Could I please request a webweave about complex feelings on being an only child?
unfortunately i couldn't find anything specifically related to being an only child but i am also an only child and i interpreted this as being really lonely so a lot of these are related to that. i hope this is what you were looking for <33

Swifties have found ANOTHER female co-star of Joe’s to harass
I know, I know, I said I was taking a break. I AM going to be significantly less active in the next month-ish because of exams. So if you tag me or message me and I don’t respond, don’t be shocked by that. Also, I don’t see myself being active when the Whinging Narcissist Department drops because I just need to protect my mental health bc you know the swifties (and their cult leader) make me genuinely angry with the way they act.
BUT, I also need to do a little dump of posts because UNFORTUNATELY, swifties do not ever take a break from being HORRIBLE little fuckshits. And I saw this so I have to talk about it.
So here are swifties attacking Alison Oliver, Joe’s CWF co-star, calling her a demon and a whore, quoting Taylor’s slutshaming Better Than Revenge lyrics at her. All because of a rumor that THEY FUCKING MADE UP.
They did the same shit to Emma Laird last year, because s posted a photo dump of all her co stars (including Joe) and now they’ve made up rumors about Alison being Joe’s “mistress” to justify attacking her.
They even used a clip of a sex scene as PROOF that Joe was cheating on Taylor, because apparently he “moaned her name”. 1) He said “ah shit” but swifties twisted things as they always do. 2) Having a sex scene, with an intimacy coordinator and camera crew, IS NOT THE SAME AS CHEATING. And 3) even if Joe accidentally moaned Alison’s name how the fuck would that be HER fault? If he actually moaned the wrong name they would have to reshoot the scene, but that would be HIS mess up, not Alison’s.
Anyway… idk if it’s because Alison and Joe recently reunited and took a picture, and that made swifties feel INSECURE on Taylor’s behalf, because they’re extremely parasocial about her and see her exes as THEIR exes. So I’m wondering if seeing Joe next to a pretty woman triggered them, and poor Alison who has committed the crime of BREATHING too close to Joe has become the new target of their wrath.
All of this is once again, why I keep saying, that swifties are one of the most misogynistic fandoms, CERTAINLY the most misogynistic popstar fandom, that I have ever come across. Swifties aww always pulling the misogyny card anytime Taylor gets criticism for ANYTHING but then they will go and be misogynistic towards any woman who isn’t Taylor.

Normal People
Normal people is about vulnerability and the importance of intimacy. It explores miscommunication and the power unsaid words have on people. Such a deeply emotional, sensitive, gentle and beautifully written and directed story about two young adults - who find such enormous solace in one another, that cannot be found within anyone else they meet throughout their lives.
Connell and Marianne are two twin flames who fall in and out each other lives, mostly because of their lack of clearness and transparency which feels frustrating and even overwhelming at times.
What often happens is that Connell and Marianne overthink almost everything, but don’t express their thoughts because they think they have the other person’s thoughts already figured out. But thinking is not the same as communicating. They get so caught up in their assumptions and thoughts that completely forget to do the simplest thing, which is - to ask.
Although they have a lot of misunderstandings the love they feel for each other is terrifyingly unmatched.
All throughout this novel it becomes clear that the two characters have a really unique and special spark, they and their relationship is complex, but between them exists a certain normalcy that cannot be understood by others.
Connell and Marianne constantly try out things that make them feel weird or normal, but towards the conclusion of the novel it appears that they have accepted that their favourite version of normal is the version that exists within their relationship, when they’re with each other.
This story explores perfectly but in a very realistic way, the importance of growing up and finding love within ourselves and the people around us.
Normal People shows us how societal expectations and insecurities can affect us and our relationships forever.
