You found that school has always been a drag. No matter how many social events Midtown tried to throw at the student body, nothing could ever make you enjoy an eight hour torture of sitting through classes (lunch excluded). 

However, there was one good thing that made just a little bit of appreciation in you getting an education slightly important. 

Peter Parker.

After properly meeting him on the train a few weeks prior, you found yourself seeking him out, wanting to know whatever you could about him without making it stalkerish, or overall weird.

A couple of your friends mutual to the boy had told you how insanely sweet he was, and even though he has his disappearing moments, he still finds a way to be there when needed. To you, that's a certain admiration you revel in with anyone.

Sure the two of you talked here and there, but given your growing infatuation to the boy, its a more so awkward exchange than genuine chemistry. There were even times you had to ask yourself if you were the problem or if he's just not as people person as you thought he was.

For instance, today in Spanish Class, you were stuck on the Spanish word for 'Phenomenal', so naturally you ask the smartest person in the room for help, and since you were in a sort of acquaintance relationship with Peter, you turned and shot your question to him.

Peter's reaction to your question however was far from how he interacted with you the weeks before, and you felt something stir in your gut, a bad feeling almost. Not only did he half answer, but he lacked eye contact.

You read somewhere that during conversations, eye contact is a super important thing to have and it shows that a person enjoys talking to you, and they're hearing what you're saying by maintaining such an aspect.

Maybe the little overlydramatic side of you could be reaching and he might just be really shy, but it also made no sense, because Peter did seem like he liked your company, at least for a little while.

As your thoughts of what if's invade your mind, you walk down the hall after asking your math teacher if you may use the washroom (he made a dumb math joke before you left), you notice a familiar set of brown curls exit the boys' washroom, and you stop in your tracks just as he did.

You look him over in his blue Midtown sweatshirt, which he probably got from school spirit week, holding a hall pass from the detention classroom. 

"Hi." Peter says.

"Hi." You say back.

The strained silence set an unwanted tension between you both and Peter quietly fiddles with the makeshift pass in his hands before clearing his throat.

"You look nice today." He softly smiled at you and you blink in genuine confusion as the butterflies in your stomach flutter at his compliment.

"Thank you." You respond and awkwardly place your hands behind your back.

A few more seconds of quietness go by.

"I hope you know I'm not ignoring you on purpose, or—I don't want you to think I hate you or something." Peter explains, to your relief.

Being under the impression the boy hated you, or just fizzled out interest overtook your mind more than you'd like to admit.

All you could do is nod in response, thankful but still a little worried.

"It's just...I don't really know how to talk to you." Peter admits and continues, "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, I'm not mad at you or anything." You reassure, smiling in hopes he believes you.

Peter looks around in deep thought and takes a deep breath. You could feel his nervousness practically oozing from him.

"Look, I'm just going to say it because my aunt told me I should be more confident and upfront, no matter the outcome—" He rambles and you furrow your eyebrows with a confused smile. "I really like you, I know its technically been a few weeks, but I don't know..." Peter shrugs.

Your heart drops to the bottom of your stomach listening to his words, hearing the boy you were so infatuated with and even asked around about openly admit to liking you. It was almost impossible to ignore the feeling of happiness rising in you.

"You like me?" You bite the bottom of your lip and grin.

"Well, yeah." Peter shows you a half smile.

"I like you too." You ultimately admit.

Peter's half smile turns into an even bigger one.

"You do? I mean—That's awesome, maybe..I could hopefully, successfully ask you on a date? If you want to go, not forcing you or anything." He watches and waits for your reaction.

You felt like you were in a dream and one simple pinch would wake you up from this fairytale.

"I would like that." You agree and you swear Peter's smile grows inhumanly larger.

"Okay, cool."

"Cool."

A more comfortable beat of silence goes by.

"I should probably get back to...dentition before the Coach think I skipped or something." Peter explains to which you nod in understanding.

"Right." You press your lips together as he starts to walk past you.

The boy stops in his tracks and turns to face you. "Is it okay if I take you to a science related museum for our date? Because I know some cool facts unless you think that's lame, then we could go to Delmar's or something, but if you don't like sandwiches either—" You stop him before he continues with his habit of rambling.

"Both is fine." You chuckle and Peter nods at your submission.

"Okay, both it is."

Peter turns around and unknowingly fails to notice you watch him just about skip his way back to detention and you smile at the adorable gesture.

