#that 30 mil if he actually got it

[maxe-murderer]

ok once midterms are done and i have a bit of free time i might write out a post breaking down why hidgens asking for $30 million to fund working boys in hatchetfield ape-man is absolutely insane in every way possible

[compacflt]

COMPACFLT, ma’am, you’ve absolutely wrecked me with: “My father—my father was kind”. I can’t even tell you exactly why, but that just struck right in the chest with the force of a sledgehammer, gosh. If it’s alright with you, could you please share your headcanons about Ice and Mav’s fathers? I know I’m, like, quoting your own work back to you but I can’t help it: “Well, dead pilot dads, that’s one thing we have in common.” —But do they? Or is one dead pilot dad vastly different from the other?

ice’s dad (Thomas kazansky sr.): asshole army major OH-6 and UH-1 pilot who got shot down over Vietnam in 1967. son of far-eastern-european immigrants. anti-commie. wanted ice to ALSO be a chopper pilot in the army, so ice went navy instead. daredevil dipshit who died & left ice’s mom alone with two young kids & whose death encouraged ice away from breaking the rules or being unsafe (esp. in the air). not necessarily a great person or a great father but died when ice was 8 so also not a huge influence on his life (i know val kilmer has said ice’s father was a big influence… I’ve written elsewhere about why i personally shifted ice’s narrative away from daddy issues and more towards Navy authority in general issues, in light of ice’s character and rank in tgm. GOD i need a master post sorry, but i think you can find it if you search “edts notes” on my blog and scroll for a while). ice’s LACK of a father -> no man to model himself on -> overcompensating & not getting it exactly right (doesn’t know how to talk to other men) -> maverick immediately clocks him as gay -> the plot of my fic.

Maverick’s dad (peter “duke” mitchell sr.): a genuinely awesome person. funny & kind, warm & loving, a truly good father & a great fighter pilot. big american patriot. Comes from a long long line of us navy personnel—maverick has the navy family name & the pedigree ice, as a second generation american, does not. Im still not sure who raised maverick—it’s one of those things I don’t have a strong opinion on, so it could go either way (i posited in the airplane one-shot that he was raised by relatives, aunt & uncle, but I know it’s a popular hc here that he was a foster kid—all equally plausible to me) but I do think he grew up exceedingly bitter, hearing about how great his dad was and how there was just no way! his dad could’ve failed the Navy the way he supposedly did, because he was just such a good person… there’s a real bitterness about original maverick that TGM maverick kind of lost. His bitterness only shows during the “it’s not the plane it’s the pilot” “EXACTLY” exchange (incidentally the scene that gave me the idea that Bradley thinks mav pulled his papers bc he’s openly gay…it’s the pilot not the plane, ouch). but i still think maverick is like deeply deeply bitter about how the navy handled his fathers death, which is what the excerpt i posted on wednesday is actually about—he confesses to ice how disillusioned he has been with the navy as an institution since he found out the truth about his father’s heroism. I know i just just just said that Maverick’s patriotic conservatism is his reason for existence in the meta “why we make mil propaganda movies” sense, and i stand by that, but i think on a human character level there probably has to be a little bit of deep-seated resentment towards the Navy for smearing his father’s good name and his own good name in the process. My maverick grew up a good Christian kid, called himself peter jr. after his good guy father, who never broke ANY rules until he was radicalized by not getting into the academy (“punish the son for the sins of his father”) and basically lost his mind for 30+ years. “If my family name automatically makes me a sinner in the navy’s eyes, then I might as well sin anyway.”

We had a great day! Aside from a little mishap with brunch. My little brother (not actually little, he's 21 😂) and his girlfriend live with my parents and they thought they were supposed to leave for brunch at 10:30, not meet at 10:30. So my parents ended up leaving them to meet us but they were still coming they were just running late. So we waited at the restaurant for quite a while. Whatever. And then they show up and his gf is just miserable to be around lollll she was so negative. And my brother sat on his phone the whole time so like why did you guys even come!

But other than that it was a really nice day. My parents gave Cole and me a $150 Visa gift card and said our next date night is on them. So nice! Knox played hard and crashed when we left.

The boys left for my MILs so I get the night off! Just browsed Target leisurely. Got a couple books. A fancy candle. Face mask and eye patches. And a couple bath bombs for my boy because he's super into them right now.

Waiting for my sushi to be ready!! Then I'm heading home to stuff my face and either read or watch TV or both all night!

Daycare dinner

We are having the four daycare ladies over for a thank you/celebration dinner tonight. Ordered food and cocktails. Got them each flowers. For 7.5 years they took care of at least one of my kids eight hours a day for five days a week. Its time to move on but we will still see them. One babysits all of the time. Another one is a great Aunt to the girls classmate - so we always do things with them. They all come to the girls shows/events. We will still use the daycare as a backup when we need afterschool care. They also seem happy to have the girls for an afternoon. The girls love going to hang out with the babies.

I'm glad we are doing it but also tired and would love to lay in bed watching TV. I don't think they will stay late. Maybe I'll have a cocktail and want them to stay???

I booked the girls and I cooking class for Mother's Day tmrw. We are making a raspberry cake. Should be fun.

Sunday my husband booked a brunch for his Mom. Very glad he recognizes this is his responsibility. Baby boy at a restaurant is not my idea of a good time. Even more so when I'm getting (or maybe imagining I'm getting) disapproving looks from my inlaws. Husband def said I can take the day off. Normally I would take advantage of that but in June I have two girls weekends planned. An Austin one with grad school friends was planned a while back. Then a few weeks ago a bachelorette for my last friend to get married was scheduled for Charleston. I really didn't want to go for expense and leaving the kids reasons. But she's been going to everyone's events for years so didn't want to say no. Anyway, those seem like more then enough alone time. He kindly said I can decide on Sunday. Maybe I'll just take baby boy to the park so they can actually enjoy the meal. We also ordered my MIL homemade frozen challah from the JCC on our block.

