's and my relationship. Hell, I wanted three while he was always like "onLY TWO." Now, I don't want a single one, ever. I would be an awful mother for many reasons. If you ever took field trips as a child, which was your favorite? The zoo with Dad, my then-best friend, and her mom. One and only time I've seen meerkats. I was so excited I almost cried. Do you have any weird family traditions? It's not like, a tradition, I think, but we have a unique thing where saying "I love you mostest period" is something Mom, Dad, and my sisters have used for all my life. It's a way of saying "I love you more than you could ever love me, no arguments." Now Sara's been dragged into it lmao. Have you ever considered acting? Nope. Who was the last person you slept next to? Sara. Do you think you can be in love and still cheat on your S.O.? You can't "be in love" with a person and fucking cheat on them, no. Do you subscribe to any streaming services? We have Netflix. Idk about anything else. Have you ever been in a physical fight? No. What is the most embarrassing thing anyone has on video of you? I don't even wanna know. Did you ever get lost as a child? Yep, in a Wal-Mart lmao. This old lady helped me find my fam. What is your favorite condiment? Honey mustard. Or ketchup. Depends. Have you ever had an existential crisis? Very surprisingly, not really. Do you like country music? Begone, demon. It's still so weird to me that I loved it as a kid, but I really just grew up with it. What color are the eyes of the person you love? Brown. What is your favorite kind of flower? I looooove orchids. What town were you born in? Not the best thing to share on the Internet, eh? Do you know how to play any card games? I only vaguely understood/understand Magic: The Gathering. It's honestly really fun, but very complex in rules. It was Jason's thing so he got me into it. I miss my PS3 working because I used to have the "Duels of the Planeswalkers" on there, and doing it digitally is much easier and helpful. I loved it mostly because the art is fucking incredible. It was an old little aspiration to wind up designing the art some day and I don't think I ever saw Jason more excited. What is something about your childhood that you miss? Being more into video games than I am now alskdjf;awe. I'm more of a viewer of let's plays now than an active gamer; meanwhile, as a kid, video games were my favorite things in the world. Did you ever have MySpace? Do you miss those days? Yeah, I had one. Honestly though I can barely remember it (other than the song on my page was "Pocketful of Sunshime" lmaooooo as well meerkat-flooded), so it doesn't matter. What is the best television show you’ve ever watched? Meerkat Manor is my favorite show of all time, but as a proper show could have been better. AP made up their own shit and deviated from the KMP facts A LOT (guess what: Mozart killed a competitor's litter before; not exactly MM's her, right?), and not only was that confusing, but just annoying. Give me the real shit; don't just tweak stuff for dramatic effect. I could list a novel of lies in the series. Now, what I feel is the best show without a meerkat bias and just has an overall good plot. I kinda wanna say Supernatural, but the boys dying five million times got old. Possibly Fullmetal Alchemist. Are there any songs you can’t listen to because they bring back memories? I 110% refuse to hear "Stairway to Heaven." Have you ever saved someone’s life? Funny this is brought up after recent events. My sweetheart online bud had a cerebral aneurysm while having an extremely difficult time talking to me, and no one was home quite yet. Her final message was concerning and she didn't reply to me for a while, so I wound up messaging her again after a bit, and her boyfriend heard the b.net notification sound. Saw it was me and asked what was up. Told him, and he figured out she wasn't sleeping on the couch, she was passed out. He told me he never would have known if I hadn't said something. So does that count, even though I didn't like, physically save her? Have you ever broken any major bones? No. Are there any websites you’ve used for over 10 years? Good question? Idk. WAIT HOLD THE FUCK UP, KM's 10th birthday is coming up real soon. Wow. I know YouTube has been much longer. Idr when I joined deviantART. Maybe there's more, I dunno. Do you have any siblings? If so, what are their ages? My two immediate are 22 (ew) and 26 (double ew). Anything exciting taking place today? No, today was A N X I E T Y !! ! ! !! !! What are you craving? Okay so I have been MEGA in "the mood" lately and it's frustrating especially because I don't masturbate so I have like nO OUTLET. Who did you last hit? Nobody saving for when I was a kid repeatedly slapped my sister's arm for doing something I don't remember. How do you do in school? It depends on the subject, but in anything, I am a MASSIVE procrastinator, and I need to fix that. Schoolwork, good good, homework in the library, good good, but when I'm at home, I cannot seem to convince myself to work. As Sara puts it, home is like my "safe" place, and I don't want to bring school into it. Adjusting to school life again after like... two whole years or so of doing NOTHING at all, almost every day all day, is very difficult. I'm SO glad I picked school again, it's just a lot for a person who was so isolated and void of responsibilities to get used to. What’s your biggest goal? Right now, continue to improve my mental health. Fight social anxiety and AvPD. Who have you texted today? Just Sara. Who do you aspire to be like when you grow up? In most ways, especially in kindness, wisdom, relentless determination, passion, creativity, etc. etc. etc. etc., Mark. I think it's obvious he's Role-Model #1. I would loooove to be like Jane Goddall and Steve Irwin, too, feeling with such ferocious potency for animals and how they should be respected and loved. UM AND ALSO, EUGENIA COONEY IS THE SWEETEST PERSON ON THE ENTIRE GODDAMN EARTH AND I WOULD LOVE TO BE AS FRIENDLY AND PRECIOUS AS SHE IS. Oh, and then there's Shane Dawson. I relate to him SO much. He is the most selfless angel that seems SO down-to-earth and relatable as hell. I feel like he could be like, my best friend. Ahhhhhhh there are so many more, I love talking about my inspirations, but I'll chill here. Do you know if you want to go to college or not? I'm in college right now, and I desperately want it to stay that way. I'm fucking going somewhere in my life, and the education it provides will bring me closer to that. College is far from mandatory for everyone, but I feel it is beneficial for me. Do you like grapefruits? I haven't had one in a LONG time, so I don't really remember how they taste. I just know sour. What do you think of guys who wear eyeliner? *drools in Darkiplier* the fuck do you think Do you like online games? Only World of Warcraft, really. Who’s one person you care about more than yourself? Okay, real talk, and I hope this is everybody's answer. No one. I'm putting my goddamn