i think if people look back at all of this, the amount of people trying to suppress my voice, the amount of people Not believing a victim, the amount of people who want me to shut up about it- i dont think history is gonna look as kindly upon yall as you might hope.
#also this situation ^ is the exact reason ik yall werent actually leftists and why this decent towards the right was predictable.#yall really treated this situation with just 'vibes'. and prefering 'vibes' over truth is something fascists do too so......... idk bud.#im not surprised you like hamas and wont kick out the neo nazis. at all.#even LESS surprised you think the rape was ok bc ik plenty of yall thought to yourself 'even if comickit did sexually abuse him i think#it was a GOOD THING actually' yknow... even though i had to deal w a lot of csa... surely i deserve 'more punishment' for ????? reasons.#for ig believing in shit that only really negatively effected me and no one around you you care about.#if anything the only person effected was my sister and maybe brother bc for some reason they both think im smarter than them#and dumber than them and basically im only smart when they agree with me and found a home for their bigotry in conspiracy theories#so they naturally drifted that direction. so. truly. IM the only one who was effected. whatya know. karma took care of it and#none of you had to do shit but since you did now YOU will face karma for believing lies and trying to ostracize me. enjoy.#i hope it rocks your shit so bad you feel nothing else but to try to crawl back to me and apologize and realize where you fucked up.#ALSO wild ppl thinking rw cis men are safer than me since like. im 99% sure the only reason ppl believe my abuser about what they say#about me is bc they think my proximity to conspiracy theories somehow makes it more true????? idk.#do rw beliefs & conspiracy theories taint people and make them untrustworthy or not bc you're giving me mixed messages here bud#tbqh i think yall just want a reason to hate me and are too stubborn about being asked to introspect that you cant realize it.

Nsfw alphabet headcanons about the rise brothers would be great!
HIIIII!!!! okay so i decided to pick out three for each brother cause if i did all 26 questions for each brother it would be a little much for me right now! i may revisit a whole one for each brothers :3
Pairing: Rise! Brothers x reader (separately) genre: smut Pronouns: no actual pronouns but fem genitalia Word count:didnt count warnings: cussin' and sex lol did not proofread
LEO
A- Aftercare (what theyre like afterwards)
2nd best out of the brothers (Raph is the best) Runs you a bath before you even ask, he has snacks, towels, water and everything you could want in his room already!
I- Intimacy (how are they during the moment? The romantic aspect of it)
Super super romantic, literally no jokes whatsoever. As he ages he eases up but as of right now hes very intimate and romantic! He thinks sex and sexual intimacy is sacred and needs to be serious !
W-Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)
He only likes to be a power bottom! He feels he has wayyyyyyy more control from the bottom than on top! He also thinks you being on top is super fucking hot
RAPH:
B- Body (what their favorite body part is of themselves and their partner)
His arms!!! Fucking thick as a log, hes very proud how much he can manhandle you with his arms and how he can hold you down or in any position with one arm!
Your thighs, he loves how they look when you sit down, have a tight skirt on, how his dick feels being slide between them, how fucking soft they are!
N-No (something they wouldnt do)
Public sex or bathroom public sex. He thinks its hot but he cant handle his noises or his size in public, it would be too obvious too quick and hes too nervous to be caught!
X-X-ray (lets see whats going on under those clothes)
HOLY SHIT FUXKING BIG AS FUCK!!!!!! Literally thickness of a coke can and the length of a normal human forearm!!!!!!!! No but fr the girth is what gets you hurtin’. You two have to prep your pussy for hourrrrssss before even attempting to slide his dick in
DONNIE
C - Cum (anything to do with cum)
He cums so much and it’s so thick and goopy and hot and-
He loves cumming in you and on you, depending on horny and situation level. If yall are in public he’s cumming in you so it drips out of you and he also does it commonly in the bedroom.
He cums on you primarily if its a quickie so he can just wipe it up and you wont have to worry bout your panties being soaked! How sweet of him <3
F- Favorite position
Mating press and doggy and i will not be expanding on this it just feels right!!!!
K-Kink (one or more of their kinks)
Literally breeding, body worship, overstim, panty sniffing, choking, collars & leashes, and -
He has so many, i believe hes the most adventurous in the bedroom! Mikey being second, raph and then leo <3
MIKEY
D- Dirty Secret (a dirty secret of theirs)
Is a panty stealer, literally sneaks dirty and clean underwear. He loves it, he primarily jerks off with them on his dick but will sometimes sniff it or stuff it in his mouth while jerkin it
L-Location (their favorite place to do it)
The bathroom!!!! Loves the counters and how creative you have to be while fucking in the bathroom. Also loves tub and shower sex! Mans is a freak fr but he just loves making the bathroom humid from stuff other than hot water ;)
Z-ZZZ (how fast do they fall asleep after?) 
Hes out, the second yall are done hes out. Hes so bad at aftercare and i know he has that whole alter ego but it just feels right!!!!!! Hes a sleepy guy :’)

More DSB headcanons (because I wanna)
- Cardinal is either surprisingly docile or incredibly violent with criminals/rogues/villains. No in between
- Tim will just mail random shit to people he doesn't like (rats to Ra's, roaches to Lex, a card that tells the Joker to "fuck off and die in an alley")
- He has run into Lady Shiva at some point and has surprised her with the fact that he knows some of her moves (idk if you know but he trained with Lady Shiva for a little bit in canon)
- His accent switches on occasion to something totally random
- He gets weirdly calm during rogue attacks, and it freaks the Batfam out because "how the fuck can this bratty rich kid do this so well???"
- Not specifically DSB but he plays Project Sekai because it helps with hand eye coordination
-🎭��
(no this is definitely not because I saw the post that you had 11 asks and I wanna change that)
OHH Love these- and thank you for filling my ask box, always appreciated <333 ____________________
True! Though Cardinal doesn't actually deal with rouges as often (the bats are always quick to cover that front and they try not to cross work paths unless nessicary, aka why the riddler fight was so far "from the usual") They are the silent hand behind the scene, and the ocassional "ghost of christmas future" like with Arthur.
