current crush makes me crazeyyy

[non-un-topo]

Have to thank my partner for realizing before I did that talking about kids with people makes me extremely dysphoric --- whereas I thought I just had a problem and hated children or something lol

[hippodamoi]

i read a fanfic that pissed me off so badly i'm arguing with the authors in my mind. i don't want to leave mean reviews but jesus fucking christ

edit i commented on it because i am actually that disgusted

[chickenoptyrx]

You do so right by z Broly, you understand his potential. Your au with him and Trunks is a delight

Glad we all appreciate my blatant misrepresentation of the character 😌 im partly joking but man fr, 12 year old me would hate that instead of him bein a badass edgy monster, I draw him as.. *checks notes* .. an immature loser with bad coping mechanisms uwu

Ok but in true ask tradition! :U im hijacking this ask to talk about a dumb theory thats been rolling around in my head for like 2 years now: android 16 and broly similarities:

Ok so. If you aren't aware. The android arc of dragon ball was originally going to focus on the androids 19 & 20 and trunks even names them specifically

But Toriyamas former editor, Kazuhiko Torishima, didn't like them as the main antagonists and so Toriyama changed it to focus on 17 & 18 as the bad guys and introduced 16 as a sort of mystery

Now. This gets almost completely dropped once that same former editor ALSO doesn't like these androids and cell becomes the main villian for the arc (yeah yeah, the bomb thing is technically *there*, but its so inconsequential most people forget its even a thing :T )

So. Idk exactly when movie 8 went into production, but we know Brolys LSSJ form was inspired by trunks SSJ grade3 form that appears several chapters after cell has been introduced and the androids have become power-up fodder, so im gonna argue its safe to say the decision to move away from their story had been made

(side tangent that I find absolutely hilarious btw- despite gokus commentary in the HTC, SSJ grade 3 was the strongest form of ssj we saw at this point, so its pretty appropriate to use it as the basis of the strongest scariest ssj form.... rrriiiiiiiiggght up until toriyama introduced SSJ2 on Feb 2, 1993- near exactly 1 month before the first Broly movie hit theaters. Completely undermined what, up til then, looked like a trend in stronger form = bigger and beefier right as the big beefy strongest guy ever movie came out 🤣 absolutely love it!)

So anyways. The movies overall also tend to have varying degrees of similarities with recent arcs in the show and Toriyama, while not overly involved, would give the studio designs and story notes. And. Idk. Yall can tell me im reaching if ya want, but: A guy who's made into a weapon by his father who's on a quest for revenge and has this conflicting view of his son as both someone he feels he failed to protect, someone he cares about, but also as a tool for that revenge, and someone who's destructive power hes become deeply afraid of.. now where have we seen somethin like that 🤔 may be an extra reach but I also think its neat that despite their different face shape, Toriyamas gave em the same expression

Lol they're also both just ridiculously tall bastards. Like for no gd reason. And yeah, to me atleast, it explains why hating goku specifically gets shoehorned into brolys backstory (listen I can absolutely do the mental gymnastics to make it make sense! I'm fine with it! Its fine! I actually like it! ... but it IS a dumb shoehorned plot point! Both things can be true D:< ) look just lookit these tall ass shits

Anyway. My last note is just this statement from Toriyama about 16 and Gero. The way gero is presented is really in line with how I see Paragus as this tragic failure of a father- honestly caring about his kid, but letting grief and revenge drive him into conflicting corners where he wants revenge FOR the life denied his son, but also actively shaping his son into such a terrifying weapon that ultimately hed rather his kid just never be conscious cause thats the 'only way to keep them safe'

“Dr. Gero’s son who died young a long time ago served as the visual model for Android 16. He was a high-ranking soldier for the Red Ribbon Army but was shot down by the enemy. Dr. Gero reserved special feelings for 16 as “his son,” and although he equipped 16 with immense power and a frightening destructive device, he didn’t want to see him be defeated on the battlefield and thus programmed him to have a gentle personality. 16 was consequently considered a failed creation.” The smaller caption below Toriyama’s quote reads: “Was the reason Dr. Gero didn’t want to activate 16 perhaps because of his parental love to not see him destroyed?”

