I’d always been fascinated to the various Outtakes/Blooper Reels of anime and I always asking myself this question, what would the Outtake/Blooper Reel of Kirby Right Back at Ya would look like and I’m not counting the “national anthem” I’m talking about VA’s flubbing their lines (most likely saying swears from time to time), out of pocket things that were not in the script, and some of that stuff. If you’d have some suggestions of what it’ll look like I’m all ears. Plus I was replaying the FMA Brotherhood Outtakes too many times that i remember all the bloopers that were in the reel.
I bet you'd get a lot of that from the original cast! They recorded as a group which meant there's be a lot of ad libbing and interactions that would be a lot of fun.
(My favorite outtake reel of all time is of course from the dub of the original Berserk anime... Don't look that up unless you're an adult XD)

Okay but empowered people have to have, like, their own movies, right? Like even if the studios are pretty indie and whatnot there’s gotta be movies made by empowered people for empowered people don’t you think? I mean, they don’t necessarily need CGI for a lot of special effects especially given Illusory magic can be seen on camera
Like. Gimme Psychokinetic boom mic and camera operators. Air and Water Elementals making real storms instead of using a rain machine. Fire Elementals making safe explosions to look cool walking away from. Earth Elementals temporarily altering a landscape so the actors can run over it easier. Telepaths reminding the actors their lines or blocking in the middle of a take and occasionally messing with them for a good blooper reel. Sonal Energetic score composers. Graviton Energetics making falling/flying stunts safer. Electro Energetics who make the most incredibly cinematic lighting. Fire Contra-Elementals making it possible to use actual snow and ice for filming winter scenes in the middle of summer. Ooh—Dreamwalkers doing pre-visualization presentations maybe?
Gimme empowered romcoms with goofy whacky magic shenanigans keeping the leading couple from confessing their feelings. Gimme a silly, satirical adaptation of Romeo and Juliet where House Capulet are Water Elementals and House Montague are Fire Elementals. Gimme shifters playing the big scary wolves in a movie but their tails give them away as having a great time to any shifter watching (not wagging, shifter actors are too good for that, but there’s a certain twitch other shifters recognize as “I love what I’m doing now!”). Gimme kids cartoons and Sesame Street talking about keeping covert in simple terms and teaching about magic much better than the DUMP videos. Gimme, like, the Nickelodeon and Disney Channel teenager shows about newly manifested adolescents learning about their powers (gimme several comedic-but-informational shows about humanborn teens trying to hide their magic—usually written by humanborn adults with the main character, of course, played by magic-born teenagers. The supporting cast of unempowered teens are also actually magic-born and they have fun pretending to be clueless about magic) that become memes in empowered internet spaces.
Just. Gimme empowered movies and shows. Please.

wut's a trend from the 90s/early 2000s u wanna see make a comeback? :0
Tumblr media
THANK YOU FOR ASKING
For those who don’t know Hi I’m Grave and I am obsessed with 90’s-2012 things and have archives and logs of media, specifically web, of things from those eras
1:Radio shack
As someone who is getting into ham radio and also just misses being able to get funky little add ons to computers and shit, I think we should all as a collective demand a radio shack. “Oh bUt yOu hAvE bEst bUy” I will literally slit your throat if you are dumb enough to think that that ugly wanna be ikea shit is anything remotely similar to big daddy Radio Shack
2:Chatrooms
Was I way too young to be on them back when they were popular? Yes. Did that result into trauma? Yes. But I’ve learned my lesson and now I want this shit back so bad. I LOVE chat rooms. “YeAh wE hAvE dIscOrd aNd DMS” ITS NOT THE SAME FUCKING THING AND YOU KNOW IT.
Bring back chatzy, bring back IRC (I’m active on a few), I’m even on Wireclub if anyone wants to join my chat rooms there!!! And pesterchum
3: physical copies of media
I hate streaming services. I hate it. There is nothing but zombie glossy eyed, let’s market to the brain dead, shit on there. Like yes, I love some of the shows, but we have lost so much shit from moving to streaming services. Remember on a VHS or DVD where you could watch behind the scenes, bloopers, play movie/show related games all on a tape/disk???? It’s the same with any physical music media too. I think it makes you more so focused on what entertainment you actually like. Too many people just like things because it’s popular or trending, which is fine, but when it comes down to it do you actively want to OWN something physical from the media? If not then is it something you’re willing to put time into then? Why not do something else?
4:Arcades
I’m not talking about that Dave and buster shit. I’m talking not scam (at least not as bad as it is now) arcades that was on every Main Street, in every mall, like in a mall now of days is a small as shit arcade if it’s NOT Dave and busters. I hate Dave and busters mainly bc they ruined a genre. It was marketed as a arcade for adults but then they added kid I pad games and now it’s just an awkward overpriced place to be where you can see a seven year old play cross road or angry birds on a glorified I pad and also see grown men get shit faced drunk.
5:MAGAZINES
Literally so hard to find good magazines now of days. Especially for a cost that won’t fucking kill you. I managed to get most of mine second hand, but it’s so hard to find anyplace that sells magazines especially ones that are to kids without being too babyish. I go to a grocery store and if I look for a young girls/boys magazine it’s about very YOUNG things to the point I don’t think the market audience can even read??? That or it’s just guns or gardening. Which is cool, but there isn’t anything for teenagers really anymore. Like yes there are, but you have to sign up online for it which is fine, but I miss being excited to go to the corner store to see if there is any latest addition of the magazine I loved there.