The most "docile" Cardinal is, is towards Catwoman where they will pop in on her mid robbery, just stare for a sec- and then dip. And the most agressive probably with Black Mask/Joker (which yall will see eventually :) ______________________
Not something I considered before, and id say Tim has definently fucked with old foes for the hell of it- BUT he does specifically avoid anything close to the leauge, The last thing he wants is to be on Ra's radar on top of all the other bs he deals with.
But mailing bananna cream pies with small explosives to a joker hideout?? Yes. ________________________
YES- I actually touched on this a little bit (the training not the meeting) but I do think they've run into eachother. But that Shiva, unlike most of the other villains/antagonistic characters- seeing behind the mask? She was interested- but left it alone
MUCH to Tims utter relief. __________________________
Yes. Elaboration not needed, though I will say he rarely slips up when hes "in the zone" but relaxed?? You best believe he's suddenly french ________________________________
Actually? Kind of normal for Gotham- I find it wild that growing up in a city with like a 40000% higher than natioal adv crime rate, that you ARENT in some way numb to it all.
Its less common in the elite because well, they have money to stay away from it all. But its not TOO out there- its just that "Huh guess Timothy is one of us more than we thought??- wild" _____________________________
Tim is like me in the sense of "cant-play-games-alone" or else painfully aware of every milisecond ticking by that you arent being "productive" (exception being minecraft)
But game night @ Obis?? You best believe that Alan is a GOD at beat saber, and show him Project Sekai??? Hes going to make it a personal challenge ____________________________

I live in the Midwestern US and we get a lot of tornadoes every year. some states/areas more than others. but because it's so normal, you'll often hear of folks going out to watch them from their yard
oh! we also have monthly tornado siren testing. the day varies depending on your area/state...so like once a month all of a sudden you'll just hear a siren off in the distance and think "ah, shit..." only to realize it's the first (x)day of the month.
today was the day for my area—scared the crap outta me before I realized what day it was 🙃
my mind genuinely, truly, cannot comprehend the wild wonders of the US of A.
i cant believe thats normal; i also understand why they need to do the siren testing which im glad they do! cant have the geography turning against yall and yall not having anything to let each other know shit’s up, yk?
and like i hope ur all safe 😭 idk how ppl cope w tornadoes - do yall got bunkers? safe zones? but yea hhhh
with all my love, hope you’re safe n sound !!!

THE ACCIDENTAL POLAROID- 21- FINALE::: it's like a polaroid love ( written::: 0.5K )
Tumblr media Tumblr media
'Where are you taking me, Chae?!' You screamed blindfolded as you felt your three friends around you, leading you out of Hueningkai's broken car.
'Ssh! It's a surprise', she replied, taking your hand and pulling you into a room. 'I swear to God if you're kidna-' your voice died down as Sunoo removed the blindfold and you were met with the somewhat familiar surroundings of... Hungry Jungle diner.
You stood there, frozen in your spot and feeling tensed because you knew who'd be there. The guy you'd met (? sort of ) in this place. The exact one standing on the small stage staring into your eyes.
The silence was broken by Chaewon gently tugging at your hand and leading you to an empty table. You quickly looked away from him, embarrassed. Who thought it'll be a good idea to bring you here? You could almost kill your friends if only you didn't love them so much.
Heeseung cleared his throat, catching your attention, 'The last song for today is my uh own song and it's written for a special someone. I hope yall enjoy it.'
A soft melody filled the place as he started singing but his eyes were on you.
Why am I relying on to love?
It's obvious feeling anyway
I believed I would know everything
I guess it as trap that I fell for even I knew it
You couldn't help but blush at his voice and the sweet lyrics. Maybe giving the letter wasn't that bad of an idea. Even if the room was filled with people, for you, the chatter died down almost like you and Heeseung were the only ones.
It's like a polaroid love
It's not going my way
I don't even have any trendy filter
But I love that vibe
He finished it, a small hopeful smile on his face. Heeseung muttered a small thank you and bowed before leaving the stage.
Alarmed, you quickly got up, following him as he walked towards through the back door. 'Yah Lee Heeseung!'
He stopped in his tracks. This wasn't part of the plan. He had planned to properly confess to you after the night ended, not like this. 'You can't just walk away after singing that song and making me go crazy.'
He turned around to face you but before he could say anything, you ran up to him, pulling him into a kiss. His eyes widened but he slowly melted into it, pulling you closer by the waist.
You didn't even know what had gotten into you but there you were kissing him out of the blue, a thousand butterflies going wild in your stomach.
'I'm sorr-' '- sorry.' You both burst out into laughter, faces still close to each other. Heeseung caressed your cheek. 'Soooo, what do you say, girlfriend, let's get out of here', he suggested.
You playfully shoved him, 'Who said I was your girlfriend, polaroid boy?!'
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Prev | Masterlist
SUMMARY- Lee Heeseung doesn't believe in love at first sight but what happens when he accidentally clicks a polaroid of a girl at the local diner? A girl he can't seem to get out of his mind.
Will he be able to return you the polaroid or will love follow him along the way?