self and my mental peace first for the rest of my life. Are there any pets you’re wishing for? I want another ball python. When’s the last time you used hand sanitizer? Two days ago when Mom and I stopped somewhere to eat. Wearing anything that isn’t yours? No. What type of bread did you use on the last sandwich you made? White. How many doors are in your house? Uhhh six. What was the last compliment you received, that made you smile? Sara said she was really proud of me, and to me, that's one of the biggest compliments you CAN give me. Think you need to lose weight? How much? ugh When was the last time you watched a VHS movie? I don't have a clue. We kept our VHS longer than most, though. We had too many movies on it. What event would you go back in time to see, if you could? Ummmm I dunno. Do you remember the last thing you said you wanted? To hug Sara. Who was the last friend you hung out with&what’d you do together? Sara stayed for a week. We did a lot. Who is the person, other than a spouse, that you are closest to? Sara. If you watched it, who was your favorite Hey Arnold! character? Oh my god, I hated that stupid show, but one of my sisters liked it. Have any good school pictures? or do they all just suck? There is literally ONE picture from elementary school where I think I looked pretty. Do you like trying on clothes or not? & Why? NO. I try to avoid it if I can. It's just annoying to change clothes for like five seconds. What are your thoughts on marriage? It's sweet, but I've come to find it... kinda needless for the most part? Like I know it has financial pluses and the symbolism is beautiful, but it's just that: symbolism originating from fantasies (imo, don't scream at me). It only adds pressure to stay in a dying relationship and makes splitting much more complicated. BUT, even with all that said, I personally want to get married someday, but only if I am *sure* about this person. It's the symbolism I like. That and it's so ingrained into my head that that's the "end goal" of relationships, so I'm pretty much just conditioned to want it. How long have you lived in the current place you’re living? Two years. Do you plan on moving anytime soon, if so where? I want to, but I am not in the financial position or at a level of independence where I'm ready for that. Are you more of a follower, or a leader? Be honest. This may alter with the situation, but mostly, I'm definitely a follower. Are your dreams/nightmares in black&white or color? I've heard of this condition before and it really intrigues me. I dream in color. Have you ever wanted to be some sort of hero outside of video games? I mean, define "hero." Like an action superhero in a literal way, nooooo. I'd die on Day #1, lmao. As a hero/inspiration as a person, of course; who doesn't? Will you admit that you’re at least somewhat superficial? I mean, probably in some places? How often do you go to the mall closest to you? Almost never ever. Our mall sucks and has experienced too many shootings. Do you still count with your fingers, even if only every so often? Yep. Like, always. Have you ever gone on a road trip with just friends? No. Well, I went to the beach with my friend and her mom, but just for a day or two because my separation anxiety from Mom got too bad oof. Without trying, do you act differently around different friends? Depends on the friend. I don't "fake it," just how reserved I am can move around. What was the last thing you drew/wrote on your own or someone else's skin? Probably a butterfly on my wrists when I was actively part of the Butterfly Project community. The last time you spent money, what was it on & how much did you spend? $1.25 for a drink at school. What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on one piece of clothing? Idk, but definitely not a lot. In elementary school, were you more of the bully or the bullied? Thankfully, neither. Do you like when a spouse is clingy, or can you not stand that? I'm sure to a certain degree it would be annoying, but for the most part, hell, I think it's attractive. Especially since I NEED validation you like me. How much do you say you walk in a week outside of school &/or work? Just around my house if you exclude school. Is there anything you wish your parents did differently in raising you? I wish they'd given us chores. Wish Mom didn't spank us. What would you do if the last person you texted asked you out? Lol yo we JUST broke up like an hour ago. We're not ready to get back together yet, obviously. Don't worry a bit, we're both cool. Still best friends, even. To compress a long story, needed personal growth and distance have brought us to returning to just friends. For now, at least. Have you ever received a scholarship? I think so... but not like a huge one, I believe. Who was the last person who got frustrated with you? Most likely Mom. When was the last time you mopped your kitchen floor? I myself have never mopped it. Or maybe once. What is your favorite work of art? I mentioned the Denialism painting in my last survey. What was the last appointment or plan you had to cancel? Plan, my next one with my psychiatrist. What spur-of-the-moment decision that you’ve made has had the biggest impact on your life? I don't know if any have truly changed my life. The ones that did (that I remember) were pondered over. Do you know anyone who is (or has been) a refugee? I don't think so, What is your best friend’s worst habit? She doesn't have faith in herself for ANYTHING lj;ljalwie Do you like spinach and artichoke dip? alksd;fjwei no Have you ever felt like you were about to pass out, but didn’t? Yep, a couple times. What was the name of one of your childhood imaginary friends? I didn't have any. What’s your favorite phase of the moon? Full. Do you wish you were richer? I physically refuse to be anything less than stable, hopefully even above that, once I'm independent. We've been poor all my life and it is fuck-ing HARD. It's stressful as a motherfucker and I am done with it. Very. What’s a middle name you like? Quinn. Fits a lot. I planned on giving that middle name to my hypothetical daughter. Are you scared of spiders? y e a h Do you weigh the same as your mom? No. Were you a Mary-Kate and Ashley fan? Like the average 90s/early 2000s kid. Coffee mugs, teacups, or water bottles? Uh, aesthetically? Teacups, probably. Bubblegum or cotton candy? Gum. I like the taste and texture of cotton candy, it is just RIDICULOUSLY sweet. It bothers my sensitive teeth sometimes. Do you prefer to drink soda from cans, bottles or cups? Cans. They get the coldest. Game you were best at in P.E./gym? Idk, I didn't excel at any. What do you have for breakfast on an average day? I'll typically just have a meal replacement shake or a Pop-Tart. Favorite non-chocolate candy? Sour Punch Straws (gotta be red). Favorite book you had to read for school? The Outsiders. Most frequently worn pair of shoes? My flip-flops, 'cuz they're easy to just slip on. Ideal weather? Cool but not windy (a light breeze is fine) with