Finally, the REAL official story
This begs the question about why no other journalists were willing to state the facts of this case despite the mountain of evidence proving that these allegations against Hammer were complete fabrications invented to hurt him in the worst possible way by his petty, vindictive ex-wife.

Air mail was still rather exotic in the 1940s. In this picture, postal service officials and spectators turned out to witness a Sikorsky helicopter as it landed at the 23rd Street Skyport, January 6, 1947. It was the first shuttle flight carrying air mail from La Guardia Field. Two helicopters made six trips each between the airport and the skyport.

So now we know.
Ironically, in tying up his loose ends, Armie Hammer has finally released us from the limbo state that has held us captive for two long years.
Tumblr media
I feel like a genie freshly uncorked from a bottle.

Anyone who has put in the hard work in order be able to tell his truth and to live his life authentically, and now can now show us that he’s ready to forge a new path forward, deserves any and all chances at redemption.
While it might seem counterintuitive, this is great news to me, since all I just ever wanted from this sad situation was to KNOW SOMETHING, anything, from Armie’s side of the story, after years of getting only side, and only partially, at that, and mostly hyperbole and chronic bullsh*t for internet fame and attention, from extraordinarily biased sources.
And just to clarify: Armie Hammer has not been charged with any crimes, unless you can count being an asshole as a crime.
I think this is the closest we’ll get to knowing the whole truth but that’s fine with me.
It feels good to breathe again.

whats it like being a coordinator? im way more on the battle side of stuff myself so itd b fun 2 hear abt ur experiences ^v^ -@frozenflmes
mail received! thank you for the letter ♡
i had to think long and hard about this question, haha. personally i can only speak to my experience as a sinnohan super contest coordinator but i have been competing since i was seven years old, so experience i certainly do have! i think there’s often a false perception that contests are a “softer” form of pokémon training and that definitely couldn’t be further from the truth!
being a coordinator, especially a full-time aspiring career coordinator like i was, is a lot. i just recently decided to take a break from the stage, and what i can say is that being a coordinator can be both incredible and wonderful but also brutally exhausting and stressful. there’s just so much that goes into coordinating: there are the big things that most people know, like training and teaching your pokemon moves and stage presence that will complement their skills and shine in the category they compete in, but there’s so much more. there’s poffin baking, pokemon grooming, ball capsule customization, costume design, and that’s just to name some of the fields that top coordinators should be proficient in.
don’t get me wrong, there are tons of positives to being a coordinator (i wouldn’t have competed so long or so fiercely otherwise)! it really brings out a trainer’s creative side, and it truly is a wonderful way to train and bond with your pokémon. there’s really nothing like being on stage with your pokémon shining like stars in front of the judges, knowing all the care and love and work you put into getting there :)
there are definitely pitfalls to the field, though, especially if you get high up in the ranks like i did. the public appearances, the fierce competitive atmosphere, the rigorous training… all together it can be very overwhelming. i’m aware that sinnoh has a very intense and fierce contest scene compared to other regions, though, so please don’t take my experiences as a blanket statement on every contest scene :) i definitely don’t want to discourage anyone from ever trying their hand at coordinating!
tldr: being a pokémon coordinator is hard work, but it can be an amazing way to grow and bond with your pokémon, as well as inspiring creativity and innovation in trainers. i highly recommend trying it out casually at least once just for fun!
thanks again for the question!