GENRE- smau with written parts, college!au, strangers to lovers, fluff, crack, angst (veryyy slight), slight love triangle

woohoo !! didnt except to respond to this whole essay (for more context, im talking about the document jay made about the drama in the kaeloo fandom lol) considering the fact that its basically just 222 pages of insults towards random (and especially her mental state -who tf do you think you are btw) and then pretending to be a saint by randomly saying "b-but ! i dont h-hate you guys 🥺". i knew that this whole "call-out post" would be bullshit, but thats just low. really, really low. i figured that you and your little friends (or should i refer to yall as a cult too ? since we're going in the extremes :)) were mostly just here to insult people and play the victims, but i didnt think it would be that bad. i wont say much about whats in the document because i think its randoms place to do so, since its basically just a long ass diss to her, but i still wanted to write a short response. am i allowed to though ? i mean, as a teen (even if im 18 in a few months, ive been called underage in your document so ill go with that) i can draw and read explicit content to explore my sexuality 🥺🥺 but i cant think for myself right ? :/ thats too bad. i cant agree with my friends because that would also mean that im a yes-man and that im being manipulated or wtv helps you sleep at night lol
this is just to respond to the little part that has been directly adressed to me: if my answers are short when the drama is brought up its because...i actually dont give that much of a fuck about the drama itself. do i think that you guys are gross for writing and drawing porn of children and animals ? yes, i do. would i care if you just stayed in your own server to share that shit to your "safe place" ? absolutely not. you do you. that is none of my problems if you dont bring it up in a space you share with KIDS. thats the whole problem with you. you posted your disgusting content in websites where kids will obviously find. as an adult, you must be really naive to think that they will just read your warning and think: oh yeah !! ill just move on to a new fic :3 !!
they are kids. this is a kid show. obviously, you are sharing your fandom with kids, and you have to be careful about that. that is your responsibility, whether you like it or not. you cannot except to be appreciated and respected when you write porn about kids, in a fandom full of kids. if you genuinely, truly believe that everyone should accept you for that...then man, theres nothing i can do for you. but you know, you could share your things since you cherish them so much in patreon or in your discord server if its too explicit, but ao3 ? wattpad ? the stm ? those are FILLED with young teens. i can't believe you're whining about having to respect rules to coexist in a fandom of a show about kids with kids...wild
again, this is my OPINION. i cannot force you to not like...well, the things that you like... but i can definitely call you out if you're sharing that to kids, even if its indirectly and that you put warnings or whatever. you need to be cautious about the members of the fandom. if you're unhappy about this, then leave the space that isnt for you.
as i said, this happens in many fandoms filled with minors: bunch of adults are weird. they're being called out for being weird. they cry about it and create a group. they call people who call them weird, weird. its really common. thats why the center of the drama isnt new or interesting to me. thats why i dont write essays whenever it is brought up in the main server, or when nsfw fics were posted there. creeps exist in EVERY FANDOMS. do i still think its good to call them out ? totally. but that explain why i:
1. didn't really say anything when jay were posting their fics. since they agreed with us on the topic of kaeloo fics with nsfw but still were posting them, i figured out that there was not point in arguing. i just ignored the weird parts of the stories or simply didnt read anything. i dont like conflicts, and had a lot going on (still do), so i didnt speak about it before. thats my bad though: even if jay wouldnt have cared because they have a different opinion than me about aging up characters apparently, i shouldve said something whenever i had the chance and not only when the subject of fics with porn was brought up, and i take full responsibility. but you must know that i do not support those type of works and never have said that i do. whenever we spoke about it, i made it very clear that it was gross and that i dont agree with it at all. to tlak about jay's fics again, i mostly was enthusiastic about all the parts where sex wasnt involved (about the ss of me talking about jays fic about pregnancy, i loved seeing how mr cat and kae would act as soon-to-be parents ! i think its cute !! do not mean that i agree with writing full scenes about how that child is made).
jay has great ideas, thats why i liked their work so much. i will never pretend that i hate EVERYTHING that they do. theyve wrote and drew great stuff, and just because i dont agree with them as a person doesnt mean that ill ignore that or the compliments that ive given to them. i admire a lot of their work and didnt lie about any nice things ive said to them. this is not all white or all black.
2. didnt write really big responses in the STM. this is a server about kaeloo. the drama isnt really brought up there, except when its important or at the start of it. with college, job, family issues and the start of adulthood soon, i do not have time to be on discord in the first place. either im here for a brief moment, or i can be active when everyone is asleep so they already said everything i had in mind and all i can say is "yes" to messages i agree with and "no" to messages i dont. you do not know me, and if you genuinely believe that this is all i think about what is happening, then you're just extremely stupid...obv i wont talk about everything i think in details in the STM, or rub it in your face.
the only reason why im involved is because you're harassing my friend and i do not want her to suffer alone. its as simple as that. i will always support my friends in public, and correct them in private if i think they did something wrong. is random perfect ? do i think that she does no wrong ? ofc not. i'll always tell her if i think that she's not doing something right, the only difference is that i'll tell her in private, not in a discord server. how do you except anyone to listen to you if you already don't respect them enough to confront them privately and privately only ?
i think ive spoken for my part and i will not speak for any other people involved in this ridiculous drama. i think this is all really a personal issue with random (and also khamil apparently) and i do not believe that it's my place to speak for any of them. as i think your friend said, which i think is true, im not relevant in this drama, and again im just really here to support random but also to express myself when i think that its a general matter.
so ill conclude this by saying that this is a really disappointing document. posting the insults that have been told to my friend, for no reasons other than hurting her, giving her a few really serious and uncalled for diagnosis, posting her vents from when she was a teen to make her feel vulnerable, posting hateful and ableist comments about her publicly, posting comments of people insulting vulnerable members who need to vent and more...that is so, so petty.
jay, i didnt know you for long and we weren't super close, but i still liked you a lot (/p ofc). i know you'd love to think that you're the victim and that we are all just shit talkers who hated you or whatever, but that is not the case. reading the messages of the drama after the drama has been shocking. reading your tumblr posts, reading what your friends said to my friend, reading your document, all of that have been so disappointing. not here to play violins and act dramatic btw, this is just a fact i wanted to share.
theres a lot of things unsaid, but i think that it's really random's place to speak about it, not me or anyone else. id like to respect her opinion in all of this, so ive only really spoken about what i generally think :] !! that being said, i wont post this seriously about whats going on anymore except if i need to, thats why im blocking a few people too. i want to enjoy my post without child porn being rubbed in my face. i really feel like all this other part of the fandom wants is attention, so i wont focus my whole tumblr on them lol, but calling them out is still important to me. i dont except them to change their ways since they look so sure of themselves, but anyone can dream, right ? sorry about how disorganised it is, or if my english is bad and also for my spelling mistakes lmao 🤸🤸 ty for reading this far though !! please check out random's response when it comes out !!

