YALLLLLLLL THIS IS MY #1 DISO VINTAGE TAYLOR MERCH AND IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR IT IN B/S/T GROUPS FOR LIKE 5 YEARS AND I JUST FOUND IT IN A DALLAS THRIFT STORE OMFG

[vonn13]

Hc Steve harrington adores little magical things and has a small collection of like fairy homes or he collects plushie. His parents and friends/partners in the past made fun of him for liking these things so he's always kept them hidden away.

Now he's dating Eddie and this man thinks Steve put the goddamn stars in the sky and would do anything for him. So when he finds out about all of this he takes it in stride and feels so gooey that he makes like a garden setup so Steve can put the little fairy houses in their garden or he takes one of Steve's plushies with him on tour and makes a whole photo album of the plushie in different location across the globe. Like imagine maybe a bunny plushie with one of those cheesy Eiffel Tower pictures and this shit heals Steve's inner child so much.

[7/300] The world has seen the last of you!

I think one of the things that we, as internet denizens, need to really do is encourage ourselves to let go and fully embrace that change that's coming. It's fine. Leaving things behind isn't as scary as it sounds sometimes. I often see people talk about changing themselves and see them go through these seemingly incredible processes of cut-from-the-cloth metamorphoses... ---- ...only for it to hit you and realize how the change was, seemingly, just for show. And it's fine: Changes can be scary. We humans are fucking uncanny on zeroing into that thing that's going to change and having a "normal one" about it. And again, it's fine to have second guesses about any change coming down the pipeline. ---- You know what's not fine, though? Treating whatever may come as some sort of "other" or something to that effect. Again, it's fine to find yourself at a crossroads and feeling that you are lacking on something to further progress down that path. That fear? Normal as can be. Just don't let those fears rule over you for everything. ---- Life is already so goddamn weird + hard, and the amount of control we exert over our very lives keeps getting smaller and smaller. Embrace the changes as best you can and stop letting things that act more as hangers-on to finally shuffle themselves off of you. I hope you remember to change for the better, and I'll read you later, alligator!

In response to a great question by @etchif (I hope I’m doing this correctly again—bear with me still learning tumblr, probably will never learn on my phone, trying though?)

ANSWER:

Okay LISTEN HERE YOU, while for this production a strict NO ONE GETS MORE NOTICEABLE DICKS, I can confirm that a dear friend I will NEVER name (and no one will ever guess, don’t try, seriously, even tourmates were STUNNED and if it was anyone except me would think it was BS, I’m no snitch) tried to gift me his padded Tugger dance belts from US Tour V that all Tugger actors (except one I also will not name because not sure his fiancé wants that going around) were given/made/constructed and was legitimately baffled as to why I was not interested in his dancebelts as I hadn’t done my first pro show then/was a superfan still/sort of not sure how close friends I was with everyone.

“But they’re clean. I’d never give you anything not-washed.”

Bless him so much. He could not see the comparison of like used underwear sales or anything and thought, “well superfan, cats collector… I have something no one else has!!!”

As for why I didn’t take it and sell it, I was not exploiting a friend, ever. Especially one who genuinely was thinking, “what could I give Mia besides luggage tags?” That’d have been wrong. It also had his name sewn into it (same as all actors) for their unders/washing.

Please no jumping on an actor for being gross, btw. The intent was SO kind although… oh no! Lol!

And again I’m not sharing which actor did NOT have a padded one because of his fiancé. I’m not sure they’d actually care but rather safe than sorry.

THE MORE YOU KNOW (even if you don’t want to).

Build your expectations Saturated and Inflated ('Cause I was born to be your Favorite)

When they were little girls, Lena and Andrea promised each other to fulfill their respective dreams of achieving fame in acting and music. What the sisters didn't expect was to also find love. Lena never thought she would form a friendship with and a crush on Kara Danvers, a Rolling Stone reporter who would come to tear down all the walls she built for fear of the pain and disappointment she has been living with for as long as she can remember. Only Kara and her sweetness are able to stand against the black cloud that surrounds Lena. Andrea hated pop with all her soul for being so plastic and soulless, as the eternal rivalry of metal and rock against commercial music has taught her. But Samantha Arias — the powerful, talented, beautiful, and enigmatic former StarGirls United member who is now her tourmate — makes Andrea eat her words as she steals Andrea's self-proclaimed rebellious, cold, and unattainable heart. Or: A "No Love in LA" SuperCorp and RojasArias AU.

