no offence but the reason tumblr is “dying” is, well, yes, of course the cursed like/reblog ratio and the change in user behaviour (because of people being used to how instagram and tiktok work) BUT also the lack of weekly shows. i say it with my whole chest, they don't produce captivating and engaging stupid weekly tv shows anymore because streaming killed that so you have spikes of activity here when Something happens in general fandom or up to three days after a new season of whatever drops and then it's a wasteland. this is obviously an old woman yelling at a cloud missing supernatural and the vampire diaries and pretty little liars and all these other shows type of post but honestly give me back weekly tv shows where i have something to watch for 40 minutes almost every day of the week after work so then i can read and reblog it on tumblr give it back for the sake of my sanity
#we used to be a proper country#or something#this post is brought to you by me coming back from work and being like okay what now 🧍🏻♂️#i mean obviously i have stuff to do but these are just chores and what i need what i have been programmed to need is a 40 minute long#episode of stupid cw show with a gay ship that's never gonna go canon... :(((#tumblr#fandom

Does anyone else suffer from the disbelief that they are their age?
#I either feel 40 or 17. no in between#I can’t believe I’m in my twenties and some do my friends are getting masters#but more power to them!#or perhaps it is the relative freedom from not feeling bound to an arbitrary timeline and having the space to mentally breathe and explore#that I miss#but once you leave the structure of education (either after graduating from whatever is secondary school at your country/dropping out or#post grad education. things get weird#I’m realizing that some people (attempt to) follow these arbitrary timelines because they want to get married and (maybe) have kids#but….i don’t want that. which is quite freeing#I used to be of the ‘dating for marriage’ mindset but not now#idk it seems like a lot to look for someone who ticks all your romantic checkboxes and also ltr checkboxes#and kids are expensive so not having them is very financially freeing#and just…time freeing I guess#I think generally I’m not a very social person. and I don’t really start itching for socializing unless I’m literally isolated (like I was#literally yesterday)#and a lot of things I like to do I tend to do solo#like lifting. for me to get to my physique goals I’ll practically be in the gym almost everyday for ~2 hrs. and yeah I don’t *need* to be#that extra but I have that choice to decide whether to overtrain my body or crank out overtime or be in my routine executive dysfunction#spirals (ok that’s not really a choice but still)#and I need time to decide on which hobby to ditch and bounce from each time haha#basically I don’t think I’m ltr material. and that’s ok. im just out here enjoying my life#once you’re out of an educational structure (idk abt yall in academia) you can choose whether to follow a set path. and maybe that’s what#you want idk. but you should also examine whyyy you want the thing. do you want to get married to a man and have kids because YOU want that#or because everyone else is doing it? and you don’t want to stand out or feel like your failing in life. meanwhile you might not even like#men or hate prenthood.#imma end it here I have things scheduled (yay) and I need to shower#uchiha-gaeshi ramblings#uchiha-gaeshi overshares#life#txt

black eyes
#my stuff#my writing#mein fucking goat i cannot keep having dreams about my ex and yet it is happening still#this is one of the less remarkable ones even. i’ve had two in the past month where i try desperately to give them a flatscreen tv#and one of those big ones too. like 40 inches across. i don’t own a flatscreen tv#i’ll admit it being in singapore is hitting me like a brick to the balls and i am grievously unwell#it’s like i come back and all the work i put in to deal with my anxiety and depression gets high in the woods and dies#but that’s not the point. the point is devoid of friends (in fucking america) and a hyperfixation (haven’t found anything that’s stuck)#i am full of nothing but yearning. good ol classic yearning. and i am so moved on from my ex but i keep trying to give them this fucking tv#!!!! ?????? huh????????????? mayne got………#a girlfriend or a cat would fix me. or leaving this country take your pick#working on it#i’ve made a to do list to combat my i have lost the will to do things problem#and on it is APPLY TO JOBS (note; outside singapore (note: outside america too))#i have a plan and it’s to get as far away as possible and live#we’re getting there#in the meantime here’s a funny poem#i was so. in the dream i actually wanted to see them which is crazy. top 10 bad fan characterizations#but it was a dream with a good color palette. all cool whites and grays and a deep deep blue for the night#cold cold white snow. etc. so of course i had to write about it#which i have done. and now i am going to sleep#good bye

