#how do you break up with somebody?

Breaking each other apart is how we show our love

Why I Am Not Coming In To Work Today [abridged], Jess Zimmerman

part one | part two

#me when everybody is posting the maple leafs sad narratives and i am furiously generating this like HOLD ONNNN HOLD ONNNNNNN #honestly i could've been SOOOO MEAN about this because i saw this poem & alexandra got the preview on the poetry blog #where i just reblogged the first half of this poem point blank with the tags #kyle dubas #toronto maple leafs #& got yelled at aksdaksf & it literally only didn't go on this blog bc i usually write more & then it was percolating & i looked up the poe #& it was only the FIRST PART i'd reblogged i didn't know there was more & then brain immediately went brrrrr ok time for an edit. #this is a long one lol & i also have no idea if it makes sense to anybody but me but because y'all know me i will always overexplain so!! #my reasoning for the reasons obvi kyle. that's a given i hope he's doing well i hope he & his family r good but man is not coming in to wor #the second edit took me a stupid amount of time bc i am nitpicky but also i learned how to do the layers & transparency from the claude edi #that actually y'all don't know about lmao but i lost my mind when i saw how perfectly those pictures align i was scrolling getty & was like #ok december i'm gonna do a headline one (in my brain with the november/june quote about choosing to die again) w/ maple leafs playoff odds #how they say at winter break you know who's gonna be in the playoffs & who'll win & they thought they had a shot but it's mitchie overlaid #the 2003-04 team who'd last won a playoff round with the atlantic division stats from dec for 22-23 & how long it's been & dec headlines #i wanted breakup/recent/never loved to be a recent trade acquisition somebody who bounced around & somebody else so i almost had simmer #brodie & zar but then i wanted to make murray for breakup at any time &i forgot zar & him were on the pens together &it hit me like a truc #bc there's a photo of the two of them EXACTLY the same so close it's scary of this one but them as pens so they had to be it & i did always #know never loved again was mitchie. sorry. also mitchie in the penalty box the last game but i couldn't find footage of it & this one works #no i could not find a photo of tyler bertuzzi fighting a leaf for a dog looked at me yes i tried. #i almost made the bunting photo jt but instead it's 'bunting a rat etc' anyway the one i really feel unhinged about is dead pets bc at firs #i was gonna make it the handshake line & look to see if the leafs had drafted anybody on the panthers (dead pet former draft pick) #& they had & it was carter verhaeghe & i couldn't get a good pic of matthews & verhaeghe but it's fine bc i thought about the mo/luke schen #narrative (in which they are a perfect d pair long lost) & schenn was drafted by the leafs & that line fits jut trust me. also how i feel #about the kniesy luminous line that one possessed me it had to be kniesy idk why. i almost put gussy as girls are too pretty though ALSO #did u like my joke. daylight SAVINGS time on the goalie. thank u. also my photo magic on the jt (me very poorly editing in him as an isle) #OK ALSO HOLD ONNNNN there is a part two but i have to wait for the Content i want it will come out as soon as [redacted] or sooner #if i get bad at waiting &everyone will pretend like it is always the way it will be once i have the photos i want. speaking of did the leaf #simply not take a team photo this year?? it Does Not Exist for me i have tried very hard to look for it also i'm excited for part 2 #one of them is named oh you're so unhinged for this one & the finished product is you're unhinged in ways you didn't even know u were sorry #liv in the replies

(Going insane boinkinh one AU in my head)

Hey hey hey

May I interest you in

(Slowly slides my FaaF AU towards you but void just Disappears without a trace one day before the accolade)

