#chewing drywall my dudes

[aletterinthenameofsanity]

Does it ever hit you that for Charles Rowland, death was kinder than life? That he never felt something kind until the night he died? And that when he did finally die, when the peaceful, kind glow of Death arrived, Charles sacrificed Heaven for the boy who had crawled out of Hell, the boy who was the first person to be kind to him? Do you ever want to chew some drywall?

hey thanks for tagging! @russenoire

fine. he will be perceived.

[rindomness]

rin i am so deeply unwell about cecil palmer.

his mother didn't talk to him except to prophesise his death or remind him he doesn't exist.

his dad made him climb into a tree and get eaten by the smiling god??

he doesn't remember his childhood.

he used to go back to his abandoned childhood home and sleep on the sofa. it's probably demolished now.

he can't go to the grocery store anymore because he's afraid of auctions. and for good reason !!

he was raised by his sister and she always resented him for it.

he describes his family history as a ghost story. his childhood was a ghost story. his life is a ghost story.

he keeps having to watch other versions of himself die.

he didn't choose to be the voice of night vale, it was chosen for him whether he liked it or not. he probably can't quit or resign, he'll probably be the voice until he dies.

leonard burton died in his arms. his interns keep dying or leaving or growing older than him and moving on with their lives while he stays where he is.

his main coping mechanism is Denial and drinking to forget

he dies in a tree every year???? interesting lifestyle choice

terrible things keep happening and he can't do anything about it except narrate !!

also a mirror is gonna kill him. how is he supposed to deal with that. can he not go to walmart?? cause they sell mirrors at walmart !! does he have to call the store before coming in like "hiiii can u pls cover your mirrors or put them away". does carlos do most of the shopping just in case? then what did he do before carlos? does he have mirrors on his car? do his friends cover their mirrors when they know he's coming over? do all reflective surfaces make him nervous? what is it like knowing that such an everyday item can kill you? does he wake up every morning and wonder if today is the day?

SORRY FOR THIS you just reminded me of 171 and that episode makes me feral

DUDE ME TOO WE CAN BE UNWELL ABOUT THIS WEIRD GUY TOGETHER

the tree thing makes me unhinged like WHAT is going ON with that. if it is the smiling god that brings up even more questions. mostly questions about the smiling god honestly!

his entire family is a wreck i really do hope that part of him and Abby talking again was them, like. talking about that a little bit because could you IMAGINE being in that position. like. what do you even do about that

him in 171 being like did your mother tell you she was an oracle before she left like WAUGH. we know that his position as the Voice was prophesied his mom was an oracle was she the one who told him? if so was that the only interaction they had that wasn't her telling him he was going to die/didn't exist or fucking hiding from him? considering his Entire familial situation it's a wonder he's as functional as he is.

the mirrors i want to scream about the mirrors ok . ok. like. YEAH does it apply to every reflective surface or just mirrors? going grocery shopping at all has to be a nightmare yeah no kidding. you know those mirrors sometimes in the drink aisle? how the fuck do you deal with that? do you just shut your eyes? do you just avoid it entirely? I know carlos doesnt do all their shopping bc cecil keeps reading off requests for him to pick stuff up from the store in texts so like How did he deal with that. do night vale stores just not have mirrors?

driving must be a nightmare too you're right i didn't even think about that before holy shit. Can he drive? How? You need to use your mirrors while you're driving. does he walk everywhere? does he have like a bike? a scooter even? i think he can drive bc of first date but like that must be So stressful. I'm just. so. so mentally ill about the mirrors. he was so fucking stressed out by eunomia's visor it made me stressed out how do you lead a functioning life that way

in conclusion thank you and i wanna chew electrical wires about this man

[notcaycepollard]

took my adhd meds and spent two hours diligently doing the wrong thing (reading the comments in ao3 bookmarks of my fic) here are some of my favourites:

a worryingly domestic character study

five fics in a row bookmarked by the same user all with the comment BRO

well hello there new hyperfixation

Twink Bucky getting on

Seb like “well shit I never say no to playing a role of a sad gay twink, i guess”

the Narrative.

