Not that I want to watch new copaganda (I tolerate Law and Order Organized Crime for Elliot Stabler, as a character from my youth), but I got bored and needed something to watch, so I've put on the Turner and Hooch reboot show staring Josh Peck. (OH WAIT THIS ISNT A REBOOT THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF THE MOVIE! I could believe Josh Peck as Tom Hanks's son. Now I get why they hired Peck.)
I hate it.
Like, I'm sure they won't touch on any big issues and what not, but they are still gonna cop wrong.
So, Turner is apparently a US Marshall and they have this witness they need to protect. Well, the witness got shot and apparently the best place they thought to have him was...
Tumblr media
Out in the fucking open with NO COVER.
Like, please think you guys, this is cop show 101. This is one of the reasons Disney shouldn't make a cop show (besides all the other reasons to not make a cop show).
Oh, and they had him crash through a homeless man's cart full of cans for laughs, I guess? Lots of just other really annoying things about that car chase too.
And of course no one took the time to teach Josh Peck how to hold a gun:
Tumblr media
BEND YOUR ARM DUDE!
If you are going to make a cop show, please hire actual former law enforcement TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR TALENT HOLDING WEAPONS CORRECTLY AND WRITING CORRECT TACTICAL RESPONSES! I DONT FUCKING CARE IF ITS A DAMN DIANEY SHOW, DO YOUR FUCKING RESEARCH AND HIRE EXPERTS AND LISTEN TO THEM!
I honestly don't understand the target audience for this show. It seems light it's supposed to be a light hearted show for adults, I guess? But if that's the case THEN THEY DEFINITELY NEED TO DO THEIR JOB!
Having a dog in the building is not a health code violation pal, you're a lawyer, you should know that.
The only acting I don't like on this show is by Josh Peck. I until this moment I think he had dead eyes.
Ok, his acting got better.
Seriously, who is the target audience of this show, like, it's dumb. There's so much dumb here. It can't be fore kids too much because someone was shown with a bloody shoulder after an attempted hit. It can't be fore adults because how how back the cop (functional-wise) and how bad the writing is. Who is this for?
Omg, no way an FBI agent pulling an inside job would be dumb enough to actually be part of the team who went to got kill someone. No way.
WHO IS THIS DUMB SHOW FOR?!
At least they are giving their all in the acting department on the show. Well, most of them most of the time for sure.
Why TF did they make a noise somewhere and then go in almost immediately to a room with no less bad guys? Oh yeah, they don't know what they're doing! Such a dumb scene.
"What kind of idiots are you?!" One mind, this character and I have. Except that's me at their production crew, and writers, and director.
The only character that's made any sense on this show is the guy who got shot in the earlier picture that I had up there.
Like, I get that it's tv, "suspension of disbelief" and all that, but, like, some of this is easily clockable dumb.
WHO IS THIS SHOW FOR?! IT'S SO DUMB BUT IT CANT BE FOR KIDS! I DONT GET IT!
The bad guy. Was just. Standing outside.
WHAT THE FUCK.
Uh...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Whoever CGI'd these paws didn't do great job. Like, the fur is definitely too long, the motion or the paws isn't right, they are the wrong color, and not the right size either.
No sure how they did these shots:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But if they were CG too, - which I'm not convinced they aren't, - why are they so much better than the paws? Wait, they might be real. The guy's shirt is crumpled.
Oh god, they are putting an ARC in this show? WHY?! They don't need that. This isn't some serious show, just make it episodic, damnit! We need more episodic shows in this world! Why won't people make those anymore?
McG...wait...(goes to IMDb)HE WAS AN EXECUTIVE PRODUCER ON SUPERNATURAL FROM 2005 TO 2013?! Hunh. Oh and on Nikita. Explains why Lyndsy Fonseca is in this. I like her. He's done some other stuff I've seen too. Interesting.
I MIGHT watch this just to give myself something to do. But I think watching this gave me a headache.

hi !! can I please get a 🍰?
i just came across of you writing and it is so cute !! (´-﹏-`;) every post made me feel all warm & fuzzy inside ~ please feel free to totally ignore this if this isn't the proper way to ask or if you already closed your request (also I'm sorry if you already closed your request I didn't noticed) . Also sorry if this has any grammatical errors or if the descriptions don't make sense, english isn't my first language.
so, uhm, to begin my name is elliot (she/her) I'm 5'4, I'm from argentina (south america) i speak spanish & english (among other languages) idk how much I'm supposed to put on here so I'm just going to describe myself as redacted as possible. (Don't know if this is necessary but I'm jewish ¿) ^_________^
I have short brown wavy hair, just a couple of centimeters below my ears, i have bangs, I'm very pale ¿ not chubby but also not skinny average if i may say so. My fashion style changes from time to time but i usually wear clothing in the range of black to white, also sometimes I like trying whatever aesthetic is going around at the time.