Almost completely forgetting your bladder needed relief, the five minute conversation finally coming to an end, you make your way to the girl's washroom with a more confident pep in your step.

Au where odin is stuck in the timeloop to stop ragnarok but hes losing his sanity with every attempt (and he mightve tried to end it more than once) the orginal meme on twitter inspired me Also theres a person who posted this idea before me and i think i should tag them even though its nothing much of a drawing @bethanythebogwitch also i have an ask in my inbox and im going to work on it (i already started tho) and i will try drawing it as fast as i can bcuz the only designs of them i drew was in some shitty notebook 2 years ago so its nice that i get to refresh it (i usually post drawings that are older its not new so i didnt finish it while having the ask in the inbox)

the orginal meme

I HAVE TO BREAK MY SILENCE...

Let be real here this ain't a movie this is real life. Jimin is enlisting to a full on government organization that has been happening for a very long time so Jimin is safe and in good hands. His enlisting as a proud Korean man in the military and not only that his a MEMBER OF BTS so all this worry about "jimin is a victim", "jimin will be harassed" is getting blown out of proportion.

Threats happening on Twitter/online will most likely stay there when it comes to a high profile organization such as the national defence force guys. But Yes people should stop with this hate on jikook and jimin *like seriously it going to 2024*.

The shit that happened with Jin embarrassed the defence force enough so why the hell would they want another case. Jimin will go and return, yes he will be exposed to the realities of war, war propaganda on North Koreans and Americans, getting stuck in a gas tank for 10 minute and a sergeant yelling insults and orders at his face (this is horrible get my babies out of there). But that what every recruit gets to exprience in those first 5 weeks whereby their mentally, emotionally and physically destroyed and that for me is the main reason why JIKOOK APPLIED FOR THE COMPANIONSHIP option.

It a known fact that those first weeks of basic training are the worst and they decided to be there for each other during that hardship. It not even confirmed if they will serve the same division but what set and stoned is that they will spend the hardest part of their military service together.

So all that BS of harm befalling Jimin will remain wishes bcuz it won't happen. The BS of JK coming in as protector is stupid to. As it says... they will be EACH OTHERS COMPANIONS to ensure that they are healthy emotionally, mentally and physically for them to perform to the best of their abilities. They will have each other in there for those horrible 5 weeks and that what counts.

Please continue to report those horrid accounts but rest assure that all those horrible threats hold no weight. Don't mind the idiots who are making idiotic theories on why jikook is going together (they have went so low to even say the government is part of the jikook fanservice conspiracy *sighs*)

Jimin and Jungkook will go and return safely and I can proudly say that becuase they will have each other for those 5 weeks. (Hopefully for the whole duration of their enlistment too.) So let us celebrate that instead. JIKOOK WILL HAVE EACH OTHER.

*in addition they will have Jin too 🥹

elms sargebon anon back again ❤️ shdjeks i feel so shy bc i DO have tumblr, but i wouldn't even be able to message you but i have like 2% of a draft i'm dying to share... do you have twitter perhaps 😭😭 (so sorry again)

btw i'm obsessed with your response... alex kissing logan in a bout of like. sleep and delirium. doing it so thoughtlessly bcs he's dreamed of it for so long it's almost real to him.. logan waking up, panicked, so worried it'll ruin his next stint. cannot afford to fail. he's reinvented himself here, clawed his way from the dumps where f1 and williams discarded him and built himself anew, misplaced anger at alex because he makes him feel like that 22 year old kid again, losing and losing. crawls into the car with vengeance: he has to prove himself. it doesn't matter what alex does to him, what alex feels, what he feels. he needs to win. and then: rain. starts struggling on the straight, no visibility. discussion on the radio: maybe we should put alex in. his time is better on the rain. porsche is catching up. and logan knows they're right and that's what does him in at the end: it's always alex, on top of that wall looming in front of him, he's so good, better than anyone knows, better than his car is capable of, better than his results show. he tells the pit wall he'll box for driver change. there's no time when they swap at all, it's that godless hour where everything seems dark and hopeless, and logan catches alex's eyes and it's not the right time, god, alex must have a thousand things he wants to say too -- he bonks their helmets together, a quick, fleeting moment, and tells alex, "win this. win this for me and i'll let you kiss me when we're both awake." AND ALEX ALBON HAS THE BEST CAREER DRIVE OF HIS LIFE. 😭😭

