because sometimes there are invisible tests and invisible rules and you're just supposed to ... know the rule. someone you thought of as a friend asks you for book recommendations, so you give her a list of like 30 books, each with a brief blurb and why you like it. later, you find out she screenshotted the list and send it out to a group chat with the note: what an absolute freak can you believe this. you saw the responses: emojis where people are rolling over laughing. too much and obsessive and actually kind of creepy in the comments. you thought you'd been doing the right thing. she'd asked, right? an invisible rule: this is what happens when you get too excited.

you aren't supposed to laugh at your own jokes, so you don't, but then you're too serious. you're not supposed to be too loud, but then people say you're too quiet. you aren't supposed to get passionate about things, but then you're shy, boring. you aren't supposed to talk too much, but then people are mad when you're not good at replying.

you fold yourself into a prettier paper crane. since you never know what is "selfish" and what is "charity," you give yourself over, fully. you'd rather be empty and over-generous - you'd rather eat your own boundaries than have even one person believe that you're mean. since you don't know what the thing is that will make them hate you, you simply scrub yourself clean of any form of roughness. if you are perfect and smiling and funny, they can love you. if you are always there for them and never admit what's happening and never mention your past and never make them uncomfortable - you can make up for it. you can earn it.

don't fuck up. they're all testing you, always. they're tolerating you. whatever secret club happened, over a summer somewhere - during some activity you didn't get to attend - everyone else just... figured it out. like they got some kind of award or examination that allowed them to know how-to-be-normal. how to fit. and for the rest of your life, you've been playing catch-up. you've been trying to prove that - haha! you get it! that the joke they're telling, the people they are, the manual they got- yeah, you've totally read it.

if you can just divide yourself in two - the lovable one, and the one that is you - you can do this. you can walk the line. they can laugh and accept you. if you are always-balanced, never burdensome, a delight to have in class, champagne and glittering and never gawky or florescent or god-forbid cringe: you can get away with it.

you stare at your therapist, whom you can make jokes with, and who laughs at your jokes, because you are so fucking good at people-pleasing. you smile at her, and she asks you how you're doing, and you automatically say i'm good, thanks, how are you? while the answer swims somewhere in your little lizard brain:

how long have you been doing this now? mastering the art of your body and mind like you're piloting a puppet. has it worked? what do you mean that all you feel is... just exhausted. pick yourself up, the tightrope has no net. after all, you're cheating, somehow, but nobody seems to know you actually flunked the test. it's working!

aren't you happy yet?

Why does it look like vale & Uccio are going to be hauling ass to organize a 3 day camp to get the kids un marcmarquez'd. Bez & Pecco have truly suffered this weekend.

i’m gonna be honest if they try to put on a “how to ignore marc marquez’s mind games” class they are going to be speaking from a place of zero practical experience. vale rather famously lost the idgaf war around the same time he lost that last world championship and UCCIO lost that particular battle in 2013 when marc was literally not allowed to legally drink in the united states. sparkling juice on the podium hard cut to uccio mad as hell. so if they try and do a workshop on it i think it’s just gonna be a bunch of italian men kicking rocks like this

idk if this is just me but i do think it makes some sense why mike and harvey’s relationship crumbles apart so fast after harvey (basically) breaks mike out of prison. at this point, mike and harvey both got slapped with the fact that there was a genuine consequence to their actions—there was a rock bottom. and yet because harvey is harvey, he’s going to want to cling onto mike however he can. it’s almost obsessive, the way he tries (and tries. and tries. and you can’t blame him, really. he just saw his best friend (and also the love of his life, let’s be fucking real) go to prison. he realized that there is something he can’t win, not when it comes to the force that is mike ross). and for mike, it makes some sense why he wants to run far away—especially if we think about mike’s relationship with trevor (someone he really did come quite close to going to prison for). it makes some sense why he would want to run, because god, he’d lost everything before and he can’t keep losing more. which i think is what makes mike’s quiet distance from harvey that much more depressing: for harvey, he thinks clinging onto mike as tight as he can will fix things again, and for mike, he thinks leaving harvey will be the only thing that can fix things. i’m going to eat glass

So I've read and re-read and re-read the whole mirror scene in passion manhwa and some novel excerpts found on tktk. And let me tell you!! The webtoon doesn't do it justice!! You can see that taeui is against it yet some of his expressions and dialogues say the opposite! And then there's illay with his one track mind😒😒 (finding out he doesn't have that much game was hilarious though)

BUT CAN WE HAVE SOME INSIGHT ON WHY TAEUI KEEPS ALLOWING ILLAY TO DO ASNHE WISHES!! (I mean I already know BUT STILL!!)

Atleast illay cleaned him up and did bare minimum 😑😑

Some of those panels deserved to eb in horror genre😶‍🌫️😶‍🌫️

THIS PANEL BELOW MAKES ME WANT TO COMMIT BECAUSE THEY'RE SO MUCH IN LOVE BUT DONT KNOW HOW TO TALK!!!

Hey y'all! Work's been more stressful than usual (I'm covering for a coworker's vacation) and I'd love to hear some funny work stories if y'all have any you'd like to share. I'll start it off with some of the weirdest contractor interactions I've ever had: - the contractor who never went anywhere without his cat carrier full of live ferrets - the contractor who, every single time he called me, said "aren't you proud of me? You're proud of me, right? I'm your best contractor?" (he was not) - another time I was covering for a coworker and so handling paperwork for contractors I usually don't work with, and one of them spent a long time on the phone trying to persuade me to move into his cabin in the woods. His methods of persuasion were twofold: he explained how cool his truck is in intense detail (I do not care about trucks) and he bragged about how many laws he was breaking while contracting with the company I work for. I, of course, told my boss, because a lot of the laws he was breaking were basic safety things???? But him trying to brag about breaking laws to the person who handles the paperwork he just admitted to falsifying was hilarious to me

Warning: Spoilers and mentions of SA

People who say that the scene where Zhenya (the top) rapes Taekjoo (the bottom and hero of the story) comes out of nowhere makes me laugh. Too shocking in a pinch, each to their own sensitivity, but came out of nowhere?

Since the beginning, Zhenya has:

tried to kill Taekjoo multiple times

ripped off someone's jaw with the strength of his hands just because

sexually assaulted Taekjoo TWICE

sexually harassed him several times

Not to mention that Taekjoo has already been sexually assaulted twice by other men too (at least they tried).

Needless to say, it doesn't come out of nowhere. It even makes perfect sense for the universe and the characters.

What amazes me is that someone went this far in reading to say that now it's nonsense.

Zhenya. is. crazy.

We've known it from the start, he doesn't hide it. It is even described as a nuclear bomb.

Their first meeting already sets the tone: after having escaped death several times in less than an hour (because of men sent by Zhenya), having seen someone have their eyes pushed into their sockets until death, Taekjoo is immediately overpowered by Zhenya who tears off his shirt (leaving him half naked) and handcuffs him to a railing.
