@boysdontcryboycry bb u ask who dick wheeler is and let me present this to you
also her denying having bathtubs in her home which was wild because she hung herself on front of the one upstairs- ie it did in fact exist, and like everything else she denied and denied.
One thing abt me is that i will never not notice s2 mike and teds matching daisy randone sweaters
#the warden makes housecalls -> guess who visited the wheeler home with a rosemary look alike in s1#this monologue has been living in my head rent free for months lol lmao even#the teddy bear is also fucked up bc everything to do with daisy is a concealed allusion to csa.#the bear in her bed- i believe her father used to come by to the hospital and visit her in her room. he was rich enough to get away with it#chicken = cock. her fathers chicken that she is always eating. her denying having bathtubs in her home. a dick is a chicken is a dad.#i believe they changed it for the movie but in the book daisy would institutionalize herself on her birthday and eventually committed#suicide on that day#tw suicide#tw csa#i hope youre enjoying your chicken ted#mikes fuckign... risotto in s4 that he wasnt eating. might have been chicken risotto#regardless st is is FULL to the brim of narratives where fathers force things onto their (usually sons) children. hoppers father influencin#him to go to vietnam#steves father forcing him to get jobs. ted tightening the tie on mike even though mike said it was choking him (im passing out)#brenner trying to force el and henry to become psychopathic murderers#lonnie trying to force will and jonathan to be masculine... its like. a consistent theme in the show comparing all these forms of#mistreatment#girl interrupted x st#and then the emotional incest implications with s1 nancy and holly dressed like rosemary.... kills myself. wild also the tie scene is in#mike's bedroom but we never ever see under any other circumstance ted in any of his kids bedrooms (or upstairs) in the entire show. but the#chose that for mikes bedroom just for the subtext. ted 'see what happens' wheeler im blowing you up with my mind. who victimized you my man

i also kinda think that this:
is what we all thought was vietnam. i dont think klaus or anyone goes back there. i think it might have been the literal modern day US army to stop the academy siblings.
or trying to stop ben.
unless im wrong, usually am.
the house looks like hargreeves home for wayward boys. i wonder if thats the ➡️new⬅️ academy base.
im excited for a ben central season. am a tad concerned he dies though.
#tua#the umbrella academy#umbrella academy#tua s4#the umbrella academy s4#umbrella academy s4#ben hargreeves#i think vietnam isnt a thing thats gonna happen#this season is literally ben just going ape shit honestly#and good for him. baby girl deserves it

Jimithon Mouthwashing is such a good representation of untreated, enabled NPD like it makes me want to squeeze the life out of him. I'm endlessly fascinated when watching him interact with his crew, surroundings, and himself because he's so fucking lost in his own sauce. It's insane. If I'm being real, it makes him my favorite character in the game.
It's a little scary to say, but watching Jimmy is like seeing a mirrored version of myself two years ago before I truly committed to treatment for my NPD. He's like a shadow. The opening line "I hope this hurts," which I believe comes from Jimmy right before the crash, is such a poignant statement. It's a simple line, but I can tell you from experience that the desire to hurt others when in a narcissistic rage is overwhelming. It's such a good line to sum up Jimmy's character in that moment. Luckily, in the real world, I had my friends and family there to catch me when I hit my lowest, even though I'd hurt them so many times. Jimmy probably could've used friends to force him into therapy (cough cough Curly cough cough)
#also I don't mean we're similar in any way when it comes to rape or SA. Please don't twist it that way at all.#I mean like in terms of the jealously resentment revenge hurting others to feel thrilled not taking responsibility not seeing flaws etc#I'm diagnosed with NPD also but pls know my experience will be different from others. We're all different people obvs.#also Jimmy has like wayyyyyyyyyy more things wrong with him not just untreated NPD lol#I would say that untreated NPD is a hell most can't describe#you barely feel anything except rage boredom and jealousy (in my case)#love is a form of ownership and control because you can't really feel it the right way#so your -person- is an object of intense obsession and also a tool for you#if that makes sense? I see that with Jimmy and Curly for sure#You want to tear others down and hurt them because it makes you feel good to put them below you#there's a constant feeling of insecurity and it drives you crazy fr#kind gestures from friends feel insulting#and oh my god achievements made by friends and family in my case feel like I've been shot like I hate when they achieve things#It's not logical obvs but that's something I instantly noticed in Jimmy so i was like .....oh brother lol#and also if they achieve something my brain needs it to somehow be tied to me or I'll make it tied to me so they can be thankful#they should always center their attention on me and if they don't I immediately resent them#these are just some of my thought processes on the matter so I can show the similarities I feel with Jimmy#the KEY DIFFERENCE is all of these thoughts I have are left in my head and not exhibited in my actions (any more. took a long time)#but he is such a nasty human with ZERO introspection that he prob never even thought about treatment#also doesn't help that the hot blonde he's friends with never did anything to help with that#idk sorry for oversharing but ahhh this game is so well written I gotta yap about it lol#also kind of a funny unrelated story to show how weird the achievement thing can be lol#my friends announced they saved up enough to go to Vietnam (their dream trip) and I was happy for them (I really was)#but of course my delusional ass immediately also took it as a threat#and I booked a month long trip to Europe a few days after so I could also announce it LMAO#that is a kind of innocent incident when compared to Jimmy but it just shows how annoying NPD can be#Jimmy mouthwashing#mouthwashing#mouthwashing game#NPD