★ !! ANIMALISTIC ₊˚
. . .
being lost in an unknown forest so far from your clan that you meet an ometecaiya ☘️
warnings!!: sharp fangs, knife, blood/scrathes, slow burn ?
Note 📝- thank you guys for the support on the last post !! Also i wrote this at 1am..sorry if its rough 😓💗
neteyam x fem!reader
`✦ ˑ ִֶ 𓂃⊹..
you were lost in a big, dangerous forest. And you had a couple of marks and scratches here and there. in your clan your known as the brave and risky one..but youll never admit that you're terrified right now. Everything looked the same, there were no paths just wild life. Night was setting and you can get attacked by anything anytime right now.. but then suddenly you hear someone or something stepping on a branch. You turn around quickly, holding your knife in your hand with heavy breathe.
oh eywa..
the creature reveals himself and- a boy? your instincts tell you to hiss at him so you do, tail flicking in a protective stance..but its just out of shock and fear. The boy dosent react and tilts his head to the side, probably wondering where you even came from. He notices your tail movements and your posture, you teeth were sharper than usual. You seemed a bit more animalistic than the other na'vi. This was ometecayia property, his hand was on his knife aswell just in case youll attack but..he was gentle with you because you guys looked the same age.
'..are you alright?' he asks, his voice curious but genuinely concerned when he sees your scars and blood
You dont answer just nod slowly ..
'where did you come from?' he asks, referring to your clan and how you got here. He was serious.
'.. tarayngi" you mumble..a bit embarrassed that you got lost, your ears pointing down
'im Neteyam, ometecayia.' he says with a small smile , he can tell your nervous and scared so hes trying to be easy on you but in reality hes just as shocked as you are.
'do you need help? '
'im alright.' you say, even tho you needed the help. You need food, water, shelter. A safe place.
It was silent for a second, but the boy didnt believe you one bit.
'you seem injured .'
You gulp.
'here, let me take you to our clan.' he softly grabs your hand..and you hesitate.
'please, trust me. i wont hurt you'
Your eyes stare into his..you nod. I mean what could go wrong? Hes just a boy that seems around the same age as you and is friendly.
You and neteyam enter the village and he brings you to his father.
'dad- sir i found a lost girl.' he says, switching the name he calls his own father (sorry yall☹️.)
After explaining what happened, Jake and Neytiri let you stay for a night and tomorrow they'll bring you back home. You felt relived that you didn't have to spend the night in a dangerous forest alone.
'do you need tsahik?' neteyam tilts his head at you with a soft look
'no- im fine..' you say, tail flicking a bit.
night finally comes, the sky getting dark but being brighten up with the millions of stars. You were excited for tomorrow, to go home..but theres one problem.
There arent any mauri or hammocks left.
'shit- uhm.' neteyam mumbles to himself
'..there arent any hammocks left.'
Your eyes widen slightly..
'oh' you stand there akwaradly, not sure what to say
Jake, neteyams father then walks in and looks at neteyam then you
'sorry but you two will have to sleep next to each other ' jake says, his voice calm..as if its not a big deal and then leaves.
what in mother eywa. I cant sleep next to someone i barely know. Neteyam turns his head to look at you
'hey, if youd like i can sleep on the floor' he says, he didn't want to make you feel uncomfortable.
You wanted to say yes but you felt bad. Hes done so much for you just for him to sleep on a cold hard floor
'no- its alright. Youll get cold'
you say, your voice hoarse.
Neteyam smiles at you , finding you gesture generous
'okay.'
You both get in the hammock, luckily it was pretty big so it could fit two people. You bodies were akwaradly pretty close..you turn to the other side.
'goodnight, teyam.' you say..you already gave him a nickname. a smile creeps on his face at the name.
thats cute..
he thinks before replying
'goodnight.' he says back, turning to the other side
SHOULD I MAKE A PART TWO?? 😼

ill speak my fucking truth, the TUA s4 ending was BULLSHIT.
alright alright, i get yall's issues ab five and lila, but i also understand it to some extent.
but one thing we can all agree on is how full of plot holes, unanswered questions, and how shitty of an ending we've got. also, it was so fucking rushed! hell.
to address the ending; why the fuck? why? why would our comfort characters cease to fucking exist? in all timelines, they've fought so hard to build good lives. it was bound to be ruined, but them to fucking cease to exist? thats wild!
and alright what about the other kids with marigold? (?) there were about what, 40+(?) born, right? where are they? this cant be real.
to address some other plot holes..
ray: what do you MEAN he just.. walked out on allison? they loved each other dearly, we sidnt get a fucking explanation?
sissy, SLOANE??: what, did these characters just disappear into thin air? if ray is alive, why couldn't sissy be, too? mostly after the big part harlan played in the third season. also, where the fuck did sloane go? so ben survived, but sloane just, what? disintegrated??? turned into pure marigold? hell.
ben?: why is no one talking about him? his love story was rushed, his motives were a bit stupid (not entirely, so i could excuse this), also he just fucking died and nobody seemed to actually care? klaus had little to no reaction and he was the closest to ben? what the hell is going on?
viktor: we ve gotten none of his backstory. we see a supposedly ex gf of his at the start, and they say he s getting every girl in town. what is he, afraid of commitment? a player? not able to sort his priorities? also, how come he didn't suffer any consequence after literally sucking those particles out of ben!? i mean, his body's got a fuck ton of marigold, and in theory when coming into contact with that bs particle; he should've what, exploded!?
