I’ve had this feeling for a while, but the last few weeks have made it stronger: I feel like people are just sick of Trump, even people that are solid Republicans. Even aside from the politics and the threat to democracy that he represents, I’m just tired of hearing about him and all the vitriolic buffoonery that comes out of him. He’s a class clown that’s gone from occasionally funny to just annoying. And I’m sure there’s plenty of Republican voters that resent what an absolute cultish embarrassment he’s made of their party. Even if I had no other reason to vote, I would’ve still voted blue in the desperate hope that I might not have to hear about Trump anymore.
I mean... Yeah.
The other day, we had a whole group of Arizona Republicans (otherwise known as one of the most extreme and cultist state GOP parties in the country) coming out as the leaders of a Republicans for Harris taskforce. Republicans for Harris also immediately hit it big on Twitter. Haley Voters For Biden instantly changed their name to Haley Voters For Harris and told Haley herself to hit the bricks when she laughably threatened them with legal action. There were always a few Never Trump Republicans before, but like. Not many. And many of them have ventured like, one criticism and immediately fallen back into line when Trump posted one mean tweet about them, because they have spines like soufflés.
Now mind you, the entire national/establishment GOP is still completely and cravenly beholden to Trump in ways that defy all logical human understanding, but people who have voted Republican all their lives and did so habitually once or even twice for Trump are increasingly hitting breaking point, and that should be noted. If you want to know how much, the goddamn MORMONS are, allegedly, preparing to quit the GOP this election in larger volumes than they have voted for Democrats in at least 60 years. I don't know how much this will end up panning out, and they have always been at least somewhat skeptical of him in comparison to the completely deranged mainstream evangelical fundies, but. The Mormons. THE MORMONS. Voting for a black female Democrat for president? In my wildest fantasies, this makes me think of Blue Utah 2024 like Blue Indiana 2008 (yes, that happened, along with Blue Florida TWICE).
Trump does have and will always have his ever-dwindling base of diehard cultists, but they have not and will never be numerous enough to win a fair democratic election on their own, which is why the GOP has pulled every dirty trick in the book trying to ensure that they don't have to. But yes: there are many more of us than them, and if we finally pull together and quit arguing about dumb shit, we could get rid of Trump once and for all, and god. GOD. I long for that day so bad and I can finally think it might be coming. So let us NOT fucking screw this up, kay? Kay.

To be a bit clearer about my issue with the tweet that I talked about in this post as I was posting in the car on the way home (I was not driving but had to do it fast because I get super motion sick) and have had some time to expand a bit:
If we’re talking about the general concept “Stolas set the parameters of the initial sexual transaction thus rooting their relationship in sex from the start and because Blitz is too self loathing and willfully blind to see the desired parameters have changed it is Stolas who made their relationship all about sex in large part because Blitz was never going to be in a healthy enough space to be the one to change it” then yes I agree with the sentiment.
Stolas could have simply said “I’ll let you use the grimoire in exchange for a date” instead of jumping straight to sexual relationship and they could have gotten to know each other first, maybe one date for each Full Moon*. So yes, he did make it this way, he set the terms. At the start of the show.
(*Side note: This would be a super cute fanfic premise tbh and if the show did something like that, where they need to exchange something and say “Hey, how about we make a deal to go on a date on the Full Moon” it would be a really fucking adorable way to reconcile them *starry eyes*. Just think about how much that would slap. The narrative circle of that would be *chef’s kiss*. )
My problem with the framing of “Stolas started it that way in Murder Family, was super over the top horny for a few episodes, now he must suffer the consequences despite the fact that he has been trying to change their dynamic since Blitz expressed how he felt in Ozzie’s” is that, the events of The Circus completely recontextualize the deal we see made and Stolas’s behavior.
We, the audience, didn’t know in S1 that Blitz initiated the whole thing and that Stolas was just mirroring that energy, so I am extremely understanding of this perception pre-S2. Even up until Western Energy, but by Oops we have enough evidence to show Stolas has been trying, Blitz is just refusing. So Stolas didn’t “make it this way” for where the characters are NOW. Not in a “It is Blitz’s fault” taking sides in the divorce way, but in a “This is about character growth or the deliberate lack of it within the story” way.
My big issue with the tweet now, and didn’t learn until I read the tags of a lovely person is that is apparently from an individual who actually works on the show. And that is….kinda concerning to me. A bit.
The idea that Stolas’s efforts count for nothing because he set the initial deal and behaved badly at the start, that we the audience should still see the current dynamic as “Stolas making everything sexual” is a problem 8 episodes into the 2nd season. We have many examples of him not doing that any longer, he has changed, we the audience have been shown that change. Why is it still being framed this way by the actual creative team?
I don’t know how animation production works, so I’m not sure if the people who work as animators are given the whole picture or not. I don’t even know they are fans necessarily, or if they get their individual parts to work on and that’s it. I have zero background info on how these meetings are conducted. I am not coming from a position of authority in this regard.
