Shaliene Woodley does a great job in The Secret Life of the American Teenager of being a teen girl who is under a ton of stress because of a ton of life issues. Like parents are having marriage issues, she pregnant, the whole school is crazy. Like sooo many issues and it makes me care greatly for the amount of girls who went through, are going through and will go through teen pregnancies. And in light of the turn over of Roe v Wade there are going to be even more teen girls and women all over.

It remembered a sterile white environment. Guided by hands that were sometimes gentle, and sometimes rough, but always careful. It remembered pain when it failed, but reward when it succeeded. It remembered routine. It remembered safety and it remembered home.

But this was not home. This was not sterile white and it was not safety and there were no hands guiding it and there was no pain or reward.

It was just it. And it didn’t like that. It didn’t like the broken glass of its pod, or the unfamiliar sounds and smells. And it didn’t like that no one was answering its cries.

In the lab when it cried someone was always there to show it what to do.

But here- was someone here. There were many someones here.

Its head, blank of features, snapped towards the sound. It listened, and realized that yes, those many someones and those many someones were coming closer.

Its head snapped around, scanning the environment before it tumbled forward and morphed, body changing in shape and color and texture until it looked like something that was unassuming.

It was something hard and cold and greyish and it was in a pile with a bunch of other hard and greyish things.

“Are you telling me it’s already gone?”

“Yes sir. There doesn’t seem to be any form of life around.”

“It landed less than a few minutes ago! How could it already of disappeared!”

“If it took off running as soon as it could, sir, then it’s possible it could have gone a long distance. We don’t know what was supposed to be in this thing.”

“Well scan the area again! And get me anything you can from that pod to tell me what we might be dealing with here!”

“Yes sir General Steel!”

I'm sad. Shaliene Woodley and Jaime Dornan did the Wired Autocomplete Interview for Endings Beginnings, but Sebastian didn't :/ Here's a link. I haven't watched it yet, so I don't know if they mention him at all: youtube(.)com/watch?v=hyPbvMD1D0E

I have been slammed with work so I haven't had a chance to watch it. Still playing catch up.

-Bory #6 (unicorn) (fancy fantasy something?)

-Bory #5 (dreaming) (replacement; something seer-ish)

-Souji (replace for scuffing as close to same as possible)

who needs a body?

-Bory #6 (if anyone sees a KDF Poseidon body FS - the one w/hooves - lmk, haha)

-Floating Head #[?] (FL motion-line (NS) asap as soon as convenient) (is he a new Cedar Gate character? is he Mitsie 12? who knows)

who needs a meaningful style overhaul?

-Arcady (in progress) (note to self: match Valere)

-Bory #5 (faceup first?)

-Suna (Bory #4, lol, all the Borys need help except Aristide)

-Remington (props)

-Kacian and Theophile can’t live in those kigus forever

-I never finished those outfits for Nerai and Finael

-anyway I have vague outfit additions outlined for too many dolls

-either sell or redo my April Story Anthony (-> Heathering?)

who needs some serious photos?

-Remington, Harry, and Leander; Remington and Nightshade and/or Josephine

-Klaus & Baharoth (w/Khufu I guess)

-will it ever be spring

new doll planning shortlist:

-Amiel (Rhevain’s +1) (a big Iplehouse guy??? one of the smile-y ones)

-Marlies (Shae’s +1) (I was thinking tan but there’s a v tempting NS doll on the MP ><)

-Zetherain’s “friend” group (he’d tell you he doesn’t have friends):

-> Kinselyn (+3 Lilineth Baranoc Elissavet) (she’ll be tan and slinky, idk)

-> Mitsiades the 12th (+cat) (miiight end up using Floating Head #[?])

