hey btw if you're in the USA at  2:20 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Oct. 4, they're testing the emergency broadcast system. your phone is probably going to make a really loud noise, even if it's on silent. there's a backup date on the 11th if they need to postpone it.
if you're not in a safe situation and have an extra phone, you should turn that phone completely off beforehand.
additionally, if you're like me, and are easily startled; i recommend treating it like a party. have a countdown or something. be surrounded by your loved ones. take the actions you personally need to take to make yourself safe.
i have already seen mockery towards any person who feels nervous about this. for the record, it completely, completely valid to have "emergency broadcast sounds" be an anxiety trigger. do not let other people make fun of you for that. emergency sounds are legitimately engineered to make us take action; those of us with high levels of anxiety and/or neurodivergence are already pre-disposed to have a Bad Time. sometimes it is best to acknowledge that the situation will be triggering for some, and to prepare for that; rather than just saying "well that's stupid, it's just a test."
"loud scary sound time" isn't like, my favorite thing, but we can at least try to prevent some additional anxiety by preparing for it. maybe get yourself a cake? noise cancelling headphones? the new hozier album? whatever helps. love u, hope you're okay. we are gonna ride it out together.

i hate how my particular investment in LT/these characters/history in general will have me sounding like some sort of "retvrn" bozo. or, maybe i just hate that saying "i wish things were more sincere again and that sometimes things that were older were in fact better" has been................... idek how to finish this thought Guys i'm getting overly emotional about LT kiddie records from the '50s. i'm getting emotional about how merchandising for these characters has sucked for the last 45+ years. i do not mean to sound like some sort of obnoxious "old stuff had SOUL to it new stuff is BAD we must RETURN" bozo. but guys. look at this

the appeal.. the whimsy
WHERE DID WE GO WRONG!!!!!!!!!

i legitimately get upset if i think about this for too long. what are we doing man

#FOAMING AT THE MOUTH. WHY HAVE WE BECOME SO AFRAID OF WHIMSY AND SINCERITY AND MAYBE ACCIDENTALLY COMING OFF AS GOOFY IN THE PROCESS#i will so take the slight warm corniness of a 'Bozo approved' Daffy Duck kiddie record over. over. i don't know#i get mad when people dunk on something for being corny because it's old or vice versa but when i rant about these things i end up sounding#like some gross traditionalist and i don't wanna come off as that either 💔#it makes me sad. and needlessly offended#and maybe that's why i have so many disparities with many modern LT fans and attitudes towards the franchise. but when i word them i feel#like i sound pretentious...... everyone likes different things. but i just. IDK!!!#a really good means of comparison for this phenomenon is comparing LT coloring books from the 30s/40s to the 90s#(i did this a few weeks ago and thought i was gonna pop a blood vessel for the reasons above)#i miss earnest i miss warmth i miss whimsy < ok grandma let's get you to bed#this isn't to say everything needs to be cloying. huge reason why i love LT is because it's the exact opposite. but it's earnest in what#it's doing. idk it's late i'm rambling and Charged#also the old stuff being records isnt really a commentary i was just going down a rabbit hole of records and getting emotional at how we#don't get stuff like this anymore and it isn't limited to just LT#'capitalism back in MY day was ARTFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!'#can i just like work in merchandising or something so i can design Good Stuff. i'm constantly coming up with merchandising ideas with my#coworkers. kids deserve better. we deserve better. i deserve better!!!!!#ugh. too passionate for my own good#i was a begrudging graphic design major (not my major of choice) but i do end up realizing just how passionate i am about graphic design#when i make posts like this#this is honestly why warmth is my number one aim in art anymore i just want art to feel human. i hope my art feels human to you#the sterile corporateness of the modern examples genuinely makes me so so so sad

