== Final Lube As A Crew ==

It was a fun and sad day with our crewmates over at @astroglideofficial. The Social Media conductor was having a lovely time, but obviously was bittersweet with it ending. Here's some highlights from the watch party. To see more visit their twitter. If I get some time this weekend i'll try to put all the lube as a crew stuff together on the repo so you can see it all, just not gonna get to it tonight. I tried to get the timeline in order.. if not, apologies!

== GLAADforOFMD==

So in case it comes up.. there was some drama with some other fandoms regarding GLAAD today on Twitter. The TLDR; version is, some tweets went out regarding how disappointed we were about Ted Lasso winning out over Our Flag Means Death for Outstanding Comedy Series. Somehow, Yellowjackets fandom, who won a different category Outstanding Drama Series somehow got the idea that OFMD fans were complaining about Yellowjackets winning. It was corrected multiple times by multiple people but they kept coming. So yeah, twitter being twitter, not a great time. Sending love to @koneko_army and any other crewmates who had to deal with it.

If you wanna see the GlaadWinners visit The Hollywood Reporter

If you really wanna see the whole thread, you can visit Koneko's Twitter but honestly I don't recommend it, I wasn't even part of it and it stresses me out reading it.

== Love Notes ==

Hey there lovelies. Another week has passed. I really hope it wasn't too hard on you-- and if you're off to work tomorrow too, that you get some semblance of rest soon. Sometimes it feels like we're too small to make a difference, or we don't know enough, or we're not pretty enough, or we're not strong enough. Or we're not enough of something, whatever it happens to be. But you know what? You do plenty. You are plenty. You are plenty beautiful, and plenty strong, and plenty full of life, and plenty knowledgeable, and you make plenty of a difference. You make a difference every day, in our lives, and the lives around you. I hope you get some rest and tomorrow you get to see even a glimpse of awesome you truly are. Take care lovelies <3

──    ＊ ︰  WILHELMINA MCGOWAN.  chiron  often  praises  their  tenacious  temperament,  but  mr.  d's  always  going  on  about  how  they  can  be  pretty  spiteful.  that  comes  as  no  surprise,   knowing  that  they've  been  at  camp  now  for  nine years and  they  turned  twenty-two  this  year.  they're  always  humming  fox on the run  by  sweet  when  they're  on  strawberry  picking  duty,  and  people  around  here  can  always  tell  they're  a  child  of  hephaestus  because  of  their firebrand copper hair swinging as she imparts justice and the readiness of the oil-smudged smile with their swift forgiveness.  during  capture  the  flag,  i  saw  them using  geokinesis  and  pyrokinesis  —  it  totally  makes  sense  that  their  godly  parent  claimed  them  after crafting an elaborate trap which helped win capture the flag and knock some bullies of the younger hephaestus kids down a peg.  the  entire  camp  knows  them  to  carry  a  small cross peen hammer that extends to become a celestial bronze war maul,  and  no  matter  who  you  ask,  they'll  tell  you  billie  reminds  them  of  a limning of soot around thick smithing goggles, scabbed up skinned knees, dappled sunlight through leaves, the smell of flashpowder and the burnt cardboard of firecrackers, the golden volcanic glow of fired metal, eyelashes tickling softly against your neck, forgiving but never forgetting- letting it be branded down onto your very bones.  thank  gods  they're  around  now  that  the  mist  is  parting.

──  𝔂𝓸𝓾'𝓻𝓮 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓯𝓵𝓸𝓸𝓭 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓲 𝓪𝓵𝔀𝓪𝔂𝓼 𝓯𝓮𝓮𝓵 𝔂𝓸𝓾 𝓲𝓷 𝓶𝔂 𝓫𝓵𝓸𝓸𝓭.

❂ jolene mcgowan was a metalsmith, by trade, she created beautiful jewellery by smelting gold and silver, set with precious stones and shards of sea glass she collected near her home in the coastal town of cherryfield, maine. she crafted beautiful blooms with leaves which would never wilt, never die, blew glass, she mended timepieces, clocks and pocket watches with deft and reverent hands. these are the soft calloused palms that hephaestus fell hopelessly into; warm and welcoming and good-humoured.

