I truly sacrificed to create this ridiculous mug. biting clay is a bad sensory experience š who would have guessed
Iām tempted not to glaze the bite marks so it looks like it was bitten through the glaze lmao
I showed this to my husband and he said he wants four mugs like this in various states of eaten, so he can swap when no oneās looking and make it look like heās actually eating it.

IMPORTANT!!
Please beware of scams!! Apparently thereās been this scam going around of people telling you they have āaccidentallyā mass reported you account and that you will have to contact someone to appeal this so you wonāt lose your account. THIS IS ALL FAKE!!! They will ask for your account information and log into it, then change your password and lock you out of it. They will also ask you for money. I was a victim of this, but luckily I caught it before it was too late and managed to contact support. If the scammers get into your account, they will start following and DMing people trying to scam them as well. Please be very careful!!! If you get any DM with āare you busy?ā or ācan you talk?ā from random people, block them ASAP.
Stay safe, loves! Please repost to bring awareness !!

On a balcony of a cleared building after a false alarm. Everythingās dying down and the pair go out for fresh air, well Johnny goes out for air, Simon followed.
Soap: Ya know ghost, on the chopper ride here I remembered when I was a wee ladā16 or soāI dreamed of running offāmy familyās great but⦠people were just too much for me back then, had the need to get away, see what I could in this life.
Ghost: Guess we have more in common then, Sargent.
Soap: Really? Gosh canāt even imagine you beingā¦small. Bet yer mamā¦ah, sorry forget itās aā¦sorry.
Ghost: I get it, harsh home lifeās a foreign concept to someone who had a decent one⦠couldnāt imagine wanting to leave it..
Soap, jolting up a bit: Ah didnāt wanna leave! It was a dumb passing thought when things got too quietā
Ghost: Iām not judging, Johnny. Finish what you started, you brought this up for a reason, get to it.
Soap: ā¦well, when I would think about it Iād imagine what Iād pack, what Iād write in letters, fucks sake i imagined sleeping on the streetsā it was harsh but in the dream it felt freeing andāand liberating, didnāt ave to do anything but survive.
Soap: I had the need to leave everyone behind, said to myself Iād come back someday andāI had such a romanticize delusion of what homelessness would be. Itās stupid.
Ghost: You ever get that feeling now?
Soap: ā¦Honestly, Simon. Yes.
Ghost: Cause of anyone in particular?
Soap: Yesā¦
Ghost: cause of me�
Soap: yes but Iā
Ghost: Well then.
Simonās lean on the railing rose to a proper stand with a slight grunt
Ghost tensely: Iāll get price to approve your vacation request within the week, and you can go off and be homeless by a bloody trash fireā
Soap: Simon I meantā god I know this is sappy but
With a reluctant groan he rubbed his face and stared at the floor as he confessed
Soap: I meant I think about you coming with me.
Soap: I meantā¦I think about us going off grid and building a cabin or whateverā¦fishingā¦just the necessities and usā¦I think about it a lot. Too bloody much., I imagine a life together and I know itās the military then death for ya and Iām pretty sure itāll be the same fer me cause it means I get to do this with ya. Thatās sappy sorry I justā
Simon: Iāll get price to approve our time off request.
Johnny: ā¦
Simon: Itās either killed in action or off grid with you. So over the weekend we could look for a decent placement for a hypothetical cabin.
Johnny: Sir are you trying to get proposed to?
Simon smiling: Not particularly but I wouldnāt mind.

Gaz holding up a piece of paper saying āIām wearing a wireā: Hey ghost, nice weather aye? Whatās your favorite thing about soap.
Ghost: That heās my boyfriend.
Soap, outraged, appearing right behind Kyle: For fucks sake you canāt say ONE nice thing to me about me ?!
Ghost: I can but they aināt meant for your ears.

