#this rant lowkey made me feel better lmao

[donghoonie-3]

ahhh

[isekyaaa]

I know it's the point for reader-inserts fics to be romantic, but the way people write them so dripping in unrealistic fantastical puppy love really triggers this innately viscerally repulsed reaction in me.

THOUGHTS ° ᡣ𐭩 . ° . [spoilers for ihhbwm + some spoliers for ioihth]

ok so lemme tell you i had the BIGGEST reading slump ever just as i started to read this. so this review may be a little choppy at some points because i've just pointblank forgotten some parts and don't wanna go back and re-read finny's pov just yet.

i was so on the fence about reading this because on one hand i really wanted to read finny's pov and on the other, complete and utter heartbreak.... yeah....... so anyway i read it.

when i tell you that this book had me ugly crying in the middle of the night. like seriously finny's pov?? fucking broke me. are you kidding me? the way he speaks about autumn? ugh when am i gonna find a guy like finny fr? but seriously this book had me on a rollercoaster of emotions just from the heartbreak knowing whats already gonna happen to finny as he describes how happy he is and how he can't believe autumn loves him back, to the smile i had on my face reading about 'the moms' bickering over baby stuff for autumn.

i will say this now i did expect a little more (hence the rating). i wanted idk more closure at the end there. idk rlly know how to describe it better since its 10 o'clock at night and ive had zero sleep for the past four nights in a row. but yeah i wanted something more. (bitch u wanted finny to be alive)

CHARACTERS ° ᡣ𐭩 . ° .

finny -

*sobbing noises* i could go on a damn rant abt this boy. holy shit. he's just perfect. if i see one person ONE PERSON coming after him istg- he was such a caring sweet person like the pencil??? and always going to the sketchy gas station (i nearly called it a servo then lmao) to get the candy autumn likes?? and always making sure people were safe when he drives?? *cough* apparently not you though sylvie *cough* just ahhh laura when i get you. cause like why'd you have to make him get out of the car, hmmm? lets just compromise and you give me an alternate universe where finny misses the puddle or better yet where sylvie kept her damn seatbelt on.

jack -

tbh i wasn't all that excited to read about jack. (also to be fair i was still sobbing from finny's pov so that probably didn't help) like i seriously just thought it'd be some jock trying to process finny's death by hooking up with alexis (who by the way can go jump up her own ass and die) but we got the whole other side of him where he was genuinely affected by finny's death and really was his best friend. but the way he didn't like autumn way just- yeah. also i saw him and sylvie coming from a mile away like seriously it wasn't very subtle.

autumn -

*sobbing noises increase* autumn my baby girl. i just wanted to jump through the pages and give her a hug. seriously i feel robbed that we didn't get to see a happy autumn. angie and her's friend ship was so precious tho. and i love love LOVE that they bonded over being moms/soon-to-be-moms. im also just gonna say the way we didn't see an ounce of jamie or sasha this entire book made me so happy! i also lowkey wanted to see more of when she was an actual mom? like what would she name the baby? i wanted to see domestic autumn a little more. but i still love her so much and it was so lovely to see her heal <3

QUOTES ° ᡣ𐭩 . ° . [spoilers]

"my love for her is the closest thing i have to religion. but it's okay that she doesn't feel the same. i'm fine. i can handle it" - finny

"my devotion to autumn is engraved on my very being. i am in awe of her. i will sit in the stands and cheer her on in life as her most ardent admirer. i know i'll always love her in the same way i know i'll always need oxygen" - finny

"it's all done. finn's story is over. his whole life. that was it. not even nineteen years, and he'll never, ever do anything else ever again. finn won't go off to college or celebrate his birthday. he won't get another hair cut or get the oiled changed in his car. he won't bite a hangnail on his thumb or buy another CD. finn smith has done everything he will ever do. he won't get to be with autumn." - jack

“this baby isn't what's left over from our love story. this baby is our story's continuation.” - autumn

"if only i'd told her that i loved her years ago, i wouldn't be here now." - finny

all in all laura you can pay for my therapy mkay?

cherry valance rant bc GOD cherry hate infuriates the shit out of me i need to let this out

made smth like this before but it was so incoherent lmao, im aiming for this one to be a little better worded/constructed. literally just gonna be a whole rant defending cherry/refuting common counterarguments i see

im being so genuine, can yall tell me a GOOD REASON why you hate cherry. every single reason i hear is so stupid, all of her actions that make her "hated" are incredibly understandable if you had just taken a moment and tried to imagine what it was like given her situation.

a good example would be "she didn't visit johnny in the hospital" :: johnny killed bob: cherrys boyfriend. johnny is her boyfriend's killer. name one person who would wanna go see their partner's killer. and a counterargument to this i see a lot is "johnny defended her against dally" :: which, yeah, maybe that made cherry somewhat like him a little more, but she had never even met him until the drive in. and, i simply believe someone killing your partner outweighs the one good thing that they did for you.

"being rude to ponyboy" :: socs couldnt really be seen with greasers because it would ruin their reputation, and rep is very important to both socs and greasers. i do agree it might've been a bit selfish, but you have to take into consideration the time period and their situation. this also can apply to the scene in the movie where cherry didnt wave back to ponyboy at school. but, cherry explicitly stated that she probably wasn't going to say hi or wave back, and told him not to take it personal because she would if she could: "you're a nice boy and everything, but we just couldnt let our parents see us with you" bringing back my point about reputation being important. she obviously WANTED to talk to him more, but couldnt due to social expectations

cherry disregarding ponyboy's issues by saying "things are rough all over." if you read the parts whenever randy spoke, you'd know this argument is pretty weak. and even then, she wasn't even disregarding them, she just wanted to give pony a sense that he's not alone.

a lot of this just boils down to trying to put yourself in her shoes; you have to understand where she's coming from. i've made this point a couple of times within the paragraphs. she's also only 16.

