I didn't know that the anxiety trait gave colonists panic attacks. Aw, poor Vu. At least Candlelight was there to help calm her down.

Irwin wants everyone in the colony to have a good time, which is all good and well, except that the food we're binging on is only edible by about three colonists. Everyone else is gonna be living off tea and coffee for two days.

We all headed down to the riverside for the feast, which was very eventful and lovely (well, lovely for some people- Candlelight couldn't walk for a few days, but that's what she gets for getting into a fight with someone who is actually capable of melee combat).

Why does nobody want to take the only colonist I actively dislike?? I don't want to deliberately accidentally get him killed, but it's getting to the point where I think it might be my only option...

bg3 fans showing their da leanings in how allergic they are to nuance 😔

[daouoffroads]

I just don't understand how you like S*l? He is actually right up there with T**g for being the worst. There is nothing good about him, sorry.

i don't understand the wild and weird hate against sol (or even remotely comparing him to tong) but here we are, anon. like if joe out right saying sol is a good person can't convince ya'll... idk why you're asking me?

anyway... you asked for my thoughts and opinions, so you shall receive.

sol is just a really interesting dude to me. he's just some guy that i think is really neat. he's a thai kpop idol and FAMOUS famous but he isn't like tong about it. he's kind and just a really good-hearted person. he's the sunny type, cheerful, caring, and loyal to his friends. like joe, sol is a sunflower in the toxic showbiz world msi is set in.

(tbh i see him and ming, who is also a fascinating character, as kind of two sides of the same "rich and famous" coin. ming is cold, aloof, calculating with walls as high as elon crust's ego is inflated. and then there is sol, open and kind-hearted. which is exactly why he and joe hit it off. funny though, ming and sol are petty but like on completely opposite ends of the petty spectrum.)

after lovingly bugging @zhouxiangs for novel spoilers i really wished the series had touched more on sol and joe's history instead of just a few throwaway lines here and there because sol's story ;3; my smol bean of a son. (and this is where media literacy and nuance comes in :D but y'all barely have any of that.)

joe and sol were very close . they ate, trained, and slept (sleeping type of slept lol) together. they did everything together. and then sol found out joe was gay (in the novel sol was also struggling with his sexuality) and then joe confessed to sol. joe liked sol first (not this weird warped reality y'all are living in where sol has been obsessing over joe). but anyway, sol was young and scared and dumb. he was afraid of being taken advantage of and also of his own feelings for joe and he ran away. joe got over it and never held it against him.

while in korea, it seemed that sol struggled to connect with people and went through some tough times as a trainee (i'm quoting from porsche's interview) and he realized his true feelings for joe so when he had the chance to return to thailand he took it and he sought out joe to reconnect. as a friend, as more.

was he supposed to have some sort of psychic link with joe that he was already seeing someone? obviously not. but when joe made it clear he liked ming, sol backed off romantically. he didn't back off as a friend though. (idk about y'all friendless gremlins but if one of my close friends was in the situationship from hell that joe was in... i'd also try and make them see reason, open their eyes. like sol once having feelings for joe does not diminish his friendship with joe. at all. (yes the scene of joe and sol in the van in ep 6 means everything to me. joe and sol were friends, brothers even. and that scene showed it.)

fyi, novel sol recognized joe too :D

ANYWAY, it was interesting to see the change in sol after joe's death. he isn't his usual cheerful self, but he's still kind and polite if a bit more reserved. and i for one love the cattiness with ming he has going on? LEAVE MING ALONE i see y'all shouting but me I WANT HIM TO PUNCH MING IN THE NUTS ONCE (if y'all can project, so can i) like ming deserves to catch a bit of shit from sol (his 'khun chai ming' sent meeee), since his and tong's bullshit directly contributed to the death of his best friend.

is sol perfect? no. (the fight with ming where joe got hurt. or the phone call scene that resulted in joe effectively being cut out of sol's life. again.) but are any of these characters perfect? absolutely not.

sol though is strangely villainized and for what? because he's trying to help and protect his friend (and is maybe being snotty with ming but... deserved tbh lol)? because he might be feeling a little righteous and fafo with the guy who took his friend away from him? because he once had feelings for joe but then redirected them into being a decent human and a good friend?

Y'ALL this is baby Lambert in his FAFO era, and Vesemir does not hold back!

[cyarsk52-20]

Mr. Aldean.

First, you grew up in MACON. Which as memory serves me well, is far from being a "small town."

Now, John Cougar Mellencamp wrote songs about living in a small town. And he did it WITHOUT invoking the image of Sundown towns or shooting a video at the site of a lynching.

Whether you like it or not, flag burning is protected speech under the same First Amendment you claim to hold dear. Which is why I have no problem using the confederate flag as kindling.

You have an opportunity to educate yourself rather than this lame ass fauxpology and please, don't think of using Kane Brown, Darius Rucker or any Black country artist as your convenient "see I'm not a racist" card.

Oh, and Journey sang about a small town and it's a very popular song. So have Creedence Clearwater Revival.

Cry in your beer.

What cracks me up is people think it's just small town folks who look out for each other.

This small-town-values shtick needs a reality check. Yes, folks in such places help each other (as folks do everywhere) but small-town people can be exceptionally cold, judgmental, and downright pernicious. There is no inherent wisdom or righteousness found in a one-horse hamlet.

There are neighborhoods in big cities where this happens. Especially when there are a lot of older Black and Brown folks who live there.

But I don't expect Mr. Aldean to know that.

Mr. Aldean,

You know who's video was also pulled from CMT?