My husband and his sister also planned a nice anniversary dinner for about 30 people for his parents. Again, I'm glad he gets that shit done. All he asked was a confirmation I don't mind that we split the costs (of course not) and to look over the menu. We will all go to a YMCA family weekend afterward. The kids will be in heaven. Their cousins are flying in from California.

[loserchildhotpants]

October is a minefield of triggers for me, so I generally float through it, derealized and violently numb, with random lightning strikes of paralyzing anxiety, and that's just... normal. For me. I don't expect anything less.

I didn't hear from any of my family on my anniversary. It was a big one - Nathan and I have been married for a decade now. I was strong-armed into a wedding, I didn't want one, I wasn't comfortable performing socially like that at 19 for people I barely spoke to, that barely knew me, but my mother steamrolled past me like she always does, and I hate memories of my wedding.

I hope to have a re-do sometime, if/when there's ever expendable income again.

Anyway, I wasn't even taking it that hard. My sister sent a gift a few days beforehand, my MIL called the day of, and that was the extent of what I heard from relatives/loved ones.

Then my Aunt texts me a few days after the anniversary w lots of photos of my cousin proposing to his gf and the blow out engagement party they're throwing right now - pictures of the dessert table with homemade, personalized goodies, and balloons, and all sorts of feel-good, celebratory stuff.

It's a group chat, so it's actually my sister that mentions to my Aunt that my 10 wedding anniversary just passed - I could feel my sister's frustration. I was belatedly congratulated, and then the acknowledgment of my impending birthday was brought up, and I explained I'll be turning 30 - this also came as a shock, and that Nathan and I just bought our first home 2 months ago also comes as a shock.

Whatever. My Aunt couldn't have known that any of that would be hurtful, and it's not her fault that my parents are just absent and deeply ambivalent about me.

The next day, I wake up to texts from both my parents (neither of which speak to me at all, really, so it's always jarring to see a notification from one or the other, nevermind both at the same time), and my mother is telling me to call her, and my father is demanding to know about my moving, demanding my new address.

With my father, I could tell he was embarrassed, and so probably angry. I brought up the fact that he'd spoken to me two or three times in the months before I moved, wherein I told him about the home buying process, and around what time we'd be moving -- we were in contact because he needed me to sign stuff for his last will and testament.

He knew I was moving, he knew I was buying my first home, he just didn't care enough to remember, and then is angry with me that his sister is like 'why didn't you mention Melanie bought a house??' and got caught not giving a shit. I sent him my new address, and he deigned to finally passive aggressively reply to me with a 'thanks for the update' the following day.

As for my mother, she was calling to ask how old I was turning. She flew right past my missed anniversary - again, which was HER making - and I wouldn't be mad, I really wouldn't, if it had been MY wedding. It wasn't, though - it was HER fun party, and it's pretty fucking insulting to have even her forget about it. She has a lukewarm reaction of surprise to my being married a decade, gives a half-assed 'congrats' and then asks about my birthday.

As is typical for her, she has nothing kind to say about me, nothing about being proud or interested in my plans or anything, just wants to know if she can send money for a dinner and spent 10 minutes complaining about how this makes her so old.

When she asked how she was supposed to remember my wedding anniversary, I brought up that she was the one that planned it and set the date ? That didn't evoke anything, and when I told her the date, thinking she'd put it in her calendar or something, she was like, 'oh, that's the same day as [my renter's] birthday! It'll be easy to remember now!'

And I almost just... hung up. Astonishing to me, truly, that that's where I'm at on her scale of significance.

To be honest, I don't want attention from my parents on my birthday. In fact, I really wish they'd be consistent for fucking ONCE in my life and just fuck off for all of October the way they do for every other month of my life.

They don't talk to me, they don't provide anything, they're critical, judgmental, and mean, and I limit my contact with them so that I don't drive myself to further illness.

I just wish they'd stay away. I prefer the silence. They don't care and I know they don't, and I don't have to see and hear about how much they don't care, until it's October, arguably the hardest time of year for me, and then they have to find ways to jumpscare me and complain about how my existence is somehow inconvenient for them.

Like, I know. You've let me know my entire life how inconvenient I am for you. That's why we don't talk. Can you fuck off again now? Why are you here??

It feels like being bombarded with extended family information and then immediate family interactions shoved me from 'gently dissociative,' to 'violently derealized,' and I've never been able to pull myself out of derealization.

So nothing is real, and nothing matters, and neither do I, and I'm turning 30 on Monday, but that's not real, and talking is so much effort -- making words is so much effort, and they don't matter, the noise isn't even real, I'm just shoving air into difficult shapes when I could be sitting in silence and decomposing much more peacefully.

There isn't a point to this, really. I don't feel anything. I mean, I feel things, but like, several degrees away from myself.

I really want to be happy, and to feel happy, not just to objectively understand I'm experiencing happiness, but to feel it. And that's... I dunno. A mountain on the horizon that gets smaller in the distance the more I hike towards it.

It's really difficult to see my Aunt being a Mom for her kids, being present and happy for them, doing stuff that makes them happy, being involved -- it's hard to watch anyone else experience maternal and/or paternal warmth and pride that I'm constantly denied.

It's really hard to have both my living parents effectively orphan me because I am at once too much and too little.

I lie awake at night going 'what's so wrong with me? What'd I do wrong?' -- I'm turning 30, and I'm still up at night, going 'why doesn't my dad like me? Why does my mom make me feel badly about myself on purpose? How can I change to make them proud? To make them love me?'

And the answer is that I can't do anything, they won't change, nothing I ever do is going to be good enough, they're both self-obsessed, emotionally immature people with varying degrees of personality disorders they refuse to acknowledge, much less work on, and academically understanding that does not, in fact, silence the lonely, crying child inside me.