a partly-cloudy sky. Obsession from childhood? Webkinz. Favorite crystal? Dragon's breath opal. Favorite activity to do in warm weather? Swim or stay the fuck inside. Favorite activity to do in cold weather? Taking pictures in the snow. Five songs to describe you? "Get Up" by Mother Mother, "That's What You Get" by Paramore, uhhh... I don't feel like thinking over this any longer. My iPod isn't near me to scan through what I have, so yeah. Best way for someone to bond with you? Let's have deep philosophical talks about like the meaning of life 'n shit. Top 5 favorite Vines? Oh my god, this is impossible. To name some that come to mind first, in no order: "It's Wednesday, m'dudes *insert mating call*", "I cOUld'vE dROPPED My croiSSANt," "this is why mom doesn't FUCKING LOVE YOU," that one at a club where a girl is doing smoke tricks and the dude just goes "check that out" (or "wow," idr) or something similar (I couldn't find it), and omfg I adore that Snoop Dogg one with the little boy just semi-dancing to that iconic song???? I LOVE IT??????? Man, there are so so many more. Very honorable mention: "a d a m". Ads you have stuck in your head? None, thankfully. What is the first meme you remember seeing? Uhhh maybe Happy Bunny? Idk. Sci-fi, fantasy, or superheroes? Fantasy. Favorite type of cheese? American. What saying or quote do you live by? There's a lot I've picked up on and cling to. #1 is perhaps "Deal with life, or life deals with you." What are you currently stressed about? Some... things I realized about myself that disgust me. Favorite fairy tale? Shrek is a goddamn fairy tale and I will fight to the death against anyone who claims otherwise. Favorite tradition? I don't really have one anymore, but I remember as a kid, I would NEVER let Mom forget to throw some "reindeer food" outside for them lol. Talent you’re proud of having? One that warrants pride, exactly? Not just random talents? Well, uhhh. I suppose writing. I mean it modestly, I really do, but as a kid, my teachers all the way through high school always thought I was cheating or a parent did my papers at home. Some were only convinced by me writing in the classroom. I don't feel as good about my writing as I did in high school, but I am sill proud of excelling in it and taking writing anywhere seriously. If you were a video game character, what would your catchphrase be? I mean, name the game and genre here. Probably like "what the fuck" at like, everything, because I already do that. If you were an anime character, what genre of anime would it be? Like, based on my current life? I dunno. A sad and repetitive one with some bright days to it. Ohhh, and the color scheme and lighting vary with my mental state. Yo that would be dope. Character you relate to? lmao THRALL from WoW for being like "can y'all bastards just chill tf out" until he goes off to an isolated land away from civilization bc he's seen enough shit. Also compelled to help. Any good luck charms? I don't believe in those. Least favorite flavor of food or drink? As far as consistent flavors go, normally cherry or grape. Left or right handed? I'm a righty. Favorite potato food? Fries, when I wish they weren't. Earth tones or jewel tones? Jewel. How many phone numbers do you have memorized? Literally just Mom's. Not even mine.

- I understand that a lot of people think Shane is overrated, but I hate the violent confessions about him. His character is special to me because I also went through depression and suicidal thoughts, and found him and sdv during that time. To see people say they wish they could "make him suffer" just because they don't like him makes me feel sick to my stomach. He's important to a lot of people who play the game.

Ronda Rousey [ENG]
Here we are. Some time ago, I asked what were your thoughts or opinions about Ronda Rousey and you answered several times. Before we talk about her, though, let's take a little recap: Ronda Rousey is "an American professional wrestler, actress, author, mixed martial artist and judoka. She is currently signed to WWE, performing on the Raw brand, where she is the current Raw Women's Champion in her first reign. " (via Wikipedia) and "Rousey has been credited for breaking down several hurdles regarding female mixed martial arts sports, as well as challenging barriers. She has been regarded as a symbol of female empowerment, and has been praised for she became one of the highest pay-per-view draws in the world Rousey was described by Fox Sports as "one of the defining athletes of the 21st century." (via Wikipedia). She joined WWE in 2017/18, so it's been more than a year that she has been in the business of World Wrestling Entertainment: in this very short space of time she did a lot, winning the Raw Women's Championship against Alexa Bliss at SummerSlam. This has attracted criticism, even on my part, since there was actually no real construction of Ronda: she was based solely on her charisma outside the WWE. Ronda Rousey could be called a non-character: she doesn’t have a gimmick, she doesn’t actually have a construction but she’s based almost exclusively on the charisma that she has built over the years in the world of MMA, and in part inspired by the gimmick (but very partly) by Rowdy Roddy Piper. The situation has become increasingly controversial with the feud against Becky Lynch, the subsequent inclusion of Charlotte Flair in the match, the Royal Rumble, the heel turn. And we will talk about this today. Almost all of those who answered me have generally defined her "overrated", "disrespectful" and even "dangerous". Let's start with an interesting answer from @theonelazywolf. "I'm saying this with out any fear Ronda needs to go She has been given everything in the wwe with out having to work for it She keeps saying SHE put the women in the main event of WM she didnt She can't talk on the mic she cant talk over booing crowds There is more but im falling asleep" Another interesting answer was this  "I don’t hate ronda at all , I actually appreciate everything she did outside of WWE. but that is my problem , everything she did OUTSIDE of WWE .in wwe she is a rookie but she is not being treated as a rookie , for some reason wwe treat her like a returning legend or something, she can barely cut a promo and she can’t call a match in the ring and doesn’t know how to deal with the crowd or what to do if shit went south or off script , yet for some reason she is main eventing Wrestlemania. Also the whole shoot promo she did , was one of the biggest slaps on the face ever. Not because she said it , but because that was actually wwe’s way of getting heat on her. Basically what I’m saying is that wwe is bringing these ufc fighters who have credibility with non wrestling fans and instead of using that credibility to get more fans , they make them come , beat the shit out of everyone, tell the world that wrestling is fake and that these people aren’t real athletes , then they take millions and leave. The ronda Rousey situation is making an embarrassment