Iâm the unhinged anon who sent the running list of unhinged behavior from N and L.
I think that people jump ship so fast now, but like bffr. Thatâs a blurry pic. You know what wasnât blurry and pretty clear? That Glamour pic with the hands. I saw some of you guys trying to gaslight yourselves into believing it was someone elseâs out of fear of being wrong, but Iâm 99.999% sure we arenât. The same could be going on with this pic.
The point of shipping isnât to look at side characters. They are a part of the journey, but theyâre not what weâre here for. If you didnât have people convince you it was JD, would you think so? What if JD wasnât even around and in her friend group? All in all, it wasnât an Easter egg. It wasnât purposeful. Itâs a picture. One so blurry it can be distorted in many different ways. And anyone who wants to believe itâs an Easter egg shouldnât believe itâs supposed to point us towards JD considering how hard N, Douglas, and Jack have worked to get rid of that narrative. It would also defeat the purpose of her whole speech.
Some days I wonder if some people create drama and anxiety for themselves out of boredom. I donât think this is worth spiraling over. Iâve been a firm believer that until we receive a clear message from N and L then we canât say anything is for certain đ«¶đ»
Yes, stop paying so much attention to the side pieces.
It's why they continue to come back.
Unfortunately, today caused a huge spiral and it wasn't even Jake doing it or Nicola doing anything either.
It's starting to look like the people who believe they're dating based off a lock screen have never had friends they care about.
Probably never dated anyone either OOP-

Armand is someone who has been has been trained (in brothels, by Marius, and by 500+ years worth of life experience) to adapt himself to what the people around him want. Throughout seasons 1-2, different people get very different versions of Armand, depending on who they are and whoâs retelling the story at the time.
Itâs the primary way Armand protects himself, whether heâs a teenage sex slave or the oldest, strongest person in the room. Itâs how he controls people. Fundamentally, itâs the only way Armand knows to make people love him (an approximation of love at least). Worse, itâs the only way Armand knows how to love â by twisting and contorting himself into whatever form he thinks his current obsession wants or needs him to be. He even does it to his victims for crying out loud.
And then hereâs Daniel, who is constantly seeking authenticity and truth. Whoâs bullshit detector is never âoffâ. Who cannot tolerate any kind of masquerade, manipulation or lie â no matter how kind or well intentioned. Not out of any moral or ethical objection, but because Daniel simply cannot leave things well enough alone once something attracts his attention. He has to know. He has to see where it goes and how it ends.
âItâs my job, Iâm built this wayâ
âItâs in your nature, Mr Molloy. Couldnât get out the door without lobbing one more bomb.â
Daniel knew something was off about âRashidâ from the beginning, so he began to pick the situation in Dubai apart until Armand revealed himself. And then he kept going until he completely destroyed the narrative Armand had spent 77 years constructing.
Daniel deliberately and systematically pulled âArmand, Amadeo, Arunâ apart and laid him bare with nothing but but a laptop, some free time, a near-suicidal disregard for his own personal safety and a mouth that just wouldnât quit.
Thereâs power in being seen, in being known, ugly parts and all. What would it feel like, to be completely exposed like that for the first time in centuries?
So yeah it makes sense to me that Armand, who puts on all these acts and artifices to draw people in, but which only serve to ensure theyâre kept at a distance, would turn his big sad orange eyes on the person who blew them all to smithereens and be all ââŠI wanna do this forever, actually.â
#this is word vomit but follow along on the journey anyway#armandâs bullshit doesnât work on daniel and after 500+ years it must be terrifying and liberating all at once for armand#like to what extent does armand even know who he is under everything?#how can you be so old and yet have such a fragile sense of self?#and yet here we are#meanwhile daniel âdude i know who you are and youâre an ASSHOLEâ#it lines up with book!devils minion where daniel sees armand as a predator and a monster and loves him any way#daniel molloy#armand#devilâs minion#armandaniel#amc interview with the vampire#amc iwtv