maybe it's to maintain a sense of tension & turmoil that would eventually reach an explosive peak, a sense of tug-of-war, a back-and-forth to hammer home the ideals they want to deliver and for the viewers to chew on, but although these arguments regarding hiroshi & his stance as a man torn between his loyalty for his country & the loyalty for his Filipino friends and lover is of course important, how they write these scenes & the points they present from this week alone is getting too repetitive...? literally the argument scenes from last night & tonight between adelina & hiroshi is basically the same; the ideas were the same, the dynamics were the same: the aggressive, radical adelina, bristling rage and fear over the injustices she's seen thus far, and the cautious, inspiriting hiroshi, all hopefulness and reassurance one moment as a lover, defensiveness and sternness as a japanese soldier in another. this debate will be ever-present ofc, it is one of the series' biggest conflicts, but it is unfortunately so easy to tell when it is a.) being pulled up as a main topic to move the plot along / be a necessary conflict for character development/introspection / be the conflict to deliver the morals & messages the writers want to send to their viewers, or b.) when it is being pulled up only for the drama and filler to pass the time. like watching the characters sit down to argue for 10 minutes, do other things for the plot for 2 minutes, then sit down again to argue for the next 20 minutes. lol.
#lots of things i wish they would soon improve but this 1 bothered me tonight..stopped watching halfway thru#these scenes would be like excellent breaks for when we need to take a breather to digest what's been going on#but at the slow pace they've set it it's just...nothing's been going on since like...4 days ago#except for eduardo's plot#it's just arguments..everywhere....all the time....over the same repetitive things#no progress nothing new to chew on despite there being drastic changes to their situation...? same vibes from the time they weren't occupie#yet lol. same dynamics mostly#only new points of debate is regarding hiroshi & his country vs friends conflict#& carmela being desperate to go back to comfort & luxury vs her family standing as firm as they could against the occupation#ahhh i am sooo not eloquent enough to express my full thoughts but like!!! fellow viewers if y'all r here u understand me right lmfoskadhsg#finding it hard to criticize bc i'm trying to make sense of where they r coming from#a.) seeing as unlike mcai this is a complete original story it's hard to see what direction they'd like to take it to#b.) fil shows really find it hard to break away from their normal formulas of family dramas & bastard children & love triangles :'))))#god the opportunity to tell a refreshing diff story but this is like gma show 67627627th but set in the japanese era....then mixed with 50%#of the mcai show feel#the editing the visuals the acting = good. 60% of the story line = can be compared to the hundreds of gma shows we've seen be4#anywy going off on a tangent...#c.) i can understand the slow pacing as them trying to establish the settings & the feel of that era so that the more intense tragedies-#later on would hit harder#but again. few scenes feel like they're dragging on for too long. some scenes & themes r too repetitive#need to see something differenttt something fresh something developing. something moving & feeling & connecting w/the audience#need to see more of the Philippines & the Filipino people in the 40s!! not the same afternoon prime drama shot in intramuros#need to see their messages staring into our souls instead of just being words uttered in tears#all this to say....flop era this week tbh sorry#EXCEPT FOR MAX COLLINS & HER LIKE. 3 MINS SCREEN TIME. MAX COLLINS I LOVE U QUEEN#rambles#pulang araw#putting this in the main tag i KNOW some ppl out there would feel the same & can explain this better lol i swear????

It’s always crazy to see black celebs spew this same rhetoric because it’s such a privileged take… like, they’ve been famous for so long and have gotten their money up, moved out of the projects or whatever tf, that they’ve forgotten what it’s like to be genuinely feel. It’s impossible for them to connect anymore. As far as the qrt, oh wow ☠️.

