#and I hate celeb worship in the first place

[fraulein-nietshe]

This is a chappell roan hate blog now.

I’m diagnosing her as spiritually fat.

[randomsebs]

yeah it’s definitely strange to see the cult-like behavior towards who he “dates.” suddenly posting her, adding her to their bio, complimenting her looks and projects, defending her as if she’s now a member of their family. these women do not know you! even seb would find it a bit offputting.

it’s extreme to constantly parasocially insist “he’s so happy” “she’s amazing” “they’re going to get married” when plenty of people (in real relationships) can choose the wrong person and present themselves smiling to the world, while not actually thriving — aka like half the couples on social media and the serial dater friends we all worry about.

what i find particularly annoying is using any hate against her as ammunition against the belief of PR existing. it’s really strange how they refuse to acknowledge that every celeb does PR, and that we’re only seeing what he wants us to see. in the year 2024 you’d think they’d open their eyes to how everything isn’t fairytales and honesty. he’s an actor who acts even when the camera isn’t rolling, are we so shocked? they don’t want to believe that he would ever need that, but only a decade ago he almost went bankrupt and his career has survived two recessions. he barely got his recent low budget movies made! he’ll do almost whatever it takes to stay in this industry, they underestimate that. tbh we’re on the better side of it here bc we can actually appreciate that he made this sacrifice in the first place. to ignore how he isn’t himself around her or when he looks sad is just irresponsible as a fan, if you treated him as a human you’d see the reality and have spare some sympathy instead of blind applause.

I know. People assume I just don’t like her because she’s with Sebastian? I am a big fan of sebs do not get me wrong, but I have also done MY research.

People just ignore the things she’s done for NO reason. How come they didn’t ignore ale? Didn’t ignore Ellie? And not to mention they hated Margo for NO reason too. They hated his good exes, they hated his bad exes. I do not support ale or Ellie because of the things they’ve done too, don’t get me wrong, but to ignore Annabelle’s problematic issues it’s disgusting and wrong. Not to mention - sending me death threats, doxxing threats (only threats, no actual leaks but I’m still weary), body shaming me, insulting me, calling me “ugly” when you don’t even know what I look like, etc… all because I do not like her?

They also claim: “You’re just mad he won’t fuck you”. NO SHIT HE WONT?! Im in a HEALTHY, HAPPY relationship, I have my OWN life behind my comfort celebrity? Yeah, hear that? He’s my COMFORT celebrity. I like him for being himself.

When he’s with Annabelle, he isn’t. People post “happy” pictures of them to spite others with a different opinion than they have. 1. In Rome it was a very clear pap walk, when she found out he was spotted she had to release more photos of them in Rome just so people wouldn’t forget about her. When Seb is spotted in LA, it’s not because he “lives” there for her (I’m sure he has a place in LA and NYC for work and stuff) but to move there for her? I don’t think so. They’re not close enough to even live with each other, which is very clear. When he is seen with her dogs, it’s baiting. Anytime they’re “accidentally papped” is not accidental, it’s so she can get recognition from HIM and his fan base.

This worshipping shit needs to stop, honestly. If another celebrity did this (stalking, lying about what she supports for a good view, posting perverted stuff in the past, posting random plus-sized people and making fun of them in the caption, and making fun of a plus-sized man of a different color), they’d get bashed (as they should), or if any of his exes did this, the whole fandom would raid their comments. Why are we being hypocritical here? You’d all find any dirt on any of his exes except NOW this “girlfriend” is “humble”… no she isn’t. If she was humble she wouldn’t have to try so hard to get recognized from her own boyfriend’s fame instead. If she was humble, don’t you think she wouldn’t waste all her money on expensive designer, lots of fillers, tons of surgeries, Botox, etc?? I’m not saying she can’t use her money like that, but to be called humble when she literally baits her co-worker/PR boyfriend whenever she gets the chance? I mean she also stalks her “boyfriend”’s fans just to make sure she’s also receiving attention. Isn’t that creepy? No. Everyone takes it as: “Annabelle supports us, she knows we exist!” Yeah, she knows you’re buying into the PR so much, she knows that you’re all connecting her to every little movement or outfit Seb wears, she KNOWS she’s getting attention from his fandom. It’s way too out of hand.

Wonder why Seb is different? All the hate and Annabelle. Annabelle isn’t the type of person I’d hang around, speaking that I’m friends with someone like her in the first place, it’s very toxic and it’s the polar opposite from Seb. Haven’t you ever noticed that she changes her entire personality with every single relationship she gets into?? What’s next? It’s saddening. She looked more in love with Chris pine then Seb, but she was well aware that she wasn’t receiving a good amount of attention from Pine’s fans, she knew about Seb way before they even gotten together. She followed him before they began this contract too, when they “started dating” she literally unfollowed him. She follows some of his fan accounts, stalks them, what not, just so she can also be making sure she’s the center of attention as always. She knew if Seb got bigger than how he was when she aimed to him, that she’d be receiving the best amount of attention.

I’m not being “biased” because I like Seb? It’s just because I do not like her, that’s my opinion and it’s because I do not support what she does in general.

It’s clear they have no chemistry whatsoever, but fans ignore it. I honestly believe someone HAS to be hired at this point, there’s no way that they’ll all of a sudden switch up like this when there’s plenty of proof on her own profile if you scroll down.

The thing is, she never apologized for anything she done. She repeats it again because she knows no one will care about it, she does not care what type of attention she gets. She doesn’t care if she gets hate, love, she just likes to be talked about.

This situation is concerning. It’s almost as if they want him to see this drama, like: “Seb look at what we’re doing!! Defending your PR girlfriend”. I don’t think he’ll come back to posting because of what you guys are doing, you know that right? If you observed Seb with her, you’d see crystal clear that they’re both annoyed with each other or that he just looks miserable/uncomfortable.

[twostepstyless]

I’m going to level with you. I literally don’t care

Lol. I’m not the same anon. But I feel like you. I mean, I like him with taylor. I love that he’s in a relationship. But I’m not like some weirdo harries who literally spend their days hating on taylor because they believe the relationship with harry is fake. Like, they have blogs completely dedicated to PR stunt theories and insult her all day.

Hell no! That’s so miserable and pathetic! If you are a real harrie, you care about harry and you are happy for him, his music, his career. You know what I mean? 😊

Okay devils advocate here but this is sort of the point I was getting at. I agree with what you’re saying but on the flip side I’m of the feeling that those who also live and die and worship a celebrity relationship (and this is all celebrity relationships not just the one in discussion) are as bad as those who vehemently oppose it (bad probably isn’t the right word to use here because it’s not bad, idk what I’m trying to word, I think I more mean like even though there’s difference of opinion they’re all cut from the same cloth) because why do you care in the first place? You’re not in that relationship, I understand the feeling of wanting the person you’re a fan of to be happy but I think people’s behaviour around a celeb relationship, no matter what your opinions of those relationships are, is bizarre. Once again I don’t just mean romantic relationships. But as I say that, I know there’s people I follow who love those relationships and enjoy posting about them etc, there’s also people I follow who like me, don’t care all that much and I’m sure I probably follow some people who don’t support it although I haven’t seen much of it, but as long as no one is hurting anyone, people are entitled to their opinion, and putting yourself in an echo chamber of people who only agree with and hold the same opinion (opinions such as frivolous stuff that doesn’t actually matter in the grand scheme, I don’t mean like moral opinion etc) as yourself is damaging and you’re only doing a disservice to yourself. Not that I’m saying that everyone has to go follow an absolute hater, that’s not what I mean, but I’ve seen so many insults tossed around I think there’s so much value in just basic human decency and being nice to people and everyone should learn how to just be like “okay :)” if someone shares a frivolous opinion that you don’t necessarily agree with. If someone shares an opinion that’s against basic morales then fire in there an argue to the death but on stuff that literally has no value or importance there’s no point arguing with people and why put yourself through that you know?

Title: Rumor Has It {Epilogue}

Chris Evans x Famous Reader Uriah “Riah” Tyler

Warning: Cursing, Plot, Fluff, 

Words: 2.2k

Summary: You and Chris have been married for four years after a whirlwind romance. You are both happy and trying to navigate marriage in the public eye while balancing your successful careers. In the entertainment industry, not everything is as it seems, the flash of a camera lens impairs vision. As scandal and flashing lights put a strain on your once fairytale marriage is it possible your Hollywood marriage can stand the test of the rumor mill?

**Inspired by a video seen of Chris and his co-star Ana De Armas on their press tour for Knives Out at TIFF where she kept touching his chest and face standing about five inches apart.

NOTE: DO NOT COME FOR ME. THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION.

**Loosely Edited/Proofread**

Thank you guys for reading!!!! If you enjoyed this please LIKE, COMMENT, REBLOG. 😊❤️❤️

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If the public ripped Chris a new asshole when the odds seemed ever not in his favor, they massacred Ana once the facts were revealed. When it came out just how low Ana had gone in her efforts to get your husband, the world turned into a colder place. The tabloids ran endless pieces on what a horrible person she was. They were relentless when it came to nitpicking not just her behavior and actions, but they even went in on her acting. You could have said you felt bad for her, but you didn’t. Not one bit.

 The support that came out for you and Chris was heartwarming. Everyone seemed to want to wrap the two of you in a cocoon of support and love. You received well-wishes from fans and supporters, and even celebs sent floral arrangements, all expressing their support for you. The narrative that was spun was the diabolical plot of Ana and jilted ex Christiano who concocted a plot that was to end with Ana getting Chris and Christiano kidnapping you. Most of the details were released to the press, though you and Chris had both tried to keep as much of it under wraps as possible. Neither one of you wanted to continue dealing with it. You just wanted to move forward and focus on better things—happier things.

 Because Christiano had broken into your home and attempted to cause harm to its residents, Chris’s actions were seen as self-defense, and Chrisnao’s death ruled an accidental result of self-defense. Though the White family were distraught once they were faced with the severity of Christiano’s actions and continued plans, they didn’t have the heart to put you through any further trauma. You’d suspected it was Christina’s doing, and a floral arrangement from her a few weeks after the incident proved your suspicions.

