Simone Biles women's individual all-around gymnastic gold medal performance!!! 🏅 She was in total control, executing every movement with precision and grace. She knew she was gonna win. You could see it in her eyes and that radiant smile. Simone is not only the most decorated gymnast with the most Olympic medals, at the age of 27, she's also the oldest athlete to have ever won this title!! And she's still going strong!! She's so exciting to watch. She's a delight!! She jumps so high and spins so fast, all the time making it look very easy. She's the best and she proved it!! I love how she encourages and cheers on her teammates and competition!! She's a class act and a great person besides being one of the greatest athletes to have ever competed in any sport. Congratulations, Simone!! Great job.

still thinking about gaz doing ghost’s skincare

even when they’re on base and the worst of the all-encompassing exhaustion is held at bay, he knows ghost doesn’t have the energy to spare to do any kind of in depth routine; knows as much as it makes him feel good to feel soft and clean and cared for, he won’t be able to keep up with it by himself

gaz just didn't expect how good it would feel to do it for him

how accomplished he'd feel when he figured out the right combination of products to soothe ghost's sensitive neglected skin without him breaking out or getting even more dehydrated, the best moisturiser for his scars, researching no-wash products so he doesn't have to get up once they've started; all ghost has to do is lay back and let gaz work

it's an honour, not only to be trusted enough with ghost's - with simon's - face but also to watch him lose every ounce of tension in his body

they usually - and how amazing that they have a usual, that this has become a routine - end up with ghost's head in his lap, a soft pillow beneath his head so he can just rest. it's not uncommon for him to fall asleep entirely as gaz follows his steps

bottles of cleansers and serums and moisturisers all bought just for him, each one dutifully researched with ghost's skin type in mind, all stored in a black leather bag moulded into a skull bc gaz found it browsing one day and thought it was too perfect. ghost doesn't even know what they all do, just knows how blissful it is to feel the gentle pressure of gaz's fingers massaging his face; following the contours of scars that haven't pulled or flared since they started doing this

gaz never tells him about the rollers he could use instead, the applicators that are technically better for his skin bc it would mean he'd know that gaz uses his hands just for him; that he can feel how much he craves his touch and knows he enjoys it just as much, if not more than the actual results

gaz just tells him that a thorough massage after everything is applied is necessary for all the products to marry up and sink properly into his skin and spends the next half hour smiling down at his superior as he lets go of all his pain and trusts him to keep him afloat

Rocket hates when Zuka smokes.

it reminds him of the smoke and pollution at. Playground, which made it extremely hard to breathe in.

Rocket doesn’t tell Zuka though cuz he doesn’t ant him to worry :(

(kinda self-projecting cuz my dad used to have a smoking addiction but he’s better now :D )

-🕊 Anon

i'd like to think that like deep down, no matter how much he hates the stench, the smoke smells faintly of home (nostalgia)

(also self projecting, my dad also has a smoking addiction)

I love the idea of Vasco helping Machete quit smoking, either by gently reassuring and congratulating him, or just straight up throwing the cigarettes away and showing him a whole PowerPoint about how much coffee he could buy with that money

I am going to try writing… the last time I wrote Anything was sometime in early-ish December I think… starting again is quite intimidating and a bit scary. HOWEVER, posting about it on tumblr makes it feel a bit less intimidating and scary.

Trying not to let this incredibly challenging last month of work make me resentful and uncharitably inclined towards others, but I think I would need at least two weeks at home drinking tea, reading fantasy novels, and playing with perfumes to truly stave that off.

-leans in real close to the mic- if you reblog ask lists from me and then don't actually ask me anything then please just don't reblog them from me.

I can see you reblogging a post that specifically indicates I would like to be interacted with, handing you an exact script of things to say, and then blatantly ignoring me. It feels bad, man. It's hella rude. And I see it happen from the same handful of people over and over and I'm at the point where I'm gonna get upset on main about it.

no firmer reminder of being an animal than when i do some moderate physical activity and my mental health is elevated by like 1000%

Hey y'all! Weird question time again, this time about push-ups! So I have a weird assortment of health issues, which makes most exercise in general somewhere between difficult, impossible, and inadvisable, but back before I got sick I was learning to do handstands and I loved it. Long story short, my new meds are helping, but it's been more than a decade and I want to work myself into being able to do handstands again without my arms collapsing and landing on my head, so I've been trying to strengthen my arms a little at a time So far, that's mostly been pushups*, but today I tried pushups with my feet elevated and that was significantly easier than normal pushups??? I'm pretty sure it's working different muscles, but it's also closer to a handstand, so have I been doing pushups wrong this whole time if my goal is handstands??? Also, are there other exercises you'd recommend if my goal is handstands? I want to really overprepare my arms in particular, because sometimes when my blood pressure is wonky my muscles are weaker than they should be, so I can't rely on them reacting correctly and I really don't want to fall on my head

*I also have a weird headstand trainer contraption thing that's basically like a shoulder rest so you can be upside down, like a headstand, without putting all your weight on your head? idk how to describe it but it helps practice the "being upside down" and "various torso muscles keeping you balanced while upside down" parts of handstands. I have no idea what it's called my mom was thrilled I wanted to do handstands and sent it to me
