speak of self esteem, someone that have their asteroid medusa (149) in your 2nd are the one that silently judge and mock you. the one that try to attack your self esteem. the one that underestimate you; and will start to think "whats cool about them?" if you get great achievement in life. EVEN think that you dont deserve that and it should be them because they think theyre way much better than you 😹😹 what a bitch. beware of them try to steal your great things as a result ‼️😒👹💥💥

asteroid nemesis (128) in house shows ab whats hurt you then you develop animosity/hatred to it, check the theme of the house

1h - hatred towards self identity, hatred towards how people see you, you can hate your looks :(

2h - hatred towards possessions. You may lacks of material possessions, feel less than others in that area and you hate it

3h - hatred towards sibling, neighbor

4h - hatred towards family

5h - hatred towards "spotlight", flings, drama, childlike spirit

6h - hatred towards coworker, health (you may feel youre less healthy than others)

7h - hatred towards partner (✋💀💀), partnership itself. you likely wanna do everything alone

8h - hatred towards mystery. you hate it when someone hides something from you, not clear ab something, keeping something from you, being secretive

9h - hatred towards um.... tw religions. sorry you probably hate particular beliefs. hatred towards travelling, inlaws are also possible

11h - hatred towards friend, hatred towards what you see on internet. can be indicator of someone that dont like to use social media, or you give hate speech/comments on social media

12h - hatred towards whats "out of reach"

cardinal moons are pure souls that surrounded by "darkness". they can easily influenced by negativity from their surrounding so they MUST, i say MUST to keep good ppl around them or....bye (aka they can turn themselves into the evil)

what's with sag venus and having interest in things that they shouldnt be interested to

taurus women have this fiery strong badass facade to them, while the men looks like cute puppy (and wise???) lmao (for sun moon mars)

mutable mercury in first decan (0°-9°) why are you like to lie for no reason. are prone to say what they dont really mean. go seek better hobbies!

some of leo sun men are gay but they hide it by having love relationship with women... that's very weird (and irritating) of you

undeveloped earth venus only falls for/want to dating popular goodlooking mf even if in personality wise theyre not that best and it can leads to unfulfilling relationship 💁‍♀️

talk ab earth venus, i see them always fall for fixed sign venus (no im not referring them fixed venus as bad one that i mentioned above)

developed earth venus? they dont need to be with someone to increase their status, they simply being the (true) great person they are 🤩 (they know how to and do get the good life by themselves!!)

what i like ab fire moon is theyre so passionate but sometimes it can be too passionate where it leads to them making unnecessary drama 😭😭

water suns are prone to being delusional 😹😹

air venus stop giving mixed signals

i cant help but think ab where sagittarius in your chart shows what's "wild", "crazy" about you. thats why pluto in sag generations being seen as scary bcs the power (pluto rules ab power) they have.... 😹😹

moon-neptune aspects 🤝 say something then regret it

libra big 6 placements 🤝 attract petty ppl (and then get attacked, being seen as bad one when they just want to defend/protect themselves :()

undeveloped fixed moon 🤝 being petty

pluto in earth house (2h/6h/10h) are the brat but loved lmao

aqua mars 🤝 makes ppl amazed

air sign jupiter give the vibes of unstoppable teenagers (in a good way). see blackpink lisa (aqua jupiter), nct jaemin (gemini jupiter), newjeans hanni (libra jupiter), or another air sign jupiter you know! 😉

saturn-sun aspect are prone to experience unexpected loss :(

there's nothing more i hate in synastry than squaring to venus aspect... bc i feel unwanted there 🧍‍♀️🪓

--------------

The paddock was alive with the hum of excitement. Amelie had always felt the energy of the Mexican Grand Prix—after all, it was her home race, a celebration that brought the entire family together. But today, there was a twist to that familiar excitement, a sense of dread that sat in the pit of her stomach. She hadn’t wanted to be here, not really. It wasn’t the race, nor the excitement of the weekend, but the inevitable.

She would have to see him. Lando.

The thought made her stomach turn, her palms feel clammy despite the heat of the midday sun. She hadn’t been able to escape the images of him on the screens throughout the paddock—his face, those eyes, the wild mop of curls—but seeing him in person again after almost a year... that was something entirely different.

She and Lando had been close once. Too close. She could still feel the lingering warmth of his touch, his breath on her neck, and the way he had always made her feel like she was the only person in the room. Their messy situation, a relationship that never quite was and yet had never been truly over, had been the backdrop of her life for so long. The late-night texts, the whispers of things unspoken, and the undeniable chemistry that had made everything more complicated.

And then it ended—quietly, unexpectedly, without closure. One day, it was just... gone.

