That's it. Disventure Camp All Stars is doomed! There's nothing that could save this season. Connor is out, and Riya is in the finale again, the worst final 3 overall.
Trevek's kiss was the only good thing in this episode. However, I am not really Into them being together anymore because they didn't have a buildup outside of Trevor's feelings and I genuinely dislike Derek. I wish we could spend more time with them in season 1 like we did with Kristal in season 2 because I don't believe in their friendship. I wanna know how or why they decided to be the hosts and why Derek was so desperate to let Jensen do the dirty work so they could run the show. Hell, I just wanna know who they are and how they met! Speaking of Jensen where's he?! I thought he would be the final boss or something like in season one.
I am not excited for the finale and ether for season 4. I guess I might do a post where I discuss all the flaws of all stars after the finale, but honestly? I have no motivation. Because this show doesn't give me the same emotions it used to.

Imagine it: It's the 5th of November, 2024 and it's election day in the US. While everyone is waiting with bated breath for the election results, Jensen Ackles, (in)famous supernatural actor, releases the tapes (unedited recordings of Castiel's confession scene made with Jensen's phone). At the same Vladimir Putin drops dead from sudden failure of body that just couldn't take all the evilness anymore. Everyone is rejoicing when, suddenly, Steven Moffat appears on TV in all countries and announces Sherlock season 5. Furthermore King Charles abolishes the monarchy on a whim, the pope twerks and the mystery of the Mary Celeste is solved once and for all. While you're processing this information, you remember the ongoing election and learn that Georgia has just turned blue and Kamala Harris is president of the United States. Now, if you can picture all this in your mind, exponentially amplify the feelings you have right now and then you might even get close to feeling what everyone was feeling on DestielPutinElectionDay, November 5th, 2020.

Hello again! (Warning, long rant again)
I'm basically making my own dc au for fun (I have too many writing projects to make another rn)
Adding onto what I created on Tom and Jensen, I wanna switch some of the characters with different ones for All Stars. This is now my au of an okay show plot
I wanna add only two characters, Drew (cause I love him and more details later), and Rosa (also explained later) and remove Miriam and Lake (I'm sorry but it's for reason and I wanna give other characters a chance to win)
The reason why I chose Drew and Rosa for All Stars is for two reasons, Fiore and common sense. For Drew, he's an underused contestant that's gone too early (honestly, glad he wasn't picked for all stars cause it kinda flopped after episode 5) but one thing that stands out about him that not a lot of the fandom bothered to notice is that Drew is a constant supporter of Fiore.
One: He probably voted for someone else (like maybe Miriam or Tom) in episode 1, and he was shocked that Fiore was voted out. Also, at the finale where Fiore was already exposed at a villain, Drew was seen at Fiore's stand despite everything, so a Drew and Fiore dynamic would be perfect because Fiore gets bullied way too much by both her teammates and the writing.
And while she does deserve some of the anger they feel towards her, you have to remember that she's just a 6-8 year old (No, I'm not excusing her actions they were bad, but there's a reason why she's this way. Monsters aren't born, they're made), so having someone who seen her at her worst and yet still cares about her would probably make Fiore realize that she's not a heartless monster like what her mom said, she's capable of love like everyone else.
Rosa is also picked for a similar reason, like Drew, while Rosa did watch DC season 1 and saw how Fiore was acting like a jerk she never really liked her first but later into watching the other half of the season she saw a bit of her daughter in Fiore if certain things happened. So when she joined All Stars, she saw the chance to help the self-proclaimed 'monster' of the Disventure Camp.
Let me tell you, if someone has been told by a bunch that they're the worst and many hateful words at a young age, gains a support system and teaches them how to truly love with time it would do wonders.
(Also, I want Rosa to adopt Fiore after the show is over. (Dis)respectfully, I don't trust Alec around kids based on the few mentions about his treatment towards his own kid)
Now, for Tom, his spy background is what made me like him back in the first season 'cuase I'm a sucker for anything spy-related. But like with any cool plotline, ONC fumbled his background just for what? Petty drama and a relationship that probably wouldn't be the best in reality.