Y/n Y/l/n and Harry Styles play Which One? with Pop Wizz!

hi loviessss <3 missed you so much!!! heres this little thingggg i came up with last night! i am SORRY its so short. something coming on xmas day maybe?? ok bye i love u happy holidays 😊

disclaimer: which one and pop wizz are both fragments of my imagination!! these games dont exist, copyrightedly at least, they do not exist!!!!!! i made these two things up. ok thank u enjoy

PART OF THE AND THEN SOME UNIVERSE BUT CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE

“Hi! I’m y/f/n,” She pauses, gesturing to her boyfriend sitting next to her.

“And I’m Harry Styles, and today we will be doing the Which One game with Pop Wizz!”

“He’s gonna be chatting a bunch of shit throughout this so don’t take his words to heart. I’m definitely the better one of us two!” She sends a light hearted disclaimer to the viewers, giggling at the sour face Harry sends her way.

“First question: who is the messier tour mate?” The interviewer asks. The couple immediately pop open their marker, scribbling across their tiny whiteboards.

“Right then, on three?” Harry nods. “One, two, three!”

They both flip their boards to first face each other, and then turning them to face the camera.

“I am not a messy tourmate!” Harry exclaims. She knows he’s right, she just put his name to save herself.

“Guys, don’t listen to her, she always throws her clothes and makeups and chapsticks everywhere!” Harry points a finger at her.

“Hey! I use Aquaphor!” She cries, setting her board on her lap.

“Whatever, we both know I’m right, so, one point for Harry!”

“Whatever. Next question, please.”

“Who loses more things while on tour?” The interviewer asks.

Y/n let’s out a snort, giggling to herself. They don’t count, but they give each other looks to confirm they’re both done writing before flipping their boards. Both of which read y/n.

“Okay, I admit, I have lost like— more things than I can even count on tour. I think I’ve had like 7 hydroflasks that I’ve lost! I just hate drinking from plastic bottles and so now I have this jug, you guys have definitely seen the jug, but I bring that with me everywhere. Harry loves it too! He has our names sprawled on the jug written in sharpie. But yeah, definitely me.” Harry nods along with her words, grabbing ahold of her hand while she’s talking and bringing it up to his lips.

“Aw, what a romantic!” Someone from behind the camera shouts.

“It’s a facade! He is not this nice to me! Matter of fact, he likes biting me.” She stops there, not seeing anything wrong with her statement. Harry whips his head over, a subtle pink rush of blood coating his cheeks.

“Shit! I didn’t mean it like that, I promise!” She whines in realization. Harry wraps his arms around her, squeezing her tightly to rid the embarrassment. “Nooooo, everyone g’na think ‘M a nympho.”

“No one’s gonna think you’re a nympho, m’heart. ‘S okay! Shit happens, whatever,” he pauses, sending a cheeky grin to the camera. “I do like biting, though.”

Y/n is now the one to blush.

“Next question, I’m begging.” Y/n pleads, looking around the studio for someone to speak.

“Who’s the bigger softie?” The kind lady behind the camera asks.

“Oh, pfft, is that even a question?” Y/n chuckles, quickly sprawling an answer on her board, harry doing the same.

“Okay, ready, set, go!” They both flip their boards, which unsurprisingly both read the boys name.

“H is the biggest softie I’ve ever met! Seriously, he cried during A Dolphins Tale! Like, literally sobbed in my arms. What a loser.” She lets out a belly laugh, forehead coming down to rest on her boyfriends shoulder as she tries to gain composure.

“Yeah yeah, whatever. A bully, is what you are.” He all but rolls his eyes playfully, leaning down to press a soft kiss against her hair.

They fly through the next few questions, getting into small banters when they disagreed with each others answers.

It’s obvious that they’re in love. Any bystander or viewer could see it. The way he looks at her adoringly, or the way she scrunches up her nose at him whenever he flashes a smile. They’re just simply young and in love, and everyone seems to adore that about them.

“Shit, well, that was— a bit too much fun. Thank you so much Pop Wizz for having us! Me and my tourmate are very thankful.” Y/n has tears in her eyes from laughing at the last question, hand now resting on the inside of Harry’s elbow.

