Wanted to share this clip normalboydex posted from Chappell Roan’s Raleigh concert—remembering your favorite artists are more than just entertainers and get overwhelmed too is so important.

I love the artistry Chappell puts into her costumes and shows and how high energy she is, but I dearly hope people give her some room and let her breathe too 🩷🫶

This specific dialogue interests me because it feels like the closest thing we get to a direct correlation between the True Ending and Loop giving up. I mean yea obviously the True Ending is literally the "TRUE ENDING" of SASASAP there was even a whole dialogue change to twohats in the latest update to super canonize it for the people who didn't get it. But the way this is phrased (as the direct progression of "something terrible" into "i'm here") makes me think that Loop waking up in that meadow again directly led into them making their second wish.

hey this isn’t aimed at anyone in particular but I’m saying it for the record here: if I tell you no, please stop messaging me about fundraisers and mutual aid.

I get enough messages that it’s impossible for me to keep up without devoting at least half an hour each day, when I’m not even on tumblr that long most days. Me having a boundary about this isn’t a moral failing, it’s a lifeboat for me on my own blog.

In my personal life I’m already advocating and donating literally as much as I can spare. This is not me not caring, it’s just me not willing to interact with that on the one place I go online to not interact with irl news and world events for the most part.

I cannot be upset all the time. I cannot be upset everywhere. I cannot use all my emotional and mental energy fielding my own upset from ongoing events. My options are to hold boundaries about this or stop coming online at all.

I’m all for sharing information and signal boosting to reasonable extents, but the scale of it this year is so large and so enduring that it is literally not possible to for me to participate on every account I have. I’ve previously shared links to Gaza eSIM donations and a major hub of verified Go Fund Mes here and elsewhere online. We, the online humans, know how to look those things up ourselves by now. There are many, many people choosing to do advocacy work, and right now, I can’t be one of them.

If you’re extremely upset when I tell you I can’t share/donate right now about a Gaza family or personal fundraiser you ask me to share here, just unfollow and block me. That’s what those buttons are for. Protect your own emotions and energy and get me off your feed instead of staying upset and continuing to engage with online people or content that upsets you.

Please don’t send repeated angry messages based on manufactured purity politics and moral outrage into my messages and inbox when I exercise the right to run my own blog.

I feel like in media it’s very typical to see characters in a high school setting and then their life magically works out and they go to their dream school or there’s a time jump and we see them fresh out of college. And those stories are important because of course it’s normal to struggle in high school (and hey that’s the target audience). But what I love about Nancy Drew, is we get to see what happens after high school and from the perspective of someone who doesn’t have things “magically workout”. We get to see a “high school burnout”; someone who had all of these hopes and dreams and plans, only for life to not turn out the way they expected. We see her struggle with grief and mental health. We see her figuring out who this person is that she has become and accepting that her identity and her worth aren’t tied to those plans she had for herself. And it’s SO refreshing to see because it’s such a real experience and struggle that people face (myself included).

Furthermore, the same can be said for the other members of the Drew Crew as well. We see characters who all are dealing with their own hardships and trauma all of which have some part that is deeply relatable. We see experiences like not living up to parents’ expectations, relationship trauma, having to take on too much responsibility from a young age, a desire to have a family, learning self-forgiveness, and figuring out what one’s purpose is (and so much more). The show starts with a group of people who started out not where they thought they would be in life and we get to see them grow and develop through their experiences with one another and figure out this crazy thing called life.

how does the battle nexus in Finding Home work?

Ever since Lou Jitsu stopped fighting, Big Mama didn't have enough of a constanst spectacle without running out of people to through in the ring, so she started holding seasonal championships

She bases the season off New York seasons since the Hidden City doesnt have such obvious seasonal changes (other than temperature). During the season, fights are held constantly, but they more of 1v1 or 2v2 fights that don't lead anywhere for the most part, but when the season comes to an end, a championship is held. The winners are given first dibs to join, but if there are any open spots, anyone can sign up

The championship is brutal and results in a fight to the death unless one party yields (as seen with Leo and Usagi in the first part; they've been fighting in the nexus long enough that Big Mama lets Usagi live despite the brutal environment of the championships because she knows Leo wouldn't kill him)

Every few years, if theres enough fighters that catch Big Mama's eye, she'll hold an Ultimate Championship where she hand picks all the competitors and most of the battles are fights to the death, although there are a few exceptions- after all, who would kill the child of Big Mama (Leo) and risk their own lives?

