#imma bout to do something controversial

[stitcherofchaos]

Héctor (Coco) gives me Maglor vibes.

Which Molina characters do you think have tattoos? What are they?

I hc horvath has loads that double up as sigils and stuff.

Ohh!! @the-realharleyquin and I were just talkinga bout this on our way home last month!

agreed Maxim has tattooes. But i have this rlly cool idea that I've got detailed here for his tattoos and sigils here, which imma add more to as another buddy and I chat abt it ( @lethalwallflower go read her series)

I like the idea of Otto having some very small, very silly tattoo he got in college when drunk one night. It's shitty, and he never got another, but it was either a heart on his arm with 'mom' (Ignoring it's not there in the movie), or a simple diagram of... I don't know, an atom? just some silly science concept

Possibly controversial, however: Harding. Either he has a simple tattoo on his inner wrist that states his blood type and i kind of like the idea he's allergic to something used in the medical field but not common. but just a simple informational tattoo in case he's in an accident

Andres. Senna's name on his heart. She doesn't know about it either, bc there'd be no reason for her to. I also kind of like the idea of something like this or this on his calf or inner arm, that he got as a reward for a team one year.

Angel. (waves vaguely at him)

George Garea. I think he got something as a way to feel young before he and Ben got married, or they went and got some silly little lavender or pansy tattoo that matched and he'd look at it when he missed Ben.

The waiter from Vice. I dont know why I believe this. I have not yet watched Vice.

Everly Campbell. You don't become an art forager without getting permanent art in your skin. I'd like to think it has something to do with like... Van Gogh but Everly doesn't think deeply enough about him to get that. Probably a brutalism piece.

Pepperidge. lost a bet and got one. He needs to stop making bets.

Jimmy Styles; he and Gene got drunk. He was yelled at. Then made fun of. Then his wife got it too, then his daughters did too when they were able to as a way to keep making fun of his drunken mistake.

Rahad Jackson. Someone tattooed a dick onto his ass. He responded with giving them a drug with smth laced, depending on who it was, to either just have a bad trip or kill them. he covered it with a snake piece that went up his back. he did get high and did the entire piece in one sitting.

[squidleet]

I scooped poops, swept up the floor, folded towels, took out the garbage. I'm going to say something controversial.

I miss working.

I just miss having something I have to do. Like, as much as I have to do chores, and little tidies, it's not like a job.

Am I not trying hard enough to find real employment? Husband isn't pressuring me. He makes enough to support us, especially when I'm off my bullshit and mindful of spending (but imma bout to be on my bullshit because I am getting that black and white Trixie mirror. Husband already knows!)

Allegedly, I am starting school this summer, so like, do I want to try to be working and going to school? Not especially. But that's still 5 months to not be having income, and not have a real excuse.

Yall I can't believe I got fucking fired. 4ish? Months and I'm still seething. I still relive that day before bed. I still want to text and ask like wtf. I feel so stupid, so blindsided. I didn't matter.

Oh well guess I'll go put away the dishes.

[quinn-fucks-shit-up]

man, ok, imma say something kinda controversial now, and y'all better not get crazy 'bout it

i do not like Jonathan, I think he was let off too easy for being a creep

now, I understand that he's a very sympathetic character, he does go through a lot, and if he hadn't taken semi-nude photos of Nancy through a window at night without her consent, I would probably like him a whole bunch. personality-wise, he's my kind of guy

but damn, I'm just never gonna let that slide, because that was perverted as hell, and I don't think that it's alright in any context at all

in all actuality, I think Steve was totally justified in breaking his camera, I think Nancy should've been the one to do it, but I think it was definitely a thing that needed to be done, and, if I'm being honest, he probably deserved way worse

and the fact that he ends up with Nancy after?? I don't think I have the words to describe how fucked up that is

if you're a man and want to disagree with me, don't, I didn't ask for your opinion and you don't have to live with this kind of gendered attack, commited by one of the 'good guys', publicised on the silver screen with next to no ramifications afterwards, this is a real women's issue and you do not get to speak on it please and thank you

so yeah, I'm not thrilled about jonathan

edit: I don't ship stancy either, I think they're wrong for each other personally

[mariaiscrafting]

ahhhh ty ty ty <3

ok, so I think that what makes Dream act this way (iykyk) is how dreamwastaken became so big so quickly. and by quick I mean fucking lightning speed.