Personality wise I'm pretty calm at first, i'm not very good with getting to know new people so I try to be as quite as possible but once I get comfortable i tend to be very loud, i like making my friends laugh since i think that's the most sincere way of knowing they talk to me because they like me. I would say I'm like the mom friend/therapist friend since i really like helping and listening people talk. I love having deep conversations with friends/loved ones, they give me this sense of connection nothing else can give me. I am very blunt and it usually comes off as rude but i try to sugar-coat my words as much as possible.
And while I very much love everyone who is friends with me I have a very hard time showing it and/or showing my empathy for them (one of the reasons as to why I'm not good with meeting new people) but i try to become a better version of me day to day.
What i look in a person is someone who can understand me and my boundaries, since I'm germophobic PDA isn't really something that i enjoy doing but with time i can get myself around to it. Someone whom I can trust enough to be emotionally open with and vice versa. Talkative or not doesn't matter to me. My love language is acts of service. ^_________^
I hope you have a really amazing day ! ! remember to drink water and eat something yummy (*^3^)/~♡ don't be too harsh on yourself and keep in mind that many people love you, ba-bye ! ╰(⸝⸝⸝´꒳`⸝⸝⸝)╯
🍰 for @vvanteffect
Romantic Matchup
Sakusa Kiyoomi
Tumblr media
How yall met
You guys met during the All-Japan Youth Training Camp
(You were a partial manager from Nekoma during that time)
Shockingly enough he actually approached you
Granted his cousin was forcing him to socialize but that's not important
He had noticed how you tended to stay away from other people or how when you did talk to someone it was usually a very short conversation
Basically you seemed like the least contaminated person he could talk to so he just went for it
Right away he noticed how blunt you were
Like he would ask you a question adn the longest answer you would give him was about a sentence
“Hey how are you”
“Good”
“Uh so what school are you from”
“Nekoma”
You get what i'm saying
But honestly he didn't really care he just kept talking to you
And the longer he talked to you the longer your responses would get
You guys spent the rest of camp together
And when it was time to go home you exchanged numbers so you could stay in contact
Your schools weren't too far from each other so you guys would see each other in person when you were both free
And well he ended up falling for you
What they love about you
Of course he loves that your also a partial germaphobe
It makes it easier for him to be around you knowing that you try your best to stay clean
He loves how simple you are
From the clothes you wear
To how you talk to other people
He tends to over analize if people are to complicated
But with you everything is just short and sweet
He loves how good of a listener you are
Like if he's had a bad day he can just call you and rant about it
And not only do you listen
But you also help him solve his problems
This next one isn't really something he loves more like something he's proud of
He's very proud that he's gained enough of your trust for you to talk to him
Like full blown conversations
Your guys convos have come a long way from the very first conversation you had
He's just happy that you trust him enough to talk to him
What you love about them
You love that he respects your boundaries
Let's be honest here
Mans isn't really into PDA either
Like come on
LOOK who were talking about here
But that's not the only boundary he respects
He respects All of your boundaries
Like all you have to do is tell him you don't like something and he'll stop
You love how he can handle your bluntness and not get offended
Honestly when you look back on how you met him
Your shocked that he even kept talking to you
That whole training camp people would keep on trying to talk to you
But then leave after a short while because you were being blunt and they took it the wrong way
But not Sakusa
He kept on talking to you even when you were acting pretty cold
And your very appreciative about that
Favorite things to do together
Ok so even though you live semi close together
It's not like your neighbors
So his favorite thing to do with you is to just facetime you and talk about each others days
And when you guys are able to get together
He prefers that you both just stay inside for the most part
So you do just that
Usually your in person hangouts include playing board games, reading,or watching movies together
And if you guys decide to go out
He makes you wear a mask the whole time
And you guys will usually just take a walk at a park or on the beach
Somewhere where theres not a lot of people yk
Random Hc
He has bought you two matching masks
His homescreen on his phone is a picture of you that he took while facetime you
Once you guys were in public and he accidently gave you a kiss while both of your masks were on
And now thats just became a norm for you two
You guys have these matching pajamas
Friendship Matchup
Kuroo Tetsurou
Tumblr media
How yall met
You are Nekomas manager
And since kuroo was the captain you worked very closely with him
Which eventually made a friendship bloom
Why you became friends
He kind of saw you as a compitition if that makes sense??
Like when he first met you it's almost like you didn't want to talk to him
Which couldn't be true because he's awesome!