out of the wrestling world. Wwe don’t show any respect for there wrestlers and wonder why the rest of the world doesn’t respect them. While I’m at it, it’s Wrestlemania 35, it’s 2019, and people like Batista, HHH , shane mcmahon have matches , yet the SD women’s champ don’t yet , the raw tag champs don’t yet , two members of the shield don’t yet , and more and more and more names of hard working deserving young talents don’t." from @emanmagdy1 Others argue instead that Ronda is excessively dangerous in the ring, citing cases of injuries such as that of Alexa Bliss (who had some concussions). What comes out of these answers, therefore, is not so much the fact that she is not good, because Ronda is really good, but that she has focused too much on her charisma by neglecting essential elements such as the construction of promos, the character and above all what she said against the WWE and generally against wrestling. Here an essential question arises, does WWE need Ronda Rousey? It seems so, as pointed out in the answers: she didn’t have a period of time at NXT (such as Shayna; Marina and Jessa) she was immediately included in the title picture with Nia Jax and then they used an opponent like Alexa Bliss to give credibility around her. Nothing new in fact, the same thing happened with Brock Lesnar on his return but the difference lies in the absurd speed with which it was done, as well as the different background. Moreover, the feud Rousey/Lynch/Flair didn’t help the construction of Ronda, if anything it worsened it: storyline too heavy, with extreme overbooking, up to almost ridiculous (with the totally random inclusion of Travis, Rousey’s husband) not actually allowing the viewer to fully understand the whole storyline, with consequent confusion and finally the typical turn heel of the UFC fighter that relies on the criticism that is always made to those who follow wrestling from those who are totally strangers to them, that is “wrestling is fake.". A obvious turn, in my opinion, perhaps not necessary as the two people I mentioned before point out (because this is also questioning Brock Lesnar himself, a former UFC fighter too) but maybe this turn heel would have been good outside of this storyline. Maybe it would have worked more. At this time, this feud has lost its meaning because it is based too much on the charisma of Rousey and above all on the constant need of the WWE to make people talk about themselves. And they’re succeeding. To the detriment of those who have been working there for years, those who don't have an opportunity despite fighting to get it. What then emerges from this whole situation is not so much a criticism of Ronda Rousey as a person or a wrestler, but a criticism against WWE that points in an excessively obsessive way on an idealized character of Rousey who, perhaps, never existed in WWE. A criticism that shifts to meritocracy, to emphasize that, perhaps, it would be more appropriate to focus on those who grew up within the business and let go of the UFC figters in part in order to allow them to settle well, create a character, remaining coherent with what they do and still have strong credibility (like Shayna), not just focusing on something idealized. We note therefore that the criticisms are not really on Rousey, but on how the WWE is using it and on the policy it adopts with her: giving opportunities, giving a title without construction and totally relying on the concept that "UFC fighters> WWE athletes". Perhaps the basic problem therefore is not Rousey herself but the politics of WWE. I begin to believe that what the WWE Universe really wants is not so much the media exposure, not so much an extreme storyline, but as an enhancement of those who have been there for the longest time, with a downsizing of the athletes who come from UFC.
I hope you enjoyed this presentation of mine, I thank all those who answered. If you liked it, I can continue to do this kind of thing, talking about various themes, always in double language English / Italian. At next!

50 Wrestling Questions: Why Not
Remember this? It’s been a while. Let’s do this again. Let’s twist again like we did last summer. Or the summer of 2017 in this case.
1. What got you into wrestling?
People ask me this all the time, and I don’t really have a good answer. I’ve liked it on and off since I was very young, and who knows why you like the stuff you like when you’re a little kid? 
2. What is your favorite wrestling promotion?
Of all time: ECW, even though I would probably think of it very differently if it were happening today. Currently: Beyond Wrestling. 
3. Favorite male wrestler of all time?
Gorgeous George, but if we’re talking about people who were alive when I was alive, Dusty Rhodes. I want to say Bruiser Brody, but in my heart I would know I was just saying that to look cool. 
4. Favorite female wrestler of all time?
Gail Kim. For the longest time, she was the only woman in a major global wrestling company who got over based on her wrestling ability. She was doing stuff in TNA that was years ahead of its time, and could adapt her style to get great matches with a variety of opponents with very different backgrounds. And she can still go, as she showed in the match against Tessa Blanchard the other night. I know it would be cooler to say Bull Nakano or Chigusa Nagayo or something, but I don’t know enough of their stuff to make that claim credible. I am who I am, a person who goes to the mall to buy shoes. 
5. Favorite current male wrestler?
Nick Gage
6. Favorite current female wrestler?
Momo Watanabe 
7. Favorite theme song?
Joey Janela’s music captures his vibe perfectly, and sounds great being blasted out of PA speakers inside a small bar or VFW hall. Of all time, probably, I don’t know, Honky Tonk Man? In an ironic way that slowly becomes sincere?
8. Least favorite theme song?
Ricochet’s WWE theme music is pretty dreadful. 
9. Favorite gimmick?
Currently: Orange Cassidy. All time: Road Warriors maybe? They were almost 100 percent gimmick, and they were the biggest tag team in the world at a great time for tag team wrestling. 
10. Least favorite gimmick?
All the racist and gay-hating gimmicks that have been used throughout the years are more or less equally horrible. If we’re talking about a terrible gimmick that was non-malignant, I’d say it was taking giant indestructible ass-kicker Mike Awesome and making him “That 70s Guy.” 
11. Best entrance (either their usual entrance or a special one, like a Wrestlemania entrance)?
Gorgeous George had the best entrance of all time, and it’s been copied ever since (Ric Flair’s entrance is basically Gorgeous George’s, scored with a different piece of classical music). The Sandman also had a great entrance. He was kind of all-entrance, now that I think of it. I also love those old shows in Japan where Brody would come out to “Immigrant Song” running through the crowd, swinging a fucking chain over his head like a lunatic. An entrance that makes you fear for your life: mission accomplished. 