he didn't have enough time to learn enough about cc etiquette, especially in these three aspects: influence, boundaries and fanbase/stans/whatever you call it. I'll try to explain it:

• Influence: Does he know the influence he has? Like, when he hears that he is the myct with the largest fanbase, does he really process that? I remember he talked about not being able to control all of his fanbase and there's bad apples everywhere -- which is true, and that only like 1% of his fanbase breaks his boundaries (that include sending hate for him, harassing, doxing, etc. yk, basic twitter culture lol) but, honey, with your big ass fanbase, 1% is still a lot of people. As a content creator you *have* to be aware of that.

let's take the hbomb situation. First off, as a streamer, it's you that set the mood of the stream. Even if he was only messing around with his pals, even if they did say to do not send hate to hbomb, dt dunking on him created a toxic environment, which caused his fans being toxic towards hbomb and you know what happens next. Hell, when this happened, I was watching Tapl and he was watching them and he was crying laughing over them screaming bc they were just. so loud and so aggressive that it was kinda ??? Sirs, this is literally a Minecraft Stream lmaooo

my point is, that was not the road that dreamwastaken, 21M fans, should've taken. he don't condone his fans actions but he knows his fans are diehard and will always be on his side, he should be more careful before stating negative opinions, especially if its towards another person.

• Boundaries and Fanbase: He posted a list of his boundaries a while ago, idk if you know or seen it (btw please george copy your bestie for the love of god <3) but I'm not talking about those boundaries, I'm talking about the basic boundaries between cc and viewer. boundaries that, in my opinion, should exist between cc and viewer. I get that Dream is an open person, an oversharing type of open person if I may add, but I think he should take a step back regardless. When I heard that he was taking a time from twitter, I genuinely got so glad, not because he couldn't start any drama then, but because it would do so so good for his mental health. I'm not even that fond of him, it's just that for me, any cc taking a break or outright leaving twitter is a win for me. I know how RSD is hard to deal and honestly letting shit out it's better but dream you have dt you have bbh so please don't make things worse online 😭 I know how good can be to feel validation from millions of people but. it's not a good idea, especially in the state that his fanbase is on rn (this topic is kinda sensitive to talk abt for me bc people be outright ableist and hide it as criticism like. say that shit's not helping his reputation and whatever without acting like he's fucking. manipulating his fanbase for being affected by his rsd💀 or, on the other hand, don't say that hes just being adhd🤪 when he's just being an asshole like damn that's a Him thing bro lol)

(omg it's so big I'm so sorry and theres a part two I'm so sorry tumblr user messed-up-gal ToT) - morango 1/2

pt. 2:

Dream is the proof that the people who loves you can be your downfall. istg. Have you noticed that every drama that Dream enters, people usually get more mad abt how his fanbase reacts (85% they'll react in a bad way) than Dream himself? it's not always, but its definitely more likely. I'm not saying Dream is saint, he Is petty and his ego does him dirty and made him choke multiple times before,, But! i dont think hes a bad guy. he's literally just a dude. ok, he's a 21yr old white gamer man that has a trumpie past (maybe?? idk. I think hes cured now ig lol) so he's bound to do some shitty things but he still tries to get better and hopefully he'll mature. 21 is old enough but it's still so young, yk? I kind of lost my mind during the end and my eyes are literally begging to be closed so tl;dr: Its gonna be hard for him to become a better cc bc his fans don't let him be criticized (by infantilizing his adhd symptoms or the mob mentality as soon as someone says anything abt him), the honest criticism get lost between lies from antis that don't know shit, he still has a lot of growing up to do and overall he became famous too fast and he needs to learn things even faster bc as soon as there's not a single one dream hater on sight they'll turn their back and attack him instead lmao I hate twitter i definitely have more to say but I'm tired and my memory is shit. just-- hate dream if you want, love dream if you want, nobody is obligated to have an opinion but I wanted to express mine. have a lovely day! -morango 2/2

Aight, there's a lot to unpack here, so Imma try to only go into the points I have something to add to (here's what I talk about in each paragraph, if you want to jump to a specific point):

