Visions of Heat review:

Picking up your partner’s erotic thoughts, and only those, is both funny and kinda hot. I’d forgotten Vaughn was an artist/sculpter, and his lair is pretty awesome, although I don’t know how comfortable I’d be coming home everyday and having to navigate a literal minefield correctly to get inside. Vaughn’s sob story is, for me, the most heartbreaking in a series full of terribly sad stories. I do like a romance that has to go slow, involve seduction, and I like how he both respects and *expects* her strength, but much as I like them both individually this isn’t the hottest couple. Also, two showers together and no hanky panky there either time? Lack of imagination, Vaughn!

Number of showers:

Vaughn: 3

Faith: 4

Rating: one long cold shower

lesbians who are just off the rails crazy insane... very dear to me

[defenestrationtactics]

nah cause why does hbh s2 instantly start off by saying ‘hey. hey gang. remember ant likes women right? he loves women’ and then the rest of the season there is NO mention of the plot line from last season where he got ?outed?? to his mum and forced to go to church more often. there’s almost so much effort to erase that from our minds that i’m thinking they might be brewing something. maybe. or i’m just silly and seeing patterns where there are none. anyways

Faith Vaughn for Tanner Fletcher, Spring 2023

[painandmovies]

Sorry to those of you who are misinformed but despite what the show says Malakai did not gaslight Amerie. This show's cringe a$s lines are generally nothing to take too seriously, but some of you do not know what that word means. Say he wasn't perfect, but what Malakai did was not gaslighting and it's clear that none of you have actually been gaslit if you think anyone treating you badly is them gaslighting you like it's a common descriptive verb. In season 1, I thought this show generally used teen-cringe language to be tongue-in-cheek, but words like narcissistic (s1) and gaslight are not just used as synonymous with lying and being a jerk.

closed starter for @faithrite

"Hey! Look who the cat dragged in." Vaughn already had a few beers in him during his set and was just finishing off packing up after his job. "Alright, sunshine? Didn't think you were coming tonight." He gestured for them to sit at the booth as he opened up a beer and handed it over.

Don't use rational thought as a defense with me, not after all you and I have seen. Vaughn, you and I live and breathe madness every day on the job...there is no...rational thought! I can't even pretend to have a conversation about anything else with you. What it comes down to is faith.

I Don't Have To Do a Damn Thing!

Veroinca: You looked so handsome walking across that stage. I think Grams was about to cry

Vaughn: Probably, she's sensitive.

The guilt is eating away at Vaughn, he knows he needs to talk to Veronica but he can never seem to find the time. "Sweetheart we should talk somewhere private"

Veroinca: Right now? I wanted to find my parents

Vaughn: I would prefer the sooner the better

Veroinca: You look so serious! Let's meet my parents real quick then we can talk

Vaughn: Your parents already know me, sweetheart

Veronica: This is different!! Let's go!

Veronica pulls Vaughn along while scanning the crowd for her parents. Vaughn on the other hand is a bundle of nerves.

Veroinca: I found them! Dad! Mom! I've been looking for you everywhere. I wanted to introduce Vaughn Leary! My boyfriend. Vaughn my parents

Vaughn: Nice to see you again in better circumstances Mr and Mrs Reeves

Blair: Oh! Xavier speaks so highly of you. I'm happy to hear you and Veronica get along so well. She can bit of a handful, I hope you can manage

Vaughn: Don't worry. I'm able to handle

Brayden: I hear your grandma and cousin were at your graduation? We should have dinner together

Vaughn: I would love that. I'll set up a date. They continue to mingle and set up plans for the summer.

The conversation ends Vaughn and Veroinca find themselves sitting at a secluded booth. Finally, some quiet time. It may not be the best place but it's better to rip the bandage off and beg forgiveness than have Veronica find out from a different source.

Vaughn: Veronica, we need to talk

Veroinca: You're using my name? Are you going to break up with me?

Vaughn: Never.

Before Vaughn can continue a call cuts him off. It's an important call he couldn't ignore "Hold on for me Princess I'll be right back"

Veroinca: Let's leave after, it's getting boring

Vaughn: Sure, we'll go back to my Gram's place. I'll make us something to eat

Veronica waits patiently then begins to notice more stares aimed are being aimed at her. The whispers start to get louder and people start to point. It's hard to ignore until she receives a notification on her phone and her world gets quiet

___________________________________________________________

Gossip Girl Blast

Vaughn, notorious for his string of short-lived romances and his inability to stay faithful, seems to be reverting to his old ways. Sources say he's only interested in Veronica for one thing – to add another notch to his bedpost

XOXO, Gossip Girl

___________________________________________________________

Vaughn arrives back at the main hall and notices the whispers and the stares. His heart drops as he finds Veronica where he left her. Phone in her hand gripping it tight. "Princess?"

Veronica: Is it true?"

He knows what she is asking but he doesn't want to answer. Fucking hell.

Veroinca: I don't even know why I'm asking you. Of course its true...I should have known you weren't serious. How many times were you going to fuck me before you got bored

Vaughn is quiet, he can't lie anymore not at this critical moment "I'm sorry. I wanted to tell you" Veronica lets out a shaky laugh "Wanted to tell me? Tell me what? that I was just some conquest?"

