#i've dropped a lot of shows

[kaownah]

i finally finished all the liquors and im currently catching up on our dating sim, and i gotta say... the difference in quality is insane. the acting, chemistry, writing, development, pacing, etc, all in two series with equal runtimes (8 short 15 min episodes). our dating sim is giving everything, down to the little moments and character arcs, and the lead couple is just so! sweet!! all the liquors was pretty much the definition of stilted and forgettable, but this proves it has nothing to do with runtime, and everything to do with how you put a show together

#our dating sim #all the liquors #korean bl #kdrama #like i usually don't like to just shit on shows or whatever #i've dropped a lot of shows #like i refuse to waste time on a show i don't like #but i figured: hey its only eight 15 min episodes so lets just power through #and like #tbh im glad i did bc i really like being able to compare and contrast quality #i was excited for p much nothing in all the liquors #the lead couple was so awkward #casting a model with no experience as the lead love interest? #unless they absolutely nail the audition its a bad idea #and he was... not good #jun hyung was okay but poor guy was working so hard all 8 eps to get some kind of chemistry that just wasn't there #i would like to see how he does with a better scene partner #and just... the pacing... it was so boring... #and the obstacles were overcome so ridiculously quickly with no real thought #idk #anyway! #andie reviews

All That's Left follows two journalists and their friends in post-apocalyptic United States as they travel from the fallen east coast megalopolis Opportunity back to Los Angeles, crossing through a harsh wasteland overrun with zombies— only to find out that there is a lot more life left than what the protected cities want them to believe. On their journey they meet dozens of people living their lives as peaceful as possible away from military forces, corporations, and corrupt governments; and they learn that the same mutated ghouls that took down Opportunity are spreading rapidly through the country, destroying everything in their path. Will this finally be the end of the world as we know it?

#all that's left #edit:misc #nuclearedits #so um. hi. this is an original story i've been working on since 2016 and i love it so so much. sorry #it's not a tv show but i would love for it to be a tv show do you understand. my vision. are you seeing the vibes of this #it's BRIGHT. it's COLORFUL. it's FUN. there's so many cool characters and it's focused a lot on like #the connections between the main characters and all that #mac and layla (the journalists) go from having to write about this megalopolis which. if anything is just. a city version of a nepo baby #to writing about the people who are still living out there who are being completely overlooked by the safe cities and everything #everything really is not that bad out there!! in fact all of the misery that IS still in the wasteland is created specifically by like #the safe cities who keep snatching away supply drops from people who need it etc etc. and governments pretending that #there's no smaller settlements out there anymore and all that #and also there's zombies. ghouls. i call them ghouls but they have many funky names across the whole world in this universe #anyway yeah there's a lot more to this universe already because well 8 years in the making LMAO so i have another edit incoming #for the fictional season 2. aka book 2. yes there's a book 2. there's also a book 3 and 4. sorry for being insane #the linked playlists has songs for book 1-3 right now :] #if you have any questions PLEAAASSEEEE send me asks. preferably asks and not dms because tumblr dms suck ass #but i would love to talk more about this :^)

would you all call me cringe or stupid or hashtag cancel me if I make a fursona based off of stolas from h*lluva boss but i make them Fat and very fluffy

#i've really dropped off of the show #mostly due to learning some #very Unpog things about the main creator #but I enjoy this character's specific design a lot #but I can make it Better. fatter even....and fluffier

[californianedgeworth]

the amount of people who point out Steven as some kind of money hungry villain manipulating Shane and Ryan in the whole Watcher debacle is so annoying. clearly they just liked Shane and Ryan a lot better and want to take culpability away from them. but all 3 of them made this decision, as far as we know they're all equally accountable. stop making conspiracies based off people's lives you don't know so you can continue to justify your parasocial relationship jfc

