you want a new kind of guy, fine, i raise you: the lady i was briefly roommates with in college who once smoked a blunt at a party and then spent an hour confessing earnestly to me that she genuinely preferred reading detailed episode recaps over actually watching the tv show in question

#she sounded so remorseful & i just stood staring like an anthropologist watching their phd thesis spontaneously manifest before their eyes #apparently she would watch the pilot episode to get a feel for the characters #and then just read a bunch of recaps & episode reviews instead of watching future episodes. what fresh steaming hell #this conversation took place like a year and a half after we were roommates btw. i had seen her maybe twice in that time period #i thought she was a standard frat girl but then 18 months later she appears in the wild grass to reveal unhinged character background to me #and i'm just standing there nodding feeling like i missed a weird opportunity i did not want or ask for #honestly thought i was the weirdest person in that apartment situation but now i'm wondering what our other 2 roommates were hiding #not my strangest college experience at ALL but like. definitely top 20 #this wasn't the same person as Aquarium Girl btw but oddly enough they were roommates actually #(not at the same time that Recaps Lady and i were roommates but at different intervals idk) #anyway i probably should have interviewed at more than one apartment before taking over a sublease but summer sess is a weird time u know #oh and this happened in Hong Kong btw

Phil: Doin' a lot of traveling around the New Years. Oh boy, oof. Oh golly, oh gee. But it should be worth it! It should be really good. I'm looking forward to it, Kristin's looking forward to it.

Random Chatter: What about Tallulah and Chayanne?

Phil: I told them already what's going on. I already told them. They already know when I'm getting back and all that stuff, so.

Random Chatter: The cookies though?

Phil: [Shrugs] So? I'm... physically not here? [Laughs] There's more things - there's more important things in life than feeding a virtual egg cookies, I'm sorry to say, dude. [Laughs]

Random Chatter: Get Tubbo to feed eggs cookies.

Phil: [Laughs and mimics the chatter in an annoying voice] "Get this person!" "Get that person!" ALSO IGNORING THOSE PEOPLE ALSO HAVE LIVES! Jesus Christ. That says a lot about what you think of your streamer. Oh my god, dude. Let them have a fcking week off man! Let the Eggs have a week off, you kidding me? They're people, too, they're admins!

Random Chatter: The eggs need to live.

Phil: They do! By having a week off! [Laughs] Leave them alone! Holy fck! Good lord... If I- if- Dude. If anyone in my chat is genuinely like gonna come into stream, and like - be pissed off that different members of QSMP are just not logging in, I'm banning you on the spot, 'cuz that is so fcking toxically online of you. That is SO chronically online of you. You need to take a break, and I'm giving you that break. I'm forcing you to take a break from your PC. Fckin' get up from the - look away from the screen.

#Philza #Phil #QSMP #For real though it's WILD that some people genuinely have that mentality #People forget that the ccs need breaks and so do the Eggs! #many of whom are in college #and hell even if they weren't #they still need a break! #Plus it's the holidays #Context for this conversation in case it wasn't clear: Phil was talking about leaving for the holidays and said others will be too #and some random chatters got annoying spamming about the Eggs and saying they'll die #I didn't catch this live but I'm watching the VOD #Idk. QSMP is almost a year old and people still get worried about the same stupid stuff #''The eggs are gonna die! No one will take care of this specific Egg unless I spam their name in chat 100000 times!'' #''Nobody cares about my fave and clearly I know better than actual members of the server'' #Like. c'mon man be serious #Everyone loves the Eggs #I feel like a lot of fans really do need to unplug and remember that it's not that serious #and this is coming from someone who bawled their eyes out at Bobby's death #real ass people's lives matter more. Let them take a break #Q's said so many times that they Eggs matter and he wouldn't just kill them all off for the hell of it #anyhoo #December 25 2023 #Q #Subtitles #Edited

I feel like in media it’s very typical to see characters in a high school setting and then their life magically works out and they go to their dream school or there’s a time jump and we see them fresh out of college. And those stories are important because of course it’s normal to struggle in high school (and hey that’s the target audience). But what I love about Nancy Drew, is we get to see what happens after high school and from the perspective of someone who doesn’t have things “magically workout”. We get to see a “high school burnout”; someone who had all of these hopes and dreams and plans, only for life to not turn out the way they expected. We see her struggle with grief and mental health. We see her figuring out who this person is that she has become and accepting that her identity and her worth aren’t tied to those plans she had for herself. And it’s SO refreshing to see because it’s such a real experience and struggle that people face (myself included).

