insane things my crazy ex-coworker did:
admitted to armed robbery in the first two weeks of the job
followed our manager home
attempted to get our sous chef's water turned off
accidentally took LSD
ranted about how Taylor Swift is a satanic cult leader
explained in detail how to buy illegal guns
bartended while high on shrooms
believed my allergy cold gave her a stomach bug
shoved another coworker into a table
regularly ran through the dangerous part of the city for "extra motivation"
cussed out customers
mistook a 40 year old man for a teenager
constantly had conversations with herself at full volume
took a phone call to plan partying while on speaker during a wedding
broke at least 4 dozen glasses

'Some of you may go on to lead successful careers in the world. But I would venture to guess that the majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world.’ Harrison Butker
I was purposely avoiding the topic of the Kansas Chiefs kickers speech to the graduating class at Benedictine College. It seem to be everywhere, well the more I heard I more pissed I became. Especially anyone of weight defending this morons ideals. Bullshit like oh its his beliefs, or I don't understand what the big deal is. Both of brought to you by Whoopi Goldberg and Bill Maher. So I've decided to break it down for everyone who's completely lost as to why what Harrison Butker said is a fucking problem!!
First let's take his actual words. Mostly the moment the dipshit said BUT. But he would venture to guess... let me stop him right there. Everything he said after this to the women sitting and listening suddenly diminished everything they had worked for in their college careers. It devalued them brought them back to being nothing more the 2nd class citizens. The issue with this is it's not just this morons beliefs! These conservative Christian beliefs are shaved by far too many on the right. These kind of men are reason Roe v Wade was overturned. It's men like these that are actively right now all over our country still trying to make sure abortion is illegal in every state. They also want to go after pretty much any form of contraception especially The Pill make that illegal also. See its not just Harrison Butker beliefs, he's the tip of iceberg! When he stand there like arrogant little prick he is telling women, young women in no uncertain terms that a career is ok but your true place is being some man's wife and popping out his babies is far more important is basically a way of diminishing women as fully human. Because conservative Christian men goal is to take complete control away from women as autonomous human beings. Their no better than the Taliban truthfully! That's why what Harrison Butker said is a fucking problem people! It's not just about one guys dumbass beliefs it about an ideology that's invaded all parts of our society. It's most scary its been spreading in our government for far too long! The right has been poisoned by it. Now it's in our Supreme Court, it's already been in the White House once.
The fundamental problem is people are not paying attention. People are not connecting the dots, Harrison Butker isn't a one off... he's a main issue problem.

To put in perspective what my roommate is like...
Our smoke alarm started beeping (like low battery beeping) nearly a week ago. It started just before I went away for a couple of days, and then I've been busy with work since I got back. It's still beeping.
It took me all of 5 minutes this morning to take it down and dust the bloody thing and now it's stopped beeping.

BRIEFLY ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING IN ARMENIA
The present government of Armenia, under the leadership of the infamous madman Nikol Pashinyan, has made the decision to cede some Armenian territory to Azerbaijan, a neighboring country that has relentlessly waged war against Armenia for decades, leaving scars of loss and anguish in its wake. On April 19, the Armenian and Azerbaijani border demarcation commissions agreed to initiate border demarcation proceedings starting from the Tavush region. The delineation of the border sections will be based on coordinates clarified through geodetic measurements on-site, with completion expected by May 15th, 2024. Representatives of the Armenian Prime Minister announced that, as a consequence, Azerbaijan would gain control over 2.5 villages, purportedly leading to a reduction in security risks for the Republic of Armenia. This decision has been likened to extending a hand to a voracious beast in the hope that it will miraculously abandon its predatory instincts and refrain from further aggression. Those familiar with the historical tensions between these nations recognize this as the initial step toward Armenia's capitulation. Since April 19, residents of Tavush border villages, supported by demonstrators from across the country, have been staging protests along the Armenia-Georgia interstate road. Despite these protests, 35 border posts have already been erected along the Armenia-Azerbaijan border. Opponents of the border delimitation, led by Archbishop Bagrat Galstanyan, head of the Diocese of Tavush, are marching from Kirants—one of the affected villages—to Yerevan in an attempt to halt the border demarcation process. Archbishop Bagrat Sacrosanct previously declared that the movement would reach Yerevan by the afternoon of May 9, where they will present specific demands to the government. The participants demand an end to the concessionary policy and unilateral concessions endorsed by the government, which will, without a shadow of a doubt, endanger the safety of Armenians and Armenia as an independent country. Hence, every single one of us needs to be politically conscious. Who knows? Perhaps one day your leader, too, will decide to sell parts of your country to your enemy.

The idea of werewolves having a “weakness” to silver really is a fun thing to play with, especially with low enough quality silver where it just burns the skin. A werewolf who has a scar from her favorite necklace, whose hand has a mark from all the silver rings she has to shake hands with, stuck in a silver chastity cage while her mistress hold the key, the possibilities really are endless!