happy holidays to you, thanks for indulging me in this ❤️❤️

AHHH ANON ITS OK ❤️❤️ im kind of enjoying this little back and forth its very enjoyable. HOWEVER. i do have twitter (same @ as here! I'm not very active at all tho be warned) and I'd love to help u brainstorm or whatever u need for this story bcuz I LOVE it

but anyways. oh my gosh. Logan waking up and feeling happy and pleasant because Alex is in his arms, but he quickly realizes, fuck, this was really stupid. Alex kissed him, and it felt nice, amazing, even, but it was so fucking stupid because now Logan won't stop thinking about it. about the fact that they've never talked this out. that he doesn't know what Alex wants from him anymore. about how Alex makes Logan feel like a hazard

but then Logan gets himself up anyway, and Alex groans in his arms, and Logan ignores it. ignores that he can feel Alex's eyes on his back as he gets dressed. ignores how Alex says something to him. he can't be distracted by Alex, not when he has so much to prove out there. which is funny, because Logan has proven himself– he clawed his way tooth and nail back up to the top step, more than once proving that he was more than F1, more than Williams. more than the liability everyone said he was

and the car is good. really good. Jamie left it in a good spot, and for a long second, Logan doesn't remember what he was so nervous about. why he felt like someone had poured lava down his throat, or stuck a firework in his ribcage. he just has to drive, do the thing he's been doing for over fifteen years, the thing he's proven time and time again that he is worthy of

and then almost an hour in, the radio fizzles to life. and then Logan sees the rain on his windshield. and his stomach drops. fuck. a million different thoughts flood Logan's brain in a nanosecond, and he can physically feel the neurons firing down different paths in his brain, remembering the data and the team meetings and the rain protocols

and by the time his engineer comes on radio to tell him to pit and swap with Alex, Logan has already come to that conclusion hours ago. that no matter what he does, Alex will always be right around the corner. Logan will never be the first choice. and the thoughts are poison, and Logan knows that none of it is true, and that it's all just because Alex had a better time in the wet during qualifying, and the team is just looking out for the best result. it still stings

but Logan swallows his pride, and his last few laps he does before pitting feel like an eternity; the unsatisfying conclusion to an equally unsatisfying movie, one with a horrible ending that has you walking out feeling worse than you did when you arrived. but at least the car is in one piece. Logan didn't fuck it all up

and suddenly he feels 22 years old again, a rookie sat next to one of the most formidable drivers on the field, stuck in one of the shittiest cars and a team that was hardly holding itself together, and nobody could have prepared him for what he was about to go through over the next year and a half. except Alex, who tried to make Logan feel like an equal, despite what everyone said

despite how everyone pit them against each other, pointed and laughed at the qualifying differences, or how Alex has never once been challenged by a teammate at Williams, that Logan was never deserving of F1. Alex still tried to drown out all that noise, even though he was practically the one killing Logan's career

it's an odd sourness that Logan finds in his mouth. he feels like he should be upset, because Alex really was here, once again stealing one of Logan's opportunities. but its unfair to think that way. Alex has tried just as hard as Logan has to get to where they are. and Alex has proved himself time and time again, just the same way that Logan has

they're mirror images of each other. and when Logan climbs out of the car to swap, he and Alex make eye contact through their visors, and in that one moment, Logan realizes that Alex is probably thinking the same way he is right now. there's never been a moment where they haven't been on the same page

and it feels like time has stopped as they stand here, rain pitter-pattering in the pit box, and on their helmets, and soaking into the collars of their race suits. and the moment only seems to unfreeze once Alex bumps their heads together, helmets making a tinny sound at the contact. and Logan can see Alex's smile through the visor, eyes folding into a soft crescent

and the gesture feels like it means nothing and everything all at once. and it makes Logan laugh, because he's felt that way for years, always second guessing whether something has meaning or not, because his entire career has been chalk full of people being double sided and saying things that they don't actually mean. but with Alex it's easy to believe

