Villains discussing ages

All: *Discussing all their ages calmly*

All: *Turns to Hook who is silently reading*

Cruella: "Hey Hook! How old are you?"

Hook: *Looks up from his book* "What?"

Hades: "She asked how old are you Hook."

Hook: "Why?"

Cruella: "Just answer to question!"

Hook: "Okay okay! Uhhh- I'm like... Oh god, maybe 210? 215? Honestly I lost count after 150." *Goes back to reading his book*

All: *Silence*

Jafar: "... What?"

"They don't really talk. To each other, or to us. See, as a family, we never really talked. So when I married a man who also was unable to talk to me, I didn't recognize the danger in that. I never felt the danger at all. Until rather than speaking to me in words and sentences, he spoke to me in empty dark eyes, and a rough touch, in order to convey the words he couldn't say. We didn't really talk. I try to do my best to not be like him, and them. But I'm still learning. How to speak what's on my mind without burying it, how to tell the honest truth whether it hurts someone else or not. I'm still learning. But I like to think that talking sometimes, whether it makes sense or not. Is improvement. It is isn't it? To try to speak even when your tongue is caught up in a mess. Even when your thoughts say things that scare you, it's improvement right? To talk anyway? I like to think so. See, we never really talked. So I'm still learning how to. Forgive me, I'm still learning."

Ravenclaw : THEORY IS IMPORTANT Slytherin : Bro it's a game. I don't want to have to solve all of the universe's questions in order to win.

I immediately swallow it whole. (I don't know how to handle a changing situation and I am very hungry)

mid-conversation I toss a pistol onto the table not to suggest or imply anything but just to change the situation a little

One conversation can fix a lot of things.

(I think, personally, Newt is the only one in the maze who can deal with Gally.)

A relationship can continue to work and thrive even if a marriage proposal was refused, provided that both partners approach the situation with open communication and understanding. After a proposal refusal, it is crucial for the couple to engage in honest conversations about their feelings, concerns, and the reasons behind the refusal. Respect for each other's boundaries and emotions is paramount during this time, avoiding any pressure to change one's mind about marriage. Instead, they should focus on exploring their compatibility and shared goals, giving each other space to process their emotions and reevaluate the relationship.

theres been some posts re:pet dog management and each remind me of the times ive been written off as hysterical for not wanting to leave dogs that are unfamiliar each other alone unsupervised for long stretches of time. ie when introducing a new dog to the household or when minding someone else's dog and going to work or a long outing. vs setting up simple but adequate pens for each where they're nearby but not within reach of each other. when that is an available option.

Franco Barbi is not age regressing. I don't know why I've seen this take multiple times?

1. Age Regression is distinctly characterized as unintentional. Franco is so aware of how bizarrely immature he is acting that he makes jokes about it. Constantly. "You'd hit a fucking baby?" "Take the nipple," etc.

2. Not only is he aware that he's acting this way, he also does not want to be perceived as childish. It's humiliating and immasculating for him and he gets mad at others for calling him little or "il bambino", which literally just means "the child". He hates being called a child. The infantilization from others is directly tied to his disability, it upsets him.

3. His self-infanilization is very obviously tied to his kink. He has a humiliation fetish. The baby thing is a part of his fetish, because he finds it humiliating. HE can call himself a baby to get his rocks off, but once YOU do it? That's just crossing a line. The ableism he's faced his entire life has morphed into some nightmare sex pest maladjustment. Its not proper coping, nothing sex related really is, but you didn't get into the outlast fandom to talk about healthy, functioning adults. (Hopefully. If so, wow, you poor fucker!)

4. "Then what about the self-soothing with the pacifier?" Self-soothing is a completely normal thing that even healthy adults do. The act of self-soothing isn't indicative of anything, it's just more pronounced in those with developmental/mental disorders. The choice of specifically a pacifier is him being That Guy Who Wears Fetish Gear In Public. He's just weird and likes to freak people out; humiliation tends to go hand in hand with exhibitionism. Not to mention he clearly wants to be feared, he revels in it. Wether the baby thing or the serial killer thing scares you doesn't matter, it just matters that you're scared and he can laugh about it. He likes to punch down.

What Colin Calls Penelope In Bridgerton

Between Part 1 and 2 of season 3, I made a post about wanting to see the numbers on what Colin calls Penelope throughout the show because I thought there was a significant increase in the use of "Penelope" over "Pen" as their relationship matured.

Well, I did a very quick rewatch of seasons 1 and 2 (basically fast-forwarding to the parts I knew Colin and Pen would either interact or Colin would mention Penelope) and a rewatch of season 3. AND I HAVE THE NUMBERS!

