calling it right now that season 3 starts like this
#so confused about people saying the season finale feels like the end because to me it didn't at all#there's like 5-10 issues immediately set up for another season#they're in a happy place at this point because they've both realized their love is bigger than anything else#and makes it worth working on their problems together#the problems are still very much there#both of them have deep self esteem/self loathing issues that haven't been resolved in the week since ed woke up#ed doesn't know about stede's trauma#they haven't talked through anything#and they'll be shit at starting/running an inn lmao it's not gonna go well#and those are just some of the internal issues#then there's prince ricky and all the authorities that would very much like to get their hands on both blackbeard and stede bonnet#because stede just full-on kept using his government name after faking his death. nice one#the crew are not “gone” they're more like off to college for a bit but will probably run into trouble immediately#again because while they escaped to the ship they didn't eliminate the threat (the british empire)#it's not a forever goodbye#ok this got super long already anyway i have a whole fic marinading in my brain until i've finished these 4 wips i'm in the middle of ✌️#hope we get a renewal soon because i want to see the rest of their story!!#ofmd s2 spoilers#ofmd s2#ofmd#our flag means death

Someone just tagged one of my tweedy selfies with "dark academia is problematic" and I'm just dying over here, especially since I associate my look more with riding horses than archiving at the Mütter Museum.
Anyway, "vintage style, not vintage values."
#half of Dark Academia aesthetic posts are of men in waistcoats that make them look like Olive Garden waiters#I am sartorially offended to be confused for that aesthetic lol#this is what happens when an aesthetic movement is built upon pop culture cliches with no understanding of fashion or history#I chuckle at folks who imagine me on some archeological adventure#but what's really in my imagination is being called out to help with lambing season#“dark academia” vibe to me is that shitty couple who cosplay 24/7 as 1920s British Egyptologists#excuse me but I'm larping as a 1930s British country vet

honestly total drama introducing international contestants in later seasons with not much explanation (alejandro, anne maria, sugar, jasmine) was so funny like yeah none of these guys are canadian but we're letting this guy compete because he's pretty, this girl because we need that jersey shore rep, this girl because this show is lacking in southern charm and this girl because canada just LOVES australia
#australia and canada are so tethered though like our cartoon children's shows are so goated compared to american and british counterparts...#on a side note as an australian growing up I literally thought Stoked was an australian tv show set on the sunshine coast or something#only to get older and realise its set in CANADA#what business does a tv show about surfing have being set in canada#do you guys even have waves like that#and then the whole character of bridgette and geoff??? is surfer culture really a big thing in canada?? this has always confused me#I thought it would be too cold. or at least too cold compared to america and australia

I have mixed emotions right now because my dash is devided into two groups:
those who say it has been worse and we have gotten up before. How Fred has time to turn things around since it took Todt years. How we should trust in Charles and his capabilities to win. "Forza Ferrari Sempre" people
those who doompost and say we are screwed. Who think Charles should just leave Ferrari and go fight for the WDC in another team. Where he could truly show what he can do. People who don't trust Fred nor Ferrari anymore. "Forza Charles" people
And I, personally, have no idea how to feel. Because yes. I would absolutely LOVE to see Charles bring the Championship back to Maranello. Afterall he IS the Il Predestinato. It would remake history in the most beautiful way.
At the same time, I want Charles to win. And currently, Ferrari isn't the place for that. I see Lestappen Gate 2024 posts and adore the idea. That's where he could truly shine and prove himself. I LOVE the idea and would support Charles through it all.
Point is: I don't know which one is better... I would love to be able to say I have faith in Ferrari, be a "Forza Ferrari Sempre" person. But I fear I have no "Forza Ferrari's" left in me. You will always see me "Forza Charles" here but my opinion on Ferrari is just all over the place right now. And I hate it.
I want to believe. I want to have faith. I want to trust in them and the project. But how much longer can I do this? These weekends when everything seems to go to hell and Charles is more frustrated than anyone.
Honestly, I have no idea.
#sorry about the partial doomposting#and the rant#had to get it off my chest#there's just been so many different views and im so confused and unsure and everything#so here is my way of getting it out#sorry again#lestappen#charles leclerc#scuderia ferrari#formula 1#f1#british gp 2024#rant post

Genderqueer culture is being pissed at terfs for stealing our colours (sorry if this is dour)
June 22, 2024.
#genderqueer#genderqueer culture#terf mention#transphobia#if you’re confused about this submission: there was once a suffragette flag that looked very similar to the modern genderqueer flag#at some point TERFs accused the designer of the second flag of plagiarizing the suffragettes as part of the ~female-erasing trans agenda~#and started using the suffragette colors (purple white and green; identical to our colors) to signify their transphobic feminism#from what i understand it’s mostly british TERFs who also often prefer to call themselves gender critical (GC)#it’s not that huge a phenomenon but if you see someone with what looks like a genderqueer flag saying confusingly TERFy things#it might not be an accident

