-ˋˏ ◡ NEW HORIZONS / @haeminlgc
Hyunsoo turns a small chocolate croissant in his fingers, fiddling with the plastic packaging around it. With every slow spin, his eyes fall to Haemin from afar. The older actor has a new presence; certainly — considering the movie will be his first time on a set like this. ( Or so Hyunsoo can only assume. ) The only logical next step would be to make the other feel as comfortable as possible in this new environment. What better excuse than to do so while they are preparing for a scene together?
He makes his approach cautiously, feet quiet and his hands with the pastry clasped gently against his chest. He holds it out only when close enough to grab his attention, then lightly taps Haemin on the shoulder. "I grabbed the last one. They seem popular with the staff." The rookie actor leans against the black Cadillac prepared for their scene. For now, it is a simple prop in its stagnant state.
"I certainly hope you know how to drive," he gestures towards the car the three actors would eventually have to slide into. Hyunsoo chuckles lightly at his own words, an uncharacteristically playful glint in his eye. Perhaps he has familiarized himself too much with the image of Ryu Jisung these days. Such a sociable action is unlike him; however, these days he's managed to push past some of his most nagging anxieties. "Considering your role... Imagine if we got lost. Sungkyung would be very upset with us."

was thinking about that one blind professor post earlier today and how well it applied to the aptly named Team Dark

(really 'Team Dark' just sounds a lot cooler than 'Team Saves-On-Electricity')

#just another tally added to the board of reasons it's hard to imagine any of these guys ever entertaining guests 👍#the trickiest part of this gag was trying to think of who would ever visit these guys lmao#not the most social of butterflies this group#sth#rouge the bat#amy rose#shadow the hedgehog#e123 omega#team dark#comic#my art#doodles#sonic the hedgehog#is that really the general tag that gets used? which one of these 3 is the main one here a;sldkjf#anyways first time drawing amy!#I like her funny little shark fin from her classic design

My time perception is so bad, i thought its been weeks since i wrote a letter for someone in slowly, and waiting for a reply anxiously. But in reality, its only been four days.

to me the appeal of pathetic vampires is similar to the appeal of stupid cats. you have the teeth and claws to rip through flesh to your heart's content, but here you are. paw stuck to a quilt. staring woefully with eyes the size of saucers to get someone to help. same goes for a vampire failing miserably to use a touchscreen because his fingers are too cold.

Day 806
One of the weirdest things about not having my shit together and then suddenly having the capacity to do so is learning how to do so. In a way that feels… artificial.
Like, I know logically I should not use my mother as a model of how a functional adult works because I am a dysfunctional adult with medical needs pretending to be a functioning adult. Also, the ongoing joke about my mother is that she will outlast everyone, even me.
Which sounds morbid, but I mean it in a light hearted way. Let me put it this way, if my mother had grandchildren, she would be that trope-y grandmother who acts like they’re still in their 20s and go on rollercoasters and all sorts of fun stuff with the kids.
Ignoring the fact my mother did go on rollercoasters last year because that is her jam.
The point is, my mother makes every day adult life look easy, and I’m not talking about the housekeeping, cooking or anything like that. That stuff is hard and she complains about it as much as the next person. I’m talking more about the social obligations that are required of us as people.
Both my parents make keeping in touch with others to be as easy as breathing. Whether it is people from their childhood, university days or even working career there are a number of people they still keep in contact with. This is especially impressive because a lot of this was before social media and cell phones were even a thing.
I am not like that, and for most of my early working career I didn’t keep in touch with people that I should have. People I genuinely get along with, enjoy talking to and would have liked to see where life has taken them. However, this is not something that comes naturally to me.
Now, I’m not a social butterfly, and the older I’ve gotten the more I’ve noticed my own sensory hangups, but this issue isn’t necessarily the fact I don’t want to be social. I just don’t think about it, like many things in my life. Such as cleaning, flossing my teeth and getting regular exercise. Now I don’t know if this is a byproduct of the ADHD, or if there is something else going on…
I say that hesitantly because I am also aware that I function best when everything in my life is a task, even the things I do for fun.
Complete different side note, I have done more things that I want to do, for fun in the past month than probably in the past decade, because I fucking write it down as a thing I want to do. What the flying fuck.
At any rate, this has resulted in the fact that I have to write down my social connections as a task to be done. Not because I don’t want to do it, but because I just won’t do it. I did that in December, I wrote down to email Merry Christmas to everyone in my contacts, otherwise it won’t be done.
Just like today, where I spent a few minutes emailing the two people I would like to have tea with, if they want to have a meetup this month. It only took a few minutes, but I swear to god if I didn’t write the damn thing down…
I envy my mom, she doesn’t think like that and because of it she has a much wider social network than I do. Not that I need a wide social network, I get tired mentally too easily to do what she does, but there are days I wish it would come a bit more naturally to me.
#trying to socialize#still my own keeper#I'm setting up playdates#actually I should ask the only gamer of the two if he plays co-op games...