Sure you are kuroo
Anyways kenma had made some backhand comment on how some people just dont wanna talk to him
And kuroo was like 🧐
So he made it his goal to befriend you
It started with him having basic conversation with you everyday
Then it turned into him talking to you during the school day
Which then turned into him inviting you to hand out after school
Eventually you guys just became besties
What yall love about each other
He loves how straightforward you are
Like if you don't like something youll say it
If someones ticking you off you'll tell them
Even though your bluntness is something you get insecure about sometimes
He thinks it's one of your best traits
He also loves that you are bilingual
It makes for a good time when your ranting about something because your languages will start to blend
And if your really mad you'll just switch to spanish and just start ranting
And even though he can't understand a word your saying
He just smile and nods till your done
You love how deep your conversations can get
Like he'll play along with whatever deep topic you talk about
“What's the meaning of life”
“I would say its to give life a meaning”
Yeah y'all talked about that for HOURS
You also like how helpful he is
If your ever having a hard time managing the team he'll always offer a helping hand
And if your ever struggling with schoolwork he's always there to help you
Random Hc
He was very shocked when you and Sakusa started dating
He threatened to kick his ass if he ever broke up with you
Hes tried to learn spanish but gave up after a week
But he did learn how to say all the cuss words in spanish
After he befriended you he rubbed it in kenmas face
Kenma was just like 😐 ok
But kuroo took satisfaction in his victory
You really had kuroo thinking for a whole day when you asked him
Did the color orange come before the fruit? Or is it vice versa?
Still hasn't come up with an answer to that question

Final Thoughts: Hellraiser 3
WHAT THE HELL WAS-
Ok ok. No. Not again.
This one didn’t quite hit the mark for me like the first two did. The effects weren’t quite as astounding as they were before. Maybe cuse the totally lost the skin-er non skin suit? They toned down the blood a LOT too. Much less gore than before.
It also tried to tell a specific story but fell short on a few things. The blurb on the box about it delving into The Priests past and how he came to be was, well, supremely misleading. There was about as many words talking about Elliott ‘s past as were in the box blurb. I had to look up what war Elliott was even supposed to be from cuse they didn’t make that all that clear. Elliott didn’t even say much, just that opening the box was his next exploration/discovery. But how he found the box? What he thought it would be? Nothing. I was hoping to hear more about Leviathan since he was the one who made The Priest (you can see his tentacles in the beginning of the second movie. the ones he gave The Doctor). I was hoping for something like the creation of a Cenobite from their perspective. Didn’t get that.
BUT
Lets ignore what I was hoping for. Cant really judge the movie for the bad marketing it got. So what about what the movie actually gave us?
It starts off as your typical “reporter stumbles onto the supernatural” thing which is a decent way to transition to a new set of characters imo. You have the characters trying to unwrap the old mystery while dealing with the new threat and, when done well, gives a recap of the old that doesn’t feel forced. Often they have new scenes from the old story that help to flesh it out and keep the old interesting for those who already saw the original story. They started to do that here with Jo getting the tape of Kirsty at the hospital that we never saw but what Kirsty said wasn’t anything new. It was the same thing she’d said over and over in the second movie.
The new characters didn’t get enough time to develop either. Some extra time could have been spent on building Jo and Terri’s roles as Jo unravels the mystery while jumping back to Monroe brining girls up to his loft and giving them to the pillar. It would have made Terri’s feelings of betrayal much more believable when she finds out about Jo’s new job and a steady progression of mania for Monroe would have mirrored the first movie with Julia’s degrading mental state as she killed for Frank.
Again, like the other 2 movies, this one suffered HEAVILY from “tell dont show” syndrome. The Priest tells us that Monroe killed his family for their fortune. Elliot tells us the war fucked him up. The Priest tells us he made the new pseudo Cenobites. All of this could and should have been SHOWN to us. Especially the later. It could have been a great way to show The Priests degrading mental stability as, without his human half, hes unfocused and undisciplined.
The designs of the pseudo Cenobites were...interesting? Again, if it had been used as a way to display The Priests mental stability I think I would have liked them better. And to a point, they do, kind of. Not, like, the designs themselves, per say, but their existence in general. Leviathan created the original crew. They did disfigure themselves to a point but it was mostly the doing of Leviathan. For them it was erotic sadomasochism which was mostly seen in The Priest and the Female but even Butterball and Chatter had sexualized elements to their designs. The pseudo’s? They’re just...shock value. Dreamer and Piston (Terri and Monroe) had a bit more thought into them; Dreamer more than Piston; but Cam, CD, and the Bartender were just kind of eh.