#it’s always the same shit with these negros bro#like even recently with lil Wayne and all of these idiots crying about the Super Bowl and how he didn’t get chosen to perform#and you got idiots like Nicki and others going on about ‘taking opportunities away from a young black man-‘ (the nigga is in his 40’s bro)#despite Kendrick being younger…. and as a black person why not just be happy for another instead of trying to use race and guilt trip peopl#into caring about you over another black person when it’s convenient for you#because i remember when this dude used to say that he doesn’t care about blm or politics and he’s getting money#and that it doesn’t affect him so why should he care? now you’re crying about opportunities being taken away from you as a black man#I’m getting off topic but it’s the same sentiments similar to what Pharrell’s coon ass is saying#he’s always been one actually#rambling#whenever someone goes on about being apolitical they’re already not worth listening to#especially since politics shapes our entire lives like do you not care about what will happen to you#and what’s happening to people across the seas and in other countries like what is the real reason why sm ppl chose to play apolitical#I don’t want anyone around me if I can’t talk about politics with them or know where they stand as far as politics go#at the end of the day who cares about what a celeb has to say on politics since#I always go back to that one section in Dave Chappell standup (I know this was before he became what he is today… he was so normal back#then holy shit🗿) where he was taking about how ppl are super private about their politics and also#him going on about how ‘who tf cares about what ja rule thinks’#😭…. that’s literally it!!!#but to an extent it’s relalr dangerous to see ppl with such gigantic platforms and notoriety spew shit like this as if it’s normal#it only helps tp further push anti intellectualism and so on#like how are you an adult and you don’t care about politics#that’s embarrassing

If you're sick of the generic Christmas songs you've been forced to listen to while shopping, I made a playlist of some more unique songs.
#or if you only like some of the songs on my playlist feel free to steal what you like for your own playlist#I hate the typical christmas music more and more every year#it's the same obnoxious 40 childrens songs#why are we all forced to listen to “sleigh ride” and “up on the housetop”?#not to mention “santa baby” and “the christmas shoes”#I don't want to listen to “I wish I were a little bar of soap” and “bingo was his name-o” when I'm grocery shopping#so why is it okay to subject everyone to the most brain grating children's music for two months of the year?#anyway#I wanted to listen to holiday music too so made a playlist of actual good songs#there's some modern original christmas songs#there's some less known older carols#and my favorite: minor songs#jingle bells in minor is far superior to major#I also added some songs and score from my favorite christmas movies#there's also some songs in other languages#when I was in choir I loved when we sung christmas carols from other countries#I hope a few people find this helpful#christmas#christmas music#Spotify

Working on a character turnaround sheet, have this doodle in the meantime
I feel like we need more normal Elias designs to balance out the onceler twink ones ngl
#like yeah the outfits in those are very pleasing to the eye but like make him look at least 40 I beg#twink death time I am not making him skinny#elias bouchard#the magnus archives#tma#magpod#if he reminds you of a post-revolution president from a certain country no he doesn't

honestly at this point if you don't know what the seven mountains mandate is your analysis of american politics is worthless
#just. so many people talking about the election like it was decided by people who might theoretically have voted for harris#but instead voted for trump#and like. no trump had a fixed number who were gonna vote for him no matter what and the democrats needed to turn out more than that#but you are never going to convince his base to vote blue. 16% of the country thinks the democrats are satan-worshipping child traffickers#and 40 percent of american christians believe in the seven mountains mandate! which originated from the movement trump's pastor is part of!#and please understand that to be a christian by evangelical standards you just have to say the magic words and not be queer. trump qualifie#but yeah the seven mountains mandate involves a belief that christian theocrats must take over the u.s. government so jesus can come back#and like this grew out of the same decades-long movement that succeeded in overturning roe v wade! we /have/ to take this seriously!!!

