Give us more President Gossip please

okay so i had a bunch of tour guide friends who went to george washington’s mount vernon, which was like, at its lowest point and about to close (because public libraries weren’t federally funded until i believe the 1930s and truman was the first president to get a presidential library, and all presidents before truman have homes that are privately funded tourist attractions) until the mount vernon ladies association raised enough money to keep it in business. it’s supposed to be a marvel now; they have historical reenactors and a whole bunch of education programs.

the PROBLEM is that the tours...suck. and to be fair, they get 8000 visitors a day on a busy day, so they have to make them concise to get everyone in. but my tour guide friends told me that the guides literally like...shoved them through the house and snapped at them whenever they had questions. which is just. bad tour guide behavior. your job is to educate, you know?

anyway the tour itself ended up being like 15 minutes despite them having to book a spot TWO HOURS in advance and then the docents were kind of just like “go look at the vegetable gardens or something we don’t give a fuck” and my boss was so incensed by her experience that she decided our tours were going to be THREE TIMES AS LONG as the mount vernon tours and we would ALWAYS encourage questions.

moral of the story is spite is a great motivator.

A conversation with @drearncatcher37 about genders and jeans: (Context because I don't want to include all the details: we were talking about how validating it is to wear the jeans associated with your actual gender if you're binary trans. My friend joked that if you wear jeans that don't match your true gender, they'll fly off your legs.) Friend: 👖💨 whoosh Me: Nonbinary people forced to invent new type of jeans in order to avoid public embarrassment Friend: They're called "in betweans", and they have all sorts of crazy pockets Me: They have functional pockets, but the sizes are words like "fabulous" and sometimes a random number. Good luck. Friend: Sizes include "fabulous", "sriracha", "32", "a little bigger than fabulous", "16", and "medium". The "16" is bigger than the "32". Medium changes size every day. Shipping details are just "good luck". Me: "I'm a size 5 fabulous. Or at least I was last week." Friend: "I ordered a Medium on January 26th and it fit well. Any chance I could get another one that size?" "Hang on." *customer service representative goes and spins the great big Wheel of Misfortune* "You can but it only comes with one leg hole." Me: 😂 Friend: There are pockets shaped like squiggles and pockets in between mens and women's size pockets and also pockets that randomly spit out flocks of juvenile budgie birds. Who knows what's going on there

@drearncatcher37 said:  HelLO who do you think Jen and Kira’s parents are?

HEWWO FREN. 

I think Kira’s parents are Seladon and Gurjin, for now. I’m 100% sure that her mother is Seladon because the book describes how she felt the throne in the ruins was made for her. And that she looks exactly like Seladon anyway. The green in her hair can hint at Drenchen heritage, but it can also hint at Stonewood as well. I’m also behind Kylan and Brea being her parents, because I think it’s sweet. 

If that is the case, then Jen’s father is Rian and his mother is Deet. I personally see no resemblance of Grottan in Jen at all so I’m kinda not? Behind this one. (the ship is cute tho I’ll give it that) The fact that Jen is a lot like Kylan just secures my headcanon that Kylan is the father and not Rian. But I also like to think Rian AND Kylan are his dads, because I’m ship trash. :^) 

That aside, I think Jen’s father is definitely Kylan, but I’m not sure who the mother is. It can’t really be Brea because it would make Jen and Kira cousins. Maybe she’s just not mentioned or she’s nameless, since in the OG movie and the book he remembers his mother but she’s never named. So it’s still a mystery for now. 

tldr; Jen’s father is Kylan. His mother is unknown. Kira’s parents are Seladon and Gurjin.

2) What is your favourite thing about self shipping?

Daydreaming about my f/os! It's fun coming up with new scenarios tbh and helps me figure out the relationship dynamic

3) If you could give one piece of advice to the newer members of the community, what advice would you give?

Don't be embarrassed about being judged for whatever reason. Just do what makes you happy and people will support it.

5) Use this to give a special shout-out to the people in the community who have really helped shape your experience here. You can just use names, or treat this like an Oscar speech. It is completely up to you :D

Ok, no Oscar speech but y'all are cool:

@lunarpanda, @starlight-avenue, @kittyandco, @sunnyships, @kaijusships, @rosariesandkisses, @atmospheric-light, @foreveryours-mouse, and @justafictionalthing

And as for a couple people who aren't in the community but still know about/support my ships:

@benjimators , @miniscule-mars, @drearncatcher37 , @zukoukuyo

I'm sure theres more people I haven't added, but

6) When you go to another person’s blog, what is it you like to see the most?

Just that they're enjoying their ship tbh

8) Do you remember the first person you followed, and why?

I don't know who the first person I followed or who followed me was, but I do know that @lunarpanda is probably one of my longest mutals!

9) Fancy giving a special shout-out to your longest follower? Well, do that here :D (Bonus: If you know them, say something about them too)

Oh, oops

See above

10) Share your best selfshipping experience in this community. It doesn’t matter what it is, we want to hear about them all :D

Idk if I have a best experience, but meeting people who ship from the same source or like the same characters is always such an exciting feeling

[spiltcandycoatedpunkblood]

tagged by @levencamthenone (thank you so much, i love these so much!!!)

Rules - tag 11 people that you want to know better and answer the questions. repost, don’t reblog.