 You’d been friends with her first, and it was a friendship that survived the end of your relationship with Christiano. This was her way of letting it be known that her brother did wrong. A month after the incident, her statement shed light on Christiano’s mental health and revealed he’d been struggling for several years since the break-up. She made no apologies for his actions and didn’t try to make him seem like a victim. She was adamant about letting the full truth be seen. She did offer an apology to you, Chris, your families, and your children.

 For her part in the plot, her actions of physically trying to kill you, not knowing you pregnant at the time, was what sealed Ana’s fate. She was sentenced to jail, and it wasn’t entirely the sentence of a privileged woman. It was one of a criminal who showed no remorse for their actions. She was given nine years behind bars, and because she was living and working in the US on a visa rather than citizenship, after the completion of her sentence, she would be deported to Spain. 

Even film studios were distancing themselves from her at record speed. All the roles she had been considered for quickly changed their views and voiced wanting you to have the roles. It was sort of poetic to you. She hated you because you were black, and you didn’t deserve all you had, including your career and husband. In the end, she was the absolute furthest from your husband, and now everything that was hers would be yours.

 You and Chris were on a flight to Massachusetts two days after the incident. Neither of you were suspects; there was no reason for you to remain in LA, so you quietly packed up what you wanted and made arrangements to pack up the house for the foreseeable future, then went where both of you felt like you belonged. You left any details about your career plans to your manager to close. Everyone seemed to understand the want you had to step back from work and Hollywood, especially when the news was out that you were going to be parents.

 That was the only thing Chris seemed to care about. He was on a mission to keep you comfortable, happy, and taken care of. From the minute he carried you over the threshold of the home he’d built for you, it felt like a fresh start, a new beginning meant just for the five of you.

 He was there beside you every morning, patting your back as you vomited because of your morning sickness until you were four and a half months along. He was there for every single appointment. He read every book you did to prepare for the remainder of your pregnancy and life with twins. He was there preparing you lunch every afternoon, there massaging your feet and back at the end of every night. He was there to lather on the cocoa and shea butter to your growing belly. He was there to compliment every stretch mark you received because of your quickly stretching skin. He was there to kiss each of them while telling you how much he loved each and every tiger stripe, as he called them. He was even there for you when none of your clothes fit you, and he offered you all his cable-knit sweaters, hoodies, sweatpants, and button-downs.

 When your belly became so big you couldn’t see your feet; he put your shoes on for you. When you couldn’t get up without looking like a beached whale, Chris was there to carry you wherever you wanted to go. There rarely went an hour that went by where he didn’t strip you to worship your body as if you were his scripture, and he worshiped you and you alone. Not a day passed where you didn’t feel loved, desired, and protected.

 Through it all, you decided that therapy was beneficial and a powerful enough tool to bring you back together that you wanted to continue. Dr. Danquah was thrilled having the two of you as clients again and, because of your progress, saw no need for you to see her more than twice a month to keep the lines of communication and the roots of love and passion ever strong. The love you felt for Chris and the connection you felt to each other only deepened throughout your pregnancy.

 Just when you thought you couldn’t love him anymore, he did something to prove you wrong. Every day you found something more to love. If it wasn’t his fun-loving nature that was on display every time he played with Dodger, it was his outdoorsy adventurism with the way he bounded from the bed once the sun rose to drag you on another of his nature walks so he could photograph the trees or the hills. If it wasn’t his romantic side with how he prepared candlelit baths every night that posed as a prequel to dinner by candlelight and the most passionate session of lovemaking, it was his undercover, not so undercover freak antics with him wanting to christen every single room in the house and a few spots outdoors with your lovemaking. At nights when he thought you were sleeping, you heard him talking to the babies as he caressed your stomach. That was what you loved most. His sheer love, devotion, and adoration for his children and the strong protector that resided in him. he was the only one for you.

 “Push Riah.”

 “Don’t fucking tell me to push. You push!”

 Chris snorted, and you wanted to kill him. His hands rubbed your belly before he kissed your jaw from his position behind you in the tub in your bathroom.

 “I can push with you, but you have the babies in you. You have to show them the way.”

 You groaned, and it echoed in the hallowed bathroom.

 “You can do this, Uriah,” Lisa encouraged, giving your shoulder a firm squeeze.

 You looked across to your mother, who nodded, hoping to steel your nerve. Chris kissed your ear.

“Come on, dragonfly. You got this. Bring our babies into the world so we can spoil them.”

 And you can change all the poop diapers?”

 Chris snorted again. “I don’t recall making any such promise.”

 You squeezed his hand with everything you had. He groaned and hissed from the pain.

 “Ah, ah, wow. Okay, I see my error. Yes, all poop diapers that you don’t want.” You released his hand, letting him relax somewhat.

 “Use that, baby. I know it’s hard. I know it hurts, and I’m sorry.”

 “This is your fault,” you pointedly accused.

 “Yes. My fault. I take full blame. I’m sorry.”

 “You owe me so big for this, Evans.”

 He nodded, agreeing with you. that was when the pain intensified at levels that made you regret choosing a natural birth at home.

 “Oh fuckity, fuck. So big, Evans!”

 “You’re crowning. Do you want to come over here and catch your baby, dad?”

 Chris moved from behind you and got into position between your legs. His eyes widened, clearly seeing the baby’s head. The excitement around you was palpable, and it gave you a burst of energy to get the baby out. You grabbed your knees, hunkered down, and pushed because whether you were supposed to or not. Your scream was loud, and the screams of those around you picked up. They shouted to you, encouraging you to keep going and not to stop. The look on Chris's face suddenly changed, and you saw the tears in his eyes.

 “Oh my god, Riah, I can—I can see—oh baby, I can see a face. come on, Dragonfly, one more push.”

 You screeched out and fought through the intense burning you felt, and in seconds the crying of a baby echoed in the bathroom.

 “Aah, oh my god, Riah, it’s a girl. She’s here,” Chris elated as tears rolled down his cheeks.

 You smiled widely as Chris held your daughter and cut her umbilical cord before he placed her on your chest.

 “Oh my god!”

 She was perfect, with a full head of hair that was the color of Chris’s and cheeks so plump you were tempted to pinch them. You only had a moment to place a kiss on her forehead before you felt another stab of pain that made you shout again. The second midwife took the baby from you so you could focus on pushing out her sister.

 “She’s right there, Uriah. You’re doing incredible, baby,” your mother informed.

 “I’m thinking three good pushes, Uriah.  When you feel the urge, push.

 You instantly felt the urge to push and returned to your previous position and pushed as hard as you could. This push was just as painful as the first one, but you felt this push accomplished more.

 “Good push, her head is out. One more, and she’ll be out,” your first midwife said.

 The look on everyone's face was one of anxiety and excitement. The sounds of your first daughter’s cries had died down, and the only thing that could be heard in the room was your panting, screeching, and grunting.

 “Fuuuuuck!”

 You managed to push your daughter out, and her cries filled the bathroom. Soon, it was not one baby crying but both of them.

 “You did it!”

 Lisa and your mother both kissed your cheeks and forehead, happily congratulating you and telling you how well you’d done while the midwives cleaned the babies to bring them to you. When Chris came up beside you, your mothers backed away, giving you a few moments together. Chris kissed your forehead.

 “You’re incredible. You did so good, dragonfly. I’m so proud of you.” He kissed you once, then twice, and nuzzled his nose against yours.

 “I love you so much.”

 “Did someone order two perfect babies?”

 The midwives placed your daughters in your arms.

 “This is baby A; she was born first and her sister.”

 Your tears flowed freely as so much emotion filled you. Love in it’s purest form washed over you.

 “Chris. They’re beautiful.”

 “Of course they are. They look just like you,” Chris said, kissing your temple.

 A comfortable silence fell between you as you admired your newborn daughters.

 “Any decision on names?”

 You smiled and ran your thumb across the baby’s brow in your arm.

 “Yeah. How do you feel about Nova and Rae?”

 Chris’s face lit up as his smile spread so wide that you wondered if his face would split in two.

 “I love them. Nova and Rae Evans,” he uttered. You nodded and couldn’t help but choke up, seeing the emotion on his face.

 “Chasing dragonflies,” he whispered the meanings of the names you’d discussed weeks ago before his lips met yours for a tender kiss.

 With his forehead pressed to yours, he whispered again. “Rumor has it you’re going to be an amazing mom.”

 You smiled and looked at him before pressing your lips to his for a quick kiss. “Rumor has it you’re a DILF.”

 Chris laughed so loud it startled your babies, making them stir and cry. You joined in laughing with him, unable to keep your sublime happiness under wraps any longer.

 “Rumor has it you two will have siblings in record time,” Lisa said slightly above a whisper.

 Everyone in the room laughed, not knowing how true those were most likely were. You and Chris gazed at each other with longing and love in your eyes. When Chris kissed you again, this time taking his time to do it properly, completely and heartily, you knew his mother’s words would be the truest spoken.  

                                             The End!!!!!

[chrisevansluv]

We get a pretty good idea of who CE is as a public figure but what if he (or any celebrity as I'm not hating on CE, i love the dude) turns out to be very different when you really get to know them?//

I believe the answer to this is first acknowledging that we don’t know these people. Like you’ve stated, we know their image. I think over the years you get a glimpse of the actual person, so for example I think Chris is a sweet guy not just based in his “image”. He has proven to be a genuine person. The second thing we need to acknowledge is that these celebs are human. The same way you and I have insecurities and feel emotional pain, etc., so do they. Fans especially fans of male celebs get a version of them inside their heads and turn these average guys into “Prince Charming” or close to it. In reality some of them are probably worse than a few of our exes. 😭

The only way you’d be disappointed in meeting a celeb is if you go in with unrealistic expectations that you probably wouldn’t even place on yourself. Depending on the environment you meet them in they could have their “public” mask on (think of how you may act at work or with people you’re not 100% comfortable with vs how you act with close friends and relatives.) If you randomly meet a celeb through mutual friends and a small environment where they are comfortable you’d see how human they are and reality will kick in and you’ll realize it’s the same equivalent as seeing a random person in the street go from a nobody to a somebody. Once you learn about said individual and they get a great team behind them they go from human to however the public perceives them, at the end of the day they are still that random person you walked past without even taking a second look at they now just have a shit ton of money and people to hide the negative things about them. The reason “Hollywood” is the way it is is because society turns everyday people into “Gods” in their mind due to influence, money and power. Idol worship is real and we see it everyday.