reggie: how and why is reggie for once, supposedly nice? until now he played a role snd at the evnd revealed a facade and it being some evil plan. this time over though, what we see is what we get. he trusted viktor, he followed up on his word, gave him time, gave him chances, called so many times, and in the end, told his wife that he wishes to save it and couldnt believe it was her behind it. so why is he no longer evil? what's up with that?
jennifer: soo why was she inside a squid? what happened to her parents? how did she get that power? why is she destined to meet ben? erremmm.. so many plot holes w her.
commision: (i might be very wrong here and not remember the past seasons, feel free correct me if im wrong.) but ure telling me, that in NO timeline the commision still exists? lila and five have managed to travel through hundreds of them over the span of 6.5 years. and all of this, none of those timelines were helpful? or.. anything at all? i wish their arc wasnt so rushed, maybe more ppl would see through it. it didnt feel like 7 years. it felt like 2 months.
diego: throughout the season we see him getting clowned on for being a "failure" and being "fat" only for him to look the same, fucking ripped too, and be normal, react like a normal person would. he was a good, hard working father and good husband with pure intentions. what was all that for?
claire: i need to see more of her. we know klaus' been sober for 3 yrs, but its been 6. which menas that claure has seen that "bad, sick" side of klaus. we see her know how to recognise that he was relapsing. i wish we saw more of her childhood, her with allison and how she got so closs to klaus.
it all was so rushed. idk ill add more if i remember more chat.
if any of you want to see me address lila and five, i've made other posts. i think their arc was important, not necessarily asked for, but justified, too. i'll folloe up with more posts and answer questions. no hate here.. js opinions:).

a rant
So Ive been thinking, and Ive been thinking about this a lot but never actually did anything about it.
Ive been dealing with social anxiety disorder for years and been to therapy for years, and I managed to work on most everything that impacted my life. Can you believe I didnt wear some clothes for years cause someone said something funny about it and I got anxious? Too anxious to wear it? Wild.
But I feel like F1 has become this monolith of anxiety for me, and Ive been avoiding watching it for a good year. Its just about things that could happen, like crashes, or what people might say about my guys and how it effects me. Social anxiety fucked up my brain yall.
But the worst thing you can actually do is avoid the thing youre scared of because it turns into that huuuuge fucking thing. The more I avoided it the more Ive been anxious.
But I love the sport, especially the guys? So I still care, cant sleep at times when its on cause anxious, and where do I get my daily dose of F1 from? The most biased sources on earth.
Social media.
At the end of the day I couldnt care less what Sophie from down the street thinks about Max. Or even my mutuals say about Charles, Daniel, Lando whoever.
That doesnt effect me. At all.
So I want to try to confront my fear and just try to enjoy this shitshow of a sport I love to get to terms with myself.
If I end up not liking it anymore, I atleast have closure.
I try not to delete this, so we will see about that.

okay so in one of my poll post yall said yes to me talking about the fics i have without spoilers (it isn't done yet as I'm writing this BUT I'm a lil impatient and i want to talk [or type kasjkdh])
Alright Lets go
Number 1: Time is Going in Circles
Alright so i already finished this one but its like 4 pages long and i didn't write like "Chapter one" and "Chapter 2" etc. and i feel like its kinda short and needs more story but its too long to be a oneshot but time to talk about it
So its pretty much where Emmet is stuck in a time loop in when Armamageddon happens and slowly while I'm writing he kinda goes insane and is willing to do anything (As in ANYTHING) to get out and he slowly just loses any care for human life (his love for his friends kinda fade since they don't believe him when he told them he's in a time loop but he still cares for them) since if they die oh well the time will just reset why worry? I already know how it ends but I'm gonna keep you in suspense :] *Evil laugh*
Number 2: The Exciting Afterlife Of Emmet Brickowski
So basically Emmet dies
Number 3: It takes t-
Just kidding with ya imma tell ya more about ghost Brickowski So pretty much as I said Emmet dies and turns into a ghost, and since its in chapter 1 its kinda like not spoiler ish? so the reason he dies is that Lucy and the gang kinda broke into the construction and then something something Emmet falls, Benny tries to save him fails Emmet dead. Emmet kinda fell from a really high height and hit his head too hard and dies. Lucy lead that break in so she kinda feels responsible for his death
He then becomes a ghost and since he hit his head in his death he kinda has amnesia and doesn't remember his death but the first people he sees are Lucy and the gang (Benny, Unikitty, batman,Metalbeard) and feels a connection to them. Still, he doesn't know why (Maybe cause they're responsible for his death lkvkjs) but he feels especially connected to Lucy. He doesn't know why (Cause she caused his death) and then he follows them around and saves them from capture then like 2 years later he finds Lucy about to fall down a hole. Hence, he pushes her away (with ghost powers, he feels more solid in the construction site cause The Piece of Resistance is there and it makes him more alive or something) and falls in the hole but since The Piece of Resistance makes him more solid he kinda cant fly away and go ghost, he meets Lucy and doesn't know why she looks so scared. Then pretty much the movie happens but with ghost stuff and guilt ig
Number 3(actually): It takes two
So uh how do i explain this dhshash
So Rex time travels but messes up and ends up in the same body with Emmet chaos ensues it kinda goes like the movie but not actually. Rex may or may not try to kill the others so yeah
Number 4 Oneshot: Trying to move on (and not looking back)
So pretty much Lucy tries to get over Emmet's death (Rex timeline) Thats pretty much all i can say xlckjlk
Number 5
Okay i know i said 4 but uh this is an au of an au and an au if that makes sense
So pretty much Alter Ego au by @thinknamewhat x The Anti Lego Movie by also Thinknamewhat but all i got for this au is that Ryan just becomes Erix and becomes nice all the interesting dialogue is
"Dangervest thats really your name?" A patron asked
Ryan wanted to smack him, who ask that type of questions? But he forced a smile, have to stay nice it would be embarrassing if they found out that he was Ryan
"Yeah got it from my dad really wild guy"
Okay so i kinda got an idea on how this geas now that i wrote that but uhhh its still kinda boring
Uh i kinda (?) have other aus but its just Thinknamewhat au x The Anti lego movie asjnxc
Anyways hope you guys liked my talk see you guys in idk alaska or 2085

I'm not really familiar with Owen, could you please make a post about what he did/siad? The khh/krnb industry is so wild it's hard to keep up with everyone andd everything they do/have done😂
Whew....where do I even start? It's actually a long laundry list.