Setting aside the dismissal of Stolas’s character growth this season. framing it this way undermines the journey Blitz is on too. At this point in the story he is refusing to acknowledge Stolas’s earnest attempts, his willful ignorance is not a funny gag but a reflection of his character and state of mind. It is implied his own trauma and self loathing make him unable to believe what has being explicitly told to him. This confrontation is the tipping point for further development in one direction or another. His choice now is to continue to ignore it and lose Stolas entirely or to try and work through it in some way. By implying Stolas is the one who created thier current situation way back in S1 implies Blitz’s ignorance of Stolas’s feelings is not because of character’s motivations and his own choices to ignore it but simply because it was that way at the start and it is immutable. Stolas said “sex for book please” and “jelly sandwiches” and Blitz was just “I’m just doing what he said he wanted, now he’s coming out of nowhere with this feelings stuff” when a huge part of showing the audience that it is Blitz’s self loathing driving the conflicts in his life is that he refuses to believe the truth of the situation which is it wasn’t Stolas making it all about sex at all. That Stolas has been trying and Blitz keeps shutting it down because of his issues.
That just seems like a crucial part of what we’re doing here? Yes Stolas creates the situation in S1 but he went out of his way to do the opposite in S2.
Obviously this individual’s qualifications for interpretation, being an actual employee, trump my “I’ve watched it a bunch and obsess over it constantly” credentials by a long shot. But my concern is to have a meeting of people responsible for creating the show reflect this sentiment after what we’ve seen in S2 so far is just a little baffling to me?
Either those attempts by Stolas portrayed on screen and the change in his behavior towards Blitz after he realizes his feelings are meaningless in the face of first impressions being everything to both Blitz and the audience. If that is the case I’m not sure why they would be included if the end result interpretation is still “Stolas horny. Made it all about sex. The end.”
Or, I am misreading something, either the tweet itself or the canon text. This is very possible, tweets being an imperfect communication tool and myself being an imperfect person. But as I stated in the original post, if we’re accounting for what is shown on screen as being how we should interpret the characters, Stolas has been trying for months to shift gears and Blitz is the one who continues to frame it as “just sex”. So I just find the tweet completely out of touch with the narrative we’re consuming.

AquaKane Masterlist: My AquaKane Posts
It's been a while since I've needed to make one of these 😂
How it started:
Playing myself and not dropping OnK because of Akane
The beginning of the Akane brainrot (back when I didn't ship AquaKane) + 1
How it's going:
In defense of Akane:
Some of the things people say about Akane make me wonder if there’s an alternative version of the manga out there
Akane's Star Eyes (+1)
Akane wasn't a bad influence on Aqua (the manga literally tells us the opposite)
Akane wasn't trying to manipulate Aqua by acting like Ai
Akane wasn't being manipulative when she tells Aqua that he needs to be careful if he wants to date Kana
Was Akane wrong for telling Aqua to make his own choice?
Thoughts on people calling Akane obsessed instead of in love
Is Akane a plot-device?
AquaKane:
In Defense of AquaKane:
Let's talk about Aqua "using" Akane
Akane wasn't just "a tool" to Aqua (and it's an insult to both characters to claim otherwise)
It’s so funny how Aqua talks big about manipulating Akane, yet she ends up being the person he is most honest with in the entire manga
I’ve seen people criticize Akane’s reply to Aqua in Chapter 52, but I think Akane actually said exactly what Aqua needed to hear (+ clarification/follow-up)
I keep seeing people saying “aqua only wanted to date akane because he couldn’t date kana”, but i’m not convinced things are that white-and-black
Aqua, Akane and their relationship during his “freedom” period
Aqua in a nutshell
Could Akane be wrong about Aqua having romantic feelings for Kana? (Yes, she could be)
What I like about AquaKane +1
AquaKane Chapters Meta:
Chapter 42
Chapters 71 & 72
Chapter 78 + Akane's Tears
Aqua & Akane’s phone call in Chapter 97 + French Translation
Aqua, Akane & Chapter 98
Can we please talk about how silly Aqua is? (Chapter 116) +1
Chapter 131
Chapter 148
Chapter 149
Chapter 150
Chapter 152
Chapter 153: The many parallels between Kamiki -> Ai and Aqua -> Akane
Chapter 154: The many parallels between Ai -> Kamiki and Akane -> Aqua
Theories:
What did Aqua mean when he said that Kana helped him figure out his feelings for Akane?
Aqua wants Akane to know he's Goro + Akane has most of the pieces to figure it out
Theory on why Akane's White Star is on when she tells Aqua that she'll always be his ally
Ichigo/Miyako & AquaKane foreshadowing
Replies to the Aqua's Black Star Eyes AquaKane Theory: 1 | 2
Aka treats Akane like an extension of Aqua himself
Tokyo Blade and the narrative
Do you think Aqua and Akane will get back together or stay close friends?
AquaKane Parallels:
you're better off without me
too many to count
do you like this Akane? (aka the moment AquaKane got me)
their development
soon or later, you may end up being a real couple
chapter 131 & chapter 52
this relationship isn't real + french translation
Misc:
Has Akane ever made aqua smile?