Heated Rivalry (TV) detailed timeline
So I'm maybe just a liiiiiiittle obsessive, and I wanted to work out the timeline of the show, and figured I'd share it with you all. I can't quite figure out how to format this for tumblr, so I'm going to just c&p images of the tables and then dump all of it in unformatted text I guess under a read more? Please let me know if you can think of a better way for me to do this (without retyping it all!) and please let me know if you see any errors to be corrected.
ETA: I'm sorry, I added some info to ep 6 after rewatching and somehow deleted the table for ep 5? But it's back now!
Bonus: season calendar pics that are not accurate (since the

One of my biggest literary pet peeves is when historical or history-inspired fiction pretends that "courting" is a synonym for "dating". Usually it's just a one-to-one word swap--in a modern context, these characters would be dating, but this is olden times, so they call it courting instead. Sometimes they'll pretend there's a shade of difference, and that courting is a more serious exploration of marriage or something. But I read a lot of fiction that was actually written during these historical eras, and the word "courting" is never used like that.
Two people do not decide that they are "courting". One person decides to "court" someone else. It's an action, not a stage in the relationship. A man decides to court a woman because he wants to encourage her to have romantic interest in him. He's trying to win her favor. It's not an exclusive relationship--a woman could be courted by multiple men at once. She'll spend time getting to know the guy who's interested in her, but they won't officially define their relationship as one where they only show romantic interest in each other. If they reach a point where they want it to be exclusive, that's when you propose.
There's no middle ground--either you're getting to know each other, or you're committed to marrying each other. This idea of a period where you kind of commit to each other until you decide you definitely want to get married is a modern one, and it occurs in eras where they use the word "dating" to describe it. The closest equivalent I can think of are times and places where they'd talk about a couple "stepping out together", but they're still not calling it "courting". Words have meaning, and the word "courting" has never meant that, so stop using it that way!
the other mild historical disjoint i run into is when people talk about dating in the fifties like it automatically meant exclusivity. the whole reason we have the expression "going steady" is because the default was to or "go around with" or "go out with" multiple people. not in the sense of being in a stable polyamorous vee, but in the sense that archie is actively "seeing" both betty and veronica during the entire time the two girls are competing for his attention and they're both seeing other guys to make him jealous, and nobody involved considers this "cheating."
bizarrely, America has in many ways gotten more conservative about dating since World War II.
I ran into a truly wild cultural misunderstanding with my father some years ago, when I had to explain to him what āhookup cultureā actually was, and that the thing he assumed it was was actually what we call ācruising cultureā. His response was āhow is that different from dating?ā and when I explained how it was different, he said, and please note that this a direct quote: āThatās ridiculous! You canāt expect a woman to stop fooling around with other guys for anything less than a marriage proposal. I mean, sheās not a prostitute, you canāt buy her.ā Now obviously thereās like⦠a lot to unpack there, but I think itās pretty darn illustrative of a substantive cultural shift around the assumption of monogamy!
Also, following this, I asked my mom what her thoughts were on the matter, and she said that while she āwouldnāt put it in those termsā she broadly agreed, and thought that anyone expecting any sort of exclusivity when a marriage proposal wasnāt at least on the very immanent horizon was ānuts, honestly.ā I hesitantly asked if she was including relationships with premarital sexual activity in that, and her response was āOf course. I mean, gosh, you know your Aunt Terri used to have a guy for every day of the week before she finally settled down.ā
And this was when I learned, to my shock, that the oft-repeated story of how āAunt Terri used to have a guy for every day of the weekā didnāt just mean āAunt Terri had a full dance cardā but rather meant that Aunt Terri had a period of her life where she literally dated exactly seven guys at once, all of whom she was sleeping with (or, my mom was quick to disclaim, āwell, fooling around with, I donāt know how far she actually went with any of them, but they were definitely all fooling around behind closed doorsā), on a literal weekly rotation. Like, they had a schedule. A schedule that all seven of the guys knew.
America has gotten a lot more conservative about dating, actually.