also, i've seen a lot of people who hate cherry also love dally? .. how are you gonna hate a character who's actions are pretty understandable if you just put yourself in their shoes, but like the character who's does FAR worse things, mostly just for fun (jumping little kids, cheating, drinking, etc.)?? talk about hypocrisy... i feel like this lowkey has some misogynistic undertones too but whatever.

anyway, you dont have to like her. like her, dislike her—whatever, just maybe come up with a good argument

SYBILL TRELAWNEY SYBILL TRELAWNEY OMG I LOVE HER SM !!!! wait ok i'm js gna drop some of my headcanons for u to judge lmao 🤧

i imagine her as having grown up in a lower class family than most of the families, but her family still has some prestige to it, or at least they think they do, so they raise the kids as snobbish. she goes to school with an i'm-better-than-all-of-you mindset but gets bullied for it !! and she literally is a real seer like canonically so idk why people always try to skim over that fact 🤷‍♀️ imo she just got taught by terrible divination teachers who made her think she was having a vision more often than she really did. i think she has a lot of pent up resent, and even if she knew what was going to happen to the marauders and co. she wouldn't speak up, because a) no one would listen to her, and b) they used to bully her !!! unlike snake she doesn't carry this resent onto the next generation, but she's still lowkey a hater and i'm here for it !!!

i have quite a few headcanons for her but i haven’t thought of these ones but i mostly agree. to be honest, i don’t think they would be snobbish. to me, they’re like the opposite. they’re muggles (yes i’m sybill is canonically halfblood but idc) so they don’t necessarily understand sybill, but the try to if you get what i mean? i agree with the terrible divinations teacher part WHOLEheartedly because it just makes so much sense to me that she would struggle to differentiate visions from dreams and stuff like that!! i’m also using the point b to ramble about pebill because i LOVE LOVE LOVE them!! the way i see it, the marauders definitely would bully her or atleast be passive aggressive or amth like that, but eventually peter runs into her a few times (not literally) and kinda opens up to her about random shit that he feels like he cant talk to his friends about and learns that she’s actually quite understanding. i could rant about them for DAYS. i actually planned to write a fic but i haven’t gotten around to it yet

[seokmattchuus]

for junhyeon…. aaa idk to me he’s like a dom fr (but also lowkey a switch :///)

at the very least, the image he likes to portray himself as is the dominant and possessive type. (just today he actually wrote this on fromm "im sorry your boyfriend leaves korea a lot… we're in a long distance relationship. say it. say we're long distance. do it(3x)." and "why are you looking at another man? youre mine anyways you know. youre mine.” (yes, hes more delulu than us))

a part of me feels like he’d rly be into the shy inexperienced or “goody two shoes” girl that he can tease and embarrass. he’d definitely get off on whispering obscene things into your ear in public just to see your flustered reaction. or if youre not dating/just friends hed constantly make innuendos but then tease you for being a pervert if you get flustered by it or point it out.

I just know his ass is a lil devil istg…

for a more specific scenario…. ig seeing your tags made me think of maybe like a study date or smt (?). where youre like a good student with high grades and all (him probably less so). you two having like a group project tgt (or he asked you to help him study for smt and you accepted being the saint you are) so you set up a study date - either at like the library or at one of your homes. hed be making subtle comments/innuendos and enjoying seeing you get distracted and even flustered by them. having to sit close to eo if its at the library, him noticing you get goosebumps when he leans in a bit or even whispers in your ear……….

or maybe a thing where hes like a jock who needs to get better grades to graduate so you help tutoring him but hes not very good at concentrating….

aaa idk i can just personally imagine a scenario where hed enjoy teasing the hell out of someone😶

but I also have an embarrassing amount of fantasies ab this man and would literally eat anything up atp lmao

SO sorry for this rant .-. also im not good with words so idk if this even made sense lmao

What is it with idols being just as delulu as us 😭 It's not good for anyone involved (I'm lying. Idols pls keep doing it <3)

But no this was really good!! I got a good idea of what I want to write now, thank you so much!! 🩵🩵

[golddustdyke]

im starting emdr soon! if you're comfortable, could you share a bit about the effects? i wanna know what i should be preparing myself for and how hopeful i can be that it'll help. i get it if you don't wanna air out this information though

Hi!!! So i've been preparing for it since January I think? And we were supposed to do the actual eye movement part yesterday but my therapist wants my medical records from last year and we've both been trying for months to get them but the hospital hasn't sent them yet lol so we're just waiting for that!

Idk if you're starting the actual eye movement part or you're like. about to start the whole process. but the first part of the process for me was narrowing down what some of my negative cognitions are that impact my life. And then I had to think about where those negative cognitions stemmed from. Like, what memory was attached to it, and it was important that I went all the way to the memory where it first originated. And as my therapist and i were working on that, we were also working on creating a Safe Space for me. So, I had to envision a place in mind while meditating. And for a month I had to practice going there every day in my mind. This is a safety precaution so if I ever get triggered after emdr, I can go to safe space in my mind without actually having to go to a physical place.

As for what you should prepare yourself for? A lot of emotions will be upturned. For me, it's emotions and starting a few days ago, blocked out memories that are being upturned. I feel like I've been hit by a bus lol. I don't think I've ever been in this much pain in my life and this is coming from someone who was in psychosis last year and it was truly a horrific experience.