Multi organism steve [I’m sorry bookmarker I know you meant multi orgasm because that is in fact the fic but this is making me laugh so much]

yes its just porn but the characterization is, really really remarkably good

bro when will it be my chance to have what they have 💔💔💔

fucking and fisting him into oblivion but make it cute

low key heartbreaking

VERY RELATABLE.

CHEWING ROCKS !! EATING DRYWALL !!!!! i’m sittin here CHEESIN

sambucky is so good because I like enemies to lovers but also big beefy men being lovers [me too, bookmarker, me too]

the BALLS on this mf for his FIRST INSTINCT to be WAXPLAY

the repression was not repressing

steves genetically engineered super-soldier-ness vs Sam with a Gun. 0:2

good for them

Maybe the real Soviet sex drugs were the friend(s) we made along the way.

sam and bucky in their get along t-shirt, except the t-shirt is in fact a luxury wine cabin

"dude. you moved in. you met my family. we discussed getting a cat" "IDK MAN I THOUGHT IT WAS SOME KIND OF INTRICATE RITUALS BRO SHIT"

I have a type and that type is "looks like he'd like it if you slapped him in the face during sex"

NO REYLO [this fic] ONE REYLO

art museums art museums art museums!

Get printed. Get tattooed.

Ain’t queer if we don’t touch, Bucky says, moments before fisting him

this hurt me in ways i didn't know i could be hurt

This author is like a masterclass in how to write karmically-satisfying villain porn.

Yikes [the correct response to this fic]

do threesomes fix your toxic friendships this fic posits: maybe

love to read about a guy ruining everything in his life

When noncayce is "back on their bullshit" it is the very best bullshit

this fic literally changed me. I think my cells have mutated

guess ill die huh

guess ill die pt 2

Absolutely filthy but in a sweet way.

(I can’t post the simply-complimentary comments because I would die of embarrassment but what a nice two hours to accidentally spend)

[100vern]

how would you rank each of bts’ long(ish) hair? who’s your fave to least?

oh ho ho as a long hair truther this question is right up my alley

ahem:

1. yoongi. i have yet to recover from d-day era yoongi with his long hair. it was everything i ever could've asked for. it was done specifically for me. the stylists were like "jewel what do you want more than anything in the whole world" and did it. no one is EVER topping long hair yoongi.

2. jimin. did you expect this one? well. you should've, bc something in my brain chemistry shifted when he dropped this picture. i think about it at least once a week. i need him to do this for real and not be a coward and cut the extensions.

3. seokjin. i know his hair hasn't been, like, properly long, but it's been long for him and it is soooooooo. it's SOOOOOOO. he is soooooooo. ptd las vegas era seokjin you will always be famous and detrimental to my mental health.

4. jungkook. i don't even wanna talk abt this one, man. i just can't. if i start thinking about jungkook again i'm not gonna recover and i need to make it through 2025 somehow. i can't go back there again.

5. hobi. lolla hobi had me in a CHOKEHOLD. i was down horrendously bad. between the long hair and the painted nails i chewed through at least three sheets of drywall. this man is so fine.

6. taehyung. taehyung looks good in any and everything so this one is not really fair. like, "oh great, there goes taehyung looking hot again," you know? it's just another day that ends in -y. like i can't stand this guy it must be nice to constantly serve like this.

7. namjoon. i feel like he doesn't usually wear his hair long? our dude likes a haircut. i'm glad he knows what he likes, but i also know he hated his wp2020 hair and so i've decided he doesn't actually know anything. anyway, i think this is the longest hair we've seen on him and it looks so good???

[catboymoments]

ur fluffy soudanidai hcs are so cute waaa 💕💕

would u perhaps share if u have fluffy komahina headcanons also? :>

Dude do not get me started on komahina I will not be able to stop they make me so fucking insane I start chewing on drywall /pos you might have to actually give me a moment to collect my thoughts

to be updated each week! or whenever i have the time y'know. when it's done i'll throw it all together on spotify and 8tracks

---

15) Billy Gibson: I Just Don't Care That Much // Matt Maeson runner-up: Meds // Placebo

smthn i really like about gibson--which is easy to forget, what with [waves hands at hickey's whole thing]--is that he's the one to start the mutiny. seriously, go back and watch the beginning of ep7-- he's the first to express Doubt in the captains' plans, specifically doubting that fairholme's party is coming back with help and that the natives would be friendly. over the course of the episode (and ep8) it spirals into a bigger thing, more of an active mutiny than simply taking supplies and striking off on their own in order to move faster, but gibson was still the spark here. hickey does not have the monopoly on bastard actions in that relationship and it makes them more interesting.