“I’m Harry Styles, and this is Y/f/n, and you can see us at all North American tour dates of Love On Tour, and you can watch her new movie, Sweetener, on all streaming platforms and select movie theatres!” He grins, exhaling a long breath after his spiel.

“Great job babe, got all of our gigs right!” She smiles, pecking a kiss to his temple.

“See, she loves me. Alright, bye!”

IF YOU LIE DOWN WITH ME - JOHN FRUSCIANTE

john frusciante x reader!

warnings: VERY VERY BRIEF talk of smut, but besides that enjoy this fluff i wrote instead of working on finals <3 18+

“hey, you awake?”

you groaned in response. the crowd tonight in california was louder than usual. hometown show.

you were grateful for your fans, sure, but you’ve been left with a pounding headache that was not accompanied well when you take into account the four belligerent men you happened to share the tour bus with — not to mention the beers you pounded with chad right after the gig.

it was 2am and they’d finally started to settle down until john, the guitarist and the most reserved of the four, peeked into your little crevice of the bus, tapping on the wall to get your attention.

“my head hurts.” not even a yes or no reply, just unintelligble drivel into your pillow.

you heard him laugh, inching himself closer towards you and sitting down on the side of the pull-out bed.

“well, i thought you did great tonight.”

john told you this every night. since the beginning of the tour two months ago, without fail, he’d compliment you. in the past week, you started to notice that he’d began to compliment you more and more on your outfits. your eyes. your hair.

at this point you’ve turned to face john. even in the dark, you could still make out all of the features that have made you fall in love with him — like the fucking idiot you were.

similar to how john marveled at you, you couldn’t help but admire him right back — his dark eyes, his long, curly hair, and those fingers, always battered and bruised from his guitar playing.

“well, i’m opening for the best band in the world… i do my best.” you finally replied with half lidded eyes, giving him a smile and a tired thumbs-up.

all of a sudden, he grabbed your hand. this was new. he brought it to his cheek — also new. at this point, you sat upright, letting john’s hand drape over your own as you readjusted on the bed.

“you know i was the one who suggested you for the opening act?” he admitted, letting his thumb trace over your own hand.

“are you fucking with me?” you said.

“no, god no… i think you’re incredible. i know i tell you that all the time, but i’ll keep doing it. you have such a talent. jesus christ, everything about you …”

he trailed off, looking you up and down. his eyes were dilated, the size of the fucking moon. in that moment, the mood changed.

you smiled.

“— is just fucking incredible.”

he pulled you in, throwing his arms around you and pressing your lips together.

his lips tasted like cigarettes. yours tasted like cheap beer and you wished you’d have taken an aspirin before your tourmate was grabbing your head and running his fingers through your hair. as he worked his kisses down to your neck and bare shoulders, you felt your nipples harden as his hands worked their way towards your breasts.

“johnny?” you finally said, breaking the silence between your moans.

now slowly pressing kisses atop your sensitive breasts, he looked up at you.

“mmm?”

“how long have you wanted this?”

he took your face in his hands, gently pressing a kiss to your cheek.

“your song.”

“my song?”

“the night i met you. when i saw your show at the troubador and you played that cover of your song. you on stage with that guitar — no one’s ever looked more beautiful. that passionate.”

your foreheads pressed together.

you could feel john tense up after his confession. sweat beads dripped down his face and his hands, intertwined with yours, were trembling.

“do you want this?” he finally said.

you nodded. you wanted all of him. you’ve wanted him since the two of you had met.

and now those dark eyes? that long, curly hair, and those fingers, always battered and bruised from his guitar playing? they want you too.

you pulled yourself onto his lap. nestling against his shoulder, you whispered softly in his ear.

“john frusciante, you don’t know the fucking half of it.”

he relaxed.

“i’m all in. but for now, all i want is sleep.”

respecting your sudden wish to sleep off your headache — the beers you had surely weren’t helping it— he started to get up from the bed, but you grabbed his hand.

“wait. johnny, will you lie down with me?”

McKay is a “big part” of the ReAwaken America tour

McKay, who is also a QAnon conspiracy theorist, has begun to gain more prominence because of his featured speaking role on the ReAwaken America tour, which was founded by Clay Clark and Michael Flynn. The tour features QAnon and COVID-19 conspiracy theories; pro-Trump rhetoric; and Christian nationalism.