Furthermore, the same can be said for the other members of the Drew Crew as well. We see characters who all are dealing with their own hardships and trauma all of which have some part that is deeply relatable. We see experiences like not living up to parents’ expectations, relationship trauma, having to take on too much responsibility from a young age, a desire to have a family, learning self-forgiveness, and figuring out what one’s purpose is (and so much more). The show starts with a group of people who started out not where they thought they would be in life and we get to see them grow and develop through their experiences with one another and figure out this crazy thing called life.

#through experiences with death lmfao #this leads to another conversation on the importance of allowing characters #and especially female leads TO BE COMPLEX AND IMPERFECT #like please give us more shows about people who are college age I beg of you #not a lot of people talk about the struggles of figuring out who you are after high school #and the writing definitely lacks at time (looking at you season 4) but I love my Drew crew #found family #and growing together #cw nancy drew #nancy drew #ndcw #ndcentral #nancy drew cw #drew crew #high school burnout affectionately #I’m just quoting an ep from season 2

FYI just want people to know that the abbreviation of Omegaverse with and without the slashes is a very real world derogatory slur that has been hurled towards Indigenous Aboriginal Australians for centuries. I obviously understand not everyone is fully aware of Australia's history of institutionalized racism, genocide of traditional land owners and the stolen generation etc., but seeing the Omegaverse abbreviation everywhere is genuinely frustrating especially when people are ignorant to the actual serious implications of the word when put into a different cultural context.

EDIT: it should be noted that is also frustrating that people outside of Australia don't really know much about it's racist history (which is no fault of their own, hell even my education on Australian history back in primary school was abysmal and never mentioned the countless genocides the English settlers caused on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people during colonization), but that's a whole other wider conversation - and even then you should be looking for Indigenous Aboriginal Australian and Torres Strait Islander Voices if you want learn about Australia's history.

#i'm pretty sure aboriginal australians in fandom have been saying this for YEARS but obviously people ignore them #due to fandom racism or just plain ignorant that fandom isn't an america only thing. #racism tw #auspol #omegaverse #ok to reblog #if it looks and sounds like a slur it most likely is one! #omegaverse tw #added edit because i realise that it's also frustrating that people outside Australia don't really know about said country's racist history #obviously thats part of a wider conversation of history education and how we should learn more about other countries in school #i get university and college cover that but people don't know that until their either go to uni or find out that info about other countries #through endless wikipedia article searches #this also doesn't even cover how people are actively re-writing or whitewashing history in educational settings #to push a specific (usually conservative alt right) agenda

consider: mad genius who's also a very kind and lonely old man

actually adores children and connects with them better than most people because they are both openly candid, creative and curious

struggles with the asexual conundrum of wanting a spouse and offspring but ultimately Sucking So Much Ass at building intimacy with another person he skipped that part altogether and mad scienced his way into a family

#talking to the wall #wd gaster #gaster #thats him right there alright #sighs. thinking of him #might delete later? #just in case i get embarrassed of saying words shfjdfhdj #definitely illustration material though #college has just been taking a real toll on me in regards to art ⚰️ #cannot wait to draw his date attempts #they all pretty much boil down to that one family guy clip #who the fuck starts a conversation like that I Just Sat Down #this is a very important man. #a very important smart man. #a very important creepy; inappropriately honest; forward to a fault; impossibly and intimidatingly smart old man. #who may or may not have made a few visits to the mental hospital in order to make sure he's not a danger to himself in his manic spikes #if there is such thing in the underground #“ok pops timeout yeah? you're very on fire. literally.”

