#polls#tumblr polls#For me I think the top ones would be the House. The Money. or the Friend Group. But I ultimately might would go for the house#JUST becuase it would be my Dream House which means it would already meet mostly all of my specifications#and what I might be looking for. which would save a lot of time searching or customizing/rennovating.#Also because I could use that as a way to leave the US lol.. like .. if I get to choose my dream location.. couldnt I just choose some othe#country?? But I wonder how that works. Can you legally 100% have full ownership of a property in a country yet not be a citizen of that#country?? Would you show up and be like 'erm.. i own this house.. so i shall now live in it' and theyd be like 'uh no. you cant live here#despite owning the house. leave.' ??#So I think the initial process of 1. scraping together funds to actually MOVE myself and my most valuable belongings physically#TO another country. and 2. figuring out how to STAY in that country . might end up being difficult.. BUT. if I could just work that#part of things out then.. dream house?? security for once in my life?? stability?? :0#Though the $1mil is enticing it's also like.. I feel .. with the way housing prices are now... that's not much???#it's a lot I guess if you plan on like.. investing half the money and staying in an apartment for 5 years while you grow your wealth#or something. but if you're a 'I Need Stability NOW' ready to settle down person who would be most interested in owning a property rather#than nice clothes or a car or whatever other investments you could make then.. eh..?? It seems like unless you're okay with living in#a small town or kind of far away from the city - even some SMALL houses in majorly populated areas in the US will be like#$600.000 - $900.000 or something. like that would be MOST of my money. Which I know you could just pay partially and make#payments on it but idk.. in the option of just outright owning the house it seems like it'd end up being cheaper.#Plus I would want to own it fully asap because I'd be afraid of losing it somehow otherwise. like it being taken for medical bills or#something. which I thought was supposed to be - not IMPOSSIBLE - slightly more complicated legally if you actually have#paid off the house in full. I guess the issue then would be utilities and property tax and such. But I feel like thats overcome-able??#Like I could just stipulate that my Dream House has a little furnished addition or something and then find someone#with money and be like 'Look you can live in this extremely nice area with amazing ameneties and updated everything and ALL you have#to do is give me money to cover the utilities and property tax.'' or something like that. Like the little furnished addition is nicer#than the actual house. they have their own pool and spa and movie room or something and Ill also cook all their meals for them#or whatever (how luxurious it would be depeneds on how high the property tax actually is/how much I would need to entice them into#why it's a good deal for them to pay it for me lol). idk... something like that.. ANYWAY#I asked a few people I know though and one of them answered they'd rather have a romantic partner. the other one said they'd like#to be able to choose someone to die lol.. So I'm curious what people value the most

Hate to say it but that women’s tag team match was a mess and not in a good way
#I don’t see any plot motivation here besides right at the end with Rhea and Liv’s eternal beef#the Candace and Tiffy thing is maybe something but why does Iyo feel the need to enter war games?#why would Raquel and Liv defend Nia and her team?#some nice moves here and there though#got to love acrobatics#live thoughts#wwe smackdown#wwe

i need to complain and you're the only N liker i trust... whys every N rper have such a boring interpretation of him.... like at LEAST make him obsessed with math 😭😭😭
N is a fan favorite, which means you get way more people than usual attempting to write him, which means he tends to get subjected to more fanon...that's my theory
because he's a fan favorite, i think he's also the type of character that people like to pick up and project themselves onto, even if it means removing a lot of the nuance in his canon character. back when i was still RPing him on tumblr myself (which, granted, was almost a decade ago now...geez) it was also very in vogue to put him through so many layers of AU that he was basically just an OC lmao...tumblr Gladions are also like this in my experience. so many wildly out-of-character boys out there
anyway my advice to N writers is you don't even really need to know math to write N's math stuff true to canon...just have him throw out the word "formula" or "theorem" every now and then. that's what i did LMAO......this math shit is easy
#i've reached the point in my RP career where i'm pretty much retired (i only RP privately with like 5 trusted people lmao)#but if you're in tumblr RP.....my advice to you is YOU GOTTA GET OUTTA THERE...ITS BAD MAN#it sounds elitist but if you're bothered by dealing with misinterpreted characters you're probably better off#moving to DreamWidth and finding a closed game that requires applications#my experiences RPing N and Lusamine on tumblr were like exact opposites of each other#in that people would get irritated with me for making N too mean while my Lusamine was too nice. no nuance allowed 😔#i did occasionally see some very good RPers on here though...when i RPed N i was very jealous#of another N on here because they actually DID know math and integrated it into their writing much better than i ever could