14) Tom Hartnell: Like a River Runs // Bleachers runner-up: Ashes // The Longest Johns

i got really attached to tom hartnell when i saw that poll that was like "which of the characters would you most like to work with" and i realized that i've actually worked with several tom hartnells before, which is to say, young well-meaning dudes who fuck up on occasion but earnestly try to make it better once they realize they've fucked up, and i'm like yeah :) i'll have tom hartnell on a job site any day. pick up a coffee for him on break when it's cold. swap the aux cord in the work van. he'd tease me for being old but also listen to my advice. look when i went back to trade school i was in a class of almost entirely dudes straight outta twelfth grade and i wound up adopting most of them as honorary baby brothers ok???? don't @ me

13) Henry Collins: Overboard // Johnny Manchild & the Poor Bastards runner-up: Sea Song (You Waded Out) // Apocalyptica

rip henry foster collins, dead 1848 of The Years Start Comin' And They Don't Stop Comin'

i didn't notice until i rewatched with subtitles that he's the one who ordered billy orren up into the rigging immediately before he died :') gosh i love it when this show hurts me and hurts me and hurts me

12) George Hodgson: Iscariot // The Vassar Devils runner-up: Delusional // Charlie Allen

oh hodgson you're so. you're so unsuited for command T_T what are you DOING out here, you should be back in england playing the clavier and making delightfully eccentric drawing-room small talk. he's basically one of [these birds] and what i wanna know is who thought it'd be a good idea to bring that to the arctic

11) John Bridgens: Our Time Is Short // Gang of Youths runner-up: Genesis // Amelia Day

[riffles angrily through all 5 of the somft romantic songs i own] dave k if you don't make at least one of these nerds listen to punk i'm gonna be in trouble

10) Solomon Tozer: Death of Me // Red runner-up: Believe // The Bravery

just so you know i'm having a completely normal one and i haven't chewed even a little bit of drywall over tozer's playlist

my initial music choice for him was just the entire discography of Rise Against. then the official playlist dropped and i blacked out and woke up surrounded by Flesh by Simon Curtis and Blood in the Cut by K.Flay and other such things and also i was wearing my leather gloves for some reason? so narrowing down my options here was somewhat of a trial

9) John Irving: Tell Me How It Ends // David Wirsig runner-up: I'll Be Good // Jaymes Young

the narrator of Tell Me How It Ends is a dying man who's struggled with faith all his life and the song is addressed to god [UPSIDE DOWN MELTING SMILEY FACE] ANYWAY HOW BOUT THIS HIGH STRUNG SELF HATING LIL MISS ANGER ISSUES, i want to poke him with a stick until he has some sort of breakdown <3

8) Thomas Blanky: Frozen Pines // Lord Huron runner-up: Heavy Rescue // Doomtree

give it up for the guy i have zero ideas for! i mean i love him don't get me wrong, i just don't know re: music. shrug emoji

7) Thomas Jopson: The Rockrose and the Thistle // The Amazing Devil runner-up: Seamstress // Dessa

i had 2 thoughts when Davechella was first announced and one of them was that modern jop only listens to death metal. "turmoil on the inside needn't show on the out," he says, putting on his extremely high end headphones and making his ears bleed

to which hodgson is like "why spend $2k on headphones just to listen to music where you can't understand the words?" (<- also spent $2k on headphones but sensibly listens to opera) and nedward is like "you're gonna be stone deaf by age forty :/"

to which jopson is like "hah, as if i have to worry about living that long" before remembering that normal people tend to take those jokes poorly I'M NOT PROJECTING YOU'RE PROJECTING

ANYway im not cool enough for dave's jop (i can't be in the club i'll be saying shit like perchance & thrice) but my contributions are more about the show than the modern AU

6) Edward Little: Bad Things // Social Animals runner-up: Downhill // Lincoln

[cracks open my Depression Jams playlist like a tepid beer!]

i do find it pretty funny that one of the Edward Little Certified Sad™ images for shitposts etc is actually the bit from ep3 right after franklin kicks the bucket bc like. that's not ned being sad that's ned looking at fitzj like Oh God He's Having A Whole Ass Breakdown Here. Oh God Please Get Me Out Of This Room Before He Starts Sobbing What Do I Do Oh God We Are So Cooked

Chauncey is relieved.