So the most recent was when he said he doesn't care about BLM at the height of the protests during the pandemic. He said bascally "yall cant cancel me. I'm still getting money" or whatever. He eventually apologized after many people called him out. This is literally the only thing he's ever apologized for. So on one hand I believe him cause he DOESN'T EVER apologize for anything. No matter HOW bad his reputation and hate gets. But on the other hand I kinda wonder did the heat just get WAY too intense this time and so he gave a fake apology.
His other controversies include:
Saying "why do you guys care. you're not here parents." when a mkitrain member (neil) tried to get or did get nudes from a minor
Said he wants to "rape white bitches"
and honestly? I think there's more. I'm not even gonna lie but I can't remember them all. However, these are the really extreme ones that most people really hate him for and rightfully so.
I also don't like him but I kinda just try to ignore him now cause I got tired of talking about all the crazy, terrible shit he does.
While I HAVE publicly acknowledged that he was nice, polite, and humble when some acquaintances I met in Korea approached him in Hongdae one night* , I AM NOT a fan or apologist of his. I honestly lowkey regret even putting that out there and HEAVILY debated whether I should say it or not before posting. However, it was after a lot of people were surprised/annoyed that him and Ph-1 were friends again and I was trying to give context to why people in the industry will still tolerate his presence or even befriend him. I was shocked he wasn't a complete dickhead IRL tbh.
In addition, that was one experience that made me realize why some fans (and other rappers) will defend certain people (especially Owen) so hard. Cause I DEFINITELY used to be one of those "OMG so and so still has fans??? How is that even possible?" type of people. It's possible they met these people IRL before (obviously not in all cases) and had nothing but good experiences. So I was trying to basically convey that information to other people to help them understand a bit better. I feel like if something is true there's no reason to not say it but I still halfway feel like sometimes it can be unnecessary to say even if something is the truth. Regardless, I don't think that came off the way I really wanted it to. I think it might be something people have to experience personally like I did OR just be on a platform where long form text can add more nuance. Twitter is VERY bad for nuance LOL. Even if you make a thread, the first post ALWAYS gets more views than the subsequent ones so many people will miss the details/nuance even if you go out of your way too add it.
So ANYWAY, I just wanted to go more in depth here while we're on the topic of Owen just in case anybody remembers that tweet about him from not that long ago.
*this was a LONG time ago in Summer 2019. I've never had any direct interaction with him cause I ACTIVELY couldn't stand him back then but I wanted to observe the KHH scene while I was there so I observed everybody whether I liked them or not. Also, the acquaintances told me what happened in the conversation when they left and came back to where I was sitting. Just to be clear. These acquaintances were ALSO not fans of Owen and one didn't know who he was at all. One knew who he was but didn't know much about him. They saw him perform earlier that night. Hence why they approached.

ok here it is, my comprehensive post that i will be working on in chunks, aka
HOW SAW 7 COULD HAVE BEEN A GOOD MOVIE
(or: The version of this film that exists in my head is so cool yall cant you see-)
Contents:
What makes it so bad?
The Hoffman problem
The intro was almost interesting
Two Survivors, or: how to make the murders in this movie Matter
First off, let me say that I watched Saw 7 very recently for the first time as I've been watching my way through the series in preparation for Saw X, and the jump in quality between 6 and 7 is pretty goddamn wild. I'm not the first person to say this, but 6 is - in my opinion- one of the most interesting and compelling movies in the franchise, and it seemed like the start of a newer, more interesting trajectory that 7 then immediately tanked. How is this? Why is this? What made Saw 7 the worst movie to date, more so than any others, and why was that so much different than any of the previous- admittedly campy and schlocky- movies in the series?
1.) What makes it so bad?
It's been pretty universally agreed upon that the Saw series is, with utmost affection, kind of a trashy mess. For the most part, that's not actually to the movies' detriment- there's a lot of things ABOUT that mess that make up part of the movies' unique charm. Things like overly elaborate traps, characters making genuinely unfathomably bad decisions that lead to their gory demise, or contrived ass-pull twists at the end of the movie are consistent throughout the series and I find that a lot of criticism that focuses on these aspects misses that they're part of the enjoyment of Saw. To make a Saw movie without bad decisions, insanely (unnecessarily) elaborate traps or last-minute left-field plot twists would, to some degree, be to strip the Saw franchise of its identity.
What makes saw 7 BAD, then? What is it that it does so differently than any of the previous movies, and why doesn't it work?
I'd say I'd boil it down to a handful of points, as follows:
The turn from practical effects to digital in service of the '3D' aspect
The nebulously connected plots which feel largely disjointed and lack significant impact on each other
The jumbled pacing and confusing time period for the movie
Nearly every secondary character just full stop does not matter and is flat at best
Several of these undoubtedly all trace back to the fact that saw 7 was always intended to be two movies, and you can feel it bursting to fit too many plot points into too short of a runtime. In the span of only an hour and a half, we're supposed to be able to tie off the loose ends of Mark Hoffman and Jill Tuck, witness the rise of another heir to the Jigsaw title, and follow the B-plot revolving around a supposed Jigsaw survivor and his gauntlet of tests. And frankly, they just did not have enough time to do all of the above. So the first and most important step to solving the movie would be to do what had always meant to be done with this franchise: to chop it in half and make two different movies out of it.