6:social interactions
You would jus stay outside or inside right next to your phone/computer waiting for someone to come by and tell you where everyone else is at. Like having to go walk to every gas station and corner store to see if your friends are there and getting excited when they are actually there. I am thankful for being able to easily like meet up with people, but like the feeling you get when you run into people and then go fuck off is so fun
7:The video games
Video game quality has gone down hill. I’m not talking about highly detailed story based games, no. I’m talking about app games, free to play games, all that shit. It is now a click bait, league clone, or clash clone. And it’s BORING. It’s all ad based and trying to suck as much money from you as possible and it’s all so ugly in that ugly 3D art style.
8:intelligence
*insert the tweet about how if you say you like waffles people will just assume it means you hate pancakes* people today do not have common sense anymore.
9: sense of community
#coquette #grassfromthegardencore #corefromcore
Like yes, back then was also elitist, but not as bad and forced as it is now. So many people today are so focused on aesthetic labels instead of just focusing on what they just like. Like yes, labels are comforting, but to the point you’re desperately asking what aesthetic this is so you can then throw out and change your aesthetic to match it and then repeat over and over? Gross.
10: early web memes
Memes arnt long lasting today as it was back then. There aren’t even memes today. Just a tiktok video that was posted on Twitter. I hate it.

June Approximate Posting Schedule
Hi guys!
I forgot to post my schedule last month, but I think you already know my pace of writing.
Nevertheless, here is a rough scheme of my publications for those who are not familiar with me yet.
Sunday - is Dramione day with my main fic for this ship (which is the first one as well), where I explore in detail their emotions and attraction to each other. Forbidden Potion Ao3 Patreon Wattpad
Monday - the day I usually post drafts for upcoming chapters, scenes and even full-plot-stories exclusively on Patreon.
Tuesday - a day of temporary projects - such as Felinette Akuma Shenanigans (Ao3 Patreon Wattpad), text fics like Only Yesterday (Ao3 Patreon Wattpad) or others like a project for personal growth Felinette Life Lessons (Ao3 Patreon Wattpad).
Wednesday - I post another temporary project, but for Dramione, in which I explored the characters, letting them talk, which turned into a whole fic with 7 texting-chapters and one full-fledged one at the end. Linked will also has graphic form on Wattpad and Instagram (some or all chapters, we'll see) Ao3 Patreon Wattpad
Thursday - remains reserved for your favorite Sexting Time Felinette AU (18+), BUT since the sequel (Time for More) was supposed to be Patreon-only until the very last chapter was released, and I changed my mind about splitting the story into two, this fic will be published bi-weekly so I don't have to deprive readers of it entirely. Ao3 Patreon Wattpad Weekly update on Patreon, 1 chapter in 2 week on Ao3 and Wattpad.
Friday - we stars new Daminette or rather Robinette called Gotham Love Square (I say we, cause my Patreons had already got first 4 chapters of it...) This is a story about how Marinette's life is woven into another love square, with Damibug hating each other because of two different misunderstandings, Daminette and Robibug play along with the other's attitude, while Robinette begin their secret romance... When Adrien arrives in Gotham, AdriCass will also start to develop, so just wait for it!.. Patreon Ao3 (preview)
Saturday - My Naked Baby this is another adult Felinette fic that I am writing to relieve tension while the events of Sexting Time develop in their own speed. Perhaps at the moment this story is more outspoken, and its Felix is not as confident and perfect as the one from Sexting Time, and he is more exuberant too, although who knows, with the latest events of Sexting Time, which you will soon learn... Ao3 Patreon Wattpad
Those are only ongoing fics, but you can also find the finished ones for your taste as well: Patreon  Instagram Ao3  Tumblr  Wattpad
You know that sometimes I post a chapter a day before or after, and sometimes my V.I.P. patreons get several new chapters at once, so the schedule is approximate.
In addition, temporary projects appear suddenly, like my ideas, which are expressed in new drafts, bloopers or whole new fics. So you can expect more surprises that are not yet on the schedule!
Enjoy!

There's a lot I'm missing here I'm sure, but here's my take for the time being, since I just want to share my thoughts.
First of all, I don't know why everyone is so vehemently hating on Jared right now. I don't know if it's a long time coming, if people have always hated him, or if it's a more recent thing. I won't comment much on that, simply because I'm confused here, and if someone is willing to fill me in (not condescendingly, please), then I might end up changing my mind.
First of all, good on Jensen and Danneel for making a SPN prequel if they want to. Personally, I doubt I'll ever watch it, mostly because we already know John and Mary's story (Cupid made them fall in love, they hated each other before that, Mary dies when they're babies, John is kind of a terrible father, etc), and if I want more SPN content, it's to get a better ending for the brothers and for Dean/Cas. Still, happy for Jensen and those looking forward to it.
It seems as though Jared has been basically cut out entirely, not just by Jensen, but the rest of the cast and crew. Someone said it had to do with Jared's pranks and jokes that wasted time and money, and could've hurt or humiliated people. This isn't okay, obviously, if it was this extreme, but from panels and blooper reels, I was under the impression Jensen participated in just as many pranks as Jared? That was kind of their thing, right? Like, they were known for that.
Also, in panels and blooper reels, people laugh along and joke with them, so if no one ever said "that wasn't funny, that went too far, please stop," how were they supposed to know any different? I've had this happen to me, where I think I'm fine with a person, only to find out they dislike me, and I would've rather known from the start than believe they liked me the way I liked them. It feels like a betrayal, and if no one talked to Jared about these things, or if he just plain didn't know, then he's likely feeling the same thing.
I'm sure Jensen has his reasons for not letting Jared in on this, or including him in the show. As a creator and a grown ass man, he's well within his right to do that. As someone who has shared the screen with Jared for fifteen seasons, who had put as much time and energy and love into Dean as Jared has with Sam, as two people who have been through so much together these past 15ish years, that was a shitty thing to do. I'm not hating on Jensen or Danneel, I'm not gonna send them death threats or call them out or treat them like shit (because I'm not a literal child), but from the perspective of coworkers, that just wasn't cool.