[ribbitdeltarune]

the post like i said. its been 2 days later (maybe a bit more. im a bit late at this point..) But! 14 of november! My birthday !!! :p didnt do anything for myself but i did spend some (more like a ton) time with friends

so ahead will just be rambling . read if u want

Alriiight so. i am. Dead. i dont post very often . Thats bcuz i dont actually have a active online presence when it comes 2 posting lol this is sorta my first time . however i did post a few times on twitter before and got a decent following but that was basically never anyway . Thank you all for (checks notes) 19 followers! That. is a first actually

however i also kinda have 2 apologize since i dont post a lot which makes this account.. uh, semi-inactive? shrug. as i did mention before in a prev post i am holding back a lotta stuff that i havent posted yet . oops! i personally dont like posting irl photos because 1) i am actually dogwater at taking photos, 3) my camera quality sucks and 2) i dont actually draw on A4 paper very often or like notebook paper at all lol. (its this small one thats more like a notebook to write stuff down stuff you gotta remember, an agenda or whatever. not like i care i use it to draw anyway. it aint got lines its just full white paper (sometimes colored depending on the one i buy) so its for drawing in my view.) but the bad thing is most drawings i made of ribbit so far are... On Paper.

Now. I can just upload them as is but i dont like doing that . i can also just make them digital drawings but if you think im capable of doing that without immediately doing something else you may be wrong

Speaking of thats mostly why this acc is also semi-inactive . whenever i DO draw digitally im probably also doing another thing at the same time so i get distracted and then get stuck on doing something else completely and forget i have to draw!!! Oopsies. im also bad at executing things (''man im gonna draw ribbit right now'' (doesnt do it) (its also a 50/50 if i actually do it or not)) so thats part of it. do i Think posting and/or drawing ribbit stuff is a chore? Not really. i actually like drawing stuff 4 this fandom and im attached 2 the characters + the mod anyway so its not like im gonna stop This soon . not even a year in yet!

I also have a lot of ideas so i hop between 'em a lot (i have so many animations/animatics in mind but guess who cant animate and also drawing frames take longer than just drawing sighs)... thats why most posts on here is just doodles so far .

to be fair though i have been in a . Uh. I guess fine. Maybe a bit bad headspace as of a few weeks now so i havent really gotten the urge/want to post rn and who knows how long that'll take to go away anyway. thinking of trying 2 get sum stuff finished and then queueing a few posts just so i can get some brainworms out of ma head . and Who Knows if i'll really do that. Future Is Mystery!

Oh and to add i still need to finish or get to like maybe the 5th chapter for a fic im working on rn so theres that too. im still on chapter 4 (progress is fine. i think ill rewrite the dream segment?) and then i will Hopefully get 2 work on chapter 5. god bless being unable to execute things AND to spice it up focus on things (sarcasm)

i am however kinda busy these days. Schoolnstuff. I get in drawing moods a lot (literally everyday bro i dont get burnt out easily or get demotivated that much bc i just finish it eventually anyway) but i need to pass math to pass the year itself so maybe no art posts until thats done. i might post every now and then though. Speaking of posting! Did you know VeeReMia is actually a pun on viremia which is, ''a medical term for viruses present in the bloodstream''. vee came first as part of the instrumental theme, and then maxine added the other syllables. Fun isnt it (i cant stop thinking about it now)

Thanks for reading . I think thats all. Maybe. Shrug.

Also current pfp is placeholder i also need 2 make one BANGS FISTS ON TABLE REPEATEDLY

[coolswagwoman]

[howtowearblackinthesummer]

I don’t have SmokeWeedBlowKisses anymore bcuz Tumblr thought I was a terrorist?? Anyway here’s my backup and I am both Back and Up bcuz FUCK Twitter or X or whatever tf it is now. I hated it there and I’m coming home 🥲 I have my abyss to voice my thoughts into and I absolutely fucking will (especially since any remnants of SWBK are gone and there was 12 years worth of trauma and journaling that I worked through and would revisit but now I can’t so I’m stuck repeating the same karmic cycles bcuz any progressive growth has been deleted by some internet entity that felt like I didn’t deserve an outlet based on something I MIGHT have reblogged ((idek bcuz they wouldn’t fuckin tell me what the “flagged post” was)) and now I’m starting essentially from scratch but with a tad more wisdom

[the-type-a]

Rock Band AU

Courtney is the main vocalist & occasionally plays the guitar, Duncan is the lead guitarist, Gwen on drums & idk who else could be involved bcuz this is just an idea I’ve been throwing around in my head

-Duncney were together before the band was formed and stayed together till they reached stardom BUT they eventually break up due to many reasons (omg) and they decide to stay “cordial” for the band(which took a lot of convincing from the other members)

-Duncan wanted to live the “true rockstar lifestyle” and in his mind he couldn’t do that in a relationship because he’s dumb

