girlboss take: bruce wayne and edward cullen are the same person but one is slightly less stupid

[lambandlion]

When Bella finds out she’s pregnant in BD, she mentions that her last period was 16 days before the wedding (the wedding took place on August 13th 2006) and that at the time of her phonecall with Carlisle (which was 17 days after the wedding) she was 5 days late. She also mentions that her period is never late.

This means that her cycle is 28 days exactly (16+17-5) and that her last period began on July 28th 2006. That was also her last period EVER btw because then she got pregnant and then was immediately changed.

So I counted backwards to every single one of Bella’s periods, from her last one before she changed, to the first one after she moved to Forks. The results:

To elaborate, Bella was on her period:

When she first met Edward at biology class (January 18th 2005)

At the meadow (March 12th) and baseball game (March 13th)

The first time she heard Edward’s voice in NM (January 16th 2006)

When she bought the bikes and she started repairing them with Jake (January 17-18th)

When she and Jacob did homework together and she invited him to the movies (February 14th)

The day she realized Jacob is a werewolf (March 11th)

Quite possibly when she jumped off the cliff, depending on how long it lasts for her (March 16th)

When  Jacob confronted Edward and Bella about the treaty and gave Bella back her motorcycle (April 7th)

When Edward caught Riley’s scent at Bella’s house (June 2nd)

At the Quileute bonfire (June 3rd)

When Jacob went missing in BD (Late June/Early July)

So… yeah that’s what I did today.

“This reads like fanfiction (it feels like it was written by a preteen, and most of such things posted publicly are fanfic)” vs “This reads like fanfiction (it has a focus on character and relationships, like the style of a lot of modern fanfic)” vs “This reads like fanfiction (it keeps referencing people and events with the assumption that the audience is already familiar with them, like how fanfic doesn’t need to rehash the source material)”

[pomrania]

Some further suggestions from the notes:

“This reads like fanfiction (it’s a love story for the ages as long as you can overlook that the author keeps misspelling ‘you're’)” vs “This reads like fanfiction (you can tell the author was having a blast writing this and now so do you reading it)” vs “This reads like fanfiction (the author is clearly info-dumping about a very niche hobby of theirs that they’re passionate about)” vs “This reads like fanfiction (the characters keep getting put in increasingly weirder situations which you’d normally only find in fanfic)” vs “This reads like fanfiction (the author felt the need to rehash the characters from when they were first introduced instead of after several years’ worth of character growth)” vs “This reads like fanfiction (it feels like it had no editor)”

Friends come and go. Relationships end. That edgy character you latched onto at age 12 is forever

when i forget what alkaline compound is used in traditional soap making and the soap ghost shows up to remind me

[sailermoon]

be careful with what series you watch/read during emotional points in your life because they will forever contain a ghost of your past self within it now

do you guys ever like forget you’re interested in something until you start engaging with it again and you go “oh wait i’m like crazy crazy about this yeah”

[hoahoahoahoahoa]

Okay but how fun would it be if Bella’s clumsiness and bad luck was not only a danger to herself but to others too

Like yeah yeah we got her accidentally hitting Mike with a volleyball in the first movie but I want a running gag where it’s like “thank god she only ever hangs out with indestructible immortals.” If Edward wasn’t impervious he’d have been seriously maimed/burned/crushed/stabbed fifty times over within the first six months of them dating.

She turns around in the kitchen while holding a knife not realizing he’s behind her, and if he were human she’d have just gutted him, but as it is his shirt is the only casualty. You know she’s hit him with her truck at least 3x; Edward laughs it off but one time he doesn’t have time to smooth the bumper out before Charlie gets home, so they have to make up a story. Etc.

These are some of the only times Edward is happy about being a vampire. Forget bulletproof, he’s Bellaproof. Instead of receiving life-threatening injuries he just gets to see Bella’s adorable mortified blushing every time the universe tries to half-assedly Final Destination him for associating with her

Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.

If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.

Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.

Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.

I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.

Writers: It's asking to read your Google Docs and be able to 'summarize' things from them and such things. I just turned all mine off.

[last-starry-sky]

Because this isn't mentioned above, also go to google.com/drive/settings and turn off all the annoying bits that interface directly with docs there.

This is all in the "privacy" tab of your settings. How fun that everything is hidden two layers deep. 🙄 This DOESN'T get rid of the stupid little star constantly asking you to use it, unfortunately, but that's what the picker in ublock is for. 😉
