#this is once again abt dumb stuff lol

[jimmyandthegiraffes]

I am not going to lie folks. I am at the end of my ROPE I’m going to SNAP

[olderthannetfic]

Reading the anon abt the doll hobby not having anti drama, and I just had to make sure it didn't mention the BJD hobby, because that one is filled with drama and anti drama. I'm probably more prone to look for drama, but some of it isn't hard to find.

Idk why but I almost wanna share some of my highlights, so I'll do that. Buckle up, this is a long one, and it's only scratching some of the dumb shit bullshit that's happened over the years.

People constantly let themselves be scammed. There are some well known people, and when you look up their seller names you can literally find people who keep up with their renaming because they're such notorious scammers. People still "take a chance" and then a few weeks later: Guys you won't believe this, I got scammed.

There was an entire thing surrounding a company (companies?) selling dolls in the tone oriental. People were using that name because that's what it's literally named, and other people got upset and started an entire discourse about it. Yeah, only that it was an Asian company that had named that tone, they had been made aware of some Western collectors being upset about it, and really didn't care. There are several instances of Asian sellers and companies from Asia using the terms oriental.

The discourse about one Chinese doll company who made a statement on their Eng twitter about supporting the CCP in attacking Hong Kong. People were rightfully upset at the company, which had previously been criticized in the Western hobby sphere for Nazi-themed dolls. Yeah, so people started defending the company, claiming that the only did it to not get hurt by the CCP. Except no other company did something that stupid. It took several Chinese hobbyists from China coming over and making it pretty clear that that company has a real bad reputation in the Chinese hobby to begin with, and to stop defending them especially for the HK thing because that was their choice.

The hobby is actually incredibly open for cultural exchanges, and appreciation. But every once in a while there are people who start bitching about cultural appropriation, and then everyone has to tell them to shut up because people love their dolls and just think it looks neat and want to share.

On the topic of cultural appropriation. Some times the people who bitch about it mess up and attack people of that culture. One such person made a red doll, put it in a qipao for Lunar New year some years ago, saying she's a dragon. Yeah, turns out the artist is Chinese, and the people angry about "White people take a red doll, put it in a qipao calling it a dragon are fucking racist cultural appropriators." Also, once that came out, even before that, a bunch of people once again came in and made fun of these people, especially those that culturally celebrate Lunar new year.

On the same wave though, lol, that artist who made the doll is infamous for her completely batshit doll pre-order, and then her trying to hide that she took the money of a bunch of people and ran. It's even a doll that a lot of doll ooak artist youtubers worked with. The entire story is fucking wild, beyond her trying to blame the company (one person?) who'd produce them, and then pretending it was some flaw with the system they used to let people order.

"If you use runes, I'm gonna view you as a white Supremacist until you prove otherwise." Scandinavians and even Scandinavian poc people told them to shut up (there were actually good arguments about how offensive that statement was, but it was a good dress down), and then clearly not Scandinavian nor Scandi poc decided to double down. Last I saw there was still a stalemate between the Scandi's, and people who're sensible, and the people who just wanna be racist about Nordic runes and call them all white supremacist and attacking Scandi poc.

Sex dolls aren't BJDs...

People are also bitching about "child coded" dolls being put in naughty stuff. The problem is that these dolls often are bobbleheaded anime looking mofos. Even in the cases where you have a child doll: It's still not child porn. It's a hunk of plastic, calm down.

Some doll companies, like VOLKS have raffles/lotteries to have a change to buy the doll. You heard that right, just to be able to buy it. There has been tons of discourse about how unfair it is that US people get to enter twice. Or how people who don't even want the dolls just the raffles.

Scalpers. Nuff said.

People who can't budget, and constantly make that everyone else's problem when they buy a new doll they can't afford and then start panicking.

Customs. By God the customs bitching.

Paypal friends&family. For the love of Christ, stop buying things from random people with F&F especially when you don't know them, or if they're a confirmed fucking scammer.

There's literally a guy who's doll at first glance have some of the best diversity and rep, but the guy is an absolute asshole, and part of the hobby don't really know how to handle it. Small list: Told a disabled person who got frustrated when they were completely unable to assemble it that his dolls aren't made for them. Constantly bans people from buying from him for the dumbest reasons, like 1) Guy asking how shipping would be handled during 2020. 2) Person who got a faulty product, and asked what to do with it.* 3) Assuming a buyer was another already banned person, when it was made clear they weren't he still kept the ban. 4) Basically anyone who critiques his dolls. *He claims "wabi sabi", even though some of the product issues are way beyond any wabi sabi aesthetic. He also calls his "haters" the "entitled" and once made a comic about "eradicating the entitled" and had a doll in a striking uniform salute with a flat hand. Yeah so a Jewish person mentioned how the wording and pic combined gave bad Nazi'esque image and that he should avoid it. He banned the Jewish person. (The Jewish person was very respectful about it, and explained why phrasing things like "eradicating the entitled" and some other stuff was not a good combination.)

--

I remember back in the 00s seeing endless wank over people's porny photoshoots with their multiple BJDs that were styled as a visual kei group.

Also everyone's favorite perpetual wank topic: "OMG, how do you have 5? That's my rent for months!"

To this day, I see the acronym "BJD" and think "Time for popcorn!" even though I rarely see the wank anymore.

[totallynoteggos]

lol hey this is just a vent post abt my life rn I don’t really expect any on u to read this

Tw if you do read this: talk of Anxiety, ppl not understanding neurological limitations, talk of vauge self exit and SH (its very minor) overall vent post shit

Sorry u have to see me in such a shifty mental state but I need to get this off my chest before I resort to violence

Once again, not KND stuff this is a Vent Post

I’m not neurotypical by any means I'm on some spectrum but all we know so far is that I have OCD and Anxiety. Also I'm going into the 9th grade which that In of itself is a stressful situation but in the last four years I've never stayed in the same school so seeing the same people is hella new to me. I have this really bad habit of going no contact with people after the school year is over because I usually never see them again. My mom can't seem to understand that there are simply things I can't do because of the anxiety & OCD (and I'm not using this as a reason to act out or defy her) abt 2 weeks ago we went to get food, now usually I order my food to make sure I get what I like and not have a mixup. And pls notice this was after a week long “vacation” that ended up being stressful and draining. But anyways there was a mixup and I ended up with a burger with all toppings instead of plain, which caused me to panic because I was hungry and stressed before already. And instead of trying to accommodate she stood firm in her beliefs that I need to get over it and just eat the damn burger. And I heavily insisted on not eating it and eating the fries instead. After a argument (and at the instance of my grandma) she bought me another burger and while in line I told her outright that there are some things that I physically can't do or else they send me into a panic. She that said that she “gets that” but I don't have to act out In front of my grandma which she idolized. And now like I said with the whole start of school she's saying “it wont be your best years if you don't let it be your best years” but I don't think she understands that I don't know how to do that. I've moved around a lot and I've been made fun of a lot due to my interests, hobbies and simply just to be the clown. Most of the people I befriend end up getting annoyed or just keep me around until I say something that doesn't make me the dumb and “quirky” one. And like I said I suck at keeping contact and now everyone still has their old friend groups and mine just see me as a joke or weirdo now. Its stressing me out so much and its only been two days, hell yesterday I would have thrown up from the stress but because I was so stressed I didn't eat shit so I didn't throw up. School stresses me out so much it's unimaginable, its the people, the sounds, the halls, the fact that people won't leave you alone, someone always talking or screaming, just please shut the fuck up so I can learn and be out of here. And god its so fucking hard not feeling what everyone else around you feels. My moms getting upset at me for not wanting to go on the busses when I have gone on one and it left 20 fucking minutes from my house cus the lady was screaming and I got scared as was about to cry. And now she wants me to try again with kids I don't fucking know who some how don't know personal space or manners. And back to the emotions things, why the fuck don't I feel the same as them, god I feel so fucking robotic compared to my mother and everybody else but they also make me feel like a god damned mutt. On one hand they think it's weird that I don't want to talk or to Interact but somehow don't realize that it's their fault I don't want to, and on the other hand whenever I'm upset or angry and actually show it its MY fault. Because apparently since I'm the youngest of my family im supposed to have the personality of pinkie pie and I have no problems. And because I'm quiet, friendly or just shy and I'm supposed to control my emotions because I'm a “young lady”. I've tried talking to my mom about home school because my school has that as a option but she says that I can't hide when she's been doing that too. Sometimes I feel like she cares more for the happiness of those she wants to impress rather than that of her family. But god if all of life feels like this then count me out cus its too much to be alive right now. I think ima take a shot or three of night quill and hopefully sleep until ITs to late to go to school

Goodnight

[selfshipgushing]

I got good news last night!!!