Teehee

#thylacines can talk #faaf au #i love this au very yummy. a very fun twist on how Flower's dynamic with their parents would progress afterwards #the vessels live but the void exits their bodies in quite a violent manner (extreme pain and literally throwing up an entire person worth of #void). Flower was on guard duty and theyre found barely conscious in a pool of rapidly evaporating void. passes out seconds later #PK also had the displeasure of experiencing extene pain and burning as void forced its way out through his skin <3 And his moulds all melted #and evaporated. after the initial shock wears off theyre hit with “Oh No #the vessel“ and rush to find them. Well somebody else was already looking for the royal pair about this #Flower wakes up dazed and in pain in their father's workshop. their stomach hurts their throat burns and they feel lightheaded. the entire #place is considerably brighter than they remember and in they can hear two faint voices in the background but theyre too preoccupied with #examining their now pure white hand in shock to focus on anything else. until they hear their mother say “My wyrm they're awake” and #suddenly their parents are by their side. Now the two have no idea what void leaving their body might have done to them. Are they still #hollow? are they still dead? do they understand anything are they sentient? or was what was done pernament even without the void? do they #have the mind of a child if their sentience was restored? or do they remember anything? So WL stays by their side and helps them sit up #while their father goes to grab his tools. She's trying to keep them calm and comfort them but theyre still too disoriented to pay her much #attention. Until their father checks their breathing and they yelp audibly from the cool metal contacting their skin and suddenly they seem #much more alert. theyve never experienced true coldness before. PK quickly apologises and tries to be gentler with them. Theyre breathing #properly and they have a heartbeat. And he just pauses for a long while just. listening to their heart beating. Many emotions to be had #after the exam's over he asks them point blank how theyre feeling. And Flower looks up at him still seeming a little disoriented. and then #they lower their hand to their stomach and mutter 'My tummy hurts...a-and my throat burns'. It's to be expected after the way the void #left their body. so he goes to grab them some water and meds and they also ask for food and a mirror. And after he returns they just stare #at themself in the mirror and pull on their bangs for a while then blurt out 'I have your eyes' when PK asks if everything's okay. And he #and he almost chokes up as he replies 'Yeah...Yeah you do'. Flower eventually spins a lie that they remember everything but its all distant #and blurry. Like they were not aware until now. They figured it'd be better to not break their hearts #And now the three have to figure out how to be a family while PK is also scrambling to find a new solution to the infection #oops i meant to only give a brief rundown in the tags which is why it was in the tags. but i got too invested KDHDKFB

what do you fucking mean that's how charlie dies. THAT'S HOW CHARLIE DIES??? i mean i know the show has a penchant for killing off every character who's not a winchester brother or an angel of thursday but good god. what the fuck. charlie was such a good and enjoyable recurring character, and she had such a fandom impact that i've seen, and she's only around for THREE SEASONS?? (sidebar: it's amazing she has the presence she does for only being around for a couple episodes in the long run!) but: was this necessary? and she just dies offscreen after her skills are utilized to progress the plot of decoding the book of the damned?? oh my god. what in the actual fuck. i'm finding myself getting genuinely very upset at her death. she did not fucking deserve that. and i can absolutely see why the fan response to her death is what it is now. completely fucking unjustified and throwaway and useless.

#theo.txt #spn #charlie #spn spoilers #spn 10x21 #almost none of the women who've gotten fridged on this show have deserved it but still #good god this one made me especially angry #why do you use this character for a plot point and then ship her off somewhere. to oz or to the afterlife. so often? #she was such a cool character with a good story that i enjoyed and related to and THIS is what they did with her?? and from my perusing she #doesn't even really come back like bobby occasionally does?? and his death. while devastating to me as somebody who really liked him. still #felt WAY better than this #sorry i ended that episode with my jaw on the fucking FLOOR oh my god. /neg #what did she have to die for? where is that post about female characters dying so male characters can feel sad but it's a gifset of all the #bullshit ass deaths of women on supernatural #i love the show fucking obviously but jesus h christ. #but also you know what. having the context that i have. still a fucked up thing to say but i see why dean says That to sam now during #charlie's funeral. it IS an interesting look into how they respond to the other one violating their wishes/freedoms and into their larger #dynamic actually! but thats not what this post is really about #wow. i am actually livid. poor fucking charlie. #if she was like a sister to the winchesters how about you bring her back huh? how about you revive her? jesus christ #i wonder what her heaven is like. i hope its dnd and movie night with the girls #i took a little break mid-typing this to see if i was just being insane and angry but no the super wiki has a whole section about the fan #outrage at charlie's death and the discussions it furthered about the show's misogynistic tendencies #and you know what? good! #ok anyway. im going to go browse charlie art and feel abnormal now. #supernatural #charlie bradbury