[thatscarletflycatcher]

Having both De Gaulle's and Churchill's account (this was one of my grandpa's most prized possessions and I got it after he died) of WWII around is pretty interesting.

On one hand, because De Gaulle is a much more pleasant and engaging storyteller. Mind you, that doesn't mean he's more accurate or anything like that, but he works the concept of a memoir as "the things that happened as I remember them, and the impressions I got from them". Churchill is doing a heavy, heavy chronicle, full of transcripts of telegrams and letters and communications and maps every 2 paragraphs or so, which might be very useful to the amateur historian, but that makes the experience of reading it as a narrative akin to chewing drywall (hence why I have never really read it before; just read a bit here and there about specific events).

The fun part here is the contrast when the perspectives collide.

In early June 1940, De Gaulle is made secretary of the Ministry of Defense in France and sent by the president on a mission to London, where he meets Churchill for the first time:

"Mr. Churchill received me at Downing Street. It was the first time I had a meeting with him. The impression I got of him reaffirmed my conviction that, led by such a fighter, Great Britain would never bend. Mr. Churchill seemed to be prepared for the most difficult enterprises, as long as they also were grandiose ones. The certainty of his judgement, his vast culture, the knowledge he had of most of the matter regarding the countries and men he dealt with, and at last, his passion for the specific problems relating to war unfolded with ease and pleasure. Above all he was made, by virtue of his character, to act, risk, and play his role decidedly and without hesitation. In one word, I found him decided in his position as guide and chief. Such were my first impressions. What followed did nothing but confirm them, revealing to me as well his eloquence and the profit he derived from it. Whatever his audience was -multitude, assembly, council, even a single listener-, whatever the spot -in front of the microphone, at the tribune, at table, or at his desk-, the original, poetic, and moving torrent of his ideas, arguments, and feelings gave him an almost infallible ascendancy within the dramatic environment in which the poor world panted. Able politician that he was, he used that angelic and diabolical gift to stir the passivity of the English character, as much as to impress the spirit of the foreigners. Even the humor with which he seasoned his gestures and phrases, and the way in which he sometimes used politeness and sometimes anger, showed to which point he dominated the terrible game in which he was immersed. The harsh and painful incidents that happened several times between us, caused by the friction of tempers, the opposition of certain interests of our respective countries, and of the abuses that England committed to the detriment of a wounded France, influenced afterwards my attitudes towards the Prime Minister, but in no way did they affect my opinion of his qualities. Winston Churchill always appeared to me, from the beginning to the end of this big drama, as the great champion of a great enterprise, and the great maker of a great History.

Churchill does not record this meeting at all. He cannot have just "forgotten" or dismissed it. You don't forget meeting a 6'5 dude of extremely idiosyncratic posture and manner, specially if you had to deal with him on a regular basis afterwards. The painfully slow and detailed telling of his memoirs don't allow for "it was insignificant enough".

The first mention we get from Churchill is something the like of "I went to Paris to see Reynaud, and there was a very tall fellow walking the gardens".

The fourth time Churchill visited France in 1940 is at a meeting and dinner they both attended. De Gaulle recalls an encouraging comment Churchill directed at Petain, then this:

"Mr. Churchill showed himself imperturbable, full of drive, but keeping a polite reserve in front of the cornered french; he was already overcome -and perhaps not without a certain secret satisfaction- by the terrible and magnificent prospect of an England abandoned to its fate at the island, England that he was to guide to salvation through effort... After three hours of discussion that led nowhere, we sat to dinner. I was by the side of Mr. Churchill. Our conversation strengthened the trust I had in his will. And him, in turn, I am certain, drew the conclusion that De Gaulle, though without material resources, was not a less resolute man."