2025 reads / storygraph
The Underwood Tapes
YA supernatural/mystery
struggling with grief after losing her mother in a car crash 6 months ago, a girl goes to the Florida hometown her mother never returned to, trying to occupy herself with a summer job transcribing some old cassette tapes for the town’s historical society
a lot of the documents have to do with a mysterious group of hurricane-chasing teens from the 70s - who also have a connection to the boy recording the tapes in 1992
in a moment of loneliness, she records something onto the blank side of a cassette - and finds that somehow, he can hear her, and they start to talk to each other
as she tries to investigate more about the hurricane society and buried secrets of the town, they become friends across time, and she discovers the answers are closer than she expected
#The Underwood Tapes#aroaessidhe 2025 reads#no romance#I enjoyed this a lot! timeweird friendship YA!#it’s quite slow-moving; and the mystery is kinda a secondary element to the MC’s journey and grief#which is really the main focus of the story. her grief; jake's grief; generational grief in the town.#The friendship is so good but also very sad and bittersweet :( the limited tapes….ow! my heart#There’s some nice other characters and tentative friendships (is it friendship if it’s cousins? basically) on the side too#There’s an obvious tma comparison here but it’s only really the initial archive/cassette concept. it’s not particularly spooky#“what would you do if a boy sent you a picture of a fish” “can I see the fish” < correct answer#"I don't think it's romantic or platonic or anything else. I don't think there's a word to describe the depth of this feeling-#so I don't try to give it one. It is what it is.”#Maybe underwhelming ending...? idk. kinda inevitable though

GOD I LOVE people and humans beings and such. Yeah❤️
#spent 5h reading ppls tarot it was so nice and chill i could take my time since iwas paid by the event…#A lot of ppl came by of every age i had like a young boy of 12 who wss really sweet to a 65 yo auntie who was worried about her health#and i had a lot of really serious and important readings that u could tell ppl really needed to hear….. almost evrry person told me at the#end how spot on it was and how good and relieved they were to hear certain things….#also in tje end me and the other readers went to get a drink and i was just following the flow of the crowd but evidently#they were out With A Plan bc we ended up moving to a seoncdary location with some ppl who i thought were just some bar owners#but ended up being the organizers of the entire event skxkskdkddk who also organize snother really big event in this city#And have contacts in like the cinema and tv world even abroad and know everyone in town here etcetc#and i fully didn’t realize who they were but one of them askd me for a reading and i was like bet (it was 1am and wed been reading out in#the cold since 6:30pm) and apparently i was soo good that everyone at that table was impressed and they called the big boss over#and he wanted a reading too even though hed been sceptic. and he grew slowly impressed by it and was really nice to me the whole time but#esp by the end like i could tell hed grown imoressed by me. and also both the organizer dudes i read for were SO hot like holy shit. daddyy#anyway im tipsy on nice wine other people paid for me but what i was trying to say is. It was so fun to read for all those people and i#hope all tje kids and aunties i read for are ok and leave their bad relationships and get into good ones and take care of their health etc.#and i hope the salt and pepper daddy who organizes this whole event puts me on in the future and/or raws me at some point thankssss#ive been such a good honest and generous boy i think i deserve a treat any treat. 😇

god i met this dude today and he was so fucking hot like. god DAMN. i will be thinking about him
#red rambles#went to some ridiculous holistic expo with my dad (mostly to look at rocks and not be home doing fuckall on spring break)#and like we got to chatting while eating and he was like. are you here for healing stuff and i was like nah not really my thing. and like#you know a (cis straight) guy is a real one when they clearly did not clock you and think you are a cis straight dude and like#very earnestly and QUITE FERVENTLY launch into what is basically an explanation of how all men need feminism to move past#the way that life treats everyone in this world. like to the point of 'men dont talk about their feelings but they should. the patriarchy i#the problem. i came from a very patriarchal upbringing and i decided i wasnt going to be like that and you can too'#and oh my god he was so hot. did i mention he was so hot.#there with his girlfriend supporting her mindfulness journals side hustle !!!!#cant even lie i was chatting with her too. less hot. still very nice though. works for google as her day job apparently. sounds brilliant