Again, if it had been spread out more it could be a great timeline of The Priests degrading mental state. Trying to recreate his former partners he creates Dreamer and Piston to be kinda like the old crew (I’d say the Female and Chatter respectively), putting time and care into their creation. As he continues, though, we see the evidence of his missing discipline in the next pseudos he makes, them being less artistic and erotic and more just existing to exist. It would have culminated in the final scene with Elliot remerging with The Priest and finding his discipline again.
Ok, I can hear the keyboards clacking now.
“He’s a demon who likes to hurt people. Why would his mental state have anything to do with it?” or something there abouts?
Think back to 2. Its The Priest that stops the other 3 from starting in on Tiffany. Why? Discipline. He had them go after Julia and the Doctor instead. I’d even say that he probably would have let Kirsty go in the first movie after they took Frank if they didn’t feel like they’d been betrayed. They wanted “the man who did this” and pointed to what she thought was Frank but was really her father. They didn’t know what she was thinking. All they knew is she said she’d give them Frank and now she refused to. Remember how he said “this is not for your eyes” before they tore Frank apart? He was sparing her that bit, a reward for doing what she said she’d do. But she still reneged in their eyes and was thus no longer innocent thats why they went after her in the end and explains their animosity in the second one.
Discipline and Focus.
Thats what The Priest was in the first two movies. A sadomasochistic demon, yes, but disciplined and focused. He didn’t have that in 3 which FIT because he didn’t have Elliot.
TL;DR?
It was ok. Lacking in parts and not quite on par with the others but not bad. I’d say a 6-7/10.

I dont know what I'm doing here, on this lounge couch bullshit my aunt gave me, it's white and rich looking which is everything opposite of me (haha), kidding. I can't complain. Thanks, dad. Thanks, mom. For the credit card debt and constant bickering over money. It's easy, it's nice, to forget what that arguing sounded like, to forget the tension that built so quickly in my chest. I watched a movie and the boy’s parents were arguing over the phone and i really hate the word trigger, but it got me, man. That visceral sound. That hate. I wept. Fuck you, mom and dad, for never trying to hide it. Why didn't you wait until I understood or when I could leave.
But anyway, this couch is pretentious as fuck. And of course it's stained, because we moved it three times and it's fucking white. But what I really was asking was not why I'm in this specific location, but what the fuck I'm doing. Why am I writing. Why am I not learning something. Or exercising. Or trying to rest. Or applying to jobs. Or telling my friend that her girlfriend obviously doesn't love her and please stop wasting time. Also, that sucks that the person ignoring you has your dog. Niiiice.
Prompt: What can you work on in hibernation? Get fat. No, but seriously, it's okay, it's going to happen. Eat more donuts. Don't obsessively walk and do planks after a guilty food. Remember, they're all guilty foods. You've lived off spinach and celery and popcorn before. It ruins lives. HAHA. MORE THAN ONE. He'll still love you. Someone will still think you're pretty. Maybe?
Prompt: Does it matter that you're pretty? I guess not 
Prompt: Why did he leave? I think it was the apathy. Apathetic to everything 
Prompt: Which he are we talking about? Fuck off. Neither matter. 
I wish I came and left people's lives without hurting them. A quick kiss, hold, punch, walk in the dark. I wish I always had the trust even if I didn't earn it. I wish my "you're worth it," always sank deep. I don't know why I'm here and that goes through my head constantly. Fuck, I keep forgetting to ask Brooke if she's okay. 
This house is too big. I feel exposed. Is it obnoxious that I'm listening to Elliot Smith. Yes. I'm not there, yet. I've been reading this book about actually feeling and existing knowingly in your body. About dealing with emotions as they come, sink into the discomfort, let it ride and leave. Too bad I don't do that. Change over the laundry. Pinch my sides. Drink more coffee. I took 3 shots this last Friday after deciding to close our business. I didn't deal with that, now that I'm thinking about it. Financial scare. Then everyone giving their selfish opinions on how it's the wrong thing to do. I hope your elderly parents don't get intubated. You ever see that shit? Then looking at him as I lifted wine to my lips, really seeing him. Soft green eyes, understanding. The fear rose quickly. Please don't get sick. You won't take care of yourself. I don't think you get to die twice. Stay here. Don't leave me. You have more happiness to experience, too. Alcohol doesn't numb my pain and it never has. I just breathed out mezcal. I remember running down the cobbled street laughing wildly after breaking a toilet cover in a historical bar and taking upside-down shots. I remember trying to forget I wouldn't see her for another year or two or three. I remember understanding that life was short at that time. Short and beautiful. Beauty can't be had without the ability to lose.

Dream dump
Super messed up dream where alex cheated with my mom!!! She was gone for a trip and came back and admitted it to me like it was an accident. My dad didnt care. Also alex had just become my step brother or step cousin cuz his dad got married to like my aunt? Anyway I worked with jenn and izzy and they knew. I ate a bag if chex mix and yelled at them.