“white mourning.”
#‘‘A white mourning. A modern death. Divorce or something similar. All you can do is put more distance between you & him. make him smaller.’’#jean is a very easy character to hate if you know nothing about him. & you know what they say. easy target doesn’t make for a good practice#judit literally compares harry to intellectually disabled man yet you don’t see ppl hating her because she is outwardly nice.#she’s polite yes but she doesn’t care as much as jean cares for harry#he is not perfect. he is mean. but loyal. if he truly didn't care he wouldn't hab come back to martinaise & coulda just reported harry’s as#he put up with du bois’ bullshit for years and built a toxic (totally straight) relationship with him yet always comes back.#he says he will leave you in the village to die but please understand harry isn't exactly a great person. especially pre-bender hdb.#planned a make up joke & put on a wig for hdb even tho he wasn’t the who started the whole fiasco#you can hate him all you want for leaving harry before & during tribunal but how could he have foreseen all this bullshit would have happen#his second leaving is kinda bullshit writing but#jv is dealing with his own demons too. clinical depression. partner almost died. job is shit. case spiraling out control#i do not blame the DE staff either. sometimes shit just happens. not everything needs a grand explanation.#but it definitely coulda been handled better. but i understand. resources were sparse.#i relate to ​jv. as someone with temper issues & attention problems i have to remove myself from the scene or i'll say shit i'd regret late#my man is having the worst week of his life. leave him alone.#kim is great but have u heard of a man who thinks he's old when he is only 30 & luvs horses & his commie boyfriend that he's divorcin' soon#disco elysium#de fanart#jean vicquemare#disco elysium fanart#jean heron vicquemare#jean posting#illustration#de#artists on tumblr#I WANTED TO DRAW THIS FOR MONTHSSS YOU COULDN'T IMAGINE.

n*loth not being able to bag anyone over the (human term) age of 25-30 at most is the only logical and real conclusion to me because it can be just explained away as him wanting to prove and control everything and anyone (Cus he's a man!) but being stuck in that demographic because his unbearable and vile personality is a force that nobody can look past once they've outgrown the possible fear and idolization period of anyone but also n*loth in particular.
#text#i think even younger ones that possess the same nasty traits can be slammed back 'In their place' (in his mind) by him just bc his -#- abilities and power alone (alt. name the factors that make him 'Cool') that dumbs them down insanely in comparison#maybe by this i mean like; ild*ri. despite the animosity she could still feel very foolish and is conscious of her wuss-ness#if that makes sense#cause no matter the disrespect anyone might have for an older capable person the reality is still reality#tbh i just think he doesn't like to sweat it much and still aims for the younger ones bc it's easier than it would be for someone that's -#- 30+ years old#and once he's proven his point he doesn't find any merit in sticking with older ones cause their interests or anything they offer -#- don't matter to or interest Him personally#i think an older demographic is just more boring to him and he would rather spend his time being metaphorically sucked off for his greats -#- by someone that already finds themselves 'lesser' than him and always will for a long time#than someone that is defiant of that fact#basically the more power imbalance the better#in his mind there will always be one unless he certainly knows someone is his equal (or better than him) but he likes the add-on of an -#- age difference too#keeps it in a safe zone with less problems for him#sorry for spitting again my brain just started machine-gunning thoughts for no reason#also i said before that he's an innocence fan. might not be a total puritan but there's something there#it's kinda like him not wanting to be with a dusty ''OLD'' person that's seen a lot anyway#i'm like barely able to hold myself back from opening my mouth to mention t*lvas where i'm making a point about n*loth's brain where he -#- isn't even needed to prove it#but like#him voicing dislike of n*loth general nauseating character and actions but still sucking up to him while n*loth can probably feel -#- that dislike anyway is cute to me i like to view it as an object being thrown into the wall over and over#where n*loth is proving his own worth to other people by drilling their brains out with proof. not that he needs to#but he would like that to be perfected a 100%#and t*lvas is capable of being molded into that state ....... probably#silusvesuisuis you didnot just confess to wanting to see t*lvas be slammed into a wall you fucked up demented beast you're sick#actually can't believe i forgot to mention this but he's literally so immature idk what he has anything in common with actual mature people