I have known my three husbands for three years now, just almost, and I’ve selfshipped with them officially for two years because the fandom is so. Cliquey? Really two-faced? I’d love making mutuals but i had to pretend I saw the three as a mum, a dad, and a child because everyone who didn’t was a ‘creep’ [there are def some creeps in the fandom but i don’t touch proship stuff I’m against it].And when I eventually did I was lied to, people were ‘nice’ but then like and make posts about why people like me with these headcanons are all weird n dumb. Hope that’s not too sad I promise you this gets better!!

I grappled with my feelings, first choosing two of them, then settling for one for a while.

Then I decided fuck it I’m going to love them all and I’m going to give em all I’ve got while i still have time. 

I grew up in a BAD foster care system. And their media shared similarities to my home life… I realised that if they could never leave their prison I could. It’s what they would want. I feel loved by them. They’ve helped me settle into society bit by bit, I’m still getting there, but I’ve got them. And my amazing real friends who have been kind to me.

There was recently a presentation I couldn’t attend [money reasons, travel reasons :’<]  and the creators of the show ………… well…. Made them canonically poly or at least expressed a preference/liking towards the ship. 

Bit of backstory, a dragshow based on my f/o’s media was created a couple months ago that made my husbands poly and the creators attended and were chill with it. I was over the moon. The drag performers attended the presentation and kissed n stripped n what have you after the creators expressed their love for fanart. 

Blasting a ship piece of my boys together on a huge projector for more minutes than should be allowed. My jaw hit the floor. 

So in short they kiss eachother, AND me, They’re all adults like I assumed, the fandom who was once so adamant on what was canon is now all death of the author the people who I remember having contempt for the ship are like ‘ah. That’s awesome what funny people huh guess we were all wrong’ through their teeth as if they weren’t talking shit earlier this year- this is cathartic. And I owe the creators my soul they make all my hcs canon I jokingly [and never posted this] hc'd one of the as Italian and they MADE IT CANON THROUGH HIS SIGNATURE. On my hands and knees I can now go about guilt-free without the fear I'll lose my boys <333 thinking about marrying them.

-☕ 🐸 again :3 [I think that was the way the emojis were last time- not talking abt the same f/o btw these are my MAIN mains lol]

because you brought up foster care, I wonder sometimes how many ppl fell in love with their f/os because they felt they could relate to their trauma. I honestly think that if I wasn't in the bad situation I was in when I met my husband I wouldn't have loved him nearly as much

[wyldblunt]

hi personal post just under a cut, it's not even serious or negative or anything i just feel like blabbering and it's embarrassing to have it out in the open lol

i NEED......... to get over how shy i am abt playing w ppl in game... it's not even just Running Content, i mean i get anxious/shy about even just. goofing around aimlessly/map completing with anyone i haven't known for literally years. or who i am not literally married to.

idk what it is!!! my brain immediately kicks into overdrive and gets completely clogged up with "am i not talking enough. are they getting bored. am i moving too fast/slow. i don't know what to do. this is stressing me out" and i have zero idea how to stop myself from getting like that. literally yesterday (SORRY IF THIS WAS YOU??? I THOUGHT YOU WERE NICE FWIW) someone came up to me and marina in game and said hi nicely and asked what we were up to and i like. Answered Once, and then did not talk again the whole time, and we sort of ran around together for a bit until i kind of lost track of them but the ENTIRE TIME i was agonizing over "am i being totally unfriendly and weird by not chatting. am i coming off like i want them to go away or just generally like an asshole" and as you can see i am also still agonizing about it now. even though objectively it was probably completely fine.

and EVEN WITH very good friends i've known for a long time i clam up like that... when i was trying to get into ffxiv some very good friends stopped by to give me stuff/say hi to my character etc and i got the exact same way!!! ppl i literally talk to all the time on twitter etc but then the second we're behind in game avatars i just get stressed out and start feeling super awkward and aside from like. jumping in place a few times suddenly forget literally every single thing i have ever known about human socialization

but it's dumb!!! and i'm so over it!!!! i wanna run dungeons and fractals and stuff, i even wanna scrape a group together to kind of activate my old guild again and claim a guild hall, stuff like that... and i KNOW the tumblr community is a great way to do that bc u guys are all so friendly and chill and it's way better than trying to throw myself into pugs or whatever. but oh my god. my fucking BRAIN, man

as i type this all out i do wonder if maybe a solution would be getting on voice chat w ppl while trying to play stuff together bc i truly feel like 90% of my anxiety comes from "i cannot type in chat and play at the same time, therefore i get super overwhelmed and confused about how to communicate naturally" and i feel like vc would solve that. but uh. if anyone does not mind sometimes running content with a guy who will probably be mostly silent and weird the whole time (the real glyndwr experience!!!!) please feel free to hit me up and i will get back to u between three and six billion business days

EDIT adding on more bc im still thinking lol. i just have a huge huge fear of coming off like a dick or like im unfriendly or something. ppl have constantly told me im intimidating for ages and it hurts my feelings and i get really antsy about it (this is why i never play reblog games abt like "rate how intimidating the person u reblogged from is" etc bc if anyone actually said they were scared of me i would get sad for real lol!!!). i naturally usually have a kind of flat/dry affect online and i make friends slowly, and i don't feel like changing how i express myself bc it's natural to me but. agh!!!! agh!!!! my wittle feelings!!!!!!

[guavagyu]

celebration for 100 followers!!

svt reacts to u two being under the mistletoe <3

requested by @nayaaatv ilysm 😻😻 (im sorry this took so long, my brain has been out of juices 😔)

some of these r rlly bad LMFAO im sorry 💔

contents: fluff, some r suggestive, established-relationship!au (not mentioned i dont think but it’s there!), mentions of alcohol and being drunk, gn!reader, reader is taller than woozi but around the same height for the other members (not directly mentioned again, but implied), swearing in a couple parts!!, nicknames (baby, babe, love, honey), lmk if there are more <3

the rest is under the cut!

scoups:

u two would be at a christmas party w all of ur friends

the music would be blasting all i want for christmas is you - mariah carey cuz duh

seungcheol would be kinda drunk and he’d stumble a lot

then you two would end up under the mistletoe from all of the stumbling

he’d say smth cheeky like “oh, look, we’re under the mistletoe, you gotta gimme a kiss now,” and have the goofiest smile on his face

you’d roll ur eyes at first but you’d eventually give him what he wants cuz who could say no to choi seungcheol? 😔

jeonghan:

cheeky 2.0

you’d also be at a christmas party cuz there’s mistletoe literally nowhere else

and this mf would meticulously plan everything out JUST to get a few teases out

would get SOOO happy to tease u abt it once his plan succeeds and you’d just be so done LOL

“hEyyYyy, look, we’re under the mistletoe, c’mon babe u gotta kiss me now, baby, where are you going?” he’d be confused and follow u around w the cutest pout on his face (ugh someone find me a yoon jeonghan pls)

once he caught up to u he’d just hug u from the back and put his head on ur shoulder and drop all his cheekiness cuz he’s desperate 💔

“babyyyy im sorry, i just wanted a ki-” and then you’d SURPISE ATTACK!! him w a kiss cuz ur also a devious gremlin

he’d buy u a drink as a prize cuz he’s impressed (i mean he’s not surprised he expected this type of stuff from u) at your outsmarting abilities

then u two would get home and do some uh…more outsmarting..

