#maybe this is a me thing

[pynkhues]

Oh my God! This is madness! I'm so sorry that people are attacking you because of FICTIONAL characters. iwtv fandom is the worst

It’s - - yeah, a bit much, and obviously doesn’t make me feel great. This isn’t the first time they’ve sent me messages like this, and I usually just delete (actually one they sent me was my Dad’s workplace, and I do have to say that after the initial feelings of violation wore off a little, it did make me have a slightly delirious chuckle. What a way to re-connect with my estranged father! I feel like there’s an indie black comedy film in that!) and like I’ve alluded to previously, I think it reveals a lot more about them than it does about me.

Like even being willing to say that you’d send a child pornography over fandom discourse is wild to me. You’d literally rather threaten to commit a sex crime against a child (two children!) than press the x button in the far right hand corner of your computer screen and load up a different blog that caters to your interests? Like how do you possibly feel good about that?

I do genuinely try to be empathetic though. The world’s a dark place at the moment, and I don’t know what’s going on in this person’s life, so perhaps my inbox has been an outlet for them, albeit a grossly inappropriate one, and all I can hope is that they either find a healthier one, or get bored and move on.

yes i am still thinking about mark drinking wine in key’s bed wearing key’s matching sweater and sweatpants WITH key’s shirt on underneath.

he’s so cuddly. he’s so affectionate. i can only imagine him showing up like “yes i’ll be raiding your closet now please. let me wear your clothes because i love you.”

one thing i’ve realized recently is that I despise when clothes cc has white as their first swatch... i’m a bit weird in that i refuse to have cc thumbnails in my game and it bothers me to no end when i erase them and all i see in my cas catalogue is white.. like AAA pls no

On my first day in Germany I got to my hotel and I couldn't get the lights to turn on. And I was like "Eh, fuck it, I'll just take a shower in the dark." And then the shower wouldn't get hot. I waited and waited and it stayed ice cold.

So I go down to the front desk and I'm like "My lights won't turn on and my shower won't get hot" so they send this guy up with me. We get into the room and I flick the switch and nothing happens so I'm like "See?"

And he goes "You must put your card in the slot."

"I... what? I have to put my room card in the light switch?"

"Of course!"

Now I have been in many hotels in the US and never encountered this concept, but apparently it was something most of their guests already knew. So I'm looking like a fool at this point. I feel like an idiot. The dude is fully grinning at me. I put the card in the slot and voila, the light turns on.

Then he's like "Ok, let's see if the shower works. You know you must wait for the hot water?" and I just know he's thinking I'm an idiot who also can't use a shower. This stupid American can't wait for the hot water! She can't even use a light switch or a shower!

And I guess he was distracted by these thoughts of my stupidity, because this dude fully stepped into the shower. In his nice dress shirt and slacks. He just. Gets into the shower.

And turns it on.

Have you ever seen a playing field get leveled instantaneously

one time I used the ben affleck smoking reaction image in the family group chat and my mom replied with the funniest possible response which was: "mommy doesn't know who the guy is???" and that phrase has not left my brain since. I'll see blorbos on my dash that I don't recognize and I'll be like well it seems mommy doesn't know who the guy is.

hey did you know??? that if you stop stretching and maintaining mobility in your body then it goes away?? things get tight and you can't move the way that you used to??? and when you decide to try getting a stretch routine going that the first week fucking sucks because you keep going 'damn i used to be able to do this no problem' and then you have to switch gears and be kind to yourself and just focus on getting better from here instead of berating yourself for dropping the good habits in the first place??? and your body never stops aging so you gotta keep taking care of it and sometimes you gotta take care of it extra in certain areas because of things that happened when you were younger and it's boring and sometimes hurts but it's so necessary???

i am yelling this at myself right now i am going through An Experience (trying to get into a routine of body maintenance again for my physical and mental health)

One of the worst feelings in the world: when you are just desperate, like claw-your-own-skin-off desperate, to create, but the only thing that even vaguely appeals to you to work on is a nebulous half-feeling that might be dreamily related to some half-formed notion of a concept. I must! Make! No thing! Only make!

learning that self deprecation isnt cool and just makes the people around you uncomfortable unironically improved my mental health a lot. like if you just stop saying negative shit about yourself you will genuinely like yourself more and other people wont be repulsed by your attitude and you will have more friends. it's true.

if there's one thing this last episode has affirmed for me about Alastor it's that he FUCKING HATES being reminded that he's not the most powerful creature in hell.

Like, he hates being ignored by Carmilla when she says she doesn't care why he was gone

He hates Lucifer ON SIGHT

He threatens to KILL Husk when he dares to mention that Alastor is working for someone more powerful than him

and now this.

Alastor freaking out because he almost died. Something almost killed him. He can fucking die. There is something more powerful than him out there. And it's not something he can ignore or brush off because it almost killed him.

Alastor hates the reminder that he's not as powerful as he tells people he is. He isn't indestructible, he isn't invincible. And he fucking hates that.

you guys can see this too bc even tho i was wrong i think it's funny

I'm sure someone's already brought this up but like. Viktor is still wearing the goddamned Blanket™️ here. Look at the inner part of it. It's red. The outside is sun-bleached and covered in arcane corruption, but that interior is still the SAME COLOR AS THE BLANKET. It has a bit of corruption on it, but at least for me, this is the same blanket. He kept it.