Speed of Dream's rise to fame

The "bad apples" in the Dream fanbase

Post-MCC HBomb stream

Not condoning versus actually condemning his fans

Manipulation & RSD

Criticism of Dream, his fanbase, and his brand

The “just a dude” argument, flipped

First, I agree that one of the many factors that has resulted in the current image Dream has set up for himself, the way his fanbase functions, the ways people hate on him, and the way the Dream brand functions, is the speed of his rise to fame. It's unique, and there are probably a hundred social/psychological angles that could be used to examine the exact effects of that speed upon all of these facets of the Dream Name; did rapid fame beget the rapid rise of unrighteous hatred, did those waves of hatred then instigate the rise of a surprisingly overdefensive fanbase, did that rapid fame get to his head and/or result in an inability to appropriately handle all the after-effects of rapid fame, etc.? That point you bring up, about how the speed of his rise to fame requires him to learn even more quickly, is so interesting to me. I think that maybe Dream expected to get pretty famous pretty quickly, hence the preparedness in regards to some mechanics of influencer fame- merchandise, business-building, networking, knowing how to manage his fanbase to best benefit him. But I don't think he expected to get this famous this quickly. This is all speculation of course, as are this entire post and your ask, but I think that he just couldn't anticipate having to learn how to handle enmasse controversy, waves of antis, or every Youtuber speculating/knowing about him; and yeah, that results in him having to learn all of these things very quickly, lest he allow his whole brand and fandom to fall apart.

Second, I disagree with the frequent argument that Dream's fanbase is only marginally toxic. Personally, I think that the circumstances of Dream's fame, his personality and management of his fanbase, and his brand of content have resulted in the very specific kind of stan that Dream stans are. I don't think this is simply a case of "all fandoms have a small percentage of assholes who take it too far;" rather, the nature of the community itself breeds the kind of mentality of "an asshole who takes it too far." I only even know this because I was a Dream fan (kinda a stan, I'm ngl). At one time, I watched every single Dreamwastaken & Dream Team video multiple times; I listened to the Manhunts on repeat, as though they were podcasts; I followed mostly smiletwt and dttwt accounts on mcyttwt; I had upwards of 10 tabs for AO3 DNF fics open on my phone at a time; I watched DNF and Dream Team Being A Family-esque compilations on repeat; I watched every George and Sapnap alt stream I possibly could; I went out of my way to defend Dream against Redditors and Twitter antis regarding the cheating scandal. For the latter half of 2020, and a couple months of 2021, I lived and breathed this part of the fandom; so when I say that Dream stans are a whole other breed than any other kind of mcyttwt stan, I say that because I used to be like that, too. I usually use parasocial very loosely or ironically, but Dream stans are genuinely one of the most parasocial fanbases I have ever seen or been a part of. The level of investment Dream stans have in this man's life, the lengths they will go to to defend him, the amount of psychonalysis and digging they do on his life and character, the amount of emotion he can evoke in them- it's taken to another level, man. This isn't just characteristic of a fraction of his fanbase; this is what the fanbase is like as a whole.

Third, I partially disagree with your take on the HBomb thing, but not in the way one might think? I actually empathize with the way they reacted much more than I thought I would, simply because I suspect I have RSD (also suspect I have ADHD, have for several months now) and I can see myself getting insanely frustrated because of something like that. Like yeah, it was "just a MC stream" or "just an MC game," but that's kinda disregarding the fact that something that might seem like "just a [insert inconsequential thing]" to a rational mind might have a major emotional consequence/take a major emotional toll on someone with RSD, or really anyone who gets easily impatient/angry about video games (Sapnap reminds me of many of my friends, in that way). The issues I, personally, had with the way they handled the HBomb situation is that these are simply explanations and reasons for my empathy; they are not excuses. I have no excuse when I get irrationally angry about something inconsequential in my own life, for a couple of reasons. One, because I am an adult and I need to learn how to handle my reactions and manage my own anger. Two, because as someone with many mental problems, it is my responsibility to learn coping mechanisms to ensure my own emotional stability and livelihood; this includes learning whatever I need to handle RSD- whether that be isolating myself from others when I know I will become violently/passionately angry about something, creating and sustaining a support system that can get me through bouts of extreme emotion, finding healthy emotional outlets for my negative emotions that won't harm myself or others, or a combination thereof. I don't think what they said about HBomb post-MCC was an irreversibly horrible thing, or anything. I think there were errors committed by two men who should be fully capable of foreseeing and preventing those errors, but I don't unconditionally hate Dream or Sapnap for the post-MCC stream or comments. I just wish they had made amends quickly, publicly, and sufficiently, because the greatest consequences from the whole thing weren't even from those two criticizing HBomb themselves; they were from the waves of backlash because of their immense influence on the MCYT fandom, which could've been prevented, if they had acted maturedly and responsibly after the stream.

