Oh, they are SO MOTHERFUCKING BACK! This sounds like it's their new "Thunderpussy" - either "Thunderpussy II" or maybe a reply to "Thunderpussy", even? It's hot as fuck, anyway.
something that irks me that I’ve noticed is how because ashton (and to a lesser extent calum) present more masculine/tend to be more protective towards other band members etc there seems to be a stark difference in how the fandom perceives their need to be handled gently and shown it’s safe to feel things. and ik it’s probably a subconscious thing but think about it for a second please. and maybe we decide to make a more conscious decision to show our more masc presenting people we know it’s okay to feel things and be vulnerable yea?
My thing is that I just do not trust a single person who was involved in the show. It just seems like a lot of PR to fix their image and foster sympathy/goodwill/interest.
To be fair kidnapping Chay wasn't Vegas's fucking plan, Tawan is just insane. Agreed though I think Kim and Porsche are decent in-laws
I know it was left a little vague, but in canon, Tawan went off Vegas’s plan by accelerating it.
Vegas and Porsche make a plan to pick up Chay the next day so he can join the two of them on the run. while that itself wouldn’t be kidnapping, Vegas’s entire plan was to. y’know. frame Porsche as a sell-out and kill him and Chay to cover it up. kidnapping Chay and holding him hostage is still part of that plan, it was still going to happen—Tawan ruined it by kidnapping Chay before Vegas could.
also, even if it wasn’t, Tawan kidnapping Chay in the first place was to help Vegas. this doesn’t necessarily put that blame directly on Vegas, but who the fuck would blame Porsche if he were really fucking pissed at Vegas for it anyways? bros don’t kidnap other bros little brothers, not even tangentially >:(
but Porsche doesn’t hold it against Vegas! he might’ve let it go because of unusual circumstances and how he was short of options at the time, but Porsche overall has astronomical reserves for forgiveness. he quietly works through his feelings when he’s upset with people and usually comes out the other end having forgiven them—see Arthee, see Kinn, see Vegas, hell even see Khun! the only person he doesn’t forgive is Korn (who killed his father, kidnapped his mother, forced him into the mafia, and fucking more) (fuck Korn). getting back to my point—Porsche doesn’t hold grudges against people, and he most certainly is going to start with Kim.
Porsche just plain isn’t going to hate Kim for any of the mafia shit, or even anything that went down in Kim and Chay’s canon relationship. they’re dumdums in love, but Porsche will let them sort it out themselves (may I remind people that Porsche only punched Vegas once for KIDNAPPING AND TORTURING HIS FRIEND even while also giving him the chance to talk shit out with Pete—Chay might be more of a hot button than Pete, but Kim only hurt Chay’s feelings and ran away, Porsche is not so irrational). sorry nonny, I did not mean to go off on a rant here, but I despise this trope where Porsche hates on Kim because it:
a) completely disregards who he is in canon and massively distorts Porsche’s character into this irrational piece of shit hypocrite
b) overrules Chay’s feelings/choices/decisions just so the author can be mean to Kim
c) Porsche’s gaydar got replaced with a nongdar. the only person who adopts more little brothers than Porsche is Tankhun—Porsche 100% sees angry little bitch Kim and goes free brother! without stopping to ask permission
had been considering self publishing a poetry chapbook with all the cancer related poetry i’ve written bc i know it’s not good enough for traditional publishing but like i sent my “manuscript” (30-ish poems) to my brother just to get an opinion from someone i knew would be real with me and he was like “i couldn’t get through very many, it was too heavy” so it’s like now i have all these poems that nobody wants to read and sure it was nice and cathartic to write them but i want people to want to read them. i know i wouldn’t make much money beyond people that know me buying it out of obligation but it has always been my life goal to have something published whether professionally or on my own so maybe i should just do it. idk i just don’t think anyone is out there looking for sad cancer poems to read particularly ones that are mediocre anyway
got so caught up in the joy of music that I forgot being left-handed is particularly alienating and expensive when you’re trying to learn electric guitar/bass.
Needed some fun fun fuuuun in my liiiiiiiiiife and The Drums delivered nicely 🔥 Third time seeing Jonny playing live (last time being the live Portamento show in 2021) and he was as fun and cute on stage as he often is. Also did this beautiful transition from I Hope Time Doesn't Change Him into Down by the Water that I wish IG didn't screw up on me (and I hope someone recorded it lol) But the vocals during that tho 😍
Was just a bit disappointed he didn't touch on Brutalism much, 626 Bedford Avenue and Body Chemistry being some favorites off it, but at least I got that at my first show in 2019 haha. Fun show for sure!
[Ft the Portamento shirt i bought and an impromptu clean-shaven look lol--decided to lightly trim my beard while I was running late and trimmed a bit too much in one spot, so opted to just start from scratch since I'd had it in mind anyway 🙃]