Garth Brooks - "The Thunder Rolls."

Why?

Because his song was about domestic violence and the wife finally pushed to the breaking point.

Not to compare you to Garth Brooks, whom as far as I remember has NEVER dressed in blackface at a Halloween party (see picture below in case you forgot).

Frankly, I'd much rather listen to Garth Brooks than your crappy ode to the 1950's courtesy of Foxed News.

John Denver wrote a song about, of all places, West Virginia, and it didn’t involve him and his boys beating up someone for having different political viewpoints.

Like hello!!!???

"Nutbush City Limits" by the Queen of Rock and roll, Tina Turner!

"Still they Ride" by Journey.

"Lodi" by CCR.

Heck even a group called Chapel Hart.

They sing songs about their small town and imagine that, they do it without invoking the image of Sundown towns, intolerance and shooting their videos at the site of a lynching.

Who knew?

Remember what happened to "The Chicks?"

Also, they dropped the "Dixie" part because they understood history as well as knowing their fanbase isn't lily-white.

Lady A did the same thing.

Some people evolve and do better.

Then there's Jason Aldean.

He knows better he chooses not to do better

So Mr. Aldean,

CMT pulling your crappy video isn't "cancel culture."

It's CONSEQUENCE CULTURE, also known as FAFO - something you're not rightly used to.

It’s the big city culture

Now, about to listen to Southern Fried True Crime and hear about all the stuff y'all get up to in them small towns 😉.

[taylortruther]

yeah, the video went viral well beyond fandom spaces. Many friends I’ve talked to who are “regulars” like Taylor’s music but definitely don’t follow her personal life, or who aren’t fans, have no issue with what Jason did. Now some of it maybe that some of my friends are football fans (as am I), but they aren’t eagles or chiefs fans, and for football reasons many of them dislike Travis. I think it mostly comes down to they see the use of the slur as a response way to hurt the aggressor, and frankly they find what the student did so gross they’re sort of happy to have seen a response. The old fafo.

Think some of this is also a response to election stuff where Trump supporters often get to be gross and violent and Dems seem to constantly be expected to take the high road.

i think this is true too and another facet to it and probably a very common thought, good or bad! and with that, lettuce move on. or not, y'all can send thoughts in, but i'll probably not post, i think the major points have been covered.

[tmrrwppl]

Sidenote, why did Good Omens get Goofy Simon and we got I am literally going to make your brain into an omelet, FAFO Simon?

Like y'all got this kind of comedic deliverer of the apocalypse and we got literal force choking defenestration

Meanwhile half my muses are fucking personally traumatized by him

[missbaphomet]

Yeah I found out that y'all are fucking annoying. You sure like to talk a big game about FAFO when you haven't impacted my life at all, and yet apparently I impacted yours so much that not only do you both cyberstalk me but you also created a cutesy little nickname for me in the form of "baphy". Tell me, does the inside of your skulls echo from all the empty space? Sure seems like the only thing rattling around up there is me.

And for the record, Ken, you're not my type. I'm not into felons.

[cyarskj1899]

And who tf made white people the beacon of morality anyway. Idgaf how they feel.

The best way to act is whatever you want!

Black folks are tired of Chris Rock & his bullshit. Meanwhile the usual suspects are lapping it up & trying to convince us that he's still funny. They like him because he got `em thinking you can say the n-word in our presence w/o negative consequences.

Most of us are NOT CR...don't FAFO. Why y'all have this ridiculous "need" for us to accept you saying the n-word to us is perplexing.

[ausetkmt]

this is my all together hero and I hope y'all understand exactly what she's talking about FAFO

[90363462]

The dragging y'all!

Luke Bryan FAFO!

[pushing500]

One Anima tree linking ritual gone well, and Kaz is now a level 14 psycaster with resurrection powers! Huzzah!

What do we think, everybody?

The pros of bringing Wendy back are that we will have Wendy back (obviously), Tamarind will be delighted to see her wife again (I assume), and she can give poor Zonovo and Kaz a break from working constantly in the kitchen so they can do their other jobs.

The cons are Kaz losing a finger, Kaz losing 6 hours of efficiency while he's in a coma, and the potential for it to go horribly wrong due to the fact that Wendy has been dead for quite some time now.

I can't decide, so anybody's input is valued! xoxo

TRUMP VOTERS are having buyer’s remorse.

I know these mofos can't be this stupid @iamaffscandallover @glendathegoodone now that these idiots r n the FAFO stage they want to change their votes. To late. When Kamala Harris Tim Walzs and Democrats were giving y'all straight facts y'all didn't listen now y'all realizing y'all r Abt to get screwed. Well hey FAFO season has come early

[tealleaves4]

Get PISSED y'all. Make sure they hear loud and clear their proud Nazi attitudes encouraging rape are NOT acceptable. By punching them in the dick, repeatedly. Your body, my choice, right bro? FAFO

The internet has just made me aware of the vile creature that is Nick Fuentes and like minded men who embody him.

To all the girls and young women out there, if any human ever approaches you yelling the vile rhetoric this POS is telling them they can, you have every right to protect yourself how ever you feel that is best accomplished.

If they are going to threaten acts of violence against you, you don’t have to stand there and take it simply because they haven’t acted on those threats yet. And when people then come and say you’re over reacting (because they will), do not apologize. Never apologize for protecting yourself.

Be angry. Take up space and protect that space. Misogyny and hate may have won the election but that does not mean that we have to fall in line to their whims. We will not be put back in the cage our ancestors fought to break out of.