Fourth, you’re right, that he doesn’t seem to condone his fans’ behavior. I detest the frequent anti argument that one of the reasons Dream should be criticized is because he explicitly uses his fanbase to attack others, or something of the sort. Personally, I think he created his fanbase in a very specific way and interacts with them in such a way so as to benefit him as much as possible, yes, but he never actually tells his fanbase to go and yell at or harrass anyone. Still, there is a significant difference between not condoning something and condemning something. It might seem unfair, and it might be annoying of me to say this, but I truly think that someone with this large a fanbase, especially one as overzealous as Dream’s, needs to be condemned every single time it goes on some kind of rampage/harrassment campaign. Either that, or Dream needs to make a definitive, permanent statement against any kind of harrassment of others on his behalf. I know he’ll occassionally make the odd tweet or serious stream addressing something his fanbase did, but one of the many reasons his fanbase keeps doing the same damn thing is because he’s so lukewarm and spotty about this condemnation. A fanbase like his needs to be given explicit guidance and boundaries for the numerous things they do in his defense- harrassing/doxing antis, harrassing people who criticize him who aren’t antis (respectful criticism, other CCs, other MCYT stans, etc.), harrassing the people he critcizes (i.e., HBomb), speculating about his personal life (his relationship with his gf, his mental health/ADHD, his romantic life, his childhood, etc.), and speculating about his relationships with his friends and colleagues.  My personal ideology is that, if you have significant influence over someone or a group of people, you are at least somewhat responsible for the things those people do or don’t do, if it at all relates back to you. I’m so fucking tired of the argument that CCs aren’t responsible for what their fans do. Obviously they aren’t responsible for every single one of their fans, and obviously they can’t fully control their fans at the end of the day. But I think there are certain things that reach such a level of extremity that does make those CCs responsible. This can be measured by either scale or intensity; that is to say, if a CC’s fanbase does things on an extremely large scale, or one person from/a fraction of the fanbase does something really extreme, then the CC is made all the more responsible. Another CC I’ve always had trouble discussing with other people on this subject is Pewdiepie, in particular, about the extremists in his fanbase. Because the things a small handful of his fans have done in reference to him and/or in his name were so fucking extreme, I thought Pewdiepie had to take at least some responsibilty. Along a similar vein, because the things Dream’s general fanbase does are so widespread and on such a massive scale, Dream has to take at least some responsibility.

Fifth, okay. Hmmm. I want to tackle this point you made about the ableism he faces in some criticism of him carefully and with empathy, but not coddling. One, I do think a lot of the criticism he receives for the ways he handles criticism (post-cheating Tweets, reactions to John Swan, post-MCC HBomb stream, etc.), disregard his RSD and can be oftentimes ableist. I’ve actually encountered people irl who criticize this aspect of Dream’s character, and have had to explain to them their disregard for how ADHD/RSD affect neurodivergent people’s reactions to criticism. But - and this is a big, and very controversial but - I think mentally ill/disordered people can 100% leverage their mental illness/disorders for the sake of manipulation. This is actually something I’ve learned from a psychiatrist, regarding the ways people I know and I handle our anxiety and depression. This manipulation can be unwitting or intentional, but it is entirely possible, and the possibility shouldn’t be entirely dismissed as ableist. Living with a mental illness or disorder that others know about/that you are very public about puts you in an interesting position to receive frequent sympathy, empathy, and/or pity. I’m not saying that empathy for Dream having ADHD/RSD is entirely unjustified; on the contrary, I have frequently expressed how I can relate to his ADHD symptoms and have defended him for expressing those symptoms, both on mcytblr and in real life. I am saying that Dream fans tend to use his ADHD as a kind of shield for a lot of criticism levied against him, including the supposition that he could be manipulating his fanbase to defend him because of his public expressions of RSD. So yes, my theory is that Dream knows how to levy every aspect of his life for his personal gain and for the growth of his brand, and that includes his ADHD. I think he has courage for his openess about his ADHD, I think his openness has contributed to the rise in awareness of mental health and empathy for neurodivergent people within Gen Z, and I think at least some of his expressions of RSD publicly/online weren’t intentionally made public. All that being said, I also think he has to know just how much his fanbase cares about defending him for his ADHD, and I think he has to know that some of the things he does related to his neurodivergence endear him to his audience, in a coddling, baby-ing, mildly ableist sorta way.  Maybe this is all incredibly presumptuous of me. Of course, I can never know the real intentions behind any Dream video, Tweet, or stream. Maybe I’m just projecting, because I can see myself doing just this, if I had the maturity I had circa 2018-2019. Idfk know, man.