Now mind you there are genuine good hearted people who end up famous through their talents, end up changing lives and inspiring others, these are the ones you feel compelled to support and love….hi Chris! 😉💙 These are the same ones who see the madness of Hollywood and refuse to allow it to compromise their values in life but again these same individuals are still flawed human beings like the rest of us. Hope this makes sense didn’t mean to make this that long. 😊

So many things to say and so many things not to say.

Fandom: This fandom is toxic. There is no other way to put it. It’s toxic from top to bottom, left to right, diagonally. My partners and I discussed this today because we were bored. We whole heartedly believe it starts at the top and by top I mean her majesty of the written word. Of course, now that’s she’s dropped the self diagnosis of “somewhat autistic,” you really can’t say anything because then you’re a horrible person. But she uses that as an excuse for her snark and condescending attitude. Hey. Whatever lady. I don’t follow you, I don’t read your books and aside from the few things I see, you’re no better than the leads. The difference is you’ve been milking the fandom for 30 years; people are waiting for you to finish and you can’t even complete the one that was supposed to be done last year. Yet you continue to yak about this side thing or that side thing and really, I don’t need a JF origin story. We’ve gotten that enough in the 9 other flipping books. You see the pattern here tho folks?

The female lead: She has done her share of being flippant and rude to people on her SM. She becomes sweet as pecan pie on Thanksgiving when she wants to want to launch something though. She was the one who wanted to end the shipper rumors and so IFH happened but sadly when you skirt around a subject and don’t say your partner’s name or take photos of them/with them and only take photos with your male lead in what could be construed as compromising positions - yeah. People will continue to buy what you sell to them. I’ve said it time and again, they are the biggest trolls in the fandom and do more to fuel the ship, even now that she is married to another man who is not the male lead, than anyone else. That’s all I have to say about her. She doesn’t owe anyone anything, none of them do actually, but sometimes being kind goes out the window with the lot of them.

His highness: Where to begin? His “fans” come all the way over here to our little corner of tumblr to hide behind Anon Asks to spew their hate and vitriol to those of us who seem to have opinions that differ from theirs. Namely, he is not a god. He is not someone we worship. We simply come together over coffee and tea and trade stories of current events and talk about the what if’s. My opinion of him is based on his own actions. Maybe all these “fans” want to blur the timeline of events and take it as gospel from his highness that he went on his luxury vacation before the travel ban while the rest of us cancelled ours and many lost jobs and incomes. Well that’s simply untrue. When he was called out, knowing he was wrong, instead of being the sweet, humble, normal guy that everyone says he is, he doubled down, became rude, flippant, went on a blocking spree, posting articles about COVID being no worse than the flu. Did his traveling companion get serious threats. I believe so. I believe he has as well from the same kind of people that come here to our little corner of tumblr, keyboard warriors that hide behind their anonymity and spew hate and vitriol. I also believe that people have gone to Glasgow and stalked his flat, which, come on people. That’s wrong on so many levels. I lived in LA for many years. It never occurred to me to drive to Malibu, Hollywood Hills, Laurel Canyon to actually stalk the celebs. Why? What’s the point? So I can see them in their grungy clothes looking like real people? No thanks. I don’t have that kind of time or energy. Thus the 4 page rant. Hey good for you dude. It’s about time you grew a pair actually but what did it accomplish? Nothing really except people stopped talking about his covidiocy. Why? Not because he wasn’t a covidiot and quite frankly still is (remember, he’s the king of “it’s not worse than the flu”) but because he pulled the mental health card. I think he does have mental health issues. I still have high hopes that some day he will realize this himself and seek the help he needs.

Now these Anons come to our little corner of tumblr and drop their comments saying things like “I hope you get COVID and die. It’s because of you he did his 4 page rant. The people you call mommies are his real fans.” Mmmkay. I used to blindly defend him. I used to buy into his shilling and his ever so sweet exterior, I even bought into the “best fans ever” bullshit. You want to blame us who never name him, her or the one who “writes” in any blog, never hashtag him, her, or the other one or the show, never interact with any of them on other platforms of SM for his 4 page rant, his mental illness, all of his flaws and accuse us of not being fans - fine. He who is without sin, cast the first stone. Perhaps you need to sit back and take a long look at yourself in the mirror as well. Wishing a deadly disease on people, making threats, spewing hatred - isn’t this the exact same thing that was done to his highness and you were all up in arms about it, yet you come here and do it to others and think that’s okay. What makes it okay? Because you’re defending your favorite star? If this is what it means to part of this fandom, part of his fandom specifically, no thank you. When y’all can walk on water, then you can judge me. Until then, judge not lest ye be judged.

I walked away long ago but I’m still human and still have an opinion, everyone does. If he’s your favorite celeb then perhaps you should follow his advice the next time you see something you don’t agree with - suggest you ignore. He’s the one that started the entire “be kind” campaign right? Or does that only apply when it’s comvenient? If you think this is the sort of behavior that will get you on his Christmas card list or the top of his potential list of never ending “girlfriends” - well, good luck. At some point this man (again, he’s a man, he’s flawed, he makes mistakes and he’s not perfect) will fall from the pedestal his fandom have put him on and then where will you all be? He has been unapologetic for all the things he’s done. He continues to shill his swill and all his other crap when a lot people can’t make ends meet. He continues to ask for donations to HIS causes instead of asking people to take care of themselves or their own communities. I love Scotland as much as anyone but my money right now is better served in my community. I ignore most of what they all do, following his own suggestion of ignoring, but things cross my dash and I do not condone or appreciate threats. I didn’t condone it when the threats were directed at him, his traveling companion, or anyone else nor have I ever made a threat against anyone.

I wish to be treated the way I treat others and if you can’t do the same, if you can’t engage with me in a calm, adult manner, I don’t have time for you. You can have a differing opinion than me. It’s okay. We don’t have to agree but we can respectfully disagree and discuss, not argue, about who’s right and who’s wrong. It isn’t cut and dry, black and white. We can agree to disagree and still be civil and still be friends.

My Scotsman added this: When will the games end, when will the games stop? I had high hopes for his highness to lead by example and be better but he’s a follower and he followers her majesty’s lead. He follows his business partner’s lead. He sees her milk the fandom, so why can’t he and he does an excellent job of it. His fandom vote for meaningless awards until their fingers bleed, buy all of his merchandise, buy anything he sells up to and including the ship. Is there an ounce of him being a genuine person left? Yes. He gives us a glimpse now and again but make no mistake, he will take you for what you’re worth. Maybe one day he’ll change and we’ll follow him again. Until then, I’ll be watching like my partner. I’ll be around.

I guess at the end of the day my point is this, the fandom made itself toxic and I highly doubt at this point it can or will turn around. Why would it? All we can do is choose to be part of the toxicity and contribute to it and pass it forward like these precious anons have been doing or we can choose to walk away, scroll on by, try to make the world or at least our little corner of it better.

I’m still disenchanted. I hope one day my wings turn white again with the promise of a better time and place. Until then, take care my friends. I’ll be watching and I’ll be blogging.

why is it so important people to prove that David and Gillian hate (or don't) each other? Or that they were (or not) a couple? real question.

Anon, here’s my thorough input about your ask:

I’m not sure if you’ve watched the x files or not, which is important to understand some peoples very strong emotions about this topic. 😅

I reckon most people don’t care about David and Gillian’s relationship, which may include yourself if you’ve seen the show, but if not:

The x files was a groundbreaking show and had introduced a new male-female dynamic, but largely the show was built off of the backs of the two leads David and Gillian. If these two didn’t click, the show wouldn’t have worked. From day one, these two had insane chemistry. Typically, if they didn’t spend enough time together in an ep, people would complain. When the show’s quality began to decline, people tuned in for Mulder and Scully.

Based off of how magical these two were together on screen and that they never missed a beat, you’d never imagine they didn’t get along at times. But, the friction between them was notable on some occasions via interviews and certain non show clips. Sometimes they spoke highly of one another and other times, it was obvious that they weren’t in the best of places.

On the flip side, during this same time, there was also the media who were fascinated with them. Because, when David and Gillian got along IRL, they’re a sight to see. They’re way more animated and giggly around one other. On several occasions, the media has flat out asked them if they were a thing, if they ever would be, and are they interested in each other. At times, their answers and behavior is very fascinating even literal decades later.

I honestly do think that fans and the media can differentiate between acting and real life. There is something about their interactions that makes think people they were involved or some hope they are/were/will be.

You also have certain situations that doesn’t help matter, such as in 1997 David agreed to go as Gillian’s date as support to the golden globes and they looked like a couple (she was going through a divorce and this was how he supported her). A mag accidentally called him her boyfriend. Lol. Gillian has confirmed that she was interested in David and he appeared to interested until she said she wasn’t from New York. They threw a lot of sexually charged jokes at each other even tho they were said to hate one another. David asking if Gillian came became she moaned a certain way and Gillian saying she wanted to suck David’s dick. In the first x files movies, they asked to make out for fun in character knowing full well it wasn’t going to be in the movie.

So there are some sus things that happened that, even people who don’t care, start to think, “hmm...what’s going on between them?”

There’s this famous jimmy kimmel interview in 2016 where he flat out asks this because they were all giggly and flirty. And none of this includes the moments when they flirt, specifically Gillian, to have fun with fans. Gillian also gets flustered when asked questions about David and he gets defensive.

Basically, this relationship has had more interest and intrigue than (their) actual relationships. LOL.

Now, the vocal naysayers are a different case. People who don’t believe they were ever a thing usually say their piece and walk away. But, the vocal detractors are a different story. Some believe that people who are pro Gillian and David (which doesn’t necessarily mean them being involved) can’t separate reality from fiction. Tbh, they are conspiracists about the two, so there’s that. But, these people get upset at those who even dare believe that David and Gillian are friends.

If you’ve ever seen an interview between the two, you’d understand why many would want them to be friends. They’re gold together. Why would anyone want to believe that is acting???