joshua:

this time u wouldn't be at a party cuz joshua is a gentleman who'd much rather chill at home w his partner 😔😔

u would be at home cuddling or watching a movie w ur christmas decorations everywhere

you’d get up to go get a glass of water or a snack

and once you made it to the kitchen and got your stuff, you'd feel large arms (urgh hit me w a bus) wrap around your stomach, intertwine your fingers, and hear joshua whisper into your neck, "look up, honey,"

and you did

guess what

badabing badaboom, poof, a mistletoe, hanging above the two of you

he'd (gently) turn you around and connect your lips together with a lot of passion cuz he's just like that

idk maybe it'd lead to smth more, who knows 🤷

jun:

i feel like u two would be at a party..unwillingly

like u would've planned a great lazy night w movies and snacks but then u get a last minute call to "get ur asses over here" to a party from a friend (probably hoshi ngl)

and you'd just be in the corner the whole time, sipping on your drinks occasionally and chatting (w him holding ur hand cuz he's so <333)

after a while of being looked for, someone would find u (probably hoshi again) and drag u two the dance floor or smth like that

and since ur friends are all asses (lovingly) they'd all shove you in the most [un]subtle way

and you two would end up just standing there under the mistletoe, not knowing what to do

but finally one of u would finally lean forward and kiss the other, hearing cheers and a lot of whoop's from ur dumb friends

hoshi:

u would be at a party or just a hangout w ur friends and he'd be sooooo drunk 💀

like his words could be barely made out and they'd be all slurred lmaoo (someone help him pls)

istg

he'd go into a different dimension with his drunkness

like he'll run around and growl like a tiger at ur friends (#sendhelp)

but then

oh! *light bulb*

it's christmas season!

his brain would brain a little and run around again looking for a mistletoe that he'll (temporarily) steal

then run up to you

hold his arm in the air

dangling it above the two of u

and kiss u

and then start cackling randomly for the rest of the night cuz he's so proud of himself

wonwoo:

u would be gaming the night away obviously

and he'd be training u to become a pro e-sports gamer i swear

so u both would be like hardcore sweating and would just be like acing everything and get #1 for each match LOL

he'd be so proud of u ❤️

but ofc since u were both hardcore gaming

and games..decorate for holidays

you two would be running around lobbies and just exploring

and then ur characters or whatever would end up under a mistletoe accidentally (or not..)

so wonu would just take it as a technicality and he'd give u the cutest kiss ever <333

woozi:

you'd be at the studio

he'd be making tracks or editing songs

or just composing maybe

who knows what he does in there??

so it's also rlly late and he's just jamming out w u

like u two would listen to samples together and he’d ask u for feedback

and you’d just do this for HOURS (not that either of u mind)

but you’d have to stop eventually..right?

jk u two would try to muster the energy to get up and go home but u two just end up falling asleep

one of u would probably wake up at like 4 am tho

wake up the other

and you’d both drowsily walk out

a green and red thing hanging off the ceiling would blur by in the corner of ur eye

and obviously you’d take the opportunity to fluster ur bf soo

u would lean down and give him a quick peck and he’d fully wake up and flush SO hard (argh hes so cute!)

dk:

you'd be at a karaoke place w ur best buds, 100%. no argument.

he'd be screaming at the top of his lungs cuz he's literally so drunk

like hitting all of those high notes and having his voice crack all in one sitting

he'd be pouring his heart out w all of these emotions but everyone else would be literally rofl

plus everyones a teensy bit drunk

it'd be like 2 am when some of the group has fallen asleep, 4 of the others have passed out, and u and dk would just be slaying it hard

tbh i think he'd think smth else hanging on the ceiling would be a mistletoe (like a light or smth)

and he'd just be kissing u sm and you'd be so confused

but eventually you’d notice the mistletoe and it’d all click

mingyu:

before we start w anything, i have a little psa: i LOVE MINGYU!!!!!

u probably already knew that but anyways..

urgh he'd be such a sweetheart the entire night

literally the best puppy in the world (im biased.)

he'd literally cook u the BEST MEAL OF YOUR LIFE

and then he'd give u like this whole spa thingie (at home)

like a whole bubble bath, massage, skincare, the whole package (mingyu is the whole package. dont try to change my mind)

he'd shut u up the moment u try to say that he isn't being taken care of w saying that this is ur night (my heart can't take this)

you two would watch SO many movies and just cuddle the whole time LOL

he'd end the night w taking u out onto ur balcony (if u don't have one, u do now.) and the mistletoe would be hanging above

and he'd just lean forward and kiss u into the night (bonus points cuz he kissed u at 12:00 am on christmas day <333)

god im whipped....

the8:

istfg for christmas he'd plan the most ELABORATE date night for the two of u (my heart)

like

first he'd take u shopping at ur nearest mall

then he'd pick out ur outfit for the night

then you'd put it on

then you'd go to this expensive af restaurant (he pays even tho u tell him not to so many times)

then he'd take you ice skating for an hour or smth while it's snowing <33

ur final destination would be a massage parlor cuz everyone needs some time to unwind all of their stress <3

ofc tho on the way out, you'd coincidentally walk under the mistletoe

he'd giggle at his tiny victory (someone get me a minghao pls)

and you'd kiss (obviously) <33

seungkwan:

i feel like he’d take u to some concert or a show tbh

and you would just be jamming out and screaming at the top of ur lungs until u can barely breathe

like that type of night

so u two would pull up

check in w ur tickets

maybe get food if its available

the concert would start and u both would be SO excited oml

like once they start theres no stopping ur screaming

no way

no how

y’all r top-notch fans any artist would be lucky to have u 😎

that’s irrelevant LOL anyways

so obviously the concert eventually ends (to ur dismay)

and u two head out

and since it’s the holiday season decor is up all around the venue

and he unsuspectingly drags u two under one

and ofc he doesn’t notice but u do

so when u kiss him on the cheek randomly he’s SO flustered 😭

and since ur in public he acts like he’s embarrassed but it’s obvious he loved it <3

vernon:

u would be chilling at home or smth working, reading, or whatever

then u decided that you were tired and wanted to go to bed

then you would put away whatever u had out

and go to ur shared bedroom to change and get ready for bed

like you’d brush ur teeth, wash ur face, maybe take a shower, all that jazz

then you’d fall asleep

vernon would join u later w a lil disappointment cuz he hung a mistletoe above ur bed but u didn't notice

so when u wake up, he’d be cuddled up against u, already awake and looking at u w the cutest smile

“huh? is there something wrong vern?” you’d be rlly confused but then he’d softly whisper, “look up baby,” and you’d realize

you’d be like “oh” but then you’d give vernon what he wants; ur love and kisses ✊😔

dino:

you'd be at the dance studio or smth prob (he's like a machine wtf)

like he'd be teaching u some choreography or you'd both be sweating ur asses off to some random song

like literally there for HOURS

until like 3 am or smth like that

and once u two would finally settle down and decide ur both out of juice for the night, y'all would head home

but of course the studio is decorated for christmas

so

basically

he'd 100% try to devise a plan into sneaking a mistletoe someplace you'd walk under but he forgot about it so he'd run away for a few minutes (saying he needed to use the bathroom but he'd just be hanging a mistletoe up above the door on ur way out)

so

ahahah

he'd (very subtly) drag u under there

and at 3:48 am, two lovers connected under the mistletoe..on christmas eve...*curtains close*

[volskayadottxt]

okay so like this is just my Train Of Thought but im not as shaken up by todays news as i thought id be. for a few reasons, i think:

im a different person than i was in 2019

i have a better understanding of how games are made

story mode is still in tact which is what i wanted

i have my phd to finish lol

as far as seasonal content goes im p happy w the game

i play the game more competitively now and ive noticed it changed my relationship w pve

it mostly just sucks to think abt all the contradictions that lead up to this. i think we all agree ow2 was announced way too early in a confusing and unclear way, and i blame abk corpos for that. but i also cant help but feel jeff kaplans vision was doomed from the start. in hindsight, talent trees for every new hero means 40+ new abilities every 4 months. that scope isnt possible without an army.

hero missions were also rly poorly defined from the start. it seems like they wanted to make 100s of handcrafted non-canon missions to grind out progression, which again, huge scope problem. even under the BEST conditions (which we all know isnt the case at blizzard--again abk corpos) that would be a pipe dream. thats just... a decade worth of work.