But there's also relief that I've never felt before throughout every traumatic memory being exposed. Things are clicking into place. I'm understanding why I made certain choices or believed certain things and said certain words. And though it's incredibly painful and it lowkey feels like my insides are dying, there's a part that just. feels okay for the first time since I was 3 years old. because i'm finally getting the truth that's been evading me. i'm finally feeling the darkness that's been haunting me and i'm seeing it for what it is.

so i think basically what i'm saying is that. i think you should prepare to be in pain. or experience hurt. or feel not great. but through that comes something really beautiful and healing. you'll see things for what they were and not the destructive belief that you developed about yourself or the world. I'm constantly being hit with memory after memory i had blocked out and they're the most horrible things i've ever experienced and they are things that no person should ever have to go through. Going through these things as a kid made me believe i was dirty and bad and disgusting and worthless and i didn't deserve love or to be helped. but with every upturned memory, i see how untrue that is. because with each memory, i see the truth. i was a little kid. and i was a really great one. and the truth is worth this pain. and then with emdr, we'll be replacing these negative cognitions with better ones; with the truth. So, that I'm not dirty and I'm not at fault and I'm not evil, etc. So it'll be even more healing.

sorry for the rant lmao but i wish you all the best! feel free to send more questions!

[theserenityinviolence]

Shameless. It's bloody amazing.

You know what I really love about this show?

Character fucking depth.

Hear me out.

So let's take Mandy for example, she was You deserve this and that and you're so nice and sweet and blah blah

But she also,,, tried killing Karen??? And they're relationship was lowkey toxic??? (Lip and Mandy, which I honestly will be a supporter of till the end of time regardless of anything)

Speaking of,

even Karen, for example,

I'll admit I was a little skeptical when they first added her, but she grew on me. Loved her and Lip. Until her dad went and fucked up and she moved on to make THE worst decisions she could from then on.

Then we have the most controversial topic ever.. Debbie. Honestly, for me it's a love-hate thing but I don't want the Debbie cult after me I shall leave this as such.

Then we have Carl, did all his drugs and guns and gang shit and ends up a.. police officer? A clean police officer?! See what I mean?

I'm not saying he was a bad person, but he could have just as easily ended up with drug ties while in the po-po.

Then of course, Lip,

Our beloved nerdy, alcoholic south-side blond with anger issues. We all know how he fucked up the list is too much to get into for me, and yet, he, out of all of them,

he ends up being healthy and shit with a loving partner and a kid?

See what I mean?!

CHARACTER

DEPTH.

Now I mean, I'm not defending anything any of them did,

it's just, this damn show just puts such realistic but dramatically diabolical scenarios that lowkey make you feel better about yourself, and it does all this without even obnoxiously romanticizing things.

(except Frank. With every ounce of my being, Fuck you Frank. Nobody likes Frank.)

They're also so inclusive without being unnecessarily overbearing?!

And the casting is just perfect??

I do not think anyone is actually going to see this but uh if someone does,

thank you for listening to me rant??? Lmao Idk if you made it this far this is just awkward bro

[sheisbeautyweareworldass]

the inheritance games trilogy final thoughts:

after pulling two all-nighters - for each of the first two books - and learning to manage my time and adding some sleeping hours in-between my tfg reading, i finished my second murder/mystery trilogy that i had no idea involved murder or mystery of the year… i should start reading synopsis 🫡

i’m gonna start off with my biggest issue and easiest thing to rant about lmao, keep an eye out for spoilers

so, here’s my thing with love triangles: if you aren’t going to do you best with it, than maybe it’s better to scrap that idea off instead of half-assing it. i think it was okay in the first book - i even said here how i found myself looking forward those scenes and eating it up - but i feel like everything went down in the second book. to start, i genuinely believe the “who’s avery gonna end with” was answered halfway through that book and everyone kinda knew that, what made the persistence of that topic in the third book annoying and useless.

also, it severely harmed grayson’s arc imo. with avery and james dating, gray was out of the picture except when it came to jameson feeling jealous and making avery angst - in order words: he existed only to help develop their relationship. but saying that was his only purpose in the last book is wrong, because he was keeping his distance from avery, the logical choice was to glue him to eve’s side and bring up his trauma and feelings for emily at every scene he appeared. i also think the whole gray/avery thing got no closure…? there’s not really a moment where they both talk about their feelings for each other to each other, just a loooot of repressing until the very last page of the book.

i think what i want to say is that choosing jameson so soon felt quite… lazy? like. he was the “obvious” choice from the beginning so i thought we would have to work a little bit more to get there, but nah, two kisses and we were already there. pair this with what i said above about the lack of true romantic confrontation between avery and grayson and you can see why i think the author choose the quickest way to the easiest road (which is not to say she didn’t make the right choice, i just don’t like the way it was given to me)

sometimes it felt like the author was really pushing the love triangle agenda when it didn’t even made sense/matched the tone of the story?? i would probably have eaten it up in 2013 but i don’t think the world needs another two-brothers-falling-in-love-for-the-same-girl-for-second-time-in-a-way-that-would-make-you-think-they-share-the-same-type-but-they-really-don’t-since-the-first-girl-was-a-cunt-and-the-second-one-is-an-angel story when that spot is forever taken by tvd.

now, about the characters:

i really don’t have much to say 😭 i wasn’t head over heels for anyone and i also wasn’t in the murder mode for anyone (well, maybe for vincent blake’s misogynistic ass and i wouldn’t say no to punching skye in the face). avery is a good main character, the hawthorne brothers are all nice - xander is probably my favorite, if i’d to pick one. libby 100% deserves more pages, as did max. alisa is a good character to have in a book because she’s easy to bring out doubts at the readers (is she trustworthy, is she a threat, is she selfish, is she telling the truth). oren is the goat and i’m surprised avery didn’t end the book by mentioning how he’s lowkey a father figure to her. i think thea and rebecca were written very bidimensional- thea’s a girl boss, rebecca doesn’t think she’s enough, they’re in love, the end.

about the riddles:

definitely not obvious. comparing to the mysteries in tgggtm, for example, i think they were way harder to decipher. i think the only ones i beforehand were toby being adopted, toby not being avery’s biological dad and liam not being just some random dude and bring somehow related to toby’s abduction 😭 tobias hawthorne’s final explanation that he chose avery to inherit everything because he could deal with her dying as a consequence of his actions but couldn’t risk any of the boys suffering with it made sense and i think it was the most reasonable motive.

