Grand Finale time! Just three bakes remain before either Natasha, Valentino or Mikaela is crowned the winner of the Great Simlish Bake Off 2023.

"Congratulations bakers! It's your last day in the tent and we'd like you to produce three more amazing bakes. Yes, I'm afraid there's still some spoiled batter hanging around somewhere that we can't track down. And it's the middle of a heatwave. But the producers hope none of you passes out from heat exhaustion before you finish."

"First up we'd like you to make a pie. No soggy bottoms please! So for one last time: on your marks, get set..."

Saw is just like Succession in the fact that it's a toxic family dynamic. Where Succession has Logan as the father with Kendall, Roman, and Shiv as his top 3 that he juggles between choosing who will succeed him after his death, Saw has John as the father figure and his kids are Mark, Lawrence, and Amanda. Like Logan he juggles between the three of them, preparing each one to be his successor, playing them off each other, keeping secrets between them and from them.

One of my biggest pet peeves is this trend where people would put a caption like "The feminism leaving my body when....." and the video would be a thirstrap or even just a really good fancam of their favourite artists.

I'm sorry but since when is being attracted to a person (mostly a man) seen as a lack of feminism? The only possible explanation is that the op doesn't really understand the phrase and that's even more annoying because you could have just complemented your favourite artists and honestly that's the only correct way to support your favourites.

*Hades hours before kidnapping Persephone* Hades: I don't wanna live in the Underworld like this anymore, makes me feel miserable. Mynthe: We're here... But we're happy right? We have to keep trying. Hades: Whatever. Aniway the views are better above ground. Mynthe: So your going to kidnap Demeter's daughter just because your unhappy about the way you rule? Hades: Mynthe. I'm not getting younger, my father by this time was already locked up, and my brothers rule all, I just look at the death. I'm going to do something about it. They have to give me respect, maybe this will show them I'm someone.

No cause we were absolutely ROBBED of a scene where Steve finds Dustin clinging to Eddie and has to comfort him AND his reaction to Max. He would’ve 1000% been at the hospital as soon as he heard. He would’ve sat there with Lucas because those are HIS KIDS. 

We. Were. ROBBED.

Favorite Transformers AU?

Oooooo okay- this is a very good one

I think right now, my Humanformers au. It’s a Scav revolved story right now, but I just want them to have normal people drama.

Plus, I can make characters actual ill and disabled without there being any fix for it. Humans aren’t robots and can’t have parts fixed, ya know? At least not in the same way

Anyway- Humanformers Fulcrum is diabetic and doesn’t tell anyone. He keeps a minifridge in his room for insulin and throws the needles away when no one else is home.

brain fluff rot. cause red hair sulky baby cheol is on my brain.

you were working at home because its a saturday. so while you and cheol is at home. he decided to be clingy while you do your project at your computer. he would pout tho when you stop petting his hair. (so beware!)

- 🖼️

i love your brain so much, how do you always come up with the fluffiest and cutest ideas ever 🫠

okay, so finally the day has come - you and cheol are both at home, at the same time, together. he has a day off, doesn't need to worry about anything (except for if he should get up at 4 or 5 pm or maybe stay in bed for the whole day), and he has a whole day for you and kkuma with no schedules.

except you decide to be a responsible adult and do some work which is so??? hello, he's right there, half naked in bed, all warm, bulky and cuddly, and you still prefer to work on your project instead of cuddle him in your bed. this is unacceptable, and cheol does not tolerate this behaviour.

you don't have to be looking at him to know he's pouting, with his lower lip jutted out adorably (do i have to mention his big sparkly eyes, begging you to come back to bed?). and oh my god, why are you so stubborn? he's been looking at you like that for the past hour and you still don't pay him even an ounce of attention. and choi seungcheol, general leader of seventeen, age 29 needs attention. a lot of attention.

at this point his hands are itching to touch you, like he's practically screaming "PLEASE HOLD MY HAND, BABY". eventually, he somehow succeeded in persuading you to come to bed with your laptop, mumbling something about it being more comfortable than your chair (even though he himself bought that chair, the most expensive one, to make sure it would be very very very comfortable and good for your back).