Those who froth at the mouth about this is typically because they hate David. Why? Well, that’s their business and they’re allowed to feel that way. But, since they hate David that means Gillian hates David. Because David and Gillian didn’t get along at times, this proves how David is the worst. Gillian has always had loyal, staunch fans, some of which, have taken on her problems and/or issues with David as their own. It’s a lot of things, really. I don’t mean this in a snarky way at all, but they worship her and thinks she a goddess. (I’m not referring to most or all of her fans getting this defensive and whatnot).

Since they have these deeply intense feelings of hatred towards David and see themselves as her defender/protector, the mere idea that they could be friends is an insult to her and them.

Which means that they’ll flat out ignore interviews and quotes where Gillian denies hating David, says they’re friends, the things she likes about him, and that David wasn’t the only who misbehaved back in the day. They’ll bring up completely unrelated things as “evidence” as to why Gillian hates David. They’ll accuse him of unproven things that actually makes Gillian look bad as well. But, as long as they get to shit on David, it doesn’t matter.

They’ve gone as far as misconstruing a statement Gillian made years ago to mean, “David was like an abusive partner.”

So, pro David and Gillian people either want them to be friends/involved because we’d like to believe their dynamic based on their insane chemistry is real. And we don’t want to believe that they hate each other in real life because it doesn’t vibe with their face to face and paper interviews.

Where as anti people: 1. A fraction of them hate the idea that just because they had chemistry means something was/is going on (these people aren’t against them being friends) 2. Anti David people who adore Gillian and think of him as an abusive partner she needs to be protected from. These are the most vocal critics. Most of the anon hate I receive are literally people complaining about David and why they hate him. And the posts I’ve made don’t even say they’re together or were, many of them are about David and Gillian being friends. Lol

They assume that anyone who doesn’t hate David thinks he can do no wrong and they must rectify this mistaken belief.

And, don’t get me wrong, I think it’s adorable how much some fans love and gush over Gillian (and David, he has fans too. Lol). But, some fans take it too far and are taking on these actors (alleged) grievances as if it’s their own or that they know intimate details that they’d have no knowledge of.

In the grand scheme of things, it’s not “important.” But, when you’re invested in the actors on some level, more times than not, you’re invested in their relationships: romantic, friendships, familial, and professional.

There’s a lot of shit I don’t know, forgot, and didn’t touch on that much, but that’s the gist of it. 😂 this has been an ongoing thing since the 90s and, apparently, will never die.

One last note: if you pay attention to pop culture and celebrity relationships and rumors, the intrigue around them is insane. Many couples who are/were bigger celebrities than them don’t get this much attention. I don’t know if it’s because the question still exists as to whether or not they’re telling the truth or what, but this has been going on for over 27 years.

Celebrities pay top dollar to get the type of attention they get FOR FREE. Their are superstar singers who’ve had PR relationships that people don’t care for or have forgotten about, where as David and Gillian constantly have people curious as if the two have ever be a thing or will. Like, even when these two have been married and in relationships, interviewers STILL will bring up the possibility of them being together.

If you follow celebrity couples, you’ll know how rare and unusual this is. When celebs have questions like this, it’s because they were a huge couple (think Brad and Jen). Like, I’ll probably make another post and go in-depth about it because this post is already super long (😩), but the media usually doesn’t keep being up romance questions for two celebs who have emphatically denied being involved for literal decades and there aren’t rumors connecting them. Even the media has let go of rooting for Kate and Leo to get together, yet David and Gillian still get questions. 😅

:)

i fucking hate stan culture i hate how people on social media are either holding their faves on a pedestal and expecting them to be perfect and constantly vocal about social issues on social media (while refusing to admit that most celebs on social media are performative as fuck) or completely defensive of their faves and jumping to their defense and pulling all that “uwu cancel culture is bad uwu” bs whenever someone tries not even to cancel but to just criticize that celebrity for something shitty they did. why do you hold celebrities to such high standards in the first place?  why is it so hard to think for yourself and not wait for your favorite white celebrity to tweet about how evil trump is? why do you act like any valid criticism of someone who doesn’t even acknowledge your existence is a personal attack against you? why do you seek validation for yourself through complete strangers? you are so much better than this. 

people have the right to feel disappointed when a celebrity they used to look up to does something bad, but some fans can’t move on from that and that’s the result of celebrity worship and attachement to literal strangers they think they know but they’re just projecting themselves onto. people have the right to defend a celebrity if they feel like they’re being wrongly accused of something but taking the criticism personally because you seek validation for yourself by “stanning” that celebrity is also a huge problem. 

please realize your own self worth and stop relying on rich people to feel good about yourself. enjoy their work but don’t let that cloud your judgement. don’t try to make excuses for celebrities because you want to make yourself feel better about enjoying their work. don’t expect anything from these people either and don’t wait for them to educate you and speak about social issues. it’s good to use your platform to educate, that is true, but waiting for celebrities to speak up instead of researching and doing so by yourself and then getting mad when they don’t address any current issues is as performative as other celebrities who love to preach to their fans online when something happens but refuse to take any action irl or show any support for the marginalized people they are claiming to support. 

please think for yourself. you are as great as you find these people to be. don’t let stan culture cloud your judgement and affect your experience with their work.

Celebrity Crush

@shaonharryandpannisim​ and for anyone who wants to listen :)

TL DR; Of course it’s normal to have celebrity crushes and more than often it’s exactly what you said - admiration + healthy dose of ‘I will watch this project ‘cause they’re in it.’ BUT the other side is so toxic that it has permanently turned me off from having celeb crushes in general. 

Crush /krəSH/

noun

(informal) a brief but intense infatuation for someone, especially someone unattainable or inappropriate.

Warning: The following is completely my opinion and please continue having your healthy crushes. It’s mostly why I don’t crush. Thanks to coming for my biased TED talk in advance.

I will be chiefly discussing Barun Sobti and Adam Driver. 

First Contact w/ Unhealthy Fandom

The first time I saw a man and went WOW that’s one really good looking person was Barun Sobti as Arnav Singh Raizada - ok he did look like a little baby for the first few episodes but then he does this backward glance while walking away from his love interest and I felt the intensity of the gaze. And of course, that’s the goal of the whole scene. 

So I jumped into the fandom, truly ready to discuss about how amazing he is BUT BUT BUT there were some very weird people out there. Like complete creeps to be honest. 

- The people who thought that Barun Sobti should have a ‘better’ wife. Like she isn’t “enough” or some shit like that. 

- People who think that he and Sanaya (his co star of IPKKND) are married / should be married / are having an affair - crap like that. Like people who can’t differentiate between Arnav Singh Raizada and Barun Sobti. 

- People who think that because they see him on their screens all day, they typically own aspects of his life and are offended by his choice of privacy. So they can pass opinions, think they are a better match for him or that he should be working on all projects solely with Sanaya? (I wanna see them back but please - not this way!)

Maybe I was searching the wrong places all the time but it’s so difficult to communicate wholesome admiration. I, never ever, want to hug/kiss/physically get close or even meet him ‘cause I’m a weird person (lol) and genuinely I’d always like to meet Sobti in the capacity of a friend / respectful fan than anything else. 

So I thought this was an issue that only was there with Sobti *cue lol hah*, no it just gets amplified with the bigger someone’s star status is. 

Fans Who Can Be Batshit Crazy

*enters* Adam Driver. 

Okay, I can wax out fifteen hundred poetries for this man because I am in love with his talent, dedication, skill and yes he does look amazing. In a lot of places he’s called the ‘sex symbol’ of the millennium and I would agree!

He’s a bloody good actor - I’d spend any amount of money to watch him. But like apart from worshipping his talent and being in awe of his physicality and thinking that the Lord took his time to make this man - yup, ends right about there. Do I imagine to be his wife or even have him physically close to me *ew no*? No. 

People who comment on the actor’s partner, their children, etc. I once found a weird comment where a person asked how would their child find their father/mother intensely attractive and having a great chemistry with someone else? 

Oh God... let’s not even begin there! For a child the parent is always the parent - ideally a lovable, protective, figure. Even if the parent is Hercules! 

Also Adam played a character who was sexually very, very active and there’s a bunch of people who CANNOT differentiate between him and his character.  

Again, some people who think they own him or can pass judgements on his personal life just because they see him in their screens all the time. 

The Good Fans

I won’t go into majority or minority because of course I don’t have any statistics! But then here’s a section of amazing and fantastic fans who have an infatuation and are very aware of everything and in fact laugh it off and don’t assume a sort of right over their choice of actor! 

So it is a bunch of people who are like “yum Driver is delicious!” or like “eyes, eyes Sobti’s eyes!” and THESE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE who would battle anyone who said that they should get different wives or shit like that. 

They truly love the person. For their talent, personality, personal lives and with a healthy dose of naughtiness. John Oliver’s segment on Adam Driver always cracks me up because, at the end of the day, it’s a joke :) 

These are the people who write excellent smut, and are very aware of the difference between the actor and character he plays, and are VERY RESPECTFUL in nature.

This bunch of fans wish they were married (in a completely hilarious, joking, way) to the actor, or had an intense eye staring (again, humor and silliness is the ultimate result), or at least danced/romanced their favorite actor.

Mainly, they love the actor, their characters, their families, their choice to be private and everything else! 

The Respectful Fans

They are not infatuated with the actor, but deeply respect the actor and are ready to defend the actor against the world. I fall here, I don’t feel romantically inclined to do anything with the actor but I do love them, with all my heart and soul. 

And maybe I would want someone to be the way the actor’s CHARACTERS behave. Or maybe have the actor’s qualities (presumed) of loyalty, kindness, etc? 

“Thirst Tweets”

I have a love-hate relationship with this because you don’t know if it’s a person who is a Good Fan with some excellent smutty thoughts or it’s a Weird Fan. Also it puts a lot of us into the assumption that the actor wants to hear it? 

And if it’s around promotions time then a lot of actors perform as their characters than themselves you know? 

Some actors absolutely revel in it and know how to deflect the dirtiest of tweets with their comments - they’re absolutely in sync with the thoughts *Henry Cavill’s reaction is the best, even Tom Ellis* 

And some actors, dear Lord, they are so embarrassed that they don’t know how to react, call out what’s weird but appreciate the sweet ones *Shawn Mendes*. 