Philly's been lovely so far, the tours have been insightful learning about Philly's role in the American Revolution (also some spooky urban legends), the Franklin Institute let me put my science hat on (also planetariummm), and the gayborhood's a nice scene (for being here on weekdays)--but le sigh no unzipping a hot local guy's pants has happened 😔
#ore no inochi#I have however found how unusable Grindr has gotten with its ads jeez#also the (occasional) bots#feel like I need to have a bestie evaluate my profile bc here or in NYC it's been a bit hard to click with someone 😩#I would like dating and I'm hoping talks with former Starbucks guy I like pan out as he puts his last guy behind him#but I'd like the occasional fwb in the meantime 😩#also was nice catching up with a good friend who moved here from NYC now that he's back from his Montreal trip#...though he was so cute in his floral tank top#i feel like we've clicked well--helps we're both in DSA--and we tend to have good eye contact together and I can kinda feel like he feels us#but then I think we'd also talked a few years back about being good as friends which works though I do always like seeing him#(there was also the time he visited some months back where he kissed me goodbye as I dipped into the subway... and we hugged bye twice today#each one seemingly mutually lasting a few seconds...#after a few hours i messaged about really liking us catching up and that the hugs were nice--and he liked it#I kinda feel like I did sense some hesitation about us splitting but I could also be overthinking this#given said friends thing I've kinda left it to him to clue me in if he's feeling things--we'll see how things go when he visits NYC in Aug#since sadly I leave tmrw afternoon to hit work again Friday lol)#but anywhooo yeah would be nice to get in some pants soon 😩

It sucks when you learn something new which might be the answer to a question you've had for a while but you don't even know where to start to see if it really is the answer.
#liv won't shut up#the context: i am a white & from the us. but i have dark hair eyes & skin. dark enough skin that i get asked a lot if i'm latina. usually#latina (which i think matches my appearance the most) but i've gotten native american pakistani (okay that one makes no sense but whatever)#& a few others. thing is i know a lot of my family history. my family has been in the us for quite a few generations but before that my#ancestors were from england & scandinavia mainly though due to history i can assume i have french & german ancestry as well. & um these#countries arent known for dark complexions. so then ppl are always surprised. convo usually goes like this#person: where are you from?#me: the us#person: & your parents? what is your ancestry?#me: my family has been here for generations but before that they were from england & scandinavia mainly.#person: really? because you don't look like it. you look latina. where did your complexion come from?#me: idk how would i know?#well i recently learned about a group in scandinavia called the sami. they're originally from siberia but many moved to scandinavia#centuries ago. & they have darker complexions. so now i'm wondering if at some point i had ancestors that were sami from scandinavia#& if there genes just kept getting passed down until me#but man i do not have the time to figure that out#like i dont *need* to know i'll be fine. but i've always been curious & it would give me an answer to tell ppl that ask#also btw it isnt just white americans asking if i'm poc. lots of poc ask too. i'm working at a mexican restaurant & i get asked all the tim#there if i'm latina bc “i look like everyone else there”#but it would be nice to have an answer besides “idk” when someone asks why i have my complexion#at least i know what line it comes from. my dad & grandpa look like me too#& also got asked a lot if they were latino. even more than me. my grandpa is from southern arizona. we have a white american as heck last#name so everyone thought his dad was american & his mom mexican (nope). then he moved when he married my grandma to my grandmas#home town so then all of them saw this guy from arizona moving in with darker skin & also assumed he was at the least biracial.#then ppl thought my dad was biracial too bc he's the son of the random arizonan with darker skin#so i know wherever i got this gene comes from came via my grandpa