Matt n anne had reception or wedding, family was super rude af so he told me to make thank you notes only for specific people. Then I was in Little witch academia, brooms were malfunctioning because they were made by Elon Musk. We left his mansion and flew around under these power poles that were arcing and letting off electricity. I was in the forest and ran down this steep hill with dead and falling trees in the night. I ran to the work lockup and homeless guys started appearing and following me, flew away on my broom.
Was staying at this haunted old mansion. My mom might have used to live there? I was in a room with 3 fireplaces going, tried to put them out. Then in bathroom when a door to the laundry kept opening by itself, very creepy. Then I was there with a whole class, everyone had submitted a drawing of a bio of themselves but no one told me cuz hadn't worked with a group. One girl there I was really jealous of, she was like Linnea and Tedi combined. Her drawing was of her with a black person saying stuff about equality, but her bio also said she was a cheerleader so I was like, that's how shes so good at being social
Dreamed I had been moved into a group home cuz of mental health, but then got into some school or university with some elite girl dorm or sorority? Idk I went from one group in a nice house to a really big group in dorm style room with bunk beds. Girls were all really cool, Kaitlyn corkery was there and didnt remember me. Thought she was gonna be stuck up but she wanted to hang out. Went to some event or meal, lots of people drunk, maybe it was winter with ice skating? Brought Alex's skateboard. Courtney anderson got kicked out of our group, tried to be soothing but she was reading one of my cover letters and crying that she didnt have the experience.
Dreamed I was still dating elliot but wanted to dump him for alex, but I was also flirting/making out w Nina who was also Jennifer Lawrence at the same time? I felt really shitty and hadn't spoken to eliot for days and days, also Sirius black was his godfather and had just died. Went to the Porters house which was this big historic place everyone hung out. Then was looking for bats and a camping spot with work crew. Wanted to drive to moquoketa caves but it was late at night. Texted olivia hottle about her being pregnant all the time? Also Lauren showed up and was trying to show me something or be a nice sister to me
I was in a book store looking at the manga and comics and there was huge section on aadams family, apparently started in 20s by same guy as Opus? First book had goth lady dating a cute penguin, named Alice Walker. Movie made about it, she was Greek orthodox and family was mad she was wearing socks instead of hose, then woke up
Tourmaline came over, she forgot my name. Had asked someone 2 sing her a lullaby on FB and I almost did but then mad she forgot my name. She went by They also, forgot when introducing her to parents. She started making hot dogs in our kitchen, burnt them in oven. Smthn bout Davin being my step grandpa somehow? Then at this family reunion, big neighbors house was a muppet face that talked. King bumi was there testing our bending, I was the avatar but didnt know firebending yet, dodged him with water and air. He threw rocks and kids tried to find them, I knew he was gonna hang onto one. Let a little toddler have it instead and win his contest. Then back in high school at lunch, everyone outside. Couldn't find friends, saw Nate and elliot doing hackey sack but didnt want to be around them. Went looking for allison Richmond?
Rly scary, ppl were in black mirror-esque simulation where I kept dying but could come back to choose different choice and keep going. Mine was at reunion party with Ellen, not eating weird toadstool. Alex was in a mansion party, people there drank this mix of sodas that turned them into fast zombies, his doc warned him to hide but they found him in a few different places. In one, he found vaccine to it and put a boy to sleep, I thought syringe was poison and he was gonna shoot him but it was a vaccine and alex and bay kept running thru the house to hide. I got caught by little kid with bloody eyes, tried to stab him but he didnt care. Cello music happening, slow motion. Also smthn bout trying to find a different desktop pic cuz mine had Mike in it even tho alex didnt know that was him, all my other pics were old ones with me and elliot in high school and my hair was short and flipped out at the bottom, looked really bad. Then zombie dream continued after waking up n sleeping again, I was young teen with bunch of others and my parents, stormy night, we were travelling to that mansion and I was trying to warn everyone to hide cuz no one knew about the zombies. Then was on weird spiderman themed waterpark ride, somebody in costume yanked my hair as I was going down slide, got really mad but couldn't find them afterwards because everyone was in spiderman costumes
Dreamed I was camping 4 work again on the steep trail at elwha dam. There was a deep cave I didnt go into. We were leaving and I had all this laundry to do. Then went to alex's mom or dad house, brad was there and also elliot. He kept telling me I had to sleep with him because we were still dating, but I knew he had gotten married cuz jenna went to the wedding and took pics. Also something with Charlotte and her friend, they were leaving school for the summer and stole sheet music cuz they both played violin, and no one was allowed to keep the music? I was jealous that she played violin
Dreamed all these women who were friends got really fucked up on drugs and jumped off a balcony at a church and died. The last one looked kinda like america ferrera and she stopped and saw them below her and froze up until someone rescued her. Really sad, I was one of the friends I guess. We were on a trip together and like 3 of us lived, it was just a 3 day weekend trip. Was avoiding talking about them, went swimming naked in this creek in a forest but some guys and their kids showed up so I had to sneak out. Everyone reminiscing about women who died, one was that actress the mom from EASY A. She always told jokes about her super grip strength, was really funny. America ferrera was friends with this woman who was huge like andre the giant, her head was ENORMOUS. Then was being driven home by this lady on a weird car/train hybrid, we were careening along this track like flying in the air at times. Stopped in the forest, then the vehicle became more like an excavator
