So are we living in Bobby’s coma dream now?

I mean, I don’t understand why Bobby would dream about half this stuff (I thought Henren & Eddie losing their kids -> him losing Robbie & Brooke, but then Madney & idk how that would fit in)

I also don’t know why Bobby would dream about a daddy issues joke, unless his & Buck’s relationship is MUCH different than we’ve perceived-

Him not following up with anybody abt being captain could be explained away by a dream. Like, you literally handed in your resignation weeks ago (based on what Gerrard said) but you didn’t pay that any mind before strolling into the firehouse in uniform? Like, did you forget?

Idk, it doesn’t make sense, but Bobby was literally DEAD for 14 minutes. His heart was not beating. They were talking about the possibility of taking him off of life support should it proceed for too long (at least, that’s what I assume the conversation between Athena & Dr. Salazaar was about, Bobby’s “directive”), but he wakes up same day & has Z E R O lingering effects?? He’s up & at ‘em & ready to work as a firefighter again???

Like, I get that this is a silly little TV show, & we have to suspend our disbelief or whatever, but this genuinely just feels like lazy writing. “I don’t want to 😔 Bobby’s fine bc I say so 😌 We don’t need to worry about consequences 😘🤭”

This show is genuinely so hard to fucking watch sometimes. Common sense? No, we don’t have any of that here, check a different firehouse

I'll make a post about it later but I swear the WORST advice I see being passed around in art circles is that art is a popularity contest and the only possible way to make money off of art, especially online, is to get popular first. Like that is BLATANTLY false.

The art community CONSTANTLY has to remind artists how damaging the numbers game is, and I think a huge reason why is because of how common a misconception it is that you have to be popular to make a living. It feels like the second I leave my specifically curated tumblr art community, I am bombarded with this idea.

HECATE

double, double toil and trouble. yeah you don't really get much facetime in the myths but you're literally the god of magic and dogs so stay winning. mysterious goth energy, does she really do complete dark rituals or is that just her vibe. no one knows and you're not telling

HERMES

you literally were born and then invented mischeif. like you were a newborn and you immidiately inbented theivery and then lying. go you. you are the living embodiment of chaotic neutral. Yes people are so annoyed by you sometimes, but you are so unbelievably charming that you get away with everything. who doesn't love a charming rogue

ARTEMIS

i mean this in the kindest way possible, you give off huge autistic lesbian vibes. oh you're living in the isolated wilderness? hmm. only with women? yes uh huh. if we're following myths as metaphors you have literal trans egg cracking energy so doubly good for you.

SILENT ADMISSIONIN

tarot, the fool is numbered 0 – the number of unlimited potential. as the protagonist, he is ever present and therefore needs no number as well as no introduction. the world revolves around you in ways that i can't begin to describe, though you'd shrug it off if i were to begin to explain. i need you to know that time is running out. if you want to get this done, you need to start now. sloth is your greatest enemy in this world, and you can only run so far from the opposition when you start with such a disadvantage. keep your head high, yeah? the kid you were is still in there somewhere. you need to show him that it was worth it.

CAUTERIZING RAGE

the house has burned around you, and you’re the only one left standing. is it gratifying to be the survivor? fear and anger are weapons in your capable hands, used only to serve your agenda of fighting back when deemed necessary. you're a powerful person, built from the ashes of your despair and your family's mistakes. with time, you'll bloom into someone softer, like the full blossoms that grow each spring and wither away with the leaves in fall. they won't disappear if you take your eyes off of them. you're enough.

ANIMAL INTUITION

loyalty is the saint you pray to. if you ever were stabbed in the back by your beloved, you'd probably apologize. to your enemies, you're fierce. to your allies, even fiercer. you cultivate a thick inner circle built on promises and devotion, fit only for the best of the best. it's impossible for most to even begin to dissect the type of person you are, owing to your unbreakable emotional walls and confusing philosophies. dream careers? body guard, movie star, unwitting pawn. don't let people get the best of that loyalty.