Toxic traits in their relationship? Sure, they’re both self-sacrificial people to a fault (+ 1 ask)
AquaKane Timeline
AquaKane and Unconditional Love
"Akane" vs "Kurokawa Akane" (how the way Aqua addresses her changes through the manga)
AquaKane Highlights Compilation (per arc)
Thoughts on the "Love Triangle"
I'm adding this section despite myself, but since Aka has forced my hand into talking about this more than I'd have liked to, here it goes 😂
Opinion on Aqua and Kana
Thoughts on the Akasaka 2021 tweet about Akane and Kana
I do think that Aqua’s feelings for Kana actually being platonic is the most interesting route
Aqua's "obsession" with Kana
Kana's parallels with Sarina: Kana is everything Aqua idolized Ai to be (aka, honest like Sarina) +1 + Even more parallels and a theory about their purpose
Kana may be meant to be "Everyone's Heroine" just like Fujiwara in Kaguya
Chapters 150 and 151
Revisiting Akane's monologue about relationships & dependency
Extras:
Replies to OnK-related Messages/Asks
Thoughts on the Starry Eyes
Thoughts on OnK's writing
#oshi no ko#aquakane#aquaka#been meaning to this for a while now but I didn't have the time#I can't believe I already have like 12 full pages of onk posts#it's insane lmao#I tried to figure out a format that makes things easier to read but I'm not sure this is it#I'll likely end up editing this later

Did you really go on Poppy’s stream to harass her? Christ, it looks like your friends from Kiwi Farms are rubbing off on you. Did you really think that move would convince people you aren’t a vindictive and malicious ex?
So let me get this straight: you think that I went on their directly controlled gg site to "harass" them, where they would easily and quickly be able to ban me, and for the first and only message guaranteed to go through, I picked "oh hey am I somehow unblocked? lol" as the best way to hurt them in that moment?
Please, I am begging you to think about how absurd of an accusation that is. While I'm sure that they've made a convincing case in isolation for why I'm insane, I would hope that I haven't come across as completely fucking stupid.
Here, you can look at the whole clip yourself. See what I said. Does that seem like someone who's locked and loaded for some prime harassin' time?
lol
No, what happened was that I went to their GG site for the stream because I like being able to scroll through chat if I miss something. I noticed my old account was still accessible, so, being the silly little dipshit ball of chaos that I am most of the time, I typed what I typed and hit "send," fully expecting it to reject the message.
It did not, and I immediately regretted my actions to the level of shouting, "Oh no, oh NO! OH SHIT."
It was very funny, but not nearly as funny as watching Poppy try to navigate the moment live. "You don't get to be in my chat" was particularly good; I literally don't care. I have no use for their chat. What am I going to do, argue live with their fans who have absolutely no context or reason to listen to me? No.
There are a lot of people getting involved here who have no window into who I am or what my personality is beyond the text on this blog, so a lot of you don't know what a derpy little ball of chaos I can be. This was a chaos ball derp moment.
And honestly, aside from my posts on my own accounts, I’m confused as to what you’re calling “harassment.” Them calling this a harassment/hate campaign doesn’t make it one; it means they’re trying to stop anyone from looking at what I have to say.
I’ve actively, publicly pushed back against people using the g-word to describe her. I pushed back against the pedojacketing. I’ve corrected misinformation on other posts. I unpinned the “SFW Spaces” tweet as soon as I saw that they’d fixed their pre-roll.
As wild as it may sound from where you’re sitting, I’m actually a very reasonable person. I mean, do y'all still think this is fueled by breakup spite? Seriously?
Please hear me when I say this: my life as it stands now is better than it was when I was dating Poppy in literally every respect. Better environments, more empathetic and emotionally intelligent community leaders, better support, more intelligent conversations, no constant battles to defend something you like because Poppy wants to be act snobby and condescending about it, etc.
My darling partner and fellow "evil ex" @helavitrum and I strongly agree that we've both scored massive upgrades, and I can't tell you how wonderful it's been to reunite with other people looking for refuge after they see the rotten core of The Foundation for what it is. They’re people as good as PZ pretend to be and they’re looking for like-minded individuals, just like we are.
See, I recognize that the reason they're telling you that I'm just some crazy, obsessive, “psychotic” ex isn’t because they deliberately want to hide the truth; they see what I say as manipulation and lies because they literally do not recognize the harm they've done. What I'm doing doesn't make sense to them in any other way, so that's the translation they share with everyone else.
They have no idea what motivates me.
I mean, yes, I still get upset about the things they said and did, but not because it's still eating away at me or something; it's because they were incredibly shitty things that go against everything that PZ supposedly stand for, and they're continuing to perpetuate this harm against others who come to them for safety.
I get upset because I know so much more about the larger picture and how the behaviors you see in my account are only scratching the surface.
It’s okay, though. Genuinely, I mean this: I understand how you feel about me and I don’t begrudge you your feelings. I don’t think you’re a bad person for thinking these things. If I were in your shoes with just the information that you have available to you, I’d look at me like I was crazy, too.
But the thing is that you think you're protecting a "Lindsay Ellis.” You're not. You're protecting people more akin to iilluminaughtii. Or Lily Orchard.