Honestly I think Dean Highbottom has some shit to answer to as well. The mockery, the derision, the outright admittance that he was hoping Coriolanus would fail and the Snow family would continue to suffer. How someone who loathed the Games still treated a young man with cruelty because of the past, because of social divides that would be so easy to tear down. In the end, it wasn’t just Gaul who shaped Snow into the man he became. So bitter and hateful. So incapable of compassion and forgiveness. Just like his father. Just like his Dean.

#like yeah there were a lot of things questionable about Snow even before he was chosen as a mentor in the games #but like. damn. you didn’t even consider the idea he could be better than his father did you? #the way kindness could have unravelled some of the hate in Snow’s heart #listen to me tell you the horrible things your father did. listen to me tell you that you can be different. you are not the past. #the divides between us do not truly exist. look at the weapon in your hand. it is real. and it can do real damage #but if you never hate someone - if they never fool you into letting violence into your heart - they can never make you use it #it breaks my heart. how could you hate a ghost so much that you’d kill a child. I don’t know. but the Dean does. and so does Snow. #the cycles run and run until somebody stops. and burns some bread. and shares berries. and takes an arrow. and says no more. I love you #it is difficult. it could hurt me. it could be the very last thing I do. it may not even serve me well. but I love you. I love. always. #how pathetic hate makes you. how strong love makes you. like staring at the Dean and staring at characters like Haymitch #like two substance abusing men who know the system inside out. who are complicit. who are victims. both embittered and angry. #but one saw a child and decided to punish him for the past #and the other saw a child and decided - okay. it’s been 23 years. my heart hurts. I want to give in. I want to hate you. I want to not care. #I’m going to care anyway. I’m in so much pain. It’s killing me. I’m going to care anyway. about you both. it won’t be perfect. but I care. #and I’ll be here through hell. and I will fuck up. so fucking badly. because I’m still addicted and angry and god knows I have suffered. #god knows these hands are bloody and they always will be. but I will keep coming back. I will keep trying. I will still love. #and in the end I will write names in a book that belongs to you and I will find a little bit of peace in a house where the sun shines #and the geese make ridiculous noises in the yard. and love will have seen me through. #HAYMITCH YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS I LOVE YOU MY IMPERFECT DARLING #dean highbottom #coriolanus snow #the hunger games #a ballad of songbirds and snakes #haymitch abernathy #thg #abosas #suzanne collins #SHE WILL ALWAYS BE FAMOUS

dark will always take up immediate issue with those who mock love or emotion as weak i think. irrational at times? sure, he can agree. sensitive, vulnerable? absolutely; inherently, (as a synonym for sincere,) but the moment someone starts legitimately calling love a weakness or an exposed vein only meant to be punctured and drained from, that's when he starts to get angry. dark, as someone who already bears an inherent callousness and apathy, who knows just how easy it is to be cruel, destructive and belligerent, always admires daisuke for the boy's heart and tender, stubborn emotion. like sugisaki's interview mentions, dark is likely someone who bears continuous witness to and understands just how much intense effort can go into someone doing their best in trying to be kind to others; he thinks that he himself never could, at least not even close to the same way that daisuke steadily tries to maintain. those that would mock or scoff at daisuke's, if not the overall idea of kindness, dark won't hesitate to snap at and call weak, pathetic, or cowardly in return. those who prey on others' feelings and scorn or abuse them aren't proving that kindness is a 'weakness;' they're only fouling good things that could have even otherwise been their own with their own 'malicious crap and garbage.'