Sixth, I actually agree with you here, people probably do get more mad at his fanbase than him. Dream puts out content pretty seldomly, considering the frequency of content output for other Youtubers/streamers in his field/at his brand size. And yet, he has received masses of criticism. Considering that the things Dream himself does/says do not entirely correlate with the amount of criticism he receives, I think it’s a logical assumption that a lot of that criticism actually goes back to the size of his presence online, rather than the man himself. That is to say, because of the massive community he’s amassed, the exponential growth of his fanbase, their presence on every single social media site and in virtually every single Internet space/fandom, and the size of his metaphysical presence in his fields, Dream is much bigger than the man himself, so the criticism he receives will, at least in part, be a direct or indirect result of all these other aspects of the Dream brand.  Something I don’t think many Dream fans/stans, or even most MCYT fans in general, understand, is that Dream isn’t just “one guy” in the eyes of the Internet- at least, not anymore. He hasn’t been for nearly a year. Like Pewdiepie, Mr. Beast, and other CCs who have amassed similar levels of fame and wealth via Internet content creation, Dream is a brand now, and most people will treat him as such. He isn’t just some uwu soft boy playing Minecraft anymore. He is on a whole other level from any other MCYT in his friend circle or colleague interaction bubble. His words will never again live in a vaccum or private bubble, his friend circle will never again be under anything less than intense scrutiny, his past actions will never again be simple mistakes or silly errors, his words will never again be casual tweets or streams for laughs among a couple thousand followers. Dream’s name represents something much bigger than just the one man. As such, all aspects of his brand, including his fanbase, will tie back to him and, ultimately, to any general criticism of him.

I’m not saying I like any of this, and I actually think the evolution of influencers from people to a marketable brand with similar mechanisms, responsibilities, and liabilities as a corporation is some kind of late capitalism nightmare fuel; I’m just stating my own observations and theories as to why so much anti-Dream criticism seems to be directed at his fanbase, rather than him.

Seventh, he’s just a guy, you’re right, but I think a lot of the antis on Tumblr understand this more than you know. As I’ve seen it, the sentiment among much of the “DSMP stans DNI” crowd seems to be that of “Dream/other MCYTs are such ‘bad’ people, so why do their fans stick to these mediocre, racist men, when there are so many better people to watch/better content to consume?” We know this argument is flawed for many of the obvious reasons - the conflation of all MCYTs’ actions regardless of individual identity, the equating of a CC’s fanbase’s morality to that of the CC they enjoy watching, the exxageration of any error MCYT CCs have committed as bigotry/racism, the fundamental misunderstanding and misinformation that led antis to believe this exxageration of the facts, etc. But I want to focus on the general, underlying sentiment of, “why not watch someone better, when your creator is problematic?” Sometimes, I ask this of Dream stans. Yes, being mildly ignorant, getting involved in the scandals Dream has, and being a right-leaning/libertarian centrist in the recent past all seem like harmless things, all things considered. One could say Dream isn’t nearly as bad as many antis who are misinformed seem to believe, and that there are much worse CCs Dream stans could be watching and creating fan content for. But I think what Tumblr antis wonder is, aren’t there also much better MCYTs/CCs people could be watching and stanning? Because he’s just some guy, right? Is his content truly so exceptional or is he really so exceptional a person, that people have to stick by him, despite the things that spike up regarding his current or past actions? I think that’s what made me finally decide to stop watching Dream. I realized he was just Some Guy. The Dream Team was a comforting dynamic to indulge in, DNF was a cute ship to read and speculate about, and Manhunts were fun videos to watch; however, once the Reddit posts came out and I read them in-depth, the cost-benefit analysis tipped over to the “not worth it” side for me. I realized Dream’s content, while fun and comforting, was not entirely unique, and wasn’t worth sticking around for, given what I then knew about his past political leanings. If he is just Some Guy, then there are a hundred more like him out there. There a hundred more ships, a hundred more found family dynamics, a hundred more entertaining and skilled Minecraft players. So while I agree with you on the point of people being allowed to love him regardless because he is just a guy, at the end of the day, I think that, if we are to believe that sentiment or use that argument in such a manner, we should also understand the flip side- that, if he is just some guy, why is it worth sticking around? To that I say, maybe because people just enjoy the simple things they enjoy.