I just got to 2x15 and I used to be an ardent defender of The Betrayal™️ like “well DUH it was OBVIOUSLY the right decision to make, Clarke would’ve done the same thing!” which yeah I still kinda stand by canon-wise but like… writing-wise is it just me or is the whole thing kind of dumb 😭 Like they were already winning??? There was no point in not just killing Emerson and Cage and all the others and freeing the Sky People and civilians??? The Sky People have made powerful allies, can cure Reapers, and are the only reason they’ve made it this far and she just leaves them to die??? I don’t know, unless Lexa was like, really fuckin sure that Clarke could handle things just fine on her own, it doesn’t make any kind of logical sense to me if I really think about it for more than a few seconds.

It feels kind of out of character for Lexa too, like the Grounders inside Mount Weather are an army waiting to be set free to defeat the Mountain Men, are likely willing to die for the cause and the greater good (which Lexa literally said in the previous episode that you should be able to tell your people to die for you!) — like, bad thing: many of the Grounders inside the Mountain die fighting. But good thing: the Mountain Men are defeated and in the long run the Grounder suffering under their oppression which has lasted 97 years finally ends. It seems like a worthy sacrifice to me and I just think it’s an odd, contradictory heel-turn for Lexa to suddenly make.

I don’t know am I making any sense here or am I literally the only one overthinking this 😂

Oh bby I have talked about this before

And I'll do it again 🥴

No it really did make no sense beyond juat setting up the adversarial plotline between Clarke and Lexa and furthering the dynamics between Skaikru and the clans.

Realistically, logically, strategically - it made no sense. None. Cuz, even beyond just what you're saying, Lexa taking the deal in turn means the MM keep the skairats. Whom they were harvesting bone marrow from. Which allowed them to walk freely outside.

Considering???? That they had every intention of wiping out the Grounders, whyyyy in god's fucking name would Lexa "I got a phat ass and love stinky blonde bitches" Kom Trikru willingly provide the very key that would allow them easier ability in the future to annihilate her people??

It's? Illogical? And fucking nonsense?

But I'm supposed to believe that she made that choice? I'm supposed to believe that someone who won her conclave at the age of like 11-12, who beat and bartered 12 warring clans into submission, who found her lover's severed head in her bed and then still accepted the murderer into her alliance for the best of her people... I'm supposed to believe she would take such a short-sighted, lopsided deal? Really? Really?

I mean when you look at it from just a narrative perspective, yes of course it makes sense. Sacrifices have to be made yada yada, my people or yours blah blah blah, she loves her but had to choose her people bing bong balsjdjslk. I get it, I do, and it was a very compelling moment to watch. Truly, I love that episode, it was devastating and shocking and they acted it so gd well it still holds up. Like every rewatch makes my lil gay heart clench, and I'm not kidding. But take even one step back and look at the entire picture of the situation and actually who Lexa is as a person and leader, and the whole fucking plot just falls apart

Hey if It's not bothering to you, i want to ask you a question about how did you manifested lighter skin, i mean my story is same like you but around that i also have desire to have lighter tone, cz i Don't look gd in THIS tone also i Don't have a good features also I'm fat, so i really desire to be lighter and skinny and beautiful, actually when i used some fairness cream i became little lighter and i looked so beautiful cz this colour actually suited me, can you plz give you manifestation method,

Hi dear! I didn’t manifest it actually I would say I used products to change it..

I changed it because I felt good in this skin tone too I really liked the golden skin (not pale) it matched my features.. I am so glad people don’t change their skin tone just because others are forcing them too since I have faced a lot of racism because I was a black girl.. I used sandalwood soap since kid and it changed my skin tone and also recently I started using koijic acid soap orange one which is really famous these two really helped me with my skin and also gave even skin tone (which I was so insecure of)

I would best recommend these two I always use them and also it takes years I would say for sandalwood but koijic acid soap takes like two years maybe cause I am still using this for 3 months now and it worked wonders for dark spots

These two are enough and also use brightening lotion after using it cause the koijic one can dry out (also research about it before using please)

I also use tumeric (find one which doesn’t stain too much) plus yogurt combined every time which is good for skin and helps to reduce skin cancer and all and it also has brightening effects

(I just hope this doesn’t reach the wrong audience cause I am fine with talking about skin tone and all cause after all it’s just body at the end of the day and we are all just consciousness so why bother and just live the way u want to live and be happy about my body and I am so happy now that I look so beautiful.. it’s all our perception.. as long as you don’t change yourself for others and you change it for yourself then it’s all good)

And I have been skinny since childhood dear so I didn’t really think about fat except I have a little belly so idk about much about that so I would suggest you have an alter ego like that would help?

[magnetothemagnificent]

So how do we feel about Christians using the priestly blessing?