People are upset that Jared is responding publicly. Well, he found out publicly. If Jensen didn't want a response from Jared like this, he should've told him privately. As the person introducing the show and the one excluding Jared, it was his job to decide how to present this and handle things, however they'll end up being handled. It's not Jared's fault he found out like the rest of us, and I don't see anything wrong with him being publicly upset about it, because I think he's well within his right to do so.
Do I think say "et tu, brute?" is a bit dramatic? Yes. Am I gonna laugh at him, gaslight him, make him feel like shit for caring? Fuck no. He put as much into this show as Jensen did, and was basically ignored and written out. Again, I don't know what's going on with the two of them, or why they've fallen out. That's their business.
And I love Jensen. I really do. I think he's incredible and creative and really, really good at his damn job. But between he and Jared, I think Jensen is being the bigger child here. Maybe he did speak to Jared on his own at some point, but it really feels like he didn't. Instead of including his coworker in something they both have equal, full rights to be a part of, he never deigned to mention it to Jared, and left him to find out about this like the rest of us, which is not fair. It looks to me like instead of being an adult and confront his issues and be the bigger person, he decided "no, I don't wanna deal with this like an adult, I wanna deal with it like a high school student" and then just full sent it.
And as the creator of this new show, Jensen can do what he wants. He isn't technically obligated to include Jared in a professional capacity. That doesn't mean there were WAY better ways to handle this. I disapprove of how Jensen managed this whole thing, but whatever, really.
I think people's response to this, though, is a product of how our society is now. People are seriously either/or now, but life doesn't always really work in either/or, it works as both/and. Jensen can do what he wants with his own project, Jared can be upset about it, and both of those can exist at the same time and be true. We don't have to pick sides here, we can just acknowledge that both are true, and both Jared and Jensen can be right in some regards, and wrong in others. It's not the end of the world. We're not terrible people for not picking a hill to die on. We're consumers, and (hopefully) people with critical thinking skills capable of discernment. Let's maybe try that approach instead.

Alphonse Elric
LOL I forgot I'd put the ask game in my queue and I just like hell Yeah Alphonse Elric!! Anyway, thank you so much pal! :D this was so much fun!!
Favorite thing about them: his determination despite everything in his life being a disaster! With all the trauma he's gone through at such a young age, he never looses his childlike optimism, spirit, goofiness, and love for others. He always holds on to hope, even when it gets difficult for him to.
Least favorite thing about them: nothing??? He's an angel??? Hmm, but I guess sometimes I get that parental instinct watching the show like "no! You are a child! Stay out of this fight! Let the adults handle it Please don't put yourself in danger for others you're 14!" But then again that's also a real admirable quality sometimes
Favorite line: asdvgbk all I can think of are silly ones but I love the "Oh great, and now my arm's fallen off and my brother's a stupid idiot!" And literally every single bloopers quote "Fuck Yeah!" "I trying to save you asshole!" "What if I pushed you off this roof and broke the arm you just got back?" "He won't. That's the end." I'll get back to you on a legit line of his that I liked LOL 😂
brOTP: well, besides his literal bro, I loved he and Winry's friendship! Childhood friends who could bond over antagonizing Ed, still had a deep love for each other, and ended up family in the end just makes me soft. It was also really sweet seeing how he bonded with those chimeras -- just some grizzled adults touched by a kind and caring child, sticking with him as he travels the world is awesome
OTP: hmm, I wouldn't call it an OTP but I don't mind him and Mei either way! I don't think they're a bad couple and I can't see him ending up with really anyone else, but at the same time there wasn't really enough in the show to warrant any hard-core shipping from me
Random headcanon: I've always wanted to write a fic about it but never had the time -- I love the idea of Roy and Riza finding out he can't sleep, and taking turns staying up all night playing board games and chatting with him. He thinks they're just on night shift or something so he never questions I until much later. Because of that, he really bonds with them and also gets Extremely good at certain games which drives Ed crazy
Unpopular opinion: I guess just going back to I'm not crazy about him and Mei together. Nothing wrong with it, I just never would have seen them together on my own :/
Song I associate with them: Pluto by Sleeping at Last! I associate it with both the Elrics, it's a beautiful song and has a lot of lines that could be interpreted as talking about alchemy/his body situation/their drive to move forward
Favorite picture of them: these three immediately came to mind, as well as any of the goofy armor panels 😂 (I'll see of I can find the post with those because they're wonderful)

Thoughts on Gallavich Hall of Shame
Wow okay this is the latest I’ve ever posted a weekly recap and I feel awful about it but mom life amirite? I’ve seen a lot of negative posts about this episode( maybe I just follow the wrong people) so ngl I’m kinda worried about watching it. Ugh. This is why I try to not look up things until I’ve had a chance to recap because I hate being influenced by other people’s opinions BUT I’m gonna try my best to find the positive things in the episode and keep this light hearted and fun like I’ve been trying to do all season! Okay I’ll shut up now and get right into why you’re really reading this post:
Oh baby Gallavich :(((((
THEY WERE SO LITTLE
Bitch don’t even say the word divorce
They’re sitting side by side playing a game together 😭😭😭😭
Mickey loves blowing ian pass it on
Oh fuck I forgot that belt move ian did 🤤🤤🤤
Nob job lmao
MID GOBBLE
ugh Ned was the most disgusting piece of shit
Who are those two exes wtf
I don’t know their names but I forgot I never watched any episode Mickey wasn’t in lmao
WAIT A WOMAN WHAT THE FUCK
Wow Mickey Milkovich really deserves so much better
Compilation of Mickey saying fuck THANK YOU
Omfg s4 Mickey was actually perfect
“Course you will. That’s your whole fucking MO” oh shit..
