“If I’m so terrible, how about you just grow a pair and replace me?”
“Are you gonna run off with him . . . and leave me behind?"
Editors notes under the cut
These bitches are truly deeply hella troubled and I’m tired of pretending their root insecurities are not fascinatingly parallel to one another. 
(Posting cause there’s unprecedented storming outside and I can’t sleep lmao)
As soon as s2 ep 2 came out I really deeply truly desired to make a little something something for Octavia and Luna and their relationships with their dads. I hope future eps give us more father-daughter content.
I also REALLY liked remaking the second half. I originally wasn’t going to, but the idea of getting to rip apart my work and try again was too juicy of an opportunity to pass up. As someone incapable of self-satisfaction, this soothed some of the aches in me that long to pick and pick and pick at all my creations ad nauseam. Also, having more clips mean I get to provide different interpretations to the same lyrics I’ve already worked with, which is also super cool.

Hi!! Do you know of the fic where oc is a spy/government agent and her partner is married to JK. The partner ends up dying and in her will, she wants oc to help out jk with their kids all while she tries to figure out if her partner was a double agent?

Forever (is a Long Time)- Halsey- Manic
Sometimes I’ll “see” more than just colors or abstract shapes. It’s not quite enough to be a full image; Imagine looking at a person through frosted glass or an unfocused camera; it’s like that. Many, if not most, songs are pretty consistent with how they “look”, but this one changes tone and tempo a few times, which breaks it into more distinct “chunks”. I’ve included time stamps for each chunk, as well as photos of each panel on its own. Of all of these, either the second or fourth are my favorites. It took three attempts to get the first panel right.
Acrylic paint, paint pens, chrome pen on 4x3 canvas boards, appx 6 hours of work.

We broke up last week. And you went with the girl
That you truly loved.
And totally forgotten me.
Do you know what i am doing here?
With a bedsheet over my head
Near the window panes
Across the Not switched on LED lights.
Tears streaming down,
Reading the novels,
And searching you in that novels,
Thinking , did you really not loved me for
A mere second.

what is with men being mad any time a woman raises her voice where did that even come from. someone posted a video of a small electrical explosion, and the top comment was of course the woman screams. the second comment is women try not to scream challenge, level impossible. i had to go back and watch the video again. there is, somewhat fainty, a little gasp emitted off-camera, more of a yelp than a scream. it is mostly lost in the crack of the explosion. afterwards, you hear her voice, shaken, say, are you okay?
i am helping one of my friends train her voice pitch lower, because she wants to be taken seriously at work. she and i do each other's nails and talk about gender roles; and how - due to our appearance - neither of us have ever been able to be "hysterical" in public. we both appear young and sweet and feminine. she is cisgender, and cannot use her natural voice in her profession because people keep saying she appears to be "vapid". we both try to figure out if our purposeful voice lowering is technically sexist. is it promoting something when you are a victim to it?
a storm almost sends a pole through a car window. in the dashcam, you can hear the woman passenger say her partner's name twice, crying out in alarm. she sounds terrified. in the comments, she is lambasted for her lack of calm. how is that even fucking helping?
in high school, i taught myself to have a lower voice. i had been recorded when i was genuinely (and righteously) upset; and i hated how my voice sounded on the phone speakers when it was played back. i was defending my mom, and my voice cracked with emotion. it meant i was no longer winning the argument: i was just shrieking about it.
girls meet each other after a long summer and let out a little joyful scream. this usually stops around 12-14, because people will not tolerate this display of affection (as it has the effect of being passingly annoying). something about the fact that little girls can't ever even be annoying. we are trained to examine each part of our lives (even joy) for anything that could make us upsetting and disgusting. they act like teenage girls are breaking into houses and shrieking you awake at 3 in the morning. speaking as a public school educator: trust me, it's not that bad, you can just roll your eyes and move on. it does not compare to the ways boys end up being annoying: slurs in graffiti, purposefully mocking your body, following you after you said no. you know, just boy things.
there's another video of a man who is not allowed to yell in the house, so he snaps his fingers when he's excited about soccer. the comments are full of angry men, talking about how their brother is unfairly caged. let him express himself and this is terrible to do to someone. eventually the couple has to address it in a second video: they are married with a newborn baby. he was trying not to wake the infant up. there is no comment on the fact women are not allowed to yell indoors. or the fact that it could have been really alarming or triggering for his wife. sometimes i wonder if straight men even like women, if they even enjoy being in relationships with them.
for the longest time, i hated roller coasters because it always felt inappropriate and uncomfortable for me to scream. one of my friends called me on it, said it was unusual i'm so unwilling. i had to go to my therapist about it. i don't like to scream because i was not raised in a safe situation, and raising my voice would have brought unsafe attention towards me. even when i am supposed to scream, it feels shameful, guilty. i was not treated kindly, so i lack a basic form of self-protection. this is not a natural response. it is not good that in a situation of high adrenaline - i shut up about it.
something very bad is happening, i think. in between all the beauty standards and the stuff i've already discussed - this one feels new and cruel in a way i can't quite express. yes, it's scary and silencing. but there's something about how direct it is - that so many men agree with the sentiment that women should never yell, even in an emergency - it feels different.
is the word shriek gendered automatically? how about shrill or screech? in self defense class, one of the first things they tell you is to yell, as loud and as shrilly as you can. they say it will feel rude. most women will not do this. you need to practice overcoming the social pressure and just scream.
most women do not cry out, even when it's bad. we do not report it. we walk faster. we do not make a scene. what would be the point of doing anything else? no matter what we do, we don't get taken seriously. it is a joke to them. an instagram caption punchline. we have to present ourselves as silent, beautiful, captivating - "valuable."
a woman is outside watching her kids when someone throws a firecracker at them. she screams and runs towards her children. in the comments, grown men flock together in the thousands: god. women are so annoying.