happy thursday/friday. heres (perhaps? the first bit i've ever posted on here?) an excerpt from my upcoming hbo war vietnam era/post vietnam au series
i literally laid down on my bed and whipped this up in less than an hour and i fuck with it and im in a giving mood so please enjoy :)
_-_-_-_-_-_
Cradling the cool, hard plastic of the payphone in between his cheek and his shoulder, Eugene pulled a few loose coins from his pants pocket and slipped them into the lot on the machine. It was getting late here but over on the West coast it was just around dinner time and hopefully he could catch him at home. He easily recalled the number and after only two rings, the line clicked.
“Hello?” the familiar, soft voice came through the phone line.
“Jay, it’s Eugene,” he said, as a faint smile naturally appeared on his face.
“Gene, hey!” Jay responded, voice sounding more excited now that he knew it wasn’t some prank call or a wrong number. ��What’s going on?”
What was going on? Eugene couldn’t help but wonder as he glanced around at the brightly lit up truck stop, everything slightly out of focus due to the combination of wear and dirt on the phone booth glass.
He glanced at the gas station parking lot and still saw Snafu’s rusting blue pickup with the giant chrome Airstream attached. He didn’t seriously think Snafu would leave him in the middle of nowhere but Eugene couldn’t help the small bout of anxiety he got when he went too long without seeing Snafu or his- their -temporary home. All of a sudden he felt like he might as well have been five instead of twenty-five and he just lost sight of his mother at the market in town.
“So, funny story…” Eugene started slowly, still processing how he would explain the situation he had willingly walked himself into.
“An actually funny story or funny like you need bail money- I assume not for you though, because this call isn’t coming from a police station,” Jay asked easily, tone even like he really wouldn’t have minded either scenario.
“Funny like Snafu showed up at my door Wednesday night,” Eugene stated, deciding to simply bite the bullet. “And I am calling you from a payphone outside Dayton, Ohio because he asked me to go on a road trip to the Grand Canyon and for some crazy reason I said yes. And I figured someone besides Bill and Faye should know so, yeah. That’s what’s going on with me right now.”
For a long moment all Eugene could hear was the slight crackle of Jay’s breath as he slowly processed the news. While he waited, Eugene glanced over his shoulder again; still no sign of Snafu but the truck was still there.
“That is a pretty funny situation you’ve got yourself in,” Jay decided after a long moment. “Now, I know you said you agreed to go with him but did you? Is this a willing trip or are you actually kidnapped and you’re calling for help. Cough twice if you’re in danger.”
“Jay,” Eugene sighed exasperatedly. “I’m really okay. I promise.”
“You sure?” his friend asked, the dry, sarcastic tone from before gone now and in its place was something more genuine, more concerned.
Eugene frowned as he fidgeted with the phone cord for a moment. He had wanted to call Jay for several reasons. Firstly, he and Jay regularly communicated, via letters and occasional phone calls, if they wanted to swing the long-distance fee for something that couldn’t be held up by the U.S. postal service, and Eugene didn’t want to be thought of as rude if a letter went unanswered for longer than usual. He also wanted to let Jay know that Snafu was not only alive but seemingly okay, as he was one of approximately four people who would like to know that information. Lastly, however, Eugene wanted to call Jay because he was the only person alive who knew what the fuck had actually gone on between the two of them while in Vietnam. Perhaps Eugene should have called him back when he was weighing the pros and cons of traveling across the country with the man and none of his friends seemed to understand why he was so hesitant to go along with the man who, to the rest of the world, was just one of his closest war buddies, but that ship had long since sailed. At the very least he could let someone know his situation in case things blew up later and he needed an ally to help pick up his pieces.