Was in van outside mall, got held up by Lora and her sister and mom, they had guns and ordered everyone out. I had a gun hidden and I headshot both sisters and tell their mom to put her weapon down. Then standing in circle with lotr cast, we had just ended filming? Was holding pinkies with sean astin and viggo, both being very flirty. Then was camping with alex n his family, we all had our own cars. Me n him left to go bone somewhere private, run into a wild boar and her babies. I climb up onto a random bookshelf, but she climbs using her mouth. I flatten her under a huge book and I have a knife but cuts do no damage. I knock her off the shelf but then alex is still on the ground, then I woke up
Was working as a reporter for Rebecca from NOSC but it was at a college. Kept reminding everyone that women dont make as much money, was gonna research n report about it with all the women at the school. Trying to play computer game and Rebecca got mad I didnt have enough work, said I was gonna report about rush Limbaugh and how some whole govt branch he was in was rigged and set people up to fail, rebecca got really excited but I was worried cuz I didnt know amything about politics
On lake w my mom, she could sing like Elsa n it was echoing on the water. Then funeral procession went across with floating coffin n bowling alley stuff, lady who owned bowling alley had died. I started crying pretty hard even tho I didnt know her. Smthn bout going back to ecos, or I had volunteered there for a season. Then was being chased down by people cuz they wanted to execute me and another person. Daniel had heard of the zodiac killer when he was a kid
Dreamed olivia hill betrayed me. Her family worked for a bridal photo company n I was in this big room looked kinda like church, she had acted all nice to me and then did something horrible, idr what, and gleefully gave this evil speech about how she fooled me and actually hated my guts. I might have punched her? I did tell her I always hated her shitty mom, and that's why she probably betrayed me. Also smthn about working for the tribe again with kenzie and allyce doing swamp science
Me n alex trying to move to iowa, thinkin bout what friends I have left in either place. Smthn before that too idr

There’s really a lot to say
im a bit tired and drained right now to go into detail of my experience the past two days, but i’ll try to sum it all up accurately. so basically drank and smoked a lot with my time with elena and kevin, having the withdrawals of that, it was basically a night and day i did that with them. i’ve just been feeling a slight depression but it’s in my own head. at first i was not happy with being here, but now I'm a  bit imbalanced about it, i leave in like a day and im feeling sad, i want to stay here longer. it’s in my gut. i want to be with my parents more, i fell like i didnt serve them as much as i’d like to, anytime not spent with them i look back and realized i somewhat failed. but here i go being harsh on them. it is all a lesson, and i realized i much rather be with my folks out of anyone. last night i was at book people in my head being extremely depressed and reaching to others for my own happiness, i realized it isn't the right thing to do, but i couldn't help it. being let down didnt help either, everyone had a valid excuse to not have time available to me, but i then created more pity for myself. until i reached my last resort, akash to basically walk around and hang with me downtown. it was amazing . i had so much fun. my ego was fulfilled bc i put make up that day and just felt too good looking to go home (seriously), so i showed off my body and materialistic self, my shell, bc we walked along 6th street , and i also fed my knowdlge, or should i say he did. we talked so much about guitars, or should i say he did. he taught me so so so so much . just like the last time we hung out. i misjudge him sometimes bc he usually talks a lot about himself and things i do not really care about, but recently i’ve been experiencing moments with him that I'm  just being fed so much knwodlege. we talked about so much, he knows soooo much, especially about guitars. how they work, whats what, the history,,philosophy and anatomy and structure and brands. so amazing. made my night. i learned about hum bucker, one of the most fun things i learned. i love the science and structure and energy about it. we literally were outside a venue and saw a heavy psychedelic show through a small window, and he saw that it was a les paul with a hum bucker, and thats how the conversation started. so sick, cant wait to see him tomorrow. my interest for guitars grew. i tried to watch more and learn more and listen to hendrix more (of course) on the way home. now talk about today. went to work with mom today,, i was a bit imbalanced and dragged and feeling a bit depressed, i feel so bad, my energy was not on top of its game in the morning, but i respect and accept it bc i only had a few hours of sleep and i didnt do yofa or anything. my mom is so cute, we watched a few youtube videos of soul train and james brown and the jackson 5, it was so fun we laughed a lot. i was so inspired. and she put the jackson 5 movie for me while she worked. after a few hours i felt very unproductive which led to more stress and depression, and i was sassy and negative energy towards her and quiet. but i did yoga in a little room and put a negative blockage release music on youtube and did like 5-10 min yoga in there before beverly took us to lunch . i was a bit upset too bc last encounter i had with beverly was not so fun. i had the same experience of drunk and high withdrawals and was just so out of energy to maintain how much she talks