-Courtney of course lets the fame get to her and becomes a bit controlling of the band

-Courtney writing diss songs about Duncan while he just has to stfu and perform them with her(tensions rise)

-all the members partake in substance abuse because well, it’s a rock band au and it adds to the drama lmao so Duncan livin’ like a rock star, Courtney does it to deal with the stress but will deny it profusely, and the other members need it just to deal with both of them and their drama

-so Duncan’s an asshole and the substances don’t help but just imagine.. Courtney in the green room fighting GROUPIES out of jealousy, oh the press has a field day because of “inside sources” leaking pics and vids 👀

-Of course any time there’s negative media about Courtney, Duncan goes wild on twitter(unless he’s mad at her) and his PR Team has to take his phone away.. he very much fights his own fans lol

-ofc there’s Gw*ncan shippers because drama & that adds even more tension between the members, Courtney’s insecure & gwen’s like “man I just wanna play the drums STOP”

-Ok but like also Courtney’s sick of seeing girls leave Duncan’s trailer so she gets her first groupie OR maybe she hooks up with a band member from a band their touring with and Duncan finds out? Oh boy.

-ok but on-stage drama?? Duncney just glaring at eachother while performing and Duncan smashes his guitar or Courtney gets all in his face, belting out lyrics dissing him specifically

-DRUNKney in either ones trailers after a show, both just crying about how much they love and can’t live without each other but the next day they act like nothing happened because they’re both stupid messes

-Ok but imagine the mess at awards shows, Courtney being the only sober one while her band mates act a fool?? Red carpet drama?? Blowing up at the paparazzi for invasive questions?? Oml

-Duncan is very much toxic in this and despite him living the rockstar life, he hates seeing Courtney do the same, Gwen will always call him out on it and he plays dumb like BOI

-Ok but awe imagine Duncan writing love songs for Courtney in the beginning and vice versa, a few of them are their most popular songs so they HAVE to perform them, ouch. There’s definitely compilations of their performances where they look at each other with heartbreak and longing(also compilations of their on-stage drama lmao)

-Ok but Courtney’s main look is Bell bottoms, chunky heeled boots & a Bustier(very much inspired by Selena thnx) but she didn’t start this look until she became single which had Duncan punching the air

-Ok but Tour Bus drama?? All of them in a cramped space, the boys are messy, the girls have too much stuff, they can’t get away from each other when fighting because they’re all stuck in the same small vicinity lol

-ok but the bands sound is constantly changing but stays within the rock genre because of all their different aesthetics which makes them so popular because they bring in fans that have different tastes✨ There’s definitely an insane amount of arguing whenever writing/producing a new album lmao

There’s eventually a happy ending or something Idk I just need a trashy, drama filled fic full of rockstar aesthetic and good tunes✨ but add more if you’d like & who could the other members be?? Omg

Omfg I love these so much! Definitely need a Rock Band AU!!

I immediately thought of this fanart from way back when.

Color by daanton and lineart by TDI-Exile on DA

I know Bridgette’s on the drums in it but like either way it’s a vibe.

The tension this band has to endure from Duncney is unreal. I can imagine everyone needing couching for whenever they do interviews because if not?? They would spill so much tea!

This might be a hot take but like, Geoff being the tour manager? He’d 100% know how to get good business for them. All the clubs, bars, stadiums?

Omfg DJ as their head of security? Bodyguard DJ!!! Everyone sees him and just knows not to try some stupid shit. He’s rock solid and will shut shut down when it comes to protecting the band.

Idk about anything else lol you pretty much nailed it with this one ❤️‍🔥

[skepticalarrie]

allie do u think his team noticed the way his fandom grew during pandemic and how there was influx of so many new larries bcuz of tiktok and other social media and that also factored in somewhere for the push of dad image? cuz you could clearly see from his twitter engagement alone at that time. he was getting 600k likes on each tweet. not all of them stuck around but surely they took notes.

Oh his team is absolutely aware of how big his fanbase is and how much it grew in the past couple of years. It's their job, after all lol but it's hard to go unnoticed, and his engagement is incredible. A lot of bigger artists would die for it. But I have no idea if this actually has any influence on Louis' stunts. I mean, I'm sure that a few years ago when the fake pregnancy was still so fresh in everyone's minds, this entire fuckery wouldn't be possible. So yeah, maybe this makes sense.

