Are TZ Married?
Tumblr media
I spot a yellow-diamond ring (at least five carats, maybe six), from Bulgari. “This is my splurge, my treat-myself,” she smiles. “I do get a little employee discount,” she laughs shyly. “It feels like it’s gonna be an heirloom, like one day I can give it to my grandchildren.”  -- Zendaya for British Vogue, October 2021 (Interview conducted on July 1, 2021).
According to a Bulgari representative, Z's yellow diamond ring is an "engagement ring."
Rewind to November 2017 when Z posted this to her Snapchat account:
Tumblr media
Then she immediately followed up with this Snapchat post:
Tumblr media
Z's fondness for yellow diamond engagement rings obviously predates 2021. So did she or didn't she buy the Bulgari yellow diamond engagement ring for herself? That is the question. After reading the following statement in her interview in the October 2021 issue of British Vogue, I have serious doubts.
Tumblr media
In February 2021, when asked during an interview if Tom would settle down now, he said he would do. x Five months later, on July 2, 2021, Page Six confirmed Tom and Zendaya were a couple.
Tumblr media
But Z preferred to keep her dating status private during her interview on July 1, 2021 with British Vogue -- the same day the paparazzi photographed them kissing:
...dating her IRL is, she insists, a tall order. The list of approvals is long – “my dad, my brothers, it’s a whole thing. Good luck to whoever wants to take that on,” she scoffs. Perhaps her Spider-Man co-star Tom Holland, who has long been rumoured to be her boyfriend, is up to the task? After all, the following day (July 2, 2021), photos appear of the pair kissing in a car after our lunch (on July 1, 2021)."
August 2021
TZ attended their friends' wedding in August 2021. While at the wedding reception, Z did not participate in the traditional bridal bouquet toss. She watched the toss from their nearby table and then shared a kiss with Tom after the bouquet was caught. x
On September 1, 2021, TZ finally acknowledged they are a couple via Tom's Instagram post.
Tumblr media
In November 2021, Tom told GQ that he and Z will talk about their story and what it is when they're ready.
"This isn’t my story. It’s our story. And we’ll talk about what it is when we’re ready to talk about it together.”
In June 2023, during an interview with BuzzFeed, Tom said, "I'm locked up, so I'm happy and in love..." x
Tumblr media
In July 2023, during a podcast with Jay Shetty, Tom stated, "My relationship is the thing I keep most sacred. I don't talk about it. I try my best to keep it as private as possible. We both feel very strongly that that is the healthiest way for us to move on as a couple." x
September 2023
Miss Nicaragua allegedly shared during a live that she had met TZ in Oakland and that she hopes Zendaya's marriage goes well (post blogged on September 18, 2023). Note: TZ were in Oakland August 25-26, 2023.
Tumblr media
Three days later, on September 21, 2023, Darnell went live on Instagram to adamantly deny Zendaya is engaged.
If she's not engaged, is she married? 🤫
October 2023
Law and Darnell were on the bridal floor in Vera Wang's store in Beverly Hills on October 13, 2023. I believe it's safe to assume Z was there as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
February 2024
During a BBC Radio 2 interview, Z stated that British people are her family now.
April 2024
In a Vogue article dated April 9, 2024, Z described her perfect future which includes a protected life with her family.
Tumblr media
Speaking of a protected family life, TZ recently adopted a dog named Daphne from Protection Dogs Worldwide.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And speaking of dogs, Z left her beloved Noon with Tom in London while she went to California. Tom even took Noon to work at the Duke of York's Theatre several times while Z was far from home (pun intended) for a couple weeks during the months of June and July 2024.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Note: Tom recently posted Noon, along with Daphne, on his Instagram account. x
October 2024
In October 2024, Tom launched his non-alcoholic beer, BERO. One of the three BERO brews, Noon Wheat, is named after "Tom and Zendaya's dog, Noon" and the "cofounder's (Tom) dog, Noon". So Noon is no longer just Z's dog. Noon is TZ's dog. Noon is Tom's dog, too. Noon is their dog.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tom considers himself Noon's dad. Both Tom and BERO posted for Noon's birthday calling him "My birthday boy" and "Tom's furry child," respectively.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
November 2024
Tumblr media
Noon is called one of "the most loved members of the Holland family..." on The Brothers Trust Instagram post.
April 2024
An Atlanta paparazzi posted this to his Instagram account and then deleted it.
Tumblr media
And then he posted and deleted this the following week:
Tumblr media
February & April 2024
Dom Holland attended Z's London premieres for both Dune 2 (February) and Challengers (April). Is this considered father-in-law behavior?
May 2024
According to Ashley Perez, her notary instructor "insinuated" TZ may have gotten a confidential (non-public) marriage license.
Tumblr media
Note: Ashley attends a college near the Bay Area.
California Confidential Marriage License Requirements:
The participating parties must be at least 18 years old to apply for a confidential marriage license. ✅
There are no CA state or US residency requirements.  ✅
The couple must state to the notary or county clerk office that they have been living together, as husband and wife or partners ✅ - not as roommates - at the time they apply for the marriage license, and must sign an affidavit on the license attesting to living together. There is no time requirement as to how long the couple has lived together.
You are not required to get married in the county where you purchase the confidential marriage license; however, you must be married in California.  You must file the license in the county where it was purchased.  
No witnesses are required to be at the ceremony, AND no witnesses sign on the marriage license.
The marriage license is a confidential record and is registered at the County Clerk’s Office in the county where it was purchased. A notary public with special authorization may issue, sign, and file a confidential marriage license.
Secret, Civil, Private, and Traditional Weddings
It's not uncommon to have a civil wedding ceremony and then have a traditional or destination wedding at a later date. Celebrities Joey King, JLo, and Elizabeth Olsen have done it. Anya Taylor-Joy originally eloped in New Orleans in 2022 and then had a wedding in Italy the following year. Millie Bobby Brown had a private family wedding in May of this year and is in the process of planning a second wedding for family and friends. Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse recently had a secret wedding ceremony. Beyoncé, Kerry Washington, and Margot Robbie had secret weddings as well. Did TZ have a civil/secret/private wedding ceremony and are they planning a traditional/second wedding in the future? If so, it wouldn't be the first time they've kept their relationship status a secret.

The History of Nigel
don't know who that voice is on that one voicemail? or who did the 'how many days' intro? i'm here to help! this is a chronological order of appearances made by nigel, links to performances, and things said by tyler about nigel.