Anyways, I wholly agree with your tl;dr. Thanks for that insanely long ask, this was a fun thing to keep me occupied while I’ve been at work, facilitating Zoom sessions this whole morning.

[kitsune-kaos]

What do you think your beliefs might be if you had been born into a different family, religion, race, gender, class, or time?

Tl;dr: Blog sending ask is sus. I complain about them. I answer them at the end. My answer is: different.

Hey so just to start off, I don’t like you and you can stay off my blog. You’re sus af and I don’t want you here.

I looked through your blog and it looks like you’re new cause all your posts are from today. Taking that into consideration along with your fake-ass looking profile pic AND the type of content you post, I get the impression that you’re problematic—probs either a bot, a troll, a shit-stirrer, a propaganda machine, or some other bullshit not worth my time. But Imma still complain bout yo ass AND answer your question after.

You’re clearly a boot licker, both figuratively and literally judging by the nationalist propaganda AND the boot kink shit you reblogged. And on the topic of kinks, What The Fuck was that fucking fantasy writing you reblogged about being shrunken down and superglued to football gear and drinking sweat and being squished. Because I don’t respect you, I am gonna kink shame you, you rancid dung heap.

Something that did confuse me about your blog is that the most recent stuff at the top of your feed had some agreeable content, like pro-gay articles, political cartoons critiquing capitalism, articles critiquing American sanctions, a couple posts critiquing Biden (which we should, cause he isn’t good; but he is a much better option than Trump), and something critiquing climate change and US war crimes.

But then as you scroll down further, there’s posts that are clearly anti-leftist, a quote from the right’s favorite token Candice Owens, an anti-trans post, blue lives matter posts, pro-US posts, a Trump quote, anti-socialist posts, anti-quarantine posts, and anti-immigrant and anti-protestor posts—the kind that are specifically target people of color—to name a few.

Now you, being a sketchy account that was made just today with your conflicting controversial opinions, decided to message me of all people. Idk why you would want me opinion on this but I will answer it.

BUT I still don’t trust you considering the fake social media accounts of years past that were used to spread misinformation and propaganda.

NOW THAT ALL BEING SAID.

Of course my beliefs would be different if any of those factors were changed. The family, religion, race, gender, class, and time one is born into directly determines the events one lives through. Thus, any change will change one’s beliefs. Of course people from different backgrounds can and do come to the same/similar conclusions on a wide variety of topics, but everyone’s gonna reach those conclusion based off of their own unique lived experiences. Now regarding the aforementioned factors specifically, these are all concepts that play huge roles in one’s lived experiences in the modern world; so if any of these variables are adjusted, then there would likely be drastic changes in lived experiences. Of course, there is also variation within each of those lived experiences, so even people who are the exact same in respects to all the factors you listed could end up with different beliefs.

So my answer is: my beliefs could literally be anything, so if any factor contributing to my lived experiences were changed, then my beliefs would most likely be changed to at least some degree. If I were different, my beliefs would probs be different, but some probably aspects could end up similar.

Hope this helps. K Bye.

