bro, as someone who has nightmares regularly, the idea of, accidentally yelling something out in your sleep, yelling loud enough that someone else hears and has to wake you up.... it's such an terrifyingly embarrassing concept. Like... girl you heard me sobbing in my sleep? No you didn't. You heard me yell out in absolute anguish? You must be mistaken, I would never.

thinking about touch starved touch sensitive gojo again. Absolutely desperate for even the most grazing touches from getou and yet overwhelmed by it all.

it's my fault for starting it where it was but it should be noted that tweosdrien suffers from a sort of light yagami effect where his usual behavior in-story is actually a massive departure from the norm. this guy was an honors student ok. he's getting in fights and drinking now but like 5 months prior he was doing his 30 step mandated skincare routine at 8:00pm on the dot every night. quitting his job genuinely fucked his life up man

Sometimes i make fanart and think ‘wow, this one specific person would love it!’ And its happened multiple times with many people and i still don’t understand why i feel disappointed when Ive barely shared two words with these people when they don’t see it at all.

[khihi]

really though as a generally really quiet kind of person who struggles expressing themselves a lot of the time i relate to jan wayyy too much

[strawglicks]

i can feel myself drifting from the TTCC community .. like i still love the characters and their dynamics, but ive been thinking less about toontown as a whole and just some of the characters are lingering . this usually happens towards the end of my obsessions

plus i just dont feel in touch with the community LOL i just kinda stick to my own stuff and sometimes like the art and stories ppl make .. but im in this awkward spot right now where im MENTALLY not engaging as much. idk if this is anything

[gigantomachylesbian]

Guys. I did not know before now that writing could be painfully millennial in a full prose book but the pho*nix ke*per has proven me wrong and I have to complain about it in the tags

[superbellsubways]

thank you cookie it means alot 😭🙏

[skarsgardsnark]

Lol you guys! I’m starting to think we as Bill fans love him and think he’s gorgeous, but I’m getting the feeling that the general public finds him creepy and off putting. Lol I watched that fun little quiz that was posted today and the camera always cuts away from him fast whereas it lingered on everyone else. At first I thought it was cuz Bill is too tall and in the middle but Nick is like his same height?? Lol idk, I wonder if like marketing for his films and such are like, “he didn’t test well with audiences, let’s show him as little as possible”. Idk idk, I’m just guessing🤣

Well he’s been getting praised for his role so I don’t think it’s that. I think it’s because he wasn’t saying much. I don’t think he even read a question.

As far as the general public goes, I don’t know 🤷‍♀️ I don’t read too many comments. Some people think he’s creepy others think he’s sexy...

Although it was nice to see the cast do something like that. This is the stuff that I was mainly looking forward to. 😁

suddenly super self conscious and hyper aware of the fact I use The Exact Same Script for Every Single Customer and I fear it's very awkward and stilted and robotic, esp. if it's a larger group of people all ordering separately but going into one movie together oops

like all my coworkers can do lighthearted and off the cuff banter no problem and mix up their scripts to keep it fresh and authentic, but I am just stuck with My One Script and cannot deviate from that lest I mess up the order and get tongue-tied 😭

how do they do it?????

Recent things.. mostly just writing screenshots lol

It's kinda frustrating that people are brushing off valid criticism of the current pacing for the Fish Man Island Remaster as "Oh I can't believe people are complaining about One Piece being too fast!!" Because some of the changes made and panels cut out are just bad. They're bad decisions!

I can live with them cutting out the slow open of Luffy on Ruskaina. I can (unfortunately) live with them cutting out a huge chunk of Luffy and Hancock's conversation on the Kuja Pirates ship.

But the fact that they cut out the scene where Fake!Nami goes up to Real!Nami, only to keep her next to Real!Nami in the next shot...... That's just bad directing. She pops out of nowhere! Where did she come from? If you hadn't read the manga or watched the anime you'd be so confused as to where she came from!