-> BIG dragon (that Nebo I’m so tempted by)

-> not Perstiven b/c even though he’s plot-critical I hate him

(new doll planning long-list: the two KDF Yul variants I don’t have, Rifon’s cousins Zique and Amarain and/or Devain’s best friends Kylie and Juline and/or Erue’s sister Tirelle, a Volks Michele head to replace Shae, Nightshade’s ex Crimson, Fheonore’s foil Rikita, Harry’s cousin Edolie, a Smartdoll (if that mannequin one ever gets released! :o) and/or a DD Emilia)

will i do any of this? only time will tell

What’s ur opinion on rumors that Shaliene and Seb will start dating? 😰

I will try to share my stance on this situation in general- pls note at the end of the day I’m literally no one important when it comes to topics like this. none of us are. But since I was asked specifically for my opinion-

I'll say I think it’s unlikely the rumors hold water (a quick google search shows she’s been off the market for awhile btw) Would I care if they got together? Nah. It wouldn’t make a diff in my life AT ALL. certain fans just have conniption fits at the idea of him being w someone. Which is wild bc it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize he hasn’t been goin w/out. He’s an attractive, wealthy, middle aged man. Find it v hard to believe he’s single single lol. Celebs can have relationships or romantic setups that they don’t make public info for years, if ever. And that’s totally their right. it’s not their responsibility to announce that kinda news. they don’t owe us updates/changes to that sorta stuff. And like, even if those two did get together I truly don’t believe it should be any fan’s beeswax or place to speak on it. personally, idc how fans feel abt it. we should all agree to chill out a lot more. lmao. Hell, I don’t even like having an opinion myself I feel cringe af rn. Our opinions regarding HIS love life are meaningless. As long as no one is being abused, everyone is consenting, and of age- no one else should care. 

I also don’t like it when ppl “ship” real life actors w one another. It feels idk awkward. Fans going bananas and wanting the two real life actors to kiss/flirt/be together irl (not just in the show/movie) for the fans’ enjoyment isn’t something i wanna take part in. gives us a bad rep the way some will overanalyze/dissect all the so-called “hints” at two celebs being together. 

also v unsettling to see comments from ppl who can recount his whole relationship history and speak abt his exes as if they have firsthand knowledge and experienced it with him.

The BJD Wishlist Game!

@nadeestar‘s game!  sounds fun let’s do it

Hey All! This is a game where you take your dolls from your wishlist to answer the questions! Have fun!

The Grail: Volks Michele

The Most Expensive: probably still Volks Michele

The Least Expensive: a Withdoll MSD boy... I just never get around to choosing and ordering one

The one you never thought you’d like: guess what, it’s Volks Michele again.  Super not into him when I first saw pics.

The one that has been there the longest: Doll Chateau Charles; ultimately I think he wouldn’t fit in, though ><

The Largest: Spiritdoll Vine or Campsis.  I would also be all over a male Trinity Doll, if Dollmore ever does that.

The smallest: Cuartosdolls Darkhorn, the only exception to my realization that I’m not into animals or 1/6.

The weirdest: nothing super exotic, tbh; I’m interested in Doll Chateau and Serenade Doll, but they wouldn’t fit in as characters, really, and I don’t do well with girls so Serenade Doll is pretty much out.  I don’t even like too many fantasy skin tones.

The dreamiest: A Switch boy in their pale white? v dreamy I would say

The Priority: Swandoll Oscar head 

The Complete list:

I kind of pick sculpts on whim for existing OCs (and I’m trying not to get any more non-character dolls), so my wishlist is spotty, but here’s what I know

Swandoll Oscar head (Erue)

Dollstown 15 yrs Boy body for that Swandoll Oscar head

MNF bodies x2 (for the event heads I want to use as my Cedar Gate story princes Cayne and Miloth, although I may try to hybrid one or both of them for variety’s sake)

Volks Michele (!) preferably on the most updated SD10 boy body with the double-jointed elbows (reshell Shae)

Spiritdoll Vine or Campsis (no character)

Doll Chateau Charles (that body with all the extra joints) (I’ll probably never get him) (no character)

whatever Switch’s next Pale White release is (Shalien)

a Withdoll MSD boy (probably for Arcady)

Cuartosdolls Darkhorn (dark grey or black as a companion for Zetherain)

Iplehouse Chase/Claude/a SID or EID that’s not too grumpy (Marlies/Amiel)

Sweetgale Cyril (...another... soft open-mouthed boy... what pattern...)  (no character; I’ve got some options though)

Dollshe Fashion p4 with all the extra joints (another doll that probably just wouldn’t fit in) (no character)