So here's a breakdown on what Colin calls Penelope through all three seasons of Bridgerton. I'll give the total as well as if it was said directly to Penelope or to other people.

(If someone wants to make a chart or something with all of this data, I would not hate that)

Pen

Season 1- 8 (directly)

Season 2- 10 (directly)

Season 3- 23 (directly); 1 (indirectly); 1 (unclear. He said it to Dream Penelope); 25 total.

Total number of times Colin has called Penelope "Pen"- 43

The rest is below the cut because this post got long!!

Miss Featherington

Season 1- 1 (indirectly)

Season 2- none

Season 3- 1 (directly); 2 (indirectly); 3 total

Total number of times Colin has called Penlope "Miss Featherington"- 4

Penelope

Season 1- 1 (directly)

Season 2- 1 (directly); 1 (indirectly); 1 (unclear. He was talking to Penelope but quoting himself--"I said to myself, 'If Penelope can see me this way...'"); 3 total

Season 3- 5 (directly); 22 (indirectly); 27 total

Total number of times Colin has called Penelope "Penelope"- 31

Miss Penelope

Season 2- 1 (indirectly)

Total number of times Colin has called Penelope "Miss Penelope"- 1

Penelope Featherington

Season 1- none

Season 2- 2 (indirectly)

Season 3- 3 (directly)

Total number of times Colin has called Penelope "Penelope Featherington"- 5

Auntie Penelope

Season 3- 1 (indirectly)

Total number of time Colin has called Penelope "Auntie Penelope"- 1

If I lumped "Miss Penelope," "Penelope Featherington," and "Auntie Penelope," into the same group with "Penelope," then Colin has called her Penelope a total of 38 times throughout the series. Which means "Pen" is still the winner.

And if any of you were curious, he called her "my bride-to-be" 1 time (directly), his "future wife" 2 times (directly and indirectly), "my wife" 2 times (both indirectly), and of course, as we all know, he called her "Mrs. Bridgerton" 1 time in the final episode.

Thinking about it, Liu Qingge is

extremely blunt

straightforward

and his first and only solution to problems is to punch them

Spends most of his time off fighting shit because it's better than socialising

Liu Qingge understands, and is accepted by, demon society so fucking fast

Like he can socialise with humans and he's aware of the rules but he also hates them and thinks they're dumb. He'd much rather settle things by punching

Whereas with the demons their actions and behaviours make sense to him and he responds correctly in most situations (by punching)

So he's a human running on demon software

But I also think he'd be EXTREMELY offended if anyone pointed this out

Regardless of whether or not you think bingliushen makes sense there is definitely a faction of the demons who are pushing for Luo Binghe to take Liu Qingge as Second Husband

They don't even understand why he says no because "you two openly flirted for 5 years!"

The Goat™ | Next

First, thank you so much to @ellemant for helping me BIG TIME with my vision for this coffee spot. You came in clutch with the PERFECT decos that gave the perfect vibe.

Lot Credit (again because this is the coffee shop connected to the shell that became the new Drake Estate)

Finally, in reference to what Darren mentioned about how close Sulani and Tomarang are, in my brain it looks something like this

with Sulani in place of the Philippines and Tomarang to the West of that.

I don't quite understand the listing on this 1917 bank building in Tekoa, WA. It's empty and looks like it hasn't been converted, but the listing says that it has 3bds & 2ba. It also looks like you get the entire building, but the listing calls it a condominium. It's got some pretty cool original features, though, and it's listed for $247K. Let's see what we have, here.

So, technically, this would be your main living area. I like the blue accents, all the original wood features and arch by the front door. They left the desk in the middle, and I think that would have to go. I also like the original mosaic flooring.

Now, here's the bank vault right on the main floor.

So, is this one of the 3 bedrooms? Look, they left a cool smaller safe in here, too.

But, wait! If you buy today, we'll double your order and you'll also get a second, secret vault with a bathroom. I don't see a shower or tub in here, though.

Maybe I would keep the desk. It matches the loft. This place needs a kitchen, so maybe it would make a nice island.

I'm confused. Is this considered a bedroom? The wood is nice, but there's an open loft above.

Stairs to the loft.

I still don't see where they see 3bds and 2ba.

Maybe this is the 3rd bedroom? I like the exposed brick, but it's way too narrow and has no window to be a bedroom.

There's a very large basement, but that furnace looks shot.

It's a huge space.

And, they left all their crappy archives for the new owner. The listing promised a secret passage. Is this where it leads?

I don't know, but I don't think that I'd pay $247 for this building. I don't see 3bds, 2ba, it needs a new HVAC system, plus a kitchen. 2 thumbs down.