Wow remembering the past is really making me hate ian again lmao
Just when I started loving him for once
But then I remember how much he’s grown and I love him again
Fuck the writers tho
Let me write Gallavich please I’d do a much better job
Okay y’all really made it seem like Mickey was super offensive with his bipolar comment
I’m bipolar and hate when people use the term lightly but cmon guys that was nothing
He even called it a bipolar episode. He didn’t say anything offensive at all omfg. I was over here thinking he called him a psycho or something.
Some of y’all just gotta stop watching and stick to fanfics or something.
“I wish I never met you.” “Me either” THEN THEIR FUCKING WEDDING FUCK YALL NOW IM IN MY FEELS 😭😭
They’ve been through so much wow
Okay I need to see Mickey wearing a fanny pack
THE RING AND THE FLASHBACK STOP
GIVE MICKEY AND IAN A BABY
Fuck I need to rewatch the wedding
“Stupid gallagher” same
Mickey giving the Fanny pack back my boy is such a Good Samaritan wow I raised you so well I’m so proud my perfect son
SHIT I JUST REALIZED WHAT SONG IS PLAYING FUCK THIS YALL IM OUT 😭😭😭😭😭
Oh gosh I thought we were done seeing ian Gallagher’s dance moves
Why would they put us through that again
“Stupid Milkovich” you watch your mouth
But we love when a man learns from his mistakes
Now kiss
Mickey is beautiful damn ian is so lucky
Now this is the type of flashback I like to see
MICKEY SAYING HES SENSITIVE DO YALL REALIZE HOW BIG THAT IS?!
Ugh I love him so much
I’m so proud to be his mom
Okay unpopular opinion but I actually love that little how’d your bipolar tirade go how’d your stealing shit go
If you’ve been with someone through their rock bottoms you’ll understand how not offensive at all that interaction was
They both said things they felt bad about saying and now they’re having a bit of banter about it
“We work well together”
GUYES THEYRE ACTUALLY TALKING THINGS OUT THIS IS HUGE
They needed space after feelings got hurt but now they’re coming together to make up and actually talk things over
They’re learning and growing apart AND together
They both had the horrible childhoods and they’re doing their best
It takes years and years of therapy to work through deep rooted issues like that. I’m STILL seeing a therapist twice a week and I still have issues.
Just imagine. They’re how old? Mid to late twenties and neither of them have properly dealt with their issues and mental health problems. You can’t expect them to be the perfect couple you read about in fanfics. Yeah shameless is over the top but it’s a tv show that has stayed on the air for 11 seasons BECAUSE of how over the top it is. Stop expecting these characters to be healed healthy woke changed characters from one season to the next when they haven’t even properly dealt with their issues and it would honestly be very ooc if they did deal with their issues in a healthy way
I wish they would but that’s not the shameless way.
Well that was a long rant but honestly it was needed
Ugh I hate reliving terry this is the worst my heart is breaking
I skipped fast
Terry is definitely worse but yeah they’re both pieces of shit
Shit I forgot how abusive frank was
They both deserve so much better
They’re so cute oh gosh
We love communication
Okay but fr taking a bath with your SO isn’t as romantic as people think or maybe I’m just not a romantic lmao
Unless it’s a big bathtub with leg room
Mickey has the best lines
He’s so funny 😭😭😭
Mickey loves being manhandled✨✨✨✨
Honestly? I really think they would be really into some safe consensual bdsm play and they deserve to have that
PICK HIM UP IAN PLEASE ITS WHAT HE WANTS
fucking love you
I love you too
MUTUAL I LOVE YOUS ARE MY FAVORITE THING
IAN LOVES TO DO THE THUMB THING I CANT
HE DID IT EIGHT TIMES IN THREE SECONDS I COUNTED
they’re so perfect for each other :(((
A kissing compilation 😭😭
THE S7 VAN KISS HAS MY HEART
I still want a scene of Mickey making fun of Ian’s black hair
THE WEDDING 😭😭😭
I’m in tears again
THE KEY CHANGE WITH IAN SAYS MICKEY STILL GETS ME 😭😭😭😭
“Now?” HOW DOES ONE WORD GET SUCH A BIG REACTION FROM ME
I deserved to be at that wedding 😭😭😭
“But not these newlyweds” damn right
THE BLOOPERS
I love them so much
I LOVE SEEING NOEL AND CAM AT WORK
What a treat
SWEET LOVING MOUTH
THE THUMB THING AGAIN
JUST FOR ME
I MISS SEASONN FOUR MICKEY I WANNA GO WATCH HIM NOW
I love Mickey more than anything 😭😭
Okay that was so much better than I was expecting! I know I ranted a lot and I’m probably gonna get some angry comments and messages but I honestly don’t care. Have your opinion and I’ll have my own and if you wanna discuss things like adults I’ll reply but if not then I don’t have time for the negativity. My boys actually communicated and didn’t self sabotage for once and I’m so proud. I love not being as invested as I used to be because now I can actually enjoy their scenes! Anyway it’s late where I’m at and I haven’t been getting much sleep so I’m gonna stop rambling. Let me know what you thought of this episode! Oh and real quick! I noticed I got a flood of new followers in the past two weeks so i just wanted to say feel free to send me messages on and off anon! I like talking to y’all! I promise I’m nice lol! Okay bye I love Mickey so much!

Random E! Thoughts: S4E10 - Camera Bug
insert quiet wheezing here while Guardy tries to get their shit together enough to write this post without cracking up constantly.