12. Best Undertaker Wrestlemania match?
I am not the right person to ask for Undertaker superlatives, but the Lesnar match had a legitimately shocking conclusion that I still appreciate 
13. Most overrated?
I’m tempted to incur the wrath of the online by making a contrarian hot take selection like Ken Omega, but in reality it’s probably the Undertaker. 
14. Most underrated?
There are a million choices from before the 1980s, the Before Time of contemporary pro wrestling. Edouard Carpentier, say; he was having matches in 1970 that would not look out of place in 2019. Since the 1980s, I’d say Jerry Lynn is a very strong contender for most underrated. The popular choice would be Sid or Lex Luger, but I think they’re pretty much rated exactly as they should be. 
15. Have you ever been to an event? If so, which one?
I certainly have been to many pro wrestling events. I go to one or two a month. Like a lot of things, wrestling is pretty much always fun in person. It helps that the Northeast has a ton of good companies within easy driving distance. My favorite show of all time might be Americanrana 2016. 
16. Who has the best merch?
We’re in a weird period where people on Instagram are making better shirt designs (in insanely limited editions) than the vast majority of wrestlers or wrestling companies. I will say that Kris Wolf has yet to make an ugly or boring piece of merchandise, which is a huge complication in this day and age. 
17. Do you own any merch?
Nope! Wait, I mean, “yes, entirely too much.” Shirts, 8 x 10s, DVDs, magazines, random pieces like fancy enamel badges and a stack of Okada bucks. The one thing I’ve never gotten into is action figures, and that’s probably good for the ol’ bank balance. 
18. Best nickname?
"The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes is an all-time classic. 
19. Worst nickname?
"The Game” is a dumb nickname. “The Cerebral Assassin” is also a dumb nickname. Are assassins supposed to be stupid? I bet they’re typically very smart, although of low moral character. “Triple H” is his only good nickname, and even that sounds like the nickname of a guy who owns a car dealership out by the highway.
20. Best mic skills?
Nobody was ever better than Bobby Heenan, who had incredible range and versatility. He could do comedy and he could do menace. He could do calm and he could do spitting rage. He had an uncanny sense of timing and was quicker on his feet than almost anyone. No one really comes close at matching his astonishing depth, but Dusty Rhodes was an all-time great promo. He really made you care about wrestling matches, which is not an easy thing to do.
21. Most annoying?
I mean, it has to be Vince McMahon. 
22. Most attractive male?
Is Tanahashi too obvious a choice? Best hair in wrestling. It’s incredible and luxurious, like an untamed mountain stream. Andrade “Cien” Almas or whatever they’ve shortened his name to (”And”) is a handsome man. Killer Kross: very handsome. We live in a golden age of attractive wrestlers. Just look back at the gassed-up Zubaz mastodons of the 1980s, or the territories-era guys who all looked like they were 48 years old and had pot bellies. You almost have to try to find unattractive wrestlers. Nick Gage, for instance. But I’m sure even he has his swooning admirers. 
23. Most attractive female?
Again, what a time for attractive wrestlers. It may be shallow, but wrestling is a business that’s at least partially cosmetic. Attractive people sell tickets. I would, and have, bought a ticket to see Hana Kimura. 
24. Favorite faction?
Of all time? Probably the Barry Windham-era Four Horsemen. More recently, Team Pazuzu. 
25. Worst faction?
BULLET CLUB. No, it’s not the Bullet Club, as exhausted as they’ve become. It’s probably the nWo after early 1998 or so, when they had like 60 members and dragged down every storyline. 
26. Best ring gear?
Su Yung and Pentagon Jr. 
27. Who do you think would be the nicest in real life?
I bet Jerry Lynn is a good guy to know. People in wrestling universally praise Little Guido, which is very rare. The Young Bucks seem like they might be decent dudes. Willow Nightingale told a story on a podcast about Nick Gage excitedly playing with Solo Darling’s dog backstage, so you never know. 
28. Who would be the rudest in real life?
On the indie level, it’s probably someone who doesn’t work very much. Above the indie level, I bet some of those British guys are secretly horrible, like Jimmy Havoc. 
29. Favorite heel?
Currently it’s a tie between MJF and Alisha Edwards, two of the only people who can regularly get indie crowds to boo them. Of all time, heel Flair was hard to beat. 
30. Most hardcore?
It’s definitely either a guy in Japan or a guy in Mexico, and he’s definitely been burned by explosive charges multiple times. Onita? It’s probably Onita. Or Jun Kasai? I think Onita has probably been exploded more times than Jun Kasai. 
31. A wrestler you could beat?
At wrestling? Not a single one of them. Nicholas, the small boy who won the WWE tag team championship with Braun Strowman, would wipe the floor with me. Even the most callow bodybuilder-turned-wrestler would not break a sweat beating me senseless. But writing talking points for senior administration officials in preparation for legislative testimony? Now you’re on my turf. Not so tough now, huh, Nicholas? 
32. Best story line?
Freebirds vs. Von Erichs or Stone Cold vs. Vince. My heart says the former, my head says the latter. 
33. Biggest missed opportunity for a story line?
The WWE blowing the invasion angle after purchasing WCW is the obvious one. More recently, they blew it by not turning Reigns heel. 
34. Worst story line?
Ha, so many of them. Impossible to choose just one. At least most of the dumb embarrassing Russo ones in WCW and TNA were basically harmless, like the time Samoa Joe got kidnapped by ninjas. The Chuck and Billy wedding thing was far worse. A low point even by Vince’s impressively cretinous standards.
35. Which wrestler should turn heel?
I’d like to see a Jordynne Grace heel run in Impact. Heel Finn Balor would also be good. 
36. Which wrestler should turn face?
Samoa Joe has a good fiery babyface, “I’m tired of doing your dirty work, McMahon!” run in him. 
