Special interests : Watcher Entertainment / Buzzfeed Unsolved + Art
Pronouns : It/They
Hello ! Welcome to my blog. 90% of this is reblogging random shit I find funny, important, or that is related to my special interests and current hyperfixation
Not much else to say truly, just here to have a good time ^^
I won't go through the whole list of DNI's, but PLEASE DNI if you are against Watcher in any way. Even if you are a current fan, if you post any heavy criticisms of them constantly, please pass over my blog. ^^; While Watcher isn't free from all criticisms, they are all human after all, the constant negative posting is not what I'm here for ! I'm here to have a good time, and consume media that makes me happy.
That's all I have to say, tags listed below are what I will (try) to tag different posts under.

Imagine visiting a video rental store in the 80s or 90s and pulling a VHS off the shelf to get inspiration for an rpf fanwork. For our August retreat we're inviting creators to travel back in time and pull inspiration from their favorite older movies.
We'll provide a letterboxd list to kickstart your ideas and a collaborative spotify playlist full of 80s and 90s music to set the mood! Our discord will also have bots to help motivate you with writing sprints and timers and a themed planner you can download to track your progress all weekend!
Note: Your August creations do not have to be from our list of movies or an AU at all. These ideas are there as prompts and to make a fun vibe for the weekend. You can work on any rpf fanworks, all genres and types, during the retreat.
More server faq and link to join in our discord in our pinned post. Must be 18+ to join - thank you!

What is a creator's retreat?
It's a multi-day event where you can create fanworks from wherever you are in the world with other creators. You can also choose to be as active as you want by participating in any or all of the days. Write for one day. Or draw all three days. The choice is yours!
Do I have to be writing to participate?
We welcome all creators - not just writers! You can be drawing, editing videos, making gifs, or recording podfics! But some of the guides and prompts for the event will be geared towards writers specifically so some tips might not apply to everyone.
Do I have to start something new?
Not at all! Dig out any rpf WIPs that you want to work on or need an extra push to finish.
Do we post our works during these dates?
This is not a requirement and there is no pressure to do so. This event is just about making progress creating something - fics, art, podfic, gifsets, etc. By the end of the weekend if you've completed something that you want to post that's great and the mods will happily share it once it's published! Please tag us in anything that the server helped you create so we can share it!
Will the event be for youtuber rpf only?
You are welcome to write for any rpf ships during the retreat but there will be lots of attention on Shyan, Standrew, Phan, etc. The server is open to all rpf but these are the most popular right now. We can make channels for other ships if they are requested.
What do I get for participating in the retreat?
Everyone who participates will get a custom server role and badge you can share! You'll also (hopefully) get to make progress on a new fanwork to post for everyone in your fandom to enjoy!
Please save and share this info where possible. This report has since been removed by Amnesty International due to legal threats of libel from JK Rowling. This information is no longer easily accessible.
Anyway shoutout to John Williams, amazing composer and probably the one who made the other 50% of "holy shit amazing" soundtracks (Jurassic Park, Star Wars, Superman, and incidentally the original Harry Potter theme and score) who famously worked closely with the first openly transgender woman to be nominated for an Academy Award, Angela Morley. He respected her, and so far as I can see, has never made transphobic remarks.
On Saturday I said to my partner, as I have said for months, "A ten thousand dollar a year raise would solve so many of my problems."
As of this morning I was reluctantly looking for jobs because I love my job and don't want to leave it, but see: $10k raise problem solver.
As of noon today this was no longer an issue, because my boss called me with the news that I was getting a $10K merit raise.
I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. This is roughly $200 extra per paycheck. Enough to pay off debt faster, rebuild my savings, and spend a weekend a month in Milwaukee getting obscenely laid. The sex I'm going to have on $200 extra per paycheck. You can't even.
May all of you get the $10K raise your soul has yearned for. And whatever level of sex you can be satisfied with for $200.
When faced between shaving his mustache off for a Disney audition (because the character he was auditioning for was in college), or keeping it to film Weird and/or Wonderful World (because he had committed to having matching mustaches with Shane), Ryan chose to keep the godawful stash and thereby flunk the audition.
Never mind the fact that it was his dream to get into Disney. Ryan said he still chose Shane (and Watcher) because he made a commitment about facial hair with his best friend.