There's this way of doing female-ness in Christianity that I call "pastel flower journal Christianity." I've got nothing against pastel flower journals per se, but for some reason people believe it's the end all and be all of female spirituality, and I think it's a real disservice towards young Christian women.
One of these days I'd like to start a prayer-and-reading group or something for young women, but there would be no floral themes or over-focus on how "God thinks you're beautiful even if the world doesn't" (a true statement, but it's wayyyyy too often the focus in women's spiritual reading). Instead we would be reading:
Seneca's Letters from a Stoic
Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning
Sheed's A Map of Life
Portions of Pieper's book on leisure
Kreeft's Three Philosophies of Life
Guardini's The Lord (or something similar)
Therese's Story of a Soul
and some select portions of the Nicomachean Ethics.
(Also they're all getting the porn talk. I don't know why we give the porn talk to young men but not young women. There's this idea that women don't use porn and they only need the talk about "guarding their heart." Bullshit. There's porn on the YA shelves of Barnes and Nobles and before that there were bodice rippers. Young women need the porn talk too.)
Every young woman needs to be getting a basic grounding in virtue ethics, logic, natural law, scholastic philosophy and Biblical hermeneutics if they're going to get by in today's spiritual landscape. Enough faffery and emotionalism in young women's spiritual education! Give them real food to chew on, not pasty sentimentalism!
#Christian femininity#Christian women#Christian#Christianity#Catholicism#Catholic women#Catholic femininity#Catholic feminism#Catholic#I'm sure there should be something by Stein on this list but I haven't read her stuff yet#Anyway if I could shove one book into the hands of every young woman on this site#it would be either Letters from a Stoic or Man's Search for Meaning.#I think a lot of women on this site could benefit from those two books alone.#Much of the way we treat women's sense of spirituality and ethics is trusting them to just blindly feel their way to the right answer#While we give young men clear-cut instructions and reasoning.#It's bullshit. And it's actively harmful. I would never say feelings are useless#but without a well-formed intellect and conscience they're just not going to carry you as far as you need to go on their own.#I had the value of a good moral and philosophical education because of where I went to schoolâsame as the boys in my class.#And it's spared me so much grief. People put the tools in my hands to make smart decisions and empowered me to seek the good.#All young women deserve the same.

there's something so deeply dystopian to me how tech companies don't understand that a forced convenience is not a convenience at all. i'm sure autocorrect is helpful for many, but a function that forcibly changes my actual written words and punctuation is taking away my language. photo filters can be nice but i need to choose using them myself or else i have lost the ability to take the picture i want. i don't want a machine to draw or write for me. taking away the option for me to do things manually feels like violence!!!! all this talk of endless opportunity, why are you RESTRICTING me
#haha im upset an android update removed my most used screenshotting tools while forcing more ai garbage on me#tech companies go sit in the staircase and think about what you've done#there are many technical conveniences i choose to rely on because they're convenient for my sensibilities#but these should not be the default for anyone or the only option#it's like. it's technology. it has the capability of being personalised for our actual use and convenience like isn't that the POINT#AHHHHHHHHH#also with all the ai bullshit it's so hard to fully underline how much i enjoy the act of drawing and creating and i don't WANT it to be#more 'convenient' or easy?#not in the eay techbros think anyway. i think there should be accessibility tools and options to make the Process good for Your Needs#which is not. having a machine create something in your stead ??? ??????????