If you genuinely care about the truth, you should read what I have to offer as far as evidence because, at the very least, I am providing evidence. Practically everything they've said about me (and others) has been their word with nothing else to back it up, uncontested by anyone else involved because their goal is not resolution or honesty; it's control.
And I don't just mean that you should read what I've already provided. I understand if that's not enough for you to understand what I'm doing.
I mean what's coming.
I can only present it, though. It's up to you to decide whether you want to form your own opinion or have it fed to you exclusively by the alleged abusers (and their inner circle).
Until then, I wish I could share more, but I can't because I don't want it spinning off into wild, out-of-control conjecture.
Unlike PZ, I respect the weight of what I've been entrusted with too much to mishandle it for the sake of saving face.
#zenaandpoppy#poppy and zena#also wtf is this kf noise#are they actually saying I'm a friend of KF now lmaooooo#I knew they'd do anything to prevent people from hearing me out but that's a new low

20 Questions for Writers
Tagged by @oakashandwillow
1. How many works do you have on AO3? 42...the perfect number
2. What's your total AO3 word count? just shy of 500k which is an insane number
3. What fandoms do you write for? >_> look. is the top fandom on my ao3 page supernatural: yes. am I still actively posting spn fic: technically also yes. but the incoherent scum villain tweets that don't make it onto ao3 are where my heart truly lies rn
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
#1 and #2 are the double header of Cumplane (Pairing), an in-universe meta for @cleromancy's threadfic, and Cumplane Forums AU, an archive of @flightlesscrowkids's communal threadfic that I shamelessly enabled. #5 on the list is also a scum villain chatfic, It's Fine Cause I'm Wearing Cat Ears, where shen yuan is still insane on the modern internet but this time binghe and liu qingge are there. thank you cucumber stans for your support and good taste.
#3 is my untamed big bang from these nettles, alms which I cowrote with @zorrosuchil (chengxian, but also wangxian and a lil tiny bit zhanchengxian, much to jiang cheng's disgruntlement).
#4 is my pacific rim reverse bang Our Blood in the Machinery in which raleigh becket is possessed, but joke's on you, he's into that shit.
5. Do you respond to comments? I try but unfortunately I often give myself the fake homework of needing to reply Meaningfully which means it simply does not happen
6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? hmm probably the most it-didn't-have-to-be-this-way classic tragedy fic is The Dismemberment Song (the untamed, nieyao); the deadest dove is Jettison (pacific rim, hansens badtouch)
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? I was going to say Only Human but then I remembered the last chapter ends with one of the main characters announcing her imminent demise lmao so perhaps my cql fix-it of Waking / Rising
8. Do you get hate on fics? thankfully not, I don't think they get enough attention to have haters lmao
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? only for siblings
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written? fandom fusions are my faaaaavorite to spitball. way back in the day I had grand plans for Merlispn which (as the name should make clear) was very silly
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? not to my knowledge but cambionverse did once get cited in an academic paper
12. Have you ever had a fic translated? funnily enough one of my smallest and least-viewed spn fics, Driftwood, was translated into chinese!
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? nearly all of them in fact! shout out to @thegeminisage and our series Cambionverse which is old enough to be in middle school now
14. What’s your all time favorite ship? I am a multishipper til death do us part ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? fuckin. Envesseled lmfao. ON GOD WE WILL POST THE LAST FIVE CHAPTERS I JUST DON'T KNOW WHEN
16. What are your writing strengths? *eye* think my own jokes are very funny hahaha and I love to write banter & arguments
17. What are your writing weaknesses? I can brainstorm plots all day long but executing upon them is So Hard
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language in fic? as a monolingual it is something I would do very sparingly if at all, and only if there wasn't another way to convey the same tone/emotion
19. First fandom you wrote for? the first thing I ever posted to ao3 was The Quest for Camelot which is found poetry from the merlin fic finders comm. before livejournal I did post a few things to ff.net but they are going with me to the grave
20. Favorite fic you’ve written? listen. I understand why it deals psychic damage for my followers to see supernatural content in the year of our lord 20 whatever. but read Cambion those are my kids

I think it’s real and she’s his karma. Doing believe it’ll last. 🤷🏻♀️ not really. I think he rushed into this without fully considering various things and looking big picture.
Maybe this is a life lesson for him, maybe he’s just dumb.
I’m not trying to be rude, but how are you going to have a political site, spend years tweeting against social injustices only to marry a fucking bigot. So either he’s a fraud or he’s a fraud who did what he had to do to try to get his ASP website backed?
His wife has more movies with sex scenes on porn sites than actual artists in R rated films. He married bottom of the barrel and it’s a reflection of him.