If You Love the Actor, Love their Private Lives

One final note in all of this, if we love the actor we must love his/her/their choice of privacy :) Actors like Sobti, Driver are intensely private so that should be taken into consideration :) I find it weird when some criticize that. It’s their life, we love them, we should love the entirety of them! 

What do People Think About Crushes?

Sorry @shaonharryandpannisim​, I’m finally coming to your question - I don’t know. But because of my little, weird travels through the several kind of fans - I just feel the need to explain people what I have when I say I ‘crush’ on someone. 

That I genuinely love the actor, love their characters, can spend a few moments thinking that their the perfect creation of the Lord, if they played a character who’s single then would totally put my dibs on the character in the alternate universe BUT I HAVE NO REAL INTENTIONS FOR THE REAL PERSON. Please no.

Also, if they ended up being shitty people then I don’t care how handsome / talented the person is. They’re immediately out of my admiration list. 

But I don’t think you have to worry because we all know what a sweet crush means for you and for most sensible people <3 Even actors have crushes - Ranbir Kapoor for Madhuri Dixit, etc. 

Takeaway

If you’re sensible - CRUSH AWAY. Stay away from weird people. And generally people know what a genuine, sincere crush is so don’t worry (I might have just studied toxic celebrity culture in university too). 

Some people who I know on Tumblr who really know how to show appreciation: @m0hinii​ / @tellywoodtrash​, @ferociouspompom​ / @phati-sari​, @zaphbeeblebrox​, @arnavsinghraizada​ / @da-vinci-of-our-time-blog​ to name a few. 

Thank you,

Tata,

S / Jalebi.

On the topic, do you have any advice on how to stop obsessing over celebs? 🙈 I want to put my life first and exciting things I could be doing (also with God)

Oh wow, I think I actually have something to say about this. Also, I’ve obsessed over celebrities this past year too, not just five years ago (almost forgot about that haha). Hopefully I can help you out somehow <3

Like with all addictions and obsessions, we have to find something better to replace them with if we want to get rid of them. We also have to understand why this thing is bad and especially how it’s affecting our souls. Obsessing over celebrities, or humans in general, is bad because it’s often idolisation.. that’s why they’re called idols. We see them as perfect or at least close to perfect, or else we wouldn’t be obsessing over them.

God doesn’t want that for us, He hated with a passion when the people of Israel had idols that they worshiped over Him. We still do this nowadays, just not with wooden statues. Anything we love and trust more than God, anything we delight in more than we delight in God, anything we put before Him.. is an idol. God is jealous for the 1st place in our hearts. The funniest (if you will) thing about it is that God is the only one that is perfect and beautiful and worthy of worship, yet we choose these imeprfect ideas and images and people instead..

So I would suggest that you replace these celebrities with the Word of God, reading the Bible (the whole thing!).. I know, at first it will look like a salad leaf next to a steak — you don’t even know where to start and there’s so much you don’t understand. But you will be “transformed by the renewing of your mind” when you do so (Rom.‬ ‭12:2‬). And above all, pray that God Himself would put the loyalties of your heart straight.. we can’t do it ourselves, but you even asking this question already shows that God has put the desire in your heart.

We have to believe that God is better than anything this world has to offer, and the comfort He gives surpasses anything we have ever experienced on this planet. And, like C. S. Lewis said (roughly), “anything other than God that we worship as a god will eventually become a demon”.. I’ve seen it happen in my own life and I can testify, it’s true. Those things can’t handle worship, because it belongs to God alone.

Hope this helped you out, we can talk more privately too.. God bless you so much and I know that you will overcome this in Jesus’ Name ❤️

Abby's running around practically screaming "they're in the same room together!!! COUPLES GOALS!!!!" and she has the audacity to ask other people how they're not mortified by their behavior? really?

Anonymous said: www(.)gettyimages(.)com/detail/news-photo/eric-podwall-and-ricky-rollins-attend-podwall-news-photo/1179378303 how have they missed this pic? You can see Darren and Chris in the bg and it looks like they're talking. So there we go, they did talk and they're not forbidden from interacting in public by evil Ryan Murphy or Ricky. They're two perfectly normal ex co stars who are friendly when they run into each other at parties but aren't BFFLs.

Anonymous said: And they wonder why D and C don't want to take pictures together? They've been tormenting them for YEARS with posts and comments and tags even without any single photo of the two of them together in the same place. If I was D or C I'd be terrified with the thought.

Anonymous said: there is no doubt in my mind that Darren and Chris had a conversation last night. they are friendly with each other. tinhats act like we think they hate each other, which is just completely untrue. they don't take photos with or mention each other professionally because some fans ruin it by saying their s/os are beards who deserve to be harassed online.

Anonymous said: And even if they did talk last night, which they most likely did at some point as they know each other and were at the same place and there's no reason to believe they would ouright ignore each other, it still wouldn't mean anything other than they talked. To go from "casual chat at a party" to "secret years' long marriage" is the definition of "get yourself checked out" lol

Anonymous said: I'm sure Darren and Chris talked to each other last night, but obviously not long enough to be caught in the background of a photo face to face ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anonymous said: “How amazing is this pic.  D talking to someone that is blocked and we can clearly see he is within speaking distance to the man he lives with!!!!!  I guess our theory is right about who is spending time with who. Shame there is nor formal pic. Bet they have a ton on their cells.” Gawd talk about desperation. abby should stop stating lies like they are truth

Anonymous said: “And more importantly, why do you care if they were talking? Does that threaten you? It should because it is sold they hate each other and guess you are as you had to send a hate message to me” lols no one thinks they hate each other but keep on lying Abby

Anonymous said: “Oh CC delivered last night!” lmaoo no they didn’t abs

Anonymous said: The bullshit abut Mia’s CDV costume is crap. People dress up as the devil but that doesn’t mean they worship satan! People dress up as bank robbers but that doesn’t mean thats what they are. Costumes are just costumes just like tv and book characters are just characters.

Anonymous said: "he ever wanted or needed to considering he primarily works from their home:)" Oh my god, that escalated quickly... so now they are a threesome or what? Where is this fanfic published because I'd love to read it lol. Their conspiracies get more ridiculous every time.

Anonymous said: Darren and Chris go to that party every year and never take a pic together, why do people think this year would be any different? It's clear that they're not comfortable with it for whatever reason. And it's not just the tinhats, people on twitter are obsessing over it too. They don't owe it to anyone to take a photo together.

Anonymous said: Hahaha tinhats are celebrating Darren and Chris being in the same room as if they just got a shot of them making out or something. They are like five feet away from one another, but hey it’s the best they can hope for at this point so I guess they will take what they can get. It’s just hilarious that they’re like “You can’t deny they were both there”. Why would we want to? No one cares that they were in the same room except the tinhats. The rest of us noticed that they went with their actual SOs

Anonymous said: "how does she stand in the same room as C/hris, an accomplished, beautiful, successful, highly intelligent, wonderful man and hold her head up? She is absolutely vile and  devoid of self respect." I would be soo embarrassed of saying that in public. I keep wanting to say "if Chris is a self insert, how on earth does she think of herself as beautiful" and even just writing it down as an anon makes me cringe and hate myself a little. What the fuck is wrong with this woman? I really am asking for?

Anonymous said: “What I would love is a photo of Chris and Mia” Abby would just spin it so that whatever expression Chris and Mia are making means that he’s “glaring” at her and she’s knowing she’s not the one Darren wants or some shit, just like they did with other pics with both of them

Anonymous said: It's funny how in Abby land that pic is amazing but if it was Mia in Chris' position standing that far away from Darren, it would be proof they're not really married because how dare they leave each other's side and talk to someone else. Also why aren't either of them smiling? I thought if you were near your real lover you had to grin as wide as possible?

Anonymous said: I'm surprised Abby hasn't complained that Will is standing in the middle center of the first costume pic on Chris' ig. I thought the most successful person had to stand at the front?

Anonymous said: Lol that "CC riot" is at Matt Morrison's party which the Glee peeps have been going to forever. Matt's manager Eric Podwall throws it every year in Matt's honor because it's also Matt's birthday. They hold it regardless of whether Matt can attend, one year he was in NYC because he was a BW musical but they still had the party in LA. Chris has been going to it every year. I think Darren may have missed some but I can't recall, in any case he goes to it if he's around. It's a celeb party.

Anonymous said: Like you said, for me Mia is clearly speaking to Chris. You can see Will and Ashley's pants, and she's talking to someone between them, where Chris was in other pics. They're clearly friendly with each other, but I'd say Chris avoids pics with them to avoid the crazies...

Anonymous said: "D talking to someone that is blocked and we can clearly see he is within speaking distance to the man he lives with!!!!!" LOL Darren is speaking to someone who isn't Chris. Chris is at the other corner next to Will, not looking at Darren, and Will standing there is blocking any sight of Darren for Chris anyway. That's the proof of proofs!

Anonymous said: Yep, Darren, Mia, Chris, Will, Ashley at a Halloween party and a picture of Darren talking to someone (the tinhatters insist is Chris) and Abby and her coven are going nuts. Abby actually says something about the possibility of 'a dalmatian (Darren) licking Elton John (Chris)' and the two of them in a dark corner making out. She truly needs help.

Anonymous said: There's a pic of Mia and Will talking at Matts party last night, WIA IS ON GUYS

Anonymous said: Darren is a Dalmatian tonight. Which will be interpreted as him “screaming the truth” to us all that he isn’t really allergic to dogs and that Mia is depriving him of pets which is totes “abuse.”