tired: fox has never done anything wrong in his life he was under control of the chip he didn't mean to kill fives he would never do that
wired: fox was being deliberately, continuously manipulated by palpatine into doing anything he wanted under threat of severe bodily harm, no chip necessary
inspired: fox is a product of brainwashing and genuinely believes in the senate and the republic, which is in constant conflict with the rhetoric he hears from politicians and his general dislike of senators, but that conflict is ultimately irrelevant. he believes in the institution with his entire self. he was born to die for this system and would lose his shit if he started questioning it in any meaningful way. The Institution told him to kill fives so he killed fives, it told him to hunt down ahsoka so he did it, etc etc. conviction that this is all worth it because the republic Can Only Be Right (or else his entire existence and everything the guard puts up with are meaningless) is what gets his ass out of bed in the morning. he'll do terrible things to protect it, and by extension his sense of self, and he won't apologize for it because it's categorically Right in his brain. none of this changes the fact that he's routinely abused by this system, or the fact that he's enslaved by it, or that he has no real choice in anything, only how he personally reconciles it all
send tweet
#none of this makes him a cop either so jot that down#it makes him a victim of lifelong conditioning and it makes him delusional but it Does Not make him a villain#seen some RANCID fox takes on this site recently#how precisely the fuck do you get from fox is a member of a security force composed of slaves with minimal autonomy and no choice in their#post to fox is a cop complicit in palpatines plans and therefore a dirtbag because he [checks palm] killed your blorbo#be mad at him sure but the implication that he has all this power by nature of being in the guard is wild đ#i just don't think chips would be necessary after 10 years of The Republic Is The Only Way being drilled into the clones' brains. not for t#e day in day out of the war#and especially not for the clones who get that lesson most frequently reinforced#ANYWAY.#commander fox#foxposting#fox isn't a dirtbag for doing his job he's a dirtbag because he's an asshole đ#hmmmm it's almost like the more scifi bullshit like control chips is stripped away the more sw becomes a legitimate social commentary about#control and autonomy and government and systemic oppression#the boys can be dehumanized and manipulated by the existing framework without being mind controlled đ„Ž#idk where i was going with this but here we are

#daniel ricciardo#dr3#yeah i'm still here in this video#so many people talked about the old daniel over the past year or so and I think he started to take that to heart and believe it#but removed from all of that nonsense I think he's recognizing that he wasn't what fundamentally changed actually#I'm about to get deep in the tags of this post so look away#there's a quote by emily mcdowell that i've been thinking about in terms of daniel these days:#âFinding yourself" is not really how it works. You aren't a ten-dollar bill in last winter's coat pocket. You are also not lost.#Your true self is right there buried under cultural conditioning#other people's opinions and inaccurate conclusions you drew as a kid that became your beliefs about who you are.#âFinding yourselfâ is actually returning to yourself.#An unlearning an excavation a remembering who you were before the world got its hands on you.#and here daniel is returning to himself#unlearning the bullshit that they placed on him#stretching out his limbs from the boxes they tried to cram him into#Anyway thinking too deeply about this multimillionaire that I do not actually know but who I know...ya know?