[todayisawthewhxlewxrld]

[maridied]

[therodrigator6]

In talks abt c//a, some shippers touch on how the show's theme is "everyone is redeemable". How about no? Is it such a hot take to say a char is not redeemable after she's badly hurt the people around her, done heinous deeds like trying to end the world, and also not take responsibility for her actions etc? Is it a hot take bcuz she's been badly abused since childhood, distorting her emotions and morals? But can no lines be drawn at all? And y don't we look for a better rep for an abuse victim?

It’s a very interesting thing in that regard, yeah.  I’ve come to the conclusion that, well She-Ra as a whole was never made to tell... an complex story, or a compelling universe, nor was it ever going to challenge it’s viewers.

I think, She-Ra was made as a hyper-personal story, with a very clear focus on being comfort media. As I’ve said before, although it tackles many different characters going through pain, lashing out, growth, etc. It tries it’s best to never allow anyone to actually face... damning consecuences, no matter how terrible the choice or the action.

I personally believe, yanno, this show WAS made for your average Catra... that is to say, people who relate to maybe having gone through abuse, potentially became abusers themselves, and have perhaps worked on getting better and seeking forgiveness and love back.

I’m not too sure WHY the show centered itself so MUCH on Catra being... just very cruel to people around her, specially with people who ACTUALLY cared for her, and never allowed her to ADRESS herself and seek PERSONAL growth, however this narrative of... coddling and forgiveness through ROMANTIC LOVE, “I’ve always loved you! Please stay”... I mean it’s comfortable, it’s pretty shallow, romantic in a way, to anyone who’d like to be coddled and stuck to Catra, that is.

Crew-Ra deffinately subscribes to this ideal, wherein, your redemption and your healing can ONLY come, truly, from someone who will love you, accept you and coddle you “Despite your flaws”.

I deffinately UNDERSTAND when people speak so fondly of it, I mean, it SEEMS super nice and ideal, but PERSONALLY I think it’s too naive and irresponsable when it disregards the... reactionary emotions of characters who were hurt BY Catra? But, AGAIN, it was never ABOUT them.

I don’t feel as though judging Catra’s story or character in a manner in which, one thinks she’s become irredemable is wrong, or should be shunned, that’s just what happens when one judges media. I feel terribly sorry for anyone who was lured in by all the flags and accolades this show and it’s story gets, and found a comfort piece that has such a flimsy message to say and felt disregarded.

It is my SINCERE hope, that She-Ra will become... a steping stone for better stories to come were perhaps abuse, and the cycle of abuse can actually be deeply and critically explored. Yanno, outside the OBVIOUS milestones in representation (Which are also face value at best, when the entire writing crew is white, able bodied, blah blah blah), but yeah, here’s hoping.

There’s also a discussion to be had around... why late teens and young adults on online platforms, like twitter, SHOULDN’T influence the production of CHILDREN’S animated media? sjkegbksejbg, as in, so glad ya’ll had fun with shipping, and uh THE MESSYNESS OF THIS ROMANCE, OH BOY? Has anyone actually seen a Y7 child actually enjoy this show? I personally haven’t had the chance, I mean I hope so, it was marketed FOR THEM jhsebnrgjk.

So uh, I think, we should advocate for better stories, made for their RESPECTIVE audiences, with more diverce voices MAKING them, from the get go. Yeah.

[couchie]

oh shit so um-

i dont know the color of the sky one but i can explain the rest

the november 5th one is. well. you remember when all the undertale artists that memed the shit out of it when tumblr sexyman polls on twitter said sans and at the same time the queen died? well this is a lot like that. sit tight for ur impromptu history lesson bcuz this is a major trainwreck.

ok so. 5th of november, 2020. another wave of covid comes so everyone is back in lockdown. US elections are being counted so everyone as a whole is holding their breath. im not very familiar with that one so i looked it up a tiny bit so apparently nevada's votes could change the entire thing and they are so slow at counting it. everyone is constantly checkin n shit. and also georgia and pennsylvania vote blue (democratic) for the first time in ever so thats a huge shock too. and then there are rumors of putin resigning which is bein talked abt also. and then, to top it off, destiel (dean/castiel, gay ship from supernatural) becomes canon (they openly admit they love each other) after 15 fuckign seasons and immediately after, castiel fuckinb got sent to the aforementioned super mega hell. this is also why u will see a lot of news going around in that meme format

you already know about goncharov, our site made fake movie

and finally, u MUST have heard about rhe suez canal thing right? a ship named evergiven got stuck in there and the whole world's shipping was put on hold bcuz of that. it took so long to fix it that people started going around africa again like it's the 1700s. and also people wrote fanfics abt the ship and the canal. yeah. that was a thing that happened

Hypocrite Pauley (NCIS)

So I'm sure you've all heard by now that Pauley is leaving NCIS. If I still didn't follow SpoilerTV on Twitter I probably would have never known. Anyway.

