#just stop it

[gotholdladywithadhd]

All right so I Have Things To Say and it ain't about Christmas lights.

So I responded to one of those blogs where everything bad is Georgia Tennant's fault for existing because she is preventing David Tennant from either marrying the blogs owner or Michael Sheen (which in their mind it's probably the same thing but anyway)

So after commenting the usual you can't tell the state of a strangers marriage from a single photo you weirdos and it's none of your business anyway wtf is wrong with you, the OP who I won't name because I'm not a complete asshole responded thusly.

To paraphrase, it's hypocritical that ppl don't push back on the people who post about how in love GT and DT are but do when someone posts about how they think the marriage is in trouble.

So I responded thusly

yeah but in my experience ppl who see them happy just post thing like " awww ❤️ so in love 😊" and go on with their day. Whereas the ppl obsessed with their supposed marriage breakdown, analyse every single photo, comment, post for reasons why it's all Georgia's fault and why she is a terrible person (I have no idea what she is like in person but then neither do any of the haters so) and a lot of it smacks of misogyny to boot (she isn't smiling enough? Are you fucking kidding me right now? ) and it's not like this is something new or unique to DT and GT, when Benedict Cumberbatch got married the unmitigated hate his wife got was astounding. And even if their marriage was going bad, what are strangers picking at it on the Internet going to do about it? Except cause more stress and sadness. You think DT likes hearing this shit about his wife and mother of his children? I don't think ppl get upset because you might be right and they might be wrong, they get upset because these are real people with real feelings and real children and real friends all of whom are negatively affected by this kind of constant picking and analysing (everyone knows the whole body language thing is BS but that doesn't stop entire blogs from being devoted to it 🙄) and spouse bashing. It doesn't make you a loyal fan, DT doesn't want your uniformed take on his marriage. ( and neither does MS)

It's just so gross.

Yall really need to stop pushing this stereotype that all depressed, socially awkward, anxious people lack personal hygiene and don't take care of their appearance...

"Guardians"

Chapter 2: "Love"

Legend is still standing, but only barely. He knows he can't win this one... But thankfully, his mother is a fierce guardian in of herself, and she does not appreciate his (unintentional) attempts to die in a blaze of glory at all.

----

Legend leaned on his sword, panting heavily as he forced himself to stand again.

He'd managed to get the monsters all on one side of him, but that guardian had friends now and there were four of them circling him. The monsters had thinned out, now only about two dozen. He was fast but even he wasn't fast enough every time.

His left arm was useless, having taken a guardian beam to the bicep and broken his wrist by stupidly blocking a swung club with his injured arm. He had barely dodged a beam that had went for his head, and it managed to miss his eye but not his cheek and the bridge of his nose. He was lucky it missed his eye.

Even with the guardian beams, he had been hit by clubs, giant swords, even took a spear to the thigh and still was forcing himself to stand one more time.

He was so dead here.

He glared, wiping his mouth of blood with the back of his hand. He stumbled back as he forced himself to stand one more time.

The wind rushed all around him, a surge of energy in his veins, and a sharp ozone filled the air. He couldn’t help but laugh.

"S'rry... Sorry f'r makin' you step in,” he slurred as he fell to one knee. Then the world exploded.

They say lightning never strikes twice, but clearly, they haven't seen a battlefield after Farore decides to step in.

"I told you to stop almost dying, darling." Legend felt a hand land on his head as he struggled to keep upright. A feeling of warmth and serenity filled him. "Only a couple more years before you grow into your power, and some time after the immortality will set in."

He let out a soft breath. "I know."

"This is the third time."

"Third time's the charm?"

She gave him a stern look, he grinned dazedly. "It better be."

He didn't respond, even if she healed him he still felt the effects of almost dying. It was her way of making sure he understood how close he had come to death, even if they both knew full well he was no immature, naive child. He knew what mortality was and that he was extremely mortal as he was.

She softened, kneeling and pulling him close. He collapsed into her arms.

"I know it's hard," she promised, carding a hand through his hair. "The world has it out for you, it had it out for Hylia too. Nayru made sure she made it, and I will make sure you do too."

He nodded into her shoulder, his body shuddering as he inhaled slowly.

"Now you listen to me, and you listen well, Link." Farore held him at arm's length, summer-warm hands cupping his face. "You’re not allowed to die."