Subeta December Log (as of Dec. 5)

I thought it would be fun(?) to keep track of my progress on Subeta. It's easy to feel like I did nothing from doing a little bit everyday, especially when training!

Battling:

Valechka, T12 | To Next Tier: 14637 > 15524/22001

Estelle, T8 | To Next Tier: 4923 > 5016/5400

Serah, T8 | To Next Tier: 4426 > 4533/5400

Snow, T7 | To Next Tier: 3705 > 3834/4400

Bought the autumn sphinx, so I can work on unlocking the Ancient Sphyx.

Defeated Diavester. I can consistently clear BQs level 30s without needing to skip challengers.

Defeated Possessed Maleria. I didn’t know Valechka could do that yet. I only got two wins on her officially though.

I CAN defeat Possessed Mage, but it’s still a tough battle that I occasionally skip.

Beat Kain 5 times. I’ll get those last 5 wins later… He has a whole range of icons that I find hard to block. I’ll try using my Paintbrush Blades to see if that helps. Anyways, I remember really wanting to get his weapon drop months ago, but uh. Aside from the Ice block, I don’t actually need it since I beat Rouland… It’ll be nice for my lower tier pets I guess.

Fireside challengers! Valechka had no problem sweeping all of them. I cleared up to Sister of the Sands 10 times with my other three. I hope next year has a stronger opponent.

12/20: Defeated the Final Corruption once. I don't have a strong enough Dark blocker, unfortunately.

12/21: Bought the Winter Sphynx.

12/26: I started farming 25/50/75+ clears on the default easy-medium opponents. Cleared Bibi and Lilah, Cursed Irion, Erdoo, Manticat, Mephysto, Muffin Man, and Oslyae. It is mind-numbingly boring, so I'll be watching some horror game let's plays to finish them. Wish I started this while the Fireside opponents were still here.

12/28: Farmed Buttwing Bomber, Eclipse, Laure, and Pock, Saper, and Riscors. All but one Mage Amulet were shards. Laure apparently has an earth amulet as a random drop, but I didn’t get a single one in 200 wins against her.

12/29: Farmed Technicant, Ujin, and Willowisp. I forgot I already had 120 wins on Ujin for Fireside, so that was nice.

Pet Progress:

Completed Enyalios' TC. He's ready for spotlight. I still have one more TC item, but it's 14 mil. and I don't want to pay that lol. I'll have it on my WL as a reminder to ask for it for next BF or to watch it in case someone has it for cheaper.

12/3: Bought my 42nd pet slot from the Millionaire Center (140 mil.) Adopted Daychime from the pound. Daychime is such a pretty name. I think I might turn it into my Angelic Scootle. I'm undecided. I don't have plans to build it up for spotlight. I have too many pets on my plate to consider that.

FINALLY got Vladislav' intel from 25-30 points through Mystic Spindles. Took me forever, because I hate that game. Once you figure out the 'trick,' it becomes tedious.

Added to Otome's TC. I'm, slowly, getting around to it while I brainstorm fun ideas to make my dreams for its profile a reality. I have to play with Colt's profile first, so I can use that as a basis for what I want to do.

Turned Otome genderless. I kept forgetting, but typing this post helped me remember lol.

Crossed off quite a few other WL items for my pets' TCs. I know I shouldn't do this until Lumi's over to see what I got lol but I'm impatient and I'm not going to miss out on a deal! I guess I could sell any duplicates... or hoard them. Update: I only got dupes of Quest and Esther items, so not too bad.

Fed everything in the 2018 Libertine Lounge tab to Valechka. I think.

12/10: Bought my 43rd pet slot from the Millionaire Center for 160 mil. Adopted Mirtis from the pound, who will be my Nightmare Kora or Graveyard if that one ever gets a revamp. I’ve been turning over a pet idea in my head for a while now… I might write something for Mirtis.

12/20: I updated Colt's profile. Added a border and rounded the corners of his TC items. Updated the minion info with the Colt count. Updated his description to better suit the idea I want to go with.

12/20: Fed everything in the 2019 Libertine Lounge tab to Valechka.

12/21: I finished drawing Meganium! I started the sketches back at the end of August, but couldn't settle on a good composition. Originally, Jumpluff, Cherrim, and Chikorita were a part of the team; but I replaced them with Totodile and Cyndaquil for type-coverage... lol. I also wanted to add a background... but I'm not good at drawing those!!! Maybe in another 10 years...

IDK if I'll give her a custom overlay or not. I don't know if the "four changes required for fanart" apply to custom overlays. It doesn't mention it in the custom overlay rules. I also don't have 500 CSC lol. And even if I did, I'd want to spend it on CS/pet slots.

Worked on Moonflower's story... Uhhh, hopefully I'll finish this before the end of this month? It would be nice if I could finish at least three pets this year. Last year, I completed four lol.

12/26: I finished Trea's profile. She's finally spotlight-ready, after several months of procrastination. :) Also changed her name to Lala, but kept her legacy name as Trea, because it's important and relevant to the story.

12/27: I finished Colt. I made his original profile back in 2022 (and it showed), but edited it quite a bit to be more sleek-looking. Can’t believe it took me two years. I need to be more on top of it for my other pets. Two years is a long time to do nothing.

12/29: Promoted Vladislav to the top level in the criminal career.

12/31: Fed everything in the 2020 Libertine Lounge tab to Valechka.

Event Progress:

Luminaire has started! I've gifted 218,587,326 in gifts this year.

My goal is to gift more people this year. So, I made a rule to gift everyone in the forum that I post after + picking random names I see posted in the various forums.

Mysterious Melody is back! I really like the group format. I never participated in previous MMs, because I’m not so active throughout the day. I usually play Subeta for an hour or two, before focusing on the rest of my day.