#*･ﾟ⊰ 𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐒. ⊱ ✦ › OUT. #reference. #this can get complicated bc like even if he chews somebody out he probably still won't start fighting them or anything #and there's still the part of him that doesn't really care how people live their lives for themselves #but at the same time. he recognizes that careless part of himself too. unlike daisuke who's always always showing compassion and worrying #for others' feelings and their safety #in the end ppl like this just remind him of krad who's always saying the same thing #emotion is a weakness feelings are a vulnerability so just never have anything ever. don't want anything don't do anything #for yourself. just repress and break and self destruct and let him control/manipulate everything #dark can't staaaaaand that. #it's not the love. it's YOU. anybody who twists and mucks things around. you're the weak one you're the scum #(and again. dark is the responsible one. he's the one who wants to always own up to his own shit) #daisuke isn't weak for his kindnesses because it takes so much -effort-. and he's always trying his best to focus on things important #and to meet them in whatever way he can. daisuke might admire dark for being capable and charismatic. cool and 'reliable' #but what dark doesn't say is how he admires daisuke for being so incredibly strong but still soft and -tender- as well #it's the same perspective as riku- 'he looks kind of wimpy but he's not weak. he always thinks about how he can do his best.' #even if dark can't be daisuke. the things that make himself up. things like love. sincerity. passion. things that make life worth living #dark will get hella defensive of things like that if you push the right buttons.

Song of the Day: February 26

“Diamonds in the Mud” by Gerry Cinnamon

#song of the day #another song off that same excellent concept playlist by losersimonriley #there's so many more Scottish bands added to my circulation now it's wonderful #this is a song specifically about Glasgow being his hometown so he uses more of his accent for it which I love #I've been pestering my brothers with accent and slang fun facts for a while now #more or less since the first time somebody had Soap use a particular Scottish saying in their CoD fic and made me go over all !!!! #'innsidh na geòidh as t'fhoghar e' translates to 'the geese will tell it in autumn' and reading that nearly made me explode #because when I was a small child and I asked my uncle too many 'why' questions he told me not to worry about it #that the geese would tell me next fall #amazing to me to find out decades later through Call of Duty fanfiction that that's an actual phrase #preserved for who knows how many generations between the first Scottish folks who must've brought it to Appalachia #and then eventually my Uncle Tommy who decided to use it to turn the aggravation tables around on a child #I'm thinking about that again now not just because it still blows my mind a little bit #(really truly had so firmly accepted it as just my Uncle Tommy trolling me with nonsense. it's such a thing he'd do) #but also because of a specific bit from the end of the song 'it's thirteen degrees and there's folk in the street in the scud' #that's just under 60F (a blissfully warm sunny day in Glasgow it seems) and 'in the scud' means 'naked' #which is also a thing I've almost heard from my family! #my aunts up the mountain and therefore also my father at times would say 'in the scuff' (my aunts with a little tilt to the vowel sound) #there was a sort of connotation of it being a silly or immature or maybe drunken sort of naked. an unimpressive naked at least #like 'Tommy fell into the muddy end of the pond trying to catch that damnfool heron' (this is a true story btw. take that Uncle Tommy) #'when he got back his wife made him take off all his clothin in the yard and hose down first. had to walk into his house in th scuff' #and then all the old ladies cackle about Tommy walkin through his door 'both heads hangin low' and my dad winces a little bit #it's important I share all these memories with my siblings now. most of the family's dead and gone and the boys don't remember #very fun for me to tell the stories now and see Nick do the exact same wince at the slightly mean-spirited dick commentary #just a little family legacy in action. thank you Gerry Cinnamon #(in the spirit of song-of-the-day though I will share my favorite line without the contextual boost of silly ereborne family stories: #'I know a guy who's a lightweight one or two jars and he's buckled #he's the guy that loses keys has to break into his ain house and gets huckled' #ungodly fun to sing and I do know several of this guy. not related to them though. my whole family drinks like fish)

While I was drawing earlier I had a playlist of a guy called OddTinkering repairing old consoles and it auto played one of him repairing and refilling a lighter that had been hand made by a soldier in WW1.

