#best weekend of their lives

[hephaestuscrew]

Renée Minkowski loves Organised Fun, whereas Doug Eiffel thinks Organisation and Fun are inherently incompatible. Eiffel can get hours of enjoyment out of discussing 'What are your Top Five ____?' questions with Hera, but if you asked him the same questions and told him it was a team icebreaker activity, he'd jump out of a window. In contrast, the best way to get Minkowski to engage with pointless questions like those would be to include the discussion on a precisely timetabled schedule of activities. I don't think Eiffel would have voluntarily got involved with Funzo because he would have taken one look at the size of the instruction booklet and decided that maybe he did think they should follow Pryce and Carter Tip 792 after all. I think Minkowski sees a robust instruction booklet on a game as a sign that she's in for a good time. Minkowski believes any day of leisure is improved by an itinerary. Eiffel can't even contemplate following a schedule in his work hours, let alone his downtime.

#Wolf 359 #w359 #Renée Minkowski #Doug Eiffel #They have a sitcom-esque personality clash #and they are also best friends who get separation anxiety if they are apart too long #and want to live their lives together #These things are not contradictory in this case #There are so many exciting ways they can annoy each other when there are no potentially fatal catastrophes to deal with #I think they should go on weekend trips together and bicker endlessly #I think Minkowski should make a ring binder of fun activities #and I think Eiffel should tease her about it #I think Eiffel should persuade Minkowski to do something spontaneously that she ends up really enjoying #and I think Eiffel should admit that maybe Minkowski's schedules are somewhat handy sometimes #the empty man posteth #Eiffel & Minkowski #w359 spoilers #wolf 359 spoilers

it's been a sec since i've done a translation! but i think this comic is really sweet so translation under the cut!! the title on the comic is "kiribaku and tododeku who aren't public about their relationship (having mild heart attacks)", and the caption on the tweet is "i wanna read 10000 stories about people finding out about kiribaku and tododeku's relationships"

Hero Radio OFFTiME! On our program, you can hear top heroes spill a little bit about their private lives. Today's hosts are Deku and Red Riot! What kinds of things will they talk about? Let's see!

Midoriya: Man, you must be tired! You came here straight after a night shift, right? Are you feeling alright?

Kirishima: All good! Besides, you've been working ten days in a row, right? Good on you!

(word bubbles - Very, Very Tired)

M: Alright then, our first letter of the night...this one comes to us from BlueMackerel-san, who asks, "How did you spend your last day off?"

K: Uhh...oh yeah! Hiked 'n camped! And ate a ton of campfire food!

M: Oh, with Kacchan?

K: Yep!

M: He sure does like hiking.

Flashback Kirishima: WHOOPIE!!

Flashback Bakugou: Just eat it

M: What'd you two eat?

K: The works! Spare ribs, and homemade sausage, and meat, and more meat! Bakugou always packs a ton of meat to barbecue, it's crazy good! What about you?

M: Mmm...I slept in until around noon...and I think that day, Todoroki's family invited me over for dinner. His sister is a great cook!

Flashback Fuyumi: Welcome, welcome!

K: Coooool. So we both ended up just spending the day with our boyfriends, huh-

M: UH- um-

K: Huh? OH-! Cut! Cut!! Can you guys pretend you didn't hear that last...

M: Ohhhh my goddddddd

Narration: Our next letter comes to us from DieYouScum-san, who writes, "I'm killing you when you get home"

OOHHH Pantone I hate you so much for locking colors behind a paywall and having the physical book be $200

#I'm just gonna do my best and ask manu if I could see swatches + they could match for me #wish I still lived close to my college so I could just go to the graphic design floor for the book #I don’t wanna invest in buying it either cuz idk if I’m gonna even make enamel pins regularly #I’m only doing these 2 cuz my mom’s been bothering me for months #about how they’d be nice AND YEAH BUT. #THEY’RE SO EXPENSIVEEEEE #I just wanna paint but I need to finish and order these this weekend #and then suffer after I pay the amount asl;dkfj #lux.txt

None of ya’ll will ever know the sheer amount of workshopping and peer review that goes into these stupid memes. ISTG.