The memories from their time together felt like a haze. In the years since they stopped talking, Amelie had tried to convince herself that it didn’t matter, that it wasn’t a big deal. But deep down, she knew it had been. Lando had been the one person who truly understood her during one of the most chaotic periods of her life. When everything else was spinning out of control, they had shared something that felt real. But like everything else in her life, it was fleeting. Just like the fading glow of a shooting star.

Her eyes scanned the paddock, trying to find a distraction, a way to get through the day without encountering him. But no matter how hard she tried, her mind kept returning to the same thoughts.

Amelie pushed the thoughts of Lando out of her mind as best as she could. She had been doing this for months now, pretending that she didn’t care, that she hadn’t been a mess when they stopped talking. But she couldn’t fool herself anymore, especially not now, standing in the middle of the paddock, surrounded by the excitement of the weekend.

—Amelie!— Charles called, his voice cutting through her tangled thoughts. He waved enthusiastically, drawing her attention.

She smiled, trying to appear relaxed, despite the storm of emotions brewing inside her. —Hey, Charles,— she said, walking over to him.

He grinned, clearly happy to see her. —I see you’re surviving the madness,— he teased.

—Just about,— she replied, forcing herself to sound casual. —It’s hard to avoid the chaos with everyone and their cameras here.—

Charles chuckled, then gestured toward a woman standing next to him. —I’d like you to meet Alexandra. She’s from Mexico too, actually.—

Amelie turned her attention to the woman beside him. Alexandra had a soft, radiant smile that made her feel instantly at ease. She was beautiful, but in a way that wasn’t intimidating. Her long black hair flowed effortlessly, and she wore a warm, elegant smile that reminded Amelie of home.

—Hi, it’s so nice to meet you!— Alexandra said, her accent hinting at her upbringing in Monaco, though she clearly had Mexican roots.

Amelie returned the smile, feeling an unexpected surge of familiarity. —It’s great to meet you too,— she replied, her voice a little softer than she intended. —I’m sure Charles has already told you how crazy this weekend is.—

The two women shared a laugh, and the conversation flowed easily. For a moment, it felt like everything might be fine. Amelie pushed the thought of Lando further back in her mind, trying to enjoy the rare sense of calm that came with talking to someone new. But then, something shifted in the air. She felt it before she even saw him. That familiar weight.

Amelie’s heart stuttered in her chest.

Lando.

She didn’t need to turn around to know he was there. She could feel his presence as clearly as if he’d just walked into the room. The energy in the paddock had shifted, and Amelie’s gaze was immediately drawn to the spot where he stood.

He was standing by one of the team garages, his hands resting casually in the pockets of his McLaren jacket. He looked... different, somehow. The last time she had seen him, he had been more carefree, his eyes always scanning for a laugh. Now, his posture seemed a little more guarded, as if he was bracing himself for something. His gaze swept across the crowd, briefly catching her eyes.

Amelie froze.

Time seemed to stretch as their gazes locked. She couldn’t breathe. It was like everything had stopped, the world around them blurring into the background.

And then, just as quickly as it had started, he looked away.

Amelie’s pulse pounded in her ears, and she fought to steady her breathing. Her chest felt tight, her throat constricting as the years of unresolved tension came crashing back. That moment—those few seconds, had unlocked everything she had been trying so hard to suppress.

A flood of memories rushed in those late-night conversations, the laughter, the way he had looked at her in those fleeting moments when they both pretended they were just friends. The moments they shared when neither of them was brave enough to admit how they felt.

But the past wasn’t a comforting place. It was messy. Hurtful.

And she had spent so long telling herself she was over it. That it didn’t matter anymore.

But here he was again, right in front of her. And it felt like a betrayal.

Why the hell did I even come here?

Her mind raced as she quickly turned to Alexandra, her heart hammering in her chest.

—Hey, uh... I’ll be right back,— she blurted, her words feeling foreign on her tongue. —I need to... find my sister.—

Charles and Alexandra exchanged curious glances, but Amelie was already walking away, her footsteps quick and shaky. She didn’t know where she was going, just that she needed to get away from him, away from all the feelings that had come rushing back.

Her eyes scanned the paddock frantically, her heart sinking as she saw the faces of people she knew—George, Alex, Carlos, and others, all talking and laughing, oblivious to the storm brewing inside her. But none of them were Stella.

Stella.

The thought of her sister grounded Amelie, and she pushed through the crowd, searching desperately. She needed Stella’s calm, her steadiness, her ability to make everything feel just a little bit less chaotic.

Finally, she spotted her sister and Checo near the Red Bull hospitality. Amelie’s steps faltered as she approached, her body trembling with anxiety.

—Stella!— she called, her voice a little too loud, a little too sharp.

Stella looked up, her expression immediately softening as she saw the panic in Amelie’s eyes. —Amelie, hey, are you okay?—

Amelie felt a rush of relief wash over her. She didn’t care that they were in the middle of the paddock with people all around them. She just needed her sister right now.

