The House of Yes (1997) dir. Mark Waters

[kamiiri]

Ophelia wasn’t sure how to respond. Eventually, she came up with a question that was actually quite important to her.

“It’s not haunted, is it?”

“What? Ghosts aren’t real. Come on. There’s nothing wrong with this place. I just need to leave and get back home as soon as possible. My family must be worried sick about me.” Bella tapped her chin, contemplating. “Tell you what, I’ll give it to you for five hundred. Since we’re friends now.”

“Are we?”

“Sure, why not. Listen, take the house. I can’t just leave her here. Please.”

“Leave who here?”

“Oh…I was talking about the house. You know, like how ships are called she.”

“I would have to get my stuff from—”

“Perfect! It’s all yours!” And just as abruptly as Bella Goth entered Ophelia’s life, she exited without any further explanation.

More people need to talk to about Wyll’s trauma imo

Like we joke about how he’s so unbothered by the tadpole, he just gets on with helping the tieflings like “ah well, this may as well just happen,” but like

1. He prioritises his own life so little

2. This is a direct consequence of being tossed out by his father after essentially sacrificing himself to save his people (fuck Ravengard)

3. He goes around helping people in desperate situations with only bad choices bc he made the bad choice. He took the deal and saved the city, and now he goes around being the saviour - because no one was there to save him.

The fact that stands out to me is she provided a clear description of the floor-plan of the upstairs of the house where the attack (allegedly, have to include that!) occurred. Small bedroom across the hall from the bedroom. Kavanaugh's defenders say she was never there.

But he's a good guy who likes beer, so why worry about all his lies?

Settled law? What's that?

I just remembered something from years ago. Some don't believe in the paranormal and such. For me, I'm a believer. I have my reasons. But what I'm about to tell you wasn't something I experienced but my sister and Mom did.

Both of them, at the time, worked at a daycare together. They would be back home about 30 minutes before dark. I would always meet them outside to ask them about their day.

Well, one day, I did my usual routine. But when I tried to open my sister's car door, she immediately slammed it back shut. It confused me a lot because it was unexpected.

Then, she shouted at me to see if "it" was under the car. That confused me even more. But she was panicking and wouldn't get out until I checked. So, I got down and checked under the car. Nothing was there.

When I assured her of this, she, finally, got out of the car. That's when I questioned her about what it was about. It was the first time I ever saw her react like that when coming home from work.

She explained that while they were driving down then road, a large creature had walked out in front of the car. It was slightly taller than the front of the car. My mom, who was driving, didn't have time to stop the car nor could she have swerved to dodge it. But... there was no sound of it being hit by the car nor did they feel the tires run it over. It scared the shit out of both of them.

My sister swore it had latched onto the bottom of the car, hence why she wanted me to check. My mom backed her up. Both said the creature had dark brown fur. But they weren't able to see its face.

I still think about it at times. We, still to this day, have no idea what it was or what happened to it. They never saw it after that one time.

I thought I'd share something that puzzles me even years later. It's another reason I believe in the paranormal and supernatural. Ya'll have a good day/night.

One time I smiled at a stranger in the Ren Faire after I bought something from them and they told me "Oh, I love your teeth!" (Two of my canines poke out of the top of my gums, above the rest of my teeth) and I told my mom and she looked at me with pity and shook her head and told me they didn't mean it, but the thing about my teeth is that when I smile they're the first thing you notice, they're front and center, and they're the most distinctly me thing about my face, and now that I'm thinking about all that again I can't help but wonder

Do you think my smile's pretty, momma?

clears throat….

Reading about what happened to Keke Palmer on Feb 13, 2022 breaks my heart… truly.. and seeing comments from people calling her a liar or saying they believe her abuser, angers me. I just don’t get it. I know these are two separate situations… different people but I can’t help but think back to when news first broke of Jonathan Majors. The dissertations I read about how he’s an abuser and how he’s guilty even though we’ve never seen any evidence of guilt. Believing strangers on Twitter who later back pedaled and said “oh no I didn’t mean he was physically abusive” believing strangers who allegedly spoke to Rolling Stone who refused to go on record and provide proof. It was “if many people say the same thing then it must be true” but here y’all are calling Keke, her mother and Sarunas baby mother liars. Here y’all go questioning the leaked stills saying “show the whole thing. Show her being aggressive with him first.” But yet we see the alleged victim in Majors case perfectly fine hours after the alleged assault and y’all make excuses for her. We see proof of Majors being assaulted but y’all didn’t care cause “there’s no excuse for a man to hit a woman” right? So why try to justify Darius actions with a hypothetical “keke must’ve been aggressive first”. Y’all give Jabbari grace while bashing Keke. Jabbari was granted a temporary restraining order so y’all believed “yeah he’s guilty” Keke was granted the same protection order and it’s “shes just doing this for attention.” Y’all quickly turned on Majors immediately as the news broke refusing to wait for more information but with Keke it’s “i need more information before I believe her” Majors leaking evidence in favor of his innocence is DARVO but what Darius is doing isn’t ?? What?? Make it make sense. I thought y’all cared about abuse victims. I thought y’all “believed women.” Y’all really lame af and are a bunch of hypocrites. Y’all don’t give a damn about abuse. Y’all don’t give a damn about the truth. Quick to bash our black men and even quicker to not believe our black women when the truth is staring you in the face. I’m just saying, keep that same energy. Period. I’m not saying you have to agree with me but if you’re gonna speak on Majors so heavily then I expect the same energy in ALL abuse allegations that go viral. Idgaf about you’re fantasies or fanfics. Y’all spoke on DV under the guise of being survivors or knowing survivors or just plain being against it, so keep that same energy across the board.

also like. can we talk about twt users like turning it into an opportunity to be morally correct and pure because the amounts of tweets i've already seen that are like "block if you still support illumina!" "moots you follow /srs!!" because ofc you shouldn't support someone who has sexually assaulted people but, while you can't discount victims statements, especially while there is so little information, at the end of the day there is no hard evidence against him right now so the best thing to do is offer support to the possible victim and keep your mouth fucking closed about it. not to mention all the shit people are posting with no tw it's insane to me. anyways sorry for the rant idk it pisses me off lmao

I think ppl just truly dont understand that getting angry at him does not equate to supporting her at all. in fact if i had been hurt like that by a longtime friend and ppl started doing virtue signaling twt activism id be really pissed off

[multifandomangel]

i’ve watched shubble since i was in elementary school, so i didn’t have to think twice about choosing to support her and making a conscious effort to not support her abuser.

but to those who may need a little more convincing: i hope your moral compass points you in the right direction. i hope you can look past those nostalgic pandemic years and realize that this situation isn’t about how you feel or the fond memories you have. it’s about shelby and the abuse she had to put up with during that relationship.

always support the victim, even if the abuser is your “favorite streamer” or “makes good music”. ALWAYS support the victim.