Some background - my family was Jewish, I'm the only one who is Jewish (I converted). My brother is Christian and his wife is a pastor. I noticed that they have started saying the priestly blessing over their kids before bed, and he said it over my nephew in church during his dedication. It has rubbed me wrong since I first heard them say it before bedtime one night, but I need someone smarter than me to help me out here lol.

They also dipped their toes into "friday night sabbath dinner" a while back, but have since stopped (thank gd). They also had a kiddush cup at their wedding (they didn't know that's what it was till I pointed it out), and they used that for their friday dinners too.

I guess I just need some help with explaining to them in a simple way why this stuff is wrong for them to be doing because I think they genuinely don't know. I think they might think that because "we're Jewish", that it's fine. But really my biggest question is about the priestly blessing, because it just rubs me wrong but I don't have the right language to explain why (and if) it's totally wrong to them.

Ooof yeah the Priestly Blessing is a no-no for Christians.

First of all, the Priestly Blessing is called the Priestly Blessing because it's traditionally said only by Kohanim to the rest of the Jewish people. This is something that's strictly genetic- nearly all Kohanim share a Y-haplotype linking them all to one ancestor. Jewish priesthood is inherited via an unbroken patrilineal chain.

While Jewish parents, Kohen or not, sometimes recite the Priestly Blessing when blessing their children before Shabbat and holidays, it's not the same.

Your family is not Jewish, it's not right for them to recite Jewish prayers. I don't know if you'll be able to convince them, because unfortunately Christians who are very stubborn in their appropriation of Judaism are hard to convince. Maybe try telling them how it makes you feel as a Jew, and how their behaviour makes you feel uncomfortable?

Honestly good luck, because that sounds like a shitty situation to be in.

[yukiblob]

Hello there Yukiblob (or just Yuki? I'm a little unsure, sorry...) Hope all is well in your life!

Saw you were doing an ask game so I've got a few questions! ✨, 🥊, and ♥️ for Theodora, Levi, and Ziya? Hopefully that's not too much, but if it is, maybe just 🥊 for all three?

Hi hi you can call me whatever u like 🤗

❤️-what is your ocs best memories

✨-how did u come up with the ocs name

🥊-what do they love to do? What do they hate to do

Theodora

❤️- she doesn’t have much due to her just fighting her whole life but her best memories are with baby Levi!! She used to babysit him when Dahila was still super injured . She loved taking care of him because he was adorable (lmao was) She loved playing with him and creating cool fighting scenarios . She loves seeing him grow into a fine young man and is super proud of who he became. She cherishes all of moments with Levi.

✨- I was talking with some friends on discord and I had to quickly give her a name because they were asking for it 🧍🏽‍♀️Not the coolest way but it’s a nice name 🤷🏽‍♀️

🥊- she loves to fly (lol of course she does) it feels nice to soar in the air looking down on the terrain ,where your the only one there and just your thoughts and wind in your ears. Anyways she hates taking care of Vasilios🤦🏽‍♀️

Levi

❤️- He has so many 😊😊 His best memory was on his 15th birthday! Idk if I’m getting this right in the BC universe at 15 you’re technically an adult. Sooo Dahila being the good mom that she is decides to pass down her sword to him ! It is (and will forever be) the best gift he ever received. He will forever treasure that sword and one day will pass it down to his kids ( if they decide to be swordsman).(yes he also cried)

✨- I think the name just slowly appeared in my head . Idk how but I guess imaging whole story lines in your mind does things to you.

🥊- he loves to chill and hangout with his friends! It’s always nice to relax and talk about nothing with your bros( bros being just Mathew lmao) He hates doing chores for Sister Marget( not my oc this is HybridanaFrost’s oc) according to Levi she’s “very mean and took my seasoning 😠”) It’s not like he will tell her though.

Ziya

❤️- oof he surprisingly has one. On his birthday the golden dawn surprised him for his birthday!!! It was his second birthday there and by that time he has done so much for the GD. It was mimosa’s and Klaus’s idea to do it and they decided to recruit the rest of them. He will forever treasure that day since it’s the nicest thing anyone has done for him!!