#I have forced this story on like six IRL friends #who do not give a shit about AFTG #But by GOD they're gonna help me figure out stupid jokes #My friend who lives in the same Apartment complex as me: Did u just hear gunshots? #Me: I assume firework until cop car but what about this meme for part 22? #Friend: Yeah I guess it is memorial weekend. It's okay but I think XX meme could convey it better #Me: Ur so right bestie #Fic Writing problems #Also to be clear #I do want you all to imagine me in a lab coat pondering the best possible meme #I have beakers #I have bunsen burners #I have safety goggles

🎶 It's been a long day without you, my friend.

And I'll tell you all about it when I see you again.

We've come a long way from where we began.

Oh I'll tell you all about it when I see you again. 🎶

#came on while I was driving to work yesterday #first time I've cried since I started T #miss you stink #best boy #I am having a lot of feelings this week because this weekend is the culmination of the last 9 years #I wouldn't have anything I have now without you #and as I begin to start this journey over again #I can't do anything but think about how grateful I am that you were my dog #I love you Creed #I wish you could still be here #there's only 3 or 4 of your litter left now #I just wish you were one of them #your legacy lives on through my girls #and through the dedication litter #I look at them and I see you #thank you for being my dog #you saved me #I hope I did good by you

“The basement [at Nellcôte] was like a labyrinth of concrete and brick cubicles - not really separate rooms, more like stables, stalls. Charlie's round the corner in the second cubicle on the left, Bill's over there in that one, someone else is under the staircase. I could see Charlie’s left hand flicking away. I would never rely on headphones; as long as I could see that I knew that we were in time.”

Keith Richards, 2001

#every memory he shares of exile is like this #‘Charlie left for the weekend - I was emo’ #‘Charlie was so cool - he didn’t want to live in the south’ #‘Charlie was experimenting - it was the best time of my life’ #‘Charlie’s left hand - I must see it at all times his limbs are so important to me’ #do you even remember the album Keith? #the rolling stones #charlie watts #keith richards #old married band #quote #bill wyman

no one talk to me i've been reading destiel fics for four straight days and i don't have a single compelling reason as to why.

#my life is just in absolute flux rn #living in my best friends guest room with ALL my shit AND my husband AAAANDDDD our cat until friday really has me fucked up #not to mention finding a new job #and moving AGAIN this weekend #ugh #look sometimes a bitch just wants a veritable feast of options okay??? #do you have ANY IDEA the depth of variety to be found in massive ships???? #its unreal #i've exhausted dhr and furthermore have more or less moved on from that ship and fandom for now #and like i've seen all of supernatural i love cas #so anyway whatever im living my best life #destiel #also a lot of my beloved mutuals are having supernatural moments rn and i am being influenced

What I love about Lance's 2022 throwback video is that it just proves that when he's in the paddock he's in professional mode and the judgemental glares make so much sense

#f1 #lance stroll #Work does that to a person #Also props to him for setting those boundaries #I have adored all the stuff he's shared with us this month #But we're not entitled to it #And especially when he's at work and focusing on doing the best he can each weekend I can understand that he doesnt want to 'do content' #This idea that if they don't plaster it all over their socials then they don't live their lives is ridiculous #The drivers are fully entitled to their private lives

Do you have someone you talk to everyday? Except family

anon why are you trying to give me an existential crisis in the middle of the day:') also. bold of you to assume i talk to my family every day jsfhdkjghjk

#EVERY day every day? idts. i do not talk to my college friends at ALL when im home over the weekends #except rarely when they text me about assignments #but i guess i talk to them every day during the working week cause i meet them every day #i guess i talk to certain mutuals pretty much every day. i think ive talked to phobicule almost every day this week #shoutout to hana and rafaela i think the past couple months ive been talking to them pretty much every day #i USED to have someone id talk to every single day even when we hadnt lived in the same city since elementary school but #that's a different story. she sucks #and i dont think we've been friends let alone best friends in like eight months now #and there were a couple of other people id talk to every day and we still do talk and i still love them as much obviously #but im just constantly drained and overworked so not EVERY day #and there are some people i wish i could talk to more but somehow have even less time and energy than i do #but i dont think we're any less close than we used to be because of that. life's just hectic we're still a call away #anon (derogatory) #<- sorry:') #im assuming you saw my college post and i dont really get why youd send this lol