—I... I saw him,— she whispered, her voice tight. —I saw Lando. And it was... it was like I couldn’t breathe. I can’t... I don’t know what to do, Stella.—

Stella’s face softened with understanding. She reached out, pulling Amelie into a tight hug.

—Take a deep breath,— Stella murmured. —You don’t have to face this alone. We’re here for you, always.—

Amelie squeezed her eyes shut, letting her sister’s embrace steady her. She was here. She was safe.

But as she pulled back, her gaze flickered across the paddock once again.

And for just a moment, she swore she saw Lando watching her from across the way, his eyes full of something she couldn’t quite place.

Her heart skipped again. And just like that, the past was back, haunting her every step.

At this point the lullaby's daddy drama is basically one of those cheesy soap operas with plots that loves contradicting themselves but you can't help tune in next week's episode because of the drama ✨ 💅

Morgan definitely making a permanent section of this whole thing in his newspaper hands down and I can't help but laugh at the image of gossipy aunts, old grannies etc be spilling tea whenever there's an update like my mom and aunt each time their fav show updated

Everything about Lullaby's dad situation is so scandalous that it becomes one of the most gossiped about things in the world. People start placing bets on who will assert themselves as her father next and who actually is the father.

It's even popular with the people who aren't necessarily prone to gossip because along with all the tabloids discussing the baby daddy drama and her mother, there are more wholesome articles when reporters are able to snap a few pictures of one of the father candidates trying to bond with Lullaby.

embarrassingly…i’m part of the jorgocles side of greek myth so i hardly know anything about helen. 😔😔😔 (i deserve to be pelted with tomatoes) why do you think she was actually a ghost?

NO EMBARRASSMENT MY FRIEND!!!

I do not gatekeep the Greek mythology fandom! And Jorge's music is ✨sublime✨

I entered the Transformers fandom from the Bay movies, which are most likely the worst interpretation, or down there xD I don't judge which content you consume, if we are in the same fandom, we are in the same fandom ♥️ ohana or something xD

Leave the tomato for the pizza sauce but for the love of all the gods, keep the pineapple away from it xD

Long intro.

I don't personally think Helen was a ghost (tags of this post), it's a thing that Euripides says in his play Helen.

(Euripides, Sophocles best boy and Aeschylus are the main playwriters we have surviving work for, and are considered sources for the Epic Cycle right after the og, Homer)

Basically since Euripides was a misogynistic classic-Athens inhabitant, he needed Helen to have kept herself untouched for her to be a heroine (🙄).

So he comes up with this: the Helen at Troy was an eidolon (ghost, image) and the real Helen was waiting for Menelaos in Egypt all along.

(possibly this eidolon tradition is earlier than Euripides: he's still very sus in his portrayal of women. He's trying, but he's got biases)

This is bonkers, right?

...and that is why I was mentioning it in the tags: knowing the sources doesn't make you superior to people knowing only the version of the retellings, it just makes it so you know the wildly insane takes people always had along the ages.

Like Dictys, the og crack provider (roman times) was IN LOVE with Palamedes (the guy who threatened Odysseus' son to get Odysseus to join the war), basically all the time he spends on scene he's being praised by either by the other characters or by the narrator. When Odysseus kills him, the narrator let us know it was because Ody couldn't stand someone being better than him lmao.

THE SOURCES ARE INSANELY FUN AND FUNNY

The best is the Iliad. Action, drama, slapstick, it has it all :D and it's free online, like fanfiction of insane quality - like the one I write 💅

You can read the play Helen online free here: it's super fun (after Teucer being sad) the first part is Helen and Menelaos looking for the braincell and in the second they are so cute, funny and fluffy I was ahhhh🥰

You can find both the works of Homer and the works of the three main playwriters I mentioned, and also all the other main sources both in the link of the play, by looking stuff up, and with Topostext.

My favorite is Ajax by Sophocles - because of Odysseus part in it, Ajax is kind of an ass xS

i’d like more insight on eredin’s aforementioned ‘obscure memes’ *please* I must know what he’s reblogging

Ah. Ah. So you wish to know of Eredin’s “obscure memes,” do you?

Very well. I shall divulge, though it pains me deeply.

I am currently seated in the garden this fine morning, attempting to enjoy an apple cassis drink in peace—yes, apple cassis, because I am refined—when I made the grave mistake of checking the assistants’ group chat. And what do I find there?

Eredin.

He has abandoned all pretense of professionalism. Ever since chocolate was mentioned in passing (I don’t even recall when, but clearly the moment is burned into his mind), he has forsaken the herbal teas the healers so carefully selected. Tea? Forgotten. Disregarded. It is now exclusively hot chocolate. Morning, noon, and night.

The kettle? Unused.

The mugs? All suspiciously chocolate-stained.

But I digress.