Most of the time I’m fine being a person who never fits in. A person who never gets the newest trends or watches the cool new videos or has the latest apps or clothes or knows every popular song artist the radio plays into oblivion

But sometimes it feels very isolating

#I’ve always been this way #and I’m cool with that #I can tell you the entire backstories of multiple links #but I can’t tell you about the newest pop album #or what actor is considered cool at the moment #or god forbid the latest tik tok trend #but the people at my college have literally urged that I look up stuff I haven’t seen on the internet #and my siblings seem to know all that stuff #and I’m just sitting there like ….ok then #guess I’m out of this conversation #bleh #sorry I’m just struggling today #it’s been a week #vent #delete later

Ganymede tells Percy he has to go on a fetch quest before Ganymede will write him a letter of recommendation for New Rome University and with a cartoon sound effect Percy turns into a 2d version of himself whose head turns red and starts swelling and when it pops instead of a steam sound effect it’s just Walker Scobell screaming as loud as he can into a mic for ten seconds straight

#mads posts #Percy jackson #pjo #riordanverse #walker scobell #LET THE BOY REST #Percy hears he has to do THREE fetch quests to get into Uni and he sits down with annabeth and has a genuine and serious conversation over #whether he really wants or needs to go to college #gaynemede tells him abt the goblet and percy attacks him without hesitation. wins. Poseidon appears like ‘congratulations Perseus you are no #now the cupbearer of the gods!!’ and percy just sits down and stares at a wall for the next century #Percy asks Clarisse to impersonate her dad and write him a letter and clarisse is so curious if it’ll work that she does it. it works #Percy just goes a pantheon over and asks the house of life magicians to write him letters bc they’re Technically also gods and it work #he has OPTIONS is what I’m saying

She's my roommate and if she were absent for days or were having a medical problem, I would have gladly sent the answers to her and helped her

But the thing is nobody is sick and she has attended all the classes. I made my notes in question answer form, sat hours on the laptop to make flashcards and mock questions for practice and even answered it. Now she wants them all because I am done with all the material.

Like it would actually just take the same time as me to make your own answers instead of copying it of me. If I wouldn't have done it, she wouldn't have bothered with me at all for it.

The thing is I feel annoyed when people do, because I sacrifice outings and many social activities just so I can study, and prepare for classes because I have dance classes and practice to attend too

And then see another person who will spend classes talking to every other person, getting up late etc. She studies yes and can even score better than me sure.

But I hate to see my hardwork be used when you were in perfect health and were present all the time, but chose to spend the remaining time roaming around after class.

And the material is really easy, like just make answers from the damn slides.

#samridhi speaks #I still shared the notion link but it isn't working #sure this might not seem very samridhi like but idk I like to help when it is actually required and not when you roam around #places to places #yes go enjoy college make new friends I am all for it but not at the cost of doing less work and expecting the ones who put in effort to #serve it all to you #and I actually give out notes but not my answers and shit like I worked hard spending late nights #reduced my conversation time with friends and family to not have anybody else while being in perfect state copy off it

How exactly did it happen? Firstly I got inspired from college Emerald and RWBY College AU in general by Soundwave3591. Then I added something of myself to Emerald's appearance, like this cool varsity jacket and these cute Converse-like sneakers. And then I gave her lab partner an edgy look with this sassy t-shirt.

Casual RWBY villains? In casual setting? Yes, please. More casual, please.

This drawing is almost a year old too... Right, I wanted to make it as an example for the new price list, just before planning to open commissions last year. Which didn't happen, obviously. And what's more obvious is that I need more excuses to draw Emerald. I love her, after all.

While I, conceptually, understand that Americans worry about college and start worrying about college really fucking early, I am... still doubtful about just how pressing the "We won't have money for college" conversation was.

Like, Sklonda, dear, love, babygirl, your son literally just walked through the door after having saved the world and tomorrow is only the first day of 11th grade. I feel like this conversation could have waited at the very least until he had some fucking sleep, a real meal and got home tomorrow. Let my boy sleep and rest. Please.

#Riz Gukgak #Sklonda Gukgak #I mean I can't be SURE because to me #this is a conversation that has like. over a year time still #ain't nobody worrying about college until the middle of the final year around here??? #but I know Americans are a different breed there #due to how utterly unreal their educational system is #but also like WHY do they even need college. what for #they saved the world like TRICE before graduating high school #what's college gonna teach them like lol what #I'm unsure how 'adventuring college' makes any sense #in a world where teenagers walk around saving said world on the regular #Fantasy High Junior Year #FHJY Spoilers