Nigel, better known as the 'Skeleton Bones Remain' voice, has been with the band for nearly 14 years now, minus his sudden disappearance after 2020/2021. His first officially documented appearance is in the Regional At Best web series, episode 5. Since then, he's been a large and integral part of the band's live performances, especially during the 'Quiet Is Violent' tour, where we were given more of a backstory to him as a character. physically, nigel is a light that blinks behind tyler during this set, blinking as he speaks.
this next part is talking about a concert where tyler introduces nigel, but we are also given backstory into nigel as a character.
tyler introduces him as 'nigel', saying that in the beginning of the set, they were introduced to the bands host, saying that he lives in a lightbulb. the timeline of nigel as a character during this is quite interesting, its stated that he has been married for 437/133 years, but nigel himself tells us that the music "isnt entirely the music i grew up with back in the day" he then goes on to say that what he grew up with, was anything by DJ Khalid. which is interesting but moving on, tyler uses nigels responses to play bits and pieces of songs, like bugatti, all i do is win. nigel requests tyler to play a song, and tyler says he wrote it for nigel, its the song he said he danced to with his wife at their wedding. the song played was "drunk in love" by beyonce and jay z, transitioning into "cant help falling in love", then into house of gold. this bit was played throughout the tour, the only changing fact being the city name.
i mention this fact because out of all of the lore characters in all of twenty one pilots, minus clancy/blurryface, torchbearer/spookyjim, this is the only character that has a fleshed out backstory thats mentioned, and the only character that makes consistant appearances over four eras. we know more about nigel than we do about the neds.
After the 'Quiet Is Violent' tour, moving into 'Tour De Columbus' and 'Emotional Road Show', is really where his appearances start becoming incredibly consistent. he begins to introduce josh, "hello and welcome to the show", became his signature line. we see this all the way up to bandito tour. where he makes a similar intro but changes it up a bit, "look out baby, its joshua dun!"
halfway through the trench era, a pop-up shop was created for Ned's Bayou, and with it came a phone number, (614)-389-9196, where nigel gives information about the shop in the voicemail, no lore or significance there.
but its the second phone number that popped up in the level of concern ARG, 1-(877)-LVL-CNRN, where we find lore and meaning into his message. "Hello, if you are receiving this message, you are most likely are currently experiencing Levels of Concern. We thank you for your participation and interest. We have hidden codes all around the internet for you to unlock new levels. Each level contain elements that could possess a clue to proceed to the next level. That is, only if you are savvy enough. We guarantee that this game is certainly madness, happiness, paranoia and fun. Good luck. That concludes our session. Thank you, have a pleasant day. ---------- it's hidden in the static."
he is also in the stream that came with the ARG, saying things like "we can help you." and "anxiety, confusion, excitement." "wonderful to see, mesmerizing, there is light if you look caref---" and he speaks out the lyrics to level of concern.
this can be counted as the last official lore-related appearance of nigel, as his only other appearance is in the promo ad for the twenty one pilots burrito. but, many of us hope for his return!
i am more than happy to answer any questions, comments, or concerns with this!! nigel is by far my fav character throughout all of the lore. i hope you enjoyed :)

Anthony is going to enact the most balls the wall certifiably cooked proposal anyone could imagine. Remember when Beyoncé and Jay Z rented the louvre for a day to film a video? That times ten for Viscount Anthony when he finally proposes to auctioneer Kate, not to mention a ring big enough and wow enough to get her colleagues (a group of people who deal with luxury and antique jewellery every single day) gasping and gossiping.
In my head it’s something like this but maybe not? [Brand is Chaumet, icons of ridiculously ott jewellery]
Tumblr media
I think his proposal would be so understated Kate would almost miss it. His first instinct would be to do something insane like get his voice used instead of Big Ben’s bongs and then he’d calm down just a little. Well, calm down for him.
He gets Ben to paint something for him, with the most important question he’s ever going to ask hidden somewhere in it. Then he takes it in for Kate to appraise. Watching her brow furrow as she looks at it.
“Anthony, I don’t… know who painted this but-”
“Keep looking, babe.”
“Really desperate for some money hey? Am I bleeding you dry?”
“Just keep looking.”
“This is worth- Oh my god.”
“Ah you’ve found it.” Anthony grinned, dropping to one knee.
“You’re ridiculous.”
“Are you going to marry me though?”
“Yes, Anthony. Always yes.”
“I can’t believe you called this painting useless. Benedict’ll be so disappointed.”
Her engagement ring is enormous. Visible from space, she’s sure. An antique that made even her coworker’s mouth drop open when they saw it. There’s articles written about it the first time they step out to an event and a picture ends up in the society pages. People stop her and ask to look at it, which Anthony loves. He loves people gawping at his engagement ring because it means that everyone knows that Kate said yes. Kate’s his wife. Well, soon enough.

Aight chat, it's that time again
So I've been going through a massive EPIC phase that is not going away anytime soon and has progressively gotten worse ever since the Ithaca Saga came out (no it hasn't, one of the best obsessions yet)
So I'm here to talk about the obvious,
Odysseus and Mr. Jalapeño
As we all know, there is a fine difference between the two sometimes
Alright, Odysseus
Tumblr media
-PTSD probably
-Killed 100 and something suitors in one night with a bow
-Sounded like an angry owl when a certain prophet prophesied shit
-Took 20 fucking years to get home and still forgot the milk for Telemachus' Lucky Charms
-Begrudgingly yeeted a baby off a wall
-Went apeshit on Poseidon (kinda deserved, get wrecked fish kebob lmao)
-He is the monster rawr rawr rawr
-Needs a fucking hug, like please, thank god Penelope gave him one at the end
I wanna marry him
*cough cough* Who said that last part??
Anyways, next we got Mr. Jalapeño, a.k.a. Jorge Rivera-Herrans, Jay, Jimbo Pimbo, Jorgito, Mr. summoner of the chihuahua washing machine, Jorgy Gorgy, and Jorgenborg Borgonbong.
Tumblr media
-Silly
-Fluffy hair
-Has a terrifyingly great impression of Carl Weezer
-Was roommates with Hermes for a while (idk if he still is)
-Loves making the fandom cry by having Polites randomly come in during songs
-Is probably the reincarnated gen z version of Odysseus let's be fr
-Probably has a Holy Moly addiction from half the shit he does
-You either simp for him or you want him to adopt you, there is no in-between
I am one of the ones that wants him to adopt me and I am not ashamed to admit it

Observations astrology
I don’t know what it is about Pisces film females but they have the most beautiful area of their face which consists of their lips cheeks and mouth where it’s very flashy like that is the only way I can describe it but it’s really beautiful like their mouth, face and mouth and head almost like oval shaped And like really juicy look kind of like Taurus but in a different kind of way that’s the only way I can explain it? Like I say rising like little baby little chubby like Megan Thee Stallion like chubby lips and that and cute little lips and yeah just suck kind
Aries and not that bad they fallen in love with you. I think they could be really faithful and they get a lot of slack but I don’t think that’s why and that’s coming from somebody who went out with an Aries who essayed me.
Pisces men with a lot of Aries in their chart gives psychopathic energy. I was with this man for five years you had this and I was absolutely obsessed with him. He brought out the best in me. He made me feel like never ever man before after he has diagnosed ASD.
Man will literally go out and say that flirting with someone and saying how beautiful someone else’s so I don’t think they ever really get into someone to that degree because there’s always other options plenty more fish in the sea
Sagittarius women, I find with Scorpio placements very terrifying and very aloof but dark at the same time and they can come across is really scary and really but almost like a bully but do not give the same energy, the man don’t give us the same energy maybe they do to other men, but obviously I don’t know cause I’m not a man obviously.