✨- I saw the name while looking for a Roblox username. I’ve never forgot it since because it’s such a beautiful name !! Like I imagined having a pretty character with that name and I decided to make him 🤗

🥊- He loves to hang out with his animal friends and garden!! It’s super relaxing to him😆 He hates going on missions with Langris or Alecdora. He can’t stand them and they can’t stand him 🤷🏽‍♀️

[dimiclaudeblaigan]

Hiiii, I just wanted to say Thank You, legitimately, for all of the very very good shinon posts you've made (you've hit the nail on the head why I like him so much as a character (also I'm playing through por for the first time and gd the growth in RD was so visible to me right away (for him and jill, but seeing soren act as he has legit surprised me and now i am going 'i can fix him' towards soren). Also! I am a big fan of Shinaff as well <3

Do you have any thoughts or posts on Zelgius, Tibarn, or Naesala? I'd love to hear more of your thoughts and with those 3 being....well, themselves, I'm very curious :3

THANK YOU FOR READING THEM ALL. Also THANK YOU for loving him!!! I'm so happy to know someone is seeing his growth from both games.

I actually recently met someone in another fandom who told me they've always been a Shinon fan and grew up around people who were also fans so they never even realized how hated he is in the fandom. I was like DAMN, wish I grew up with you guys lmao. It's so hard being a huge fan of him when people don't bother looking past a single trait, but will excuse it in Soren just because he's the resident gay twink (and idk that he's even gay more than just Ikeromantic LMAO).

I love Soren but he's arguably worse than Shinon in the bad habit department that everyone hates Shinon for, given that his reasons for being kinder to laguz is only for Ike and not for personal growth, whereas Shinon's growth is because he's realized he's been wrong and again, also why I argue his supports with Janaff are so incredibly important to him. It's like the mid development that's missable in a given playthrough, but so important as the bridge between games.

I know I had an ask once about Jeritza and Zelgius that I believe @reneethegreatandpowerful sent, but I can't find it now and I've had so many asks that wading through them, tags and all, was fruitless LOL. Otherwise I might have said some things about Naesala here and there, but not really Tibarn. When it comes to Tellius I don't talk much about the overly beloved characters because other people do it all the time anyway.

I do find both of them interesting in that Tibarn was pretty nasty originally, and when I recently replayed PoR I realized that nowadays, if I'd been playing for the first time, that I would have leaned more toward Naesala's arguments at the laguz gathering. I think because back then, my first time playing, I was basically just a kid (I mean this was in like 2005ish? I was very young) so I kind of was lured in with thinking Naesala was "bad" at first (I came around to him eventually, but little me didn't use her brain in video games as much as I would've liked her to when she was in grade school LOL).

That's a really generalized point overall, but mainly just to give you an idea that yeah, I think about them! I just don't write about them as much because Shinon needs the help more LMAO.

If you have any specific questions though I'm totally fine with answering them!

Also fuck yeah for the Shinaff fans. We are smol in number but we are powerful in brain. >:3

[supercantaloupe]

lying face down on the floor

didn't get my internship. autism swag too strong for the kennedy center i guess i mean why else would i be rejected from three separate internship positions already. they couldn't handle me (<- trying to act cool about losing an opportunity in her dream job/field)

but it does mean i can go to spain this summer. which. i mean. spain is cool. excited to go back. and i love getting to travel and play. even if i do have to pay for the trip (on a scholarship, but still) myself instead of doing a job and getting paid for it.

although it is technically a mission trip with a korean church group's youth orchestra so i have no idea if i'll like. have anyone to hang out with or relate to. idk i guess i'll just bring a book to read while everyone's in bible study or whatever. not like i've had much luck in the past making friends with anyone whilst traveling even when they're my peers...except when i went to italy with my own youth orchestra in high school...i always get along better with other music people but like. idk. i don't see myself getting super buddy buddy with a bunch of kids and i have no idea who there'll be in terms of other adults to associate with either. idk. i'll enjoy the scenery and food at least

i need to look for a new job for the summer now tho. probably retail or food service. which. will probably be soul sucking. but. i need something to do and some way to earn cash. and it's just until the end of august...at least i have the fellowship lined up for next fall thank fucking gd. if i didn't. idk. i'd just melt into a puddle of goo or something

oh and i have to cancel my gig with another local orchestra too. i was supposed to play EH on scheherezade for a concert in june with them but it's during the spain trip so. i feel bad about cancelling on them but at least it's with a month and a half of warning. plus i offered to lend/rent them my instrument cause i don't need it for my trip. that way at least they can have someone cover the part without me and maybe i can make a little bit of money from it...not much tho i don't have the heart to charge a lot