I hear he has a sex scene in one of his upcoming projects, maybe he can ask his wife for tips. She’s had sex scenes with a sugar daddy, demons, and one of her sitting on the can while playing with herself. She even let his fandom know she practices her sex poses in the shower by posting her own orchestrated nudes to deflect from people finding out about her racist, fatphobic, “I want hitler to fuck me”, stupid ass friends. 🤮 like I can’t believe Chris really put A ring on her and associates with the worst type of individuals.
you make some valid points, nonnie. is she his karma, i don't know. if their relationship is real, well, then we know he was able to put aside the beliefs he claimed and showed himself to have. the comments by her friends are absolutely disgusting. she has tried to distance herself from one friend who was thrown under the bus, and to my knowledge, has not interacted with them publicly since, but her soulmates have and we can be lead to believe through those engagements she still has affiliations with the bus thrown friend.
i for one, would love to know what bill of goods she sold him and his family. how did she, if at all, explain that to his mom and sisters? what excuse did she give? 'i was young and silly and didn't understand. but i still hang out with these people and yes my friend said i wish that i would get fucked like hitler fuck the jews, but it was a joke! hahah isn't that funny?'. he has family members that seem much more savvy than that, and i would like to buy them a cup of coffe, a drink or an ice cream!

thank you for your post! i saw the tweet and felt a bit bad because yes i did start the show because of the kiss, i wouldn’t have otherwise thinking that i was just gonna get too hopeful and crushed again (*cough* spn *cough*)
but now i’m watching, and i love every single character and their stories, and knowing that it’s headed somewhere good makes it a lovely experience
sorry for my random ramble haha hope you have a good day ❤️
Okay, so this made me a little verklempt. And I'm sorry if anyone is making you feel unwelcomed just because the kiss got you to watch.
Back in '07 I had never heard of Doctor Who. I saw a picture of Jack Harkness and Ianto Jones kissing in S1Ep13 of Torchwood. So I immediately started looking into it. Because queer and sci-fi, oh yes please. After finding out it was a spin-off I started with the first episode of Christopher Eccleston and was hooked. In the years since I went to two Gallifrey conventions in LA, I've done a Master cosplay, I've done photo ops with 3 Doctors and numerous companions, I've written fic and collected merch. All started because I saw a photo of this moment.
And funny enough actually my very first convention was a Supernatural one in San Francisco '11.
So again in my own rambling way welcome to the fandom. Please enjoy our ridiculous show. And I'm sorry if anyone ever makes you feel bad for getting into fandom late.

Thanks for the tag @loki-is-my-kink-awakening the pressure is on 🤪
Rules: Pick five fragments from your unfinished WIPs and then tag five people to keep it going. Let’s have fun with it and help each other shape those fragments into published fics!
These are all Steddie because I’m a menace to society and I’ve never written for another fandom
Modern College Coffee Shop AU
(set at Christmas cause apparently I’m cramming as many tropes as possible into this one)
“It’s fine Rob, I’m sure he doesn’t even remember the conversation we had”
“Well I sure do, you only told me about it like a hundred times… “Oh Robin, did you hear him? Did you hear him call me ‘Big Boy’, oh my god Robin do you think he was hitting on me?” Honestly dingus you were voted biggest flirt in high school you think you’d be able to take it as much as you dish it out”
“Shut up, I’m not that bad!”
“Yes you are—I swear—you realize that you can like boys too and it’s like I’m back in seventh grade listening to a little school girl talk about her crush.”
1999 Holiday Meet Cute AU
(Based on a tweet about a stranger helping with a Christmas Tree)
“Woah there! Need a hand?”
Eddie pushes a branch out of his face and turns to find an impossibly handsome and shirtless guy holding up his arm as if to grab the tree and assist Eddie’s pathetic attempt at moving it.
“Shit sorry man, did I get you?” Eddie asks breathlessly, trying in vain not to look at the thatch of alarmingly sexy hair on the guy’s chest.
Chest hair laughs, pushing his hair out of his face, “no, you’re good, I’ve got quick reflexes. So where are we taking this thing?”
This guy clearly isn’t from a big city if he’s so willing to stop whatever the fuck he’s doing wandering around shirtless in December to help a damsel in distress.
And they say chivalry is dead.
Strawberries & Cigarettes - Ch 12
(Long overdue chapter to my WIP, the first fic I started writing that I kinda lost steam on but I’m determined to finish)
Wayne wanders into the kitchen, grumbling about needing coffee, until he sees Claudia and runs his hands over his hair to flatten it.
“Oh, uh, hello, I didn’t realize we had company. I’m Eddie’s Uncle Wayne,” he says, holding his hand out for Claudia to shake.
“This is Claudia, Dustin’s mom, you remember Dustin,” Steve says, ruffling Dustin’s hair and grinning when his young friend squawks in protest.
“Hello there, would you like some lemon loaf to go with your coffee? I baked it fresh this morning,” Claudia says with a bright smile directed at Wayne.
Wayne honest to god blushes and Steve shares a look with Eddie as if to say “well isn’t that the cutest fucking thing ever?” that leads them to corralling Dustin into the living room to give the grown ups some space to chat.
Who doesn’t love a little side Claudia x Wayne? 😉
Steve tries something new…
(Based on the first time I did MDMA, still trying to figure out where I’m going to fit this funny little moment in or if I’m going to make it it’s own thing entirely)
Eddie gets up, helping Steve to his feet and leading him to the kitchen, he props Steve against the counter and grabs a glass, filling it with water from the tap as Steve pets his own t-shirt and mumbles about how soft it is.