I'm not brushing off the entire remaster as a whole, but I do think that people shouldn't be so quick to brush off any criticism of the pacing. You can both really enjoy the remaster and also be critical of it!

haha god listening to music and having scenarios in your head is so fun, yes the scenarios are about a hypothetical good relationship with my parents why do you ask

Jorge is talking, hardly stopping for breath. 'Valentino arrived on the scene and revolutionised everything,' he says. 'He brought radical change. I remember that at school, on the day after a race, everybody would be talking about the battle between Doohan and Crivillé... and then about Valentino Rossi! It wasn't normal for us to be interested in the winner of the 125cc race! But he did things differently, he started to improvise. There was a group of us who used to get together to watch the race at my father's track at the water park. There was my dad, his assistant Toni, my friend Rubén... we used to watch the races and then exchange opinions. Everybody said Rossi was a clown... Rubén and I were Max Biaggi fans... we used to criticise Rossi because we liked Biaggi and I suppose it was jealousy. If you don't like somebody you find it hard to admit when they do something well. It's human nature, especially when you're a kid. But we had to admit that this guy was totally original. He did things that nobody had ever done before. He was different from everything and everybody, he worked really hard and he was really fun.' This youthful, envious disapproval aside, Jorge has always enjoyed Valentino Rossi's celebrations, who why not give them a try himself? Once again it's that same old story, the desire to be genuinely original. In fact, his favourite phrase is, 'You have to be different.' He wanted to celebrate his victories, he didn't want to let his fans and his critics down - or himself - but clearly Valentino had been there first. 'When Jorge was little I used to think that Rossi was a bit of a clown too,' María suddenly interjects. 'It wasn't until I became involved in this business that I realised how wrong I was.' With that, she snapped us both out of our trance. We had been at their London flat for several hours, working on this book, and Jorge quickly picked up on what an interesting comment his mother had just made. Everything looks different from the inside. 'The thing is that Rossi has the ideal character to do what he does,' Jorge concludes. 'Ever since he was little, whenever he finished on the podium, Jorge would celebrate differently from everybody else. He jumped differently,' says María. Jorge looks at her, surprised. 'I used to jump on the podium?' 'You would shout, "Bieeeen!" and jump in the air,' she replies. 'I watch you at races now and it's exactly the same. You have the same face, the same expression. You are euphoric. You look exactly the same as when you were little.' 'I have always been very expressive, in victory and defeat. I used to go crazy when I lost...' 'And when you won!' María interjects. Now she looks at me. 'I remember being at a circuit once, at one of the first races he did. In fact I think it was his first race, in San Juan. He was only three years old and it was raining. He kept having to stop and poke the mud off his rear wheel with a stick. And because he couldn't see anybody, because the race was over, he looked at his dad and said, "Have I won? Have I won?" The race had finished! The poor little beggar - everyone was laughing at him and he just kept riding.' 'I got lapped two or three times,' remembers Jorge. 'I was racing against much older kids - 10 and 15 years old. There was so much mud that the rear wheel kept locking up against the mudguard. But what's that got to do with my celebrations, Mum?' 'Because, Jorge, ever since the beginning, all you ever thought about was winning. It was all about winning, winning and winning. Celebrating it, sharing it, have developed naturally.'

Strangely enough, Jorge's first notable celebration didn't come in a motorcycle race but during a school football match in the playground of Milagrosa when he was ten years old. 'I don't know if you remember when Valentino Rossi won at Jerez and packed the bike up before running into one of those portable toilets they have at the Grands Prix. I can honestly say that I can't remember if I did it first or if I'd seen Valentino do it... I think I did first,' he says, gazing into the distance. 'Anyway, the fact is that I'd planned it. I decided that if I scored a penalty I would run off and lock myself inside the school toilets. Sure enough, I scored and off I ran. My friends fell around laughing. I've always been a terrible footballer, but I enjoyed that!' His first celebration of note at a racetrack came in the 50cc Copa Aprilia at Montmeló in 1998. 'I won, stood up on the bike and raised my hand, then raised one finger. It seems such a normal thing to do nowadays, but people didn't tend to do it back then.' It also became normal to see Jorge on the podium sucking on a Chupa Chups, the famous brand of Spanish lollipops that have been long-term sponsors of Dani Amatriaín's teams and riders. 'It wasn't long after the time when Johan Cruyff used to do something similar [on the bench, as manager of F.C. Barcelona].' In Brazil, when Jorge won his first Grand Prix, back in 2003, he mimed the action of firing a gun. Then, in 2004, he pretended to play the guitar after beating Dovizioso at Brno. 'In the end it looked like it was supposed to be a Spanish guitar but I'd wanted it to be an electric one!' All these early celebrations were merely a hint of what was to come. Over the years they have made plenty of people smile, but perhaps none more so than Juan Llansá. 'I find them really funny,' he smiles. 'Even though I am almost 50 years old now, I enjoy them as much as if I were 20! I get involved whenever I can. At the British GP in 2006 I wore a Dutch hat and glasses. I really like the fact Jorge does these things, because they're intended as a present to his fans. That gets me going, it gives me energy, because if you switch off you may as well not bother. You have to enjoy life. The day I stop enjoying being with Jorge, it's time to pack up and go home!'