While I'm quite shocked that she has decided to leave bcuz she just seemed like the type of person to stay on a show until the end.....I can't help but think she is a bit of a hypocrite. I might be using the wrong word but just go with me on this.

Remember back when Cote left....Pauley tried (and failed) to be discrete about her dislike for Cote at that time because of her leaving the show.

Half of that was probably to do with the fact that Cote only gave a week's notice (understandable, no argument there). The other half, everyone thinks it was over the fact that Cote even decided to leave the show.

Now, we all know Pauley is quite expressive (hope that's the right word). She always states how much she loves the show and how she would never leave such an amazing thing and that the whole cast loves NCIS, including Cote.

After it was announced Cote was leaving, you might remember Pauley being in contact with a fan (can't remember her name) that she for some reason trusted with private messages on Twitter. My memory on this part is very vague so bear with me. She basically told the girl that she wasn't happy about Cote leaving on such short notice and that she would even think about leaving such an amazing show and that she felt betrayed (something like that). Then the fan shared the private messages and Pauley blocked her and then threw hate at the girl....But I'm not getting into that drama.

SO.

Back on point, Pauley gave Cote digs on Twitter for leaving the show. Aaannnddd now Pauley is doing the same thing. And what? Now she thinks it will just be like any other situation when an actor leaves a show? Fans/cast/crew are sad and shouting "Don't go!"

No, she will get a little hate for doing the exact same thing she disliked Cote for (at that time, they're prob buddies again now, who knows).

What was her reaction when Michael left? I stopped following her before that.

Apparently she "loves her show" like everyone else and would "never leave".....Ok.

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure she has her reasons for leaving....But so did Cote (even if it was short notice...).

I use to like Pauley ok, but after a few years of following her on Twitter and seeing evidence of all her contradictions and hypocrisy....Well....No. Plus I was sick of all the same shit she posted every.single.day.

I hope all this made sense. 🙂

If you stuck with me til the end well done. Have a lollypop. ☺🍭

jfc have you seen that "mc/genji is some fuck shit" ops later posts like. "it was a JOKE it's INTELLECTUAL HUMOR look at the CHOICE DICTION i used tumblr gets? upset?? when people act like assholes????, twitter understands me thank god they're mutually exclusive platforms right?" holy shit on what level do you have to be to lack this much self awareness?? lmao the funniest thing about all this is how someone who self victimizes this much has "fight me" as their blog header

I mean I saw the “fight me” thing, but I mainly stuck on to the being 16 thing. do you remember being 16?? I sure so. I wore socks with sandals to school and frequented facebook. shit was fucked when I was 16. and I know I can’t compare myself to someone like that really and that being 16 years old shouldn’t excuse them from saying smth that’s offended/hurt others BUT they did come to me to explain and apologize for the misunderstanding. idk about you but literally no one else has ever done smth like that when confronted about a situation like this. like I know countless ppl on here WHO ARE OLDER THAN EVEN ME will be like “it’s my opinion get over it lul” and leave it in the tags

idk I guess all I’m gonna say about this is that they recognized that what they did could be seen as hurtful, apologized, removed it from the tag (although it still shows up in searches, so op of the m/gen/ji post if you’re still hangin around make sure you put slashes in the ship name in the actual text itself bcuz if ppl search the tags they’re still gonna see it!!!), and even made sure to get clarification on why the joke was a lil tasteless.

my whole issue wasn’t with the opinion itself yknow? like they can ship whatever they want and hate whatever they want, it isn’t going to offend me. it’s all about making sure it isn’t going to be put in certain tags where ppl are going to get upset over it, does that make sense? bcuz the community has given me several ways to not see a thing if I don’t want to see it (i.e. blacklist!!! it’s a thing, recommend it!) and I sure as shit don’t have object permanence. meaning I don’t see it, it’s gone from my world, out of existence, goodbye.

so like to sum it up…tag stuff correctly! it avoids situations like this! which is great bcux I’m a small man and I’m afraid of conflict!
