#because it’s like talking to a brick fucking wall

[starryylies]

Simon with a small bubbly reader, like total opposite from Si being big and cold. And she wears like all pink and is very girly and the rest of the team can't believe their together

OPPOSITES ATTRACT

Simon Riley wasn’t really a big fan of colours, or people.

You on the other hand were both.

He doesn’t understand how you can always be so pink for every occasion. Like if he didn’t know you he’d probably think you’re advertising the Barbie movie.

When he first met you he thought you were ‘faking’ your nice attitude but he was proven wrong when you stepped up to help him during a rough patch after a difficult deployment, breaking through his walls brick by brick

Thought you were the happiest person until he saw you crumble while you talked about your past relationships and how badly you were treated and hurt.

This lead to him being angered and sending out a few of his men to do a background check up on your exes who soon won’t be seeing light above the ground anymore

Loves how you can be yourself around him and display your femininity without being judged.

Let’s you paint his nails pink and wears them to work next day because he knows it’s your way of claiming him.

Wearing it to work attracts a lot of attention though, a few people snicker in the background about how stupid he’s looking

While the rest are more astonished to know that their lieutenant is actually dating someone because why there is no other explanation to why he’d have his fingernails painted pink with heart nail-art on the middle finger.

Soap is one of the many people who tries his best to get tea from Simon during break time,

“So ya got y’rself a missus and didn’ even tell yr’ best friend ‘bout it?

Simon just laughs it off and ends the conversation.

Johnny being the persistent penguin he is, decides to show up at Simon’s house bringing Gaz and price as leverage

They’re shocked to see a real not imaginary girl open the door, such a pretty girl at that too

Simon hears the chatter outside and walks up to see if everything’s okay, only to see his team standing on his front porch with a biscuit box to gift in johnnys hand.

You invite them in and serve them snacks while they just stare at the bleak contrast between you and Simon.

You’re the definition of sunshine and well, he‘s just simon

Soap and gaz tease simon on how he managed to ‘bag Such a pretty thing”

While Simon just gives them a glare that says “fuck off”

While price asks for your muffin recipe.

After the boys leave, simon cuddles you right that night an mumbles how he’s so lucky to have you and how much he loves you.

(He got affected by what soap and gaz said about you and how you’re out of his league.)

This shit is on the fucking brain rn and I’m about to throw myself into a brick wall because of it so enjoy my brainrot

He’d say “hey mama” as he hugs you from behind, putting his hands on your belly

He’d also do the thing where he’d gently lift your belly for you as he stands behind you to give your back a break for a bit

Him asking Bryan to take your maternity picture because he only trusts him to do it right

He would for sure make sure you always have ice water, any snacks, extra pillows and blankets, and anything else you’d want

You have to tell him to quit going crazy buying baby stuff from bass pro and Harley Davidson because you’re worried the kid won’t even get to wear half the stuff since they’ll grow so fast

Definitely plays them the drum track he just recorded (both in and out of utero)

As soon as the kid take an interest in toys, he’s buying them a little toy fishing pole, the drum kit comes later

This one is based off of something I had when I was a kid, but he’d get them a little battery powered motorcycle when they’re 3-5 (I had a pink one with purple saddle bags. Loved that shit)

If he has a son, he’s showing them how to be a good man and person. Sometimes doing matching outfits because he thinks it’s fun. Definitely eggs him on to be a menace sometimes, but only when it’s something lighthearted

If he has a daughter, he’s showing her how a man should act and teaching her how to stand up for herself and defend herself if need be. He wants to know that his babygirl won’t take shit from anyone. He’d also match his fits to hers sometimes too, he’d also be invested in playing Barbie’s with her

He absolutely loves to curl up on the couch or in bed with you and the babe, definitely a favorite past time for him

He’s a very involved parent, from where he does travel a lot being in the band, when he is home and can be there, he is there. Is also very attentive and remembers everything that his kid(s) love

He for sure raises them on the music he listens to

Also doesn’t like the modern day cartoons so he’s putting on stuff he watched as a kid. Ngl I feel like he’d be big on max and ruby but that’s just a vibe I get

Also makes sure that they talk to their uncles regularly, he wants the guys to be involved in his kid’s/kids’ life/lives

And if he’s been away and comes back, he will make you relax and not do anything because you deserve a break so he can handle it all. He loves the person that gave him children, so he always reminds you of that.