then kaplan takes off, and so does a lot of senior leadership w him. new team 4 leadership were given a shitty situation and had to pick up the pieces. if anything, im most upset abt all the stuff being vaulted, years of work gone bc of mismanagement on the directorial and executive level. as dumb as it sounds idk if we would have even had an ow2 with kaplan in the drivers seat.

i suppose there are lessons to be taken from this, but idk if the ppl who theyre most relevant for will take them. kaplans team tried to make titan not once but twice, and if the rumors ive heard are true its possible theyre trying a third time at a secret startup studio. maybe the best thing to do is to just let it go. koticks a ceo hes fucking clueless and should take a long walk off a short pier.

that being said: ill always be a little sad for what we couldve had, but im also excited for what we are getting and im a lot happier w current leadership on team 4. really excited abt the lore codex, shorts, new (peruvian) support, the tank who is probably mauga, dndwatch, hero mastery systems, etc etc. sad that stuff got overshadowed today.

supernatural s7e16 out with the old (w. jenny klein, bob singer)

goofy ass way to kill someone (i guess the red shoes reference?), but i'll take actual ballet dancers dancing in media any day :) and tchaikovsky's swan lake is one of my all time favorite pieces of classical music

did you know swan lake has a happy ending in some productions? this abt version has them yeeting themselves off a cliff to die together and reunite in heaven but some they kill off the baddie and everyone is together and happy. anyway i totally cried again watching that finale clip lol

moving on

the pristine unworn pointe shoes to the side of the gore made me laugh. so dumb

why won't they let them wear actual cold winter appropriate clothing?? they must have been freezing in their little light fall jackets.

SAM Yeah, well, every time I close my eyes, Lucifer is yelling into my head. It's like I let him in once, now I can't get rid of him. DEAN You know he's not actually... SAM Yeah. Yeah, no. I know. Uh, try telling that to the volume control inside my brain. DEAN Well, did you try the hand thing? SAM Yeah.

💔 but even i can't resist suggesting that maybe dean could help you with more pain

black vintage firebird yes please and thank you. there was a trans am in 5.13 the song remains the same too, wrote about a boy who had one in my high school lol

oh god the poor girl in the pointe shoes. laughing and cringing. i was thinking she's young but maybe she just looks really young, i started pointe at 11 (which was too early most likely). anyway thankfully they didn't have her visibly doing much of anything. whew

DEAN Getting the strong urge to Prince Siegfried myself into oblivion? Yes. SAM You really did see "Black Swan."

yes swan lake reference!! i finally watched black swan here not long ago, i'll watch anything with ballet but it was a little too scary for what i could tolerate in my headspace there for a good while.

SAM Geez! You okay there, Baryshnikov? DEAN Yeah. Yeah, I'm "pas de done."

(you know male ballet dancers generally don't wear pointe shoes, right) baryshnikov is my fave and i actually got to see him perform - sadly not classical ballet, but with the white oak dance project back in early 2000s.

this has other dances doing the same variation, but baryshnikov is first and this is one of my favorite things (i have this performance on vhs). it is perfect for his acting and obviously his technique and power is jaw dropping. the gasps and cheers from the audience with that first big jump, seriously💯

cursed kitchen object does not give me joy. me: why is sam so impatient, he keeps snapping at everyone. oh right, no sleep, satan-vision screaming

DEAN You know, I wonder how old porn kills you. SAM Pretty sure you don't want to know.

oh, sam. you can't power through sleep deprivation

JOYCE We have a chain of command here, George. You see a Winchester, you don't eat him. You tell me, and I eat him.

again with the awful photoshop job on dick. and i dunno what program he's supposed to be using there with an excel like sum button

sammy saving the day. wonder if he kept the sword

apparently this is the third episode with bad moon rising in it,

via wiki: also played in 1.22 Devil's Trap and 2.01 In My Time of Dying. this sadly did not making the streaming rights so it's some knockoff on netflix (on the radio during the semi crashing into the impala). i already figured it meant bad news this time around, doubly so.

i know a vague plot point for s8 i think but i don't know what happens with sam's head (i don't think, at least) our how we get to what i know from s8. but misery scale is tipping heavier as we approach the end of the season soo. i am so looking forward to the end of the leviathan plotline. i could not care less

it was nice seeing them in an environment with snow. like dirty gray winter weather kind of snow, not just the pretty stuff

[tfw-no-tennis]

lupin....part2 anime…is amazing

ep 1 - I love this already I love that the whole squad is here. why does this guy have weird superpowers. I love everything abt this

ep 2 - this was fucking WILD I feel like a lot happened in this short episode. they stole the jesus statue from rio?! bro

ep 3 - according to the lupin wiki ep 3 is about nazis and has hitler in it but I have no memory of this at all so I’m pretty sure crunchyroll doesn’t have this ep up LMAOOOOOOOO. EDIT: they DO have the ep up but its after ep 26. so yeah we ended up seeing it lol. it was wild, lupin and zeni both did like...nazi salutes or st which was UHHH a lot lmao. the hang-gliding part was classic wacky hijinks. the quality is noticeably worse than the preceding episodes since this ep is technically from the very beginning of the series - I hadnt really noticed the increase in quality yet here’s proof

ep 4 - I love how much casual supernatural shit is in these??? nessie is real and here. anyways back to lupin hijinks- lmao

ep 5 - I love how often (in this series and in the movies) fujiko just shows up w/some random old guy billionaire. and they always know her as fujiko, like, does she not have a reputation???? anyways the guys accent was awful vbkjadfjkasnbdfkjnl also the whole golden car thing was SO extra and wack I fucking love it

ep 6 - how do they think of these plots. the trained money retrieving dolphin is my favorite lupin character. goemons swimwear is fantastic 

ep 7 - this ep was WILD again w/the casual supernatural BS with lupin being POSSESSED? or something? ok so goemon and jigen being superstitious and not getting involved was hilarious. lupin and fujiko are so delightful when they work together. I was confused bc I really was expecting the whole possession thing to be a ploy by lupin and fujiko to stick it to the other 2 for not helping and being superstitious but nope apparently lupin really did get possessed? hilarious. 10/10

ep 8 - lbr lupin is a horse boy theres a lot of horse stuff in lupin. anything on a train is a lot of fun. wacky shit 

ep 9 - oh this was a lot of fun. I love that the old guy was duping them and it wasn’t revealed until a lot later. and of course fujiko was involved bc when there’s a rich old guy, fujiko can be reliably found trying her best to steal his money

ep 10 - this episode was fucking hilarious. the villain guy has my favorite dub voice so far lmao. the belt bomb was wacky fun. the boys dressed as zeni was HILARIOUS I love them all. this is the ep w/the ‘WHO WANTS CHICKEN NUGGETS???’ line iirc which is just amazing, possibly the best dub line.

ep 11 - lupin is so dumb I love him. the casino scenes were fucking hilarious, especially goemon LMAOOO ‘transcend...’ ‘I have no choice, I must kill myself’ LMAO and when they lose all their stuff and leave the casino in their underwear...we stan a dumbass polycule

ep 12 - oh this was fun. I love zeni. and also I love the lupin polycule (aka fujiko’s malewives). I loved that the end was that the fancy wine was gross af lmaoooo

ep 13 - fucking hilarious turn of events leads to lupin chasing zenigata around, 10/10. why is there so much Complete Bullshit Technology involving teeth (i’m looking at you, that one movie where lupin had that pill in a fake tooth or w/e? wtf was that). 

ep 14 - once again some supernatural BS w/weird green zombies. some part II eps are SUPER weird, others are particularly batshit/confusing - this was both. the swarm of evil hummingbirds was Sure Something. 

ep 15 - maybe the best title so far -  ‘the Case of the Risible Dirigible.’ It cracks me up that these eps have like 4 different titles each. ruth was very disappointed that he was actually called sherlock holmes and not herlock sholmes. which, same. I love how clever the lupin gang was in this, I love when they do bullshit disguises, especially when they all get roped in, not just lupin. 