[cheldardo]

long ass rant about IRL friendships and how i suck at them but I'm kinda getting better at them (i think?, i hope)

no need to read if u don't want to :3

making friends irl is impossible for me, i have really bad luck with it and i feel like i get stuck with people i don't wanna be with

and i never got the chance to learn how to make friends at school, my mom forced me to hang around people i disliked and people who would literally give me nightmares about themselves and even after telling her about it and pleading to stop she kept forcing me to hang out with them

in middleschool i was just lowkey bullied and it got so bad back then I'm impressed i made it through

highschool was fine but by that point it felt like everyone had figured out how to make friends while i still knew nothing

and now at uni I'm trying to meet people but it's the third semester now and everyone's got a friend group already

I'm trying to put myself out there more and i think it's maybe just now starting to work, had a fun interaction with this guy sitting next to me on the computer lab

ended up showing him my plushie model after he saw me using blender with so much ease (it's not a blender class, the computers just have it installed already) and his expression was of genuine shock before he said to himself "... un furro..." (furro is a funny way we adapted furry to sound more spanish) he was chill about it tho i think he just wasn't expecting to meet a furry that day LMAO

i think i should make it clear that i don't feel lonely right now, i have soooo many wonderful online friends whose friendships are infinitely more genuine than anything I've felt before, and that's what's special to me about online friendships, I'm 100% myself on the internet and hell i even met my boyfriend late into middleschool through DeviantArt and we're still happy with each other

but i would be lying if i said it's sad to not have anyone to go to the movies with and that i was only invited to a party once in middleschool by someone i didn't know at all (it also made me panic really bad when i got invited because it had never happened before)

[max-ranpoeceo]

small rant on the dazai anon because i just found out about this and it makes me giggle (my opinion on it :3)

im giggling so much the dazai anon is so funny

like i genuinely feel the same way about characters. jealous and angry towards those who have bonds with them, uncontrollable anger towards those who mischaracterize and baby them. but its all been very lowkey and mainly because im autistic. i will admit its very unhealthy. it has caused me physical and emotional pain, but thats not important to this.

while i will say i get it, i will also say she has gone way too far. though from what i can see, shes quite similar to me in this kind of state of mind. i do recommend therapy and finding healthy coping mechanisms for her.

my obsessions with characters (such as undertale characters, authors and bsd characters) have never helped me positively aside from giving me something to connect to and vent through. overall, however, it has never made anything better.

i do fear that if i hadnt caught myself and stopped, i might have turned out like her

anyways, this rant has gone on too long. ive probably contradicted myself multiple times in this lmao

good day❗

-max <3

[starjxsung]

hi star i hope you’re well 💕

Sorry but this is gonna be a rant-y message 😞 i hope that’s ok don’t feel obligated to read or respond - you creating this safe space is enough 🫶🫶🫶

atp im so done with the whole South Africa guy situation

the last three weeks he’s made me feel nothing but anxiety, worry, uncertainty, and worthlessness and I’m so over it.

He went back to fucking ghosting me again?! it’s like he hoped that after my trip i forgot about what he did right before and like things are fine like no fricken way dude

It’s sad cause I thought he was a decent guy but ig not lmao

anyways, Im moved on/moving on

using zootopia to escape (zootopia fan art to be posted/posted 🫣) the shitty headspace I’m in (also lowkey losing it after spending so much time with my family i love them but argh)

Anyways, i hope life is treating you super duper well cause you deserve it and more 💖

🌱 anon

:(((( I didn’t even realize there was a follow-up update and I’m so sad it’s so shitty :((( I am so so so sorry my baby you didn’t deserve any of the shit he put you through. There’s such an epidemic of men just using people and tearing them down under this guise of “not knowing what they want” and it’s so unfortunate he led you on for so long. Has he reached out again at all? If he does pls tell him to stay as far from me as possible bc I will BEATTTT HIS FUCKING ASS ONGGGGGG HE IS A LEWSERRRRRRR

I hope you’re finding ways to distract yourself in your free time (ZOOTOPIA BESTTT MOVIE BTW) and I have no doubt that eventually you’ll find the person you truly do deserve :’) I love you so so much. This is just the beginning of finding someone much better.

💓🫶❤️

[shdwtouch]

I think we had a talk once and you were absolutely lovely about it. After all my experiences with people who claimed to be easy to discuss with things, or claimed to be open to be educated, and weren’t and instead got mad or offended at ME for trying to? I was admittedly a bit nervous when you popped up. However! I learned very quickly it was all for naught!

1000000/10, you are genuine and lovely!!!! And I know you very much mean that post! You are awesome!

okay but I am pretty sure I remember the exact occasion you mention. I was so goddamn nervous, let me tell you. but you were so... chill and kind about it, it made it so easy to be chill and kind back. like, I remember recounting the whole thing to my therapist afterwards and she was just like, it's amazing what you can achieve when you communicate like an adult human being. and I don't think she was wrong ! I feel like it just goes to prove what approaching things with a cool head and a genuine desire to improve / learn can do for you.

plus, I genuinely did value what you had to say and did genuinely want to be educated, to learn from my mistake, in that instance. like, I don't know if my it was my overall regard for you that made me take a step back and be like, I value them and their input over whatever I was getting out of the mistake, and I don't want to lose this person over that. I did something wrong, if I can fix it I want to, and at the very least I'm going to hear them out.