Okay so I watched the trailer for Snow White, just out of curiosity (I don’t intend to watch the movie I’m not giving them money for that), and I can very much concur that the colour grading is terrible, none of the backgrounds look real, and the dwarves are awful CGI abominations.
However. The Evil Queen’s outfit… Kind of brilliant. I give whoever designed that one a pat on the back, and only them specifically.
#I think it’s a good translation of the animated version to a live action medium#and when it moves it has a nice glass sound to it that I think gives it some extra flair and texture#that is very much needed in live action compared to 2d#I mean. it’s kind of in the medium.#so basically#nothing else in this film was worth it#except for *this* outfit. it is the only win.#seriously though snow white’s dress by comparison is *very* flat#this outfit almost kind of highlights how flat it is#it feels like a child’s costume just because it’s very obviously a direct translation of something from 2d into 3d#that was specifically meant for 2d#it really needed some equivalent to the gems to feel more. Y’know. real.#give it some texture. turn the colours down. give it more structure and layering.#there are many options here and you took none of them

found out the ivy my sister got me fits perfectly in the snail pot and. oh my god? oh my god.
#rams garden adventures#ITS SO CUTE.....#its not re-potted yet btw!! just in the pot it was bought in :) it just fits so well#its still getting used to being here! re-potting it so soon risks shock#thankfully its not rootbound!! its roots aren't even poking out the bottom of the pot yet so it'll be perfectly fine to stay for a while :)#the outside pot was nice too i just wanted to see what this looked like since its going in this pot later. its staying here i think#plain white pot or adorable snail pot....hmm. tough choice (sarcasm)#(its in a garden pot but had a decorative outside pot without a drainage hole. its common)#this ivy is so pretty i love it so much... i've been wanting one for a bit :3 i'm so happy#the ferns been doing okay so i think i can care for an ivy too!! they're not known to be too hard‚ they just like being wet like ferns#though some ferns are. difficult to care for. to say the least#''ouugh i don't like the ph of the air i think i shall die'' <- maidenhair simulator (sarcasm)#its with the succulents for now cause i didn't have room on the table when i got it and just haven't moved it. /shrug#re-painting the snails mouth was interesting for sure. i hope it stays cause i didn't seal it lol

we got a new coworker who is cool and i really like but my managers are giving him a little more heat for mistakes than i usually see from them and considering he’s a black man it does Not look good
#like. he dropped some nugs right. and when we drop weed on the ground we have to waste it#and it’s something we have ALL done. and if youre new to weed jobs it WILL happen#so when he did it i walked him through the process. which is how it was always done#and the day after it happens they approach him and act like it was done all wrong and that it wasn’t communicated w next shift who had to-#package it end of day?even though he did?#and went on about consequences and i think he mentioned they said even being forced to buy it??#like what the Hell???i have NEVER heard of that before#i have dropped and SHATTERED a jar before. i know for a fact my manager did too and wasted well over an ounce#i was never told i needed to compensate for it#we just take the L and move on#until now fucking Apparently. i was always on guard with them since they screwed over my ex coworker/friend who is native mexican#which REALLY pissed me fof bc i fucking love them and as a detached native mexican they encouraged my reconnection efforts#and helped me with it too. easily one of the most important new friendships i ever made and they fucked her over#and we know her not being white was part of it. now it’s happening again#i wont have that deep a connection w this new coworker but i think hes great. nice and easy to talk to and work with.#hes kind of exactly what we need but theyre being difficult w him and it’s pissing me tf off#well he at least has me on his side if he needs it. he doesn’t take this job That seriously bc he’s kinda just here for fun#so he’s pretty shrug about it but doesn’t stop us from shittalking w each other about them lol#IM took edibles right after work and had to air my frustrations#txt

aaaaaaa okey I ordered the speaker and the star projector. (and a beauty blender and a neck support and the new volume of yona and the garbage disposal cleaner matt wanted.) it was still only $35 actually out of pocket and I get my allowance in the morning which will completely replace that amount. I will definitely like the speaker and if I don't like the star projector arin will.
#yes this did take me an entire week#I don't like spending money. I like having money and I like having things.#but I must spend money to get things.#but I have had a very draining weekend and I deserve nice things and that's what gift cards are supposed to be for.#(frankly even if nice things do need to be earned which is a notion that deserves to be critically examined)#(depending on how one defines 'nice things')#(I have more than earned all the nice things I could ever want between keeping other people alive and keeping myself alive.)#(we glamorize Big Actions way too fuckin much btw but that's tangential off the 'keeping other people alive' thing)#(Big Actions often have the smallest fuckin impact tbh. they mean nothing without thousands of small actions.)#I very nearly didn't order the projector but it's late and I'm in my room alone and I turned the lamp off early#so that no one can tell I'm still up since my brother is still here#and it's just a tiny bit too dark for being awake purposes#only a tiny bit though#there's good light through the window because of the courtyard#and the projector has an auto-off#idk I think it's worth trying. if I like it they can give me extra discs for it for christmas#and if I don't I can give it to arin#the notion that I can try stuff without 100% Committing Forever is. not one I grew up with.#like. mom started me on piano lessons for my 9th birthday cuz I'd mentioned it at some point#and I faithfully attended every week (barring schedule conflicts or illness) until I moved away for college at 19.#you had to promise you really wanted something for real if you were gonna get it and god help you if you were wrong.#even though neither of us were prone to tantrums or greed even without those tight boundaries.#(and even though she did not hold herself to that standard at all from what I can see.)

