#but it drives me insane

[pseudophan]

Worst part of twitter drama is that they LOVE to pull up out of context clips of BIG to make their point it's so annoying and makes no sense most of the time.

it's literally the dumbest shit. first of all half the clips they post is out of context but even when it isn't my biggest thing is like? that video is five years old atp? and ofc anything he said still stands if he hasn't contradicted it since but if he HAS then.. what are you doing. mainly him talking about wanting to keep his personal life private and not share details about his and phil's relationship. very valid! and to an extent that definitely still stands! but people use that clip to say you can't even say they're together cause that's "speculating", which is a double whammy cause 1. he didn't actually say we can't say they're together he just said HE wasn't going to go any deeper on it and, most importantly, 2. since then he's said??? so much???? more ?????? you can point to dan saying he wants to keep shit private all you want but it's insane to do that and then ignore the frankly baffling amount of instances since then of him Not Keeping Shit Private

but yeah in general big is a very nuanced video and the vast majority of clips in there can't really be shared as a gotcha for any side of any argument cause most of it will have another moment five minutes later where he says something different/adds to it. the overall message of big in terms of us as fans is essentially 'it sucked to be pestered about my personal life and boundaries were very much crossed but i don't hold any grudges and i understand and am flattered by the passion and there were also a lot of funny times i wish i could have partaken more in', which is a very nuanced stance that's still even just the very surface of all he was saying

sometimes it feels like when artistic people get super successful and wealthy their art becomes something glossy and manufactured, it doesn’t feel like expression of self it feels like expression of capital

I have such a big problem because there is this girl that I used to go to school with and we didn’t like each other at all and idek why. I never really gave her a chance and idk I was kinda cold to her too.

But the thing is, she is also a stranger things fan and she even got to go to dortmund and met Finn at the comic con and idk if she likes byler but I feel like we would actually get along pretty well but I totally missed the chance to be friends with her😭.

Which is totally on me💀. Like… 100% my fault, I was cold and didn’t give her a chance the first time around and now I kinda regret it. And I also can’t really get up the courage to text her or anything and AHHHHHH, I hate this!!

Like, there are two people I know that I share my interest in stranger things with but I’m far from being friends with either them🥲⚰️

why does tumblr freak out when you edit a post on desktop that has “<3” in it? like… why does it change it? bc every time i edit a post with that in there, it changes it to &lt;3 AND I DONT UNDERSTAND

one of my greatest pet peeves in fiction, and it is truly stupid I know, is that no one seems to understand how genuinely hard it is to kill someone via stabbing. stab wounds have a mortality rate of like 5%. especially abdominal stabbing. tv shows and movies show dudes getting stabbed one time in the lower abdomen with a tiny knife and then they fall over. like what did he die of precisely. that man died of Small Knife

when u go to write a mentally ill person in ur story you are presented two options. the first option is to write your mental illness realistically as you actually experience it with all the ups and downs and people who are like you will resonate with it and feel seen. except every person who reads instagram infographics on mental health that uses the phrase narcicisst for anyone who does anything that crosses them and unironically call themself a dark empath will call you scary and tell you that youre demonizing mentally ill people

the second option is to lie and write inspiration porn for those people to get hard to

hiii everybody are you normal about Falin showing Laios the same little spell that Marcille showed her? are you normal about Falin remembering it fondly enough that it was one of the first things she showed her brother while trying to teach him magic?

Watching Home Alone is so funny it’s like

Kevin’s mom: *hyperventilating into a paper bag* I can’t believe I left my son home alone, he has to be so terrified, my poor baby boy all alone I need to go get him-

Kevin: *actively planning to commit war crimes*

Using Lo-fi Study Nights at Seacaster Manor as a way to boost his popularity and help further the goals of his friends while also refusing to acknowledge that the actual purpose is to never have to be alone in that big empty house is PEAK Fabian behavior. Can anyone hear me?? Lou I am in your WALLS

Of course it needed to happen at a ball. Of course it needed to be a dance. Of course Aziraphale was so fixated on that. From his perspective what could be a more perfect way to blatantly declare I love you the way humans love each other? What could be a more perfect way to wordlessly shout I love you to the point of defiance of what I am? Angels don't dance but darling I do. I'm the angel that goes with you. We don't have to be lonely. We can just be us.

Imagine you're Dazai and you're 15.

You've just met this kid(also 15), who is loud and annoying and won't do a single thing you tell him to. Not only has he got a ridiculously strong ability but he has crazy control over it and he can handle himself in a fight. He's the leader of gang. The Port Mafia views him as a serious threat.

And you're forming your opinions as you're being made to team up with this brash annoying kid who keeps trampling on all your good plans with his own ideas. Clearly, he's used to doing what he wants when he wants and it grates on you.

The sooner this is over the better.

But then, it's not all bad. You don't really get to hang out with kids your age. Or kids in general, most of the people you know are adults (who also happen to be criminals). As annoying as he is, it's fun messing with each other. You go to an arcade together and make a silly bet.

He places his stakes, so you have to think of your own. Obviously, you come up with an ingenious idea. If he loses, this kid who does whatever he wants, he has to be your dog for life. It's the kind of dumb bet kids your age would make, right? You've heard that before.

You'll make him carry about some stuff with his ability and lord it over him for a while and it will be funny.

Only then his friends- members of his gang, The Sheep- walk in and he hides from them. Because of you. You are, after all, from a rival gang. You call them over just to mess with him.

And you watch the kid you got to know start to shrink. All his noise goes quiet. All his confidence dissipates. That annoyingly loud kid you've gotten used to, the one who won't do as you say, who argued back all the time, just stands there as his so-called friends chip away at him. You watch as they treat him like-

Like a dog.
