ffs y'all there is no timeline for your life, there is no schedule. there is no entity going "you're 25 you should be out at the club partying" and "at 26 you should be hustling and building your career" or "if you're 30 you should at least have gotten married and had two kids already"
there is no universal timeline for human growth and development. yes we are put through education at certain ages but even that is flexible (I was skipped past kindergarten so I was a year younger than everyone in my classes). you can take a gap year after high school before college or not even go to college. you can be an introvert and not enjoy going out in your 20s -- and you shouldn't force yourself to just because you believe that's you're "supposed" to do. just because other folks your age may enjoy the thing doesn't mean you have to do it if it sounds repellent to you.
I beg you to think about whether you actually want or need to do the thing that you think society expects of you. you don't have to have kids if you don't want. you don't even have to get married if you don't want!
I never, ever got the point of going out partying or dancing. I'm not a sociable person. I would rather have a quiet night at home or with a few close friends than in a strange place full of nothing but strangers. getting out of my comfort zone HAS been worth it and there are times you should push yourself. but you don't have to be on the same timeline as everyone else. you're allowed to chart your own course.
I can't say I'm a perfect example because here I am at 51 with no job and no career training, no real idea where to go from here, but I've done interesting stuff nonetheless. do I regret not finishing college? sure. could I go back and finish it? probably, actually! (even though I still don't know what I want to do when I grow up...) but I never wanted to be a mom, never really found someone I truly wanted to be married to -- though again, that's not to say I never found love.
just... don't stress about it so much. you will be happier. I promise.

When I was about twelve or so, our house was robbed.
Our parents were away on a business trip, and they had hired the daughter of a trusted friend of my mom's (the friend was also one of my teachers at school) to watch us overnight. During the night, the daughter woke my brother and me up, told us we had to go because there was an emergency, and took us to her mother's house. We didn't grab clothes or anything. I remember the teacher making us crepes in the morning.
After our parents came to pick us up and we got home, we fdound that the place had been thoroughly robbed. Computer equipment (new and expensive at the time) was taken, along with a TV and other things -- I'm sure some old silver was grabbed, maybe some of my dad's power tools. How convenient the thieves knew no one was home, right?
They were let in by the girl watching us. She called her boyfriend and a few friends, got us out of the house, and let them at it. I don't remember how they were caught, but it was pretty open and shut, and one of the guys was forced to pay restitution for a while after. I honestly look back on that event now with shock. I can't believe I still trusted the teacher afterwards; she had to know what her daughter did, and she still made breakfast for us in the morning like it was nothing. To this day, forty years later, I lock everything up no matter how briefly I'll be out of the house or the car. I am permanently scarred by this.
And I still don't go as stupidly fucking overboard as that woman in the video. That is some fuckin security theater bullshit. As paranoid as I may be, relatively speaking, I don't put a Ring camera on my door or security cameras everywhere. Because I also value my privacy and have no faith that something like that would actually protect me.

Possible hot take but I've always enjoyed the fact that Harvey seems to be immune to Pamela's pheromones and toxins. The only time we see this is in Dark Victory (as far as I'm aware):
Tumblr media
Yeah, we get no explanation. Yeah, it's kind of silly, but I enjoy it. I'd like to see it be used more in comedic situations. I've seen people come up with reasons as to why it may be, one being that because half of Harvey's skin is burnt (including his nerves and such), that her secretion just literally wouldn't work the way it would with a physically normal person.
Additionally, the acid from the attack would have seeped into his skin, fucking his immunities up in all sorts of ways, therefore his pre-exposure to nasty shit would assist with such. Sort of like Joker.
Fair enough.
BUT, I like to think that, similar to Bruce - who in many cases can 'get over' Pam's thrall due to his sheer willpower and mindset - Harvey can do something similar. He is a man of two minds, two racing thought processes. So, sure, why not? Perhaps his mind is too 'busy' to even acknowledge something physical. This is even more amusing to me since I view him as a hopeless romantic (like, c'mon, when that MF crushes, he CRUSHES. Fucking wet cigarette of a man. /pos).
Pam is an exception to this, however, because her advances are not genuine, and Harvey already has experience 'dating' her and almost fucking died (that one BTAS episode).
Anyway, I would enjoy another scene in some DC media where Pam is trying to get Harvey under her control for whatever reason, and he just stands there like:

whenever i married penny in 1.6 pam threatened me and that was perhaps the only time i've had the fear of god instilled in me.
like she said "you better take care of my girl" at the end of her rant and i physically went "yes ma'am" even tho she can't hear me.
now i give penny an emerald every morning and she asks me if i've eaten and it's so AUGH i love my wife

Even though I know there isn't a snowball's chance in hell that we're gonna get Final Pam in the Fallout show, I like to think that because the show is set on the west coast and will presumably stay there, Final Pam is out there in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, causing chaos and destruction 💚

Well, so I figured out why I thought Midna Marie's (Link's Mom) face looked familiar.

I swear one of my favorite games on here is "Identify the fandom".
This is not to make fun of anyone who doesn't tag, it's just a thing my brain does where it HAS to identify what subject the post is about. If I've watched or read the thing, then it's no issue. If I haven't, or my interest in it was decades ago, then the difficulty scales up.
Often I find myself thinking, "I got nothing" so I look at who posted or reblogged the thing, and I usually get my answer. (i.e. an author I follow is into Magic: the Gathering, but I only played it briefly in the few years after it came out and only recognize things about it because of this association. I've never watched One Piece, but I can name some of the characters now because of someone else I know who regularly reblogs stuff about it.
You know what. This is enrichment for my enclosure. (And not an invitation to stop using tags, lol.)

You do not understand how insane I am about Pam and Clive. Like, they’re definitely gonna make each other worse, but that doesn’t matter right now. Clive probably thought Pam was the last person he’d see before he died. Both of them are at rock bottom. They’re having the time of their lives. Are they friends or do they want the other dead? Who knows.
Also they’re coworkers and they have committed unbelievable human rights violations
Terrified for how their stories will end, but I’m gonna pretend they’ll end up happy

It's really disheartening to me to realize that ever since The Office disappeared from Netflix it seems almost any kind of conversation I see about it on SM is overwhelmingly chauvinistic if not outright misogynistic and revolves solely around how Jim and Pam are Satan. I don't know to what extent the podcast and the BTS books influence this, but it seems all I hear is some variation of how their lives were ruined when they got married and had kids, Jim is a [redacted] for not cheating on Pam when had the opportunity, that they're the most awful, toxic people in the entire universe, that Roy should have throttled Jim for horsing around with his fiancee. It seems that this is all anyone is willing to talk about and it's so gross and dishonest and I definitely did not hear this kind of talk when the show was going on.
Granted, these two weren't my favorites, and that final season storyline is definitely an example of the writers needing to be stopped before they hurt themselves and ruin the legacy of the show, but...Jim.and Pam were not monsters, the infidelity they engaged in (the S2 kiss) was fairly mild, and their problems were pretty mundane and realistic. I just hate seeing them being constantly caricatured as the worst people alive.

I rarely post anything Breyer on here, especially my horses, but the shade difference between the chalky glossy FAS (the one on the right) and the non-chalky FAS on the left is amazing.
Also, the one on the left is a bloaty and that's why he's on my sales list. I'm holding the chalky glossy FAS because he doesn't stand lol. Every rare horse I have has something kinda wrong with it (especially if it's a vintage test. I have so many wonky and worn vintage test colors).