“I’m sure,” Eugene said definitively. “I promise.”
As Eugene picked his head up, he watched as Snafu exited the gas station with a mildly irritated expression on his face and a paper bag in hand. He watched for a long moment as Snafu’s eyes scanned the parking lot before they finally landed on him in the booth. Ignoring how his stomach lurched in a not-totally-uncomfortable way as Snafu put him in his sights, Eugene simply raised his hand to let the man know he saw him before Eugene turned his back to him so he could finish his phone call.
“If you’re sure, Eugene,” Jay decided quietly. “You say you’re gonna see the Canyon?”
“Yeah, finally,” Eugene huffed with a small, sad smile.
“Well, make sure you take some good pictures to send to me,” Jay responded, the slightly stilted tone in his voice let Eugene know Jay remembered what the Grand Canyon really meant to him.
“I will. Faye let me borrow her camera.”
Faye’s beloved Kodak was currently nestled away in a storage compartment in Snafu’s Airstream. Eugene didn’t want to risk damaging or even losing such a beloved possession on the trip but Faye would not hear of it. She not only wanted pictures of the Grand Canyon but also told Eugene to take as many pictures as he could to remember the trip.
“Hey, so, I gotta run, Snafu’s looking at me all pissed from across the parking lot and I think he’s beginning to scare off the patrons of the gas station,” Eugene said as he looked over his shoulder and watched for a moment as Snafu lit himself a new cigarette before he began to shuffle back to his truck.
“Thanks for calling and letting me know,” Jay said. “Feel free to call again when you can or if Snafu wants, you can give him my information. It’d be nice to hear from him.”
“Be careful, he might show up at your door next and ask to go on a trip to Canada.”
“Can’t say I’ve been up north before so I might go if he asked,” Jay said easily. “But I’ll let you go.”
“Bye, Jay.”
“Bye, Gene.”
Hanging the phone back on its cradle, Eugene pushed out of the slightly claustrophobic booth and quickly crossed the parking lot until he reached where Snafu was casually leaning against the side of his truck, his cigarette half smoked as it hung out of the corner of his mouth. Once Snafu’s pale eyes landed on him, he pushed off the side of the truck and climbed back into the cab of his truck.
“Who’d you call?” he grunted as Eugene climbed into the passengers side of the cab.
“Jay,” Eugene answered, deciding to go for the truth.
“De L’Eau?” Snafu asked, a hint of surprise in his voice as he started up the truck and slowly pulled out of the parking lot, the large airstream towed behind them making it a bigger production than usual..
“You know any other Jays?”
“Damn, there anybody from over there who you haven’t kept in touch with?”
“Yeah, you,” Eugene responded shortly as he continued to stare straight ahead through the windshield.
Instead responding, Snafu simply flipped on the car radio and let the twangy tones of Creedence Clearwater Revival fill up the space of the cab as they drove down the dark, semi-deserted road in search of somewhere out of the way to park the Airstream for the night.
#sledgefu#eugene needs jay in every universe to be that semi calm friend to tell him its okay if he's having a mental break down#just let a man know so he can respond appropriately#but yeah. bulk of the fic is eugene and snaf go on a roadtrip to the grand canyon in 1973#peppered in are flashbacks/time jumps back to eugene times pre during and immediately post vietnam war#im having a lot of fun just doing weird funky bits of research so :)#hopefully will start posting soon. rn im just jumping around writing different bits#kelly writes#vietnam au

