#apologies if i sound annoying

I feel like everyone here has read the book and then watched the film but if you watched the movie, liked the characters and have not read the book yet, I would really recommend you to read it if and when you can. Like I know life is busy and our brains can be so fucking annoying with reading at times but still, if you can - give Red White and Royal Blue by Casey Mcquistin a chance once :")
The movie covered as much as it could and not to sound like one of those "the book is better" people but the book will definitely give you more insight into Alex and Henry - their life, their siblings, and their relationship with their parents.

sometimes when i walk around our pool-turned-wetlands-habitat i'll gently poke the frogs. for green frogs, they have a jump & dive sort of reflex, where if they notice the shadow of a possible predator they'll automatically jump into water and come out like five minutes later. it's really cool to watch and sometimes they make a funny noise to alert other frogs. i barely ever do this so it wont stress them out too much, but they're also much less prone to stress than other species of frogs, iirc. i wouldnt be doing the same to bullfrogs, for example.
but today when i was examining the mosses and poking the occasional frog, one of them noticed the stick (i barely ever use my bare hands to handle amphibians. glove gang for life) but instead of jumping she just. turned around and bit it. then she jumped and bit it again. as i started pulling the stick back she was jumping after it. she wasn't attempting to eat it, just voicing her annoyance. eventually she just stopped, but whenever i put the stick around her she just turned in annoyance and gave it a quick snap
needless to say i apologized for inconveniencing her and moved on. that was the guardian frog. she was telling me it was time to stop.

Thinking about baby patty 20 dead 40 wounded
Tumblr media
#stranger things#patty newby#(through tears) noo ahah dont think about how patty had no friends in hawkins growing up#and how the closest thing to a friend wouldve been bob vs rhe way bob’s annoyed w her initially re: his radio stuff/the whole fucked up#newby damily dynamic as a whole/the emotional distance that Does exist between bob and patty as a result of mr newbys favouritism#towards bob. do NOT think about how patty is the same age as s4 el vs how el’s had friends since s1#like imagine if el didnt meet max or the party until season 4…. and the fact that patty’s first opening scene/one of the very first things#we’re told about her (and henry) is that she’s lonely… stop stop im already dead#:((((((((#patty i would been your friend its ok#(through tears): when do you guys think baby patty stopped trying to play with bob/when do you guys think that the whole family dynamic#really started to squash any like. proper close bonding yk like they dont hate eachother in tfs by any means but its like#there’s definitely a Distance there in a lot of ways & definitely resent etc you can feel under the surface (although in the end that def#improves) but i just. dont look at me im thinking about baby patty trying to ppay with bob but then going off to sit alone#(through tears and comically loud sobbing sounds) do you guys think that bob blamed patty for his mom leaving the same way mr newby blamed#her for his wife leaving? do you guys think that’s why bob didnt protect/defend her until the end of the play? and even then he didnt DO it#so much as say that he SHOULD have…..#(through even more tears) do NOT think about how quickly patty accepted mr newbys apology and even insisted initially that he has nothing to#apologize for despite the way hes treated her vs the fact that patty so clearly just wants to be loved#do not think about patty’s dad being the principal vs her still getting bullied all the time and then getting in trouble for defending#herself/mocking walter… mr newby when i fucking catch you!!!!!!!#pattyposting

there's a point at which someone's fear of being a dick wraps back around to them just being a dick anyways
#im side-eyeing those who reblogged my post on ethnocentrism and missed the point#but im also thinking about the tags i saw on being too scared to comment on fic#the first is being ~too scared~ to write cultures other than their own#(1. my point was people should be learning *as they watch the show* not just when they write#2. i just. jfC. stop saying youre too scared to *try* to write from another culture/POV different from your own as tho its a *good* thing)#the second is just annoying/frustrating because being too scared to participate in community is how community's die#i dont want to be dismissive of cancel culture because i do know the stories and there is always indv cases of a person ready to be a dick#but like. its just *not* a thing most people have to be worried about. very likely you're just not big enough to have that concern.#anxiety's no joke but like. u dont just accept the anxiety as the excuse. you have to challenge it. i've been there but u cant feed it.#and i dont want to sound dismissive of that anxiety but im really frustrated with seeing people throw that excuse around#without considering how their fear-based attitudes/actions come off in turn#such as not showing fandom creatives any appreciation for fear of saying the ~wrong~ thing#which comes off as creatives' stuff seeming to be ignored completely or otherwise very discouraging silence#when the only rule for tags/comments is to treat others the way you wish to be treated and apologize if you accidentally tread a toe#and being more worried about accidentally stepping on a theoretical persons toe than interested in showing actual people gratitude#like? pretty sure im not the only one side-eyeing that like ''have u really considered this feeling/logic????''#again: its not saying that anxiety isnt a dick or easy to dismiss but i am saying maybe challenge it or at least reflect on it#i just#blahh#the commenting thing is way more mild than the other but tags arent for that conversation and i need a much better brain space for that one

