John's insecurity and fear of Paul abandoning and no longer loving him really reared it's ugly head when Paul wrote Yesterday and people started talking about whether this meant Paul would go solo. It's true that part of why John and Paul's partnership worked out is because they could be competitive with each other—but it encouraged and inspired rather than threatened and smothered. It was relatively healthy.
John hated the song, and I don't believe it was simply because he was envious. I mean, John was envious of Paul in certain aspects, merely because John had pretty poor self esteem and view of himself to begin with.
I just don't think John's reasoning for hating Yesterday is based on competitive envy as much as it was based on what the song stood for and what it's popularity meant—Paul could do just well without him, Paul didn't need him, everyone could see it even. With the success of Yesterday, there was talk about Paul leaving the band, which in turn meant leaving John.
The song crippled him with this kind of insecurity so much that he even got into rows with Paul over it. There's photographs of it taking place in the dressing room. John was always a complete jerk when it came to this song being performed.
Years, years later, I can understand why John also disliked the song as so many people would attribute the song to the Beatles, as in thinking John himself had a part in creating it like so many of the songs authored by Lennon-McCartney—when it was solely Paul's song.
But this song brought up one of John's biggest gripes, insecurities, and fears, And it was documented for us to read about and even see: Paul would realize he didn't need the band, didn't need their partnership, that he didn't need John.
I was feeling insecure. You might not love me anymore.
1965: On August 1, 1965 Paul performs "Yesterday" on the TV special Blackpool Night Out. During rehearsals before the show, the Beatles entourage watches Paul run through "Yesterday" along with the stage crew. Afterwards John makes a "loud and decidedly sarcastic remark" deriding the song in front of everyone present. Beatles publicist Tony Barrow says the remark "upset Paul for several hours".
“Here are Paul and John sparring in the dressing room following the remark that John made while they were rehearsing for their Blackpool Night Out TV show in August '65.”
“The sparring between John and Paul continued while they were getting ready for the final recording.”
“John and Paul continue their heated discussion with George as piggy-in-the-middle.”
“The two-handed gesture clearly reveals the mood John was in but Ringo and Brian still refused to join the argument.”

𖦹˚𓇼˚‧ Orca and Whale–especially Humpback Whale–are known to have deep hatred towards one another. Ironically i love them both, and i want to make a skin in reverence for those beautiful creatures where they seem to coexist with each other. Blue is my favorite color and i have been in love with ocean so i'm a little bewildered how i didn't make blue/sea theme skin until now lol! Easily this is my personal favorite skin out of all the others that i made.

my ao3 skins masterlist
Tutorial how to activate the skin + the code :
Copy the code i provided in this GitHub, there is a copy button at the top right(•••) of the code box. And here if you prefer Google doc.
Sign to your AO3 account, after that go to "Dashboard".
On your "Dashboard", tap on a section called "Skins".
On the "Skins" page, tap on the button labelled "Create Site Skin".
Give your site skin a unique title, i usually use 2-4 word for the skins that i saved. IF YOUR SKIN NAME IS NOT UNIQUE, YOU CAN'T SAVE THE SKIN.
Paste the codes you copied from my GitHub into the "CSS" box.
When you're done, scroll to the bottom of the page and click a button labelled "Submit". This will save your site skin and take you to a new page where you can see the title of your skin as well as all of the code.
Click "My Site Skin" and you can see the skin are added, press "Use" to activate it.
If the Whale and Orca background image in the right border makes the texts unreadable to you when reading a fic, you can make it smaller by simply find this code ↓
Having a cat that is 10+ is just like.. "are you okay? Why are you acting like that? Why did you throw up? Why did you have diarrhea? Why aren't you pooping? Why don't you like the food you were obsessed with yesterday? What's going on?"

Many Meatballs come out with horrifying news, the meatball race is currently having a financial downpour. Their currency (DRAWINGS AND DOODLES) have plummeted to the floor this spring—the reason being no meatball in the world can currently draw. Leader meatballspiratescore speaks out:
“I have NO art skills. NONE. I can’t draw EVER. This is HORRIBLE and I am PISSED. I am in SHAMBLES. If you do not understand, I CAN ONLY DRAW LIKE ONCE A YEAR. Why? Because IM ASS AT ART. I can only shit out a beautiful drawing once a year. The rest is literal SHIT AND SLOP. I AM ANGRY, ENRAGED, DISGUSTED, YEARNING TO DRAW. This isn’t even sillyposting anymore dawg it’s a CRY for HELP.” (image above is a live image of the interview with meatballspiratescore, also known as MAIA!