I'm not saying its easy, cuz it isn't. it is hard to talk to people, especially when it comes to issues and problem solving. no one likes being told they are wrong. no one likes admitting they were wrong. humans are prideful beings ! but for me, its like. I can't grow if I don't know. I can't change if I don't know. if I genuinely did something wrong, I want to be able to improve myself, to fix my mistake or oversight. it fucking sucks sitting and wondering if I did something wrong ! I just want to be the best I can be, honestly. and honestly, I would feel pretty bad if I lost a friend or partner over something that could be fixed, that was better off fixed.

cuz I'm also of the mind, if its a problem to you then it may be a problem to someone else. which means someone else may come along and see the thing you decided not to communicate with me about and judge me for that, and then also decide to not to communicate with me about it. if its a genuine problem then it will bother more than just you, so it makes it worthwhile to bring it up, if not so you can interact with that person (because its valid not to give someone a chance in that case, though they still deserve to know to improve), but so others feel safe / comfortable interacting with them once they've learned their lesson and fixed the problem.

which also leads to the excellent if understated point that often seems shunned by most roleplayers (lowkey salt lmao) that people are allowed to make mistakes, they are allowed to learn from them, and they are allowed to change for the better ! but I feel like this is turning into a lowkey rant / overexplanation so I'll cut it here.

anyway. I appreciate you sending this message ! I feel like its a testimonial to my character, which I appreciate. cuz its genuinely the vibe I try to maintain and put forward. I'm also forever grateful we were able to talk then, I really do respect you and your views, as well as the insight and information you share with the RPC regarding the indigenous community, indigenous culture, and indigenous representation. I told you then and I'll repeat it now, but I will always happily sit at your feet (as well as of other indigenous roleplayers) and listen, ready to learn.

thank you so much for this, truly. ; w ;

[witchmd13]

You know…I’m not totally ignorant or oblivious and I see the issues that pop up in the show and do see why people discuss it and think many of these issues should of course be discussed, but sometimes it’s disheartening when there is such a flush of negativity towards gilmore girls. Specifically certain opinions of rory, lorelai, luke, etc. I was two when the show started and my mom loved it so it has always been a part of my life and something I rewatch with my mom all the time. I just love and get so much comfort from it. Sorry for the rant.

I'm sorry it took me too long to answer this.

Don't worry about ranting. It's totally okay. Feel free to rant in my ask anytime you want <3

yeah i totally agree. Gilmore girls has LOTS of problems, but most of these problems, if not all, are a reflection of the time period it was made in (lowkey cant believe i just called the 2000s a time period lmao but anyway). what i think people watching the show fail to understand is that was how everything on tv was, and not only tv but music and magazines. It was everywhere. I still have issues from the causal fatphobia and homophobia of the time. TV has come a long way since then, i think that's why people find it hard to process how something like the problematic remarks on GG made it to tv.

I watched the show from season 3 and after as it was coming out. I was too young for the first couple of seasons but i remember my mom watching it so clearly. i watched it mainly with her because she liked it and i loved rory. when i think of the positive effect rory had on me as a kid, i almost can't process it. I remember going through a phase where i drove my parents crazy because i wanted to go to harvard too (literally on the other side of the planet for me lol). I read the books she talked about and i wanted to do better in school to be like her. I don't rememeber any other cool "nerdy" girl on tv like rory at the time. Every other smart girl on tv seemed to be in need to change during the course of the story. Rory was pretty and smart and listened to music and she cared about her apperance to a certain extent and had a boyfriend. She was the cool smart girl. I dont think people nowadays understand the impact she had on us at the time, even with all her flaws.

This needs its own seprate post, but as long as we're talking about it, i think people take the show a little too seriously. These are not real people, they're charcaters who have flaws and make mistakes, and they grow so much throughout the series (sometimes durning the same epispde the flaw is shown) a fact that drivese insane when i read some criticism of the characters. For example, I've seen someone critisize how lorelai is controling of rory in the episode emily makes rory go golfing with richard, a flaw lorelai literally overcomes by the end of the episode. It's criticism for criticism sake sometimes.

Sorry for the long post. Apparently i needed to rant too lol

[wikiangela]

oh my god I forgot what day it is and that new she-hulk episode is out 😂😂

episode 8 spoilers! (it's kinda long sns haha)

oh shit they showed the "specimen" guy in the previously on 😳 oh no is he involved too? 😂

btw why isn't there an option to skip recap in she-hulk? 😂

who the fuck is leapfrog lmao

as soon as I read the description (I caught a glimpse, I can't help it lol) I just knew it was Luke

I don't particularly like Luke tbh 😂 it's a lowkey very cliché character, and he's kinda doing too much to be funny? idk 😂 he's not a bad character, just far from fave haha

wait, is Matt gonna represent Luke????? is that how they're gonna meet???

OH MY GOD IT'S HIM

MATTHEW!!! HOW I MISSED YOU 😍

did I hear that right? no more Sokovia Accords?? oh hell yeah, that's what's up 💪💪💪

I'm just so excited to see Matt again, I'm loving it so much (also, when do we get to see him as daredevil because I'm sure we saw that in the trailer lol)

also, why is Luke making his suits now? I loved Melvin, don't tell me he's not in this universe 😢😂

"a hunch" lmao

"secret double life of Matt Murdock" oh if you only knew 😂😂 it's hilarious actually 😂😂

I just love him so much, I can't get over finally seeing him in the mcu (for more than one short scene in nwh which was my highlight of the movie right after Andrew lol)

aww Jen's into Matt?? I mean, can we blame her? everyone's into Matt 😍😂😂

they have a nice chemistry tbh, I could see it 😂😂

Oof, pls take Todd off my screen 😂 god that guy's cringe (the "Wakanda forever"... yeah that made me uncomfortable too, Jen)

he did not say "but whatever" 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ oh my god I'm getting pissed off now 😂 why is he here? this better pay off lol

she's gonna wear the suit??? oh my this is an exciting episode 😂

IT'S THE DEVIL OF HELL'S KITCHEN BABY!!!