I may expand on the nexus and Leo's involvement in it at a later date.. I have a lot of thoughts about it :3

Okay so hear me out: draco as a spy for the order.

He proves himself to the golden trio in fifth year, for reasons I have yet to explain but will figure out soon enough, and runs to Severus during the summer in between fifth and sixth year before he gets the dark mark. Snape calms him down and they figure out what draco wants to do moving forward and what would be the smartest thing to do while keeping his morals in tact. They figure out the spy solution.

So snape takes draco to the order and is like “he should be a spy” and everyone’s like “no 😠” at first but then dumbledore goes “yes 🤓” and everyone goes “yeah we were joking he can join our club 😁” (I’m being funny not serious. I am also seriously minimizing the amount of time all of this will take and the complexity of all of it, but follow along)

Does all of that make sense? You guys obviously can’t read my mind and have no idea what I’m going to do with the characters yet, but this solves a big plot hole that I was trying to figure out a way through.

"one more shot then im quitting forever" is an insane line to come from the guy who responded to the (very unnecessary) hatred over his album + last album he worked on with a letter that was so upsetting many people thought it was a suicide note.

when you're so tired because of work things and you can't even do a proper comeback against the fangirl bullying teasing that @izhunny and @i-wanna-be-in-england is doing against you

Factors which may contribute to autistic burnout…

im pretty sure solar overworking himself constantly is his way of coping

basically just: if im constantly busy with things then i dont have to confront my trauma and emotions

so im pretty sure hes trying to avoid having to deal with his emotions after everything that has happened. he very likely thinks of himself as a burden to others so thats also a reason for why he overworks himself. its so that he feels useful

he needs therapy i swear-

OH YEA NO FOR SURE !!!

It's a mix of how our Eclipse handled stuff and how Earth handles stuff!! A mix of "Just keep busy, don't think" and "If I'm the helper, I shouldn't need time be helped" that comes out as a fun bundle of "I'm the one relied upon to fix stuff and fixing stuff is how I don't think about the stress of my situation so can everyone please just keep asking me to do stuff so I can keep being distracted and feel like my existence is actually justified here."

It's such a messy tangle of coping mechanisms and the fact he also isn't aware of it is just another staple for any Eclipse I guess!! No matter what world, the blindless of their own issues and wellbeing is a promise huh LMAO 😭

Hmm wanted to try challenging myself to make an earth design for @oobbbear s celestial twins au (since they mentioned not really wanting to make one)

Not sure I’m happy with how they turned out, may do some tweaking

one thing i've just been noticing abt ivory's videos is just. the idea of proving yourself, despite all of the odds against you. if its fighting a 100 wardens or killing god, there's always something to be proven. it's proving that you are capable of accomplishing anything, and you'll do so in a heartbeat.

and that, of course, builds a reputation, right? everyone knows ivory! and she's built a very intense reputation for herself, and she's pretty much feared on every single smp shes on

but with that reputation...you're pressured to keep it up. you're forced to go onto the next big thing. to prove that you can accomplish anything in a heartbeat.

so you do the same things over and over again, ramping up the stakes without taking a minute to calm down and breathe

but maybe, there's a small part of you that begs you to stop. to slow down, take a moment for yourself, and take a moment to look back at everything. just to rest

but.

you have a reputation to uphold. even as part of you screams at you and forces you to put in the breaks, the only thing on your mind is to keep on going. to prove you can do what you've set your mind to, and what you've worked so hard for.

(but in the end, it barely feels like anything before you turn away and look for the next accomplishment to complete, because you've killed off the part that forces you to step back and question what you're doing.)