I wish I knew more Capricorns because they seem chill and loyal, but I just don’t seem to have them come into my life
people who have a ascendant Libra,start relationships/any other types too at very very young age and could be married a couple of times or could’ve got married very young and you know why this is it is literally because they’re seventh house? 🏡 Aries house seventh Aries usually the 1st to do something the first person who won survivor was an Aries, because Aries do seem to do things very young e.g. for example losing their virginity they often of♈️ very young, age relationships, and like I said marrying young, maybe even a loping and secret
Maybe a shotgun wedding,
Example of this my Nan, who is a libra rising and a lot of Aries  in the charts in the seventh house r, so it has the air of Libra more to it not getting married very young, because everything in that seventh house 🏠 Aries. ♈️ end up doing things at the youngest, because they are the baby of the zodiac . they will either get married young, a shotgun wedding, they might lose their virginity young, my sister who is Aries 🌞, they might start doing drugs young like my ex-boyfriend who was at Mars and Venus in Aries he started smoking weed at like eight.
Or to give you another example of a libra rising my Nan, who is an Aries son so her son moon and mercury sitting in the seventh house, pregnant 15 and had to get married that’s what happened back then she was a catholic and Irish, and she married this alcoholic piece of shit sorry my grandad, who treated my dad and the rest of his siblings like shit, this is just an example of what happens if you are a libra rising, like I said it’s not always the case, I look at Anna Nicole Smith she married young but she married a very older man, Beyoncé is surprisingly a Libra rising, and met Jay-Z when she was very young.
People with there mars in Gemini ♊️ live wires, they also have the extremely restless ADHD energy. They can’t sit still for five minutes. I have to always be doing, unless they have other aspects that tone is down, but most of them have this going on until some degree

Is a five-year age gap in a relationship a little untoward? What about a three-year gap?
On social media, Gen Zers ― at least those who are chronically online ― are constantly debating the ethics of age gaps. Even if some relationships are perfectly legal, that doesn’t necessarily make them ethical, many say.
It’s little wonder then that age-disparate relationships are cause for so much conversation: Having grown up alongside the #MeToo movement, Generation Z is well versed in unbalanced power dynamics and the language of consent. And lately, there’s been plenty of celebrity pairings to interrogate.
There’s the obviously icky examples, like the recent, short-lived romance between Aoki Lee Simmons — Russell and Kimora Lee Simmons’ 21-year-old daughter — and restaurateur Vittorio Assaf, 65. Earlier this month, viral photos showed the pair flouncing around on vacation in St. Barts.
Yes, they’re both consenting adults, but it was still unseemly, critics said. If anything, the argument that they’re both of age is “something groomers cling to,” as one young woman on Threads put it.
“Adulthood was meant to signify voting/draft age,” she wrote. “But everyone knows your prefrontal cortex is not fully formed at this age.” (This difference between so-called brain age and chronological age ― you might be 21 but your brain is undeveloped! ― often gets brought up in these kinds of conversations.)
There are gender-swapped examples too, like actor Aaron Taylor-Johnson and filmmaker Sam Taylor-Johnson, a now-married couple who met while working on a 2009 John Lennon biopic called “Nowhere Boy.” At the time, he was in his late teens and she was a mother of two in her early 40s.
“I didn’t relate to anyone my age,” the actor told The Telegraph in 2019, reflecting on when they first met. “I just feel that we’re on the same wavelength.”
Some fans aren’t convinced. “We def aren’t talking about male grooming victims enough and this is literally proof,” one person wrote in a highly shared TikTok video about their coupling.
Then there’s the less expected critiques: Is four years too much of an age gap? “At 25, I wouldn’t even date a 21 year old,” reads one tweet with around 80,000 likes.
What about 10 years? Fans of Billie Eilish were up in arms in 2022 when the then-20-year-old singer revealed that she was dating fellow musician Jesse Rutherford, who was in his early 30s. One viral tweet about the 10-year age gap reads: “jesse rutherford was alive during george h w bush’s presidency . billie eilish cannot legally drink.”
Long-established relationships aren’t safe, either. Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s 11-year gap has been scrutinized. And recently, Beyhive members have begun debating whether Beyoncé was “groomed” because she was 19 when she started dating Jay-Z, who was in his early 30s.
Noncelebrity couples are getting called out, too. “I was 19. My now husband was 27. My now 13yo child calls him my ‘predator,’” one woman wrote on Threads alongside laughing emoji, probably only half-joking.
Why Gen Z Seems To Have Such An Aversion To Age Gaps
Is Gen Z just more prudish on this subject than prior generations?
Not necessarily, said Justin Lehmiller, a research fellow at the Kinsey Institute and the host of the “Sex and Psychology Podcast.” He’s been studying age-gap relationships for roughly 20 years and said the stigma around age-disparate relationships is long-standing.
In 2008 ― when terms like “cradle robber” and “cougar” were bandied around a lot more than they are now ― Lehmiller co-authored a study that found age-discrepant couples reported experiencing significantly more social disapproval than people in gay or interracial couples.
So the discomfort around these types of relationships isn’t anything new. What is new, according to Lehmiller, is how comfortable Gen Z feels about publicly and vocally disapproving of these relationships ― even on people’s personal Instagram pages. (Aaron and Sam Taylor-Johnson recently spoke out against the “bizarre” online judgment they’ve received. Eilish and Rutherford brushed off the criticism from overly concerned fans by dressing up as a baby and an old man one Halloween.)
“To some in Gen Z, age-gap relationships read as being inherently exploitative because they perceive age discrepancies as necessarily creating a power imbalance that favors the older partner,” Lehmiller told HuffPost.
What’s also changed is which parties tend to receive the brunt of the judgment. In the past, people were often scornful of both the younger and older partners in these relationships. Historically, the younger partners, especially when they were women, endured labels like “gold digger” ― with the implication that they were the ones doing the exploiting. That terminology doesn’t always fly with Gen Z.
“That perception seems to have largely disappeared when you look at what Gen Z is saying,” Lehmiller noted. “They seem to cast the younger partners as victims who are being preyed upon or ‘groomed.’”
Gigi Engle, a certified sex and relationship psychotherapist and resident intimacy expert for dating app 3Fun, worries that the term “grooming” is being overapplied and losing its meaning.
“The narrative is really toxic here and in many other cases,” she told HuffPost. “Trans people are groomers, gay people are groomers, older people dating younger people are groomers ― and this just isn’t accurate. It’s a really fear-mongering time we live in.”
Gen Z may be hyperfocused on this because of their age: If you’re a 35-year-old woman, you’re probably less hung up on the idea of a 50-year-old guy expressing interest in you.
“I think younger people may be more susceptible to manipulation and are therefore more afraid of it,” Engle said. “The reality is, age-gap relationships have been happening since humans have existed, and it is absolutely not some one-size-fits-all. In the vast majority of relationships like this, nothing untoward is happening.”
Here’s What Gen Z Has To Say About Age Gaps
Talking to actual Gen Zers, you’ll find that their opinions on age gaps run the gamut. As with most things, their takes on the subject are much more nuanced than those found on X, the platform previously known as Twitter, would have you believe.
That said, many are genuinely bothered by age gaps. While the #MeToo movement gave them the language to talk about power imbalances, some 20-somethings say their opinions are more colored by their own personal experiences.
Layla — a 23-year-old who asked to use her first name only for privacy reasons, like others in this story — thinks it’s better to date within your own age group, ideally within a two- or three-year range.