There is no “I can’t, I’m watching the kids tonight” if someone asks him to do something. It’s “I can’t tonight, I’m chilling out with the kids. We’re going to watch a movie, play some games and make a mashed potato mountain with Dino nuggets so mama can enjoy her night out”

He also teaches his kids that it’s okay to show emotion and to feel things

He supports anything they do (as long as it’s legal), he just wants them to be happy

The thing that annoys me about this safety pin/blue bracelet movement is that it’s the same performative activism that happened in 2020. The mentality that lead to posting a black square and quite literally nothing else. I check a box and say “I’m not racist. I voted for Kamala.” When in actuality it does little to nothing to dismantle white supremacy, the very thing that got us here in the first place.

Why do you as a white woman feel the need to signal to strangers in public that you’re not like them? Shouldn’t that be apparent from the way you walk and talk? If you’re active in your community and in those spaces where oppression looms the most then people will know you’re “safe.” I promise no minority gives a shit who you voted for when they’re in public. Why not instead do the work of calling out white supremacy when you see it? Having those difficult conversations with your family members and friends. Calling shit out when you hear it and see it around. “I tried! It’s falling on deaf ears. It’s exhausting.” Imagine having that same conversation over and over and over again for centuries. What would the world be like if activists stopped having conversations because people wouldn’t listen? If it were easy everyone would do it. Stand up. Use your voice and get active in your community. Examine yourself, your bias, your privilege and begin the hard work of actually dismantling white supremacist ideology in your brain and community. And do it again. And again. And again.

it is always nice to find another abuse survivor who also felt like ford's story resonated with them. it's nice to feel like there's other people who know what I'm talking about

Pissed my family off yesterday when I told them that Luigi Mangione should absolutely walk away a free man and having to explain that there is blood on that CEO’s hands for the thousands of insurance claims that were denied and ended in people dying… Like, I cannot believe this had to be explained.

[local-limebug]

jason todd has so many underrated canon love interests. essence, isabel, artemis, and rose are all characters i love with him. like those are good ships. why is everyone ignoring them?

[soullessjack]

this isnt rlly a serious post more so than a thought I need to verbalize but like. there’s an INSANE difference between the fandom being like “hey what if jack was actually his age and got to be a little normal” vs y’all treating a grown ass man like he has to cover his ears when someone swears or sleep with a nightlight on because he’s afraid of the dark, and throwing the P word around to anyone who thinks he’s attractive. one of these things is not like the other.

[kuromi-hoemie]

so like..

is the idea that as a compromise to only having to toggle off tumblr live once a month, you now have this permanent tumblr live icon regardless of ur setting choice stuck to the bottom in the middle of everything in the hopes that i click on it accidentally anyways even though it's clear i don't want it or? where is the NO 100% STOP GIVING ME THIS SHIT I DON'T ACCEPT YOUR POLICIES AND LITERALLY COULD NOT CARE LESS ABOUT TUMBLR LIVE AND WILL NEVER BE INTERESTED IN THIS TYPE OF FEATURE OR FORMAT.

@zingring @photomatt @humans idk how many feedback requests people have to cut tumblr for "no" to just be a valid response here. ppl aren't dumb and see u inching over the line trying to force this on them despite the snooze choice.

what, are there so many ppl snoozing and such a low adoption rate that you know you need to trick users into using it so you can "make number go up" or? 🙄

[firestorm09890]

you know it's kind of fascinating how easy it is to flanderize lexaeus. he's like the least fleshed out original character outside of the dark road upperclassmen. he barely has anything there to flanderize. and yet people manage it

[mint-corset]

I feel violence in my very bones this evening.

[reiverreturns]

nothing like interacting with people to make you fucking loathe being a people manager ✨

[mare-the-silly-scroingle]

sometimes i wonder if my mutuals notice me slipping away and i wonder if they know that it’s not intentional and i wonder if they still resent me anyway

[ruvviks]

wouldn't 'twirl' be a better word than 'whirl'? I think it sounds cute for a snowflake to 'twirl' in the wind, like twirling a frilly skirt. I'm not a native english speaker either, but it sounds much better to me than whirl even though there's a two letter difference lol

OHHH YEAS i like that one!! unfortunately it doesn't fit the vibe of the scene i'm trying to write but thank you for the suggestion :]

[raigash]

Does anyone else have that fight with their brain where it’s like

Me: this phrase/word conveys that message. It works. Just use that

Brain: no >:(

Me: why the fuck NOT

Brain: wrong vibe >:(

Me: okay but like…do you have a replacement to offer?

Brain: No >:(

Me: then…for the sake of writing the things we want to write…can we please just…use that

Brain: NO! >:(

Me, exhausted: why

Brain: wrong vibe >:(

Or is it just me because I swear to fucking god I have this fight every three hours

"oooh you should join debate club" "ooo I love debate so much there's nothing better than a good debate" bro shut the FUCK up