2.) The Hoffman Problem
Mark Hoffman was, I will be honest, one of the best things about Saw 6. One of the most enjoyable parts of 6 was watching his rise and downfall, and the ending of 6 left a huge, glistening sequel hook with Hoffman escaping the trap Jill placed him in, ready to rampage and seek revenge. And then in 7, he.
Uh. He sort of just. Doesn't do much of anything until the last 15 minutes or so.
This, I think, is the worst problem with the movie: because it had to do so much, there is a huge portion of time where both Hoffman and Jill simply... don't have anything to do. We're left to believe Hoffman is the one carrying out all the tests happening over the course of the movie, which.... doesn't really make sense? His supposed motive is, of course, that he wants to get Jill before she reveals his identity. And this, of course, falls apart under even the briefest of prodding. So his plan was.... do a bunch of murder to get the cops out of the police station, so he could break in and kill Jill. And the cops simply... never expected this, and also didn't anticipate that Hoffman, a former cop, might have access to their security systems?
So my proposal #1 for fixing Saw 7 is pretty easy: take out everything to do with Jill and Hoffman, and put them in their own movie. Wipe the whole slate clean with the plot points for this one, we're starting fresh.
The ideal conclusion to Hoffman's saga would have been much better if- like she did in 6- Jill took matters into her own hands with regards to her safety. 6 set up something very interesting with Jill, which is the question of how far a good person will go at the behest of a loved one. Jill in 6 was clever, secretive, still loyal to the John she knew and loved despite her mixed feelings about his acts. And I'd have loved to see that pushed to its logical extreme in the follow up: Jill has been left with her own choice. Hoffman is not only a bad man, he's also tarnishing John's intentions and legacy. Which, then, is the more moral thing to do- kill Hoffman, or protect herself and allow him to continue killing?
Instead, 7 did her dirty by having her immediately flee to the police (who had already been unhelpful at best and actively harassed her and targeted her for her ex husband's crimes at worst) and sit in a box for the whole movie until it was time for her to die.
Not that Hoffman fared much better. At the end of 6, we see Hoffman at his very lowest- having torn his way out of his own bear trap, wounded, bloodied, with nowhere to go and no chance of escape. He was cornered and furious, an animal willing to chew off his own leg to escape a trap. The momentum of which.... immediately got tanked by the fact that he just. Conveniently went into hiding somewhere and started setting up elaborate murders without being caught.
What I want to see from this hypothetical... we'll call it "Saw 6.5" is what the end of 6 promised: A cat and mouse game between him and Jill. She is smart and crafty and willing to take him down to keep him from tarnishing her husband's legacy, and he is berserk and furious and bloodthirsty and has resorted to murdering his way through any force that tries to stop him. Take out the parts where she goes to the police, take out the parts where he sends tapes with his full face and unmasked voice to the cops to go "oooooh until you give me jill im gonna do murderrrs!" and let the tension be about which of them is going to get to the other first.
And then, because 7 did her so dirty, let Jill win. Something, something, the one thing Hoffman never understood that Amanda and Jill did is who John was and that comes back to bite him. Tie a neat little bow on it, send it on its way, and now we can get into the meat of things that actually happened in 7 and how they could have been a genuinely interesting movie.
But the most important part is this: Hoffman should not be this movie's Jigsaw. He, most especially, should not be the one who sets up the gauntlet that makes up the majority of the film's runtime.
3.) The intro was almost interesting
Not gonna lie, the first time I saw Saw 7's chapter, I thought I knew what was going to happen, and smugly sat back to watch the events unfold.... only to have my prediction completely dashed against the glass for something far more stupid.
So, the intro scene involves two men and a woman strapped up to a series of saws in a huge glass case in the middle of a Very public location. The curtain is dropped, a crowd gathers to gasp at the spectacle and attempt to free the three participants from the trap. Billy rolls up on his tricycle, and the usual spiel begins- this woman cheated on you, will you kill each other to save her or let her die blah blah blah
And right off the bat, it seems.... cheap. Fake, even. Between the fact that all three of the "victims" look too clean, too young, too Hollywood to be the kind of ordinary person many past Jigsaw victims were, there's also a kind of trashiness to the motivation. A kind of tabloid, petty and frankly a little misogynist angle that's so unlike any previous attempts at grey morality in past movies. We went from "the US healthcare system is inherently built on suffering and there is no easy way to measure the worth of a life" to "bros before hoes dude let's live and murder this hoe that betrayed us". It's trashy, and I described the scene to my partners as feeling like it comes from a porn parody.
But here's what I thought was going to happen.
Right up until the point that people started dying, what I expected to happen was a last-minute fake-out before any blood is spilled. What I expected was that- right when the crowd is starting to panic about possibly witnessing a gruesome murder- the scene would be revealed to be a stunt. A publicity stunt, likely for a film or a fictionalized version of the real Jigsaw murders. A gross, tasteless, sexualized, sensationalized version of the Jigsaw murders.
And wouldn't that have been incredible?
Saw 6 was so enjoyable precisely because it struck exactly the right balance between a tongue-in-cheek, camp acknowledgement of the series' flaws and an unflinchingly straightforward social commentary. On the heels of that, I think at the bones of Saw 7's plot is a really interesting look at the exploitative, ugly relationship we have with public spectacle and serial killers.
True Crime is a genre with a lot of ethical debate, and it has only gotten more intense since the release of saw 7 in 2010. We saw multiple movies released about Ted Bundy. We've seen movies about the very real murders of the Zodiac Killer, or the Black Dahlia murder. We've seen real, actual victims have their lives fictionalized and sensationalized for the thrill of public consumption. So why not open the next Saw movie by looking that in the eye?