[mossflower]

loki season two has me screaming crying throwing up trying not to get dragged back into the mcu trenches

#i am stronger than this. i am better than this!! #by the trenches i mean consuming fanfiction at an unhealthy rate. fourteen year old me was insane i think i was on ao3 more than i slept #that’s not exaggeration. i was getting four hours of sleep on school nights and frequently went to bed at 5am on weekends #it is ONE good story. one. literally not worth it. i don’t even care about ninety percent of the mcu characters #i will ignore the little voice in my head reminding of the sheer amount of fanfiction. this was my pre-tumblr days #so my fandom interaction was like. youtube and ao3. maybe instagram posts sometimes. it was so much fun like. zero drama zero discourse #i was honestly living my best life. got less interested when i joined tumblr and went full doctor who mode #and after endgame i watched i think wandavision and loki and that was it. just didnt care anymore lol #i know exactly why this is happening tho. currently the thing i am insane about is my own damn project. which i am in the process of writin #for obvious reasons no fandom there. bc it lives in my mind twenty four fucking seven #i do wonder if i’m kind of growing away from fandom anyway? the closest i’ve got since toh ended was homestuck tbh #i want to feel obsessed with something again!! everything i’m into now - tma tlt and the like - i love them #but it doesnt hit like it used to. i don’t know it’s hard to explain #like video essays that i would have loved a few years ago!! the hour long ones about representation and queer media #they just irritate me now! i got halfway through one last week and had to bail i just could not care less #how did 2020 social media have me convinced that x character being gay was super important politically economically socially etc #ofc the answer is that i was a baby lesbian getting even less social interaction than normal #like representation is important obviously but also. sometimes it was not that deep #i don’t know if i’m making sense tbh but you get my drift #morganposting

👏big👏dick👏steve

that’s it.

that’s everything I have to say today.

bye bye

Love you my baby!

-🧸

Oh Steve is BIG, I just know it 🙈

But I think at the start, his size doesn’t make him overconfident or full of himself? He’s just really into the fact you’re so in awe of how big he is and it damn near breaks him.

Once he finds his confidence with intimacy though, holy shit does that man play up on the fact he’s huge. The way he lays you on the bed, making you comfortable and kisses you with a hunger that you easily reciprocate.

His touch is so gentle but the way he’s going to fuck you is going to be anything but that. His kisses are too insistent, grunting as he grinds the bulge in his sweatpants against you and the second he slips himself inside you, you realise you couldn’t be more right.

He always relishes that first gentle slide, watching how you struggle to keep eye contact with him as he bottoms out. “Gets you every time, doesn’t it honey?” He asks with a smirk, holding your chin to keep your eyes on him.

He starts to pull back, only letting a couple of inches slip from your body before driving himself home again, drinking in your whimpers.

“Too big for you, huh? There’s not a thought in that little head of yours. You just take it. Such a perfect girl, going all silly on her Captain’s nice thick cock.” He adores how you whimper, your eyes squeezing shut, willing yourself not to feel as much pleasure as he’s giving you.

“I feel every fucking flutter, you know that? I feel every single squeeze. Feel the way you desperately try to cling to me. Even when you’ve had enough and you’re pushing me away, you’re still trying to keep yourself stuffed and you don’t even know it.” He grunts, angling his hips to hit that sweet spot so deep inside you, it leaves you clawing his back, whining your pleasure into the crook of his neck and willing him to never stop.

#asks answered <3 #🧸 anon #becca writes spice #your messages are literally always so adorable #they make me so happy 🥺 #love you too! 🥺 #my head is just empty today #but very full at the same time #is it sad that I’m so damn excited to have a gossip session with my brother this weekend? #He’s gonna love the fact I’ve been living my best life #it’s not often I have this much excitement in my personal life #im working on a longer piece rn besties! #i just started it and it’s a slightly different style to what I usually write but I’m loving it

See and Hear Everything Twice

(Or, How I attended a Taylor Swift concert with my sister in spite of my severe photosensitivity)

So as I indicated on this blog while we were sitting in traffic, I went to Taylor Swift's Eras Night 1 in Foxbourogh over the weekend.