Astro HOT TAKES 🔥part 2 🔥

🔥 Real life Aries’s are not chaotic fun balls hopping from one rooftop to the next clad head to toe in leather. Aries describes an energy of pursuing things without hesitation, and to see what areas of life they will pursue, you’ll have to check the house that it falls in. (This goes for all the sign caricatures — Capricorn’s with a fifth house stellium will direct their drive into pursuing fun)

🔥 house cusps don’t exist in a goddamn vacuum. Unless you have intercepted houses, you’re first correlated to EVERY OTHER HOUSE. So if I have to read one more post about how my Virgo rising means I prefer lasering people with my beady eyes of pure criticism to actually having a convo, but my gemini mc means my chat game is so fierce I could walk out the library with four new bffls, I might just yeet my leo out of its hidden life in the twelfth house and have a whole dramatic rage storm.

🔥 ascendents do not reflect how you take things emotionally. ascendents do not reflect the first impressions you leave on people. Ascendents are not some mysterious mask that somehow got super glued to your face. Ascendents decide a defining planet and theme that sticks to your life, as well as an innate set of abilities that you have.

🔥 Venus signs, lol, are NOT how you flirt. That’s going to be your mars and mercury working together, as mars is how you pursue things (directly, indirectly, etc), and mercury as that’s how you communicate.

🔥 hold on cause we bout to get real controversial. Imma argue that everyone yelling about geminis being total cheaters are wrong… sort of. I think the real issue is salty Venus/mars aspects, and then if we wanna call out the signs, I’m looking at gemini VENUS and the mutable Mars’s, minus virg and adding LEO.

🔥 ik it’s disappointing bc we all tryna read these posts that are like “the signs in love” and chomp on ice cream and fantasize about being in love, but for most things, you can’t look at one sign. Every person is an exciting lil smorgasbord of planets, signs, houses, and influences, with a funky chart shapes and aspects coming in to wreck it Ralph to our lil buzzfeed style posts. for something as complicated as love, and for someone as unique as every single one of you, I would need to look at the very least your moon, Venus and Mars. Now, this is not going to stop from looking at your mercury and tryna hypothesize your specific snark style, but it will make me hesitate to go that deep stuff without at least a few disclaimers

🔥 eighth house placements do NOT determine how you’re going to die, so you can sleep peacefully, Uranus in the eighth, you’re not about to go out getting struck by lightning whilst partaking in some cocaine-fueled yodeling

Idgaf what you heard about me. Go, hear it again. Only miserable people obsess over shit that has absolutely nothing to do them.. Gossip just deflects from their own insignificance. Bitch, I'm insecure too. Everyone has insecurities. Only a weak minded individual gets validation from using someones insecurities to manipulate the opinions of sheep and then hides behind the same flock. Truth be told, you're entitled to say whatever tf you wanna say as long as you know how to fight. I've learned that lesson in life. But I wont fuck with you if you're easily influenced or allow yourself to be misguided by shit you heard but ignore blatant contradictions. idc what you say about me, what you heard about me, or what controversy goes on in your life; if it doesn't pertain to me or assist in my growth. keep ya soul sucking energy far tf away from me. Find a hobby. Or something. I stay in my lane and I mind my business. I sleep just fine. YELLA BEEZY SAID A GIRAFFE SHOULDNT BE WORRIED BOUT THE WAYS OF A TURTLE and I felt that shit though. I'm humble. I'm still growing. I'm open to constructive criticism and can handle rejection. Ive learned to curb my emotions if its beneficial, but in order for it to be beneficial you gotta say that shit to my fucking face. If I don't know wtf you're saying or if I hear it from someone else, I'm just gonna ignore it cause I don't listen to rumors. I might be ignorant sometimes, but I'm not fake. Imma say it with my chest or not say it at all. Be direct. Words don't mean shit if you're too pussy to say them to the person your saying it about. Crazy since they're the only person who might benefit from what your saying when it ain't malicious. I've learned that If it don't make me money, make me happy, or make me better, it ain't for me. Same goes for people. If you need all that extra shit in your life to feel good about yourself, then imma pray for you cause real talk, there was a time I was that person. Always in the gossip and drama. Always giving my unsolicited advice and opinions on shit that had nothing to do with me. I wasn't happy and I drowned myself in constant negativity; resentment, enviousness, and jealousy.. I was the problem. I'm not always right. I don't know shit. I only have control over my own actions. I have zero control of how someone feels, what they think, or the things they say about me. I can only control how I choose to react. Not everyone will like me. Not everyone will find me attractive. I'm not for everyone so it's cool. I just wanna see less miserable people in the world and had to rant about it.