It’s stuck with me all day, I bet the human that made that never imagined that a century later it would be repaired, cared for and usable again.

#I like odd tinkering cause he’s silent and he uses most of the parts in the things he repairs #like not to get all ship of Theseus but some guys say they’re doing a repair and like 90% of the thing is new #I also like how gentle he is #I watched one guy bend and break a console over his knee and it just rubbed me up the wrong way #I know they’re inanimate but I still like them to be treated with care you know? #somebody a long time ago worked hard on it #somebody once loved it #and it can be repaired and reused again

trans people and erowid users both BTFO by this one bodybuilding guy at my work who is chugging crazy amounts of research chemicals to get buff

#somebody was like. dude won't that like. break ur endocrine system. and he was like yeah. already broken i run it manually #i use xyz to keep the E below __ and abc and cba to adjust my insulin. #he is Not Even That Buff which i think rules like clearly the hobby is more Running My Endocrine System than working out #and i genuinely love it for him. #how do you even break the insulin part of your endocrine system from bodybuilding supplements. i wish i had taken a picture #because it wasn't like. 'yeah i cycle t and also separately am diabetic' it was very much #'whatever i am doing with HGH/T will fuck up my every other hormone in my body including insulin but I'll just account for that'

the fact every part of him is an lethal weapon : )

#<<insomniac vampire speaking>> mun post #(thinking about him as an weapon thoughts are hitting it out the park tonight) #(you could strip his weapons from him- pin his wings and tie him up hell plus make sure he cant bite) #(only for him to think nothing about getting creative and like- him breaking bones to free himself is nothing to him) #(also yeah per usual the fact him going all weapon mode and such is horrifying) #(he also is not somebody to corner because as established he will Bite and Claw at his mildest response) #('oh your back is to the wall and ive got an advantage') #(nix just thinking about how he's going to launch at them and doing the math before lashing out)

like go fucking cunt your boyfriends shouldn't feel like they're walking on eggshells everytime you're around. no wonder neither of us wanted to kiss you because we were so disinterested because you made us feel fucking awful!!! oh my god

#honestly i'm just mad at how fucking? idk immature she was? like yeah we were 14 but oh my god you didn't have to put lasting scars on B- #-and then act like you were in the right like at least ypu could've apologized to him after a few fucking years. or maybe even when he asked #and god don't fucking act like you're the most mature person in the room when you can't handle your boyfriend asking you- #to respect his boundaries that she has set up FOR MONTHS. don't turn the conversation onto how he fucked up once you can have a separate- #fucking conversation on that. but NOOO conveniently you bring it up months after it happened when somebody's bringing up shit to you!! #and you change the conversation before you have to admit fault!!???? GOD. how much of a bitch are you??? #god at least i /tried/ to be better at communicating. did better after we broke up because you keep squashing all my fucking efforts dirtbag #god ok. god. still so fucking annoying. like god i cried not because you did shit to me but you hurt B so fucking much. like god #it's hard to make me cry like that esp back then. goddd. so glad i haven't been forced to talk to you in years #AND B WAS FUCKING GUILTY FOR “breaking our friend group apart” BECAUSE HE COULDN'T HANDLE SEEING YOU #like god. you fucked that guy up for years. so fucking glad she's doing better but oh my god. jackass #sorry anyways #babble #vent

[micamicster]

The thing about hwayugi was it solved the consent issues inherent in the love spell by leaning into making the whole situation worse <3 By which I mean the guy is an amoral trickster out to kill and eat her and the only defense she has is this love spell/curse that’s binding him to her and so they spend the first half of the show circling each other like two feral dogs locked in a cage of their own making all the while she knows at any minute the god she has on a leash may decide mutually assured destruction is at least her destruction and kill her anyway. and i love it <3