The thing I love about Victorian and Edwardian fashion is that even if I don't like a piece of clothing, even if it's an affront to God and the most unfortunate combination of colours and drapery, I am ALWAYS stunned into appreciation when I see the details. The amount of minute, manual attention paid to each square centimetre of cloth is mindblowing. I can just imagine someone stooping over that corner of sleeve sewing on each individual bead or lining up the waist tape in a work dress or arranging the frills with a host of finicky pins. I wish each piece of my clothing was as unique and full of dedication and character
#i say this as someone who is too lazy to learn how to make my own clothes btw#and also understanding the accessibility challenges of bespoke/handmade clothing#fast fashion is such a huge subject that every piece of info i learn about is just the tip of the depressing iceberg#fashion history#historical fashion#victorian fashion#edwardian fashion#victorian era#edwardian era#clothing history#e

Ok, I need to talk about it. The Five x Lila thing is uncomfortable and kinda gross to me. But mabye I'm not seeing the vision/my discomfort is not the reason it's a bad idea necesarilly. So... here are some reasons besides that on why it's just a bad idea:
1. Why give Five a love story at all? He had a love story, has had it the whole show - love for his family. I'm not saying he doesn't deserve romantic love (with an actual human), but knowing it's the last season and knowing they have only 6 eposodes mabye don't? Introducing the romance in the second to last episode? And developing it through a montague? It's not enough time
2. What's the purpose of the subway station to the story? The only characters on it are Five and Lila (later also Lila's family + Claire), they don't accomplish anything with it, don't find anything useful, don't learn anything new. It's an excuse to have them get lost there, so that they could fall in love. IT'S THE LAST SEASON! Don't waste a cool location like that! Why didn't other characters get there? Why didn't they get Bennifer there and put Ben on one train and Jennifer on another while they think of another permanent safe solution? Use the subway station for actual plot or get rid of it - and that way we don't have the out-of-character falling in love crap
3. Ok, thay are lost, it's been years, they are loosing hope, they are clinging to the only other real thing. There's no guilt? No talk of Diego, Lila's children? There's no false start? They just kiss, remark it's not weird and live idyllicly together? I don't need depressing scenes of them crying for their family and hating themselves for being together, but what we got was not a relationship created by necessity but a normal falling in love story as if Lila isn't MARRIED CURRENTLY to Five's BROTHER! There should be some weirdness, some discussion of what exactly their relationship is, what would happen if they managed to come back. It's inconsistent (with previous characterisation but that's another thing) - are they genuinly in love, or using each other? Is Lila trully happy and in love, or pretending, while being desperate to come back to reality with Diego and her kids? They seem really in love, but after Five finally (5 months!?!?? WTF that's gross) shows Lila the notebook and she leaves she makes it seem as if she's choosing Diego and her marriage. But then she cannot answer 'Do you love him?', gives Five longing glances, is holding his hand... I know that she could be confused and unsure but it doesn't seem as if she doesn't know, it seems like she acts in the way for all the scenes to be dramatic even if it contradicts what happened previously.
4. So they manage to go back, Lila doesn't immedietly confess to Diego, and when the truth comes out Five is mad? He is in the wrong! He went after his brother's wife, he should be apologetic, he should feel weird to be in Diego's home, not combative. Yeah, your love life is complicated and not everything is roses after your return but it's on you YOU WENT AFTER A MARRIED WOMAN! WITH KIDS! And you're mad at her husband for being mad at you? No, he should be ashamed. And ok, get mad later, say that you were finally happy, and now it's gone, scream it at Lila or Diego, but not from the get go. That makes him seem like such a scumbag .
5. You wanted Five to have a romance. In my opinion unnecessary, but do you. You wanted it to be with Lila. In my opinion very weird choice, but sure. Why have Lila and Diego married? We have a 6 year time skip. They could have been just co-parenting and no longer together (and never married). Why make a subplot where Diego thinks Lila is cheating on him (as a joke) to then make it a reality? Why not have Diego and Lila have this season to grow close as friends and co-parent as a unit after years of conflict and have Diego be supportive of this weird incestuous relationship? (TUA unfortunately is no stranger to that, and UA already has weird and complicated relationships all around) instead of falling apart in such a fashion? IT'S THE LAST SEASON at the very least have all our main characters go out without conflict with each other. Five's lat words to Diego were 'I'm gonna kill you'.
It seems they made this whole thing as messy as possible, but then didn't dive deep into the mess to have some actual drama, didn't adress the mess, didn't vindicate any of those characters. And if you're just creating mess and don't engage with it, and it's THE LAST SEASON mabye you should've just left it alone - Lila and Diego together and happy, and Five doing everything to be with his family, safe. I'm dissapointed.

Ok fuck it I’m so sleep deprived I am going to parasocialize on main:
Champagne Problems came on my playlist when I was in the car this morning and it struck me that “you told your family for a reason, you couldn’t keep it in” kind of parallels how much wedding/marriage imagery was all over the Lover album with her telling the world she was ready to marry this person and in turn everyone expecting it to happen imminently but then by evermore we started getting all the relationship breakdown stories because no one was celebrating anymore 😵💫
#i went down a deep rabbit hole in the 8 minute drive to the bakery lmao#this is just the tip of the iceberg lol#me thinking too hard about Taylor lyrics#just like… how the subject is so excited to propose to/marry this person that they tell their whole circle they’re gonna do it#and everyone is expecting it to happen and expecting to celebrate the next milestone#and instead it fizzles#😵💫#champagne problems