“Here sweetheart, drink this” Eddie says, handing Steve the glass of water.
Steve takes a sip and tsks “ahhh why’d they make water so good? Sweetheart, why is water so good? Love when you call me sweetheart, cause you’re the sweetest sweetheart.”
Eddie holds back a laugh, “yeah okay Stevie, drink up”
Okay that’s all I’ve got in my WIPs! Wish me luck the Christmas ones are due next week 😅
I don’t feel like I’m on here enough to tag anyone specifically so if you see this and want to participate go nuts! It’s so fun to see what other fandoms people write for as well, sorry that I’m lame and only have one… maybe that’ll change one day.
You can find all my posted stuff here:

Story time
2020, although not the worst year of my life, definitely ranks at least top 5. But it didn't suck harder for me than it did in July, when at my most vulnerable, someone who ran the community that I at the time called my family, had everyone gang up on me and made me feel as betrayed as possible. I won't go into the details, but long story short, I eventually got better. Slightly.
But 3 things became my beacon of hope in those times. 1 was my own server which I had established soon afterwards, which turned out to be a huge success, 1 was my now girlfriend who stuck with me and gave me support, but 1 was a slightly less likely source.
It was an Animal Crossing parody account on Twitter which back then, as a site, wasn't 180% pure anger and hatred. There was still salvageable material on the website at that point in its life.
That's not to say there weren't angry people tho, and boy did they fuck that account over.
I'm not gonna say the account's name to protect my own ass, but what happened one day not long after I had found it, was the account had said something slightly stupid, either knowingly or unknowingly, that could be seen as slightly racially insensitive. All of a sudden, they got absolutely lynched by people for that tweet, wave after wave after wave of hatred, threats and toxicity which broke them to the point where they deleted that account.
Now, I am NOT saying what the parody account did was right. I do think they should maybe have thought a bit more about what they said, especially in an age like this. But it's not like they said any slurs, or direct attacks, or anything any government would consider hate speech. And yet they got absolutely flooded with hate with whatever they said (which btw, I don't even remember what it was, go figure)
I've been victim of this too. On one of my old accounts on this website I talked briefly about why I thought Sasha (which funnily enough is also an Animal Crossing character) was not transmasculine. I tried to remain as inclusive as I possibly could about trans people, and I even went out of my way to say "I could be wrong, if you disagree, that's perfectly fine, and you could be right". In the end, it's all a game and it was just a ramble in good fun in the spirit of the game. Didn't work. That post got so much hate. Not nearly as much as the parody Twitter account got, but I was called "cis scum" left and right. (I find it painfully fortuitous that people in defence of trans people called a trans person who wasn't 100% perfect in their wording "cis scum" >.>) but that's the kind of place we live in atm. Yes, the haters out there are just trying to do the right thing, but some are trying too hard. And ultimately doing the opposite of what they sought out to do in their extremity.
I will miss that parody account. Not for their one dumb tweet they made, but for their other thousands of delightfully funny tweets. And it's not like the only one. I just found another account that's similar in style only on this site, and for Minecraft instead of Animal crossing. So I’m glad I was able to find some humour in this chaotic world again. Because the show must go on.

a responsibly equivocal stance
Max Norman's review of Diane Arbus's work in The Drift brings together some questions I've wrestled with lately, as I always wrestle with them: the questions of having a position on an artist and having complex assessments of art. Some of this is triggered by the experience of watching some friends of mine process the Oscars and the sweep made by Everything Everywhere All at Once—a therapeutic millennial movie that seems to want to palliate viewers' childhood wounds by using larger-than-life spectacle as a vehicle for overly simplified sentiment, and is being disproportionately rewarded considering its ultimate lameness (the natural product of excessive spectacle for those who don't find that charming) and conservatism. (The case for the conservatism is laid out quite well by Kieran McLean, here.) Versus the kind of artwork that tries to be several things at once, say TAR.
Which everyone online seems to be kind of stupid about? Much of this is likely shaped by Twitter's particular economy of terse opinions, quote tweeting, and dunking. Versus, say, an ecosystem of alt-weeklies or blogs issuing comparatively considered pieces (written by critics of whatever stripe, and not Twitter-posting Substackers, each hanging out their own little shingle, subjected to the demands and incentives and scale of those platforms), which people then reflected on via comments in comment sections—which is not to glamorize blogs or comment sections, just to say that what we've got now might be worse than what we had then. With TAR, it feels like a film that was designed to be ambiguous enough to evoke multiplicity in its interpretations just got such flat reads from people whose tastes I normally trust. It was a portrayal of an abuser in cancel culture being justly punished for her arrogance. Or it was a portrayal of an abuser being unjustly punished, because according to Todd Field, Lydia Tar's genius, or her age and socialization to older mores, or the perceived stupidity of her antagonists in the culture—for all that I don’t think the student she argues with, in a moment that goes viral and begins her fall, Max, is actually meant to be seen as stupid—ought to have excused her bad behavior.
