The number of times I reach for, "I'll make a complicated baking project!!!!" because I know it'll take time and concentration (i.e., I can't focus on anything beyond the mechanical for a bit) and comes with a positive output that people who aren't me appreciate (i.e., desserts) makes me think I need other coping mechanisms.....and also that I might somehow understand those people who work out a lot.

To make up for the fact that I didn’t do anything for them for Christmas, here’s another fake shoujo magazine chapter cover :]

pose ref ↓

HAHA ITS FROM ITAKISS!!!! Naoki and kotoko are nothing like the blorbs but I thought this pose worked for that scene (it’s apart of a much large page split into two images, but I decided to crop it cause the rest of it doesn’t matter tbh)

Does anyone have any good home decorating/organizing resources for someone who has a lot of books and craft supplies and lives the impermanent life of a student? I'm pretty terrible at organizing and making things look cohesive, and at this point I'm willing to settle for "functional" even if I can't have "pretty." I think at this point my problem is more "how to store things in a way that's not just throwing things into a cardboard box" than it is "how to get rid of stuff you don't want." I'm beginning to suspect I just need to buy more bookshelves and a pegboard and store all my craft supplies that way.

It has been brought to my attention by several people that there's a planned attack where a group of people plan on sending actual photos of gore in ask boxes of fandom accounts (like mine)

I really appreciate those that warned me, and even though I know it's most likely just people trying to stir up the public by making them panic, I'm just going to turn off media in asks for now

Asks will still remain open, anonymous or not, and any suspicious asks will get immediately reported (if I do see any)

It's really a shame it's come to this honestly, so I hope that nothing like this will happen again in the long run - until then, stay safe everybody!

Why use a screen shot from the cringey woodland nymph video? Surely this would have been a perfect opportunity to present a united front with a recent and never seen before family portrait. They (and their PR team) MUST be aware of the rumours swirling around, perhaps Kate refused to participate in a photo session & obviously they couldn’t risk Photoshop-gate again. Then there is this sudden dash to Norfolk and no real excuse as to why they have bailed on the Buckingham Palace pre-Christmas lunch. Personally I think there is a massive rift between Will & Kate and Camilla, in addition to the very obvious deep seated problems in the Wales’ marriage. Surely this facade cannot continue for much longer (but I have been saying that since March lol)

Agree with the massive rift between Will, Kate, and Camilla. We know about the Wales marriage problems, but I’m curious as to what exactly is going on with Camilla (and Charles) and the Wales. I feel Charles threw Andrew under the bus with the Chinese spy as a distraction. I believe Charles was already informed of this years ago.

I used to think the PR folks were really stupid. But this is too in-your-face to be anything but taunting. ...Especially on the heels of everything that came before.

At some point, the truth will come out.

Why couldn't they take a nice photo before or after the Christmas Carol service? Send like that would be a perfect time and seeing to get a Christmasy family photo. No, instead of something new, let's remind everyone of the overly produced saccharine video.

they didn't even try. like at all.

This is an out take from their cringy video of a few months ago. Wow. They are leaned away from each other to the point it is two subject groups in the image instead of one.

I’m not so much concerned with their marriage, because that’s all assumption. But what I am concerned about is what do they give back to their society? They are next in line to the throne, but want complete privacy. They need to look at the other royal families and get advice. They are so out of touch it is unreal.

They give nothing. They do nothing. Kate going to the Wimbledon Final, or some showy christmas concert is not giving back to the people. They are both as lazy as fuck. If she has had cancer, why hasn't she thanked her medical team, why hasn't she attended some cancer support groups, why hasn't she engaged with cancer charities, why hasn't she visited hospitals and talked to cancer sufferers? It is appalling that she has done nothing like this. it's crazy how in the same breath they insist they are just like regular people, they ask to get all the privacy they need and year long time off work with pay and perks, they are so tone deaf yet pretend to understand regular people... it's even worse for Kate because she was regular person, all it took is 14 years in wealth and she already lost touch..

That was the most depressing Christmas card I’ve seen in ages. A screenshot from their video last summer. It was so… beige. And not attending the annual luncheon definitely raised my eyebrow. 🤨

At the core of this is that William is alone- no wife, no father, no mother, and no sibling. His extended family tolerates him because he holds the purse strings but there is no love there. Who is going to help this man during his reign? There is a void there. A power vacuum invites nefarious people to fill it. The government better sideline the family now to protect the British people and their state secrets.

The Andrew spy scandal is nothing compared to what is coming with William. He, like Andrew, is too stupid and arrogant to know when he is being played and by whom. Stop relying on the royals to be some sort of political tool for soft diplomacy now. William will somehow entangle himself in nonsense with a hostile actor, of he hasn't already.

even charles has people he can trust, in the rf's own way; princess anne, camilla, prince edward & sophie. but whiskers has alienated everybody.

What a pointless charade, there must be journalists bursting to come out with the truth. Just get divorced already. Life is too short to be this miserable and it must be impacting on the kids.

this card is SAD.

last year, right before the drama became public, K and W skipped C and C Christmas luncheon (yes, this one that they all used to attend) and C and C skipped K’s Christmas carols.

so something happened before Christmas of last year that started this war between heir and King.

Could have been the coronation stunt, but what if it actually related to something revealed in Spare, released Jan 2023. Followed by drama between king and heir all year.

for example, Kate Middleton's “last-minute visit to the 2023 Chelsea Flower Show overshadowed King Charles's pre-planned visit with Queen Camilla.”

and then whatever had been stagnant between K and W boiled over and he treated her like crap in public all year until christmas 2023 and then we never saw her for months.

Within two hours of KP announcing Kate's “planned abdominal surgery" on Jan. 17, BP announced that the King would be undergoing surgery for an enlarged prostate. She was in hospital for 10-13 days, both released same day. No one ever saw her come or go or any of her family visit, but W visited for ten minutes once. we did see Camilla visiting C and Charles leaving.

lots of weirdness, the press wants everyone looking to California, but the problem is actually in the UK.

It had to be an old picture. A new one is totally out of the question. She wouldn’t have it. He wouldn’t have it. The list of reasons are endless now

Now we know, there's something definitely amiss with this pair. No doubt about it. 

The release of the card coincided with them skipping Chuck and Cams lunch. Sounds like they waited to release it to distract that they didn’t go and would highlight the rift between C&c and W&K.

I must say I found it weird it came out the day they didn’t go to the meal. Certianly feels like Some tensions in the family .