Maybe he gets trauma from getting tortured by the enemy after being left behind on a dangerous mission by his teammates and friends he trusted (make Tom fucked up looking like the Creature from Frankenstein) and scars similar to the Phantom's eye scar and have half of his mouth exposed (just have the right side be messed up 👍🏽) Make him a recluse that learns to accept help from others along with trauma bonding with Jake (trust issues gang fr)
For the last part, Jensen. The mystery man himself: Why is he working on a reality TV show where his face could be revealed with the FBI? What did he do for the police and FBI hunting him down, and what does he gain during his stay at Disventure Camp?
Now, let's imagine this: Jensen used to be a part of this huge crime ring that he, originally named Vladimir, ruled with an iron fist. But someone snitched on the gang, and the police took down most of the gang members except Vladimir. Now, with nothing but posters asking people to look out for him, Vladimir needed to get back on top, so when he saw a sheet asking for help on a new reality show out in the middle of no where Vladimir took the job.
He changed his looks (his hair was black, but he dyed it gray to look older, covered the tattoo on his neck and blinded his left eye), and gained a new (fake) ID and changed his name to Jensen. After being hired by Derek and Trevor, he started his plan to restart his empire by selling the animal corpses he kills by the order of Derek and Trevor (He may have killed some interns and framed it as bear attacks)
When season 1 started and Tom joined (He was forced to take the job after the trouble with his teammates betraying him and his boss on their last straw at Tom), Jensen sensed something odd about him. Sneaking a peek at his bags while the players are at the challenge, Jensen finds out that Tom's a spy looking for him, so he creates a plan to make sure Tom will never catch him.
So that's what I have for now, I might come back with more later. Thank you for reading and gn/gm!

☀️THE SLAY PASS GETS USED☀️ - Total Drama Viewer Reacts to Disventure Camp Season 1 Episode 13 “A Heart's Desire” PART 2
<<Link To Part 1
Let's continue.
"I guess I should congratulate you two... alright moving on."
XD
Come on, I think Miriam deserves a round of applause for that performance.
"But I don't know how to drive!"
...you sure about that?
Oh you asshole.
...wait, how do you know whose kart is supposed to be who's?
You could've sabotaged Fiore!
OH MY GOD TOM YOU'VE REDEEMED YOURSELF
WAIT A MINUTE...
OH MY GOD THAT'S A BRILLIANT CALLBACK.
KARMA'S A BITCH
So Miriam's gotta win now. There's no way.
...wait Tom might've committed child murder with this.
Eh, add that to his body count in VR.
OH NO NOT THE MOOSE
I'M SORRY BUDDY
OH SHIT HERE WE GO
I hope Tom doesn't get arrested for this.
OOOOOHHHH COME ON MIRIAM
YOU GOT THIS
OH GEEZ DON'T RAM HER
...
Actually, yeah, RAM HER. What am I saying?!
COME ON MIRIAM
"NO NO NO! I WILL NOT LOSE HERE!! NOT AFTER EVERYTHING!!! MOVE YOU STUPID-"
OH GEEZ
UM....
IS SHE ALIVE?!
I don't necessarily care about Fiore's well being, I just don't want Tom to go to jail for child murder.
DON'T TELL ME THIS BLOW GETS HER TO PASS MIRIAM AND WIN
IS THIS A VILLAIN WIN?!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-
OH THANK GOD.
...
I MEAN, IT'S BAD THAT SHE CRASHED IN FIRE, BUT THANK GOD SHE DIDN'T CROSS THE FINISH LINE...
God, I'm gonna have the police at my door now.
MIRIAM WON!!🎉
Deserved, honestly. That's a winner I can get behind.
At least she's alive...
I think Tom's going to jail, though.
"Uh, hello? Is someone gonna help me?"
"Help yourself."
DAMN.
THAT'S COLD.
DUDE, SHE JUST GOT IN A CAR CRASH AND YOU'RE GONNA TELL HER TO HELP HERSELF?!
I'm so conflicted right now. Do I pity Fiore? Do I not?? I don't know...
"AAAAAHHHH! I HATE THEM I HATE THEM I HATE THEM!! DAMN JERKS, I HOPE THEY ALL DIE!!"
Demon Child is gonna haunt everyone in their sleep.
*Gets coffee creamer ad*
OMG AGAIN?!