In addition to McKay, its “featured speakers” include Charlie Kirk, Kash Patel, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Peter Navarro, Mike Lindell, and Alex Jones. (Jones is scheduled to appear at the tour's Las Vegas stop in August; a poster of the event also includes McKay.) Donald Trump Jr. has also spoken on the tour. The tour’s best-known “featured speaker” is Eric Trump, who, along with McKay, most recently spoke in Nashville, Tennessee. McKay posted a picture of himself with Trump last year and wrote that he “says his Dad loves what we’re doing.”

“Eric's been there to a number of events I've spoken at, I've been right beside him a number of times,” McKay said last April. He went on to call his presence on the tour one a “validation” for him and “this movement.”

Blake Shelton Drops Cryptic Teaser: What's the 'DL' and 'EAR' All About? - Country Now

Blake Shelton sent his devoted fans into a frenzy on Wednesday morning when he shared what appears to be a tour teaser across his social media platforms. The cryptic clip included a neon sign that reads, “Back To The Honky Tonk Tour.” 

Is The “Ol’ Red” Singer Teasing A 2024 Tour With Dustin Lynch and Emily Ann Roberts?

The caption quoted Shelton’s 2015 chart-topper, “Neon Light” with the text: “There’s a neon light at the end of the tunnel…” It was soundtracked by his massive hit, “God’s Country.”    

Beneath the sign were two smaller signs that read “DL” and “EAR.” Those signs presumably signify Shelton’s tourmates, which could very likely be Dustin Lynch and his former Team Blake The Voice runner-up, Emily Ann Roberts. In fact, both artists quickly responded to Shelton’s cryptic teaser with eyeball emojis, adding even more speculation to the tour announcement.

Emily Robb - If I Am Misery Then Give Me Affection

Philly guitarist Emily Robb is back with another slab of unearthly (but also quite earthy somehow) six-string workouts. Robb's sometime tourmate Rosali Middleman recently released a great collection of electric guitar instrumentals under the Edsel Axle moniker and If I Am Misery is a perfect chaser. The pieces here take great pleasure in the simple essentials — pure volume, amp buzz, feedback, raw melodies. Robb is a master at coaxing unusual sounds from her axe, always going in unexpected directions, but still remaining deeply rooted to the source. While this is a solo album, it definitely rocks — like a VU bootleg or a vintage PSF LP. Don't forget to boogie.

Re: pee discussion! One of my tourmates just brought up how Fergie infamously peed her pants on stage once

[colorisbyshe]

also shout out to the emo/pop punk scene for also inventing the concept of probably actually gay/bisexual people gaybaiting. like to this day i don’t know how many of the band members actually meant it in a gay way but in many ways... it doesn’t matter. they were out there kissing bandmates and tourmates and doing Gay Things and they knew it would sell and it DID and it was very fun for me at age 13. thank you gaybait soldiers. thank you even more to the sincerely gay soldiers. but honestly i think that is a heavily overlapping circle.

[turbofhag]

the fact that 3/5 of them at least are wearing shirts of their current tourmates

[sethshead]

Trump himself hailed in a tweet these ReAwaken America rallies that included McKay and Charlie Ward as speakers.

At least they’re honest about whose side they’re on.

Jimmy Eat World at the Skyline Stage 8/26/23

Another end of the tour show. Best vibes for sure! I had been checking set lists (of course) and there were two that were being played and we got this one.

Jimmy Eat World

Skyline Stage at the Mann

Philadelphia PA

8/26/23

Pain

Just Tonight...

Sweetness

Something Loud

For Me This Is Heaven

Kill

Dizzy

555

Lucky Denver Mint

Big Casino

A Praise Chorus

Hear You Me

Blister

Work

23

Bleed American

The Middle

Very bold to start out with "Pain" if you ask me! Jim was very talkative (even saying he was gonna tone it down tonight. No Jim, don't tone it down, talk all you want!) Like for "Something Loud", he said it was about finding yourself in Rock and Roll. He had effusive praise for tourmates Middle Kids (who were great) and Manchester Orchestra (who played next as they were swapping headlining all tour.) As usual lots of 1-2 punches. "For Me This is Heaven" into "Kill" which happen to be my two fave songs by them as well as "Praise Chorus"/"Hear You Me" and of of course the set ending "Bleed American"/"The Middle".

A thoroughly enjoyable set on a beautiful night in Philly.