I'm loving the fight and the banter, it's so good

God it was easy for her to find out who he is 😂😂 tbf she is a hulk 😂

oh, Leapfrog kidnapped Luke? now it makes sense 😂 because Matt wouldn't go after him if he didn't do crime haha I honestly didn't think the frog guy could be any danger because he's just a dumb rich guy but oh well 😂😂

the fact that Jen doesn't know who daredevil is 😂😂 he really is a local NYC (or even just Hell's Kitchen) hero, huh - or rather a vigilante haha

does Leapfrog have any powers or just a supersuit with cool functions? 😂 if no powers, why frogs, man? 😂😂

I don't remember ever seeing Matt laugh in his daredevil suit, at least not like this 😂 god, they have good chemistry 😂 tho Charlie Cox can have good chemistry with anyone tbh (except one person but that's on her not him and that's not a rant for this show lol iykyk 😂)

I love their banter so much, can I get a show of just them two teaming up pls?? 😂 😂 they're so funny and again, the chemistry is there and it's so good

Matt taking down the goons - so daredevil, missed it so much

and she-hulk smash!!! YAAAS QUEEN

"big fan of legal dramas" Matt's hilarious as always 😂😂

"this guy's really kinda doing it for me" yuh, we know, he's doing it for all of us, Jen 😂😂 (seriously, if they didn't live on opposite sides of the country I really could see it 👀)

oh yes, I knew it, they gonna fuuuuck! yas, get it Jen!!! (I'm sorry, I'm loving this so much, they'd be such a good match, seriously 😂😂)

the cut to Matt just walking in his dd suit, shoes in hand, was so fucking funny 😂😂

that's what I'm saying, so much happened, it really does feel like this is where the episode would end, and there's still a few minutes left, what more is gonna happen??

I love the fourth-wall breaks because Jen's voicing all my thoughts 😂😂 I'm so confused 🤣🤣

Both Jen and Nikkk look amazing 😍🥵

what's up with Todd's involvement in this episode? 😂 why put so much focus on that?

the fact that it has to be FEMALE lawyer of the year is just pissing me off but I'm aware that's how the world works unfortunately - obviously she wouldn't win a "lawyer of the year" because she's a woman so it has to be female 🙄🙄

oh shit Intelligencia?! oh my god fucking Josh 😡😡

shit she's angry

aaand that was their plan wasn't it....

is she out of control? omg she lost control didn't she...

oh my god I can't wait for the finale

this was hands down my fave episode

MATT WAS HERE!! I just loved seeing him again, he was so cool and he felt like himself, and he fit in so well with the show (I was worried how they were gonna portray him in the mcu but so far I like it - it might have felt a bit different because I haven't seen dd in a whe and also because it's a comedy so it has a different feel)

I mentioned it like 5 times but Matt and Jen had such good chemistry and banter, I loved all their conversations, and again, I can see it 👀👀 like, I ship it tbh haha

I don't think I mentioned that I loved Jen's suit, it looks so cool, loved it

I'm still confused as to why Todd and Wakandan spear were in here, what was that little plot about? I hope it pays off somehow lol

and I loved the fourth-wall break at the end when Jen was equally confused as me as to why the episode wasn't ending hahaha

now I know they purposely made her mad and now I'm worried and I'm just so excited for the finale 😍😍 can't wait!!!

—MAKE YOU SAY “OH” EXTRAS: TINDER

extra meaning non-canonical occurrence; can be placed anywhere in the “make you say oh” timeline after couple (cha. 14) and before the final “oh”. 

pairing—corpse husband x f!reader warnings—tinder profiles, tw: men, swearing.  word count—2.6k. format— written. ─── ❥ req by nonnie​:  y/n makes a youtube vid/live stream where she's just swiping through her tinder acc and corpse literally blocks her lmao

author’s note—akldsljfs this was such a funny idea i could not not write it lmao

ultimate masterlist. myso masterlist

You have pulled the biggest brain move by setting up both a facecam and a screen recorder on your phone. All is beautifully displayed and visible during the stream. Your fanbase is particularly intrigued on what exactly are you planning on doing today, seeing as your tweet of “strea” had been a bit vague, if not downright ominous. No emojis. No elaboration. You couldn’t even be bothered to finish the word. Truly, a mystery. Everyone tuned in and are currently waiting with bated breath.

A few of your fans must sense upcoming doom because the overall mood in the chat turns from optimistically intrigued to...evil. It’s an entity all on it’s own now, clawing at you through the screen with various renditions of laughter and devil emojis. A few eggplants thrown in there for good measure, accompanied, naturally, by the scandalous water drops. At first the common consensus is that you’re biting the bullet and going through your camera roll on stream. Definitely an idea worth considering, though you frankly don’t know what lies at the start of the 11k photograph journey, and you are afraid to check in public. Could be a harmless meme, could be a salacious pic you had saved of an OF star. It’s really a gamble. Either way, you would definitely get banned. You might still get banned. Why do you insist on doing shit like this?

Because it’s funny. Because you’re kinda stupid. Because it’s just so absolutely laughably easy to do.

A smile quirks your lips, and while it is not explicitly smug, the look in your eyes sure is, “Greetings,” You utter lowly, dimming the lights--the budget for this stream! Ugh, you went all out, “my children.”

mother i crave violence

sensing evil energy rn!!

i do not claim the energy in this video for myself or anyone else watching this 💖💖

^with peace and love shut the fuck up

“I know y’all lowkey hoes-” Upon your words the chat splits into two: one side eagerly agrees (even shares a few OF accounts! How helpful, supporting small businesses!), whilst the other feverishly insists on innocence. You make a face stuck somewhere between offended and bewildered, “Now c'mon now-I know you. I know you all. We’re the same, don’t-what was that?”

You try to scroll back to the comment but it’s loss in the sea of incoming messages, “I swear to God I just saw-”

Corpse_Husband: i love late night streams it’s not like i have anything better to do.

“COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORPSE!!!!” 

rip headphone users

i cant feel my face when im with you by the weeknd but instead of face its my fucking ears

yall think full vol on pc is better?my parents woke up 😭😭😭😭

To think he’s spending his last waking moments for today with watching you (he probably still would have anyway, because you do not posses an ounce of shame or self-control and pester him relentlessly)! It makes your heart sing, and suddenly, a traitorous, fun hating idea barges it’s way through the crowd of incoherent buzzing and states: don’t do this. For some reason it also has the voice of Rae. As if that would work in guilt-tripping you- Rae never succeed, and her fictitious rendition in mind won’t fare much better either.

Still, you thought about it. That must count for something. Corpse will understand, won’t he? Why don’t you want to upset it in the first place? Men look so funny when they lose their shit, like hello, don’t you have anything better to do? But the image of Corpse just sitting there, hurt, distraught, leaving you on seen because he’s in his sad boy hours leaves a sour taste in your mouth. 

queen rly went from  🥺😊 to 😕 u ok bbgirl?

Corpse_Husband: no pouts cutie

akjdjoeijdfse cUTIE??? deadass boutta r.i.p.

Well that succeeded in eliminating everything from mind, doubts included. If this was an anime, the scenery would shift into something roseate, with flowers and bubbles and sparkles all around you along with a halo or two. Alas, not an anime, rather reality. The led-lights, however, seemingly possessing a will of their own, slowly turn from deep violet to pink. You smile brightly, like the absolute dumbass you are, and you are met with a ray of heart and blushing emojis. You are just so cute, a real cutie! Still in your disguise adorable state, you swipe your finger on your phone screen, the grin never leaving your lips.

There, among the plethora of apps, nestled sits a red square with a white fire plastered on it. The delicate calligraphy on the bottom reads: TINDER.

The mood changes once again- you’re giving the roaches emotional instability by how quickly everything flips over- and the chat spams eggplants vigorously; some, of course, bravely fight against the thirst.

nooooooo i thought y/n is gonna stream in a god honoring way!!!

^pack it up girl defined

“So, Charlie and I-” You note a few awfully curious comments and squint, “-yes, we talk a lot. Charlie is a really good friend of mine. We’re best friends. Brothers. Sisters. Cousins. The whole fucking family tree-no, that sounds weird. Delete. Anyway, Charlie, being the absolute fucker he is, said, hey, you know what would be funny? And I was like, nooo, what would be funny, Charlie? And he says to me, he says, says, making fun of men on Tinder. And if y’all need any more proof that Charlie and I are platonic soulmates, then dunno, my children, my roaches, I dunno-I dunno what more to give you.”

You can’t be bothered reading the comments, there’s too damn many. You also need to save your reading comprehension for the actual bios. It has a time limit, that darn thing. 

“Okay, so I made a profile earlier, but I hadn’t swiped on anyone yet-” Despite the fact, Tinder helpfully informs you that already 99+ people have swiped right on you, “So, this is me,” You show the pictures you have of yourself, and damn, not to be a conceited narcissist, but you look really good. Like if you saw yourself on Tinder, you’d super like instantly. “Uhm, so, my bio-my bio says: let’s sauce in the tub together, ya dig? splishy splashy, giggle giggle.” 

i cant believe we are witnessing y/n trying to form a coherent sentence live 

shes trying give her time

ya dig??? y not capeesh

what scene from the godfather is this lol?

“My anthem, is,” You laugh, covering your lips with your hand, “Corpsie, this is form you-” Proudly, you show that indeed, Corpse’s E-GIRLS ARE RUINING MY FUCKING LIFE is listed as your anthem on Spotify, “Hehe.” Yes, you say that aloud.

Corpse_Husband: you’re killing me Corpse_Husband: thanks baby Corpse_Husband: now delete tinder ❤︎

You ignore his last quip, deciding it’s finally time to get this show on the road, “Right, let’s do this shit. I’m not actually going to swipe on any guys that look, uh, decent? Yuck, can’t believe I just said that, uhm, because I-because I feel like some actually deserve a chance with someone? I don’t wanna get anyone’s hopes up, as I am currently in a long distance relationship with Chrollo. So I’m just gonna swipe on, like, frat boy assholes. Because I don’t care if I hurt their feelings. Quite frankly I don’t think they possess them in the first place.”

The chat voices their agreements. With the ground rules set, you, giddy, click on the first profile.

Does Tinder know what you’re doing, your plan? The FBI agent watching you through your phone must be working overtime, bless his heart. They must, because the the first guy to meet you is named Jason, and there he is, blond hair and blue eyes, holding up a fish the size of his torso. Marginally adequate in looks, pretty good muscles. A solid 7 bordering on 8. He’s the same age as you, 15 miles away, and he studies at some college you don’t care enough to look up. Bio reads:

I like to drive fast. Fishing is my passion, but if you can’t catch me by the ocean, you’ll catch me catching waves, bro! Love a good gym date. You do squats, and I’ll keep a close eye to make sure you’re doing it correctly ;) You probably saw me at a party. Leader of the The Phi Kappa Psi. I’m a Gemini, if that matters lol.

You, of course, read it aloud, dramatically; provide some constructive criticism-he seems nice, but he’s a Gemini, so naturally, you can’t trust him at all! Also, that gym date session leaves little to be desired. With your rant done, you swipe right, and shocker! (not), it’s an instant match.

“Okie, I still wanna swipe of some profiles, so I’ll see what he’ll text later-” For a second you wonder the legalities of this stream, but you’re having too much fun to think of it further, “guys, I won't get sued, right?”

NOW she considers it

well....

if you do, we’ll kickstart your lawyer dw <3

Onto the next profile. Kevin, 25, is seen fixing his car- or, you assume he’s mid-fixing it, you don’t really know why else he’d hold a wrench and be covered in oil. He’s shirtless, and the caveman part of your brain echoes something closely resembling AWOOOGA!, but...but!...blonde hair, blue eyes. You pout again, “I don’t...I don’t really like blond boys, ya know? With the blue eyes and all, it’s just not my thing, uhm, unless it’s like-like...Armin from Attack on Titan. Else I don’t care.”