ep 16 - THIS was one of those completely batshit eps that had ruth and I saying ‘WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON???’ many times. the entire premise is so fucking weird and I wasn’t even gonna be shocked if they played it str8 that lupin was werewolf-ing into a murderer at midnight lmao. I love how this played out tho, especially the scene where lupin is like ‘I guess you guys have to kill me’ and goemon and jigen are like ‘ok fine’ but then lupin defends himself instinctually and jigen says ‘kill your own damn self’ hbvhajkuhdfsahbsakdfk I love him I love them. 

ep 17 - I like how a lot of other IIIrd’s show up lmao. the scene where they’re all gonna be burned at the stake and fujiko is like NVM DONT KILL ME and the boys are like BOOOO U COWARDDD was hilarious lmao. 

ep 18 - this was another ‘WHAT THE FUUUUCK IS HAPPENING’ ep, maybe the Most one so far. bc WHAT THE FUCK LMAO that was fucking trippy. the nudist colony didn’t feature as heavily as I would’ve assumed lmao. even the one-off side characters were weird as fuck, what was up w/that. The ending where the boys sing happy birthday to fujiko was REALLY cute. 

ep 19 - wacky episode. the villain jotaro (LMAO) was especially weird. goemon failing to cut stuff is one of my favorite things. 

ep 20 - when I saw that there was an ep called ‘hell toupee’ I was like oh lmao that sounds hilarious can’t wait. little did I know this would be by far the most serious episode so far LMAO. I certaintly didn’t expect pseudo-nazis. I liked this one a lot, part II truly has the RANGE to do hilarious, weird bullshit, but also heartfelt serious stuff. lupin and fujiko were so so good, and so were jigen and goemon lmao the convo where goemon says ‘are we too career oriented?’ cracked me up. they’re all dating tyvm 

ep 21 - goemon episode!!! I love him sm. I love that this was like a more PG version of goemon’s bloodspray, where goemon must face a foe and fujiko is like ‘lol bye’ and jigen and lupin stay to watch/cheer their man on. the conclusion where goemon uses his sword to strike the dude w/lightening was fucking epic 

ep 22 - this is the episode that answers the age old question “does daisuke jigen is gay?” the answer is yes, that man is full limp wristed. it was so funny that jigen showed literally -100% interest in the women and was mostly concerned about his husband getting roped into a weird cult. and then he left to hang out w/his bf, and jigen and goemon were really cute and fun this ep. also lupin and zenigata hanging out was great lmaoooo

ep 23 - this one was fuckin weird. basically nothing happened in the first half of the ep LMAOOOO. lupin just got horny and jumped out a window. what the FUCK was up w/the tech this ep, w/the weird chess playing robot that never got explained, and the weird hologram fujiko that also never got explained??? hello?? isn’t this set in the 70s???? okay then! I can’t believe there’s continuity, they actually referenced the Egypt episode from earlier in the show. I'm impressed!

ep 24 - this ep had some fucking FANTASTIC quotes lmaoooo ‘that’s grandpas suppository holder!’ ‘goemon ishikawa is in the house’ LMAOO goemon was iconic this ep. the ending was cute. that rat guy made some WEIRD fuckin noises. zenigata was str8 up MANIC this ep lmaooooo

ep 25 -  so many wacky hijinks! I love how the lads spent half this ep running around in various states of undress, panicking. The balloon at the end gave me team rocket vibes lol. I always love when goemons weird traditional underwear makes an appearance 

ep 26 -  in this episode, jigen catches a bout of heterosexuality. As Ruth says - ‘part 2 dub jigen is bi. Other Jigens are gay.’ It’s true tbh after this ep I feel like jigen is 95% gay 5% str8. Anyways jigen was smooth as hell in this ep...also this was way more serious/sad than I anticipated. The part when jigen hesitated before shooting the car’s tire out, knowing that he wouldn’t miss...augh. That was a bittersweet victory. Also wow they all str8 up died oof. Also wtf happened w/fujiko being held captive, that went entirely unresolved. Also jigen and lupin fighting each other and thinking the other was the bad guy disguised? Spicy. Then realizing and confirming their identities w/gay coin shenanigans? Even better. Aaaaalso lupin and goemon hanging out this ep was sooo delightful...they’re so cute. Also fujiko going all the way to japan to get Japanese food for goemon?! SO cute, I love this polycule sm. Great ep. 

ep 27 -  lupin gets a kid against his will lmao. a lot of this ep was just lupin + jigen gay fatherhood adventures which was fun. the part where they rob a bank like classic robbers/thieves was novel lol. the part towards the end when things get all trippy briefly was unexpected and wild. also NEW OPENING HOLY SHIT i fucking ADORE the new op, it's so artsy and FUN in the exact way that I love, so much cool dynamic movement and action, amazing colors, fun transitions...plus this version of the song is GREAT. i love it sooo so much

ep 28 - oh man this was fun. I love when things get really law-focused, and we get occasional eps like this where we see a lot of it from the law enforcement perspective. I love all the trickery and melon was awesome and cool, epic girlboss right there. 

ep 29 - have I mentioned yet how much I love all the ridiculous pun titles for the dubbed eps? bc I love them. anyways, I have been waiting SO LONG to see the context for the clip of lupin and jigen floating around w/weird sound fx vbajkdshjfbakhshf and it’s FINALLY HERE im so glad. also tbh context doesn’t help much bc they just start talking about how lupin and jigen can levitate now and never really show us any backstory on this LMAO I wouldn’t have it any other way. I liked this ep, the trickery was top notch. I like how we as the audience were pretty easily able to clock the fake lupin and jigen in that one scene where they torture the guy even tho it wasn’t previously revealed bc the fact that they’re torturing some guy is pretty out of character for them. and also all the floating stuff was fucking hysterical

ep 30 - oh man I love any instance where lupin and zenigata are forced to team up, it’s so much fun. this was great, even though the entire premise was barely believable in the first place and just kept getting more absurd

ep 31 - this ep wins the award for the most confusing and batshit episode so far, by a large margin! we spent most of this ep saying WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON??? and that feeling didn’t really lessen as the ep continued. I feel like the pacing was completely insane, and there was so little setup that I had zero idea what ANY of the characters motivations were the entire time...

ep 32 - this ep was GREAT oh my god. I love a good ole presumed-dead trope and I ESPECIALLY love when the death is played mostly for laughs lol. everyone’s reactions to lupin dying were hilarious, yet also sad, but still hilarious? it was a perfectly balanced line, basically. like, the part towards the beginning when jigen tells lupin not to even joke about dying made me sad, and same w/the part when jigen says that the doctor has to try to fix lupin...and then it was SO fucking funny when jigen and goemon just run out of the room and jigen starts shooting random streetlights and goemon starts cutting down trees, both while crying, and then the camera pans out to show a bunch of random people watching in confusion vbkjadbhfkhsnbdfhk that was peak comedy. same w/zenigata slapping cuffs on that officer and running out of the room while firing his gun and making Zenigata Noises(tm). like, it was :( to see them all reacting so strongly, but we all know lupin isn’t really dead, so that just helped to make it hilarious. also the part where lupin is underwater and dumps those pills in his mouth? complete bullshit hvahbjsdkfbks lmao. 

ep 33 - this was a fun ep! the cold open was great. I love when there’s emphasis on the scheming and sneaking around aspect of the thieving. I love how fujiko is usually the one to win big in the end...most of the time. the japanese guy having a brooklyn accent was hilarious. 