about her self. but this time was so great, I'm so glad i did a small yoga sash, i was talkative and positive and inspired. i had a said with small pasta with mama. i was inspired and pictured myself living on a mountain in colorado in trailer with a goat . a fence and the goat next to my trailer (-: then we got back and she did work in the mail room while i played funky disco and danced in the room- it was so healthy and I'm glad i got my energy up and moving. rick james, bee gees, jackson five, earth wind and fire, i jammed to all of it. then we went to guitar center and saw elliot sean pamela spencer and rob. it was such a fucking crazy experience. rob basically offered a free lesson but i gave him a decision too late but it worked out bc amazing thomas gave me a free lesson during his break for one hour AND IT KICKED SO MUCH FUCKING ASS HES SO FUCKING COOL he literally taught me so much and i love how he talks about things and he's so kick ass he talked about scales and how they relate to golden ratio he asked what do i wanna learn and i was so eager and excited bc i literally am so interested in everything right now like i want to learn so much and i got this opportunity like the universe heard my callings it was so amazing i said i want to learn the anatomy and physics of a guitar and sounds of the piano and he was like ok si see you want to basically learn everything and then i said i wanted to learn fearless by pink floyd and he taught me the way carlo did with the fundamental first and showed me scales which by the way is an extremely dense and hard concept to explain to someone but i got it tonight and he just talked about so much and taught me so much and it was so fun we were laughing and it made my fuckign day it was sick and it was his break like he offered and get this tomorrow or aka today bc its 2 am i have a lesson at 3 pm with him again!!! i need to get this scale down so I'm prepared to learn the next step in learning fearless. such  cool dude. I'm gonna invite him to my going away party on friday! so many opportunities everywhere and i love it! literally i love my life like evryewhre I'm at i get an amazing opportunity. then me and mom went to torchys and the drive we talked so much and at torchys we talked and laughed so much literally love her so much she is the love of my life and the light of my life i dont know what I'm going to do without her I'm so sad i miss her already she is my best friend I'm so myself with her and we laugh so much we cracked so many dumb jokes and at torchsy i was basicallyy yelling from laughter and she loves me so so much she was so happy for me when i got the lesson and she put soul train for me and jackson 5 while she worked fuck i got so lucky wit her and she supported and suggested i do yoga in this room bc i told her i need it but in a bitchy way god damn i love this woman. we went to half price then i went to kierstens bc brennon invited me but i was very awkward and shy, mainly bc sam was there. just unsure. of my relationship with everyone, i got there and brennon didnt even really talk to me but nonetheless grateful he invited me but everyone was out of the pool already and it was off and i literally shaved for it and cleaned my bathing and showed up in a big shirt and just ugh i was a bit annoyed and aggravated and uncmorftbale there was so many people and i was confused and just jealous that people had a lot of stories i was never invited to bc well i was friends with all these people (sam john keirsten and brennon) before they even hung out or knew each other and now they exclude me in things and the fact that sam was there made my energy confused but it was all good he said bye to me and put me in a chokehold and i told him 1/24th of my gutisr center experience but they were all smoking and i just got back from being with my mom and learning so much so it was just awkward plus i really wanted to swim but no one would go with me its all whatever I'm going to gc tomorrow and invited sam and then spending the evening with my father he deserves it honestly i spent 0 one on one time with him and I'm sure he has a lot of good to say but i came home and ignored my negative thoughts and feelings that had to do with my ego and not showing off my shaved body or not going swimming or my overthinking of my friends and just went straight to learning the G major scale and I FEEL SO FUCKING GOOD I FUCKING LOVE THIS SHIT I LOVE LEARNING I LOVE ALL THESE FUCKING EXPERIENCES AND LESSONS AND THINGS I AM GETTING IN MY LIFE IM FEELING ALREADY SAD ABOUT LEAVING IM GOING TO MISS MY ROOM I LOVE MY ROOM I LOVE MY PRIVACY I LOVE GUITAR CENTER I LOVE LEARNING HERE I LOVE MY MOM I LOVE THIS BEAUTIFUL HOUSE I LOVE MY BEUAITULL FAMILY THIS SUMMER KICKEDSO MUCH ASS SO MUCH GRATTIDUFE UGH I MISS EVERYONE ALREADY WHAT THE HELL AM I GONNA DO WHEN I LEAVE ILLL BE OK SHIT I HAVE SUCHA  GOOD LIFE HERE AND IN SF WHAT THE FUCK i need to work on my souls growth i need to do good no more imbalanced my brother is showing me the light i have the opportunity for growth and smoking isn't helping I'm doing so good

Disney’s ‘clean’ Star Wars release could have a sting in the tale
Many of George Lucass additions to the special edition Star Wars trilogy were heinous. But those keen to see such tweaks reversed should be careful what they wish for
William Wordsworth once described poetry as the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings. And yet later in life, the doyen of English Romanticism took scissors to the fruit of his youthful impulses, rewriting a number of his most celebrated poems in the image of his older, more conservative self. Something similar happened to George Lucas with the special editions of the original Star Wars trilogy, except that the space sagas pioneering creator did not so much rip the youthful vigour from Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi as goofball them up, with added CGI Jabbas, utterly incongruous digital quadrupeds and that fracking lizard thing in the Sarlaccs gaping maw not to mention the eternally controversial decision to make Greedo shoot first.