“When I was around 21 and 22, I tried talking to guys who were 30 and over but soon realized it wasn’t right,” she told HuffPot. “They had so much more life experiences than me, and it was awkward being from different generations.”
Layla said she’d tried to joke and laugh about certain things ― a meme or a TikTok video ― and got a lot of blank stares. She wasn’t a fan of their humor, either: A date recounting the umpteenth “Seinfeld” episode or that one “Step Brothers” scene gets a little old after a while.
“Trying to relate to one another just didn’t work out, and it felt awkward and wrong,” she said.
“I believe a relationship between an 18- and 25-year-old is problematic,” Layla said, noting that this applies regardless of gender.
“I actually wish women got called out for their predatory behavior, too,” she said. “It almost seems like no one wants to hold women accountable.”
Mona, a 21-year-old college student in Georgia, even finds her own parents’ 11-year age gap a little “predatory”: Her dad was in his late 30s and a divorced father of one when he met her mom, who was in her late 20s and didn’t have children.
Mona would date someone three years older. She wouldn’t consider going younger, though. “I do think that an 18- and 25-year-old together is unacceptable,” she said.
She is particularly weirded out when she hears people talk about how their partner basically raised them or taught them “how to be a woman,” as Beyoncé said to Jay-Z in a 2006 birthday toast that went viral recently.
Mona is also wary of anyone who almost exclusively dates young people ― the Leonardo DiCaprios of the world. Every time the 49-year-old actor gets a new girlfriend, a graph highlighting the fact that each of his ex-girlfriends has been 25 or under starts circulating again.
“Any respectable adult would have the common sense that pursuing a teenager is extremely weird, and I also believe it says a lot about the headspace of the older person,” the 21-year-old said.
Mona also thinks the COVID-19 pandemic might’ve been a factor in Gen Zers’ apprehension over age gaps. They might technically be 21, but given that weird few-year pause, they don’t feel it.
“You hear about how we’re mentally the same age that we were when the pandemic first started,” she said. “That might play a role in why some people are not settling on older people pursuing them ― you feel you’re still too young.”
Not everyone agrees. Rei, a 22-year-old who is queer, said they don’t find age-disparate relationships inherently problematic. They said there’s a lot more than age that gives people power over each other, and if you consider five years an “age-gap relationship” then Rei is currently in one.
“Though my partner is older than me, I have a college degree and she doesn’t,” they said. “So arguably I have a better financial and career outlook that would make me the ‘abusive one,’ if you’re using that language.”
Age gaps may be more common in the queer community, Rei said. “I don’t know a gay guy who hasn’t been with someone much older than him,” they said. “It’s just normal to us.”
Problematic dynamics can exist no matter the age. “People now don’t know what grooming is and just use the term as synonymous with age gaps,” Rei said.
To some extent, Rei sees the hubbub over age gaps as an overcorrection of the mores ushered in by the #MeToo movement.
“People overadjust and assume that any relationship out of the norm is abusive,” they said. “In my experience, people who feel age gaps are problematic are also the same people who argue the internet is harmful and should be censored because they had a bad experience as a kid. Your experience isn’t universal.”
For Amelia, 24, actual age matters less than the stage of life you’re in. She figures if you’re a relatively accomplished 28-year-old dating an accomplished 40-year-old, what’s the big deal? The word “grooming” really only applies when an adult is introduced to a future partner when they’re underage, Amelia said.
She cited the relationship between Dane Cook and his wife as an “egregious” example of a questionable age gap. (The now-52-year-old comedian met Kelsi Taylor at a game night he hosted when she was in her late teens.)
“Do I think it’s possible for people like that to have a healthy and happy relationship? Sure,” Amelia said. “But the older I get, my desire to talk to high schoolers grows slimmer and slimmer. I really can’t put myself in the shoes of someone who would want to befriend a high schooler.”
That said, Amelia thinks that some Gen Zers take their judgment too far. To her, the concern over age gaps seems like a weirdly “paternalistic” brand of feminism, where women feel the need to protect women from men.
“It’s similar to how Swifties treat Taylor Swift,” she said, referring to the now-34-year-old pop star.
“You have young women ‘looking out for’ a billionaire woman in her 30s. I’m a fan of Taylor Swift, but I don’t think she needs protecting from Travis Kelce because Travis Kelce got in the face of his NFL coach during the Super Bowl.”
The anti-age-gap sentiment held by many plays into the “puriteen” narrative that’s been inescapable lately. Online, there’s a lot of hand-wringing over Gen Zers’ seeming aversion to sex: Studies show that they’re having less of it than earlier generations and that they don’t want sex scenes in their movies.
Though Amelia overall disagrees with age-gap critics ― she feels like their arguments rob women of their agency, she said ― she gets where those in her peer group are coming from.
“The majority of us had unsupervised internet access from a young age. We were in chatrooms, on Tumblr, and other various corners of the internet that we probably should not have been on at that age,” she said. “It was easy for grown men on the internet to reach us if they wanted to.”
If you’ve been oversexualized at a young age ― or seen others in your age bracket be oversexualized ― that experience is understandably going to shape how you perceive these kinds of things, Amelia said.
But the reality is, there are likely just as many happy May-December unions as there are disappointing ones. “Believe it or not, we often see more ― not less ― equity in these relationships,” Lehmiller noted.
All of the Gen Zers we spoke to said that ultimately, two consenting adults can do whatever they want in their private lives, even if others find it off-putting.
“Men can like women that are younger and not be a creep,” Amelia said. “He also can be a creep, but some random person with a Twitter cartoon avatar shouldn’t necessarily be the judge of that!”

TikTokkers will just theorize shit and be wrong and get 100k likes but I'm intrigued by this video I found talking about the trouble Diddy is in for his abuse of Cassie and probably a lot worse and how prior to this Jay Z has always been a close friend of his and apparently Ice Cube is saying he's more similar to Diddy than people think
A lot of rappers probably are. Personally I've been sick of these ugly misogynistic dime a dozen men being pedestaled as the peak of Black American success so much the last few years that whenever one or the other gets canceled I usually don't care or follow the news anymore but maybe it would really make people pay attention to domestic violence if Beyonce's husband is in a hot enough seat considering how secretive she's always tried to be
I mean no one really cared when he cheated and she stayed but. I hope she gets shit too if he's involved in some shit and she once again stays cause her "feminism" was always wishy washy, quoting Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie on the same album Jay makes a Tina Turner "joke"
Saw another video saying Epstein's clients lists are being released soon, I really fucking hope so. More shitty famous men's reputations deserve to be trashed, more handmaiden women need to be stopped, and hip hop overall has been needed its rapist house cleaning done, such a potentially beautiful genre constantly ruined by scrotes jacking off about murder and bitches, hope it's a thorough job
ETA 4/2024
Have to do it this way cause Tumblr won't let me reblog and add videos but
They were right this time. Good.
Watch this one too
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jaguar is a musician (for The Roots IIRC) who worked with Jay Z in the past and has been in the hip hop industry for decades and she's been saying Jay Z deserves to wind up with the same fate as Diddy
Please share this one y'all Beyonce is one of the most recognizeable women on the planet and it turns out she may be married not just to an ugly brick who "raised her" when was 18 but a criminal murderer and sex trafficker.