Day three and my MM has been great so far. I've been sticking to a value of 500k - 2 mil., but slowly ramping up. I do understand people not liking this version of MM, because it is very impersonal though.

12/18: Someone gifted me a Miraculous Shooting Star <3333333333 I've wanted this thing for SO long omg. Ahhh thank you so much to the anon who gifted me!!!

The most dangerous part about Lumi is going through people's WL and adding new (expensive) things to mine haha...

12/25: Yay, present time! I got so many goodies this year and I had fun gifting more people this year than last. <3

12/26: Skipping MM until Melody is tweaked. I'm pretty sure she's the one who's filling the pool with junk duplicates. I've been in two groups (in a row!) where someone bought four each of two food items. Luckily, I haven't gotten any. Unluckily, I saw that one of the users in my group post on the MM feedback thread and got 7/8 of the dupes. Oof.

Shops:

Lenora's Garage | Lifetime sP Made: 1,189,885,294 > 1,277,412,714

Lenora's Garage | Lifetime Items Sold: 37,965 > 39,819

Unicorn Mart | Lifetime sP Made: 161,661,276 > 179,312,733

Unicorn Mart | Lifetime Items Sold: 15,777 > 17,573

Sold all 27 of my SubQ invites for approx 5.37 mil. They all sold within 3 days for almost 200k per. Amazing. I should hoard them all for Lumi again. I know they’re a popular and relatively cheap gift, but not THIS popular.

12/26: Finally sorted my hoarding gallery, Magical Moments. There are so many Morostide items.

–

Other:

Recycle Beast Points: 899 > 1,670

Colt count: 2,291 > 2,305

Discount Card: 14,281,677 > 16,639,458 sP Saved

I completed my Serah cosplay! Bought the last piece I needed, which were my Pinkee shoes lol. If only Subeta had the restockable (and significantly cheaper) high-tops in beige. Alas.

12/5: The Recycle Beast had the Forj Ore and Singed Baguette Crystal as its items. I already had 91 ore and 41 crystals. I farmed the first two levels Forj Matriarch for more. I stopped after the first one stopped dropping the ores after 230+ wins. And I stopped when the second one started dropping a third type of crystal (also, no more ore). That was nice. I knew I made the right decision to hoard all my garbage.

12/8: Recyle Beast had the Faaat Pete Beanbag as one of its items. Battled Pete 50 times for 23 extra beanbags. He stopped dropping them after that.

The forum squish has begun... and I have no idea where anything is! I wanted to find the anon gift thanking thread but IDK where it went. Update: found it in forum games. I... guess that makes sense?

TBH I'm not minding the forum squish as much as I thought I would. The Pet forum is basically dead, aside from the "pick your fav above" threads (which got moved to forum games) and the two actually active pet threads. I think the advertising forum could include the arts + graphics shop threads. And then maybe the general art & creativity threads can go into chit-chat since that's basically what those threads are.

It's end of December and the Arctic Frost Chance Machine has still yet to return...! Womp womp. So sad.

[dausy]

Well we went out of town this weekend to celebrate my SiLs birthday and celebrate her college graduation and we actually had a decent time. We wondered around Santa Fe and Albuquerque. I lived in ABQ a long long time ago so time has certainly changed it and I've heard all the negative things about it recently but it was actually ok. We had a good time...except...

like nothing can ever be simple. Its a holiday weekend so we expected things to be a bit crowded and busy and ofcourse saturday evening our truck started giving us service errors telling us to check the battery. This is pretty inconvenient because its a new battery and we need to drive 4 hours to get home in this truck somehow. My husband and BiLs are a bit mechanically inclined and they figured it was the alternator something or another but now we needed a new alternator and its a weekend in the evening and everything is getting ready to close and nothing will reopen until tuesday. Husband definitely needs to be home for work on tuesday. So we call a bajillion shops trying to find one still open and miraculously one guy said he could get the part for us ordered and it should arrive by 10:30am on sunday (yesterday). He said he'd leave a message for his boss and none of this is boding well to me. Ive heard this phrase "let me leave a message for my boss" before and its code for "Im going to forget and nobody will get the message". Alternately my SiL and BiL offered there car if we needed it and we could drive it back next weekend to switch it out and they'd get our truck fixed for us but just sounds super inconvenient.

also simultaneously, my FiL (who did not go on this trip) had to get sent to the ER and admitted to the hospital. So now my MiL and SiL (who were on this trip) were super anxious and that also dampened the mood.

and then! to top it off, we were waiting for 10:30 to roll around to call about this part when I got a phone call from the boarding facility saying my dog got caught in a brawl that broke out between several other dogs. It wasn't my dogs fault, shes just little and got in the ruckus and had to go to the ER for stitches. They actually had to do more than that, she got sedated, has an ugly frankenstein wound and a penrose drain sticking out. The bright side is so far the boarding facility has paid for everything. She has to go back in a few days to get her drain out.

but overall I had some nice hiking and shopping and got to go to a zoo and aquarium and botanical garden and eat too much food...would have been nicer without the stress lmao T_T

