Okay can I just say how proud I am of Zach, Eugene, and Keith??
Like going from this
the absolute worst moment of their careers. Feeling depressed, angry, betrayed. Not knowing what the future looked like.
To this
They're happy. They know it's not the end of second try. They're so excited for what's to come!!!!!
And after watching both the what happens next video and the live Without A Recipe, I just feel like such a proud fan. Like they've pushed forward, they're starting to make more content that makes them happy, and they're shinning brighter than ever!! I mean they almost hit 7 million viewers on the without a recipe stream!!!! They're crushing it!!! I've had a smile on my face for hours because of them and I'm just so happy for them and I can't wait to see what they're gonna do
It's not that I'm mad at Iran for retaliating against Israel. It's the fact that it seems like they're faking them out or some shit? And they're just giving Biden a reason to give Israel more weapons that they'd just use against Palestine.
Then a repeat of what happened in 2016 will happen where a traitor who would be much worse for Palestine.
And like... Fuck, man. This started when I was grocery shopping and I didn't know about it until I got back a few minutes ago. I probably missed a lot of things.
All i can really hope for is that Iran will help get Israel a new leader with this attack.
I hate how in school growing up, the meanest teachers were always the art teachers. They would always get so fucking rude and judgemental if you weren't good enough at certain mediums. I was always being told that I "didn't try" or "didn't put in enough effort" whenever I wasn't good at certain things or ever didn't do a perfect job. The most judgemental and condescending teachers were always at teachers. Or music. Music was even worse. The music teachers would always get extremely mad at me because I was hard of hearing and had trouble distinguishing notes and stuff. They really hated me. Once I was in high school and could opt-out of most art classes I just stopped.
I've had bad teachers in other classes, but the art teachers were the most consistently rude. Always telling me how little effort I put because they couldn't believe that I was so bad. Especially at realistic stuff. Always telling me I wasn't even trying. Usually wouldn't even get that bad grades either, I just wasn't up to anyone's standards.
Endos are mostly children, and it shows. You want to demedicalize a disorder so that your “wilogenic” or “demo” roleplay nonsense seems more legit? You want to mock traumatized people who want to be taken seriously? Really? Has it never occurred to you that if a disorder (which DID and OSDD very clearly are) is not generally seen as a disorder, then it will be hard for people who need help to get it. I’ve been trying to apply for government assistance shit and I was told that I’ll probably be denied because of my age and because I have a dissociative disorder. There is already so much fucking misinformation about dissociative disorders because they aren’t as common as like general anxiety and depression. Its not a field a lot of people specialize in. Trying to pretend that being a system is “friends in your head” or anything purely voluntary or something fun is a mockery. Pretending that this is similar to being transgender is a mockery. Shut the fuck up and stop acting like your role play is valid.
Last night I had to uninstall and reinstall my Sims 3 games, because I couldn’t open my fucking game, and I was already have issues with my mods and CC not showing up! But game is working, but my mods and CC are still not showing up! I might mess with it today because I can’t play without Mods and CC.
It's fine if people don't think Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson are together in 2021. For me, it's impossible to refute. Keep reading if you want my ranting, rambling opinion. :)
I believe they got together at some point during X-Factor--likely super early on and have never NOT been together. Between the lyrics, the clothing, the queer coding, the hints, the bread crumbs left all over the place, personally I find it impossible to imagine that they aren't *still* together. You only need to look past the party line published for the general public to see the truth.
It's not a conspiracy. Honestly, it's right there in front of our salads.
The denials were weak at best back then. They were so young that the heart eyes were completely impossible for them to hide. You can literally watch them fall in love if you look at the old videos.
I've been reading comments on YouTube and stan Twitter for a while. Even more than the insistence they aren't together, it's increasingly frustrating (and I've only been here a short time) to see the insistence people have that H & L are straight. I don't care if you don't think they are together. I understand it's hard not to see them in the same room interacting. But no interaction either of them have had with women (stunts/beards whatever you want to call them) compares to the tactile behavior and sexual tension they had with each other.
It is so clear that they aren't straight--rainbows and triangles in videos. gender neutral song lyrics. nods to gay-inspired clothing labels. quoting songs lyrics by gay and trans musicians. supporting and promoting queer bands. dancing and waving pride flags. wearing the trans flag colors. jewelry and clothing and art work that are explicitly queer. nail polish and eye makeup. literally saying "Larry" in cover songs. wearing their hearts (or a giant H in Louis' case) on their literal shirts. gender neutral clothing. wearing dresses and pearls and a penis necklace. carrying a purse. Obviously none of these things are explicitly queer, but taken together as a whole--it points to a very compelling picture.
I *know* everyone thinks Harry has said he's unlabeled. (In reality, he said that he wasn't willing to share how he labels himself, which doesn't mean he doesn't have one, but I digress.) Please understand that he's closeted for the general public. He literally cannot tell you how he identifies because he doesn't want to lie, and he literally cannot say he's not straight.
Please watch and read and listen to these men. THEY. ARE. CLOSETED. Whether by choice or by circumstance or by contract. It doesn't matter. In 2021, this is the truth. The general public doesn't see the hints, they aren't paying close attention. The general public only sees the headlines. But H&L can hint to the fandom. They can speak through actions and clothing and hints. They cannot tell you in words. We need to know how to listen to them. They are being extremely loud, and have been for a decade.
Someday they may be able to be out and proud. I wish that for them. But the reality is that they don't believe this is the right time, and we need to trust them. They know what they are doing and what is best for themselves. We need to trust they are making the decision together, and that their lives and careers are intertwined.
This got rambling and long, and I'm sorry about that.
Happy Pride to all, closeted or out. You're seen, and you're loved.
Ya know, I get that villain ships and making bad guys sympathetic doesn't work for a lot of people, and that's cool, that's your line. But the MCU is so entirely constructed from protagonist centered morality at this point, that I always roll my eyes just a little in that specific context. Like there is no internal consistency to how people's choices and backgrounds play into their narratively endorsed moral status. The very laws of this universe state that if someone is the protagonist they are Good unless the voice of the author loudly declares otherwise, so why should fic be any different?