You’re pretty. Not in a “OMG YOU’RE SO HOT AIDJJWISNFND”, but more like “You’re pretty, but not THAT kind of pretty”.
I cannot tell if that is meant to be an insult or a compliment….
So for both our sakes, I’ll take it as a compliment, and say;
Thank you….
The exit is right the way you came from =)

axel who isn't into dancing and probably isn't really all that good at it (with how she was the only one not doing it compared to everyone else in that one scene lmaoo). and then there's julia who probably has all the popular dances memorized and follows all the trends of it on tiktok.

fucking hell
#ooookay tw for suicide in the tags. just putting that out there#ive been desperately trying to fix things and relationships in the chip fandom#especially with the influx of people breaking off contact with gremlin. theres been a lot of people who've cut her off#i even got in contact with one of her victims through the chip discord. i helped him with his ''experiences with gremlin/apology'' tweet#<- which is up btw. i quote retweeted it on priv but i might repost it here#but i just feel like my efforts are just completely useless#this mindset was what pushed me to defend my friends throughout 2022. but at the same time its how i got into the shit with ''yuzu''#(quotes cuz yuzu was a sockpuppet. gremlin really thought she could chase me out of the fandom after that shit)#im just too fucking hopeful and too fucking nice#i held hope that there'd be a day where the fandom would be nice again - despite me wanting to kill myself **partially** thanks to gremlin#and in february i **had** to leave if i didnt wanna be dead. im (kinda. emphasis on kinda) back in the fandom now but still#im terrified of talking to people directly about this shit. its taken me a lot for me to open up about this shit to other people privately#especially to the folks in the chip discord. it felt so relieving when i knew i was safe to rant about her and what she did to everyone#ughhhh im yapping about nothing. sorry i sound really annoying about this shit LOL#but i just wanted to chuck my feelings out into the void. its what i do#val being a pissbaby

I wish there was a socially acceptable way to say "I accept your apology, but that does not make what you did okay."

Sometimes, I worry that people over diagnosis did in themselves, I thought I had did for years and years and then it turned out it was only psychosis, but my time existing in did discord servers and tumblrs made me continue convincing myself over and over that I was correct in my own diagnosis, now I’m not saying that’s you at all, I’m just saying it might be wise to think things over before assigning labels, I know plenty of people that being in communities helped! And I know people who being in communities really hurt, and , honestly, after years and years of giving myself various diagnosis, and then going into places and talking to people I would just convince myself I had them further until proven otherwise, and, I just feel like , everyone on the internet when it comes to diagnosis, should think it over, for a good long time before looking too far into it, the more you learn about a diagnosis the more you can convince yourself you have it. I’m honestly not sure where I’m going with this message, I suppose I’m just kind of. Saying things for saying things,
i understand that, and that is already what i am doing. i am not one to slap a lebel on myself and call it a day

My father sometimes gripes at me when he gets reflexive scripted politeness from me instead of sincere engagement which on the one hand I understand why he'd feel like that, but also, you know, you taught me this. You taught me the overly formal politeness. You could've taught me something else and then I'd do something else.

Ok but... if you’re a rude little piece of shit you should not be allowed to use public transport
Like today the guy in front of me just slammed his seat-backrest back at max speed.
Worse: It slammed right into my knee. My knee I’m already having trouble and pains with (idk what it is, doctors are trying to diagnose it).
So I let out a yelp of pain. Not a really loud one but yeah. And I start rubbing my knee to soothe my pain.
And the guy? Turns back around to me, grimaces and says: “What the hell’s wrong with you?!”
