Hot (sometimes) Mess (always)

23. Teacher. What am I doing with my life.

[drainedmug]

So I ended up down a bit of a rabbit hole on tumblr today. And I scrolled through my ex’s tumblr. Because I like found a post he made that I liked and I was like huh I wonder if he ever deleted his tumblr and it turns out that a)he did not and b)bitch is still active. I spent five years on a rollercoaster with that boy. He was shitty and abusive but also the first great love of my life and I sorted through a lot of childhood baggage with him. But I spent too long being unhappy with him because I thought it was as good as it gets. He’s living with the girl he dated at the tail end of our relationship. And he seems like the same person that I waited to get their shit together for five years. But he seems happy. And a lot has happened since I left him. I had a whole girlfriend. I became a badass in my career. I ended my relationship with my mother. I bought a new car on my own. I lost my dad to cancer. And I maybe even have started to actually fall in love with someone again. The point is that I am happier than I ever was when I was with “the love of my life” The point is also that I don’t need tumblr anymore. So I’m done here now.

Me when a straight person doesn’t understand the concept of the post but tries to be included

i’m watching an art theft documentary and they’re interviewing this art history professor from new york who was asked to go with the fbi to authenticate a rubens that had been stolen but it was a sting operation so they had to pretend like they weren’t the fbi, that they were some private buyer about to pay $3.5 million for it, and the fbi was like “this is a VERY delicate operation because you never know how they will react to what you have to say so let the agent do all of the talking, don’t say a word to anyone just nod if it’s the rubens, the last operation we did the guy in your position got shot because things went wrong in a second” and then it cuts to the professor’s interview and he says “i wasn’t going to fly down to miami to be a part of an undercover fbi sting operation to handle what could be rubens’s aurora and just NOT say anything. i was gonna have to ad lib a little” and then he tells the interviewer that when he & the fbi agent got to the hotel while he was examining the painting he started lecturing the other people, first on how badly they had wrapped it, and then about like how it had been painted, the history of it, what the subject was and what she was doing, etc etc, and he was like “i hadn’t taught a class on rubens in 15 years, so for me it was like being back in the classroom except my students couldn’t leave” 

[darlingsterns]

at one point during the deal the professor turned to the woman selling it and he said “isn’t this just the most beautiful rubens you’ve ever seen outside of a museum?” (because the fbi had told him earlier that this piece had been stolen from a museum) and THEN he said “where on earth did you get it from?” and the group of people the woman had with her was like taxidermy-fox.png but the woman was like “inheritance” can you IMAGINE the fbi agent about to have a fucking aneurysm when this random guy you’ve brought in just to nod if it’s the right painting not only starts giving an impromptu lecture but then he asks how they got it

miscommunication as a plot device makes me angry

if you just talked to each other but no

[squirrelstone]

on the one hand i agree with this but on the other hand one of my coworkers rented an alpaca from a petting zoo and brought it to work because my boss said she wanted an alpaca sweater but the guy didn’t hear her say sweater and didn’t want to upset her by asking why the fuck she’d want an alpaca

[libraryoftheancients]

I think that highlights a good genre difference: miscommunication in drama is frustrating, overused, and just kinda shit. Miscommunication in comedy is fucking hilarious.

i read an article once that tried to “analyze” why so many people hate anne hathaway. i think the reason is because she’s a woman who sticks up for herself and stands up against sexism

Good morning to everyone except the cop that made Karamo stop his car in Queer Eye as a joke and literally terrified him and the other four making them think he was getting racially profiled

[crossinggalaxies]

Agreed but also fuck the show producer who thought that was clever, because you know he did not just find them traveling down a road. Someone thought that was a good idea in the writers room.

[eldritch-anxiety-deactivated201]

Important things to note:

Jonathan had his phone out to record in case something went wrong and they needed proof of what happened

Tan and Karamo both almost quit on the spot

It was planned for Bobby to be driving, but Karamo insisted on driving

N o t s c r i p t e d they were legitimately scared

Also either way it wasn’t a good idea regardless so don’t make excuses for it??

Also they found a maga hat and found other pro trump signs in his house later + that conversation between Karamo and cory in the car was super forced and uncomfortable

Tldr fuck that episode 🙃

[ispepsiokaysir-deactivated20220]

Honestly you explained this better than I ever could, I don’t want this dismissed as “oh but it was a joke” because a black man in the south terrified to be pulled over by a cop and then having to be friendly with a pro trump cop is not funny at all to me.
