#is such a raw statement

[bystandrr]

Saw this tweet and thought « hey what if I took this wholesome post and made it angsty » 😅

I was also got the text boxes from this drawing by @maxipad33 that I came across longggg ago that has stuck in my mind ever since, so please go show them some love!

🧡 Anyway here’s some alt versions of the drawing and the main one without the text boxes:

in retrospect jon being so confused about why martin would think he wants to be the eye's pupil in mag194 is such a category 10 jon moment when you consider that he was looking at elias like this not twenty minutes previous

I really love hope is a thing with feathers and I also really LOVE the hope as a sewer rat poem too but I wish it was not explicity written as "well actually" against Dickinson asgvsjnk. The imagery is SO GOOD but this whole vibe of "my metaphor is better than your metaphor" kinda sours it for me

throwback to a couple of my favourite backhanded sets of compliments that casey and valentino threw each other's way

“It’s difficult to say who is the most talented rider,” Stoner said. “Valentino has talent in several things that I lack, for example in dealing with the media. In some aspects he is more talented than me, in others I am more talented. It’s a speech that applies to everyone. Lorenzo has shown that he is more talented than Valentino, and he showed it when they both had the same bike. Dani [Pedrosa] also has great talent, and if he manages to have a great season, without injuries, everyone will have to deal with him.” “We [riders] are all here for the same reason,” the Australian added, “we have the same passion. We all take the same risks and we have to respect each other: there is no reason for hatred, for hating an opponent. We are mature people and we have to realize that. I have great respect for the riders who ride clearly, without doing stupid things. We know that there could be an accident at any time, and we know how difficult it is to stay at the front every week, the effort that this requires. I have great respect for Lorenzo, he is a great fighter. The same goes for Valentino, Dani, Andrea…”

(from 2012) the one-two punch of the media comment and the jorge comment to shit on valentino's talent is really strong stuff. bunch of obvious insults couched in language that's barely trying to hide it but is JUST enough for plausible deniability, like yeah he really did get way better at this whole media schtick bless

“Stoner did an amazing job at Ducati. When I looked back at his telemetry I used to wonder how he’d achieve such times!” Rossi said. “People used to think he was very quick – but not particularly intelligent. And that’s why, eventually, he was successful. The reality is that at Ducati he had to go beyond the limits. Go quicker and quicker. And, if you ride like that, you eventually crash! “We had completely opposing paths in our careers: he’d always ridden for one manufacturer, Honda, under the guidance of Luca Cecchinello. When at Ducati I think he must have thought: ��Stuff that! This bike is good. I have to win!’ “I, on the other hand, had come from years of success with Honda and Yamaha, and I immediately realised that the bike wasn’t the best. I’m certain that, were Stoner to climb onto Dovizioso’s Ducati tomorrow, he’d still manage to finish a race in 6th place. He used to ride in an incredible way. He’s unique. “Do I miss him? On the track, yes. He has fantastic talent and was difficult to beat. But off the track, no I don’t miss him. Without him there is much better camaraderie between the riders.”

(from 2013) kinda the last time he spoke about casey in any depth for close to a decade, but it's a personal fave interview because there's a really neat 50:50 split between compliments and insults. incredible tonal whiplash in every line

Without the sun there is no moon

Without me there is no you

Yet it feels wrong to me for that to be true

Light shone down from your skies

They were so much brighter than mine

I reached out to make my place in your arms

But my wings burned with your touch

I was just another Icarus

I fell back into my night. I had no light to dream of

It wasn’t your fault

My place is among the dark, where the stars shine far and cold. empty and stark

You should have never put me in your heart

So why do you return? Why do you come into the night where the horrors lie

Why do you want to pull me out of what should be my life

Why wont you just say goodbye?

Without the moon the sun gets lonely

Without you there is no me

That is the truth so why won’t you let it be

You eclipsed my path

You were new, you made me laugh

I let you rest in my arms

But you couldn’t stay, not like this anyways

I saw you fall but couldn’t find what to say

Without you I managed fine, but you never left my mind

It wasn’t your fault

You had never seen light so bright

But I feared you’d lose what made you special if you and me were tied so tight

Yes I am scared. The night is not a place for me

But it also fair for this to be your life while I bathe in light

Because I care about you, that’s why I won’t say goodbye

I don’t want to lose you.

And I don’t want to loose you too.

Good morning

Good night

yay more star metaphors!

can you dock otherside picnic 10% someone is being IMO, overly vitriolic, in the comments

so i know exactly which comment you're talking about, and it is definitely straddling the line

tbh "overly vitriolic" was initially coined to be a nicer way of saying "please dont tell people to kill themselves over my silly poll" but after the pirate poll incident i mentally added "getting into serious discourse in my notes" so i do think i should clarify it a bit?

in future im gonna change it from 'dont be overly vitriolic' to 'don't take this too seriously', or alternatively 'don't harsh my vibe', which sums to:

do not tell people to kill themselves in my notes

do not get into arguments in my notes

if your scathing review hits paragraph length consider making your own post. instead of putting it in my notes.

being dramatic is encouraged but it should never be serious. when engaging with a silly little poll you should keep it silly.

please be as civil as possible. in my notes.

since it's the first time ive needed to tap the sign, there won't be a penalty, but if anyone continues to drop paragraphs in my mentions about how bad they hated one of the contestants (any of them to be clear. i know ive been propagandising kakeochi girl but i also wouldn't be happy if someone said that stuff about urapi or yagakimi, two series i also really love) then i'll issue the -10% penalty.