ep 34 - this ep was AMAZING lmao oh my god. I automatically love any ep that has weird supernatural BS w/little fanfare, like the zombies ep and the one w/the egyptian spirit possessing lupin. this was amazing, vampire lupin was a delight, I love the dumb way he talked and how he kept doing the ‘nyaaaah!!! }:)’ thing. the ‘jesus christ’s secret evil vampire twin sister’ plot twist was fucking WILD I literally am still reeling hbvjadksfksl. the part where fujiko was disguised as a random elvis impersonator was equally wild and had me reeling too, this ep was just...A Lot (but in the best of ways). I love the return of jigen and goemon being superstitious. also it was really cute when they were like ‘no, we have the help lupin, he’s our friend!’ awww they all love each other <3 unlike the ep where he got possessed, lupin actually WAS faking being a vampire, and clearly having a great time doing so. they seemed to imply that she actually WAS a vampire tho, which is wild. again, I adore how this show barely touches on these weird supernatural occurrences, and just kinda trucks on w/the plot lmao. anyways I loved this ep 10/10

ep 35 - I feel like every ep of this show starts out w/me and ruth going ‘what the fuck is happening!??!’ and this is no exception. this ep was very wack lmao, I feel like fujiko was more of an enemy here than usual, the whole ‘dress up as gorillas’ thing was wild, like...2 of the gorillas were dudes in suits but there was one actual gorilla in the mix?? for some reason?? what...

ep 36 - I love when the english dub npcs have the weirdest fucking accents lmao like the flashback of that japanese couple and they just sound like white bread american greek life college kids hvhbjkhsdbfksn. anyways I thought it was cute that lupin did this whole job for goemon even tho he clearly wasn’t that into it but he loves goemon so he’ll do it anyways aww. poor jigen didn’t have a good time. the ninjas were fun

ep 37 - lupin and jigen are so married I love them. also I loved goemon and fujiko doing a job together, they’re so cute. and I really liked when the polycule came together at the end and all teamed up together aww. it was wild that they accidentally robbed a bank lmaoooo.

ep 38 - this was wild lmao, zeni was so good...hes such a good dad awww when it seemed lupin died and he swam over like ‘doesn’t anyone else here care about him!?’ DAD....also towards the end I was thinking ‘this is an unusual lupin ep, they haven’t even alluded to stealing anything yet’ and then like 2 seconds later it’s revealed that the whole thing is a ploy for them to steal something, which figures lol. the polycule was cute af at the end

ep 39 - this episode was fucking weird lmao. but also I feel like that’s true for every episode. every good anime needs a chicken episode. lupin and jigen in disguise at the beginning was cute. 

ep 40 - this episode had such an intense back and forth between the gang and zenigata tbh? zeni was on top of his game for sure, but the squad still managed to come out on top. that's the power of the polycule baby. I liked that the stakes were so high/intense in this, and that the whole episode was basically the heist. a lot of eps have a bunch of weird goofy stuff at the beginning before the actual thieving starts but this one didn't. also some great polycule content 10/10

ep 41 - THE GENDER EPISODDEEEEE as ruth calls it. I love this one lmao. Its not really up to the modern standard of progressiveness but it also wasn't as bad as I thought it would be tbh. some really funny scenarios, and I loved lupin and fujikos dynamic lmao. It was so fun seeing lupin playing fujiko’s game. also lupin is Big Gender tbh, especially in this ep. I enjoyed the references to ‘some like it hot’ too lmao. 

someday we will watch more and ill continue this. til next time!

[atypical-artisan]

Punch out but make it pride 2!!!!

Even more gender and sexuality hcs for the lads, including Mr Dream, and pizza pasta. I've talked abt some of them already but I'll do it again!!

Gabby Jay:

As mentioned in my aroaspec post, Gabby is grey aroace. He'd never been attracted to ANYONE until he met Doc which, unsurprisingly, shook him up a bit. Finding the term 'grey' and understanding his aro/asexuality was immensely helpful for understanding himself and becoming more happy in life.

Realizing he was trans also came late in his life- roughly his mid 30s after Joe came out to him and explained what being trans was. Gabby had a bit of a mental crash afterwards, re-assesing his entire life and all the discomfort he'd been feeling since he could remember. But now he feels very comfortable with himself and happy in his body.

Piston Hurricane:

Gay, gay, homosexual, gay. Sure, he didn't know it when he was younger, but this man is absolutely gay. For years he thought he was bi, but after realizing that every 'chick' he'd ever dated ended up coming out as a trans man during or after their relationship, as well as many guy's gay awakenings, he came to the realization that he was very much a magnet for gay guys (Knowing or not). He kinda likes it though because it's a funny anecdote.

Cis, plain and simple. But he is way more knowledgeable about trans people, particularly trans men, because he's close to so many of them. He's an excellent ally!

Bob Charlie:

Attracted to anyone, but has a slight preference for men. He's honestly too loosey goosey to attach himself to a label, but if asked he normally says "Eh I'm bi... or pan... idk I like people." and shrugs. He likes the term queer quite a bit, though.

Tried being trans, def had fun, but landed on being a dude. Turns out he mostly just likes skirts n dresses lol.

Dragon Chan:

Realizing he was bi came through his exposure to the internet, but he never got any relationship experience until he was 22. For the longest time he felt like his attraction was 'fake' due to being too shy and preoccupied to consider dating. But he's slowly improving his confidence and healing that part of himself with Heike.

He's cis, but he's very attentive towards gender stuff and very curious about other's own experiences with gender because it fascinates him.

Masked Muscle:

God this man does not give a shit about the gender of the people he's with. He doesn't really care about anything except how hot someone is and how compatible they are lmao. With that being said, he's actually quite fond of the pan community (Even if he's run into some serious assholes) and enjoys the solidarity he has with other m-spec labels! Technically he fits other labels too but he prefers the look of the pan flag and so calls himself that.

He's cis through and through, doesn't really care about trans people's genders, even if he doesn't understand half the stuff he comes across online he figures it's just not his business. Even for people he knows personally he doesn't delve too deep into gender cause he simply doesn't see the point in it, though he does respect them, obviously. Heike tried to explain what being multigender was to him once and it completely flew over his head, absolutely no hope for this man fr (Positive)

Snes Aran Ryan:

Bi, with a very strong preference for men he really doesn't like to admit to himself. He spent most of his life only being with women and avoiding his feelings for men, until he almost lost to Hurricane because he found him so hot. It was hard, but also not cause he very quickly found a guy to crush on. He's still very out of the loop when it comes to the community and gets terms mixed up all the time.

Cis and pretty dumb about trans stuff. He straight up didn't understand that nonbinary wasn't a 'new gender' until Heike sat him down and explained it to him for an hour. It still confuses him a lot but he does his best adhering to proper pronouns and respecting people.

Heike Kagero:

gay, nonbinary

Heike is gay in the sense they're only attracted to men or nb men. Gay is just a term of convenience for him, really, but it works and it feels right so he's in no rush to change it.

As I mentioned in my first hc post about them, they struggle to find a perfect label but mostly sticks to nonbinary and bishonen to describe themself. He realized he wasn't 'quite' a boy from a very young age and made it clear to his parents that'd he'd be more than expected. They supported their child and have been very resolute in their support for their sexuality and gender.

Mad Clown:

Labels? The fuck are those? This bitches gender AND sexuality are noting but WACKY!!!

For real though, Clown just doesn't attach himself to labels that much- aside from very esoteric ones that are mostly silly and fun, he doesn't use them for his gender or sexuality. However, he does prefer women and generally more feminine partners.

Narcis Prince:

As I've said before in my first hc post about him and the aroace hc list, Narcis really can't decide on his orientation. Though he knows he's attracted to men he's not sure if he's interested in women romantically and sexually or just likes the way women look. He's also growing to believe he's demi or greyromantic because he has very little interest in romance and hardly distinguishes it from friendship.

He's very confident in the fact that he's a man and also very confident that his body is perfect just as it is. Narcis has Klinefelter (xxy) syndrome and gynecomastia as a result. His parents were horrified to discover he had it and heavily pressured him to get surgery to 'fix' his body, but it only led to him thinking they were idiots. He wears a shirt in the ring mostly for practical reasons because of it, but otherwise doesn't care how other's see his body because what matters is that he likes it.

Hoy Quarlow:

Hoy is old and doesn't get the desire for newfangled terminology. He doesn't mind people using it and respects other's labels but he finds it too cumbersome to label himself. He sees himself as nothing more than a free spirit, flowing from relationship to relationship like a breeze.

Like his sexuality, Hoy doesn't have much use for labeling his gender. When he was younger, he only thought of himself as a man. Nowadays, interaction with people like Heike and general curiosity made him, and his twin sister, realize their feelings on gender are no longer as concrete as they once thought. These days they'll steal each others clothes and go out as the other for a bit of relief from their 'expected' gender, a la a many of shakespeare's comedy plays.