He shared a picture first—a dramatically lit image of the cup of hot chocolate with the caption: ✨ "POV: You're Lord Lindir’s Assistant and Living on Pure Caffeine and Stress" ✨

Oh, but it did not end there.

Moments later—a video. A video.

Entitled: 🎥 "GET READY WITH ME: Assistant to Lord Lindir (A Day of Cramps, Chaos & Chocolate ☕✨💀)"

I—I confess I had to set my drink down.

The audacity. The drama. He begins the video with an over-the-top sigh, saying:

"Being the assistant to a poet of delicate constitution is a full-time job. Let me take you through my tragic morning routine."

Tragic. TRAGIC.

Scene One: Dramatic close-up of him choosing between exactly one outfit because, quote, "Uniformity is key to hiding the emotional damage." Scene Two: Slow-motion walk through the corridor with a cup of hot chocolate, set to the most sorrowful lute music imaginable. AND I WOULD KNOW- Scene Three: Whispering dramatically into the camera, "The Lord is resting; one must tread lightly—lest the fainting spells return."

And the final blow—he pans dramatically to the window and says:

"Will I survive another day of poetic suffering? Will the tea ever return? Will Lindir ever stop glaring at me over his apple cassis drink?"

I was not glaring. I was observing, with appropriate concern.

Ah—you thought it ended there? Alas, no.

After the hot chocolate saga and his cinematic masterpiece of a morning routine, Eredin had the audacity—nay, the boldness—to send yet another picture to the assistants' group chat.

A selfie. Yes, a selfie.

Fresh from his extensive (and, frankly, unnecessary) hair care routine, curls perfectly arranged, glowing like the morning dew on Rivendell’s finest leaves.

Captioned: ✨ "OMW to see the Valar 😇💅✨ #Blessed #Flawless #CurlsForTheCause"

The nerve.

He even added:

"If I don’t return, know that I looked immaculate when they smote me."

As if anyone was planning on smiting him for having luscious curls. I—I cannot.

And would you believe—he posed dramatically by the window with the sun catching his hair just so, adding:

"If the Valar are watching, I must be presentable."

Eredin, dearest, you are fetching hot chocolate, not ascending to Eru Ilúvatar’s throne.

I sipped my apple cassis in silent judgment.

In conclusion: These are the “obscure memes” you speak of. Eredin has become a menace armed with a cup of chocolate and questionable cinematic choices. The assistants of Rivendell are beside themselves.

Pray for me.

Lindir of Rivendell, Long-Suffering Lord of Secondhand Embarrassment and Firsthand Headaches.

Reality TV in the Digital Age: Fame, Fans and Cultural Influence

Imagine real life with a sprinkle of drama ✨ that keeps you hooked on every episode—that’s what Reality TV is all about. Love Island and Keeping Up with the Kardashians (KUWTK) have changed TV by mixing drama with real life, making super addictive shows that are a bit controversial. These shows grab viewers with a blend of aspiration, drama, and cultural vibes 💅.

So, it turns out that people really dig reality TV because it gives them this feeling of realness and emotional ties 😭, even though a lot of what we see is totally staged, as per research (Frontiers, 2019). It's wild how this mix of real life and performance has turned people from just watching into getting involved. So, they're just hanging out online, sharing memes, and creating digital spaces for their favorite shows and celebrities.

In this post, we will discuss how the drama of Love Island and KUWTK draws our attention and how they shape societal norms and personal identities through reality TV.

Digital fandoms have really changed the game for reality TV, making it way more interactive and turning casual viewers into engaged participants. Shows like Love Island and KUWTK really get people talking, with fans breaking down every little moment on Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok. One dramatic recoupling or a hilarious Kardashian meme can totally kick off a ton of online buzz, GIFs, and things that go viral. So, Love Island totally nails it with hashtags and all that exciting stuff like

“I’ve got a text!”

to build a really engaged online community (BrandVision, 2024).

Some researchers label the show's engagement and viewership as "sousveillance." Its authenticity and production decisions are being critiqued as well as watched (L'Hoiry, 2021). Thus, the Kardashians master social media, employing it to maintain and build their celebrity brand (BrandVM, 2023). They skillfully blend real and fake photos online to show followers their lives.

Digital fandoms have transformed how audiences engage with reality TV. Now, viewers aren't simply watching; they're contributing to the story.

KUWTK was more than just a show—it was all about the image. Flashy cars, fancy clothes, and big houses are now considered signs of success, influencing how young people view achievement. Zhao (2018) found that seeing curated luxury over and over can make people less empathetic towards those with less money and strengthen the idea that status and stuff are what really count.

While many perceive reality TV solely as entertainment, it actually exerts a more significant influence than one might initially believe. With all the drama, luxury, and nonstop chatter online, shows like Love Island and KUWTK aren't just mirroring culture—they're influencing it.

And honestly, no matter how we feel about it, we’re all still tuning in.