I like the general fandom trend to just take the plot of Hyrule Warriors as a loose guideline at best and just use the whole concept as a good excuse to get blorbos to interact across timelines, BUT I'm very disappointed that everyone is missing the comedic potential of a very specific squad of characters:
Young Link (aka Mask), who walks out of the nightmare of Majora's Mask and immediately gets portal kidnapped into a temporal war, takes one look at the whole mess and decides that you could not fucking pay him to admit to being the resident expert on Time Shenanigans. He introduces himself with the title of Hero of Termina, and definitely doesn't have any other ones, that would be crazy. Hero of Time? Never heard of him.
Tetra, who is a kickass pirate captain with zero patience for people trying to shove her into the Designated Princess role, and realizes immediately that Oh Fuck, this Hyrule has a lot of Ideas about how the Hero and the Princess are supposed to properly play their parts, the second they realize she's technically a Zelda they're gonna shove her in a goddamn dress and damsel her again, that's not happening. So she's definitely just a really cool pirate captain, nothing else going on here at all, definitely not the heir of the Hylian royal family in her time, that'd be crazy.
Ravio, who is literally just a palette swapped Link, meaning that the second his hood comes off, things are gonna get Awkward. There's no way in hell he's dealing with all that Hero baggage, that's Link work, so that giant bunny hood/mask is practically superglued to his head, and he's not taking it off for love or money.
Spirit Tracks Zelda, who is just in the Phantom Armour the whole time, and passing herself off as just a friendly ghost posessing a suit of armour to help the Hero of Spirits. Of course she isn't Princess Zelda, that's ridiculous, if she were a Zelda then people would start getting really weird about her technically being dead, and boy does that ever sound like a whole Thing she doesn't want to deal with, so she can't possibly be Zelda, she's just a nice ghost knight. Also, her teenage grandma is here, and that's kinda weird, so it's easier to just not admit to being royalty and avoid that awkward conversation.
Finally there's Sheik, who is not the Princess Zelda of the era straight up abandoning her war torn country for months at a time so she can risk her life in extreme cosplay for no clear reason, but is instead the actual Sheik from Ocarina of Time, who just beat Ganondorf like a month ago and is still trying to process what the fuck to do now. Also, he's been pretending to be a boy since he was ten, and is realizing there's a pretty good chance that he isn't pretending anymore, so that's a whole other can of worms. But for the last seven years of his life, being Princess Zelda meant certain death, so he's not really inclined to introduce himself like when in a new and stressful situation (not to mention he might actually just not be a girl named Zelda anymore), so he automatically introduces himself as just Sheik the spooky ninja man, and fuck he's in too deep to back out now, looks like he's committing to the bit. If you think you sense the Triforce of Wisdom on him, no you don't.
Cue shenanigans as the five of them attempt to hide that they're all actually kind of A Big Deal. The group motto is "Nobody says shit", which is usually delivered as a frantic hiss whenever someone slips up. Just the reunion between Sheik and Mask alone would be absolutely buckwild given how they parted, and how they're both frantically pretending to Not be involved with each other. For added hilarity and/or drama, Sheik gives his semi-bullshit cover story of having just been a friend of the Hero of Time, then runs into said Hero of Time and they both have to desperately pretend not to know each other, because if anyone picks up on the mountain of baggage between them then Mask is busted, and he won't hesitate to drag Sheik down with him out of sheer spite. Not to mention the weird balance of Sheik being used to this Link being a teenager that's actually a small child, and now has to adjust to Link who is a small child that's actually a teenager.
Also, i really feel like we're all missing out on the comedy potential of Ganondorf recognizing Young Link on sight and the two of them immediately launching into a grudge match with some extremely personal and specific insults on both sides. Meanwhile literally everybody else is just standing there watching, trying to process the fact that out of every single person that's been pulled out of time, Ganondorf only has personal beef with a literal nine year old.
I just feel like we're all really sleeping on the potential for Shenanigans here. The whole thing is an absurd mess, why not have some fun with it?
#legend of zelda#hyrule warriors#for the record im picturing the sheik-mask reunion as being the spiderman pointing meme for like five minutes#also my mental image of sheik is extremely Bad haircut (he does it himself with a knife and doesnt care about making it even)#and a ridiculous tanline across his face from wearing a mask all day#OOT magiaclly growing out zelda's hair and manifesting a Royal Gown was some top tier bullshit and i'm always angry about it#like dude. literally all of princess zelda's finery was made for a ten year old#she's like eighteen now. nobody's making royal finery for teenage zelda. where was she supposed to get that dress.#i am eternally on my agenda to let zelda wear some goddamn pants without an immediate magic makeover to *fix* it#anyways nintendo's sexism aside i like sheik being trans its very fun and sexy of him#tfw you go into hiding to escape political assassination and accidentally trans your gender in the process

yeah yeah sure rough freaky t4t gay sex where i mount you aggressively and overstimulate you by making you cum over and over until you're crying etc etc. but- hey, no, listen. take my hand for a second. what if. what if maybe um. you know, instead of that, what if you let me just lay back and kiss my neck gently and slowly jerk me off or maybe ride me for a little while and praise me for how much I've been doing lately and how good i make you feel all the time and tell me you're proud of me, because you know it's really hard for me to always just push through and make myself get things done and you want me to be the center of attention just this once, so you decide to make me cum this time while muttering praises in my ear to make me really feel as appreciated as possible. maybe. (please)
#sorry for being all sappy and shit but . mn ncbdjdbdjn#idk i probably have some sort of undiagnosed chronic illness and it's been really hard for me to do things lately#and i wanna be appreciated for it and also not have to do a majority of the work during sex sometimes because i don't like trying to spend#energy i don't have#so um. yk whoops#please please please give your doms praise and reassurance and aftercare we are not emotionless pleasure-giving machines#well some are and that's okay but not all of them#anyway sorry normal tags now#ftm nsft#t4t nsft#ftm t4t#trans nsft#ftm dom#ftm top#t4t mlm#nsft t4t#praise k!nk#soft nsft#gentle sex#stupid sappy bullshit ass post