I love how Johnny just starts trying to convince Roy to pose for more pictures after that first candid shot of Roy getting dressed, and Roy doesn’t even bother asking before just going along with it.
Johnny just bouncing over to the rec room after the second time he leaves the locker room, all excited and full of enthusiasm and oh god he’s adorable
Johnny having to manually do the math to find his camera settings. Also, Johnny apparently being able to manually do the math to find his camera settings (more or less)
The crew pretending to have fallen asleep at the table
Johnny’s so sincere about the whole thing with his “I’ll be a little faster next time, just help me get this one alright”
He still gets his snapshot when the tones go off
Okay, so I’m not going to say too much about the Black kid because I’m not even American, I don’t know shit but two things that did stand out is A) Including both Morton AND Vince here seems like a very deliberate choice, which is interesting, B) Good representation? No damn idea, but it’s still interesting that they bothered touching on social issues at all, with a role model as a counter example and all. As per usual, if somebody with more of a clue wants to add stuff, by all means, feel free.  
The fireman suffering from Too Much Hot Chili is a really fun look at another station. We don’t get THAT too much. 
I also love how Roy tastes the chili and is a bit shocked but fine, and then we have Johnny, complaining for ages.
That scene with Johnny and Roy in the engine bay, though
Johnny balancing between the vehicles, being about 195% leg somehow
startling Roy while getting down from there and giggling before apologizing. I’ve said it before but Johnny giggling is so stupidly endearing I don’t even.
launching straight into more photography stuff, with such a kind of innocent, single-minded focus, and Roy going along with it without (much) question
Less innocently: “that was a good one, too” - Yeah, an excellent shot of Roy’s butt is what THAT’s gonna be, Johnny. 
Relatedly: Johnny finding the ONE engine-related thing involving an object that’s longer than it’s wide
Yes, Roy, you gotta look Really Intently at this Dripping Rod, lol
yup I’m really good at being a very mature adult why do you ask
Johnny fitting into his own locker somehow is genuinely impressive, as is the fluid way he pours out of it again. 
Dix and Brackett really should know better than to talk about having a peaceful, quiet lunch. Prime way to jinx it. That said, Dix being Grumpy and having an awful day is handled pretty well - they never question if her foul mood is valid or not.
Johnny’s at it again with the double entendre in the next engine bay scene.
Yes, Marco, really rub that knob. Harder. Who the hell greenlit ANY of this episode. 
The intently focused way Johnny tries to get a picture of Chet in front of that map; Johnny sitting on the squad and later on tiptoes trying to get the best angle
“What’s the matter, Cap?” “Ya blinded me, ya twit, that’s what’s the matter” 
Also, his mumbled little “sorry, sir”
This is not the last time “Cap” suddenly becomes “Sir” when Johnny does his little “oddly scared of Cap” thing. 
Also: Cap snaps at Johnny, and what’s his first reaction? He goes to stand next to Roy. There was no real reason to, but he did it anyway. 
Close enough to hit him with the camera, no less. That one was a blooper that stayed in by the way, iirc
Yknow, I kinda wish they’d given Johnny his victory instead of Chet one-upping him, especially since Johnny's photography obsession is not a new thing - that's come up before, so having him succeed here would've made sense. Poor boy was so proud, too

My boss was abusive and didn't care about staff so I cost him his store and his contracts
This story will include no real names and a location will not be given. I am obligated to inform you I wrote this on mobile and have no idea how long this will be.
Backstory: I was an idiot growing up and ended up in a rehabilitation program for people under 18 to avoid jail time and eventually got given a place at a large charity agency that sources workers for anything from retail to gardening. The person directly in control of my position at said charity was one of those "I'm too nice for anyone to notice me doing wrong" people and he put me, someone who literally couldn't (and still can't years later) talk to a stranger without panicking, into a job in retail speaking to upwards of 35+ customers a day. May not sound like a lot but I struggled to make it through a day without going into the back room and crying.
Story: So, I get assigned to work in a (unsure of the right word here but, privately owned?) retail place that sells "upcycled" furniture. I had previously worked at the site actually doing the upcycling and knew this stuff was a scam, barely had a thing changed and the people doing the work spent most of the day drinking coffee and smoking while playing games on their phone.
The boss of this site (Kevin) showed just what kind of person he was from day 1 by threatening to fire me for telling him I can't handle strangers and shouting in my face. God I wish he had fired me. This never got better and over the months of working there and I eventually started started recording it all without his knowledge. Among the things he did is this list:
Shouting at staff for not putting toilet paper on the holder (there was a pile of it on the back of the toilet)
Calling the person in charge of my placement and reporting me for "lack of workplace enthusiasm" in front of me while I was having a panic attack
Telling a 70+ year old woman who I worked with that she needs to "grow up and handle confrontation like a man" after having 2 large men shout and swear at her for refusing to sell an already sold item to them
Throwing his phone (told by another employee) after I called in sick for a day due to crippling stomach pains brought on by Crohns
After being told at 11am that I won't make it to my shift (due to being in hospital), proceeded to call me at 3am the next morning and yell at me (he seemed VERY drunk) demanding I have a doctor prove I was in the hospital because I didnt give 2 weeks notice
And back to the story. All of this was recorded in the space of only 3 weeks and I gave it all to my placement manager who proceeded to organise a meeting between himself, Kevin and me to try and put things right. During this meeting however, instead of calmly talking about the issue and what can be done to solve it, all the evidence was shown to Kevin who then yelled at me for recording him then throwing a full on tantrum that I would dare question his style of management while I sat there scared as hell and my placement manager just did nothing.