when ur watching a youtuber’s content over time (either starting at their old videos and watching up to their newest stuff, or just being subscribed n watching their new videos as they come out) and they progressively show more Personality each video, except their sense of humor is not funny and takes away from the point of what they’re trying to show you … devastating.
#sometimes… u r just not funny.. go back to showing me ur minecraft mansion#i saw someone once get comment bullied into stop making jokes on their videos bc they were so unfunny LOL#like unfunny in the way that a little kid makes jokes. and even the minecraft kids watching his video#told him to stop#anyways this is about a pikmin youtube series where he goes from making no jokes#to making vietnam jokes and its like damn pls just keep quiet and#narrate ur little challenge to me thanks

Song of the Day: January 9
"I Heard It Through the Grapevine" by Creedence Clearwater Revival
#song of the day#I'm at my grandfather's house now!#he's more than half deaf (partial hearing in only one ear) and the only thing more substantial than his record collection#is his sound system#CCR loud enough to feel in your bones. take a shower while the music plays and feel the water droplets vibrate as they fall. it's amazing#I missed the fuck out of this old man. had no idea the extent of it. I missed him so bad#old man with his La-Z-Boy perfectly molded to his body and his turntable collection and his novelty soda cozies and his model planes#it stormed like hell all day and none of us could hear each other speak over the wind and thunder and dogs howling and blessed CCR#so we've just been hanging out. played monopoly except again we couldn't hear so it was like monopoly + charades#sensory input through the /roof/ I forgot what it was like here. bliss for my brain#tomorrow if the weather stays calmed down I'm going to ask him what 'who'll stop the rain' is about#get those soothing background 'fuck vietnam' sounds going while I do my reports for work. missed this shouty old man like hell

The fun thing about old trauma is you'll go so long without a trigger that you'll think you're over it but then you realize that's not true and the things that trigger it have just reduced in quantity.
#my grandma (who im not close to) is probably gonna die soon which means my dad is probably gonna come back to the states from vietnam for#her funeral (when it happens) and that kinda terrifies me#i havent seen my dad in over 5 years and completely cut him out of my life#the amount of confidence and self esteem ive gained since cutting him off is amazing but the thought of seeing him again#i cant tell if ill just go back to the scared child i used to be or if ill be able to stand up to him#and like i said im not close to my gma so i could probably get away with not going to this hypothetical funeral#but id also want to go to support the little family i am close to on that side if that makes sense?#but even if i didnt i still dont relish the thought of him being in the same town as me esp since this is a small town#the odds of me running into him are relatively high#gma isnt even dead yet but of course hearing she wasnt doing well made my brain spiral and remind me the trauma is in fact still there

"do you want to take a picture?" no "did you get any pictures?" no "aren't you sad you didn't get any pictures?" NO!!!! i am the not picture taker. i have to remind myself to take occasional selfies with my boyfriend so we can prove to the korean government we've been dating sufficiently long to get married.
#like if someone wants a picture with me i will let them#and in japan i had a bit of fun taking pictures#but i actually think many experiences are better when everyone is not waving their phones around#like walking through the wish lantern tunnel at the jinju lantern festival. WISHHH i could have simply strolled down the tunnel#instead we had to stop every two steps because literally every other person in there was taking photos and videos#another thing—it's fine for people to make these and go to these but i dont like art installations that are MADE for pictures#MADE to be posted on your instagram story#i want to feel utterly rocked to my core IN PERSON by art and culture and experiences and i dont care how it photographs#in vietnam i took pictures (almost) every day just to force myself to leave the airbnb#and i took videos in halong bay for my dad so i can convince him to go back w me sometime#but like call me a boomer. i do not care about pictures and they wont help me remember#i just want to feel things deeply while im there. sorry to sound all 'just live in the moment' but#t