He snorted. "I know, Momma."

"Well you don't act like it," she huffed. "Now,"

She snapped her fingers and a portal appeared beside them.

"--if they ask, it was your cousin who saved you; she needs all her heroes on this quest."

Legend sighed, he shook his head to try and clear away the dizziness from the blood loss. "Yes ma'am."

"Now go. Have fun and goodness gracious, be safe." She pulled him into a hug and kissed the top of his head.

Just as quickly as she came, she disappeared with a rush of warm wind.

Legend sighed softly. He moved over to the portal and looked back. There was a burnt crater where the horde had been, and the flames put out by the storm that was just beginning.

He stepped out, immediately about to collapse as he stepped out and his legs even gave out beneath him.

"Holy shit--Vet!" Someone grabbed his arm. "Are you--"

"I'm fine," he forced out, pushing Sky off him. "I'm fine--Just exhausted."

"Exhausted--We thought you were dead!" Wild screeched.

Legend winced, but he got himself to stand and face them. "Yeah, well, I did too. Turns out our patron goddess ain't too happy with that idea, said I'm not allowed to die."

They stared at him.

"Let's not test how far that grace goes," Time said. "We're glad you’re alright, vet... Sailor cried himself to sleep thinking he left you to die."

Legend winced. "Ah... Yeah, he's gonna kill me himself."

Twilight laughed weakly. "Yeah he probably is, Apple."

Legend looked over at Wind rousing, noticing him, and then moving on.

Legend sighed softly. "Not a ghost, Sailor!"

Wind's head snapped back toward him. "Vet?!"

"Goddess said no. If she could slap me I think she would've."

Wind stared at him. Then he was scrambling to get up. "YOU SON OF A BITCH I'M GOING TO KILL YOU MYSELF!"

Legend managed to take a deep breath, gathering his remaining energy, before he bolted.

Wind screeched at him for one, tricking him into thinking he'd died, which was not his fault, and two, for making him leave him behind... which was 100% his fault.

He managed to run about five laps before his body finally gave out and he skidded to a stop over by Sky and collapsed behind him.

"Whoa, you good?"

"Noooo," he groaned. "Protect me. Surviving death might fix a body but it definitely doesn't recharge it."

Wind slowed to a jog, panting heavily, and he dropped into a cross-legged position beside Legend.

"You look tired."

"I am, can't you try to kill me tomorrow when I can actually fight back?" He whined, totally acting all of the seventeen years old he was.

Wind clearly debated it.

Sky, goddesses bless his in-law, intervened. "Leave him be, Sailor. I think he should rest, genuinely."

Wind nodded, then proceeded to flop over beside Legend and press against him. Legend sighed and shifted to accommodate him.

"Guys you’re half on Sky's--"

"They're fine," Sky promised Twilight, who easily backed off. Sky ran a hand through Legend's hair as Wind took one of his hands and fidgeted with his fingers.

Legend let that lull him to sleep.

every time someone calls me "ma'am" it feels like I've been slapped upside the head my brain short-circuits at being misgendered because I forgot what people see me as or what they believe I am when they hear my voice over the phone and I will literally forget my train of thought immediately.

Why does people sexualize so much the goth girls? Just tell them they are pretty.

[tani-b-art]

anytime someone starts off a response to a question about possible wrongdoings with how many years they’ve been in their position, expect gaslighting. becky, that was a distasteful answer when all you had to say was, “no comment.” girl, just stop talking. goodness.

I can't do this it's too much she's gone, she's dead, I can't go on any longer

hot take I know, but it’s not like… okay to be going around and making hurting little kids or talking about hurting them into a joke

seriously. they’re people, they’re living breathing beings who are newer to the whole experience of the world than you and are still trying to figure things out

sure they might do things that you find annoying, but pretending like you’re going to cause physical or physiological damage to them isn’t at all funny. Not liking something or finding it mildly annoying is not an excuse.

Most of the people who do this wouldn’t be laughing if the same kind of logic, actions, and language were applied to creatures smaller and more helpless than themselves like kittens or salamanders or baby birds

It’s fine to not like kids, they don’t have to be your cup of tea, but they at least deserve basic respect and decency

living things deserve to be treated with humanity.