the second he covers you with the blanket his head is on your chest, and arms are tightly wrapped around you (he won't let you get away for the next couple of hours) (the rest of the day probably), and as a cherry on top he places your hand on his head clearly signalising he wants his head pats.

and you do just that, a bit amused with you boyfriends neediness. nonetheless, you keep patting his head, and running your fingers through his red hair strands that have already began fading, and stroking his cheek, and running your thumb over his hand that is resting on your tummy. all that to make up for the audacity to leave him alone in bed.

dare to stop petting his hair, though, and you're met with a very very whiny choi seungcheol, who starts talking in pout how you have betrayed him, and that you don't love him anymore.

this man just wants to be babied, i don't care if he's a hard dom or whatever - CHOI SEUNGCHEOL IS A SULKY BABY.

EXHIBITS OF POUTY RED HAIRED CHEOLLIE:

reminder that the only reason the "ADHD is actually demigod BATTLE STRATEGIES" and "dyslexia is DEMIGOD BRAINS HARDWIRED FOR ANCIENT GREEK" things exist in the PJO universe is because it's a very direct reference to early 2000s teaching/parenting techniques for neurodiverse and disabled children, which aimed to frame childrens' disabilities and hardships as a "superpower" or strength so that the children would feel more positively about their disabilities or situations. This technique has fallen out of favor since then for the most part since more often than not it just results in kids feeling as though their struggles are not being seen or taken seriously.

Yes, demigods are adhd/dyslexic (and sometimes autistic-coded) in the series. This is extremely important and trying to remove it or not acknowledge it makes the entire series fall apart because it is such a core concept. Yes, canon claims that their adhd/dyslexia is tied to some innate abilities, which is based on an outdated methodology. It's important to acknowledge that and understand where it comes from! But please stop trying to apply it to other pantheons in the series like "oh, the romans have dyscalculia because of roman numerals!" or "the norse demigods have dysgraphia for reasons!" - it's distasteful at best.

A better option is to acknowledge the meta inspiration for why that exists in the series, such as explaining potentially that Chiron was utilizing that same teaching methodology to try and help demigods feel more comfortable with their disabilities and they aren't literal powers. In fact, especially given Frank, there's implication that being adhd/dyslexic isn't a guaranteed demigod trait, which means it's more likely to be normally inherited from their godly parent/divine ancestor as a general trait, not a power, and further supports the whole "ADHD is battle strategy" thing being non-literal. It also implies the entire greco-roman pantheon in their universe is canonically adhd/dyslexic - and that actually fits very well with the themes of the first series. The entire central conflict of the first series fits perfectly as an allegory about neurodiverse/disabled children and their relationships with their undiagnosed neurodiverse/disabled parents and trying to find solutions together with their shared disability/disabilities that the kid inherited instead of becoming distant from each other (and this makes claiming equivalent to getting a diagnosis which is a fascinating allegory! not to mention the symbolism of demigods inheriting legacies and legends and powers from their parents and everything that comes with that being equivalent to inheriting traits, neurodiversity, and disabilities from your parents).

anyways neurodiversity and disability and the contexts in which the series utilizes representation of those experiences particularly during the 2000s symbolically within the narrative is incredibly important to the first series and the understanding of what themes it means to represent. also if i see one more "the romans have dyscalculia instead of dyslexia" post in 2023 i'm gonna walk into the ocean.

i really like how unhinged they made jeong su-min in marry my husband. it goes beyond the classic "villain of the story" role.

it adds a lot of depth to her character, because her motivations are difficult to fathom, and the way she reacts to rejection/failure is fascinating. it's that contradiction between not being able to exist without ji-won (she follows her anywhere, like a shadow), and at the same time, trying to dim her light to extinction (which she ends up doing, when ji-won dies in the original timeline.)

honestly, hard to pull off, but the actress is killing it. she plays it like su-min is clinically unwell. if she could swallow ji-won whole to make sure she'll stay hers/stay with her forever, she 100% would.
