Incorrect, the fact that Biden has dropped out and a candidate with history of supporting medicare for all and being more receptive to a ceasefire in the I/P conflict has made me go from "I cannot morally support the Democratic nominee" to "I am voting for the Democratic nominee despite the fact she isn't perfect in every respect." I'm really happy this played out. The Dems for the most part abandoned the old Obama platform and it feels like its possible an actual progressive agenda could come to pass in my lifetime.

Kamala 2024!

If you weren't going to vote Democratic in this election before Biden dropped out you're a dorkass loser who does not care about any of the issues you're yammering about here and also a fundamentally bad person, and I hope you get run over by a bus.

But you got one thing right in all of this gibberish, Kamala 2024.

Why is the anime so weird, it's not even the same series dude?? It's like,

Anime:

GOKU: I have a great idea to bring peace to the universe, and my leadership and compassion alone will unite us all. I have No Flaws and am A True Relatable Everyman :)

VEGETA: NO! I AM THE BEST AND I WILL CAUSE PROBLEMS UNTIL I AM RECOGNIZED AS SUCH!!!!

Manga:

GOKU: Vegeta what's cornmeal made of? I know it's what the corn eats, but what's it made of? VEGETA: Hey Kakarot let's play the quiet game until one of us dies.

What do you think about the costumes on the gilded age?

I haven't started S2, but I was pretty impressed! There's so many gowns that are just straight up recreations of historical garments. Kasia Walicka-Maimone is very talented and I'm so happy she's getting a big budget show like this.

There was a couple clunkers on Carrie as Bertha Russell, but I can let that go seeing as 1) she was a last minute casting change, and 2) she was 8 months pregnant when filming on S1 wrapped! Seriously, kudos to the costume team because there was only one moment where I was like 'yeah she's pregnant'. The red gown makes up for everything though lol.

(Pictures taken from Carrie's Twitter)

Side note: If you're interested in seeing of the garments up close and some progress shots, Eric Winterling's instagram is the place to be! They also did tons of work on Mrs. Maisel.

I understand why some people get annoyed by focusing on a small thing mentioned about a character

but at the same time if we only know like five things about someone why wouldn't you??

like Colin's only mentioned as having a camera in COS because it was always just for plot convenience but you can pry him having one for the whole series out of my cold dead fingers because it's one of the few defining things we have about him and anytime I've ever seen him written without one he just feels wrong and like that is not my boy

Lavender only mentions rabbits once when talking about her pet binky dying but again that is now a part of her she will now never not have bunny rabbit associations to me

Percy is not in the little known about him category as much but I feel the same way about him liking Divination too yeah it's mentioned once and in a way you could technically argue against but nope he will always like divination to me now because of it

25 Days of Sleighpairs: Sukeve | Suki Panesar x Eve Unwin (EastEnders) + “Mistletoe”

Requested by Anonymous

'Are all of your Christmas decorations plant-themed?' Eve asked, eyeing the garland in Suki's hands with amusement. 'I'm not complaining, they're nice. I'm just used to decorations that are more...'

As she stalled for a word, Suki handed her the garland.

'Tacky?' she supplied with raised eyebrows.

Laughing, Eve said, 'I was gonna say bright and old-school, but sure, that works, too.' She stepped up onto the ladder as Suki held it steady for her. 'Growing up, my house was always covered head-to-toe in decorations. My parents went full-on. Tinsel and lights everywhere, massive reindeer in the garden. It was like living in a nativity scene.'

She pinned the garland up on either side of the doorway then came back down.

'I like this, too, though,' she said, eyeing the much less lurid decorations around the house. 'It's nice.'

'You forgot one,' Suki said. She held up a bow of mistletoe.

'Plastic?'

'We used to have real ones, but when Vinny was about three, he tried to eat it and nearly poisoned himself.'

Eve took the mistletoe with a grin. 'Oh yeah, because little plastic balls are much safer. Definitely not likely to end in a trip to A&E. And I think Nugget and Avani are past the age of trying to eat whatever they can get their hands on.'

Suki made a noise at that, watching her climb back up the ladder to pin the mistletoe above the doorframe, letting it hang down.

'I wouldn't be so sure about that. They're teenagers.'

'Good point,' Eve laughed. She came back down to the floor again, eyeing her handiwork. They weren't quite beneath the mistletoe, but she turned to Suki with a cheeky smile anyway and said, 'Do I get a kiss for all my hard work, then?'

Suki stepped closer, her mouth curving even as she tilted her head and said, 'You know you don't have to earn those, right? That's just sort of part of being in a relationship.'

'I know,' Eve said, her voice softening. She shook her head as she exhaled. 'I can't believe you're going to be my wife in less than two weeks.'

'Having second thoughts?'

'Never.'

She leaned in and Suki greeted her with warmth, kissing her slowly, and meaningfully. It said a million things at once, and they might never have pulled apart - if it weren't for Nugget and Avani arriving from school only to complain that they were going to leave again if they didn't stop "being all old and in love."

Do you like the colour of the new year's underwear?

Lmao more about Grover aging at a rate of 0.4 instead of directly by half (12/28 = 0.4285). This is also assuming that Grover is only aging physically slower, but his mental/emotional capacity ages chronologically and with experience.

But anyway Grover has to get a fake ID to go to bars with Percy. When Percy turns 21, they realize ah shit Grover looks 16ish once they pull up to the club and immediately get turned away. Grover does have an official ID with his actual birthdate. In the past as a Keeper for Percy, Bianca and Nico, he also had a fake ID with an adjusted birthdate for whatever age he was supposed to be. He doesn't have either of those IDs anymore (he had to get a new one for B&N because Percy's would've put him at 14 and he needed to be put into 12 year old Bianca's class), so it's not like he handed over the fake one.

But the bouncer gives him a once-over and is just, "yeah no". They try to argue but the bouncer is like "if you wanna fight on this, I'm gonna keep your ID and call the police" so they give up (or rather Grover makes Percy give up because he got that look in his eyes and getting arrested on his birthday is not a birthday gift Grover wants to give).

In the end, they skulk around to some minimart and grab one of each alcoholic bottle with a weird name or label that they can find, are grateful the cashier doesn't seem to care that Grover looks 16 and barely even looks over his ID when he flashes it. Then they huff it back to Percy's apartment and taste test each drink on the floor of Percy's bedroom, because the whole point of going to the bar was to taste something that wasn't cheap beer stolen by the Hermes cabin.

Grover has a wildly fantastic tolerance for alcohol and Percy discovers that he is a lightweight.

The next time they try to go to a bar, Grover is sporting a temporary glamour from the Aphrodite cabin to make him look older. About half way through, they ring up Annabeth to make her do the math on how old Grover would have to be to actually look 21, and then the math on how long that would take because neither of them can subtract double digit numbers. Percy rediscovers he is a lightweight and, when the glamour finally starts to wear off, has to be carried back to his apartment by Grover, which makes for a ridiculous image of what appears to be a disabled 15 year old carrying around a grown man who won't stop talking about how much he loves his friends, including said disabled 15 year old.