Which brings me to my next point:
4.) Two Survivors, or: how to make the murders in this movie Matter
The "b-plot" of Saw 7, if you can call it that, takes the formula that was established with saw 4-6 (a single protagonist makes his way through a gauntlet of traps involving people from his life, in one way or another, and can either fail or succeed in saving them) and attempts to play it straight, with a few key twists. But there are two very critical flaws to this:
The protagonist is so deeply unlikeable that we want him to die as soon as humanly possible
He is never in any significant danger, and mostly just kills everyone else by being a colossal dumbass
The thing is? I'm not suggesting we change those points. In fact, I think played right they'd have made some of the strongest points in the movie.
So, the protagonist of the film's gauntlet, Bobby Dagen. Supposed Jigsaw survivor on a publicity tour for his book about Surviving Jigsaw. It's pretty fucking transparent from the get-go that he's lying about his ordeal, so relying on that as any degree of twist is bound to fail. But his arc has promise. Remember what I said earlier about the opening scene being a publicity stunt for a fictionalized work about the Jigsaw murders? Yeah, let's go back to that concept. Let's say it's part of a 'jigsaw mania' that's hitting the media in the wake of the now-supposedly-over Jigsaw murders. Let's say there hasn't been a Jigsaw murder in quite some time. A couple copycats early on, but easily identified as such. Hoffman is gone. Amanda is gone. There is no more Jigsaw in the world. And now- now that any real threat is seemingly far behind them- the world wants to take Jigsaw's story and gawk at it like rubberneckers at a car crash.
That makes for a good cultural backdrop for Bobby's book tour. Everyone wants their slice of the Jigsaw pie, and the media has started digging for anything- anything that will give them a little more Jigsaw to pry into. They've mined all they can from the police records, from John's life, from Jill Tuck (who has vanished off the map, hopefully to retire somewhere nice). Now they're turning to the survivors of his traps, and Bobby catches that at just the right time to start building a name off it.
Okay. Now we're getting somewhere.
Next, we take out the part where John Kramer ever laid eyes on Bobby. In fact, we make it so that Bobby only started touring with his book after John Kramer's death. Only once there was no one left who could verify his story.
No one, that is, except Dr. Lawrence Gordon.
Look, I think the reveal of Dr. Gordon as having survived, and his heel turn at the end, was... fun, honestly. Delightful. But it could be so much better with just a few tweaks.
Firstly, he needs to be the one that set up Bobby's gauntlet. Rather than unfinished business left behind by John, instructions to be carried out after his death, Bobby's trial should be Dr. Gordon's idea and execution. Because it's not just that Bobby is besmirching Jigsaw's name or what have you- it's that he's claiming something that Laurence really and truly did experience.
Secondly, in regards to the murders themselves- one of the big flaws in this movie is how silly, senseless and without stakes most of them feel. Sure, Bobby is trying to save his publicists and his agents and his wife, blah blah blah. But unlike 6- where those deaths being cruel and undeserved is something of the point of it all- in 7 we never really feel like it's particularly fair. Bobby strolls through all of his traps with lackluster attempts to save his peers and inevitably gets them all- including his wife, who never did anything but believe her husband- brutally, horribly murdered. At the end we're left with a wet fizzle of an arc where he tries to do the thing he wrote about in his book, except he sucks at it and he gets his wife killed boo hoo hoo.
Here's my argument: This should all play out exactly the same way. Most importantly, Bobby should survive at the end. Because if this is Dr. Gordon's trial- if this test is from one bitter survivor, angry at the mockery of his trauma and grief- then at the end Bobby should be left standing with all his failures. And Lawrence should let him go.
Because sometimes, surviving is worse.
You get the one-two punch for the character and the audience. We've spent the whole run of the movie hating this prick, and we don't even get to watch him die. Because he talked a big game about how surviving changed his life, it gave him will to live, it made him better. And in this hypothetical version of the movie, Lawrence would test that notion.
In this hypothetical version of the movie, Lawrence would present his reality as a survivor: Sometimes, surviving just means you left someone else to die in your place. And now you have to live with it.
What a way to tie it all back, right? If Lawrence survived, it comes with the cost that he knew he never made it back to Adam. It means he only lived because he failed to save someone else. He sacrificed his leg, he dragged his bloodied body out of that bathroom, and Adam remained and Adam died. And now this glory-stealing liar wants to talk about the positive impact survival had on his mind?
Most importantly, it means that all those trials were never about risking his own life. He was always going to survive. The question was whether it'd be worth anything, worth all those other survivors who Bobby trampled on and lied to and dragged into the limelight. All those people who already paid their price.
Wrapping it all up.
I think the worst thing about saw 7 is that all of this was almost there. It's barely a stretch to slightly re-imagine the movie- cutting some scenes, restructuring a few others- so that it plays out exactly like this. And the thing is, it would have had something really fun to say not only about the real world's obsession with true crime and the in-universe Jigsaw killings, it would have been a fun way to address the actual phenomenon of Saw itself.
Saw as a series was pretty groundbreaking at the time, and it's always gotten a lot of heat for being 'pointless torture porn'. And while I think that's an uncharitable reading that ignores the actual appeal of horror or how audiences react to it, I think this alternate version of Saw 7 could have said something about that. More specifically, I think it could have taken a look at what it means when the violence is pointless. When there was no moral reason the people in the traps deserved to die, except that it was cruel and grotesque and made to horrify Bobby. When there was no glory or awakening that came with survival, only bitterness and anger. Saw 7 almost- almost- said 'you want exploitative and gory? We haven't even begun to show you exploitative and gory.'
But unfortunately, it didn't. And I'll be honest, I genuinely enjoyed saw 7 because it was a train wreck like no other. Not fun in the deliberate, self-aware way 6 was, but fun because it missed every single swing it took. But under all the gristle and gore are the bones of a fascinating concept and I, personally, will spend forever imagining the alternate universe where my version of the movie exists. And now I hope you will too :p
also while i'm sawposting i'm putting a pin in the thoughts i have about how saw 7 could have been saved and Better because there's the Bones of a really interesting plot there