Someday you will find a fraction (or more!!) of what dnp have!! It might be a weird road but you will get there!! I met my fiancée during the pandemic at uni in the oddest way.
We were both assigned to a dorm that has shared bathrooms and the school moved us both over to the apartment-ones instead. THEN I got moved from my original room to the dorm with her ex. THEN some dumbass thought it would be smart to deep-fry an egg in the shell (idk lmao). She started a fire, we all evacuated, and fiancée and I met in the parking lot. Went back home and told her ex that “I want that one” and she helped orchestrate us hanging out. And now we’ve been living together for 4 years!
Life may throw love at you in the strangest of circumstances but it will come around :))
Aww thank you so much for the kind words! I know amazing & happy relationships are out there for me and it's just a matter of time ☺️ I know I'm young and there's plenty of life to live so I'm hopeful. my post was more just about how- idk, emotional? dan and phil make me lol been watching them since I was like 10/11/12 and seeing them grow and watching them Now, clearly very happy with their lives and with each other just makes me wish I had that type of domestic bliss with another man Already, but alas I'll have to wait and find someone to build that with 😔✊

can we add poddpapang to guypepper? then I'll die the happiest old man in the world⚰
OH YOU KNOW GUYPEPPER IS GONNA BE RIGHT NEXT TO PODDPAPANG IN OUR GMMTV 2025 MANIFESTATION SESSIONS
Tumblr media
THE WAY FOR THIS QUADRANGULATION OF UNDERRATED OLD MEN TO HAPPEN HAS ALREADY BEEN PAVED AND BY GOD WE WILL SELF ACTUALIZE THE REST OF IT INTO BEING THROUGH THE SHEER POWER OF CLOWNERY AND DELUSION
(i mean listen. i know that TECHNICALLY trinwave in hidden agenda and saifahname in dangerous romance didn’t actually really canonically happen BUT ALSO THEY DID IN MY HEART OKAY)
WE'RE GETTING PODDPAPANG AS A MAIN PAIRING AND GUYPEPPER AS A SIDE ONE FOR GMMTV 2025 AND THEN WE WILL GET PODDPEPPER NEXT YEAR AND AFTER THAT NOTHING CAN STOP THEM FROM GIVING US A BL WITH THE FOUR OF THEM ALL TOGETHER THIS IS THE REALITY WE'RE CREATING

Y'know yeah I think Medic and Heavy are gay on purpose. I don't think it's a fanon thing. I think Valve intended them to be queer. Yeah

Human pet guy showed up on my dash again (via puppy play sick skateboard tricks post) and I decided to look at what he was up to these days, and
what do you mean he was born in 1995?
#kai rambles#human pet guy#on one hand it kinda makes sense in that he was like 22 or something when he made the original human pet post#like if he was a 22 year old inexperienced with pet play i can somewhat see how you could end up making that post#maybe you could get your wires that tangled up about it if you've never actually done it#and then like you finally get to try it and suddenly all of that bullshit is dispelled#also you can be a pretentious little dumb dumb about it when you're 22 you know? let me write as if im always talking down to someone#on the other hand#the guy still believes it#he's still salty about people not getting where he was coming from#he still thinks he's right#and like maybe that's because he's still never got to do pet play in real life but that feels like a mean assumption#and a little lazy and bad faith you know?#especially considering he believes even weirder things now like that gen z boys who voted for harris should now be concubines for the#''victors of the election'' and that this is how it's always been until CHRISTIANITY TAUGHT PEOPLE BETTER#absolutely insane thing to say and honestly i could break down that entire post because boy howdy is it a ride#also he believes something to do with trump experimenting with ways to trap people in crystals?#like that's a facebook ass conspiracy#which hence would imply he's older#the way he talks also just reminds me of jordan peterson#but jordan peterson isn't only 5 years older than me#id assumed he was older because of his cadence and vernacular#but no#he's not even 30#im just rambling in the tags here because i just. like i oft talk in a kinda pretentious manner so i know that's not a thing unique to older#folk and that this shouldn't be tripping me up so much but it's just like.#he was younger than me when he made the original human pet guy post#that's wild#you know who he reminds me of?#whatifalthist on youtube