listen im ace and im pro kink at pride and whatever, but the way some of yall are wording your posts in response to the backlash against it is uh. really taking me back to the ace shitcourse era.
yall know theres nothing wrong with being a "virgin", right? that its not inherently shameful to have not had sex, to never have sex, even if youre not ace, even if you do want to have sex someday, like, its fine that you haven't had sex?
maybe if your problem is that theyre trying to police your behavior and shame you for expressing your sexuality, you can say that? instead of resorting to "haha stupid virgin gets no bitches" like my god. do you not hear how fucking regressive that attitude is? i know, i know, youre "joking".
get a better joke
#toy txt post#god im going to regret this post im gonna regret it so much i can feel it in my bones#let it flop..........pls#internalize my message let it sink in and understand what i am saying and then let the post flop#i say. knowing the ppl who need to see such a message are the ones who will make me regret this post and regrwt not having#1 million bajillion disclaimers#virgin is in quotes bc its a bullshit made up stupid purity culture concept anyway and quite frankly i hate even seeing the word#disclaimer: the previous sentence is not me saying that it is a slur for asexuals. it is me a single individual saying this specific word#grosses me out to read and see everywhere when its a stupid bullshit binary made up or at least historically largely used#to shame largely women and i dont know why we're still using it in 2023#and ive just been. seeing such an uptick in this whole like. attitude? lately and like#im ace im minorly sex repulsed. mostly about anything sex at me bad. other adults sex at each other consensually? go wild#i like to think im pretty chill about it. i try to be. i think its fine ig to be like 'my meat is huge i fuck so much so good'#like okay not my thing but good for you. love that for you#but then some of yall have started turning it back around back to. 'haha your meat so small and shriveled you get no bitches'#'haha stupid incel virgin' like okay. didnt realize we all went back to fucking. middle school but okay#god im gonna run out of tine to get ready for my thing writing this stupid post UGH evil#but like idk we've kinda circled back to being like haha being a virgin still is stupid and silly and shameful#and if im quite honest. i do think the acecourse played a part in that bc i felt like we were making good progress in like#hey guys is fine to not have sex ever if you dont want to its fine to not want sex its fine#and then aphobes went fucking rabid on us and splintered and destroyed online communities all over but especially on tumblr#and so many aces went back in the closet we stopped talking about it we stopped spreading awareness and now this stupid goddamn like#and now this stupid bullshit attitude is back where its like funny to call someone a virgin as an insult but like no bro trust me its okay#its okay for me to do it bc im a hot queer person with huge meat instead of a cisstraight frat bro with huge meat#? like you know the issue was the behavior right? not the fact that it was straight dudes saying it? its bc the thing being said was shitty?#you know you can dunk on the puritan bitches trying to police your behavior at pride without getting us as collateral damage right#stop making me read that stupid ugly ass word ur not cool or funny#whatever#if you come on to this post to start shit i will not only block you but as many of your mutuals and followers as i can find. i will scroll#i will block this entire fucking website if i need to do not test me. i am exhausted and the acecourse ate up all my tolerance in 2015.

Timelapse for this painting I posted
#process#video#the song is the coppice by wickerbird#I know it should be the opposite but I feel very weird posting time lapses and sketches with all the a/i bullshit#cuz I feel like Iâm inadvertently contributing to these asshats learning how to duplicate the sketches and brush strokes and shit#like showing how itâs done#but Iâm not gonna stop sharing#cuz I love exchanging knowledge and experience with people who are learning to paint#my skills are not 100% technically sound or perfect#far from it#but I learned something from someone else and itâs my turn to pass it along and try and knock down the fear of making something#anyways I drew a horse and some grass