EDUCATION

My parents never once told me if they were Republican or Democrat and, until my senior year of high school (08-09), i never paid any attention to politics. My parents were and are firm believers that no one has a right to know who you vote for. that the right to vote is also your right to your privacy of that vote. My Government teacher was a DIE HARD democrat and probably the original obama worshiper (as well as an original dinosaur). I called her "Demon Dawson" and for good reason. At the beginning of the school year, I was nervous because i knew nothing about the topic and didn't think i'd be able to bs my way through it like i did the other classes which just came easily to me. I asked her if we would be able to debate and see both sides of all the arguments because i had no idea what was going on. She said of course we would.

fyi, we did not. Now. I am a white mutt. Both my parents are mutts and they had mutt children. I have a sister who is blond and a brother who could move to mexico and not look out of place. I myself could live in any continent i choose and look both native and foreign at the same time. while demon dawson tried to single handedly shove her preaching down my throat, again, i grew up in a house hold that if you had questions, then you had to ask. No one can read your mind. So I asked her questions...and she hardly answered them, and when she did, it was in a round about way which ended up with her talking about something else entirely. This irritated me. I was, and still am, used to straight answers; even if that answer is "look it up for yourself and then we’ll talk" or “read a book (or this book) and then we’ll talk”. So I took to watching every single news station i could. And then weeded them out from there. HLN and the like i cut out first, i really had NO interest in celeb -news (I was a strange child...) ABC was similar to my local news CBS so it was just a waste of time. and MSNBC for some reason just institutionally pissed me off ....for some reason....maybe because i don't like being told what to think..... So I settled into watching FOX and CNN. I would have just settled on FOX because i realized that CNN and FOX covered a lot of the same stories, but i got MORE of the story from FOX and, seriously, if you're gonna tell the story, then tell the whole story, am i right? BUT demon dawson made watching CNN part of my grade, so i watched CNN and FOX the entire year. demon dawson realized i wasn't falling into her wrinkly clutches and decided that the class needed to turn against me. One day she specifically asked me what i thought about obamas speech the night before. Truth be told i only watched half of it. I told her as much, hoping she'd move on. She insisted on my thoughts so, being the blunt person i am, i told her he sounded like a snake. That he had a forked tongue and it felt like he was talking down on me and trying to trick me. I don't like being called stupid...even indirectly, so i stopped watching it. Then the class decided to start cussing me out and threaten me. The teacher let them. that day a friend of mine had to walk me to the school bus because of all the threats to jump me after school. I can handle one or two on my own, but after about three out loud death threats....not so much. Later on that same class period, she brought up my comment again, and ENCOURAGED the class to cuss me out and attack me verbally.  After obama became pres and was sworn in and all that, i was officially on demon dawsons black list because they all assumed i did NOT vote for obama.  And if i didn’t vote for him, then it didn’t matter who i voted for. When i was "cornered" about this in class, i told them it was because i believed a man with military experience should be in charge of the military; somehow this still made me racist... (by the way, we never learned anything about actual government....we were just preached to...seriously....we all failed the final and she passed us all anyway because she wanted to look like a good teacher to the school board....) My dad used to work at the high school but was fired because too many of his students had 'F's ...even though he was at the school by 6am and didn't go home until city curfew. He always made sure he was available to students who needed help. if they failed, it was their fault. BUT that wasn't good enough for demon dawson. I discovered that she had a hand in getting him fired. See i was reading a book during class on day, ya know, cause we weren't learning anything anyway, and all of a sudden she stops in the middle of her sentence and was like, "Was that your father?" I blinked up at her and then looked to the hallway and didn't see anyone out there. "I just saw your dad out there, i thought he didn't work here anymore," she had said this rather rudely, i might add. But I just shrugged. My dad can do whatever he likes, its not like he's banned from the school. then i remembered something he'd said the night before. "Dad said he was going to see Ms. Powers today and give her some chocolate, so what?" demon dawson then calmed down, she even put a hand to her chest (like she'd seen a ghost) and was all like, "oh well, then never mind." And she just continued on like nothing happened. I told my dad that evening and he told me about a time when she had tried to get him to 'debate/argue' with her and he wouldn't. She kept on trying to get him riled up and he just continued to answer her calmly and refused to engage in any political discussions with her. Funnily enough, that was the year before he was fired, so, yeah. demon dawson got my dad fired because she was afraid of him and she couldn't manipulate him. My story isn't so much as "#Walk away" as its a "#stay away" and "#let's see how this plays out". the reason i never considered myself a dem is NOT because of my parents, but because the moment i started to pay attention to politics, i was attacked and told i was stupid for not following the "norm". i was told i was racist because i didn't like rap and i didn't like being talked down to by flamboyant obaka. I was told i was a bigot because i believed in traditional marriage. i was told i was a freak and stupid and mean because i was pro-life. i don't like being TOLD. in middle school i was TOLD to go die. I was TOLD that i was ugly. I was TOLD that i was nothing. I am alive. I never shot up a school. because i know THE truth. there is no "MY" truth. there is THE truth. and THE truth, is that we are ALL humans and we are ALL going to screw up. i don't hate these people, but they hate me. So what are we going to do? are we going to react and let THEM dictate how we behave? are we objects to be acted upon? or will we hold to the truth and work hard and trust that everything will be ok and act. for. our. selves. we are humans. we will act with what we know. just let them freak out and blow their own minds. protect yourself if it gets to that point, but really....they're just noise. Hurtful, noise. But we are humans and we don't have to let that effect us. (sorry this is so long....)

In 2014, Harry Styles is more than a pop star. He’s the place where pop dreams intersect. The One Direction heartthrob has turned into the beatific embodiment of all that glitters right now. A new paradigm of manhood. A pin-up boy. A feminist icon. A 20-year-old pop prince born the day Green Day released Dookie. A mop-top with George Michael lyrics tattooed on his body — “never gonna” on his right foot, “dance again” on the left. A stud with four nipples, perpetually tousled hair and that James Dean daydream look in his eyes. This guy actually wore a Rush T-shirt while on a date with Taylor Swift — now that’s some next-level confidence.

Pop is a girl’s world these days — more than ever, the artists who matter are female, while the male singers are as disposable as the male fans. Harry understands this, which is why he has become the Boy Who Matters. He knows he serves at the pleasure of a girl audience that absolutely cannot be bought, scammed, condescended to or taken for granted. (It’s been tried.) If you’re a girl pop fan, you are the only power player in the music business. Everybody else is scared stiff of you. As far as pop is concerned, 2014 is the Year of the Girl, and Harry is the Boy of the Year of the Girl. Nobody else comes close.

Harry fits every type of pop obsession, from filthy fan-fiction to squeaky-clean teen dreams — the shiny and the sleazy, the romance and the raunch. When the world beheld paparazzi photos of Harry puking his guts out by the side of the road in broad daylight in L.A., did that kill anyone’s buzz? Ah, no. It just inspired people to turn the site into a fan shrine — and try to sell his vomit on eBay. Harry’s reponse? “It’s worrying, this world we live in.” Sorry, dude — but when women are worshipping your yack puddle as magic angel chunks, you have entered a rarefied level of reality.

Harry’s enthusiasm is the key to 1D’s astonishing longevity. He spends half the live show telling his fans how beautiful they are, despite the fact that he’s got all those blinding lights in his face. Try to find a photo where he looks weary or bored. You can’t. He has perfected the art of being a boy in a girl world, and he doesn’t neglect the fans’ moms, either. The best song on the new 1D album, “Stockholm Syndrome,” sounds exactly like Billy Ocean — now that’s some brilliant mom-service.

His tattoos add up to an ongoing diary. The tattoo on his wrist that said, “I can’t change”? He got it covered up with an anchor. (Analyze away!) Every time he gets new ink — a mermaid, “You Booze You Lose,” that weird foliage on his hipbones — it’s a fresh chapter, full of mystic runes for us all to decipher. (Why a mermaid? “I am a mermaid,” he explained. Oh.)

After a year or two on the job, your average teen idol tends to turn into a jaded little crank. You remember Justin Bieber, don’t you? It’s hard to appreciate how much boy singers hate being in boy bands. By the third or fourth album, they’re making no effort to hide their misery. (A year after “I Want It That Way,” the Backstreet Boys called their next album Black and Blue.) They agonize about getting taken seriously. They make award-show speeches about their haters.

But not Harry. The strain of the pop hustle never leaves a mark on him. He has all the flash, without the neurotic wear and tear. This fall he posted a picture of himself holding a “#HeForShe” sign, supporting Emma Watson’s feminist activism — “as should you.” None of the squeamishness celebs usually bring to politics — just the world’s most ardently desired male going HAM for feminism just because he’s Harry and he can say whatever the hell he wants. Unprecedented, to say the least.

There was a clip of Harry on a U.K. chat show a couple months ago — did you watch it? Oh, stop lying, of course you did — the one where he and Liam get asked what they look for in a date. Liam jokes, “Female — that’s an important trait.” Harry casually says, “Not that important.” We can make a long, long list of male singers who would never in a million years be secure enough to say anything like that. But Harry the Quadri-Nippled Love God lives by the credo tattooed on his stomach: “Might as well.”

No pop star has summed up the cultural moment like this since vintage python-era Britney. Except Brit was an unfiltered-and-proud mess of a Southern girl, while Harry is pure enigma. If he has any inner turmoil, he keeps it to himself. He remains a blank space (so to speak) on which we can project any style (so again to speak) of fantasy. He’s the last of the great English fabs, upholding a 50-year tradition. Yet the more famous he gets, the more mysterious he seems. He just glides through it all, with a hint of Brian Jones lunacy in his cracked grin.

He’s inspired a new novel — Anna Todd’s heavily hyped After is based on her soft-porn Harry fan-fic, with his name changed. It might be the first work of Harry Lit — but that depends on how you interpret Shakespeare’s Henry V, which now also reads like soft-porn Harry fan-fic. (“Every wretch, pining and pale before / Beholding him, plucks comfort from his looks / A largess universal, like the sun.”) Make no mistake: There’s only one Harry in this or any other solar system. And in 2014, anything worthy of the name “hotness” was mixed up with him somehow. That’s why Harry’s reinventing the pop-star game. And that’s why the whole world craves a little touch of Harry in the night.