Fiore joins Jake at the coffee shop of depression XD
"Aren't you a little young for coffee?"
"MOVE OVER AND GIVE ME YOUR CREAM!"
"Yes Queen" XD
YES QUEEN!!!
*sirens*
Oh no XD
"TOM, YOU ARE UNDER ARREST FOR ATTEMPTED CHILD MURDER"
"Vladimir Jensen, Trevor Mcgregor, and Derek Johnson. You are al under arrest for wildlife damage, destruction of protected property, and illegal deforestation."
OH.
OH I FORGOT ABOUT THAT.
THE COPS ARE DOING THEIR JOB.
"Well they really took their time, didn't they?"
I bet Tom is the kind of guy to say "COPS SUCK. OMG THEY'RE SO IMPOSSIBLE."
OH SHIT-
OH SHIT HE'S GOT A GUN
WELL THIS ESCALATED QUICKLY
"This is for killing the animals!"
😨
GABBY YOU CAN'T JUST DO THAT-
😂
YES QUEEN!!! SLAY!!!!!!
NOOOO COME ON!!!!
COME ON DON'T PULL A HEATHER TO MIRIAM!
OH TOM'S GOING AFTER THEM HE'S GOT A HOOK IDK WHERE HE GOT THAT FROM THINGS ARE HAPPENING SO FAST RIGHT NOW-
OH GOD HE'S FIGHTING
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING ANYMORE
TOM DON'T DIE
OH NO
WAIT DID THEY DIE?!?!?!?!
OH MY GOD...
PLEASE DON'T TELL ME TOM DIED.
*cuts to black*
OH MY GOD...
What just happened?!?!
DID TOM DIE?!?!?!
'I think they died, what do we do?'
Oh my god no... THAT WAS TOO FAST.
"Where's Tom? Is he okay?!"
OH JAKE NO
This is why Jake's horrible in Season 3.
He doesn't even get to make amends with Tom because Tom DIED.
They ended things on awful terms and then he died...
"Surely he's dead."
FUCK YOU FIORE. GO GET IN ANOTHER CAR CRASH.
OH THANK YOU. HE'S OKAY.
"What happened?"
"I got on the bus. It lost control and I managed to jump just before it went off the cliff."
What about the other dude? DID HE DIE?!
TOM DID YOU KILL A MAN?!
AGAIN?
At least Miriam got her money.
But I think she's gonna have to bail Tom out of prison for killing several people, attempting to kill a child, threatening a child at gunpoint that one time, battery for cutting off Ellie's arm, and being a spy.
"After I gave them info about these crooked TV hosts and Jensen, they decided to hire me."
...wait what?
"I hope to be a better officer than a spy."
WAIT YOU'RE A COP NOW?!?! WHAT?!?!?!
How did that happen!? I'm pretty sure that's not how that works!
Oh my god, Tom is a cop... I don't feel safe now.
I feel like Tom would be the bad cop, as we've established XD
"See, EVERYTHING is legal for me! I can get a kid in a car crash and kill a man A-Okay! BECAUSE I'M A COP!!"
And just flash his badge everywhere.
Aw, they're friends. That's sweet.
Oh Jake...
"I'm glad you're okay, Tom. Sorry, I just thought you didn't want to talk to me."
Oh he actually is talking. Okay?
"It's okay... I think everything happens for a reason."
"What do you mean?"
"We were both fools, Jake. I know I was harsh with you and the truth is... I'm not innocent in this. We both acted impulsively. We made mistakes. But I don't regret it. You helped me learn from those mistakes."
Awwwww don't do this to me 💗
"Will you still talk to me?"
Imagine if he said NO.
"Nah, fuck you. Bye. Gonna go live it up in the cop world now!"
"I think we should take some time and grow as people."
Oh he actually DID say no... oh...
So they're distancing themselves from each other?
Not saying that's a bad idea, but damn.
"We'll see where we are later on."
In Season 3 I guess, if they are keeping distance.
"I agree... no matter what, I'm glad I met you Tom."
💗
OH COME ON DON'T DO THAT TO ME 💗
You know what? GOOD. GOOD FOR YOU FOR CHOOSING THE DISTANCE ROUTE. Y'ALL GO WALLOW IN ISCOLATION. YOU DON'T DESERVE EACH OTHER. I DON'T CARE. I DON'T SHIP THIS. NOPE. NOPE. MM MM. NO I DON'T.