(part 2) My dad caught COVID on the plane back. Which meant he couldn't attend the wedding-related "meetings" we planned with the parents. Which made him unbearable. Both sides were trying to make the whole thing as cheap as possible (the parents pay for weddings here)- the cheapest menu, venue, music, everything. I don't remember a lot of things from the planning. But at one point they got so overbearing and trying to undermine everything we just gave up. In our country, the bride's parents buy the wedding ring for her husband, and vice versa. We were so sick of their behavior, that we decided to get ridiculously expensive wedding bands since both sides wanted to show off how much money they had. Because they rushed everything, we ended up married 6 weeks after the proposal. There were about 30 people, all of them mandatory for weddings (there would have been more people if no one was in a rush but not everyone can get a last-minute plane ticket). I managed to get all of one friend to attend, my husband had no friends. Because the parents planned the guest list and we said only the core mandatory people, his parents didn't even ask if he would be inviting any friends. My parents paid for my dresses for the few different official events with the in-laws that tradition demands. My husband's parents (who again, knew about this for a year and a half already, were complaining they were running out of money) got him nothing. Official events include family dinner at my place, and family dinner at his place - only parents and siblings and their partners. Then we did the church ceremony with the 30 people, with a lunch at a restaurant afterward. The actual marriage certificate we got two weeks later on our actual anniversary, and we had lunch after with the 10 people in attendance. The restaurants were shitty both times. Since we lived out of town and were busy with work, our parents had to check which places we could book for the set date. They made a list of the cheapest places in town, and they're all cheap for good reason. Terrible interior, bad service, cheap food, and barely any space. They also made a list for the music, and did the same thing again - listed the cheapest bands which had like three people in them. Thankfully we handled the photographer so the photos were amazing. I worked with a florist for the decoration which made the place a bit nicer, but still pretty shit.

I never wanted a traditional wedding. I just wanted to skip the dumb and outdated traditions, get a marriage certificate, and have a small gathering at a nice venue. Well, we skipped most of the traditions. The traditions I hate include the young unmarried men in the family hiding the bride in her house and only giving her up in exchange for money from the groom and best man. There's shit like dancing on tables, a couple of other "money in exchange for the bride" things, and copious photos of the bride giving gifts to her future in-laws family members. After the wedding, everyone goes back to the groom's house where the bride is supposed to dip her finger in honey. oil? (I forget) and draw crosses on the door to her new home, and then the party continues. My MIL insisted I do that one, my FIL filmed it and sent it to my parents. Because no one went to the groom's house because we weren't doing that part.

I remember one conversation I had with my narcissistic grandma the day before, who insisted we still do all that "giving away the bride for money" in the restaurant itself. This is the same woman who pretended to have a psychotic break a week before the wedding and spent a few days in the hospital. We know she pretended because the doctors told us as much, but they still kept her for "observation" to calm her down. She pretended she didn't recognize anyone or anything, but was magically fine when my uncle called her up.

And then I was married and we spent the rest of the month living with my in-laws (as per tradition) to get all the documents sorted and get the marriage certificate. My parents gave us a huge chunk of money as a wedding gift, and his parents promised us half of the house they own (I have a recent story on this I'll share another time) as the other half would go to their daughter.

Living with them was when I learned how big my MIL's drinking problem was. She would go on these screaming rants about how my parents were master manipulators and planned everything how they wanted it to be, screaming at my husband for being weak-willed and getting fucked over according to her. My husband and I would go over to my parents, and the next day my MIL would be screaming about how we went over to get instructions on how to fuck up everything. It was even worse when she was drunk. We got everything with the documents sorted and got the hell out of dodge as soon as we could to our apartment. And we didn't speak to each other for a month and a half after that. Just trying to decompress and destress from the shitstorm we went through. When we finally started talking to each other again and started to relax, we spent a couple of weeks going over the shit that went down, which was stressful again. Finally, we went back to normal, the stress went away, and we both got incredibly sick. It was like the high adrenaline from the stress was keeping us going until we took a breather and we both crashed. While mine was a chronic flare-up, my husband's was a brand new thing and we spent the next four months going to over 40 doctors to figure out what it was. That's a whole 9 shitty shitty months that were supposed to be incredibly happy. We had tons of plans that we had to put off or completely cancel due to the drama from our families. And when the dust settled, and they tried to reminisce about the "wedding", all I told them was that I was just grateful to be invited. Because none of it was for me. The only things we got to organize were the photographer and the florist. It was like the random small tasks you would give to someone because they have free time and those things aren't too big of a deal so they can't fuck them up too badly. I only have a vague idea of why they were rushing everything - our original plan was to get the certificate and buy people lunch, we'd do the church ceremony and everything else at a later time when venues would be available, which was likely months later. We were planning on moving abroad, so everyone was likely panicking that we would never get married in a church if we didn't do it then and there. But these are just assumptions from throwaway things I've heard since then. Our travel agent actually had the dream little wedding that I had wanted a week after we did. The location, music, decor, menu, hell, even everyone's outfits and the weather, everything was perfect, just how I wanted it to be. I just wanna say I'm happy for her, even if I couldn't, I'm happy someone else got to do that whole idea. And I'm sure it took months of planning which we didn't have for some mysterious reason.

Oh, and as soon as the photos of us were shared online, I started getting phone calls from people asking if I was pregnant because it happened so fast. I started joking that I would start sending people my used tampons to just avoid coming up with an explanation of why the rush happened.

Speaking of pregnancy I just remembered, that as soon as we walked out of the church, my and his parents wished us a happy life and a baby as soon as possible. I laughed and told them that would require some sort of higher power because it was medically impossible at the time, and my dad said "Accidents happen".... Both sets of parents knew I had issues with my hormones that basically make me infertile until they're fixed. And I'm keeping some of them in check with birth control. So even if I stop taking it, I'm still infertile, I just don't get periods without birth control. But sure, accidents happen lmao

That's as much as I could summarize and remember, this happened almost two years ago. I'll be sharing more MIL-specific lore as soon as I can.

can i fist fight your entire family? ill pay for my flight too because holy FUCK??????????

@awkwardgaydude

Do its fairly well established that at this point they are not cheaper than anyone else.

They are blatantly charging the government more to subsidize commercial rocket sales

The russians were charging $86mil per seat on the soyuz after the shuttle was decomisioned. 3 seats

The us contract if for an 8 seater that costs $53 million per seat. The us government wanted 8 seats so its not like that’s a surprise. Criticism directed towards this is unfounded. Its a government contract. Design by committee is not Elon’s fault.