Meanwhile, Churchill:

"After an interval, we were led to the castle, where we found Reynaud, mariscal Pétain, general Weygand, air general Vuillemin and some others, including the relatively young general De Gaulle, who had just been made sub-secretary of the Ministry of National Defense... Around ten o'clock everyone took their places at table. I sat by the right of Reynaud; by my right was general De Gaulle."

That's it. That's all he had to say.

Don't get me wrong, De Gaulle's text is full of elegant darts at Churchill's manipulative, petty and sly doings and sayings, he's not like, The VictimTM here. It's just very funny that De Gaulle goes "Churchill was a great chief of war, because he was determined and master of himself and also a manipulative backstabber", and then Churchill goes "De Gaulle who? I have no idea who this tall and not very young person whom I needed and used and tried to get rid of and couldn't and who irritated me and annoyed me to no end is".

Ok I’m seeing all the halsin posts and I’ve been playing bg3 for a minute and I can’t find him! I’ve got all the main party members and now I’m just bee boping around the first area before I proceed to up my level and I can’t find Halsin anywhere!

Does he not join until I advance to the next section or am I looking in the wrong places? I feel like I’m missing out, I wanna play with bear daddy too

Have you gone to the goblin camp? If you're struggling to find him, here's your path

Go to where Minthara is, like that area. There are two ways in, I'm assuming you take the path up the stairs by where Dror Ragzlin is. So go that way, past the empty bookshelf to the ladder. Go up the ladder, kill the three goblins guarding the bottom, and then turn left and open the door.

That'll take you to the worg pens. Kill the children (THEYRE GONNA RAT YOU OUT JUST KILL THEM), the worg handlers, and whoever that dude butchering those meat pieces is. There is a bear in the pen next to the worgs who will help you fight as long as you've either already killed Priestess Gut, Dror Ragzlin, and Minthara OR you don't throw rocks at him for Astarion's approval.

Once you've defeated the goblins, the bear will turn into a man. Halsin will thank you, you can say, "YOURE the healer?" which I always picture is said with breathless wonder like oh okay well I saw those crusty druids and you were NOT what I was imagining oh my GOD you're so TALL- and he's so self-depreciating like "no need to use honorifics when you saved my life" and tragically your next question can't be an offer to undress him LARIAN CALL ME RIGHT NOW I JUST WANT TO TALK-

Anyway he'll invite you to join him in the grove and then shift into rat form and vanish. Go back to the grove, listen to him yell at Khaga (assuming you didn't kill her), and then join him at the tiefling party where you can insinuate HEAVILY you'd like to take him into a nearby bush and [redact] him into the dirt. He'll decline but he does this thing with his hand that makes me immediately start chewing on the drywall.

In the morning he asks to join you on your quest into the shadowlands and he's yours! Finish his quest, and then you get this banger of a line, "But perhaps theres more that I want," once you've concluded Act 2!

[cyanide-latte]

Ohh man... tfw you watch a video of someone explaining why they support something and they actually bring up a point you've not heard other people make yet and it's so good...

And then they bitch about people pushing politics in media and say "keep ur politics and agendas OUT of the media!!!"

Dude. Like bruh... You were so close. Your video was going so well.

I've never heard anyone who defends physical media and actually going to stores to buy what you want or going to the movies to see them or something talk about the value added time, that you're giving value to the things you love! Almost nobody online ever brings that up when they defend their support of physical media, at least not that I've seen and certainly not in the acknowledgement that you place value and create memories around these things, these places and people, these experiences when you do them. That's value added time and almost nobody acknowledges that, or rarely in a direct way if they do.

"everything being streamed takes away the value you put on the experience"

YOU WERE SO CLOSE YOU WERE RIGHT THERE

And then you said that last bit. It's adjacent to the booktok brainrot of "keep politics out of books! I don't read for politics I read to escape! This is my escapism there's no politics in what I read!" The very human act of creation is political, the same way that being able to read and being able to have media comprehension of any level is itself a political act.

My guy. My guy you MAKE MUSIC. THAT ITSELF IS ALMOST ALWAYS POLITICAL IN SOME WAY. HOW IS THIS YOUR TAKE? I'M BAFFLED.

"stop pushing your agendas and your politics in the movies and shows you make", cool, that alone tells me a lot about you. I'm gonna go chew drywall, Jesus fuck.