Why am I seeing more hate for Beyonce? It’s not that jay z is irrelevant compared to Beyonce or any like that. He’s a popular rapper and business man. I’m pretty sure he’s more rich than Beyonce is. He’s the one who did the crimes. Heck, Beyonce is a victim of his since he groomed her. Yet idiots are too busy bashing Beyonce for some stupid stan wars.
Beyonce should get some heat for being married to him but not more than the guy who actually did the crime!

As Good a Reason - two
pairing: Mob!Bucky Barnes x reader
summary: when Brock Rumlow picks a fight he can’t win with the White Wolf, he drags his Snake back. Six years after she ran away, Y/N Rumlow is faced with a choice to make; do as she’s told and kill the White Wolf or overtake her father instead because spite’s as good a reason to take his power?
warnings: mob!Bucky, cursing
word count: 3.1k
Tag list: @cakesandtom @elizacusi-blog @unaxv @hidden-treasures21 @vonalyn
one | series masterlist
Tumblr media
disclaimer: credits to original creator/poster of image/gif. found on Google/Pinterest. The women in the banners are not how Y/N is supposed to look. They are merely for aesthetic purposes and Y/N is written vaguely enough for anyone to see themselves in her.
The city never changed during her six year hiatus. Concrete jungle or whatever Jay Z said, that is how she remembered the city and as the car rolls down the streets, it’s obvious that it’s not going to change. 
About the only thing that has changed is how much of an outsider Y/N feels like. This place isn’t her home, it hasn’t been since her father put a bullet in her mom right in the middle of dinner. It probably wasn’t even home for her before then but it’s all she knew. God even Phoenix in all its hot glory felt more like home than the lower east side did. 
Victoria has remained eerily quiet ever since they got off the plane. Y/N passed it off as nerves but Niklaus whispered to her that neither daughter had been “home” since that night. Brock had chosen to ship Victoria off to Paris to live with some business partner of his. He said it was good for her to travel but when it was really a ploy to marry her off to a 50 year old white man. 
That man ended up dead 366 days after they were married and exactly one day after the prenup ended. 
Niklaus, on the other hand, was held prisoner in his childhood home and forced to learn the ins and outs of the family business. Brock needed someone to take over in the event of his early death and being the only son, Niklaus was the natural choice. Brock always wanted it to be Y/N, his youngest and most favorite, but Jasmine ruined that for him. 
Either way, Y/N almost immediately decides to shoot the man dead the moment the White Wolf’s death is confirmed. She had thought about this very chance every night for six years but now she’s finally getting the chance. A part of her wants to make him suffer and the other part just wants him gone. Both agree that he needs to be dealt with as soon as possible which means cooperating for the time being. 
A tall blonde is driving them and she picks up on a strange vibe the moment he gives her the up and down. Any other time and she would’ve broken his nose but Niklaus guides her away before she can do that. 
“That’s Caleb Walker’s son, John,” he whispers to her as they drive. 
“THAT’S John?”
Victoria smirks, “He got hot.”
“Jesus,” Y/N snorts, “He got weird and creepy.”
“Whatever. More for me then.”
Niklaus makes a face but drops it before either sister can figure out what it means. Their attention gets turned to John when he announces that they’ve arrived at the Rumlow townhouse. Y/N wants to make a comment about how far her father has fallen since she’s left and almost does although the dark presence of the man at the butt of the comment overwhelms her. 
Standing on stairs is Brock and his men, all dressed like they stepped out of Call of Duty or some other war video game that teenage boys play. Another tall blonde that rubs her the wrong way flanks her father but he’s dressed alarmingly normal in jeans and a Dodgers tee shirt. Y/N points him out to her brother as they get out and he stalls for a second. 
“That… that’s uhhh Steve Rogers. He works for the White Wolf.”
“Don’t tell me that he’s a glorified babysitter.”
“Don’t let him hear you say that.”
Just as they get into ear shot, they stop whispering to each other and greet everyone. Victoria makes a show of greeting Brock who can’t be bothered to even acknowledge her and keeps his whole attention on Y/N. 
“There’s my baby girl,” he says with too much gusto and squeezes her too tightly in a bear hug. 
She pushes against him as hard as she can to which he utters a warning into her ear of play nice or else. He gives her a fake smile when he releases her and introduces her to Steve who gently shakes her hand. 
“It’s nice to finally meet you, Ms. Juárez. I’ve heard so much about you.” Brock stiffens at the last name and corrects Steve. 
“Sorry, Ms. Rumlow.”
After taking her hand back and exchanging pleasantries, she heads inside in the direction that she saw Victoria go. Niklaus is not far behind but he’s stopped by John who whispers something in his ear and lets him go. His face is a shade paler when he catches up to them however he refuses to say what happened. Victoria is content to unpack her own bags while Y/N helps her and eyes their brother with concern. He occasionally makes eye contact with her only to quickly break it and find lint on his pants to pick off. 
Dinner rolls around and Brock requests that all three join him. Flashbacks break the surface and take over Y/N’s mind when she first sits down. Like a true villain, her father had the same dinner made from that night with the same seating so that they can relive possibly the worst night of her life. He smiles at her discomfort and preys on it like a vampire, finding delight in her shivers. As he drains her of her will to cooperate, he spills the details of his plan to kill the White Wolf. 
There will be a party on Saturday that the White Wolf will be at. Niklaus and Victoria are to find and isolate him so that Y/N can deliver the kill shot. 
Simple enough but still she finds every flaw in it. 
Won’t he be suspicious? 
If he’s going to be there, won’t he have security?
How is Y/N supposed to kill him? 
Why does this “simple” plan need the Snake?
Brock slams his hand on the table and stops her line of questioning, saying, “Because your brother and sister are too fucking stupid to do it. I’ve already tried them and that’s how we got into this position in the first place. I need you to do it.”
“Weren’t you the one who told me to never reveal all of my cards?” Y/N asks as she takes a drink of her wine. 
Brock’s nostrils flare and he squeezes his glass so hard it threatens to break, “I swear to god, Y/N.”
“You must be really desperate.”
“Y/N.” 
She takes another sip of wine, “Only a truly desperate man would turn to his enemy for help.”
“You’re not my enemy. You’re my daughter even if your mother was a whore and a liar.”
That strikes a cord. 
“Say one more thing about her and I will kill you right now.”
Brock laughs in her face, “I’d like to see you try.”
When she doesn’t answer, he continues on explaining his plan for the party. Victoria and Niklaus are listening enough for Y/N to drown everything out. 
She squeezes her eyes shut and repeats a mantra to herself;
He’s next.  
He’s next.  
He’s next.  
He’s next.  
He’s next.  
He’s next.  
She opens her eyes, inhales deeply, exhales, and takes a sip of her wine. 
“Is there a dress code for this party?”
Tumblr media
Steve slides into his car and calls the White Wolf the moment the door closes. 
“What do you got for me?” he asks when he answers the phone. 
“She hates him with a burning passion. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think that she’s here plotting his death, not yours.”
The other man chuckles, “That so?”