well i went over to see the apartment again and got a few more things sorted out there. i'll be switching to the smallest room rather than the biggest now which is fine cause i don't need a big bedroom and the rent is cheaper and very reasonable for this city. i get extra storage and desk space in the basement too since i have the smallest bedroom. and i'm buying a bunch of furniture from an outgoing tenant including bed desk chair and dresser for relatively cheap too so i don't need to get or move any big pieces like that myself, convenient. i'll probably move in first week of may and boy am i looking forward to it. i want undergrad to be over already i am so tired of being here

oh also dan texted today to tell me he's sick! fucking wonderful! he said he got someone from the conservatory to cover which i think he means for tonight's rehearsal? honestly i don't even care at this point if he's out for the concert tomorrow i or his backup contact will cover the first parts for him but i will go literally fucking insane if he's still out of it by sunday. he says it's just something he ate and he should be fine by tomorrow but You Can Imagine Why I'm Not The Most Confident. i mean fucking hell i haven't even met the second player he got for my trio yet...we're supposed to rehearse tomorrow afternoon for my recital sunday morning. and brother i feel like an e string about to snap

[ranseiuniter]

headcanon; I cannot believe myself for not having this written as a headcanon. I'm pretty sure me and Kris had at least started a thread with it a long time ago, but man. So anyway, now that I've referenced it half a dozen times: let's talk about Ignis.

So, to preface: the reason Ignis invaded Aurora to begin with was, basically, they were kind of desperate. Living in a literal active volcano (who the fuck thought that was a good idea, actually?), they've been struggling with food shortages. Aurora did have an alliance with them, and trade agreements and what have you, as the Most Major producer of their food, but Aurora and Ignis were also not exactly, like, friends. Their alliance was out of begrudging necessity at best and following the invasion on Aurora when Hiroko was a child, even Aurora was struggling to keep up production enough to fill both Ignis' needs and their own. Part of that agreement was that Hiroko's elder cousin was married to Hideyoshi because, you know, political marriages.

And then Osamu died! Suddenly the warlord is a fucking 17 year old little girl and, like........ come on. Alliance schmiance. It's basically the perfect opportunity, considering Aurora is both deeply under-manned and instead of their notoriously strategic former warlord, who fended off an invasion from a SIGNIFICANTLY more powerful kingdom, it was a totally untested kid, basically. There was no way Hideyoshi could lose, right?

The initial attack on Aurora was sort of botched due to various factors (I believe what we agreed was that it was intended to be an ambush of sorts, and because Aurora had such a small, and I mean SMALL army at the time, literally just over twenty or so gd men, as long as the Warlord could be defeated, it would be easy! Right?), at least partially thanks to Hiroko discovering Oichi and her helping to spot the coming attack. So, yeah, bad scene, but Aurora managed to walk away from it.

Needless to say? Hiroko was FUCKING. PISSED. Hiroko basically had to decide how to respond, quickly. She did not have the manpower to face Ignis directly in retaliation, so she attempted negotiation. And given the terms were more or less Peacefully Surrender or we don't really have a choice, Hiroko was MORE pissed and said, you know what?

Fine. We surrender. Aurora's soldiers will serve in Ignis, since you're suddenly interested in conquering Ransei. I'll have them report here and once I speak with the rest of my kingdom we can Formally Surrender with all the fucking pomp and circumstance you expect and work out the Exact Terms of how Aurora is going to function as a vassal state to Ignis.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how Hiroko ambushed Ignis. With her soldiers now reporting to Ignis and Hiroko coming to "formally" surrender alongside her retainers, she instead ambushed Hideyoshi and had her own men infiltrate the castle. (I like to imagine she found a way to bring along her father's firearm and used it in that battle because that's how fucking pissed she was. She was ready to shoot this man or literally die trying.) Long story short, Hiroko was able to basically force Hideyoshi to surrender by cutting off the castle from any sort of help (though not without a few hiccups, which resulted in Taiki's face getting fucked up real bad). Hideyoshi was exiled from Ignis (in retrospect maybe creating more problems in the long run, but Hiroko wasn't exactly keen on the implications that Outright Killing another warlord would likely have for Aurora) and Hiroko took over as Warlord of both kingdoms. Though Ignis was, uh, definitely questionable for a bit after that, she was able to cement her rule by instating new trade policies, an open border between Ignis and Aurora, and basically incentivizing some Ignid citizens to take over some of the land that had gone unused since the Dragnor invasion many years prior in order to increase the overall food production in order to provide for both kingdoms. (This solution would persist as an agreement between Aurora and Ignis following the war and, like, you'd think it would be the easiest and first solution but Ransei is full of motherfuckers with more pride than brains sometimes.)

tl;dr Hiroko kicked off her conquest of Ransei by saying a major fuck you to Hideyoshi in particular.