YOU HAVE NO PROOF I SHIP THIS. YOU DON'T.
(Edit: Uh, Golden? Your reactions say otherwise... people are gonna bully you for this)
I have entered my denial stage of grief. Good lord.
If this is followed up by me going through the five stages of grief, good lord, I don't want to be on this ship anymore...
Who are you???
"What happened to Jensen?"
"No one knows. They never found a body."
So he's not dead???
"How'd they let you run another season after this?"
Oh wait cause the old hosts got arrested, this is the new host. GOTCHA.
"What selection?"
"For the next season, duh."
Bring on the Season 2 cast.
"We need to decide the participants for All Stars."
Wait what? What about Season 2?
Does this take place AFTER Season 2??? Huh??? I am confusion.
...
And that's how it ends. Okay.
That was Season 1! We finished it!
That was... a lot. I can't even wrap my head around it.
I really enjoyed reacting to this. I'm glad I did too.
I'm definitely going to make a tier list after this. Thank you guys for supporting my reactions.
Like I said, this really does feel like a new era for my blog, and that's... insane to think about.
You know what?
I wasn't subbed before XD
Now I am.
I like supporting indie productions, what can I say?
I do hope at least some of my followers, you know, take some sort of interest in this too. I can't promise this will work for everyone. Hell, it's got problems. I can't ignore that. But um...
WHOOPS. I'M OBSESSED.
I FEEL MY TOTAL DRAMA PHASE RETURNING GUYS.
So... yeah, I'm gonna react to Season 2 & 3 as well. Yay.
I salute everyone that worked on this show. With Hollywood and major corporations dragging artistic freedom and expression through the mud, you showcase with your efforts that there IS hope for animation. You're inspirations for people to make what they want and not be held back.
Regardless on how you feel about this show, you have to hand it to these producers for pushing boundaries like this. Not a lot of people have the guts to do what they do.
Anyway... that's it from me with this season. You can probably expect some more Disventure Camp posts from me in the future. Bye!

top 5 books?
GREAT one to start off with. very difficult!
the history of love by nicole krauss is the first one that came to mind because i think it was the first "adult" book i ever read that really, truly captured me. i got on my annoying annotation game and highlighted one copy so badly i had to get another copy just to be able to re-read. i haven't revisited in many years but there are still certain lines that i can remember with perfect clarity.
the secret history by donna tartt is similar in that i read it in college and was like Wow. This Is Literature. it has just about everything i like in a book --annoying characters: check. murder: check. batshit dynamics: check.
gone with the wind by margaret mitchell is probably pound for pound my favorite book of all time, even at its most grotesque and horrendous. it is obviously a racist book written by a racist woman and simultaneously scarlett is the most fascinating character of all time To Me. like most annoying idiotic fictional woman ever and i'm also rooting for her bad. i also am very into a long as fuck narrative about the worst people of all time.
lolita by vladimir nabokov is another pick where it's like yeah obvious tumblrina pick but unfortunately nabokov is a master and lolita is a masterwork and it's not my fault.
we the drowned by carsten jensen, which is the newest read on the list and i've only read it once but it was long as fuck (love) and a huge sprawling narrative (love) and it was about men on boats (love).

Daily Wrap Up December 22, 2022
(Starting tomorrow, December 23, I will be traveling to spend time with family for Christmas, so updates will be irregular until the middle of next week. Have a safe and Happy Holidays!)
Under the cut:
The Wagner Group, the Russian mercenary group answerable to Vladimir Putin, took delivery of an arms shipment from North Korea to help bolster Moscow’s forces in Ukraine, according to the US.
A former Russian deputy prime minister and a pro-Moscow official were injured when Ukrainian forces shelled the eastern city of Donetsk on Wednesday, Russian news agencies said.
The U.S. Senate on Dec. 22 approved an amendment allowing the transfer of seized assets belonging to Russian oligarchs to the people of Ukraine, CNN reported.