“How much did Sam tell you about her mom,” Steve pauses as he searches through his texts for the name, “Jasmine Rumlow?” 
“Enough to know that it wouldn’t surprise me if Brock turns up dead tomorrow morning. Did you get anything else?”
“She’s going to be the key to taking out his operation. He has a soft spot for her so we can exploit that but it might be easier to exploit hers, push her to help us.”
The White Wolf sighs and takes a moment to think before answering, “Do we know what that is or are you expecting me to figure it out when she’s pointing a gun at me?”
Steve rolls his eyes, “Is that your way of saying that I need to be back here tomorrow?” “And the day after that. Don’t let her leave your sight until you know what her weaknesses are. Even if she hates mornings, I want to know everything.”
“Copy that.”
Tumblr media
Growing up with Caleb Walker at Brock’s side meant that Y/N did know his son, John but he stayed out of their fathers’ ways. Maybe it was his parents wanting to protect him or maybe it was that he knew from a young age what a monster Brock was. Either way he failed whoever wanted to protect him. 
Working in the same role as his father, John never leaves Brock’s side and it’s unnerving to Y/N. When Brock moved, John moved. When Brock breathed, John breathed. When Brock tried to assert dominance over Y/N, John did the same. The most recent example of this is how he grips at her arm and nearly throws her through her bedroom door after she got caught sneaking back into the house. 
“What were you thinking?” he demands, his voice bouncing off the walls and echoing deep into her ears. 
Y/N shakes off his hand and voice as she walks towards her bed. She drops herself down and starts to take off her shoes which angers him even more. His question rings out again but she doesn’t care to answer it. He asks for a third time and she stops what she’s doing, straightens up, and half turns to him. 
“I’ll answer you when you stop yelling at me.”
He scoffs and puts his hands on his hips, “I don’t have time for this.”
“And I have all the time in the world.”
Shaking his head, he looks to the ground and takes a deep breath, “Fine.”
Y/N goes back to untying her shoes and kicks them off when he finds the peace inside himself to ask the question again. “I won’t be a prisoner while I’m here. Brock might tell you differently but what I’m telling you is to take the presidency; I can and will leave whenever I want. If the White Wolf is really that big of a threat, then I’ll check in with you but no one is going to track, follow, or stalk me.”
John nods along even though deep down it’s painful to be taking orders from her. 
“Since the stupid party has a dress code, Vic, Niklaus, and I will be going shopping. If I see anyone tailing us, I will be shooting out their tires and you,” she pauses to turn and look at him, “will get the brunt of my wrath, understood?” John sniffs aggressively but nods in understanding nonetheless. Y/N finishes taking her shoes and socks off before going to her closet to change. He doesn’t leave or move, annoying her even more than she already is. She wants to huff at the invasion of privacy but it won’t be her any good. With her luck, he’ll take it as her being hurt or worse; a threat to his manhood. Before she can think of something snarky to say, John speaks up and starts into the nostalgia of her being back. He goes on and on about how he never thought he would see her again and how he always thought that they would end up together. 
Pulling a sweatshirt over her head, Y/N stops in the closet entrance and stares blankly at him. He grows uncomfortable and shifts but keeps up with his line of wishful thinking. 
“I’m going to stop you right there,” she says, interrupting his tangent about how he had a crush on her growing up, “I don’t care. I don’t want to hear about our childhood from your point of view. I don’t want to hear about how happy you are that I’m back. I don’t want to hear any of it because I don’t care, John. As soon as I’ve outlived my usefulness with the White Wolf or whoever else Brock pissed off, he’ll send me away or kill me and honestly, I’m good with either. I don’t want this life and I never have so please spare me the romantics of it all.”
The door slams almost immediately after she finishes and she lets out a deep sigh. Of course it would take crushing his dreams of them being endgame to get him to leave. On the bright side, maybe he won’t bother her anymore or it could go the other way and he’ll be stuck to her like glue. 
Y/N chooses to not think about it anymore and falls onto her back on her bed, allowing the comfort of the blankets to engulf her. Time slips away from her as she lets her worries and stress disappear even if for a minute or two. Nothing is ever really stressful free for her, not when her father is still alive and controlling her life. 
There had been a time, maybe two years into living in Phoenix, did she think that it would be possible to be free form Brock. Maria and her were in the middle of moving from their first tiny apartment to the one she left behind when the letter showed up. It was simple and with no address. All the letter said was “Don’t get comfortable.” Maria hid it as soon as she found it and tried her hardest to hide any fears that it brought it up but it only worked for a few months after that. A car crash is what took Maria but Y/N always knew that it was more than that; a planned attack or something like that. In hindsight, it could’ve been this White Wolf and not Brock but that would mean that he’s been pulling the strings for far longer than she knew or wanted to admit. 
Her phone rings on the nightstand, drawing her back to reality and she groans as she grabs it. There’s no caller ID so she’s hestiaant to answer and lets it go to voicemail. Dropping herself back onto her bed, she doesn’t get a second to enjoy it because it starts ringing again. No caller ID flashes once more and she figures that if she doesn’t answer it now, whoever it is will keep calling all night long. 
“What do you want?” “No hello?” a man’s voice comes through, harsh and thick but with an undertone of something she can’t place. 
“What do you want?” “Open your curtain.”
She closes her eyes in annoyance, “no. You have three seconds to tell me what you want before I hang up.”
“Assuming your father is going to be the most predictable thing and try to pull something at the party, I’m having a dress delivered for you to wear. Something a little different from those cargo pants you wear everyday.”
“I’m gonna go out on a limb here and say this is the White Wolf asshole that Brock is obsessed with.”
He chuckles, deep and profound, “Ouch. I don’t think I’m an asshole.”
“Well,” Y/N starts as she sits up and pushes the curtain back to peer out the window, “if the shoe fits.”
Across the street is a blacked out car however she can only assume that the man on the phone is sitting in it. Her assumption is correct. The passenger window rolls down and a dark haired man waves at her. From this distance she can’t make out too many details but she can see the speckles of facial hair and penetrating eyes.
“I fully expect you to be wearing my dress and if you’re not, I’ll be very upset, little snake.”
“I’ll try but no promises.” 
“Oh and it goes without saying, don’t tell your father we talked.”
Y/N hangs up without answering and the man continues to stare up at her as another man gets out of the car with a big black box in hand. He puts it down in front of their gate and returns to his car. The White Wolf gives her a grin to match his name and the two drive away. 
That box sits in her closet for almost three days before she opens it. The decision comes after a few failed shopping trips and with her returning with one dress she only got because Victoria didn’t want to leave it at the store. Y/N and Niklaus argued with her for a solid 45 minutes about how stupid it was to buy a dress only because you don’t want someone else to have it. 
Of course her response was that she’ll find another time to wear it if Y/N choose something else. The shimmery emerald green material shines too much and the deep front v cuts too low for her liking hence why she’s sitting in her closet with the box in front of her. She’s been staring at it for probably 15 minutes now and the looming pressure of the party tomorrow is starting to get to her. Aside from the dress being generally not something she would wear, it feels impractical to wear if she’s going to complete a mission. 