Onto the bio:

You have to treat a car like you treat a woman: go on long rides, take the lead, but most importantly, keep her oiled up 😜 

“What the fuck did I just read?”

The chat is equally confused. You swipe right anyway- another match. Too easy.

The stream continues without incident for a solid thirty minutes- all of your matches, expect a few that genuinely looked like normal dudes that really couldn’t write a decent bio to save their lives, had been blond hair blue eyed gym rats with ranging forms of misogyny. Some opened with asking for nudes out right, some asked about your day first before asking for nudes. You prefer the former. Straight to the point! You admire the gall. 

But then, down the forty-five minute mark a profile popped up that made you still by your phone, your smile dying as your eyes bulged. Dear God. Lord in heaven. Who is this demonspiit lookalike and why is he so fucking hot? The neck tats, the skateboard, the clothes- holy shit, you gotta close your mouth before some drool dribbles out.

No bio, just his name, Tyler, and that he’s 23.

“He boutta be 23 in me.” You mutter, swiping right with lightning speed.

WHAT DID SHE SAYYYYY?????????

tyler is y/ns karma for relentlessly mocking that one guy that had a whole ass list on what his “female” partner should be

^he deserved it and also tyler seems like a typical fuckboi y/n grow a braincell

look at mom 🥺 her eyes are sparkling

It wasn’t a match right away. You somehow expected as much, but it still upset you. Simp behavior, pathetic. The stream continued bravely, and when Tyler messaged you a simple “yo” you totally didn’t sequel. You didn’t manage to text him back on stream: texting all those guys that you didn’t really find all that attractive was easy, but this...You’re a sucker for a man who radiates red flag energy. His whole profile is a red flag. He might just be a red flag himself.

What can you do? Suddenly becoming color blind is not easy. Once the stream ends, you unmatch with everyone expect Tyler. He you chat with for a bit, but a sudden craving for different company makes you abandon him, too. You don’t feel too heartbroken for him- you’re certain there’s already too many girls in his dms. You wish them luck.

Happily, you delete Tinder. You go to Twitter, notice you’re trending again- look at you go! Queen shit- and as you compose a thank you tweet, something strange happens. You go to text Corpse, but when you click on his profile you grow cold.

YOU’RE BLOCKED. You can’t follow or see @/Corpse_Husband ‘s Tweets. 

...Pardon? You hop onto Instragram and-also blocked. Seriously? And you thought you’re one petty bitch. Corpse is seriously prissy about everything. Damn, if he didn’t like your stream, he could’ve just said so. Didn’t need to, like, block you from his internet existence. So not cool.

You try texting him but no text go through. Well how will you let him know you deleted Tinder just like he asked? You relieve your frustrations by punching your pillow a few times. Later, you apologize to her, you didn’t mean to hurt her, it’s not her, it’s you. Fuck, 5 minutes of exile and you’re already loosing your mind.

“Raeeeeeeeeeeee!” You whine loudly. It’s roughly 2am now, but you don’t care. You’re too heartbroken to care. There’s a thump from her room, but nothing else, “Raeeeeeeeee!!!” You wail, wallowing in self-pity on your bed. You hear a very loud, very annoyed sigh from her room, followed by angry marching. Your door is abruptly thrown open, and in the dim, colorful light you see her scowl.

“What?” She grits.

“Can you please tell Corpse to unblock me from everything?”

“What did you do now?”

“I made fun of men on Tinder.”

She pauses, “...That doesn’t sound so bad.” She surmises, voice laced with suspicion, “What else?”

“...There was one really hot guy that I kinda sorta talked to after--”

“Y/n.”

“-But I totally deleted Tinder and honestly he was pretty boring, so, like, uhm, please?”

She sighs, the servery of which implies she is holding the weight of the world on her shoulders, and instantly you know that you won. She taps away at her phone, “You owe me one.” She states, and before you can reply, she exits your room and slams the door behind her.

Grinning, you text his phone again. The message goes through, oh gosh, you’re so relieved you feel like crying. This has been, officially, the worst five minutes of your life.

You Y DID U BLOCK ME LOSER!!! MAJOR LOSER ALERT!! I DELETED EVERYTHING IT WAS A JOKE r u still mad at me? y u always mad at me i never do anything:(

my husband You’re my baby, how do you think I’ll react when I see you publicly simping for some asshole on Tinder?

Oh no, he used the words, he delivered the killing blow. You’re finished. Your heart can’t take such a workout. 

Not that you would ever admit it to him, though!

You hehe ur jellyyyy u always dis jealous hehe?

my husband Not jealous.

Yeah, you might not be the brightest tool in the shed, but even you know that’s a lie. You send him an array of kissy emojis that he doesn’t have the decency to reply to. Then, completely unprompted and dead serious, you send him a simple voice memo, saying: “You really have nothing to worry about, you know? You’re my favorite, Corpsie.”

He responds via text, reiterating that he’s not fucking jealous and that he just doesn’t like when you show such outward interest in anyone but it’s not like he cares or anything. It’s just really, like, weeeeird to see his baby simping for another man like that totally ruins the whole dynamic!!! It was only natural that he should block you on every social media platform, including his personal number (which, like, was completely necessary! Doesn’t matter that his viewers can’t see it, it’s gotta be super believable!), and inform his followers of that, because it’s all a joke, like, for the dynamic, that Youtube grind, you know? Ya dig? No personal feelings were involved at all. He totally wasn’t upset that you found someone else cute, no way!

my husband I’m not jealous. Lol.

You ik u repeated tht like 50 times  u trynna convince me or??? lmao

my husband No comment. ...You don’t actually talk to anyone else like we’re talking, right?

You no one else calls me their baby if thts wat ur wondering at least not to my knowledge lol im all urs

my husband That makes me very happy to hear:)

Yeah, it makes you very happy, too.

hope you liked it!! xx
