eddie has a new client. he doesnt know who it is. all he knows is there was a note in his locker saying "meet me at the bench -a new client" the handwritings shaky, like the writer had been hesitant. needless to say, hes curious.
steves fucking stressed. hes popular now, cool, nice, except jesus fucking christ he hates it. hes mean to people now, hes meant to not like anyone who isnt popular. hes meant to laugh at people now not with them. hes been trying his best to get some relief but nothing hes tried has worked. so, he tries a last resort; drugs.
The mv feels lonely despite losing deceptively warm because it represents seokjin the alien whom no one notice except little girl - army and the truck - bts
My brain further supplied he's sitting on the back of the truck bcuz he feels he's riding of the success of bts
Also like he says he only his family, members and army and everyone from the start must have thought either they weren't worth the attention with whole underdog thing and now are just intimidated by his success..
Also him looking at that astronauts suit is him self reflecting
And the last part him perking up when he heard the bell of the cycle 🚲
Dior Capture Totale Essence - I’ve been using this for 3 years now. She’s a skincare staple for me. I do of course have other toners and essences that I incorporate in my routine but I will always keep a bottle of this on hand.
Topicals’ Like Butter 🧈 - a great product for dry skin days. I also love this when I’m feeling lazy and only want to cleanse and moisturize. I know my skin will be hydrated and protected even though I’m skipping a few steps.
SkinFix’s Barrier+ - I think I love this product? 😭. I’m honestly not sure. It definitely works. My skin feels hydrated and looks soft and dewy. A little goes a long way. For real this time. I know everyone says that but you really don’t need a lot unless you like a greased up look. I think the finish is what bothers me. It’s a very dewy finish so if you love that, you’ll love this! I have to decide if I will repurchase. They also have a gel formula so I might try that.
probably time for this story i guess but when i was a kid there was a summer that my brother was really into making smoothies and milkshakes. part of this was that we didn't have AC and couldn't afford to run fans all day so it was kind of important to get good at making Cool Down Concoctions.
we also had a patch of mint, and he had two impressionable little sisters who had the attitude of "fuck it, might as well."
at one point, for fun, this 16 year old boy with a dream in his eye and scientific fervor in heart just wanted to see how far one could push the idea of "vanilla mint smoothie". how much vanilla extract and how much mint can go into a blender before it truly is inedible.
the answer is 3 cups of vanilla extract, 1/2 cup milk alternative, and about 50 sprigs (not leaves, whole spring) of mint. add ice and the courage of a child. idk, it was summer and we were bored.
the word i would use to describe the feeling of drinking it would maybe be "violent" or perhaps, like. "triangular." my nose felt pristine. inhaling following the first sip was like trying to sculpt a new face. i was ensconced in a mesh of horror. it was something beyond taste. for years after, i assumed those commercials that said "this is how it feels to chew five gum" were referencing the exact experience of this singular viscous smoothie.
what's worse is that we knew our mother would hate that we wasted so much vanilla extract. so we had to make it worth it. we had to actually finish the drink. it wasn't "wasting" it if we actually drank it, right? we huddled around outside in the blistering sun, gagging and passing around a single green potion, shivering with disgust. each sip was transcendent, but in a sort of non-euclidean way. i think this is where i lost my binary gender. it eroded certain parts of me in an acidic gut ecology collapse.
here's the thing about love and trust: the next day my brother made a different shake, and i drank it without complaint. it's been like 15 years. he's now a genuinely skilled cook. sometimes one of the three of us will fuck up in the kitchen or find something horrible or make a terrible smoothie mistake and then we pass it to each other, single potion bottle, and we say try it it's delicious. it always smells disgusting. and then, cerimonious, we drink it together. because that's what family does.