A few days ago I made a post about Instagram secrets which got a lot of hype. Later I made a post about the Facebook Fraud which too got a lot of hype.These both posts had a lot of common questions. One of them being the blue print of Instagram that worked for me after 11 months of research.If you haven't already - PLEASE - have a look at the post The Facebook Fraud or else you'll just hate all the techniques I'm going to discuss in this post. Yes - THEY ARE dishonest (a lot of cheating) - but I guess if Facebook, Instagram and billion dollar social media agencies are OPENLY fucking everyone over for making an extra buck then why should we be the righteous men?If you choose the honest path then I guess you should better leave all social media platforms as they themselves are nothing short of blackhat thieves.The Blue Print(Once again this would make sense if you had read the other two posts I made) You can check them here - https://www.reddit.com/r/Entrepreneur/comments/7ezgco/the_facebook_fraud/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Entrepreneur/comments/7erlr3/hushhush_secrets_to_instagram_no_one_would_share/Step 1Make an Instagram account that has possibility of getting monetized. At the end of the day - if you're going to work hard to build an Instagram audience / fan base - it has to give you something in return right?There are some niches that are BOOMING and always will get a LOT of hype on Instagram.Don't get me wrong - almost everything can be monetized but some niches are easier and quicker to monetize.My personal experience is that niches related to beauty, fashion, travel, hotels (basically industries that are super visual) will always convert quick.Think of your potential sponsors and then build up a niche related page accordingly.If Fashion - your sponsors would be - fashion brands, fashion events, fashion retailers, malls, beauty products, beauty services (salons, parlors) and so much more - almost every big city has a MILLION fashion retailers. They wouldn't mind giving you $1000 for a post. (If that statement makes you feel a bit confused - wait a bit - I'll explain later)If Travel - hotels, restaurants, bars, travel boards - all these would be your potential sponsors. I can name 1000+ travelers who travel the world for free and do it on the back of their YouTube / Instagram. Its pretty doable. And they get invited to stay at 5 star resorts - they travel first class AND they still get money on TOP of it.Step 2Post regular content. This one is so obvious. Have a clean feed that has a unique look and feel. A lot of Instagrammers develop a set of colors (filters) that they use for all their photos to make their feed look 'unique'. Not much to talk about here. Post good content. Thats all. A few tutorials on Lightroom and Photoshop and you're good to go.Step 3 (Cheating)Social validation is the key. Its the classic example of a bar. A girl would be more attracted to a guy who has himself surrounded by a few girls (and guys). That is social validation right there. A girl that is in demand would want a guy who has some social proof. This is just so BASIC.I'll tell you a short story. This is like year and years ago. A far relative of mine opened up a small snacks canteen in his town. The place had a small area for seating on the inside and a bit of outdoor seating for customers. The place (street) where he opened up this snack bar was one that saw a lot of school kids pass by as there were a lot of schools located nearby.What he did next was epic. He literally paid $10 each to a bunch of kids to come at his canteen everyday after school hours and sit and eat for free. As much as they wanted.What happened next was the fun part. All the other kids noticed that these kids are sitting there having snacks and just hanging out. You can guess what happened then. Social proof. Automatically in a weeks time the place started getting flooded with these school kids. They all made this place THE place to hangout after school hours.Every retailer does this in some way or the other. When I go out to dinner on a weekend with my friends - we obviously JUDGE the places (options) we have by the crowd size. I'd rather go to a diner which has 5 customers already than go to one that looks deserted. You see how we think? Its just so obvious. Don't you think?This applies to social media too. If 5000 people have likes your photo and then I see it. I have a higher chance of liking it (obviously if the content is decent enough). If your photo has a handful of likes - I probably won't like it UNLESS your content is just mind blowing.If I see an Instagram page that has 1 mil followers I immediately assume that this person is a big deal. Its just so natural. Do I care if that 1 mil followers are real or fake? Man who the fuck got time to check and shit? Haha. Yes, for us people who are actively building a base on social media and are marketers - yes we may give a fuck - but the general population? I guess not.They'd see that 1m on your Instagram page and worship you.Step 3 is simple. Buy yourself some social proof bruh! Ain't no way around it. Wait until you have like 100 posts (upload 4 a day that would mean in 25 days you have like 100 posts) and start pumping them fake followers.Do it to point where you have 100,000+ followers in about 3 months since you started. That would mean 90 days of posting and pumping. Lets put it out at 1000 followers per day x 90 days = 90,000 followers 4 posts per day x 90 days = 360 postsStep 4 (This happens alongside step 3)During the time in which you build your posts and followers (fake) - you will have to get yourself some engagement to match the growing base of followers right?This is where engagement pods come into picture. For the millionth time - these are groups of Instagrammers who come together on a chat platform and exchange engagement.99% of the engagement pods are FREE. My advice? Its really not worth joining a paid engagement pod. You'd just be disappointed.Just Google for Instagram Engagement Pods - there are a hundred of those out there. Join them all and see what works best for you.So far You have some social proof. You have a clean feed. You have 100k+ followers. You have 300+ posts. Your posts get 800-1000 likes per post and 100-200 comments per post via engagement pod.Step 5 (Laundering the blackhat followers into whitehat followers)This is the step that all billion dollar social media agencies that manage celeb accounts do that most of you always ignore.There a TIME and place to convert it all into reality.We faked it until step 4 and by step 5 we need to make it.Gaming the Instagram algo to get a ton of real followers daily.Instagram algo is changing drastically. Every day they are trying out something new or the other. Just like Facebook - Instagram is trying its best to fuck you over so that it can make money. So - if honest way is you motto - be ready to spend a million dollars to attract Pakistani and Egyptian followers who are bots and never engage (see my posts about The Facebook Fraud if you don't know what I'm talking about).To my knowledge - as I'm writing this post - Instagram is playing around with its algo.Instagram wants to get more local and less global (user experience/interaction). It wants peoples reach to become more local (so that if they wish to go global - get their posts noticed beyond their base - they'd have to pay) - Thats what Facebook did.Instagram now will show you content (explore / top post feed) based on what you interact with and whom you interact with. If you're follower a user A and that user liked a photo X then the chances are that you will see that photo X. I hope that makes sense.If you interacted with a user (watched their live video / checkout their stories in the past) - Instagram will show you that too.This is both good news and bad news. Bad news as top post page is no longer global and more tailored to the user (you).What you see on top post page for X hashtag won't be the same as the other user (unless if they're your friend / follower).So the reach is getting more limited (Thanks Instagram for fucking us over - we came - you said we could have fun on your platform for free but sooner or later you had to get greedy!)Off topic - Its funny when redditors get horny when someone (a redditor) offers something for free to the public and redditors go like (sure - sooner or later you will make it a paid thing and you'll fuck us over) - Haha. Funny isn't it? Thats exactly what everyone does isn't it? Somehow or the other they make that cash back. Either they sell your data for pennies like you're nothing but a piece of shit or they make you into an advertiser so you pay them cash and still get fucked over. Lol.Moving on ... In this step - you will need to inject (cheat) fake likes to your posts. There are a billion companies that provide this service called auto like. Meaning - whenever you post on Instagram you get X amount of likes based on your package right when you post. So lets say you buy a package that gives you 5000 likes per post whenever you post within like 15 mins of you posting.Thats a ton of social proof man. This will push your post and make it appear 'trending' to Instagram and make your post appear on top post and explore page to a wide audience.Get this done - buy a small package for the start - maybe 1000 likes per most and gradually increase it to 5000 likes per post.But wait. What is point of all of this?HERE IS ANOTHER SECRET - Getting thousands of likes (fake ones) from these services + getting a thousand real likes FROM engagement pods (that are filled with authority accounts like 10k,50k,100k,500k and so on) will get your post to appear to millions of people.As in this way you start out local - but you go global as all those people on pods are from all around the world - so NOT ONLY they will like your posts - but with you having a ton of likes - their own followers will see your posts. Thats when it goes global.STEP 6 (Becoming Jesus)Here is when you wash away all your sins. Its funny how every teenage girl who is obsessed with Instagram knows this but most mediocre marketers don't.THE GIVEAWAYYou have no idea how many giveaways Instagrammers (the ones who are serious) do. Thats the same with YouTube isn't it? All the YouTubers I follow (most of them are really famous) - they all have these giveaways right? Be it iPhone or a trip with the YouTuber itself or a chance to meet the said YouTuber and so on.Instagrammers are doing the same.You NEED to take part in giveaway loops. If you don't know what this mean (giveaway loop) then you are NOT AT ALL a serious Intagrammer. Basically - you connect with 5-7 Instagrammers that are IN YOUR NICHE and are big. Lets say you connect with 7 of them who are travelers (you too are one) and each of them have like 100k-500k followers right? You start a giveaway. You each put in X amount of $ and one of buys a bunch of iPhones and other X/Y/Z things to giveaway and you start a giveaway loop. That way you gain followers from each others base.You must be thinking (but my base is of fake followers - what will I give?) - nothing. Haha. Not for the start at least.You should make 2-3 giveaways every month for 2-3 months and you'd SURELY reach 500K with JUST that.Don't believe me? Checkout this company called Sunny Co Clothing. Its a swimsuit company and they got 600k Instagram followers in 48 hours. You know what they did? Everything I described above AND they went all in with giveaway. Basically they told that everyone who reposts their (Sunny Co) photo will GET a free bathing suit.What happened in next 48 hours? They gained 600k real followers? You see? You gotta be serious and smart if you gotta go big man. Stop fooling around with them bots and shit. Stop hating the game. Sooner or later we all wash away our sins. Haha.Partnering with the right Instagrammers for loop giveaway can be tricky but then again if you're in Instagram pods filled with amazing Instagrammers and you get to know them then you just have to shoot out a message to them. Chances are they too know you as they'd be commenting and liking your photo on a daily basis right?So it becomes easy.Yes - it will cost you money. But you gotta have money to make money.YouTubers these days do a lot of drama. Wherein they act and make drama as if there is a fight between two big YouTubers ... they start making diss tracks and exchange insults (drama) and what not.Everyone falls for this ... but its all a hoax. In this way - they both (the both Youtubers) get to have more subscribers.Lets say I have 1mil subscribers on YouTube. I am Nate. And lets say you have 1mil subscribers on YouTube and your name is Joe.What happens when Nate makes a diss track about Joe? And then Joe makes a diss track about Nate?Haha. Obvious. The both get A TON OF VIEWS and all that drama? Its funny as most of these drama people on YouTube after a few exhange of disses they make an apology video and become friends.That base of followers? Its get exchanged and they BOTH go BIG.So funny that no one realizes this (the marketers on Reddit specially).Its all game bruh. Either you play it and get that Lambo or someone else will and then you'd sit and cry.STEP 7 (Making money)Well by this time - say you have 500+ posts, with all the fake and real and engagement pods combined you have 10K likes per post - you are somewhere near 500K followers - its all good man. Haha.This is when you FIRST start trading shoutouts with the BIG sharks. If you're a traveler and you're sharing your Travel experiences via Instagram then reach out to those who are the BIG sharks. Ones which have big big big fan base. I'm talking about those who have 1mil or more. You have so much going on - the people you approach would surely reply to you won't they?Meet up with them - its FUN - collaborate - exchange drama - and exchange base (NO COST INVOLVED here) You see? Its all going to become real now.You got a fashion page? Get in touch with the big fashion bloggers and meet with them - call them - make some drama like YouTubers do. Repost each others stuff. Get the word out. Go even more bigger.Do this for a while and the next step will happen naturally.FINAL STEPGotta get that green stuff right?Honestly speaking - by this time - based on your niche - brands would be on their knees asking you to advertise for them. Would it matter that 6 months ago you started out with fake followers? I guess not. Haha. By now you have 600K+++ and only 100/200K is fake. So no harm to anyone bruh.If you have an engaged community then you can safely charge $600 per 100k followers. At 600K that would mean ~$3K per post.But then again - you should have experience working with brands. If you're a traveler - during the first few months (once you've crossed 100K by fake followers) - you should mail hotels for free stays. I doubt anyone would say no.Once you grow to 200-300K then approach larger hotel chains (5 star hotels and resorts) and ask them for more longer stays. I can name a 1000 travelers who travel the world on the back of their Instagram.Just keep doing this.By the time you reach 500K+++ you'd have all hotels inviting you to stay with them. They'd pay for your round trip. Expenses. AND pay you cash too.Aren't most of the travelers who are famous on YouTube and Instagram doing just that? Why can't you?Phew - Thats all for this post guys! This is a LOT of stuff. You guys can complain all you want down below. Just remember - if you ain't driving that Lambo - someone else will - and if Facebook and Instagram themselves LOVE stealing views and money, faking stats - then why can't you? Its all fair if in the end you come out clean is all I'm saying.Good Luck to all.FYI - DO NOT ask for recommendations on where to buy fake shit. Google is your friend. If you want to join pods or buy fake shit. Just Google it. When joining a pod - be sure that you DO NOT pay to join one. More often than not, you'd regret it.