Back we go to work with a final warning strike issued to me for gross misconduct and told that I should do as stated in my contract and anything else that is asked of me or I would be fired. I do everything I can to follow my contract and anything else asked of me including cleaning a f**king toilet and see a broken window above it. Thats when I finally get a plan together.
The revenge: The plan I came up with meant I had to stay in everyones good books, deal with a-hole customers, go to work even in crippling pain and dose up on meds to control my panicking but in exchange my belief was I could get Kevin replaced or atleast get myself removed from the situation.
I should have clarified earlier, being fired from any site ALSO gets you taken off the charities payroll.
I started informing Kevin of every little safety violation the site managed to break from broken windows in the female toilets, loose light fixtures and broken locks on doors all the way up to a giant glass panel going across the front of the shop that was barely hanging in by a few bits of rubber and could easily kill a small child or less than strong adult if it were to fall out. I emailed him and texted him about each one individually and brought it up to other staff in hopes they would do the same, while also making sure to take photos of each of these issues so I could use them again later.
Another month and a half of working there and at this point I felt I may have a little too many minor details saved up but decided its best to go overkill than underkill and sent a huge email to the UK HSE (health and safety executive) detailing every risk and danger with photos attached to show what the place was doing wrong and requesting an inspection. Of course they obligued.
1 week later I get a phone call from Kevin. He tells me how the shop is closing down, how a safety inspection was carried out and how it had been failed so badly that he lost his contract with the charity and that nobody would be able to use the building for weeks while everything gets brought back up to code, but he couldn't run the place anymore due to money issues while it was closed because he had no savings for this. I never heard from him again.
A year later: After this happened I moved on and began working from home doing image editing for quick cash and around a year later I get a call from the placement manager who hadnt heard from me the whole time and I got asked in the coldest, most passive aggressive tone "why didnt you tell me the store closed?" turns out they had been apparently paying me £300 a DAY for a job I didnt have, hours I didnt work and this was all apparently being reported on the charities income as someone elses account. They got me confused with another person and reporting their hard work on my files and it took them a year to notice because of how badly they handled everything.
Another obligatory note: Rslash, if you are reading this; On behalf of every single subscriber, MORE PUPPY BLOOPERS PLEASE!
*: clearing the confusion- they had my name on another persons paperwork and though they paid the right person, they were using my name

Inside Jokes and References in the Full Bios
Tumblr media
Mainly for @spacelizardtrashboys and @kuruumiya
Also: Any time strikethrough text is used it's because it's meant to be secret information, for example on the small bios any time 'Lucifarian' truly isn't their last name their is strikethrough test after saying that it's not their real name. This is to say that no matter what is written or if it's strikethrough text or not, it is there for a reason.
Damien - Bio In-Jokes and References:
The Quote for him refers back to his 'King of Hell' gimmick, as does his middle name, Rex means king.
He's protective, like a dad, but also way too overprotective over the gimmicks for the girls. He's an old, old school guy so he enjoys card games with the boys.
He's supposed to sound like a young Hugh Laurie, mainly because if I heard a young Hugh Laurie say Damien's bio quote I wouldn't be able to take him seriously.
His main finisher (Seventh Circle) refers back to (a) him being the king of hell and (b) the seventh circle is for violence, and well, he's a wrestler, that's a pretty violent job.
He calls fans both 'peasants' and his 'loyal subjects' because he's like an asshole-ish king who'd quickly be dethroned if they rebelled.
Vickie - Bio In-Jokes and References:
The Quote for her refers back to her gimmick along with the old saying 'pride comes before the fall'.
She's called 'Victoria' because of both (a) it meaning victory and (b) the fact that Queen Victoria ruled back when Britain had an empire, then the empire fell (as in pride [Vickie] before a fall)
Both Her and Damien are born in August and are the only two to share a birth month as they are Father and Daughter (non-kayfabe, as in they share DNA)
She's raised Christian as back when she was growing up England was a lot more Christian than when she became an adult so she got lax in her beliefs
Her personality is supposed to make her come across as a vain, rich, arse of a person, yet deep down she's still redeemable, she's got a long way to go before she actually redeems herself though
She's the type of person who makes sure EVERY little detail of her matches and promos are PERFECT to the point that she will control what other people do or say, down to the moment it's said/done and the way it's said/done
She only likes the other D.O.D (Daughters of Darkness) members because she has only made enemies in the short while they've been in the company, she especially dislikes George 'The Animal' Steele because of his very messy style going against her 'everything should be perfect' views
She's the leader, the brain and the mouth because of her control over the group, if she let them have more control, there might be less arguments about her amount of control
Her named moves are also references to both her gimmick and other things. Beheader is named because of the Tudor monarchs of England having kind of a thing for killing people in this way (ex. Henry VIII).
Lineage Ender is named that because if she ever botches that one specific move (it'll make sense in context/ she does it during a training scene) it could end either her own Lineage or the person she's doing it to.
Lion's den is called that because she traps them in a near-inescapable crucifix pin, and normally if someone goes into a den of Lions, they aren't escaping in one piece.
Family Pride is named that because not only is her gimmick the sin of pride, but she's got pride in her family and she's her dad's 'pride and joy' because she's his only child.
Wish for this (her main finishing move) is called that because it's an inside joke of "you're gonna 'wish for this' to be over soon"
As she's Damien's blood daughter, a 'prodigal son' joke seemed somewhat appropriate.
Billie - Bio In-Jokes and References:
Her quote is a reference to the Guerreros and the whole 'Latin lover' trope
She was born in February because of Valentine's day, hence why her birthday is two days before the 14th
She's 1/2 Cuban (just in general - both Mexican and Cuban culture is interesting to me) But she's 1/2 Cuban in case I ever need to write for Razor Ramon, I can get away with making the joke of 'my Cuban accent's better than yours'.