37. Who would be the worst to room with?
Can you imagine sharing a living space with Enzo Amore? Or the thicket of twee Disney merchandise you’d have to negotiate every day if you lived with Johnny Gargano?
38. Who would be the best to room with?
I bet Eddie Edwards would be a surprisingly thoughtful roommate, like he’d always do the dishes “because I love doing them!,” that kind of thing. I have nothing to base this suspicion on, he just seems like my old roommate, Shane, who was like that. 
39. Who would be your best friend if you were a wrestler?
I’d like to say Jushin Thunder Liger, and posit that we would go on exciting adventures, but the answer is probably something like “Comp Time” Terry Dandridge, who wrestles monthly for 2Xtreme All-Pro Wrestling Alliance out of Euphoria, Kansas and has a 9 to 5 as a hardware store manager. 
40. What would your job be in a wrestling promotion?
I’d normally make a self-effacing joke here, but I do social media training at my real job, and so many wrestlers are badly in need of help in this area. 
41. Favorite wrestling podcast/Youtube channel?
I like AIW’s “The Card is Going to Change” podcast a lot, and there’s one by the owners of RevPro that’s pretty good. It’s hard to find a well-produced wrestling podcast that talks about independent wrestling. My favorite wrestling YouTube channel is OSW Review. 
42. Favorite finisher?
BURNING HAMMER
43. Least favorite finisher?
The Bayley-to-belly suplex. HOW IS THIS A FINISHING MOVE
44. Favorite match?
Kerry Von Erich vs. Jerry Lawler at Superclash III. It was a bloody, weird, engrossing spectacle, and it was the symbolic end of the territories era. 
45. Favorite PPV?
Royal Rumble is the last PPV my casual fan friends reliably want to see, and with good reason: it’s engrossing.
46. Guilty pleasure wrestler?
Big Banter Baron Corbin, but I feel no guilt here. He rules. 
47. Favorite submission?
THE KATA HA JIME, otherwise known as the Tazmission.
48. Most entertaining to watch?
All time? Randy Savage. Currently? Io Shirai. 
49. Best spot?
Anyone spitting mist into the unsuspecting eyes of their foes
50. Who do you most respect?
I respect you, booker man.

My WWE SuperShowdown 2018 Review
The Card:
Universal Title Match - Seth Rollins vs Baron Corbin
I honest don’t care about either one. Seth is overrated and Baron is cool character, but a boring guy irl. I was waiting for Brock to come the whole time that they FLUFFED the cash in?! No thank you. Next!
4/10
Intercontinental Title Match - Finn Balor vs Andrade
Again, I DON’T CARE ABOUT THESE TWO!!! The demon is cool, but Finn Balor (Fergal Devitt) isn’t! Also he was very disrespectful to the gracious country of Agraba before this wondrous event. This was a boring match with two overrated wrestlers. What have they even done to deserve to be here? Andrade needs to learn English and stop doing the stupid KNEES thing. So stupid. I don’t even know what Andrade’s skillset is because he shows no talent. This match is something the we could have seen on SmackDown Live any other night. No, I say! No!
3/10
Roman Reigns vs Shane McMahon (& Drew McIntyre)
I couldn’t wait for Roman’s ass to be handed to him. I didn’t like the energy they let Reigns have, but in the end Drew did what we all were wanting; he kicked Roman with the Claymore while the referee was distracted. Well done.
8/10
Lars Sullivan vs Lucha House Party
Lars should have squashed these clowns. The match itself was confusing. I don’t understand what happened, but at least Lars stayed looking strong and got the victory. Go, Lars, go!
8/10
Randy Orton vs Triple H
This was a battle between two living legends in their near primes. Neither seemed to have lost a step. The Viper vs the Cerebral Assassin was my personal favorite match tonight. Nothing could top this match for me. No words needed. More of this, please!
10/10
Bobby Lashley vs Braun Strowman
This was a sensational match. An animal in Bobby Lashley with a great physique and the future face of WWE in Braun Strowman. Great job by both guys. Another gem from this event.
9/10
WWE Title Match - Kofi vs Dolph Ziggler
When life hands Dolph Ziggler lemons, he makes lemonade. He also looked great. Dolph has carried this feud. He did great work tonight throughout the match. Kofi did very little in the wrestling department, as usual. Xavier Woods was Kofi’s crony and they cheated to have Dolph lose. Stupid and unoriginal, but predictable. Dolph continues saving this feud as he put on an expertly executed promo to get a rematch. Ziggler is such a great HEEL. Hopefully they will do his great work justice and Dolph wins the title from this clown Kofi and his posse. 
8/10
Battle Royal
This was an even bigger battle royale, if you can believe that. It was very cool that a local guy won. The crowd was electric the entire event, but when he won the surge turned into a sonic boom. Very cool. I cannot wait to see him every week from now on.
7/10
Main Event - Goldberg vs The Undertaker
The legend Undertaker fought this old guy from WCW. The old guy couldn’t even pick up ‘Taker. So the Undertaker carried this match and put the bleeding old man down. Great to see the legend Undertaker in the ring again. I hope he shows up at SummerSlam and WreslteMania. I can’t get enough of watching his matches. Triple H vs Undertaker again anyone? Just more Undertaker matches!
9/10
Final thoughts: 
As per usual with WWE, the production was immaculate, the matches were well thought out, and the crowd was electric. For an event that had 0 women wrestling (I think Saudi has a law that prevents women from physically or figuratively touching other women under any circumstances), this was near perfect. I hope that piss-ant company took notes because this is how you do an event. WWE Super Showdown 2019 felt like those epic WrestleManias and had moments no wrestling fan will ever forget. I loved the whole experience! I can’t wait for another two!
9/10 overall

UNPOPULAR OPINIONS
MY UNPOPULAR OPINIONS
(Its not for the faint hearted)
1: the Dolan twins aren’t hot
- they look like Italian mobsters and their chin’s is not attractive
2: Shane’s doco was click bait and didn’t resolve anything
- Jake Paul manipulated Shane and the audience, he’s a mastermind that uses kids to fuel his greed. He knows what he’s doing and he knows how to sell his merchandise by manipulation. And ill not side with
him or anything he does.