❂ 1943 dawned, rough and unkind as she fought with her family to protect the identity of the father of her baby, born out of wedlock in a small town. the little boy would never make it over the brow of the hill in long island, halfway through massachusetts he falls.

❂ she didn't learn the lesson, though she was stripped of some of the light that drew the god to her in the first place, they reunited yet again and another child was to be born from the glint in their eyes.

❂ red hair and green eyes like her mother, billie is full of fight from the minute she stretches her mouth open and begins to scream, her mother joking that she always had something to say ever since.

❂ wilhelmina, a mouthful for such a small child and even harder to spell, shortened to mina and then through protest changed to will, then to billie.

❂ billie watched her mother hollow out before her very eyes, harden herself to the inevitability of her daughter's demise. if jolene drew back far enough, fast enough, she wouldn't be hurt when the gods didn't favour her offspring once again. wilhelmina yearned for attention, to feel that warmth fall over her once more but instead, she struck out, becoming a problem.

❂ this rejection seared her edges, though the fall from her mother's graces wasn't as far or as fast as her father's fall from olympus, she vowed to herself to always stand up for what she believed in, no matter the personal cost. cowards irk her, though of course, the greek doesn't fall far from the tree, she can be a hypocrite.

❂ billie was a constant flight risk, disappearing for days at a time on a whim but the concern their family felt ebbed, even when they started to see things, when inexplicable things began happening to them.

❂ it took a year and a half to make it to camp half blood, billie never running with crowds long enough for satyrs to catch hold of her. disappearing like smoke between their fingers. billie has some pretty extensive scarring over most of her body from her years on the run but spite is a powerful motivator, the fire she draws from within helped her survive and still does. (might have some collateral damage from this use of flame, she tries not to think about it.)

❂ strode into camp with their head held high, and attacked every part of training with unwavering tenacity no matter how many times they were knocked down. not the most naturally skilled fighter but she makes up for it in spades with ferocity, dogged relentlessness and sheer power. billie never knows when to stay down.

❂ is often caught intercepting tourists and mortals by yelling extremely creative obscenities and insults at them, it gets them to leave, at least she stopped draping her hair over her face and running at them screaming in tongues when chiron asked nicely.

❂ the chip on billie's shoulder is big, anyone who knows her can see it but she's filled in the cracks with liquid gold and moves with the hurt. her word is her bond and though trickery is almost a sure shot, she'll never let you forget that you're a liar and you'll be paying until your final breath. billie hates bullies.

❂ an excellent craftsman and smith, billie will usually help anyone with the forges if they ask, for several years refused to partake in her cabin and father's vocation out of pettiness but now loves the way it takes her out of her head to bear something new into the world.

❂ pinball champion, has never worn a matching pair of socks in her life, feeds the raccoons around camp, used to be a state champion gymnast, will fire-eat and fire dance for special occasions like her friends' birthdays, can remember all the lyrics to any song she hears and hoards music like gold, spends a ridiculous amount of time and money on taking polaroids and buying film, will burn your monopoly board, drums on every nearby surface at all times, accidentally burns things to a crisp when she sneezes, can and will nap absolutely anywhere it's kind of ridiculous.

Hello my beloved alex 💜

So I do this thing every year for halloween where I basically marathon watch horror films/shows/miniseries starting from august to november (I mix in some lighter halloween/spooky themed things too like monster house or paranorman).

BUT the reason I'm telling you all this is bc I was wondering if you, the horror expert, had any recommendations for me to watch? If not that's fine!! I just wanted to ask! ily 🥰

oh my gosh this is incredibly late and im so sorry, i keep telling myself i'll reply and then get very distracted and never do! i hope these are worth the wait though! even if you've watched these before i still rec a rewatch because i'm totally obsessed <3 and i do have to say i'm a huge lover of wes craven, jordan peele and mike flanagan in particular and when seeking out horror recs you should never trust what ppl in social media tags (like tumblr) say about a movie/show say bc they have literally 0 idea what they're talking about (and most of the time they're ari aster fangirls so. that explains it).

good morning ari 💐 11 + 7 ?

Good evening Medli so sorry for taking forever to answer!