A report on the respected fan site Making Star Wars suggests Disney might be about to do what Lucas himself would never have done if he had retained the rights (we know this because Lucas made it clear that he saw the special editions as the only ones in a 1997 interview) and release the original trilogy for home viewing, minus all those abhorrent additions. Might we even be due an announcement at the forthcoming 40th anniversary Star Wars celebration in Orlando?
The prospect of seeing Star Wars in its originally intended form has become a holy grail for acolytes, with numerous fan-made edits and editions available in the more illegal corners of the internet. But presumably only Disney has access to the original footage though the American Library of Congress is said to retain a 35mm cut of the original 1977 edition of Star Wars and only the studio can ensure it puts this one to bed for ever.
The problem, as Lucas spotted more than a decade ago, is that the original films featured a mix of models and puppetry that doesnt stand up to the harsh glare of todays HD (and ultra HD) screens. The Empires Star Destroyers, slipping glacially through space like cosmic leviathans, not to mention the menacing twin Death Stars, look spectacular in the special editions, Lucass light-touch digital tinkerings perfectly masking the shortcomings of special effects in the 1970s and 80s. Without these updates, Star Wars fans might well find themselves discovering that the original movies are not quite as they remember them. Those desperate to see Lucass ill-considered tweaks reversed should therefore be careful what they wish for.

Had Star Wars creator limited the special edition changes to occasional sprinkles of digital fairy dust, the entire conversation that has surrounded them for the best part of 40 years might never have happened. By way of contrast, the 20th anniversary edition of ET, by Steven Spielberg, did not feature additional CGI space pixies prancing round the aliens head during that BMX lift-off (though Spielberg later admitted he got it wrong in swapping the guns carried by Elliots pursuers for walkie-talkies). Rather, they simply made ET more lifelike and realistic, boasting complex facial expressions that would not have been possible in 1982.

If Disney has the guts to excise Lucass worst abominations that awful CGI take on Sy Snootles in Return of the Jedi; the furry thing that insists on baring its tonsils at Jabbas palace; the unnecessary new song we should be prepared to accept that the special editions did make some improvements. I have no problem with Ian McDiarmids Emperor being superimposed over the features of a clumsily prostheticised Elaine Baker (wife of effects expert Rick) in The Empire Strikes Back, nor the extended early scenes in which Luke Skywalker encounters the Wampa on the ice planet of Hoth. Both are superior in the 1997 edition. I dont even have an issue with all those extra stormtroopers turning up to spook Han Solo in Star Wars, while the supercharged rendering of dogfighting X-wings and TIE Fighters during the battle of Yavin is also way better in the later cut.
Lets hope when we do finally get to view new, 21st-century editions of Lucass iconic triptych that Disney sees fit to give us versions featuring a blend of the best elements of the film-makers 1997 tinkerings and the original theatrical cuts. Leonardo da Vinci said that art is never finished, only abandoned, but Star Wars long history of shifting scenes and edits desperately needs a happy ending and not just for the sanity of viewers. Posterity itself is at stake. Star Wars is quite simply too important a film trilogy for future generations to be forced to view the final, celebratory scenes of Return of the Jedi being ruined by a ghost of Anakin Skywalker who looks suspiciously like Hayden Christensen and the jolting arrival of a bunch of happy, flag-waving Gungans.