I don't hate country music as a whole but being subjected to the country music radio station for six hours straight at work is a good refresher on why so many people think they do. The radio station plays the same songs every two hours, 90% of the male vocalists sound like the exact same man, and I go home with that man's voice stuck in my head singing some annoying hook about drinking or trucks or cowgirls that was repeatedly hammered into my psyche instead of anything musically interesting
#I'm beginning to feel this way about the Top 40 station too but at least they don't repeat songs like that and have a bit of musical variety#I can subsist on occasionally getting to hear a banger like 'Good Luck Babe!'#best I get with this country station is I'll maybe hear that cover of 'Fast Car' that messes up the final lyrics once#and that's balanced with taking psychic damage from the song about lynching

Also, if you're a minor working—please, please, be aware of the laws for minors. Most work places follow the laws, but I have been in places where they. Just. Didn't. And were probably breaking a lot of laws there.
#united states btw not sure about other countries#i only had it happened to me once#BUT DO NOT LET YOUR MANAGER BULLY YOU INTO WORKING LATER THAN YOURE SCHEDULE#i was 16 and completely. new. to working and my manager took advantage of that#and lemme tell you havinf a 40-50 yo women guilt trip you because you werent train properly and forcing you to stay way past your scheduled#hours and not letting you leave until YOUR parent had to CALL the store to let you go because#it was getting past MIDNIGHG#it wasnt a fun first job#dont let your higher ups bully you#is what im trying to get at#plus knowing the laws for minors can. generally. help#its different from state to state though

I'm not going to pretend it doesn't make me angry that I spend months and years trying to peddle my work to make ends meet, that I spend so much time mentioning my books and comms and everything, and people ignore that consisently... But the moment I finally break under the hopelessness - when it's obvious that it's fucking futile, that almost no one deems my work good enough to share with anyone else - suddenly they're concerned and scolding me. I'm working several jobs, bathing, generally keeping things clean, and I do this with several health problems including chronic pain. I found out that one of my cysts is growing and I may need to have it surgically removed. Which means potentially missing work to recover. Which means more money I lose. I spend so much time crawling out of the hole and it goes ignored, but the moment I just give up bc I don't have any strength left, suddenly that's my fault and I'm mentally sick. And that kind of makes me wish my entire situation upon people, and when they whine that it's hard, well fuck you, you thought I could ace it so surely you can, babe! I hate being angry about this, but it's just so exhausting to tell people who accuse me of not trying that I HAVE I HAVE SO FUCKING HARD AND YOU DID NOT PAY ATTENTION THEN Or you know you're attempting to gaslight me by claiming I didn't try despite that I obviously have worked my ass off trying, and that's so much fucking worse
#mcalhen personal#and I'm not saying I'm not mentally ill but ffs stop using it as a weapon to discredit people when they have the solutions right there#feels like people hate my writing and me and that's why I didn't go “I got the job” bc friends who never support me would be like#“I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU CONGRATS” cool I'm not I spend an entire day usually recovering from very calm shifts at a job I like#but the moment I publish a book it's not congrats it's I don't know this guy I don't know Cal and I'm gonna pretend I never saw anything#I don't even hate my goddamn job even tho it can be stressful but it's the easiest thing for mostly just 2 days a week#but it is not sustainable and I cannot survive on this and disability would be invasive as hell and y'all don't know shit about how they#treat disabled people in this country but goddamn I have watched that shit unfold with my autistic brother who can't work#and I can never help him at this rate#bc I can't help myself#I can't help anyone#and saying that is a big fucking issue with people who think if they say 'it gets better keep going' I'll magically unfuck my life#as if I haven't spent the entirety of my life trying to unfuck things#as if I didn't give myself an education in spite of my family#y'all never been threatened with physical violence bc you weren't supposed to ask for school supplies and it fucking SHOWS#I have learned so many things on my own time out of sheer desire to better myself and my situation#but at a point where nothing works out and each day is just filled with more bad news#at what point am I actually allowed to give up?#or am I supposed to just keep this up until I die with 40 more years of collected bullshit pain#bc if you want me to live like this for 40 years then... you never cared at all#and what's so stupid is that I really want to earn my living by doing the work#I work on my art and writing but let's just admit that it's pathetic already#no mental health services or pills will erase that I'm a pathetic garbage can of uselessness#also I realize no one owes me anything like boosting my work or w/e#but also don't ask me to turn rotten ingredients into a feast and say I'm not trying when I can't fucking do it