Denmark has allocated more than $42 million (DKK 300 million) of additional military aid for Ukraine, according to the country’s Defense Ministry. “Ukraine’s fight for freedom is also our and Europe’s fight for freedom…The government will continue to support Ukrainians in the financial, military, and humanitarian spheres,” said the minister Jakob Ellemann-Jensen.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky delivered a historic speech from the United States Capitol Wednesday night, expressing gratitude for American support in fighting Russian aggression since the war began – and asking for more.
“The Wagner Group, the Russian mercenary group answerable to Vladimir Putin, took delivery of an arms shipment from North Korea to help bolster Moscow’s forces in Ukraine, according to the US.
The US assessment, reported by Reuters and then confirmed by national security council spokesperson John Kirby, suggests the Wagner Group’s expanding role in Russia’s war in Ukraine.
The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters:
We can confirm that North Korea has completed an initial arms delivery to Wagner, which paid for the equipment. Last month, North Korea delivered infantry rockets and missiles into Russia for use by Wagner.
The amount of material delivered by North Korea will not change battlefield dynamics in Ukraine, the source said.
But the US is “concerned that North Korea is planning to deliver more military equipment to Wagner”, they added.
US officials believe the North Korean arms delivery is a direct violation of the UN’s security council resolutions, and plan to raise this with the council.”-via The Guardian
~
“A former Russian deputy prime minister and a pro-Moscow official were injured when Ukrainian forces shelled the eastern city of Donetsk on Wednesday, Russian news agencies said.
Donetsk, controlled by pro-Moscow troops, is in the industrial Donbas region, epicentre of recent bitter fighting between Russia and Ukraine.
One of the injured men was Dmitry Rogozin, a former Russian deputy prime minister who is giving military advice to two occupied regions of Ukraine that Moscow claims as its own, an aide told Tass news agency, his life was not in danger.
Also hurt was Vitaly Khotsenko, the head of government of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic, his press secretary told Russian news agencies.
The two men were injured when a hotel on the outskirts of Donetsk came under fire from high-precision weapons, aides told Russian agencies. A Russian parliamentarian who was also at the hotel suggested the attackers had acted on a tip.
Rogozin used to head Russia's space agency but was replaced in July. He had taken a confrontational stance since the agency was hit with sanctions for its role in the defence industry.”-via Reuters
~
“The U.S. Senate on Dec. 22 approved an amendment allowing the transfer of seized assets belonging to Russian oligarchs to the people of Ukraine, CNN reported.
"This amendment would allow the Department of Justice through the Secretary of State to transfer proceeds from seized oligarchs' assets or other sanctioned entities to the people of Ukraine," U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham said. "It will be a godsend to the long-suffering people of Ukraine. It will be a relief to the American taxpayer… It will be a bad day for oligarchs."
The adoption of the amendment is a significant development in the ongoing efforts to hold Russian oligarchs accountable for their role in Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
On Dec. 19, Canada announced it would start seizing approximately $26 million from Granite Capital Holdings Ltd, a firm owned by sanctioned Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich.
Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland explained that Russian oligarchs have been involved in the "illegal and barbaric invasion of Ukraine," and Canada "will not be a haven for their ill-gotten gains."”-via Kyiv Independent

“Denmark has allocated more than $42 million (DKK 300 million) of additional military aid for Ukraine, according to the country’s Defense Ministry. “Ukraine’s fight for freedom is also our and Europe’s fight for freedom…The government will continue to support Ukrainians in the financial, military, and humanitarian spheres,” said the minister Jakob Ellemann-Jensen.
The funds will be donated to the International Fund for Ukraine (IFU), an initiative launched by the U.K. and responsible for purchasing weapons for Ukraine.
In October, Denmark, together with Germany and Norway, promised to jointly purchase 16 Zuzana-2 self-propelled wheeled tank howitzers from Slovakia to provide additional assistance to Ukraine. The howitzers are supposed to be delivered in 2023.
As of October 2022, Denmark has provided over 500 million euro worth of military aid to Ukraine.”-via Kyiv Independent
~
“Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky delivered a historic speech from the United States Capitol Wednesday night, expressing gratitude for American support in fighting Russian aggression since the war began – and asking for more.
“I hope my words of respect and gratitude resonate in each American heart,” Zelensky said during the joint meeting of Congress, later adding, “Against all odds, and doom and gloom scenarios, Ukraine didn’t fall. Ukraine is alive and kicking.”