Curiosity gets the better of her logic and she’s tearing into the box before she knows it. In the white tissue paper lies a simple black dress. No jewels or gems, no elaborate hems, or fancy material. Pulling out the dress, she gets a better look at the floor length dress that will no doubt hug her figure. The boat neck line provides the cover that her sister’s dress lacks and she quickly shoves the dress back into its box. 
“No, no. no,” she whispers to herself as she drums her fingers against the lid, “I’m not wearing it. I can’t. I won't.”
It calls to her, chanting her name from beneath her hand. 
She slowly reopens it, letting her hands drift over the fabric as she battles with herself about it, “No I can’t wear this. I mean…. I could. It’s more practical. I could probably fight in it. It’d be easier…” 
She trails off in her internal line of arguing as she feels its softness. 
“I’ll just try it on first.”
Famous last words.

watching tiktok spiral after the diddy stuff has been so. like. what???
what do you mean you're telling people not to vote for kamala harris because she uses a beyoncé song in her rallies/ads, and evidently beyoncé is a devil witch who has anyone more talented than her murdered, and she can do so because she's married to jay-z, who is supposedly diddy's right hand man.
and so obviously kamala harris using a beyoncé song means she is also a devil witch like beyoncé, and she's come to rule the country as part of the hollywood elite new world order. are you hearing yourself. what are you talking about right now.

irreplaceable rant? to the left to the left
My irreplaceable rant is essentially:
When Beyonce wrote Irreplaceable it was like a giant stepping on an ant. Even in 06 she was shaping up to be a Juggernaut. B'Day launched at number 1 I believe? She was blowing up. Well established, producing bop after bop after banger after banger. And We bought Irreplaceable because we, fully, were on board. Beyonce COULD have another you in a minute. The mythos of Beyonce was taking shape. She was Beyonce, you were some guy. To the left.
When she wrote Lemonade it was like. Oh there are stakes now because whether you think Jay Z is great or not or a garbage dude or whatever, he's at least closer to her level than just "some guy".
Like. Of course she could have another you in a minute if you were some dude. But could she have another Jay Z in a minute? No, categorically she could not, and to say otherwise is to tell yourself fun lies because you hate cheaters or men or whatever. I am a firm believer that Beyonce is one of a kind and cannot be replicated in our lifetime as a cultural phenomenon, artist, creator, singer, you name it she is. incredible. But I'm also not going to pretend Jay Z wasn't in some ways just as singularly, powerfully monolithic with popculture just because most of this website understands rap less.
She writes the Sistine Chapel about him because like it or not, she wants to. She looks at him and sees things you could only dream of creating and I for one am just happy to be here, and could care less what you think about Beyonce's specialist boy who is the catalyst of some of the best music I've heard in the past decade, and also someone who MADE some of the best music I've heard in the past 20 years as well.
Beyonce's first solo recording was 03 Bonnie and Clyde, btw. As in, she was a feature on a Jay Z song before even releasing Dangerously in Love. Which. Also prominently has a Jay Z feature. In the lead single. That arguably launched Beyonce's career. Why would she ever write songs about the man who helped her launch her career that she has been married to for 16 years. A damn mystery.
And for the record, if she wanted to make the most beautiful art in the world about literal garbage, so the fuck what. We hate Duchamps The Fountain on this website now? Irving Penn spent years taking extremely detailed, well composed photos... of actual trash. Like Mud Glove. His photos were hanging in the Smithsonian a few years ago. Turns out beautiful art that says something, even something about trash? Still beautiful.

tagging @oiveyzmir, @shares-a-vest and anyone else who would like to participate, only if you want to!
a snippet from ‘the act’ i wrote from a few days ago, because i really need to write more of that asap. under the cut ⬇️
Eddie enters the living room, and the usually warm-toned lights have been replaced with an icy blue hue and disco ball lights. A karaoke machine stands on a raised level beside the small television, with Jason standing next to it. The speakers boom with the opening to that new song, Umbrella, by Rihanna and Jay-Z—or Jay-C, as Jason’s been calling himself—and he takes the microphone off Maddy.
And with Steve having his girls in rotation, she’s his “plus one” for the night. Maddy, who failed magnificently at singing Lady Marmalade. Even though she sounded like shit, Eddie smiles. It’s nice to see her having fun and not clinging to Steve’s arm like India and Nancy do.
He takes a seat on the sofa next to Tommy, and they both watch as a drunk Jason makes a fool of himself in front of everyone. And he- Jesus, he’s dedicated the song to Chrissy. All eyes are on her as he skips Jay-Z’s part and begins some shitty speech about their… their love?
“Chrissy, I love you, babe,” he says, slurring through the sentence.
“We broke up, like, aeons ago. Can’t you just let it go, Jason?”
Jason looks downcast at her words, attempting to plaster a smile on his face as he turns away from her and jumps back into the chorus. Tommy turns to Eddie, and it’s a struggle to hear what he’s saying over Jason’s singing—if you can even call it that. Something about fucking, marrying and killing. He hopes it’s only a game. But with the way Tommy’s been acting so sketchy… It might not just be a game.
“Okay, I’m bored as shit,” Tommy says, swinging his legs over Eddie’s so he’s pretty much sitting in his lap. “Fuck, marry, kill… Margaret, Richard or Henry.” Oh, you have got to be kidding me.

Celebrity Age-Gap Relationships Astrology Observation 💞A common thing I’ve noticed in a lot of age gap relationships between people in my personal life is the male partner nearly always has Virgo/Scorpio/Libra in his inner planets. Sometimes a combo of two or even all three are present.
My theory as to why this happens goes pretty deep and likely deserves its own post so I’ll just try to summarise: I’ve always had a theory that men with these placements are subconsciously drawn to younger partners. However, most of the time, it is genuinely not in a predatory or nefarious type of way. My theory is that it has to do with a deeply subconscious need to nurture, provide, look out for, and protect their partners. So they may be drawn to younger women because they want to protect them in a “fatherly” type of way. Again: I believe that this is subconscious and many of them may not even realise that they are doing it. I don’t believe that a majority of them are doing it out of malice, I think it’s just part of who they are.
The number is how many years older they are than their girlfriend/fiancée/wife.
Eddie Murphy: Scorpio Moon. | 19 years.
Patrick Stewart: Scorpio Moon. | 39 years.
Richard Gere: Virgo Sun. Libra Mercury, Venus. | 33 years.
Leonardo DiCaprio: Scorpio Sun, Venus, Mars. Libra Moon, Mercury. | 22 years.
Ryan Reynolds: Scorpio Sun, Moon, Mars. Libra Mercury. | 11 years.
Jason Statham: Virgo Venus, Scorpio Mars | 20 years.
Steve Martin: Scorpio Moon. Virgo Mercury. | 22 years.
Sylvester Stallone: Libra Moon. Virgo Mars. | 23 years.
Jay-Z: Libra Moon. Scorpio Venus. | 12 years.
Matthew McConaughey: Scorpio Sun, Mercury. Virgo Moon. Libra Venus. | 13 years.
Humphrey Bogart: Libra Moon. | 25 years.
Adam Levine: Scorpio Moon. | 10 years.
Mel Gibson: Libra Moon. Scorpio Mars. | 35 years.