Rick Bruiser:

Cis and straight (Mostly)

What else can I say, this guy is p simple. He's got no (Strong) attraction to men. (Tho he'll admit that Hurricane and a few of the others are p easy on the eyes if you get enough drinks into him.)

As for his gender- any form of non conformity was beaten out of him and Nick from a young age. He hates anything feminine and always needs to be one of the most masculine guys in the room. (Deep down he does deeply enjoy jewelry but doesn't go past rearing silver rings in his ears. Even gold is too gay for him.)

Nick Bruiser:

cis and gay but homophobic

God this man is so gay it's painful- he's had a crush on literally every guy in the wvba and especially Joe (Though that particular obsession is extremely unhealthy). However, because of his upbringing, he's deeply homophobic and disgusted by himself, forcing himself to date women even though he doesn't even care for them and isn't attracted to them at all. His life would be so much easier if he accepted he was gay, but that's not happening any time soon.

As with Nick, any gender non conforming traits were beaten out of him young. As an adult he deeply overcompensates for being gay by being hyper masculine and is extremely fragile about his masculinity.

Peter Punch/Birdie:

Peter honestly can't pick a label. He's bi, he's pan, he's gay- he can describe himself in so many ways and going down a rabbithole of cool labels and awesome flags only left him more confused and constantly stressing if he was using the 'right' ones. Nowadays He just shrugs and says he isn't straight. That's good enough for him and it'll be good enough for everyone else.

As with his sexuality, his gender is extremely hard to pinpoint. Even though he experiences dysphoria, it's very touch and go and his feelings on gender and presentation are so fluid and flexible that words are hard for him to find to describe himself. Even pronouns are pretty hard to settle on!

Mr. Dream:

Again, as mentioned in my aroace post, Dream is, well, Aroace!! It took him years to realize and process but nowadays he's very comfortable with his orientation and very close to the aroace community.

Though he is cis, he's also intersex, which, for him, is a very important part of the lgbt community. He found out VERY suddenly in his late 20s when, during what he and his doctors thought was appendicitis, they found he actually had Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome (PMDS) and fibrosis on his ovaries. Everything was removed and they later found out he has 45,X/46,XY mosaicism as well. All of this left him questioning not only his gender but much of his life beforehand. Though he's okay now, he advocates heavily for the intersex community and overall better knowledge and acceptance of them.

Pizza Pasta:

Refuses to label himself. He's interested in hot people, that's all you have to know. (Though he does find the bi flag very pretty and when pushed, uses that term exclusively)

Cis and doesn't give a shit about what other's do with their bodies. He thinks the whole debate about trans people is ridiculous and that people should be left to do what they want.

[fangtastic-vampyra]

SRA DREAM/RANT/The Cursed Monthly Gift/Contagion

Being miserable. From. My family. Like I keep dreaming I am walking around naked lol. Maybe cause the blankets are heavy? Irl? Or just feeling way too open and such, online, yet some say vulnerable is strong. But anyway, once I found some clothes um, I was asking if my cous could be my roommate, and they say we get "another patient" as a roommate, it was like a sort of um, HUD thing? Well. I went off. Said I am leaving there, and everything, and going to take over my mom's house. WHICH was like a pt3 from a dream of a Hurricane happening in LA again, and I kept asking people to secure my stuff, I really am not rich enough to buy the 3RD round of clothing and tech and everything. (I also dreamed I was THE JOKER in a movie, starring me.. and had like two boyfriends and two girlfriends lol)

Um, cont with this recent one from a few hours ago... Telling them (my family) abt me with the suicidal ideation within it, dr knows, its just a side effect of being trans, and not as tall as i think i "really am". Like. Begging them to bring me back across the lake and stuff. As we would say. Ugh. {Thirty minute drive.}

Before I passed out, a voice told me, that I was pretty much (my balcony oversees the lot, obv, but like REALLY, does, our location) abandoned here, she/mum doesn't care if i have food/money/etc, and with the schizophrenia (being like jimunji) as it's, V2K DEW EMF SPRITE AI and Handlers, Im often spinning/out of it/dazed feeling... Like they know you have mental probs but expect you to "act" like you don't? How could you even comprehend that?

So I found some guy that cared, he looked me up all over internet from a FB dating profile. Guise, be careful what you put out there. Me? I figure I'm just..dying from Covid anyway..and The Contagion...

Feel grouchy, breasts are feeling uh tenderness or wahtever, prob starting period, but I really dont think thats what it is "spotting".

...my fucking dumb ass. had sex with this guy but like WHY does woman have to be the one "put a condom on please" like Im not doing okay... adjusting to this whole "society as a targeted individual with people who come to the house with rx psychiatric meds"--Pushin going to a DR with me. it could be side effects of T/Estrogen.

This guy is like a handler and that. Dont you know in 9 months. Dont you know child support and that. Idk I was looking at TV and it said abort. Idk probably lil antichrist in there.

I dont even want to be here, alright?

But as far as no one ever loving me, as some mistake of God, a baby would love me. Forever.

Fucking dudes. Weirdos.

Im weird. No. I realize. I am perfectly naturally fucked up from this HORSE SHIT. I have to now take responsibility as some kind of uh. Fuck up. Fubar. I dunno. We shall see. Stupid woman body. Cant even really stop itself from being pregnant. Its just..the dumbest shit. Yeah pills? I pass out. Surgery? Demons. Lots of them. Uhhhhh idk. Kinda hung up on a kid loving me. FECKING LIL RETARDED ASS CHICKENS KNOW HOW TO GET RID OF UNWANTED PREGGERS. (They can get rid of the sperm ugh) HUMANS? NO. This is so fucked up. And politicians and all like want us to have babies in our tummies. Where are they when this baby is hungry and sick? Stealing my Fucking money, calling me an undesirable, and whathaveyou. Prolly, you know, tilling him/her to the grave,

I'm actually really interested in hearing more soooo Flying, Psychic and Ground types! - C

AAAAAAA i feel nervy sometimes abt gushing abt Maxwell in fear of being annoying but uh...i gotta get over that bc thats what the blog is abt!!!!

Flying - What's something your F/O does that makes your heart soar? Something you do that makes their stomach fluttery?

To be fair, anything he does makes me like a school girl because I Love Him. But his words!!! He always says dumb cheesy stuff but in a Hot way. He calls me Lamb and Angel and i cry tears of joy every time. AND HIS VOICE!! Ahhhh omg. The best way I can explain it is like Claude Frollo from Hunchback of Notre Dame mixed with Alan Rickman.

I bring out his softer side, and I think he secretly enjoys it and makes him smile. I put a flower crown on him once and refused to take it off the rest of the day. I make sure he stops and appreciates the world a bit <3.

Psychic - Look into your crystal ball and tell us what you think your future with your F/O looks like? Do you want to live together? Get married? Have the two of you ever talked about it?

I would LOVE to live with Maxwell <3. Thinking abt rainy nights in the chappel with him, all cuddled up. He lives inside his Church, but it's so beautiful I dont even mind. He has a pretty expansive private living space you can easily forget about the Holier areas. On the topic of marriage, definitely. He gave me a promise ring already!!! It's so pretty. Its a hug ring with a small, clear stone on the bottom and an opalescent white stone on top!!! It makes me so happy just to look at it.

Ground - What about your F/O grounds you when you're not feeling well? Do you help ground them?

Once again, Maxwell has a way with words. I suppose that makes sense given his job. Making people feel better is kind of what his whole job as a priest is lol. His scent too!! I managed to find a mixture of essential oils that smells like him, and it is magical. I highly encourage finding something that matches your f/o's scent. It does WONDERS.

It is rare that Maxwell is upset. He doesn't let much bother him or change his mood. But, when he is, food is the best way to soothe him. Maxwell can be a bit of a foodie sometimes!! I cannot cook very well, but it doesn't matter what I make, he's happy.