But alongside Zelensky’s gratitude was a plea, emphasizing that his armed forces are outnumbered and outgunned by the Russian military even as they fight on. At one point, Zelensky drew laughs from the chamber when he said, “We have artillery, yes. Thank you. We have it. Is it enough? Honestly, not really.”
Zelensky’s visit to Washington marks his first trip outside his homeland since it was invaded 300 days ago, arriving Wednesday afternoon to set a course for the future of the war alongside a key Western ally.
On “the frontline of tyranny,” Zelensky argued during his speech to Congress, American support “is crucial not just to stand in such (a) fight but to get to the turning point to win on the battlefield.”
“The world is too interconnected and too interdependent to allow someone to stay aside and at the same time to feel safe when such a battle continues,” he added. “Our two nations are allies in this battle and next year will be a turning point, I know it – the point where Ukrainian courage and American resolve must guarantee the future of our common freedom, the freedom of people who stand for their values.”
“Your money is not charity,” he asserted to Congress. “It’s an investment in the global security and democracy that we handle in the most responsible way.” Zelensky also called on lawmakers to strengthen sanctions against Russia.
Still, despite that disparity in resources, Zelensky said, “Ukraine holds its line and will never surrender.”
In his speech, Zelensky harkened back to American history, referencing the Battle of the Bulge, President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the Battle of Saratoga. Just like “brave American soldiers which held their lines” and fought against Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Germany in 1944, Ukrainian soldiers “are doing the same to Putin’s forces this Christmas,” Zelensky said.
He also briefly discussed a 10-point peace formula and summit that he told US President Joe Biden about during an earlier meeting at the White House. Zelensky claimed Biden supported the peace initiatives.
Zelensky also recalled his recent visit to the frontlines – Bakhmut in Donbas – which has been under siege since May. There, he said, “every inch of that land is soaked in blood, roaring guns sound every hour.” In the climatic moment of the speech, he unveiled a Ukrainian flag signed by soldiers fighting in Bakhmut that he gave as a gift to the Congress.
“The occupiers have a significant advantage in artillery. They have an advantage in ammunition. They have much more missiles and planes than we ever have. It’s true, but our defense forces stand,” he added.
Russia, Zelensky argued in strong terms, has “found an ally” in Iran.
“Iran’s deadly drones sent to Russia in hundreds became a threat to our critical infrastructure. That is how one terrorist has found the other,” he said. “It is just a matter of time when they will strike against your other allies if we do not stop them now.””-via CNN (much longer article at the link)

Should I disguise myself as a somber old-fashioned girl, gawky Mlle Humbert, and put up my tent on the outskirts of Camp Q, in the hope that its russet nymphets would clamor: "Let us adopt that deep-voiced D.P.," and drag the sad, shyly smiling Berthe au Grand Pied to their rustic hearth. Berthe will sleep with Dolores Haze!
—Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita

As a lurker of the internet landscape, and who has generally not followed SPN in years, it’s always a joy seeing the fandom explode. Like SPN has a spinoff???? It’s a prequel???? Jensen Ackles is on it and living Dean Winchester’s best life in heaven??? He didn’t just do nothing for 40 years?????
And some of y’all’s posts. It really feels like it’ll be 2057, Castiel is still dead or whatever happened, the final SPN spinoff starts at Sam’s son (does Sam have kids?) getting married to his husband and Dean, who is now god or something, descends and is all angsty about this wedding and Sam Jr. asks his papa why that is right before the ceremony and Sam turns to him and says, “it’s time I told you the full story.”
Gospel choir version of Carry on My Wayward Son starts playing and then Sam’s son hears their entire story and totally is like, “yeah, Destiel is canon, we gotta get them back together!”
And then it somehow still ends with Castiel saying I love you again, Vladimir Putin being arrested, and Dean not saying it back even as Sam Jr. officiates their wedding in heaven.
#supernatural#spnfandom#spn prequel#destiel#spn win#is that the tag?#someone help#i have no idea how many grandkids i’ve got after fleeing ‘cult’ where i couldn’t watch tv or talk to ‘outsiders’#but seriously supernatural is still somehow going?#it’s alive#i never really watched this regularly