The club was already packed by the time my shift started. I could feel the presence of the loud music and bass pass through me like a ghost taking possession of its host. The neon lights were moving, flashing and zipping around and across the place in a frenzy. People were dancing, grinding against each other and making out while others already crowded the bar waiting for their drinks and to be attended to.

Show time.

"Hi, welcome to The Coup d'Etat. What can I do for you?" I smiled at the group of ladies waiting at the bar.

"Hi, can you open up a bar tab for us?" one of them, a brunette, asked, nodding towards her friends, who were drooling at the sight of me - nothing new.

"Sure. Will you be paying in cash or card?"

"Cash, we're splitting the bill."

"Okay, what would you like for your tab?"

"Soju will be fine. Thanks."

I took out a tray and some glasses before striding over to the fridge to collect the soju. After filling the bucket with ice, and placing the bottles of soju inside, I placed the bucket into the tray and pushed it toward the customers. "Here you go. Let me know when you want to close your tab."

"Sure thing."

They left for their booth, but not before one of them winked at me.

As I was about to move on to the next batch of customers, I bumped into a blonde woman who, from the looks of it, was in a rush to get to wherever she wanted to go.

"I'm so sorry." She apologized with a bow until she had a good look at me. "Hey, you must be the new guy GD told me about. The guy I'm supposed to monitor during my shift."

I quirked an eyebrow, "Sounds like your boss doesn't trust me."

She waved her hand, "He does that to every new employee. Heck! He did that to me when I first started working here. I'm Chaeyoung, by the way." She stuck out her hand towards me.

I shook her hand. "Ollie."

"Well, Ollie. Normally, I would train you on what to do and how to handle the POS system, but it seems like you know your way around it. So, I'll serve the tables while you handle things here at the bar. Sound good?"

"Sure thing."

The rest of the evening was pretty much uneventful aside from tending to the customers. Chaeyoung was anywhere and everywhere, taking orders, clearing the tables, and checking on the customers while also helping me at the bar when need be. I was pretty much accustomed to the nightlife in the club; watching people dance and have the time of their life, the music, the lights (and thank God the ventilation in the club was good).

"You okay there?" I asked the blonde who was leaning against the bar and groaned.

"I'm just glad that I can rest for a bit." She said. "Why do the weekends always be so damn busy?"

"Well, a lot of people like to spend their weekends going to clubs and bars, especially college and university kids," I said. "Besides, more people. More tips."

She groaned again. "And the fact that I'm a broke uni kid is not doing me any favours."

"Well, I wouldn't know since I'm not a uni kid."

She looked at me confused. "Did you drop out?"

"Nope. I never went to college or university after I graduated high school. Went straight to the military and left two years later."

"How old are you?"

"Thirty."

"Holy shit!" her eyebrows flew up. "You're old."

"Hey, I'm not that old." I frowned. "Gosh. What is up with you kids and thinking thirty is old."

"That's literally the age to already be married and have kids."

"Yet your generation is already getting married and having kids at eighteen."

She opened her mouth to retort, but no sound or syllable left her mouth. I chuckled at her reaction, knowing that she knew I was right.

"Anyway!" she changed the subject. "Where are you from? You don't sound like you're here. Not to forget, you look way too exotic to be Korean."

"I'm Chinese, but I grew up in Australia."

"Oh, my God! You're an Aussie!" she squealed, switching to English with a strong Aussie accent.

I chuckled. "Yes, I'm an Aussie."

"Chris and Felix are going to be so hyped when I tell him we have another Aussie on the team."

"How many are there."

"It's just the three of us. Other foreigners work here, but either way, it's good to meet another foreigner. Us foreigner folks gotta stick together, am I right?"

I hummed, conceding with her statement.

Suddenly the music stopped, and the lights turned. My eyes found the stage where the DJ booth was. I saw smoke lurking around the stage and blending with the deep blue neon lights until a song with a fusion of moombahton and Latin trap music started playing. Eight feminine figures emerged and walked up to the stage and stood in line, four standing across from each other as though they made a path for someone.

The spotlight shined on the ninth dancer, a dark-haired woman whose hair was just above her shoulders and her bangs covering her forehead. She wore a white crop top with crystal tinsels along with a pair of denim shorts with a glitter belt around her waist and a pair of white glitter knee-high combat boots.