Jeff Goldblum: Libra Sun. Scorpio Mercury. | 30 years.
Michael Fassbender: Virgo Moon. | 12 years.
David Foster: Scorpio Sun. Libra Mercury. Virgo Mars. | 34 years.
Guy Ritchie: Virgo Sun. Libra Mercury, Venus. | 13 years.
Prince Albert II: Virgo Sun, Mercury. Scorpio Moon. | 20 years.
John Stamos: Virgo Moon, Mercury. Libra Mars. | 22 years.
Stephen Moyer: Libra Sun, Moon, Mercury. Virgo Venus. | 13 years.
*Capricorn & Cancer was also present at handful of times. But they were not as frequent as the other three signs, therefore I decided not to include them.
ALL OF THE ABOVE INFORMATION'S CREDIT GOES TO @corvoidea and I didnt reblog it because i prefer being anonymous.
I am quite an experienced astro girl too but NOT a professional and i read your post on his bpc,it co relates so much with his natal chart and its actually my first time ever seeing that and like you said his fs looks very young could also be that she's younger than him but more mature for her age or than him too,you said that people have this instinct to protect her and the above post also says the same thing about these men wanting to protect their partners so they usually go for younger women.your post was great by the way.
if you've read the info above you'll get the hint of what jks age gap would be with his fs.his natal 7th house ruler is in Virgo(ruled by Mercury which also means that the person prefers younger partners)+he has his moon's ruler in the 8th house too. he has a virgo stellium(sun,moon,nn) (it is also the sign that represents innocence so he'd like someone innocent looking or someone younger)IN 8th house(ruled by Scorpio)+his mars is in scorpio in 10th(ruled by saturn meaning responsible and protective).he has venus in Libra in 9th house(its also the house of foreign things,wisdom,religion, etc).cap risings also tend to marry older partners 50 percent of the time but i feel like his fs would be younger than him and a foreigner too because he has MANY indicators for the so and so stuff I've said above.the shortest age gap is 10 years....NOW IM NOT SAYIND HE'S A CREEPY P3DO OR SOMETHING SO DONT COME FOR ME BECAUSE MY MARTIAN DOMINANT ASS WOULD NOT MIND ROASTING THE F OUTTA YOU.
Tarot readers say his fs would be older than him bit his birth chart doesn't say so and that could also be because he's not ready to take the whole responsibility of his fs as he's a very busy guy who knows that he has a lot of growing to do.its even safe to say that he's never been in love with someone but only with the idea of love,relationships,etc but worry not guys his saturn return will awaken the true daddy in him and he'll be ready to take total responsibilities of a person and know what love is and what he actually needs in a relationship.
So maybe 2 years later tarot readers can also start saying that his fs is younger than him because his views about life would be evolved by then.
Now continuing with the age gap thing....its really trippy but his fs can be really young compared to him but an adult ofc because he wouldn't be sexualizing anyone so young as he knows what it feels like to go through it.
The conclusion for me is that his fs is a foreigner and younger than him(more young than people can imagine👀)
I'd love to read your opinions on this and please reply with a longer text because I've never written so much for any ask and if you do so my cramped fingers will be at ease.if youvdont mind i'd like to be the ✌️anon
Hello Anon!! Wow that was so long and I just woke up but I love seeing people that passionate, I’m the same about what I love (Gemini moon 8H you know 😂)… so!! I 100% agree with you. To be honest this is what I thought:
His spouse IS def younger than him. I don’t wanna make assumptions about the age gap because we can’t really be that precise until it really happens. But already seeing so many signs she will be younger is already a good sign. So I wanted to say she is younger than him but the theory could go two ways: 1. she could appear extremely young compared to her age because it happened to some people already! For ex, I noticed people with cancer placement have these kind of experiences in their life, and his Personal DC is in Cancer so it wouldn’t shock if she had this.
2. OR she could def be younger than him, like wow damn. Haha (I hope not the same as the people there because 39 yrs? JK?!)
To be honest I mostly focused on the BPC last time and I didn’t wanna put things around his Natal Chart or other persona chart because I’m currently preparing a whole analysis about his Future Spouse in his natal chart! I’m studying hard these days haha, but I’ll keep your theory in my notes too!
I’ll also look for it in his Juno PC lol!
Thank you a lot for your devotion!!
Have a nice day ❤️

Idol Zoro headcanon
Tumblr media
-So I was wondering what sort of artiste Zoro would be. I have already decided that Sanji would be Britney with traces of Beyoncé, Eren would be Christina. Ezreal would be like Justin Bieber. I decided to make Zoro like Usher with elements of Jay-Z. I initially envisioned him as just a rapper but after watching a YouTube video with Mackenyu singing and hitting dem falsettos, I thought that Zoro would be a sexy RnB singer
- Loads of songs about sex. Not shocking considering who his lover is though Sanji beats him in that department
- His parents are Japanese immigrants
- He was bullied as a kid thanks to his mixed heritage
- His father was married before and had three kids Kuina, Johnny and Yosaku. He is close to his half siblings
- He is the youngest in the Roronoa household which explains why he is so spoiled at times
- He hated his dad Arashi for being a toxic, abusive father
- He and his mum Tera had a rocky relationship due to his wild antics. Still she spoiled her son rotten. Also she was not that present in Zoro’s life which made him resent her for years
- Like Zoro got into trouble when he was younger because it was that difficult to tame him. He got up to all kinds of mischief and would openly flirt with boys but would sleep with none of them
- He met Griffith when he was 13 and lost his virginity to him. Their relationship was toxic and Griffith abused him to the point where Zoro snapped and they got into a violent fight at a club which got them both arrested. Zoro was a movie star by this point
- Arashi would re-enter his life a changed man by this point and his conversation with him changed Zoro and tamed him completely and also made him the cold hearted manipulative King that he currently is
- Zoro was in Gear V for a while before leaving to do his own thing
- Despite the ups and downs, his relationship with Sanji is considered a blessing for both of them
- He went solo the year after the Griffith incident and that was the best thing to happen to him
- He struggled with his sexuality and had an identity crisis til he met Sanji
- He had a mental breakdown after Griffith came back into his life to wreck havoc that Sanji stepped up and destroyed Griffith on his behalf
- His drinking habits are quite legendary
- He has a massive male fanbase for obvious reasons
- As he gets older and gets more muscular, fanboys drool over him
- Don’t be fooled by his cool looks, he can be quite a sexy tease and is as wild as Sanji when he is in a good mood
- He meditates a lot
- He and Sanji are both very competitive and often surprise each other with their various music projects
- When it comes to making love to Sanji, he no longer holds back. Yes he is that wild in bed. God forbid if he is drunk that day
- He rivals Sanji in the Best Ass in the world department. Yup he too got a famous butt that everyone loves
- He is a bit of a pervert especially around Sanji xD
- He eats a lot though Luffy is far worse
- His in-universe nicknames are King Bee, Z (Gossip Girl refers to him as that), King Z, Mr Controversy (because of his dark and murky past that continues to haunt him), Marimo (only Sanji is allowed to call him that), Zee Zee (Sukuna calls him this affectionately every once in a while)
- He has a weakness for fiesty blondes *coughs* Sanji *coughs*