#and then of course it collapses like a house of cards halfway through because it is what? a hong sisters drama! but what can you do #destined with you’s problem is that it is playing this all for laughs and like don’t get me wrong! i am having fun! #it’s just that at some point we’re either going to have to reckon with how fucked up a love spell truly is #or they’re gonna have to break it fast because any longer and it’s gonna stop being a misfortune we can laugh at you know? #sorry for ranting about a drama from 6 years ago that no one remembers. but EYE remembers <3 #somebody should write a hwayugi au some time. that premise deserves more attention #hwayugi

#original art #why dont i just tag it life drawing actually #life drawing #new classes in a new city and it was really fun actually ...i knew it was guided but sometimes that just means #somebody saying alright this is 5 min pose.now we're doing 10 mins.half your time is up etc and maybe making some general advice but #its basically up to you how and what you do #but today for the first half of the session they were like you have to draw in this way or using these materials and although i was #expecting and maybe hoping for the former it was fun actually #the first one w the thick blue lines they gave us a felt tip taped to a wooden stick and told us to hold the paper far away + hold the stick #at the end so that you had less control/were making sort of loose marks or being more considered in trying to make a mark #+ they made us do one just using straight lines by using a playing card as a ruler lol? #the last one was a 40 min pose where u could do what u like and from my angle i didnt rly wanna focus on the figure so i drew the background #i liked the shadows behind the plant #it was in a coffee shop so i had a yummy chai latte during the break ❤️ i will try to go again pretty often

#every time I come home from my community group I'm reminded how important it is to get out and meet people and be a part of something #every time I put theory into practice I'm reminded that we learn things so that we can grow more able to love people #everything good thing reminds me that I can create the good I want to see in the world #contrast the hug that was unwillingly given to the pastor who was unwelcome to the big that I earned by being supportive and understanding #I will never shut up about getting a tumblr degree and then putting it to work in real life #I love being on the nerd and educator side of tumblr because it's full of people who care about knowing history and teaching it to others #full of people who care about learning about the hardships humans face and how to grow past them #and I learn from people who are twice my age and have lived through struggles similar to what I have #and I get to pass that knowledge along to others in my life. I get to share the fire that's kept me warm through my coldest nights #because that's what humanity is about. breaking the rules to share fire. paying the price for doing what you believe in #and changing the world one hearth at a time. #especially cause I've gotten to share some of the things I've learned about escaping abuse. which like. was never really relevant to me #but it's information I've learned on here and now I've gotten to share that with someone to help and encourage them to leave the situation #which.. that's the meaning of life y'all #you see hurt and you help. you see harm and you step in. you see someone getting beaten and you fucking wreck somebody's shit #you see someone crying and you offer a hug. you see someone getting hit and you fucking kick their attacker in the back of the head. #you speak up. you let your anger channel. anger tells you something is wrong. so fucking fix it. #anger is stigmatized and I hate it. anger is good. anger is self defense. anger is self preservation. let it fuel your desire to do good. #you cry and you scream and then you defend the ones you love.

i will never understand centering romance in life i'm sorry

#i mean truly it is something but to revolve your life around it to a degree i see some of my peers do? hell #i have friends who when i ask them how they're doing first things first they talk about their boyfriends #and how those boyfriends tried to break up with them multiple times already but oh they just KNOW they actually love them so much #and probably are just scared of caring about somebody #like #you living like this?? this is how you live???? this is a priority for you and the subject of a majority of your thoughts? #it seems like it #god #like i have this one friend and literally nothing seems to matter to them as much as their bf #it's fucking insane to me i'm sorry #they tell me they have a problem and i'm like what is it. and they tell me their boyfriend tried to break up or cheated on them again #and like??? #they had their most important exams of their education up to this day in that week #as did all my peers #and me #and that person was just like 'i don't really care i haven't been studying in months cause i'm too fucked up and mentally ill and alt #i just want to get those exams behind me however and then i can party with my boyfriend again' LIKE HELLO?? #how do you live like that #i'm not saying it's wrong to be in love i mean of course it's beautiful but i don't understand putting everything second #after the romantic part #having romance ALWAYS come first #as in #it's your priority in life #god. #i will never understand. #mine