- As for Shane, he was given the choice to go hard on Jake and he didn’t. HE SAID in his trailer that we will he harsh and expose Jake. BITCH WHERE
3: Emma chamberlain tries to hard, and is a stuck up scammer
- pretty self explanatory
4: Billie Eyelash also tries too hard
5: X doesn’t deserve the support and his fans
- Confirmed abuser, X doesn’t deserve his fans. HE stabbed 8 people and threatened to kill his pregnant girl friend. He’s music is mediocre and doesn’t deserve the praise it gets, the trash lyrics doesn’t express what depression is, and he also promotes hate and violence in his music. I can get it from an artist standpoint but people like Tyler the Creator explains how keeps a persona and doesn’t try promote violent ways in real life. Countless times X has inciting a riot at his concerts. Hate me all you want but just because he’s dead doesn’t mean we have to forget what his done
6: avocados are overrated
7: No one cares about your stupid Spotify playlists
- just because sticky fingers, tame impala and Brockhampton in your playlists it doesn’t mean your a music god. And dont try to use your playlists as a excuse to climb the social hierarchy
8: just because you listen to rex Orange County your not woke in music culture
9: artist have to fake their way to the top and I hate it
- I haven’t seen a genuine piece of art since I saw ‘lady Lilith’ and ill never see a artwork as good as that due to the over saturation if bad artwork
10: being talented doesn’t automatically make you a good artist
11: I hate when people act surprise when there is a gay person/couple in a movie or show
- like get over yourselves, gay culture can be exposed to your kids and you should shut your mouth
12: guys doing their nails and having basic hygiene isn’t gay
- some of y’all are crusty fix yourselves, and stop being insurce about your masculinity
13: Cardi B is a loud bitch that is a bad influence on people and promotes self harm, and is transphobic/homophobic
14: “cancelled” community can be toxic sometimes
15: I hate when people think I’m fucking crazy when I voice my opinions
- like they might be offensive but you can just unfollow me or ignore me like damn
16: I dont care about your boyfriend
17: Brockhampton is still slept on
18: Parties are overrated (some of them)
- I hate parties now because people are just drunk assholes and lightweights
- and acting drunk isn’t cool, you just look like a stupid motherfucker and making a fool of yourself
19: fashion sucks nowadays and trends become over saturated so quickly, and dont claim yourself as a fashion icon if you own a sheep skin jacket or what ever they are

January Talking Me Day 13
@shes-a-voodoo-child asked for salty wrestling opinions, which I gotta say... despite being late.... I’VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THESE.
I hate that Becky Lynch calling herself “The Man” is the pinnacle of her badassery.  Yes, I know what the reference is.  I’ve probably watched wrestling since most of Tumblr has been alive.  It’s shitty.  Ronda is right about that and my STUPID EXBOYFRIEND is not.
for that matter, y’all are too hard on like... a lot of the ladies.  Ronda has been completely competent and natural in the ring since her debut.  She might be an asshole, but she’s not untalented.
Women I’ve also seen wrestling tumblr be too hard on: 
Charlotte Flair (what the fuck is there not to like about Charlotte, you cretins?)
Nia Jax (fight me, she means the world to me as a big thick Amazon)
For an older take: Lita is and always has been overrated.  Botchy McSpots might as well have been her name.  She got the push Molly Holly deserved.  But she showed her thong and had period-specific personal style so them’s the breaks.
Sting has always fucking sucked
So has Randy Orton
Triple H is a bloated ass who could only ever be carried to a good match.  How much of Mick Foley’s brain is damaged to get Hunter over?  He’s as disgusting as the trashbag family he married into.  I’m still not over Stephanie daring to put Chyna’s name on her lips at the Royal Rumble last year.
Speaking of the trashbag family, man do I hate them all.  Stephanie doesn’t give a fuck about women’s empowerment, Vince is just gross, Shane aged like milk (though it IS hilarious how he got conned into managing his mother’s money-pit doomed senatorial campaigns), and Linda is in the Trump Administration.  They’re all monsters.  They should be broke from myriad wrongful death suits, not thriving.  But rich people get away with their behavior and now Hunter is hailed as a genius for making the product suck slightly less.  MERICA!!
The amount of sexual assault and sexual harassment that goes on/has gone in this organization would probably make Hollywood look like a decent place to work.  I do think it’s probably better now than it used to be, but by how much? idk
AJ Styles is a doll despite his cultural ignorance.  He’s a sweet person.  And probably the only dude in the business faithful to his wife.
Shinsuke and Asuka are getting tepid pushes because they’re Japanese and this is still a fundamentally racist organization.  Look at how nothing their Royal Rumble wins amounts to last year?  Asuka is definitely gonna drop the title to “The Man” and I’m going to find it annoying.  
Cien Almas has been criminally underused since being called up from NXT, same goes for Bayley
idk man, I’ll stop.  there’s more I hate about wrestling than I like these days.  I hope AEW changes the game.  I hope they can walk the walk with equal pay.  I don’t judge anyone for unethical consumption but on a personal level, I refuse to put any money toward a WWE product.  My roommate has the network so I’m kind of like a wrestling fan “freegan” these days and even then I feel guilty about it.  I quit officially over a decade ago but I was a fan since like 1985 (when I was six) and had some of my most personal and amazing fan experiences as a wrestling fan, but there’s a toll it takes on the soul after a while, for me.  No judgment to people who like it.  God knows I’ll never be able to give up Amazon, which I know is also evil.

This shit is real horny (ayoooo); don’t read at work.
*
“Do they know how far you’ve fallen?” Shane asks, leaning in to nose behind Ryan’s ear. “Do they know who you always come to see?”
Ryan’s on his knees, face pressed into the sheets of Shane’s bed, and he’s breathing rhythmically in time to every thrust. Shane thinks the only thing keeping Ryan’s hips in the air is the tight grip he has on them.