To my mind, the film seemed to want to do both these things—or, as the memes would have it, a secret third thing, some hybrid of the two.
It seemed Field wanted to show a person whose character has been dessicated by the pursuit of fame experiencing the destruction of all her ties to the world that satisfied her desire — perhaps even to get back in touch with some new form of creation both degraded and genuine. Yes, Tar, at the end of the film, is in an objectively worse position than when she began. And she's not exactly saved. She may not be capable of any reckoning with herself more concrete than the atavistic, overwhelming stab of feeling that makes her vomit when she's confronted by a reminder of the women she worked to manipulate, like Krista and Olga, in the form of the girls in the spa she visits, lined up like a banquet for her delectation. She's also conducting in a meaningful way, absorbed in the act of it, in a way she has not been up to that point. And she is so because now, she has no other choice...
All this is to say: maybe Field wanted to create an object that could meaningfully be taken several ways. Maybe he meant us to go back and forth on whether Tar is right or Max is right, or to what degree; maybe he meant us to like Tar in some ways, or to find her charismatic or funny in fucked-up ways, and to disapprove of or hate her in other ways, to find her blinkered and odious and sad in her attempts to aggrandize herself. All this is so very basic to say, and I don't mean to imply I'm being radical here, but I have had this thought: maybe we're fucking up by being so insistent with how we feel about this movie and what we think it's saying About The Culture We're In. Artists shouldn’t be expected to have a single stance on something, a single intention that each work exists just to express. An artist can, should, be working through something...
Which brings me back to the Arbus piece. I appreciate Norman's calling out the position taken by curator John Szarkowski and critic Sebastian Smee that Arbus meant to humanize her subjects. I don't think Arbus's intent was to rehabilitate, to "show," as Szarkowski has it "that all of us—the most ordinary and the most exotic of us—are on closer scrutiny remarkable"; that would be banal, and perhaps as instrumentalizing of the subjects as work made to emphasize their strangeness. "Does Arbus’s photograph ["A naked man being a woman, N.Y.C., 1968"] send him up, or support him?” Norman asks, “Or is the real joke on the viewer who insists on one interpretation or another?" I don't think it's a joke played on the viewer who insists on one interpretation or the other; I do think that viewer ought to be capable of acknowledging multiple possibilities... Maybe—to state another basic point—artists, whether Diane Arbus or Todd Field, don't have answers, but questions, and they chose to do something felt as well as thought to represent them... And I think artists should be allowed to look bad, to have complicated feelings, to encounter a desire to gawk or objectify and portray that desire with a degree of honesty and interrogation so that those of us who, obeying certain limits that collective life justly(!) places, won't cop to it can confront it in some form...
I do want to be clear that interrogating the ethics of Arbus's relationship to her subjects, so many of whom were marginalized as she was not, feels useful and necessary. I also don't think we can do that with much precision if the only question we ask is Did Arbus have a right to do what she did? And while none of this is new, it does feel like Norman's piece opens a way to that more precise interrogation of the ethics of Arbus's work by pushing us past the simple binary of "the work is good" or "the work is bad"—a binary that feels particularly ubiquitous now, and undignified in the overheated discourse about art that it often fuels. Ultimately, if the Smee/Szarkowski take on Arbus is, as Norman writes, one in which "Arbus's biography, which testifies to her own 'inner mysteries,' is used to help straighten out the problem of a privileged white woman on the prowl for weirdos—a woman who once compared taking pictures to being a butterfly collector," I don't want to discount the "butterfly collector" bit. But what if what’s so often seen as a problem could once again become fact... As Norman puts it, we so often take positionality as key to understanding works of art. And how much has that uncovered for us that a responsibly equivocal stance toward an artwork—a stance that acknowledges possibilities good and bad and makes no final judgments, or doesn't rush to translate a first impression, a take, into a summary judgment—could not more effectively do?
Time, I guess, to page Sontag for those erotics of art; we might need them again...
Ironically, Sontag appears in Norman's piece as another critic determined to reduce Arbus, specifically by critique of her privilege and the perceived amorality of her voyeurism rather than by praise for some arguable desire she had to humanize her subjects. Maybe by the time Against Photography came out, Sontag too had forgotten her own edict. Or more likely, the demands of nascent image culture—and the nature of photography, versus those technologies of art that are less automatic on the part of the artist, and less readily assimilated into a media economy that goes on to inform a country's politics—had overwhelmed it.
To be clear, Sontag's take on Arbus in "America, Seen Through Photographs, Darkly" is clearly the product of intense engagement with the work and Arbus's own writings on it. But I resent the harshness of the judgments—their fixity. When Sontag writes the line
What happens to people's feelings on first exposure to today's neighborhood pornographic film or to tonight's televised atrocity is not so different form what happens when they first look at Arbus's photographs.