Her casual style is 'Suggestive' because how else is Lust supposed to dress.
She dislikes Hulk Hogan because she finds him incredibly annoying and she dislikes Jesse Ventura because she dislikes his fashion choices.
I imagine her uncle Hugo looks like Luis Guzman and her dad's like Raul Julia. Try to imagine those two wrestling as a luchador tag team.
Her mother was basically a valet to her dad, which was usually Billie's role before she was part of the D.O.D.
Her move name references are all song references: Love me Tender - Elvis' song of the same name, Personal Aphrodite - a reference to / joke on 'Personal Jesus', Sexual Healing - Marvin Gaye's song of the same name.
Also, I hope to eventually use the joke 'The Babe, the babe with the power,' 'What power?' 'Power of voodoo' 'Who do?' 'You do' 'Do what?' 'Remind me of the babe' because of one of her commentary nicknames being 'The Babe'
P.G - Bio In-Jokes and References:
Her quote is in reference to her being greed and (right at the start of the story) her thoughts on money actually being able to buy her happiness
her surname 'Voronin' means crow, and well, crows like shiny things, like money
she wears 'fancy but simple' clothing because if she bought designer clothes she'd be in debt, but she still wants to look like she has more money than everyone else
she's cowardly in a Jimmy Hart way, she'll piss someone off during a promo and run away once she feels like she's in danger
she's a showman because she's more show than work, meaning she works exceptionally quick matches.
Her moves are basically jokes on the fact that she is greed, such as Gold-digger and Diamond Ring. However, Money Maker is also a joke on the fact that it's a facebuster and usually an actor's face is called their 'money maker'
She hates Hulk Hogan and Sgt slaughter because of how patriotic they are
Kirby - Bio In-Jokes and References:
Her quote is a reference to (a) the fact that she's Gluttony, (b) her being the only one who wears a mask constantly and (c) her basically being the group's scare tactic against people who think they can push them around.
I am planning on eventually making her a part of the machines, maybe as a valet, maybe as a wrestler, not 100% sure as of right now
Her mother is the Norwegian-Scottish one and her father is the Irish-Welsh one
She is the tallest (not the heaviest, that's Damien) but she's still 9 inches shorter than André.
She's willing to bleed hardway, but hates blading
She hates Big John Studd because of his disrespect, she hates Hulk Hogan because she thinks he's obnoxiously 'American', she dislikes Lord Alfred Hayes and Dynamite Kid because they are so insistent on calling her '1/4 Icelandic' whenever she talks about being 1/4 Norwegian. She hates Brutus Beefcake because he's just 'so, so much' energy-wise.
She's always been tall, always shorter than André though, she was 5'6" when she was 12, which is still taller than Sam, P.G and Eli.
Kirby's the best at using folk tales and mythology references in her promos and still keeping them dark and scary.
Her speaking voice is Jessica Hynes, but I imagine her singing voice (which will be important later) to be that of Deee-lite's Lady Miss Kier. On that note, I will be putting up a post on this part of the fic's canon.
Feeding Frenzy is meant to look similar to Roddy's wild punches, hence the 'frenzy' part of the name.
Organ grinder is named because it's meant to look really hard (like she's putting all her force and weight into it) as if she's grinding her opponents organs
Hungry for Blood is an in-joke of during her toughest matches she seems hungry to give the fans the sight of blood
Consummation is a joke of 'the match will soon be over, the match will soon be concluded, or consummated' not the sex-based meaning of that word.
Number of the beast, which is 666, is a reference to the 619, and is a modified 619 basically.
Vampire's Bite is a reference to her sitout jawbreaker looking like she could possibly bite someone's neck, like a vampire, as she performs the move
I didn't want to call her chops, chops, so I made a joke of 'oh it's chopping, like a butcher's knife'
Overfeeding is another basic gluttony reference. Cheshire Grin is a facelock-based joke. Let Them Eat Cake is a butt=cake joke
The ogress is a thinly-veiled way of the commentary team calling her ugly, because why else would she be the only one in a mask
Holly - Bio In-Jokes and References:
Her quote is written that way because I always wanted her to sound like she comes from New Jersey
She's very cuddly towards the rest of the D.O.D and thus gets called a teddy bear by the others
She's Pansexual because she doesn't care what your gender is, she loves people just being themselves
She's the only ginger because I've never seen a ginger wrestler from New Jersey
She was raised Catholic but lost her faith upon realising how bad gay people are treated by the church (Holly literally just goes "Y'all it is 1984, how are y'all gonna reject people based on who they love?")
Holly's very much the person who'll ask permission to cut a promo on someone but won't tell them how harsh she's going to be
She's the group's mom friend (mum friend?)
Before she started travelling with another member of the group (Holly travels with Sam a lot) she would accidentally no-show events
She does accidentally give incredibly stiff shots
Holly likes Gorilla Monsoon because their friendship is very much a weird pseudo-dad-daughter friendship, so basically, she's using him as her new dad
Her voice is Angie Harmon because I think Harmon sounds like a badass from New Jersey
Naptime, Dirt Nap and Lullaby are jokes of 'I'm gonna knock you out'
Eli - Bio In-Jokes and References:
Her quote is a joke of 'this is why she doesn't do a lot of promos'
She's the most likely to be on one of those 'too hot for TV' blooper reels from her promos
Both she and Sam hate people taller than them
Sam - Bio In-Jokes and References:
Her quote is a reference to the fact that her tattoos are her 'masterpiece'
she dresses athletically because she's always ready for a fight, especially because she's usually the one picking fights
She likes Lou because he's like a crazy uncle to her and she likes George Steele because, unlike Vickie, she likes the wild man side of his gimmick
She's voiced by Melissa Etheridge because she's still feminine but is the most masculine sounding

Tumblr media
I know it’s not a unique story: Young teenager who, up until that point, hadn’t really thought of music -- simply taking in whatever MTV happened to play or whatever 92.3 KROQ felt like playing -- puts on a new album. And, like in a movie when a character takes their first tab of LSD or a rip off a jazz cigarette (The horror of horrors), all of a sudden it hits. The eyes grow wide, the hair stands on end, long-dormant parts of the brain light up. 