FRACTURED GLASS

no amount of orchestrated class is ever going to hide the fact that you’re doomed to be alone. you’re a puppet, you’re a weapon, but most importantly? you’re a fraud. your facade isn’t malicious, but that doesn’t change a thing. everything in your life is in your control now, and you chose to let yourself become stiff and distant. you’re guilty of everything you blame yourself for, and your misfortune is the fault of nobody but yourself. your selfish nature forges you into a man-made monster, so quick to blame and so desperate to escape consequence. i hope that you can become someone you’re proud of soon.

i was thinking of reading your resistance au because it seems really good but can you pls tell me if its planned to have a happy ending in some way or if its just angst past a certain point? also idk if you got my last ask but id like to be mutuals!

hi!! i can confirm that the resistance au is planned to have a happy ending! the angst is rough now, but it’ll end happy :]

as for mutuals, i don’t do mutuals/follows upon request! general tumblr etiquette is that mutuals tend to get built on frequent interactions/friendship! i personally don’t follow people all that often, since i already have a lot of repetition of posts on my dash from my mutual circle. i tend to follow based on whether people have content im interested in that’s different from what i already get, or if i’m friends with them. most of my mutuals i have from discord communities, or they were my mutuals’ mutuals and we tangentially interacted enough that we ended up becoming mutuals ourselves!

as a general statement, it’s best to hang out in the fandom space and build relationships naturally! you’ll get mutuals that you’re bonded with and interact with a bunch, and can get some really great friends out of it :]

so one of my maladaptive daydream worlds is like, post apocalypse? it's comforting to me for some reason idk but earlier i was like raiding walmart for supplies after the disaster and when i walked thru the clothes i was like "omg, vintage!! soo cute <3"

thinking about how the love language of miravi is food. aaravi helping miranda with her food issues. miranda figuring out how to garden so that aaravi has fresh ingredients. aaravi making dishes that will actually fulfill miranda's nutritional needs. miranda learning how to make food from aaravi and to make her proud and so she has something good to eat when her energy is low. them both putting in so much care for each other. ooooooough.

the allergy i am seeing grow up around small talk in any form is troubling to me. do you know how to make friends with people in your physical environment? it typically starts with small talk. do you want to live in community? small talk. do you want to have the type of relationship with your neighbors where you can run over and borrow a battery for your smoke detector when it starts beeping at 10pm? small talk!! do you want leeway from your coworkers when you fuck up something small? you gotta be able to build a relationship and that's small talk, baybeee.

"but i don't need friends and i don't care about community!" okay, lone ranger, what about the people in your community who need you? "but i have social anxiety!" me too, bud! we simply must soldier on. making up lists of questions to ask people helps. and people are predisposed to be generous, i've found. even if you make some kind of mistake, what is this but the natural give and take of human interaction? nobody is perfect.

you were not put on this earth to live by yourself and then die. you need people and people need you. treat those around you with curiosity and generousness of spirit and you will gain so much goodwill in return.

I was numbly scrolling through job listings and happened across the kindest-sounding job page I've ever seen. Saying there was no requirements at all (besides being happy or something), that they'll walk you through everything and train you. And that they're happy to hire anyone, no matter how young or old, whether it's your first job or you want a little extra money on the side or you're retired and want something to do.

The feel of the wording was like, "Aww poor baby—here, have a blanket and a hot chocolate and I'll make everything better." While the job listings I usually see are like, "Working nights, weekends, and holidays are required. And if you don't know these five obscure things by heart and have eight years of experience, don't even bother applying."

And the place is close enough that I should be able to get there easily on rollerblades (if I can finally get use to the pair I bought awhile ago).

...But then I'd mentioned to my dad that I might apply for a job, and he reminded me that I hadn't wanted to be tied up during the day of the eclipse, and suggested I wait to see if it's still available after that.

...And then I checked my desk calendar and saw several other days I need to be free for scattered throughout the next two months.

...I'm beginning to think I'm just not cut out for working.

even though i like art history enough to major in it, one thing i will say is most art history documentaries ive seen are kinda ass. or at least, theyre not something i personally find compelling. a lot of vaguely dramatic music and disconnected fragments of interviews, edited with an assumption that the audience already thinks the works are masterpieces created by unknowable savants but also being largely uninterested in the process or the works themselves and their context and how that makes it interesting, i dunno maybe out of fear of demystifying the work? i dunno, maybe i just can't figure out who they're made for, because its probably not me LOL