The russians dropped their price to $8 million per seat in case you’re curious

But like I said, other than the illegal price dumping to reduce commercial costs so they can advertise a super low price this really isn’t that bad

My biggest issue is that they aren’t profitable and haven’t yet delivered any real innovations

Remember that they got money to develop starship for moon landings so why are they broke? They aren’t profitable

They save money and weight by making their own avionics. Cool but astronauts and all serious professionals esionals in all industries hate touchscreens. Buttons and switches are more useful

Super heavy has flown like twice. They spent an ungodly amount of money on super heavy and have had two flights that they got paid for.

The problem is no one needs a kerosene rocket. Weight savings are never used as weight savings. If the hydrogen rocket that cost 30 million more get me 10 more kilograms to my orbit than I use it. Why? Because 10 kilos of station keeping fuel makes my $100 million to $1 billion dollar satellite last a few more years. $30 mil is irrelevant.

Space X’s first rocket (assuming it was ever profitable) would be doing fantastically and could put Electron out of business if they still made it. This pisses me off the most. They had a profitable rocket (which had teething issues) and the small launch market has exploded. Those people also don’t need support services this is evident by the fact that one of SpaceX’s bigest programs is dropping CubeSats. I will go into this more later.

They (Elon) make absurd claims. Their space suits don’t work. They have not and will not ever be used.

And most importantly, the engine.

THE Merlin engine

The one that put spaceX on the map.

How can I say they have had no innovation? The merlin engine fucks, hard

But they didn’t invent it

NASA commissioned JPL to design a cheap disposable carbon nozzle engine that used kerosene.

So they did. And NASA said it was good but no rocket manufacturer would take advantage of this open source engine

Why? Because it sucks. There is a reason why kerosene just isn’t favored. Lower specific impulse (efficiency) means less mass to higher orbits.

It cokes up, overheats, wears out. Its a terrible choice for a reusable engine. It was invented as a disposable engine.

Now the engineers and rock surgeons at SpaceX have done a great job making it work. They have made improvements such as getting rid of the crappy carbon ablative nozzles.

They did a lot of work to integrate it.

But they did not do the real math, engineering, testing, science, and simulation to invent that engine. JPL did. JPL decided long ago that hydrogen was the way to go.

The reason the Raptor is struggling is not just because its very complex but because they haven’t designed an engine before.

SpaceX is a PR firm for Elon.

Why does ULA want Bezos to succeed with his engine? Why not just buy Raptors from Musk? It’s simpler for one but the main reason likely has to do with the fact that both companies are developing their first engine and the simpler one is more likely to work. Turns out thats Bezos’s team can’t seem to manage it but regardless. He did lose half his money in the divorce.

SpaceX composites suck. Composites are hard. It’s okay to fail.

They keep changing carbon fiber parts back into metal after parts fail. Composites aren’t durable. I think its actually quite smart to change the big rocket to stainless.

Also fun fact 3D printed maraging steel can actually have a better strength to weight ratio than even 3D printed beta-C titanium and its got a higher strength density as well which is a fancy way of saying the parts can be smaller and stronger. No one is taking advantage of this yet that I know of.

So why is Glen Cockwell and SpaceX and Elon not successful?

Its because they aren’t focusing on what matters. Lighter rockets are better but not because of cost savings. Reusability is a trap but they just keep pursuing it. If they truly can lift 50% more mass by not reusing the first stage then there are people who will want that.

Also Northrop Grumman don’t make money on equipment sales. They make money on services.

SpaceX can’t maintain your satellites orbit. They can’t monitor shit. They have no real infrastructure of their own. A launch pad isn’t infrastructure in this context.

They have the communications satellites to provide those services so why don’t they? Who knows.

Also those satellites suck ass and are not profitable despite the first Starlink satellite being 110% subsidized. They are losing money after being given more money than they spent and charging for a service. Fucking incredible.

Universities have slaves err students to keep an eye on their cubesats so they don’t need those services but everyone else wants to pay someone to babysit their $1 billion dollar investment.

TEA-TEB ignition is cool but you could also just inject hydrogen peroxide. In fact a hydrogen peroxide rocket, like the British lipstick rocket, might have been a better thing for them to pursue. Not for reusability but just for simplicity. Fewer parts is good right? Why not simplify it further, make it more reliable, and even cheaper (maybe)?

Also TEA-TEB was used by the Saturn V so its not exactly a new invention.

Their crew capsule is an ancient design with liquid thrusters attached. It has touchscreens no one likes and comfy seats for the 10 minutes that they are in use.

PICA-X is bullshit and its just PICA. Its fucking wonderbread and automotive weatherstripping glue. Which is fine. It’s just an advancement of NASA’s tech they used on ALL the cold war capsules. An improvement? Sure. Cheaper? Maybe. Lighter? Yes. But Space-X barely improved it. In fact they might be better off trying to make a version that is easier to peel off. If they want to pursue rapid reusability one of the issues is removing old ablative material. Or they could make it thicker and just plan on using it 2 or 3 times without refurbishment and then scrapping it. Oh wait the original PICA material did that. Well we can’t have that.

Did I mention reusability is bad/dumb? How much lighter would the rockets be if the tanks were smaller, there were no landing legs, if there was one less engine that could re-light? What if the ignition mechanism was left on the ground? Relighting engines is pointless. You won’t make your orbit. May as well abort. No PICA-X on the fuselage. No grid-fins. NOTHING for reusability. If they could get 50% extra payload without doing all that, how much more would they get to orbit? Double the current payload? Maybe pretty close.

$1 million per engine - oh boy

But on a normal rocket 65% of the cost is in the engine. For a $67 mil rocket launch that means that ONLY (i know) $9 million is engines

As a disposable rocket its $90 mil

That means only 10% of the cost is engines. Let me ask you, if your life is on the line do you want the doctor that charges $10,000 or the one that charges $65,000? Because I do not want that fucking Kia Soul, walmart brand, harbor freight, twitter for android, JPL ripoff fucking rocket engine taking my ass to space.