My eyes were focused on her as she walked up to the centre of the stage, and her dancers broke their formation. The way her body movement was in synch with the rhythm of the song. The expressions she made while she danced. Everyone's attention was on her and her alone.

"That's Lisa." Chaeyoung's voice broke me out of whatever spelt that woman had put me under.

I looked at her.

"The girl you're staring at." She clarified. "Her name is Lisa. She's one of the dancers here, and people pay a lot of money to see her perform, let alone give them a private performance in one of our VIP lounges. She's pretty good, ain't she?"

I turned my gaze back to the dancer. "I'm no dance guru since I can't dance to save my life, but she's pretty good, I guess."

"Oof! Don't say that in her presence, though. She will make sure you'll change that statement from pretty good to pretty amazing." She playfully bumped her shoulder against mine. "But she's pretty chill when she's off stage. A little mischievous but pretty chill."

I hummed, making no comment. Not that I needed to anyway. I did consider Chaeyoung's comment about this girl, but I decided to push it aside and not dwell much on it. It wasn't like I was going to see her outside of work, let alone talk to her. It was probably better that way.

"Well, break time is over." Chaeyoung stretched. "Those tables aren't going to serve themselves."

"Good luck," I said as she left the bar.

Let the Right One In

I watched This movie last night, and I'm just not thrilled with it. It was a super slow burn, 🐌 🔥 and that's usually alright with me, but it was a burn into something that wasn't quite a bang.

It started off interestingly, and had me wanting to learn more, but halfway through I just got lost. Not in the story, but my attention started to just disappear.

By no means, though, do I believe that it wasn't good. It just wasn't good for me. I feel like it focused much more on the children "going steady" than it did with the child monster. I know that it was supposed to be a romance, but it just didn't work, in my opinion.

How is it a coming of age story when one of them will never age? Also, Oskar irritated the hell out of me. Like he was definitely a kid I wouldn't want to be friends with. He acted so dumb sometimes (specifically like when he was swimming and wouldn't close his GD mouth, like what kind of idiot swims that way? But also his nose was running through the entire movie and he just kept slurping it up like it was a treat. Sickening)

I didn't like the kid(s) at all. Just because I thought Oskar was annoying doesn't mean I think he deserved to be bullied the way he was, but I can definitely see why he was an outcast. I'm sure that's why he was depicted that way, but it just straight up pissed me off. As for Eli, she was a well meaning monster. At times. I think she just liked him because he was the only one sitting around doing nothing with her when her adult keeper? 🤷🏼‍♀️ was out murdering his neighbors and getting their blood.

I don't think Eli liked doing it, but when it came down to it, she was going to kill. Plain and simple. One of the neighbors gets attacked and eventually turned into a vampire without really knowing what happened. And when she caught on fire.... I was kind of reminded of an A24 type movie with how big and almost artistic the flame was. It was crazy!

https://vimeo.com/20736490

And when the CGI cats attack, I kind of just loved how wild it was. Like I wasn't exactly ecstatic, but animals know what's up when there's evil in their presence

https://youtu.be/lmqQPyNsXpU?si=Kzp66CkT6bC0gOCY

There were times I think, like other kinds of indie horror, that the artistic shot was the most important element followed by pushing things further along in the movie. Most of the scenes set in the classroom were like that to me. And between you and me, that little jerk bully kid deserved more than what Oskar did to him when he clipped his ear. And secretly, I'm glad the movie ended how it did.

Speaking of the ending though, Oskar was such an idiot to just willing go up to the bullies while they were on the side of the pool 🏊‍♂️ like none of them were wanting to get in and if he would treat water long enough for the coch to get back, I think he would have been fine. But he just lets the older brother hold him under. 🤷🏼‍♀️ D.U.M.B.

The kids eventually go off into the world and that's how we end the movie. Not knowing where and what happens when one child grows up and the other lives forever? I don't care how old that creature is, I wouldn't want to be a grown ass adult whose soul mate looks 12. In this day and age, it's probably worse to be seen like that than as a vampire.

My feelings toward it are 6/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It wasn't a bad movie at all it just wasn't what I like in vampire movies. It was good though!!

Would I watch it again? Maybe I a bit. Not any time soon though if I'm being honest.

Does it need a sequel/prequel? I wouldn't say need but I would see either or. I do wonder how Eli came to be or where they both went afterwards. Directors choice 😉

Would I recommend it? Yeah, it's definitely something worth watching. It's just slow and kind of long. But again, not bad at all!

What did you think?