11. Do you think you have a particularly unique view on life?

I don't really think so no! I think very many people share my experiences and perspectives :~)

7. Would you cannibalise a dead body in a life-or-death scenario? Does your answer change depending on whether they're a loved one or not?

It's soooo fitting that I saw this question right after watching the most recent episode of Yellowjackets!! My friends keep joking about me being a cannibal alas simply because of my very understandable curiosity about the taste of human flesh :( while I think cannibalising a dead boy in a life-or-death situation is morally justifiable, I don't think I'd do it - simply because in a life-or-death situation I would always choose death. That sounded very grim let me rephrase. I am not a survivalist. In the case of any kind of apocalyptic scenario or being stranded on a desert island or a plane crashing in the Canadian wilderness I am sorry but I am dying. I do not have it in me to hunt for squirrels or eat dead bodies I think. I imagine it would be more difficult to eat someone I loved as well but again. This is not relevant I am dying long before that happens of a migraine or something

[sluttibunnii]

What other shows do you like? What types of horror? Comedy? etc

other shows, i like bojack horseman, i’m watching yellowjackets (very slowly), fleabag. i’m sure there’s more but that’s all i can think of. I’m definitely more of a movies person.

I love really campy funny horrors. Texas Chainsaw 2 is one of my favs but i also like weird deep psychological horrors too. Jordan Peele and Ari Aster’s work is great.

Then there’s the torture porn/ gore fest movies. Which i do enjoy too.

And then some just crazy creative and beautiful films like suspiria? adore.

[badgetfowles]

despite obsessing from afar, and being spoiled on it up the wazoo, I’m finally emotionally ready to watch yellowjackets for the first time.

Some thoughts (on ep 4)

-I love the teen storyline but I’m surprised with how much more Im enjoying the adult timelines!

-I also think it’s so funny the difference between tones in the adult storylines. Shauna’s having a cute, flirty, fun midlife crisis, Nat and Misty are in a buddy cop murder mystery, and then Taissa is straight up in a Ari Aster horror movie, losing her damn mind with her creepy ass son.

-shauna is def my fav like I knew she would be. Melanie does an amazing job - also the difference between young/older Shauna and her relationship with lying/honesty? Young Shauna is so reserved half the time, always unsure, always seemingly holding back. But adult Shauna doesn’t give a FUCK. She’s saying she’s homeland security, she’s threatening a stranger, she’s carving up rabbit for her family home style chili. She thought she was evil as a teen, insecure and furious about it, but embraced that “wickedness” as an adult. Cause she can’t hurt anyone more than Jackie right?

-whoever played Mari makes it seem like she’s has a big old lesbian crush on Jackie. “We should put our lockers next to each other when we get back” girl priorities you’re stranded in the mountains

-the only disappointment i have about Travis's death, is that it means he doesn't die early on in the teen plot.

happy birthday aries legend! be indulgent this weekend ❤️❤️❤️

thank you! i definitely did! i bought lots of books and i watched the entire yellowjackets series lol

[waterbearable]

Like. Crystal isn't REAL I don't believe it SOMETHING IS FISHY HERE I don't care if this is so blatantly incorrect.

[waterbearable]

also these women are fascinating. powerful. i don’t want them to get into trouble but also i would not get within 50 feet of any of these women for fear that they would do something to me

[waterbearable]

doing my gentle and controlled yj watch and i have several small disjointed thoughts but idk. it may have been disproven already but i am. increasingly convinced that crystal was not real.

[waterbearable]

like. i don’t even think it’s better necessarily, but if the only person with actual buy-in on the hunt aside from lottie was van (i don’t really buy tai as having committed here, she’s just going along w van which i think does repeat old patterns), then why not just to subdue lottie from the start? like i GUESS it’s some attempt to suggest groupthink but as soon as lottie starts trying to pursue shauna why would you make it seem like you’re also trying to get her? like i could see at least a couple of them trying to subdue lottie, lottie+van trying to fight them off, chaos/giving into the violence ensues. idk it just does not work for me and the outcome...ehhh

(more in the tags srry but for my non-yj folks cw for mentions of ideation, overdose, addiction)