I think: is Arbus's work about inuring us to what is terrible? Are the subjects "necessarily ahistorical," is her view "always from the outside"? Perhaps Arbus's work is "reactive—reactive against gentility, against what is approved" to some degree; is that all it is? Sontag takes Arbus to task for not being ethical with her photographs, as a journalist might be ethical, but can't the creation of a dramatic confrontation with one's own instinct to be a voyeur be a meaningful exercise; meaningful in an ethical sense, for a viewer—particularly viewers in the same wealthy and sheltered position as Arbus—if still something for which the artist should be held to account? As Norman writes, "Looking through Arbus’s lens only makes the encounter more demanding." I suppose the point is this: There's rigor and even beauty in an unequivocal stance, but also the risk of a shrillness, an antagonism, a hostility not unlike the hostility people brought to TAR—and I'm increasingly tired of assuming a hostile, suspicious, exclusively hermaneutic relationship to art...
Right as I was writing this post, I was tipped off to the publication of an essay by Garth Greenwell in The Yale Review in which he talks about an apophatic theory of the relation between art and morality: "a theory that would allow us to explore the moral work of art without limiting or prescribing that work, as certain theologians attempt to develop ways to think about God without defining God in a manner that would violate God’s freedom." Which puts precisely the words to what I'm searching for; the relation to art I would like to return to. Marked by generosity, an understanding of an artwork as necessarily multifaceted, the taking of time in the consideration of it, an assumption of good faith. There's also a line in Ben Lerner's book The Lichtenberg Figures that comes to mind: "a great work takes up the question of its origins / and lets it drop..." Maybe I'd tweak that line now: A great work takes up the question of its ultimate meaning and lets it drop...

“someone who has one of the kindest smiles i’ve ever seen” Yet you say nasty things about his girlfriend. You’re a fucking fat joke. Chris doesn’t deserves your support. If his girlfriend is racist like you claim she is all because of her friends actions in which she cannot control, He is one. He literally has racist friends. You’re so embarrassing. No wonder no one wants you.
Hi anon☺️
So obviously you follow me and decided to be a lil nasty today and usually I would delete but I have time and feel like someone as disrespectful as you should hear this. I haven’t said anything horrendous or rude about Alba at all. I admit I got mixed up in a few not great tweets, which I’m not proud of and I have owned up to that. In the end it’s not my place and Chris is a grown man, he can do what he wishes.
Coming and making fun of my body and calling me fat and a joke, is extremely uncalled for and you’re lucky I’m okay enough to know you’re just projecting.
I do not comment on Alba and Chris, I don’t post about them, and I continued to say if he’s happy i’m happy! He deserves to feel loved and appreciated no matter what, I will always stand by that, so you must be mixed up.
Funny enough he doesn’t deserve the support of someone like you who gets off on harassing and bullying others online, so maybe you should also take a look in the mirror.
She has had a moment where she appropriates a culture in a video, and yes the actions of her friends are not hers, but actions I find so disgusting towards the people it affects. I’m sure Chris also has racist friends and look at you, you said it yourself that makes Chris racist, so you’re proving both of us right.
I don’t think i’m embarrassing, what I think is embarrassing is you coming to bully someone you don’t know on anonymous because you can hide behind a screen and project just how miserable you are. I’m so sorry for anything you’re going through that’s causing you to lash out and hurt others.
Funny you say no one wants me when I’ve got an amazing group of friends, family and people who support me no matter what.
Next time please refrain from harassing others on the internet. I hope you can allow yourself to heal and find happiness someday 💛

ON FASHION.
ON MY OWN FASHION.
There’s a saying that I come across often which says fashion is just drag. Or something along those lines.
Anyway, I went to the fashion accounts series at Museum Africa and it’s a fashion museum documenting South African fashion through the years pre/post-colonialism and it’s so funny, I wouldn’t consider myself the most fashionably expressive person. Yes I’m stylish, my clothes look good, the fits are always giving but it’s nothing avant garde or camp. I’ve learnt how to sew but I’m doing nothing with that skill atm BUT I consume so much about fashion and fashion history.
Something that stood out to me at the museum was the question beauty or trauma. And I think beauty is trauma. If we think of thinness and how western society has imposed that as the standard and what the rise of ozempix has caused then BEAUTY IS TRAUMA. If we think beauty treatments and the price to undergo them, botched BBLs and other beauty enhancements. AGAIN BEAUTY IS TRAUMA. I enjoyed the museum so much, we asked questions, we pondered, we admired.
My fave thing about being a student of life is that there’s never enough information or knowledge. There’s always something to learn. This museum was a reminder that our stories and culture and the most interesting and intricate parts of who we are was stripped by colonialists and is now again being admired by the same people. Not the same but you get the message.
There’s a tweet I saw earlier that said the world would be so boring without all the different cultures. Which brings me to something we were conversing about which is, where does our history of clothing originate from? Because some of the images we see are almost always from the Nguni lens. And when they are from the Nguni lens, where are the images and adaptations of the bangs people and the Sotho tswana pedi people?? But also, does this not mean that we are one people? Who are also different?? Again two things can be true at the same time. We can be the same but different, take human beings for example.
I love fashion. I love experimenting with it, I love learning about it I love seeing it. I think in my past life I was highly involved with fashion in one way or another.
The museum date reminded me so much of the clothes kinder podcast by Khensani. As well as my very many interest.
Good night