I could go on but I shall refrain. A short post is good enough

Rant about chronic illness and drs.

Does anyone else get frustrated when they feel like drs aren’t listening to you because what you’re saying and what they’re seeing don’t match?

I saw a neurologist last year to ask for a reference for a mental health specialist that wouldn’t take me without a neurology referral (originally a gp referred me).

I talked the neurologist through my medical history, and told him exactly what I wanted to happen.

He asked me “have you heard of FND coz it sounds like you have FND”.

That was the ONLY mention of FND he made. He didn’t explain it, didn’t ask if I’d like to look into treatment options. Nothing.

My referral comes through that I have a zoom meeting with a psychiatrist, YAY.

Turns out it was 30 patients and 1 dr on the meeting coz it was a presentation not a 1-1. I wasn’t told this.

I finally get to the 1-1 and the FND team kind of…brushes over my frustration? They all agree I’ve got all the hallmarks of FND so the mental health crisis I originally asked about is just being ignored?

THEN they go through my medical history and basically say that every doctor I’ve ever seen was wrong.

But not them. They’re right. They give a whole presentation on how FND only has a 0.5% misdiagnosis rate so they’re obviously right.

THEN they ask me about day to day life, and when I mention that I always track how far I’ve gone and how far I need to travel to get back home…they decide that means I’m agoraphobic? And start asking pointed questions about “why are you afraid to go out? Why are you so convinced something bad will happen if you go out alone?”

Like. No. Not what I said. I said “if I go out alone, I recognise that it’s my responsibility to get myself home. So IF something goes wrong I need to have a BACK UP PLAN so I’m not always calling people for help. For example, if I’m going for a walk and I know I’m having a fatigue flare up, I won’t go much further than a 20 minute walk away, because I know I also have to walk 20 minutes back. But if I hit the 20 mins and feel ok, I might go another 20, I just keep in mind it will then take me 40 mins to get back…”

That’s not fear. I don’t avoid going out coz “what if I get tired” I just plan for it so I’m not stuck up shit creek without a paddle IF something goes wrong?? And they acted like that was unreasonable.

I had to explain this 3 times 3 different ways before they got it. And then they asked me “do you feel that you explain things well and other people don’t understand, but that it’s a problem with them not you”.

…

In this specific instance? Yeah. Coz at no point did I say “I’m afraid to go out” or “I don’t go out”. But when it was clear that they didn’t understand what I was saying I EXPLAINED IT DIFFERENTLY.

I’ve got 3 more weeks of this and I’m just starting to feel really gaslit. Like I know therapy, especially intense rehab like this, isn’t meant to be a comfortable experience but is it meant to make you feel this shit?

More below but just to get it out of my head:

I told them about an SA I went through in 2018 and when I told them I only came to terms with it when my MIL agreed that it was an SA, they all started saying “oh well maybe it wasn’t an SA it was just an ‘uncomfortable experience’ since you didn’t think it was an SA until she said it was, sounds like she influenced your opinion” …

So I told them the details I’d told my MIL and they looked horrified. And agreed that ok yeah sounds like SA.

They tried, without any details of the event, to convince me that I’d just said it was SA coz I’d been told so.

When actually, it’s because I’ve had my own safety and comfort ignored by my family for so long that I genuinely can’t always tell when someone’s crossed a line. I’ll know how I feel about it, but I’m “sensitive” and “childish” and “dramatic” so maybe it wasn’t a big deal. Until someone else took me seriously.

I told the CBT that I thrive in routines but cannot put myself into them. Like I need a fixed time point to build around that I myself cannot alter otherwise I just can’t make a routine.

So doing uni from home? I had a great routine! First lecture at 10? Ok up at 6, walk the dog at 7, have breakfast at 8, revision at 9, then first lecture starts!

Home with no work? Ok so I should clean, and walk the dog. Those are my two tasks. But they’re not fixed so they can be done whenever. So I don’t wake up until 1. And my mental health goes to shit because I CANT MAKE MYSELF A ROUTINE WITHOUT A FIXED POINT.

Her response “well you have to so you have to try.”

I mention that I’d asked my fiancée several times to wake me when she gets up to try and help kick start my day, but she would always say “but you look so tired. You must need the sleep.”

CBTs response “why is it her responsibility to get you up? You’re an adult. Get yourself up you obviously can”. So yeah. Loving that chunk of guilt.

And finally. I explained. Multiple times. “Breathing exercises make me light headed and more anxious and mindfulness exercises just make me panic more”.

“We’ll just try it. You need to try it until you find one that works for you. It’s really good just do it.”

I didn’t pull this feeing out of my arse. I tried these things FOR YEARS BECAUSE PEOPLE SAID THEY WERE GOOD. I hate them. It makes me feel so so so much worse.

I explained this to the PT who said ok then put on a video which was literally everything I said doesn’t work for me. And then looked shocked when I said I felt more anxious than when I started. That I didn’t like it. That it probably stems from a bad experience with it in the past and now it’s actually an anxiety trigger.

Her response to that was “well look around and see if you can find a version that works for you, because it really is good for you. Unfortunately there’s no “one size fits all” so you’ll have to look around”

I mean. I was under the impression that your were here to provide me with the alternative tools but go off I guess.

…

Like I’ve got 3 more weeks, that’s 6 sessions, of this. And I’m starting to not want to go already.

Is it sad that only 2 out of my 4 dogs can climb a hill

[yannaryartside]

Hello! Thank you for bringing this up

I actually have a theory, kinda has to do with the beef but with another element added: emotional incest. In other words, the reason Mickey never settled down is because of Donna.

For what we can gather from the age difference between the Bearzatto siblings (Mickey was born in 79 and Nat on 88, making Mickey at least 15 years older than Carmy, but is likely is 20 years since Carmy doesn’t seem to be that much older than 30) and the fact that Carmy’s father left when before he was 5 (he said he didn’t remember much of him), is is safe to assume that Mickey was more of a father figure than a sibling to the younger bearzattos.