Vaughn: Baby, Veronica please we can talk about this. Right now what I feel for you is real. I meant what I said about being the man you deserve

Veroinca: Why should I believe you! I thought...you really liked me...I thought that...we wer-"

Veroinca is choking back on her tears, losing her train of thought. Malcolm warned her so many times. Why didn't she listen? Now everyone in SanMy sees her as another fucking conquest.

Vaughn: Veronica. I'm begging, please. You have to know I love you and I'm sorry. I was dumb then but I know better now.

Veroinca: You love me? Are you insane?? You don't know what that is!

Vaughn: Please...just believe me

Veronica: I don't have to do a damn thing!

Vaughn is in shambles his worst nightmare is coming true and he can't do anything to wake up from the terror. He tries to approach Veroinca, hug her, touch her hands, something to ease her pain but she slaps him away. "Don't you ever touch me again Whatever this is. It's over"

Vaughn watches Veronica walk past him and runs straight into her mother's arm. He can see her shoulders shake from her tears. Standing there Vaughn feels his world begin to crumble around him. He finally found something good and he fucking ruined it. How can he ever fix this?

Faith Vaughn at Sandy Liang, Spring 2023

[dizzymoods]

of course being a radical communist islamist marxist infidel i do have #thots but Bassem Youssef on the Theo Vaughn show was really good.

in my experience, talking to lay people about politics plainly and simply is very effective. Getting people to a place of neutrality is a heavy lift. Is it ideal? No. But is it better than them being ideologically invested in empire, reflexively zionist, or (feigning) apathy? Sure.

And I know im ornery on #here but it's to ppl who are ideologically aligned with empire or being willfully ignorant. I'm quite patient with people who may ask leading, regurgitated bad faith questions in pursuit of clarity. Super easy to spot the difference. And as a recipient of several people's patience on issues, I know how long that goes.

The clarity, ~*humanity*~, humor, grace, and facts that Bassem displayed was admirable. Like motherfucker would set up a joke, drop a fact, tell the fact checker which article from which publication from which year he got it from, then drop the punchline.

And while I have more #thots on Vaughn's interview with a zionist (which i couldn't finish), the comment section was surprising. Overwhelmingly the people noticed how this guy was appealing to authority, religion, and emotion. Speaking generally and with PR voice. Compared to Bassem who was clearly biased, but upfront about that and matter of fact about everything.

The disparity of view count is crazy. 1mill for Bassem; 166k for the zionist.

Idk Theo from nobody. he's very clearly not knowledgeable and actually quite dumb (affectionate) and I think that works well for the Palestinian case (NOT so much for the zionist interview). Confusing Blinken for the israeli sec of state for example proved Bassem's point about how our politicians work on behalf of israeli interest which is of course ours. Mistaking hezbollah for hasbulla is just comedy gold. But it speaks to what happens when someone is really a blank slate and is asking questions genuinely; not gatchas or with agenda. It's a rare look at how clean the Palestinian cause is.

Now im not naive and don't think this is going to result in new recruits to The AQB (American Qassam Brigades) — of which mr. nsa I am most assuredly not a part of!— nor members of the uncommitted movement. But such a conversation and response from an audience was unthinkable even during the Great March of Return. This was a weather vane moment. and one that bodes well for us.

PROS

A great listener. Will always hear you out and always take the time to be there for you and lend a helpful ear.

Has a contagious laugh, any chance you have to hear it, it is a gift.

Very faithful, and very committed. Once you're his, you're his.

Will sing to you when you're feeling down. A man with an amazing voice, and knows exactly what to do with it.

Will always be there for you and never leave you on your bad days. As someone who has been through a lot himself, you will always have him to be by your side through your worst days.

Is extremely active in the bedroom, is up for trying just about anything, and has a voice to go with it ;)

Will fight for you to the death.

CONS

Cries a lot. [?con?]

Has frequent panic attacks he cannot control.

Has night terrors on occasion that will most certainly wake you up in the middle of the night.

Is an overthinker, will always wonder if you love him if you will leave him, often needs reassurance.

EXTRAS

Vaughn is terrible at using guns, however he is a knife expert and also is very good at using a katana.

A coffee & redbull addict. You will find either in his hand throughout the entire day.

Vaughn is a smoker, especially when in the badlands, a cig is almost mandatory.

He loves working out, and by working out he means taking long walks out in the desert, will walk miles, it's his stress reliever.

Always smells very good, even when being out all day. He most likely smells of nature, fresh grass, rain water, and old spice.

Even though he is fairly active outside, and does a lot of merc work, you can also find him sleeping a lot. One thing about Vaughn, he's gonna sleep every chance he gets.

A huge cuddle bug, be prepared for tons of snuggles and kisses and cuddles whenever you're laying in bed together, he enjoys touch and skin on skin contact.

An incredibly gifted netrunner, someone Alt Cunningham would be very jealous of.

Additional propaganda:

An additional first date to your local coffee vendor, on him ;)