hi!! brought here from the hot takes / headcanon blogs (because of reblogs) and thought i’d submit something
i’ve been so brainrotted over phighting recently that if you mentioned any weapon (like a sword or a rocket) i would immediately just start smiling because of how hard i’m hyperfixating right now it ain’t even funny and i’ve never been so fixated on something my entire life man- i also made a cardboard shurifin for a school project and it actually looks kinda good (the horns fell off tho, i gotta get around to making them again and gluing em on). anyways back to what i was saying, i have info dumped to nearly all of my friends (irl and online) about phighting and if they keep on updating the goddamn game i think i’m gonna implode (/pos) because we got FED in the last few weeks it’s crazy (one of my friends is on vacation right now and there are paragraphs worth of conspiracy theories on the heretic katana skin n all that in her discord dms hehe)
tl;dr: truth be damned i have phighting autism (/silly)
- 🔶 anon!! hello!! (i might be back, probably, we’ll see)
yr about to implode then (phestival in august) >:)
#confession#mod sword#🔶 anon#welcome from the hot takes blog :D! very happy to see people from there <3#you would love thebogtimez twitter account if you dont already know about them (archives everything talked about on streams)#i was also like this at some point but now ive moved on (if you can call going right back to sonic “moving on”. get me out of here)#its nice to see people who still enjoy the game this much though!! reminds me that theres still a community that ISNT full of haters#i hope you and your friends have fun and engaging theory conversations over phighting :)

#gdam amuricans#get off my blog /j#florida is like the broome of america... pretty sure u guys have alligators and not big ass salt water crocodiles though#i love crocodiles#and i love australia sm. i love all my freaky lil creatures :) including the LITERAL dinosaur beasts that infest northern australia#i read terri irwin's biography and sobbed. steve irwin had such a passion for crocs and his death was so tragic. americans/anyone who does—#—not know of the AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL TREASURE that was steve irwin pleaaaseee watch one of his interviews from the early 2000's#hashtag: i am a PROUD australian im patriotic in an admiration sort of way ... i love SOME parts of our culture (drinking culture#—work culture#the general concept of mateship)#i know of some americans that have moved to aus that are SHOCKED at how friendly/nice people are??? do you guys not have that????#smiling and asking people how their days have been is like. the norm here. not even a weird thing to do. i just know if i went to america#and did that i'd be treated like a predator or something bhwfjalfJHSA#(sorry for this tangent guys. if you made it here you're a REAL one. *kisses you sensually*)#kuuskylarposting

okay so labour won big why am I actually fucking terrified seeing the reform numbers
#well!! we’re going even further right i fucking guess#these are two leave voting labour seats but still that’s kinda terrifying#the tories yes were right but they weren’t all super far right and they had to at least kinda pretend to care about things#if they DO get these 13 seats that’s gonna change so much and probably push the tories even further right anyway because that’s WHY they los#they’re saying it rn! not conservative enough!#with any kind of luck the party implodes within 4 years but I don’t think that’s likely#I kinda didn’t think about how bad this would be#but yeah we have a far right doing really fucking well now and they’re gonna be in second place in a Lot of places#I’m gonna sleep soon I don’t think I can stomach staying up much later tonight#hopefully there’ll be some good news abt the greens or lib dems doing a bit better#praying we get 4 green seats#also man genuinely fuck the House of Lords but it is nice to see someone who’s not insane and just campaigning as the labour guy on bbc#praying he’s right abt reform being mostly protest votes#the reform deputy leader is. one of the most annoying people I have heard though#labour better do what they fucking promised here bc if they don’t we’re all screwed#anyway! maybe this is a sign to move to bristol. or just. move. but we are also late to the far right party party so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#luke.txt#I’m not gonna sleep properly tonight but so be it