So let’s asume theirs dad leaves when Carmy is 5 years old and Mickey is in his early twenties. He goes straight out of hight school to work in the beef until his mother quits. He became, from that moment on, the “man of the house”

I am latina. In our culture is extremely normal to parentify and hyper sexualize young boys when there is no adult male figure in the household. The young boy, regardless of age, is expected to support the family but also be devoted emotionally to their mothers (the actual head of the household). In some cases, if the adult male figure leaves the home after a divorce or a infidelity, the mother develops some sort of emotional fixation on their son, and starts to request the emotional devotion that you would expect of a romantic partner. This is called emotional incest. It can take many forms, but one that is very common is the rejection of the mother towards any romantic partners that their son had once they leave the house, they would say things like “nobody is good enough for my son”

I was reading a book for couples therapy and there was a story of a man that insisted that his mom came to live with him and his wife because her mom didn’t had nobody else and “how could they survive without me?” One night, the mil even interrupted the married couple as they were in the shower because they were “taking to much time”

I willing to be a lot of money on the fact that Mickey never contemplated settling down with a woman because Donna was to emotionally dependent on him. Mind you, he was still living with her in Fishes so is a good assumption to think he was living in his childhood home till the day he died. He was in his late 40’s, that is not normal. This is a factor that likely contributed to his depression.

He was extremely charismatic, and maybe had couples here and there but is a safe assumption that Donna never liked none of them. So he will end things. Richie, who is a mirror of Mickey, managed to marry and have a kid at that point.

Edit: I just remembered something. In “Fishes” we see Mickey and Donna team up to bully Carmy into saying ily which could be an indication that growing up Mickey used to taken his mother side on arguments as a way to keep peace (the husband role). He also was very protective every time that Lee made Donna a shady business proposal. Then at dinner, Lee reminded Michael that he could fuck him up, which indicates that Michael and Lee got into physical fights when Michel was younger (and we don’t even know if he was a child when it started). There is even the horrible chance that Michael had to act as a guardian dog (or a punching bag) to prevent Lee from hurting his younger siblings. The more you think about it the worse it gets. The early physical abuse that he was not allowed to address (because he was a man”) likely contributed to his depression.

So I absolutely love reading the character analyses y’all post on here. And I recently had a thought.

It’s kind of been implied that since Mikey has good social skills, that he’s popular with the ladies. However, between spending all his time at The Beef and his depression, I can’t see him having time for dating.

Like when he tells Tina he doesn’t remember the last time he went to bed…The Beef consumes his life.

And maybe he retells his old party stories like Ceres over and over again because he’s been too busy for that since he took over The Beef and all he has are his old stories to reminisce.

I welcome anyone’s thoughts in this discussion!

Duke made me be his plus one to a Wayne charity gala. Here are things that happened

Cass and I traded shoes 30 minutes in. I think dagger pumps are cool and she wanted a pair of loafers

Steph punched someone in the dick

I bet Duke he couldn't get a single crystal off the chandelier without causing a scene

He succeeded and then immediately slipped on a stair and fell all the way down (im sure you've already seen the memes)

Peter "Call me Jay" Jasons loudly and publicly gave me the shovel talk about Duke

Tim and I "talked" (threatened) Lex Luthor into agreeing to donate 15 mil to the neon knights

I shook hands with the legend that is Alfred Pennyworth

Damian gave me another knife (where does he keep getting them). Steph says that this is a gesture of friendship. I asked him if he would be willing to watch my cat when Tim and I go to the San Francisco branch.

Duke, Steph, and I ended up crawling off a balcony to go to a midnight showing of Rocky Horror. When we got there Harper was already there.

And most importantly...

I met Lois Fucking Lane.

She shook my hand and actually listened when I talked about my and Tim's work on the Neon Knights!!! She actually seemed to care about what the younger side of WE was doing and what it was like to work there. So basically I have to find a way to thank Duke.

Taylor’s in a no-win situation. If the previously sold tickets were to be voided like some fans are asking for, people who purchased from third parties have lost out and scalpers will have been paid and refunded, earning likely more than 10x the original amount. If she goes ahead with the tour as-is, there will be big gaps where scalpers bought up groups of seats which is disheartening to see as a performer and a complete waste of resources for the venues. If she comes back online and announces a Rep style approach for the remaining tickets and rest of the tour, the people who got their tickets in the presales will have paid way more than everyone else and will ask why she didn’t do that in the first place. The scalping also makes it impossible to know what the actual fan demand is for these shows, do they need to consider more dates? Change the ticket options for future shows? Do fans actually want those VIP packages or was that their only option? All of these things are being placed on her despite it being a huge group of professionals’ JOB to organise big events and ensure it’s a positive experience for the artist and the fans so people aren’t so put off they don’t bother trying again. If she says fuck it and pushes the rest of the tour back until she can be sure it won’t happen every time, I’d understand.

I think what is also so frustrating is that the Reputation boost/verified fan system worked so well that it was considered the future of touring, and then Ticketmaster refused to do it again because they didn’t make the right profit. They function as a monopoly precisely by allowing scalpers and bots to purchase blocks of tickets and charging exorbitant fees - they always have and their profits have only increased with the dynamic pricing! Taylor can’t back out because there is nowhere else to sell tickets and she’s invested too much money and manpower in the tour already. I do suspect that she will release a press statement in the next few days once her legal team have figured out a way for her to criticise ticketmaster without opening herself up to lawsuits, but overall yes - she has no option but to soldier onwards and hope that by her next tour the anti-trust laws will have kicked in. It’s so disappointing for fans, I just hope no one is caught in the resale trap. No entertainer is worth $1000 a ticket and being ripped off and scammed taints the whole experience.