I have no clue what the invincibles is abt infodump plz

uhhh maybe mild first ep spoilers but i’ll avoid them

mild background first. invincible is a comic series that was made by the same guy who made the walking dead comics. i don’t know too much abt either comic, but i did watch the invincible show and loved it!!!

essentially mc is mark grayson who’s like. 18 & in high school. he’s half viltrumite via his father and half human. his father is a superhero superman-esk character and mark wants to be just like him when his powers kick in!!!! unfortunately. end of first ep spoilers. omni-man, mark’s dad, is Evil! Superman archetype and is super murdery for (at the time) unknown reasons. (the evil! superman thing is more in power than anything else. like it’s not the same scenario that superman was in or anything they’re just both very powerful). anyways he wants to be a superhero like his dad and it’s cute. and so he does! and he gets the name invincible out of it! for the rest of the show he’s figuring out how to be a superhero + balance his personal life and there’s some nice side plot stuff for the rest of the characters as well as (spoilers) an investigation into the super murder-y stuff omni-man did

the show is super very gory and i wouldn’t suggest it if ur sensitive to gore. like at all. for most of the first ep it’s not a problem but from then on out it’s pretty bad relatively consistently. the show’s dark i guess? not in the boys (tv show) kind of way where u can expect all sorts of awful stuff at any moment, but rather in an r rated superhero movie way. with more blood. and better writing. really the worst stuff is gore and nothing else.

but i’ve really enjoyed the show!!!!! more than i typically do for dark superhero shows where i either don’t enjoy them or i find them alright. the show keeps that superhero-y vibe about it even with all the gore!!! it’s not really “superheroes are bad actually” or anything like that, but rather. bad things happen. and it’s still cute a lot of the time!!! the mc is a teenager and it shows!!

tldr: mark grayson is a superhero learning how to be a superhero + its gory but it’s still very much a show abt a superhero

𝗔𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀

attention span is not long. may ditch old ideas, if they get bored, or find something more interesting. HAS to win an argument. may think being the louder one during an argument is the way to win lmao. talks in a dynamic way. argumentive. may make a good public speaker. may text too fast, and mess up on a few words. communication style is aggressive(always has to be right, loud, might scapegoat, etc). humor may be childish(fart jokes, butt jokes, burp jokes, just dumb shit in general lol), or humor that involves getting injured(hitting your head on something, tripping, etc). slapstick humor

𝗧𝗮𝘂𝗿𝘂𝘀

great attention span, but may be a slow learner or talker. talks with stability/most likely doesn’t stutter. doesn’t mind staying on the same topic/not changing the subject. like aries, in an argument they will rarely admit they were wrong, hard-headed. arguing with these ppl are the worst, since they don’t allow others to have opinions which is annoying asf(my sister has this lmao, and i have a taurus mars, so you could imagine💀). your mind rarely changes, once made up. not the most open minded. talks with practicality. may type slow tbh lmao, and dry. may also take a century to reply. communication style may be passive aggressive(may not like being straightforward, “i didn’t think you’d pass this class, but good job”, etc) humor may be well written skits, or roasts.

𝗚𝗲𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗶

attention span is fleeting. curious about numerous of things. may stutter thanks to gemini jittery energy. rarely turns down a debate, might even lie in a disagreement to win😃. first to speak if it’s too quiet for too long. type of person to have random knowledge or may know fun facts. talks with wit. types fast, replies fast, just very active on social media. meme user. sends messages in short patches instead of just one big paragraph. communication style is passive aggressive(may mumble under breath, etc). humor may be random. may love puns.

𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿

attention span is good, esp if it’s topics they feel with. may be bias in an argument between other ppl😬. may want to “hug” it out lmao. may like to talk abt emotional topics. talks with care. probably uses emojis a lot. writes paragraphs/in long sentences. communication style varies tbh😭. i’m just gonna do passive-aggressive(backhanded compliments, talks behind your back instead of confronting you) or assertive(expressing your wants and needs, while considering others feelings). inside jokes are your thing, goofy asf with ppl you’re comfortable with. dry humor

𝗟𝗲𝗼

attention span may be short lived. may only talk abt themselves which can be annoying💀. believe it or not, they may take a calm/chill approach in an argument. overdramatic in their speech. talks with confidence. keeps the conversation interesting/not dry. initiator in group chats. usually replies fast. communication style is assertive(uses “i”, knows their worth, etc). playful name calling is their type of humor.

𝗩𝗶𝗿𝗴𝗼

attention span may not be that good tbh(like their opposite sign, they daydream off into the distance). talks with practicality. make sure to fact check, when arguing with these ppl, or they may verbally violate you. very nit picky ppl, and may be big complainers. may abbreviate a lot of words lmao. another dry texting placement, and rarely uses emojis. communication style is passive aggressive(throws shade lmao, may like to just go with the flow, etc). may make fun of yourself to get laughs. might like humor that criticizes/makes fun of things/ppl in general. their humor has some truth to it😓.

𝗟𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮

attention span is usually good. easy going in speech. talks with equality. can also be charismatic. may ppl please. in arguments, they can try to compromise, and fix everything, even when it’s unfixable. dislikes conflict, and may need to learn to embrace them. may dislike ppl that curse a lot, or are loud. the way you text may be unclear to some. also texting isn’t direct, and may use things like “k” or “nice”. communication style is passive(lacks eye contact, doesn’t want any conflict even though they feel some type of way, etc). another placement that likes well written jokes, and may have a strong dislike for dark/inappropriate humor lol.

𝗦𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗽𝗶𝗼

attention span is attentive. you’re not easy to read, and it can take time to truly know you. you may over analyze and get suspicious over the dumbest things. observant, and might be into psychology. in arguments, doesn’t tolerate dumb shit. can be a bit of a ghost when it comes to texting. tries to get in your business and asks random shit. might not text too much info, since they don’t want ppl to screenshot the chat lmao. assertive is your communication style(considers others feelings, uses “i”, etc) or aggressive(yells, tries to intimidate you, etc). humor may be dark, offensive, and/or taboo/inappropriate. sexual jokes.

𝗦𝗮𝗴𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘂𝘀

attention span is actually good, if they’re interested, if not then it’s non existent. either rlly open or rlly closed minded. you may mistake being blunt for being honest or some ppl may mistake your realness for being rude. talks with rowdiness. in arguments, may be hostile. uses “:), </3” instead of “😃💔” in text. but then again, may use actual emojis a bit. communication style is aggressive(loud, doesn’t consider others feelings, etc). humor may be mocking accents, sarcasm, and/or satire.

𝗖𝗮𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗻

attention span is short, if what you’re talking abt isn’t important to us. fluent in atleast 2 languages, which are sarcasm, and facts. we don’t have time or patience for ignorance. we may come off as standoffish, when in reality we just stick to ourselves or we’re just too honest. talks with common sense. talking is soothing, atleast i’ve been told. i feel like we use facts in an argument more than emotions, but me personally i try to include both(this is my placement :)). probably doesn’t use caps in text. may have a lot of ppl on delivered. reply game varies based on person, only replies fast to important ppl. communication style is most likely assertive(has a backbone, stands up for themselves without being loud, etc). humor is satire, dark/offensive, and/or sarcastic. if you have tiktok, you definitely know abt satire humor LMAO.

𝗔𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘂𝘀

attention span is only good if they care. says random things. takes forever to reply. talks with detachment. observant. in arguments, probably doesn’t think of others feelings, and just says whatever. may be harsh in arguing. another placement that probably uses this “<3, :), etc” instead of “❤️😃”. may ghost your messages. communication style is passive aggressive(talks shit behind your back, may not care to confront others, etc). surreal humor, humor is eccentric lol. may like adult animated shows

𝗣𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗲𝘀

attention span isn’t good, since they daydream a lot. might say personal stuff in accident. relatable. great listeners. talks with warm heartedness. cool in arguments, and will stand up for what they feel is right if necessary. another placement that may use emojis a lot. texting may be emotional. shitty grammar. communication style is passive(goes with the flow, bad eye contact/body language, hates drama, etc). another placement that makes jokes abt sex. may joke abt drugs(other ppl doing it or themselves, or ppl acting like their on drugs lmao)

please keep in mind that other things will affect certain traits, like your moon sign. don’t plagiarize, and have a good day🤍