"But Leah," I hear you saying, "How in the world did you manage that? Surely such a thing would liquify your poor, photosensitive brain! After all, twinkle lights have been known to give migraines before. Surely a stadium concert is a bad idea!"

Well. Yes. My sister went into the concert alone. I listened from outside the stadium.

My sister and I are long-time, vintage Swifties. We started out listening wearing grooves in the Fearless CD, and we've never let up. My sister and I are also night-and-day different in both our interests and dispositions, to the point where I've had friends ask, "But what do you do together?" And the answer to that is a lot of things, but "sing along to Taylor Swift" is definitely a big one.

I looked hard and was eventually able to get my sister a single ticket to Eras for her birthday (which has the added advantage of being substantially cheaper than two tickets together). The idea was that I would (a) become the Coolest Big Sister ever by making this happen for her and (b) be able to experience the whole thing secondhand. Both of us took that concept very seriously.

I don't know if you know it, but there's a Christmas story that we like in my family called "Why the Chimes Rang." Here's an excerpt:

"But I cannot bear to leave you, and go on alone," said Little Brother. "Both of us need not miss the service," said Pedro, "and it had better be I than you. You can easily find your way to the church; and you must see and hear everything twice, Little Brother - once for you and once for me."

My sister quoted this to me the morning of our concert and I can't describe what it meant to me. She saw and heard everything twice. Sitting outside the stadium (and wearing both the concert tees we bought on top of my regular clothes - it was a cold night), I got to hear the music that we grew up listening to together. More than that, in a lot of ways, it felt like my incredible little sister was sitting right next to me, like we were listening together. Really, it was kind of surreal.

I've long since made my peace with the idea that there are lots of things that my illness won't let me do. Yet it was really beautiful to be able to cross one impossible thing off that list this weekend, with some help from my sister.

I've waxed poetic enough, so I'm just gonna bullet point some of the details below for anyone who's interested:

The traffic on the way in wasn't terrible, but when we stopped at a rest stop for lunch the place was stuffed with Swifties in full concert apparel. A feeling of fun and camaraderie in the air.

The merch line was a good hour and forty five, but I was able to get a poster for the shadow box that my sister plans on making (she's crafty like that).

Everybody's outfits were NUTS. Lots of sequins, sparkling cowboy boots and hats, replicas on iconic T Swift looks, etc. One gal was dressed as the crumpled up piece of paper from "All Top Well."

Friendship bracelet swapping was SO fun. I spent the run up to the concert knotting bracelets and everyone I talked to seemed to think they were really cool!

There were probably 40-50 people hanging out by the stadium the night of our concert. Lots of folks were picnicking. There were these four little girls in identical concert sweatshirts there with someone's mom and they were having a grand time dancing and singing and oh boy was it infectious. You could hear all the music clearly from where I was, though probably only about 20% of the dialogue.

My highlights were probably the Fearless set (something buoyant in the air + truckloads of deep fondness), august into the illicit affairs double bridge (SHIVERS), 22 (a fave + fond moment with my sister over text), and the end of the 1989 set (high on the night and singing along).

Our surprise songs were "Should've Said No" and "Better Man." My sister sent me some genuine hall-of-fame texts as Taylor was announcing them. Both are firmly A-tier songs for which I have a lot of love. Also, we both found it funny that the Yeehaw Swifties won so big in Massachusetts, of all places.

The traffic getting out of Foxbourogh was horrific. We barely moved for the better part of two hours after getting back to the car.

After the concert, my sister came running when she found me and all but leapt into my arms. For all that I loved the music, that was the best part of the night.

#i fully realize that this is very saccharine and way more about me and my sis than it is about Taylor Swift #that said: maybe it offers a unique perspective? #this is how you do life when your body rules certain activities out #this is how you live vicariously through others in a good and joyful way #tay tay #chronic illness is hilarious #no one will ever walk the earth so close to you #pontifications and creations #been meaning to write this since the weekend hopefully this is of interest to /somebody/ lol #sisters are the best #and Swiftie sisters are the double-best #love you girl!!
