okay i know they are canonically obsessed with each other but. the song is in some ways about feeling like you’re failing in your relationship and being not quite as obsessed with them as they maybe are with you, and in this video of them talking about being a tandem, there is the slightest pause before swayman answers “do you miss him?” that makes me want to probe a wound. we’re not talking irl reasons of how that’s an absurd question (how do you miss him. you’re coworkers you’re seeing each other all the time) we’re talking that maybe this whole goalies-in-love thing got blown out of proportion and now swayman’s having to buy into the bit too hard. linus loves it & everyone’s asking about their bromance & how they love each other so much and the thing is—linus is safe. he’s got a wife and plausible deniability and jeremy? jeremy is gay. sure, he can crack jokes and people-please but the more people ask the more they're going to find out until maybe they find out something jeremy doesn't want them to know. and the longer this goes on, the more jeremy has to sit at linus' dinner table with linus and his beautiful wife and pretend like he isn't a little bit in love with him. and you know what? the longer it goes on and linus doesn't dial it down jeremy does stop being in love with him, because it just feels cruel, until he finally is done enough that he stops biting his tongue and ruins the moment.
Today's mood: incredibly salty about the existence of "Booby Tape".
As in, the brand. The global multimillion dollar brand. "The world's first breast lift tape!" Because it's literally just kinetic tape. It's not wider, it's not anything, it just comes in a range of skin colors.
Oh, and it costs at least three times as much.
The part that really drives me up the wall is going through their FAQ, though.
"The secret with Booby Tape is all in the adhesive! It's formulated to hold the heaviest of breasts with a super strong grip!" It's kinetic tape.
"The key feature of Booby Tape is that it comes in a roll and you can cut your own length according to measure to minimise wastage." Yeah, it's kinetic tape.
"There is no latex or zinc oxide in Booby Tape. Booby Tape is made from a combination of cotton and nylon and the adhesive is acrylic." IT'S KINETIC TAPE.
What's even worse is that they only "recommend using nipple covers before applying Booby Tape as an extra precaution to sensitive nipples". Like dude. Do not apply tape directly to your nipples. Do NOT. Use a band-aid, or a folded handkerchief. Anything.
As for removal - "Booby Tape will come off easily if you peel your tape off gently and carefully", except their actual how-to guides tell you to soak it ("and we mean soak!") in their special "Booby Tape Remover".
Which, you guessed it, is just a 24€ bottle of oil.
everyone is (rightfully) criticizing watcher for putting their content behind a paywall but i also think a reason watcher is generally less successful is bc they are trying so hard to make it a brand. when the reality is people loved buzzfeed unsolved bc of ryan and shane's banter and personalities.
So I had two package deliveries yesterday I'm annoyed about for different reasons.
First one was two books delivered in a soft 'insulated' packet type package, not a box. Which meant both were damaged because of the deliberately poor packaging choices. The first of the two books was only lightly damaged, minor cosmetic issues. Slightly crinkled corner that affects about a third of the pages but not super noticeable. The second of the two books had majorly bent pages to the point I was worried the seam of the bend was going to tear loose if not reinforced and the spine itself was damaged so badly that I was concerned that it would take very little use for the book to fall apart completely.
I don't mind the condition of the first book, but the second one? These are meant to be new books and that second one is in awful condition. I was able to get a free return/replacement option so hopefully the second delivery attempt will be packaged better and the book won't get partially destroyed in transit again.
The second delivery was in a box so what was inside was fine. So the packaging was not the problem here. The problem was that it apparently sat out in front of my house for a few hours with me unaware it was there because they left it halfway up the walkway up to my house. They did not bring it to the porch or ring the doorbell or follow anything remotely like the delivery instructions. If I hadn't eventually gotten the 'hey we delivered this, see the picture???' confirmation emails, it might have stayed out there over night.
My doorbell doesn't always work, but I've got a camera on my porch that I depend on to let me know when I've got a delivery or mail has arrived or my door dash order is here or that the person who just rang the doorbell/knocked is a solicitor I don't wanna talk to. (Or a girl scout selling cookies with her dad and I need to go grab my wallet on the way to the door to support the local troop.) So having a package essentially be barely delivered to my house is kind of annoying and definitely is too far from the porch to trigger the camera. And while this would have been a mild annoyance to me normally, it really annoyed me so much more coming on the heels of the packaging screw up resulting in a damaged book.
hi i'd like to introduce you to my best friend Blazer he's kinda shady and may or may not be plotting to turn us into the police for some extra cash as we speak but he looks cool so it's fine
heeheee....putting my own videos up on tumblr ?! its more likely than you think !
had this silly demo disc i bought off ebay for like months and have been majorly procrastinating on recording whats on it (bc theres like. no info about it on google like??? anywhere??) but i have finally done it....i am free!!!!!
i like to play survival horror games like resident evil (and to some degree classic DOOM which is very scary with the keyboard only controls and original software rendering but that's a whole other deal) with cheats and god mode and infinite ammo and it's wonderful how well most of these games transition from being pee pants scary games where you have scarce resources to these over the top action games with goofy plot and cutscenes that you cannot take seriously if you really tried because there's cutscenes like one in re4 where leon hits a blinker and it does that silly fucking fisheye on his face. god i love those games
I get where the frustration with ‘horror geared toward children’ comes from but capitalism preying on the interests of kids to sell backpacks and hoodies isn’t new. Kids liking horror isn’t new. Horror produced for children isn’t new.