Please stop seeing politics as an identity and start seeing it as a collective means for change

main take aways from Halloween (1978) rewatch:
michael myers is canonically 21??? this bitch should be at the club
*sees tiddies* ***MURDEROUS RAMPAGE NOISES***
that's it that's the movie
outside of the fact that everyone who has sex is murdered by the narrative, this is a surprisingly chill portrayal of female sexuality? these teen girls are horny and actively enjoying Getting It On with their boytoys. no pushy boyfriends sneaking in through their bedroom windows--these ladies are taking the initiative to sneak out and GET SOME. one of them gets laid and then immediately orders her boyfriend to get her a beer. (yes she gets Slashered soon afterward, but so does the boyfriend so honestly, gender equality.) yes the Final Girl is the only one not having sex, but she's not bullied for that, nor are her friends slut shamed except possibly by being murdered by the narrative
actually the only character who is shown being morally condemned on-screen is michael myers. specifically FOR his violent overreaction to other people's sex lives. (people he is spying on). metaphorically, the villain is American Puritanism sticking its judgy nose into other people's business.
aka Michael Myers Is A Republican
but actually the real villain is the doctor. guy's a judgemental, shaming, pathologizing asshole. and he's been in charge of michael's care since he was SIX YEARS OLD? kid never had a chance. i'd go on a killing spree too
also the parents. where are the parents? it's halloween night and all the teenage girls are home babysitting their younger siblings? come to think of it, michael's first victim was his own older sister, whom he killed while she was babysitting him. teen girls are really shouldering a labour burden here. maybe parentification is the true villain
side note: mike commits his first murder wearing a clown costume...which is never referenced again? his 'iconic' costume is a generic mask and wig and jumpsuit, when we coulda had a Killer Clown Michael Myers??? travesty
i like how the Final Girl and her friend casually smoke weed in her car. yeah she's an honor student and her friend is the sheriff's daughter. yeah they smoke weed. so what it's 1978
(to reiterate, mike is 21 and should be at the club. im not saying he shouldn't be rampaging, im saying it's sad that he broke out, tasted freedom for the first time in his life, and immediately snuck back into his childhood home to go rampaging. let's have a remake where he goes to a nightclub and has a few beers. maybe some slutty dancing. then rampage)
oh no he's hot

#HALLOWEEN#halloween the movie#michael myers#do you think he's a mike? mikey? to his friends? if slashers had friends?#i'll be honest i was expecting this movie to be way more of a bitch to its female characters#i mean yeah they died but so did some dudes#there's just a lack of cattiness compared to the way most later movies portrayed teenage girls idk#yeah the Final Girl is a Virgin and a Bookworm. but there's no bullying or any strong sense that's she's morally superior to everyone else#mostly she AND the other girls feel a bit sorry for her lack of a social life. one even tries to set her up with a date to the school dance#solidarity! trying to get your nerd friend laid!#overall it's just teenagers being teenagers and then a slasher comes in and ruins everything with his Lack Of Chill#like yeah dude sometimes teenagers have sex. get over it#also something to be said about how while the girl who survives is the one who isn't sexually active and dresses conservatively...#ultimately those things aren't ENOUGH to prevent her from being targeted#you could say that the other girls 'provoked' the villain (the same way women irl are so often accused of provoking their attackers)#but ultimately that doesn't keep the Final Girl safe. it just delays the inevitable.#because violent men never need excuses. no matter how eager society is to provide them.#ultimately she is at the mercy of the same violent whims because it was never her behavior that invited the violence.#gendered violence doesn't need an invitation.#also she doesn't save herself the doctor saves her#it's not her actions or choices that put her in danger OR save her from it--once again it is the whim of a man#no this wasn't intended to be a feminist movie it's just fun how you could argue it that way

Continuing a bit from this post where Steve is the most background character of all time: Robin edition.
Robin is by no means ‘internet famous’ but she likes to do crafts and has a TikTok account. When she’s not defending Steve’s cryptid-Chicago-man ass in comments, she’s posting videos of her projects.
Steve makes an occasional guest appearance in her videos but it takes forever for anyone to notice because she never shows his face.
She has a running series on her account (five parts so far) called ‘Crafts and Tea.’
The posts are cut together clips of Robin working on her current bead project whole Steve complains about whatever is bothering him off-screen. The last one has her making a beaded purse and Steve complaining about his parents.
The only reason people realize that her off-screen roommate is the cryptid chicago man everybody is obsessed with is because she posted a video titled, ‘painting the bottom of my bestie’s shoes until he notices.’
People connected it to a video of someone singing on the subway. Steve is in the background with his legs stretched out and the soles of his shoes visibly a painted sunset. He is also, notably, the only person enjoying the singing.
#Steve’s always getting caught in other people’s videos because he’s unemployed#he’s just out and about all the time hecause he has nothing better to do#it’s so annoying how popular Steve is online because some of their friends actually try get popular#and he is out preforming all of them and he doesn’t even have social media!#one of Dustin’s most popular videos is literally him - in an Australian accent - telling people to treat Steve like a wild animal#and not approach him bc he’s not going to understand what’s going on#steve harrington#robin buckley

Little Stan getting manipulated by Bill has excellent angst potential but consider.
Stanley just, keeps tricking Bill. Because Bill would definitely massively underestimate Stanley and how far he’ll go to protect Ford (like in the actual show). We also know Stanley has the street smarts between the twins and could absolutely tell Bill is full of it.
And because Bill would absolutely loose his mind if he kept getting foiled by a snot nosed eight year old that isn’t even supposed to be here
I like to think that he doesn’t even try that hard he just does not even care about bill
#I saw someone saying that ford calls bill this master manipulator that uses mind tricks to get his way#but ford is just socially inept and desperate for validation from his muse that he just#falls for it insanely easily#ford and fidds being all like “BEWARE BILL - HE’LL TRY TRICK YOU!! HE’S DANGEROUS!!”#and little Stan is confused like “you mean that guy who tried to convince me to sell you out for like knowledge or whatever?”#remember - Stan is literally the one who tells dipper how to defeat Bill in their first fight with him#he’s also the one to finally beat him at the end#and the only one NOT to make a deal with Bill#I reckon even as a kid he wouldn’t give his brother up for anything.#my art#ask#twins in time au#stan pines#stanley pines#bill cipher