Sympathy: i feel bad for you

Empathy: i feel bad with you

Compassion: tell me how to help you feel better

Sympathy does make me change anything about myself, i just acknowledge that you're not ok. Empathy makes me crouch down to your level. I find within myself feeling that match, and i make you feel like you are not alone in it. Compassion is the action of trying to help someone, and bring them up. Trying to help. Helping them stand up. I relieve your suffering.

I want my child to be loved by everyone.

The nations will hate us. The same way that teacher treated you poorly for no good reason. Ive dealt wiyh that. People who dont lkke me for no good reason. Usually theyre girls.

Hi, my name is Dalya. I really love watching how inlove you are with being Jewish. It helps me with it. I just wanted to say that I bought the beanie hat this morning and was so happy to spread the beautiful moshiach energy message and give to Israel. I checked back a few hours later and saw that everything went on sale. I started thinking "uch, I should've waited a few more hours!" But then I said to myself "no, this was good, Hashem must have decided that I could give more and I'm happy to give!" To me, that's already embracing #moshiachenergy. Thank you so much for creating it!

What im trying to understamd

Its too much to want for people to treat you with respect. I think that i should be given respect. I should be treated like a queen. If you dont want to treat me like a queen, thats fine, i have no time for you. My life keeps moving. You are a blip. You dont need to like me. Its ok if you dont. Its your loss because im one of the good ones. Im funny, ik smart, im empathetic, im caring. I make sure everyone around me is ok. You are just saying what you see. Thats ur truth. Thats not the truth and i dont want to care about your truth. U know in the world.

Im in a destroy the world mood. Of course im depressed. My friends all get to be with eachother

You are a person who doesnt want to see me. U want control.

Are you a neiman marcus girl or a target girl?

Neither. Im a minimalist. I have style. I like to cwurate and edit my wardrobe and i want to

Im glad the hostiges were drugged. Number one psychologically speaking i think the emotions would be way too high otherwise. I would drug them as a jew just for that. I think anyone would pass out from that amount and kind of emotion. Number two , i wish they were drugged the whole time. For the sake of the hostiges, i hope they dont remember a gd damn thing. Would it be great if they got really angry to make the world understand? Yah, probably. But if im thinking about the hostiges- i hope they were drugged the whole time, i hope they cant remember a gd damn thing. Because the only thing worse than going through hell- is going through hell sober. I hope they were high as a kite. I hope the pain was limited. I think any second their sedetive is a blessing. It means they didnt feel things to the same extent they would have

If u think that it wouldve been a good idea for the hostages to return not drugged, you might not know how bad it was. I think it was such a blessing that they were on mood stabilizers

The most honest thing i can say

I dont appreciate you

I dont appreciate you

Me, being in america as school starts cuz im trying to make wveryone comfortable with my life prospects

Also me: u know, ive never done well in school, maybe ill just fail again, and itll be ok. Highschool didnt want to accept me, and they didnt want to give me a deploma either, maybe ill turn out fine anyway then.

What is something that the meaning changed since october 7th. Time changed- it slowed down and went too fast. Flights changed. My ticket went into the garbage. Good versus evil changed. The world changed. Seeing mashiach changed. The way we see mashiach. The idea of what people understand, how people spend money- what we spent it on changed. Suitcases changed. Stories changed. Politics changed. Our love of every jew no matter what they look like changed. I see abyone who believes in gd is a gd himself. We are stars. We are the whole universe. Crying changed. This picture i drew, encaspsulates it all. Pride in jews and love of jews changed i think for everyone. Caring about stupid things changed. But also breathing changed. I feel like i didnt breathe for at least a week. I didnt do anything that i should have.

[earthdeep]

been watching fe engage via a youtuber streaming it, and man I have never been more glad I wasn't hyped for a game.

on a technical level it seems... fine, though the added mechanics don't interest me (and the fact they added an honest to god gacha in the ring mechanic genuinely grosses me out lol). but on a presentation level it's just... what if we took everything annoying about fates, and then did that a hundred times over and more obnoxiously!

and like, no shade to those who are enjoying it. I am a resident Fates Liker myself (we do not see the conquest storyline. or most of corrin's s supports. it's fine. don't think about it.) but man. those character designs sure do make some choices. as do the voice actors. as was the decision to fill the cast with more kids than the gd dawn brigade.

but yeah this was around the point where I changed my mind abt getting 3h after the initial premise turned me off, but not this time. I'm sticking with my first impressions on this one.