WAIT
since vincent and lovely are leaving the house, that means vincent is giving up his title as prince
which means that he won’t be referred to as “vampire prince” in his playlist anymore
what is it getting changed to?
i can't see him reverting back to "flirty vampire"
will he just be "vampire lover"?
OR will we get a new title for vincent
#we'll have to refer to porter as the “british vampire” so we don't get them confused#redacted asmr#redacted audio#redactedverse#redacted solaire clan#redacted vampires#redacted lovely#redacted vincent

If Eddie were to have a boyfriend before Buck it should still be played by Oliver Stark and the only people who don't see the similarities are Eddie and, or course, Buck.
#9-1-1 on abc#911 abc#911 on abc#eddie diaz#evan 'buck' buckley#buddie#buck x eddie#gay eddie diaz#and this other boyfriend would also have Oliver's personality as well lol#Eddie's dating an evil british princess everyone confuses for Buck

I really do hope Glammike is canon because I just love the sheer dichotomy of the fatherly, superstar sweet Glamreddy, and the inferentially angsty teen energy that Michael brings Like, idk when these sorts of situations would pop up, but I find it really funny if like, idk, FazEnt just found Burntrap or smth in the ruins, and just decided to make him a new spooky character to pander for the teens? (this all is going somewhere, I swear) speaking of swearing, like, what if his area is right next to freddy's green room or something, and they know that they're Michael and William Afton, so then when they pass eachother in Rockstar Row, its like "Father." "Michael." "......So are ya leavin?? Get the F--- outta my sight-" "-gasp- William!" "???? What???" "There are children around!" And then William has a flashback to a memory where Michael is in Fredbear's or something, and he stubs his toe and he swears like a sailor and then he just goes "Hypocrite." listen its so stupid I love it okay
#fnaf#michael afton#five nights at freddy’s#glammike#glamrock freddy#william afton#burntrap#fnaf security breach#this kinda coincides with my au where peepaw gets refurbished and is put as a greeter animatronic in RockRow lol#I do really hope glammike is canon because I want to see a joke about GFreddy having a British accent and him swearing as a teen#I'm a simple man what can I say#LMAO do you think GlamFred shows Gregory himself as a cool emo teen and then Gregory is so confused on how he got from that to THAT

i lost my funny and silly bone guys, i just wanna post jokey posts but i'm honestly being affected really badly by all of the shit going on in this fandom, it's really hard for me to just "ignore" the racist and anti black fans bc it's like every other day i'm learning/seeing that fans are anti black and like i don't know how to actually exist in this fandom with all of this shit happening like i'm not joking when i say my interest has completely decreased bc of it and with the latest shit aka the fans thinking it's normal to go to a fucking plantation and take a white funko pop of a character who was a plantation owner and do a cute lil photoshoot, my interest is like almost at zero.....
part of me feels like i'm being dramatic but lol idk this whole thing cuts too close to the bone, like, my GREAT grandma was born on a plantation in the south this shit is too close to me and for these ppl it's all just joke idk guys tell me if im taking it too seriously
i only started interacting with the fandom like 2 months ago and i'm already so tired this isn't good st all, how is this fandom this terrible for black fans, why can't ppl just be normal :(
#i love iwtv but staying in this fandom doesn't feel worth it#i don't feel like being in this fandom is good for my mental health lol#cant lie i'm already reverting back to my old fandom atm#i've been in a bad state all day#also for anyone confused i'm british american? or whatever idk#me yapping#probably won't be online like i'm genuinely so ?!? upset idk#it's just building in me rn

Okay so remember when I was defending Tom on the fact that a seismogram is a thing? So uh. I genuinely searched what it is, it's the thing that seismographs make. It's like the reading, not the device
Seismographs are not handhelds. And a seismogram basically working like a seismograph but under a different name is a bit iffy but it's a play that was fully improvised. Most of the things I overanalyzed are for the heehees and the hahas only
But anyways, what do y'all imagine Janae's seismogram looks like?
#shoot from the hip#sfth#shootimpro#the neighbour's under the bed#the neighbor's under the bed#(EDITED BECAUSE MY GRAMMAR IS FUCKED)#(+ me being extremely confused to why my tags are wrong sometimes. it's because I didn't spell neighbour britishly)#(sorry y'all I'm not British 🏃💨)

Very disappointed to see that Grian's new episode wasn't about violent American western expansion.

Okay...I have a serious question to ask my non UK followers. This is not judgemental or anything but curiosity.
Do you think British men are gay acting even when they are straight?
I have seen so many comments about Alex's camp behaviour down to him being 'British' or 'European'. As a Brit I am genuinely perplexed as to where this notion comes from. So, answers on a postcard please...
#honestly British men do not act gay#unless they're gay#don't confuse good manners with campness they are completely different#katty's anthropological studies#alex turner