That’s what happened when I first heard The Strokes. Sure, I had dabbled in some punk music and had explored some of the bands from the ‘60s and ‘70s like the Velvet Underground, but I had never heard a contemporary band that told me there was something else out there. The Strokes’ “Is This It?” grabbed me by the shoulders and screamed to me, “There’s an entire world out there that you don’t know anything about.” 
From there, I fell in love. I devoured albums. I bought import magazines at the now-shuttered bookstore in my suburban town. I started bands and wrote record reviews for my high school newspaper. The Strokes quite simply changed my life. To this day, when I walk the streets of New York and I put on a Strokes album, it feels different. I feel different. 
All of this is to say -- if you were wondering why a baseball blog was spending so much time talking about high school like this was some kind of coming of age tale -- that the Strokes released a baseball robot music video for “The Adults are Talking.”
Tumblr media
They also wrote a song called “Ode to the Mets” on their newest record. And that’s why I got to speak with lead singer Julian Casablancas for a half hour about the video, his love of vintage sports gear, and how the Mets broke his heart. It was a dream come true for me to speak with him -- even if I wasn’t able to send him any demos.  
Here’s the link to check it out: The Mets broke Julian Casablancas��� heart. And thanks to Tom Forget for making the amazing baseball card you see at the top of the post. 
Here’s a few other things from me you may have missed recently: 
The 10 best bloopers of the year. You have to see the amazing ‘90s VHS-style video that was made to go along with the post. I’ve never loved anything so much. 
The 11 funniest moments from Tommy Lasorda’s career. Lasorda was a complicated man and he certainly wasn’t perfect, but he was a beloved figure. His players loved him. Los Angeles will probably give him a statue. So, in honor of his long career, we picked some of his most hilarious -- like the time he got a mascot ejected from a ballgame. 
Tumblr media
The history of the bullpen phone. This is a bit older, but with the baseball world quiet it got resurfaced. So, if you missed it before, here’s your chance again! 
When the Mets acquired Francisco Lindor and Carlos Carrasco from Cleveland, it was just the latest in a long line of bizarre trades. Matt Monagan and I took a look at some of the best -- including Harry Chiti being traded for himself.

OSRR: 2560
after i wrote my post last night, i did not get to go back to bed. joel had sprawled all over the entire goddamn bed, and no matter how much i tried, he would not budge. frustrated to tears because of the driving and the exhaustion, i took blooper and a pillow and snatched the thin top blanket off the bed and curled on the floor, desperate to be comfortable and get some rest.
it didn't come.
around 6am, about three hours after i plopped myself on the floor, joel woke up and rolled over the edge of the bed, looking for me. he asked if he pushed me off. i said yes. he moved. i could've cried from how grateful i was.
but then my shoulder and back hurt so i couldn't get to sleep for a while anyway because i couldn't get comfortable. so i got about two hours of sleep.
because at 9:12am, lisa called joel and told him that she and john were going to breakfast. so i got up, threw on my bra and leggings, realized the other reason i couldn't sleep last night was because it was too fucking hot and turned the AC temp down, and headed out to breakfast that the hotel had. it was good.
the wedding was okay. the ceremony was sweet, but the chairs were packed together too tightly to be comfortable, and it was too quiet for so many guests.
and then i spent the reception trying to figure out why i was unhappy with it. it was legend of zelda-themed, or it was supposed to be. but there were no decorations in the tent. no character. the centerpieces were hard with little balls hanging inside like navi, but they were poorly constructed. there were three banners up. one strand of poorly-spaced decorations behind the head table. and three paper triforces hanging, one from each pole in the tent. yes, this tent was 40x80. there were probably 200 people in attendance. this reception was a huge fucking ordeal, and probably cost fifteen thousand dollars, and they still didn't put in the money for the small details. i was upset. if i'd had that budget and if i'd been the one to plan their wedding, it would be lively and have so much character and it would've been what a big legend of zelda-themed wedding should've looked like. i was salty the whole time. but at least i got to sit with joel and renee.
we sat in the only part of the tent that didn't have ventilation of some sort. it was 88° today. that sucked. the rolls were good. the cash bar was good. the food was alright. the cupcakes were weird flavors. the best thing i ate, besides the stack of eggs and the stack of waffles from breakfast this morning, was the fried i kidnapped off of the chicken tenders plate we got for joel. the potatoes on the "adult" plates were decent, but the green beans were a little undercooked and cold, and the marinade on the beef tasted funky, along with it being undercooked.
so i kinda milked the time i was there for everything i could. i have a condiment cup to prove it.
me, joel, and renee ended up leaving early-ish. we came back and just chilled out, and the two of them went to play d&d with john and i stayed here in the room to try and work on my paper. that didn't really go so well. so i ended up going and sitting in on the small session they had going on. it was fun to listen.
came back, picked some stuff, and now i'm in bed, ready to catch up on the sleep i didn't get last night.
and then i got to briefly talk to FF before i logged off of discord, and wish them a good day because they have a dog show to be in today. they're sweet.
i'm still self-conscious as fuck, but today it was a little better.