Relationship - dating the absolutely lovely @scarfgal398 (long-distance, but i’m in so much love with her that i don’t care - and she knows someday i’ll have what i need to go and visit her)

Colors - god there’s just SO MANY BEAUTIFUL COLOURS; it depends how i feel, but ones i always go for are red, light pink, dark purple (thank a 43 year old animated supervillain for that because i wasn’t such a huge fan of it before him) and blue (can never decide between light or dark blue) - i’d also say gold and silver, but they feel a bit more separate personally because of their sheen

Favorite Ships - lately i’ve got so damn many of them, i don’t know where to start, but my absolute favourites (top 3, i feel - no particular order though) are Starmora (Star-Lord/Peter Quill & Gamora - they deserve so much), Emmetstyle (Emmet & Wyldstyle/Lucy - i love their cute dynamic so much) and Four/Sarah (Fourth Doctor & Sarah-Jane Smith - the level of care and adorableness with these two reaches critical levels all the time, i just cAN’T)

Last Song - i listen to music a lot, and the last one i just listened to is Wonderwall by Oasis (am presently listening to All The Small Things by blink-182)

Last Movie - Detective Pikachu

Last Book - the last one i’ve definitely made a huge effort to read is The Red Place: Transforming Past Traumas through Relationships by Cynthia Anne Hale among others, and this one has been a fantastic help for me lately; i’ve been going through advice and non-fiction books which i think is more my thing (i tend to prefer listening to fiction - i’m a sucker for audiobooks and i find it easier when fiction is concerned)

yee haww i tag @scarfgal398, @lady-sci-fi, @sorry-must-dash, @naughtylupine, @pukethazargutts, @laurie-wildfreegirluwu, @howdy-i-am-a-cowboy, @drearncatcher37, @gaysonlyocean, @i-am-the-wallflower and @themandarinorange

Rant

Its late and I’m tired and stressed from upcoming finals and irritated at myself for other reasons and I just want to get this out even if I’m not a very active (in terms of talking to other bloggers) member of my fandoms because this has been bothering me since like December and I've had enough. 

Seeing all of these wonderfully talented authors and fellow fans delete their blogs or contemplating deleting their blogs makes me very sad, but at the same time, I know that in most they are doing what they believe is best for themselves. I know that there are different reasons why different authors have chosen to delete, but I have noticed a disturbing trend of anon hate and increasing writing demands being a culprit of these losses. And I have some Things to say about that. Especially when it causes writers to feel like something they used to love doing is now a burden (this just breaks my heart)

It makes me both furious and sad to see that there are people who think it is ok to send hateful messages to someone, for whatever reason. To those anons, I am sorry that you have nothing better to do with your time than to try to bring a fellow human being down. I honestly don’t know what goes through your head when you hit that send button with that message filled with negative thoughts, but I am sorry that you lack the ability to express your feelings in a functional and healthy way, or even to be kind at all. Empathy is a tried and true method, and if you could put yourself out of your own selfish bubble long enough to see how you would feel if someone sent such a message to you, well, I hope that you would make a different choice. Whether you truly and wholeheartedly mean what you saw or not, whether or not you think you are in the right, hate is never the answer.

The sheer selfishness that some people exhibit when it comes to communicating with their so-called “favorite authors” is disgusting. If they really are your favorite author then you should have the decency to show some respect and understanding about how difficult it is to have a life and a current writing blog. Authors are not machines. They have setbacks, they have limits, and they have free choice of writing whatever the fuck they want. It’s their blog, and their choice, not yours. They do not exist to serve your every whim. If an author hasn’t updated a series in a while, what you SHOULD do is politely ask them ONCE (1 TIME) if they have a plan on when hey might be working on it again, and whatever answer they give you, accept it as canon. What you SHOULDN’T do is throw a tantrum like a toddler because your aren’t getting what you want or insult the author because they, a fellow human being with other things to do with their time, are not writing fast enough to your standards. How about you try writing a 20 part multific that's around 2K words each and update it regularly while being a full-time student/parent/worker, all the while either going through severe writer’s block or inspiration for writing a different piece altogether. Authors and bloggers alike are not perfect, nor do they claim to be. Cut them some slack and back. Off.

To the authors that have deleted their blogs for these other personal reasons, I first want to say that even though I may not know the details surround your circumstances, I understand the need to put yourself before others in order to be at peace. So in that, I say: “Four for you, Glen Coco.” Huge and amazing props to you for putting your mental/emotional/physical wellbeing over the wants and desires of others. I know that for many of you, it was most likely a very tough decision and a very painful time, but if it ultimately led you to feel peace or more at one with yourself, I applaud you for that. Even if you just transferred to another blog, that is still a great thing considering what may have been going on at the time. Things weren’t going so well, but you decided to start afresh! Go you! Secondly, I want to thank you. Not just for sharing your amazing talent with us, but for sharing YOU with us. You, who brought smiles to so many faces. You, who may have made us squeal inhumanly loud at the fluff, or cry uncontrollably at the angst, or have to take multiple cold showers after reading the smut. Thank you. You didn’t have to, but you did, and that made all the difference. Thank. You. And even if you are no longer writing on here or other places on the internet, I hope that you continue to develop your wonderful talent and share it with kindred spirits. Bless.

If you are contemplating deleting your blog for any of the above reasons or other personal ones, please know that whatever you chose, if it makes you happy in the end, I support your decision. Life is full of constant struggles and we never know if the choices we make are the right ones until after we make them, sometimes long after the fact. I can be a pessimist at times, but I like to think of life as a roller coaster. When you’re feeling down and miserable, I believe that at some point, things will start to look up. Your choices can either speed up or slow down that inevitable incline, but sooner or later, it will happen. Whatever you choose, try to make sure that it will make YOU happy in the long run. I believe in you. And if you ever need someone to talk to, my door is always open, along with my bag of doggo pics to try and brighten your day.