Famous Christians

(for @jetboijetgurl)

Obviously, I don’t know what these people are like behind closed doors, whether they are loving and graceful or not. But they do claim to be Christians. Also, keep in mind that although I’m making this list to show you that there are loving Christians, unlike the ones you’ve known, we all are capable of being nasty, hateful people. The biggest thing that makes Christians different is that we give grace, that is how we love. Even though nobody is perfect, true Christians will be graceful, for Christianity as a whole is built on grace.

(I got some of these from this list) http://www.ranker.com/list/celebrities-who-are-christians/celebrity-lists

I’m basically listing celebrity Christians that I like, and personally think are great people, not just every celeb who says they’re a Christian.

Stephen Colbert "I was raised in a Catholic tradition. I'll start there. That's my context for my existence, is that I am here to know God, love God, serve God, that we might be happy with each other in this world and with Him in the next—the catechism."

Tyler Perry "I am a Christian, I am a believer, and I know had I not been a person of faith, I couldn't be here in this place, and I wouldn't be walking the path that I'm on now. And I think the greater good of the path I'm on now is to teach people to learn to forgive and move on, in a way that's done through the healing power of humor." I just teared up fyi. This man… he has had a huge impact on my heart through his movies. Please, somehow get your hands on Madea Goes to Jail and watch the heck out of that thing.

Chuck Norris

Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun (my heroes, who constantly point me back to God and keep me from committing suicide)

Jon Bellion

Tim Tebow "I'm not perfect. I'm never going to be. And that's the great thing about living the Christian life and trying to live by faith, is you're trying to get better every day. You're trying to improve."

Alice Cooper "Drinking beer is easy. Trashing your hotel room is easy. But being a Christian, that's a tough call. That's rebellion." (I didn’t really know who this was, but I included him because he looks HARDCORE)

FRED ROGERS only the nicest man ever

Paul Walker "I'm a Christian now. The things that drove me crazy growing up was how everyone works at fault-finding with different religions. The people I don't understand are atheists. I go surfing and snow boarding and I'm always around nature. I look at everything and think, 'Who couldn't believe there's a God? Is all this a mistake?' It just blows me away."

Elijah Wood (MY BAE) "I believe in the Bible and that's a good thing – I believe more in a personal relationship with God than having to go through priests. I believe in prayer, yes, and that it is listened to." (I DIDN’T KNOW MY BAE WAS A CHRISTIAN BEFORE THIS - I KNEW THAT HE WAS RAISED ONE BUT I KEPT SEARCHING FOR IF HE STILL BELIEVED IT AND I COULDN’T FIND IT)

Louis Zamperini (my personal hero - he’s even more important to me than Twenty One Pilots)

Jesse Owens!

STEVE CARELL, ONLY THE FUNNIEST MAN EVER

STEPH CURRY

Tim Hawkins. A Christian comedian (ugh i just got really sad because my first crush loved Tim Hawkins ugh i miss that boy why’d he have to move away)

Martin Luther. Yup, the one who basically said to the Roman Catholic church “you’re ridiculous about what you believe one must need to do for salvation, and this is why, and suck it”. The Roman Catholic church basically made a ton of rules that they told people they had to follow in order to be saved, but they were all simply things that they put in place to keep their power on the people. Martin Luther said the truth of what is in the Bible, that the key to salvation is simple; faith in Jesus. That’s it.

Corrie Ten Boom. She saved I don’t even know how many lives in WWII.

Martin Luther King Jr. He was a Baptist minister as well as, obviously, the amazing civil rights KING that he was

C.S. Lewis. He wrote The Chronicles of Narnia, among lots of other books.

J.R.R. Tolkien. He wrote the Lord of The Rings series, among other things. He was friends with C.S. Lewis (p.s. J.R.R. and C.S. share my Meyers Briggs type! INFP. I’m very proud of this.)

I want to make a part two as well, one with links to videos of people testifying about their faith so you can hear it directly from them.

Hi! I was just wondering what your opinion on Taylor Swift is? You seem to really like her music but lately I've noticed you reblogging some critiques of her as well? This isn't meant to come across accusatory - just curious! xx

Sorry, I don’t know when you sent this because I don’t checkmy inbox on tumblr mobile so I’m really sorry if I’m answering this super late!Also it’s okay dw

I’m gonna give you a really long answer because I don’tthink I’ve ever talked about this before and I’m waiting for something to loadlol

Up until the 1989 era I really loved and supported her, anddefended her from any criticism. She’d helped me a lot and I thought she was agreat role model. Any feud with a celeb was one-sided in my opinion – she wascompletely innocent. As such, I don’t really have a problem with her earlysongs. I know some fans think Better Than Revenge was problematic but I don’treally feel that way personally, because at the time I heard it/related to it Isupported Taylor 100% and it was just a sassy break-up song. I get how it canbe perceived as problematic, but 2010-me never saw it that way so I stillnaturally have the same impression of the song since I don’t listen to it asmuch now.

I think I started to get a more well-rounded (? (Sceptical?))view of Taylor when she started following fans on tumblr in the Red/1989 era,because I didn’t think it was fair that she seemed to pick favourites and yetloyal fans who didn’t have dedicated blogs were ignored. This is obviously allpersonal to me, and I know there are lots of different views on this. Imo itkinda seemed like a bit of a popularity contest – “you worship me the most so I’llgive you my attention in return”. I still liked Taylor, though, and when thewhole Bad Blood/Katy Perry drama kicked off I was on Taylor’s side.

I don’t really know what came next for me: Hiddleswift or Kimyeor the “squad”. At first, the squad was all about girl power to me and I lovedit, like in the Red era when Taylor was friends with non-supermodels like Lordeand Lena Dunham and it seemed genuine. A few months ago, though, I read anarticle with Chloe Moretz saying she’d been invited to join the squad (but didn’t)and idk I started to believe that maybe there was something a little manufacturedabout it. It seemed like a clique instead of a genuine, happened-by-chance friendshipgroup. As for Hiddleswift, I never believed that, and I reckon that that waswhen the cracks in my support for Taylor really started to show lol. In myopinion, it was a massive publicity stunt and so obviously fake (to me) and Ijust … couldn’t believe that she thought she was getting away with it. Maybe itwas real, I don’t know for sure and I doubt anyone ever will, but imo it wasoverexposure and made me question how much of Taylor’s life was real and howmuch was a big publicity stunt. I think it was about that time that I startedto follow an anti-Taylor blog (not a hate blog, just a blog with a shadier viewon her than I had) because they had some of the same views. I looked back oneverything in a new light – maybe Taylor really did “steal” Selena away fromDemi Lovato; maybe Katy wasn’t that bad and Taylor used her innocent image as away to play the victim; maybe the infamous phone call with Joe Jonas wasactually cut short by Taylor and was something she used. Idk. It doesn’t reallymatter because this is all personal to me and I’m not trying to make astatement or anything.Don’t even get me started on Kimye, either. In my honest opinion, they allacted like high school teenagers instead of grown adults, but I think Taylorreally dug a hole and that’s the first time I remember actually thinking shewas a snake. I also (imo) don’t think it was right for her to complain about a “narrative”when she herself built an entire career on writing songs about exes and was theone to draw out the 2009 “imma let you finish” drama instead of moving on. Thatwhole situation didn’t sit right with me and I started to see her with lessbiased eyes. I may be completely wrong, and it’s really not my place to makeany kind of judgement on Taylor as a person considering I don’t know her, butas a fan I just started to doubt her persona a little.

I still love her music, and I’d buy any album she released,but I think I’ve got a bit more cynical now (for good or bad) so I don’t reallysupport her as much as I used to.

This has been such a long reply omg but I just want to saynow that I don’t hate her (in case anyone replies thinking I do) and I’m still afan of her music. These are my personal feelings and that’s all

Thank you for asking!!!!!