“Shane,” Ryan pants, his hands grappling at the nearest pillow, as though he needs something to cling to.
“Does Heaven know its best angel is fraternizing with the enemy?”
Ryan’s wings are curled up close to his back, but they twitch at the sound of Shane’s voice and Shane’s hoping Ryan will stretch them out for him if he tries hard enough.
“You are, too,” Ryan points out, voice muffled in the sheets.
Shane slows his thrusts and then pulls back, keeping only the tip of his cock inside Ryan to see how it stretches him. Ryan makes a hollow noise, like Shane’s ruining his life — which Shane is, but they don't need to talk about it.
“That’s what demons do, Ryan,” he replies coolly. “They gave me a trophy for taking your virginity.”
It was eons ago now, back when Ryan was new to Earth and still a fresh-faced angel who naively thought he could convince Shane that being bad was overrated. Seducing Ryan had been one of his crowning achievements, both for demonkind, but also for himself. He hadn’t had to feed from any human souls for almost a whole month after, the taste of Ryan’s inevitable acquiescence lingering in his body.
Ryan had been so sweet that first time, a true blushing virgin, and Shane had fucked him the way he’d deserved. He’d been so pliant and easy, and absolutely delighted by everything Shane had given him. And ever since then, he’s been coming back to Shane for more and Shane can never say no.
“No they didn’t,” Ryan grunts and Shane doesn’t bother arguing that it’s actually one of the few true things he’s told Ryan. He has the trophy in the back of his bathroom cabinet.
Shane tightens his hold on Ryan’s hip and returns to fucking him, punching the breath straight out of Ryan in a loud exhale.
“I hate you,” Ryan hisses, reaching a hand back to grab at Shane’s hair. His fingers catch on one of Shane’s horns and Shane bites back a moan.
“Angels aren’t meant to lie,” Shane tells him and Ryan turns his head enough to glance at him from the corners of his eyes.
“It’s not a lie.”
Shane slides his other hand up into the soft feathers of Ryan’s wings, gripping the elbow of one and squeezing just enough to make it unfurl.
“I think it is. Tell me how much you want this,” Shane says, setting his teeth against Ryan’s shoulder and swiping at his sweat-damp skin with his tongue. He tastes like salt and goodwill and it burns at his mouth.
Shane knows from the silence alone that Ryan’s trying his best to hold out. He’s probably biting back a thousand things he doesn’t want Shane to know, that Shane doesn’t deserve to know.
“You keep coming back to me,” Shane says after sucking a dark red mark onto Ryan’s skin. “If I didn't know better, I'd think you were in love.”
Ryan lets out a strangled moan and Shane tries his best not to break rhythm, because it sounds more like a noise of half-hearted denial than one of protest. Ryan hides his face in the crook of his arm and his other hand disappears out of sight, probably so he can touch himself.
Shane files it away. As much as he enjoys teasing Ryan, he can't bring himself to point out the obvious and it somehow seems forbidden.
“Tell me you want this,” Shane murmurs instead, speeding up his thrusts and continuing to tug at Ryan's wing. He smooths down the feathers as Ryan finally stretches them both out, giving Shane what he always wants.
“I want this,” Ryan says and Shane nudges Ryan's thighs apart a little further, letting him press in deeper. He's so hot and tight, and Shane thinks he could lose himself like this, thinks he probably has. “I want this so much, Shane.”
Shane knows Ryan's close. Under his palm, he can feel the vibrations of Ryan's wing, like Shane's the only thing keeping Ryan tethered to the ground, like if Shane lets go, Ryan will just fly away.
“Do you want to know my secret?” Shane asks and Ryan shakes his head.
“No,” he lies again, and he's lucky Shane can see straight through him. Shane presses a kiss to the back of his neck.
“I want this too.”
Ryan shakes apart beneath him, his voice loud as he cries out, and for just a fraction of a second, Shane gets the faint view of his halo. It's tilted slightly to one side like the force of Shane's thrusts has knocked it loose.
“That's it,” Shane murmurs, gently carding his fingers through the feathers of Ryan's wings. “Just like that.”
Ryan's squeezing so tightly around him, Shane can barely think, but he keeps fucking him through his orgasm until he's arching away, making soft noises from overstimulation.
“Shane, Shane,” he pleads and Shane pauses, halfway buried inside him.
“Roll over,” Shane tells him, pulling the rest of the way out and shifting back to give Ryan space.
Ryan tucks his wings away as he flops onto the side of the bed not streaked with his come and he reaches up for Shane. Shane thinks briefly about pushing back inside him and finishing that way, but then Ryan gets a hand on him. Shane hums quietly and pushes into the tight circle of Ryan's fingers.
Ryan has a deep flush across his face and Shane leans down to drag his lips along his cheek, feeling the heat of his skin. It's borderline tender and Ryan gets his other hand on the back of Shane's head. He's guides Shane's mouth to his own and Shane lets him lick messily between his lips like he's the demon in this situation.
Ryan's grip is perfect as he strokes Shane, and Shane can't imagine anyone else giving him this. He pushes a moan into Ryan's mouth because he can't say aloud what he's feeling and what he wants.
He shoves down, once, twice, and then comes, making a mess of Ryan's hand and stomach. Ryan strokes him through it, his grip loosening before Shane can even tell him he's had enough. When Ryan finally lets him go, he moves his hand to Shane's hip and rubs gently.
Shane pulls his mouth away, but nudges their noses together and Ryan lets out a soft noise.
“Shane,” he murmurs, his fingers finding one of Shane's horns again. It makes his body tingle and he thinks about saying something, but Ryan already knows how sensitive they are. It's done purposefully.
“I'm not going anywhere,” Shane tells him, which he thinks is the right thing to say, but it's another truth and he's not sure Ryan believes him again.
“Okay,” Ryan says carefully, but there's hope in his voice as he draws Shane back to his mouth, and Shane finds it's easier to say what he means through kisses anyway.