#lol i never posted about the channel here so it's kind of out of nowhere. but idk if people rlly read most of my txtposts anyways #but it's so weird. like there are so many comments like “I bet Steven is the one pulling the strings” #like WHAT? #i wasn't really into Steven's personality or shows either. he does kind of give off a materialistic impression with the eating gold #and the Tesla i just found out he has #but you don't know Shane and Ryan either. just bcus they gave off a more favorable impression doesn't mean they can't possibly do this #i find it way more likely this was a decision they all agreed on. if one of them had deep-seated secret doubts they should've spoken up #i really liked unsolved and i watched watcher a lot at the start (all of puppet history especially) but i've barely watched in like a year #like the videos where they had on like bdg and jarvis johnson and the one where they played minecraft #and i started some of the ghost files and puppet history that came out last year but kind of dropped off through the halfway point #so when the streaming announcement came out thankfully i felt like “yeah i'm glad i'm not as into this channel anymore” #“so the idea of buying a streaming service of a youtube channel for $6 a month doesn't even cross my mind” #so the sense of betrayal doesn't really run as deep #imagine if i'd been more into the last season of puppet history or it came out more recently #how much more would i be devastated over this? #my txtstuff

I’m confused about what that anon thinks therapy is because most of the time I talk to my therapist about how my current week has been and how that’s affected me. Like I’m getting a massage this weekend and I talked to my therapist about that earlier this week. OFMD being canceled was probably mentioned in a lot of therapy sessions this week!

First of all, HI BONNIE HELLO BONNIE <3

Second of all, deadass! 😭

I really do think it was just an all-out attempt to make me feel Some Kind of Way/provoke me however possible, but lol Nah. Because yeah, it was just ridiculous shdjklsdhjkls.

Me: lost something very important to me. is subsequently sad. just so happens to have a therapy appointment that same week. brings it up because it's on the list of Things That Have Made Me Sad over the past few weeks, as one typically does in therapy.

Random people on the internet: 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

#Answered #safeinpeetasarms #LIKE HSDJKSHLDKS #'oh you're sad? perish <3' #like bonnie can you even imagine what would have happened if mj2 had received the same fate as ascendant #CAN YOU EVEN IMAGINE HSJKLDHSLKDS #17 year old me would have dropped the fuck out #man sometimes i think about that whole ordeal--the fate of the divergent franchise i mean #and i've been thinking about it a lot NOW of course lol because man #they sat in the pre-production void for so so long #the date of alleged release crept closer with nothing to show for it #then they were like 'lol tv movie actually' #and then the cast said 'lol absolutely not' #and then they were like 'okay lol tv SHOW with new characters actually' #and then that just. Never Happened Either. #like being strung along for YEARS like that? holy shit #but a big difference there was a lot of people had already checked out/were done by the time insurgent came out PFFFF #PARTICULARLY when allegiant came out #but man #it's still hard out here #ALSO YES MA'AM BONNIE GET THAT MASSAGE HSDJKLS #AS YOU SHOULD

[aeolianblues]

one last thing I will say on that topic. Americans getting upset about you calling out Zionism. When you're not talking about Judaism or in fact, about religion at all. When you're talking about a national military funded by a country that has been dropping bombs on the middle east since the 1980s. But then I suppose when people who are so so so comfortable with equating a whole religion, or further a whole entire group of multiple ethnicities, with simply 'terrorism', are criticised on any aspect of their wrongdoings of course they must think we're talking about their whole religion. Literally every word is a projection.

#I lost all respect for that person honestly. I used to think they were quite cool. I put up with a lot of blatantly horrendous shit thinking #'surely it's only a defensive thing. Surely they're only talking about the sadness within their community rather than actively supporting #the mass killings of thousands of people. Surely they're a teacher they've got to have that empathy with kids being murdered' #No! The fucking full clownshow. And now I've been feeling like an idiot all day— like why did I go 'let it slide' x 100 #why should *they* walk away feeling like they've got some sort of moral superiority here and why should I feel like I've been struck down? #Why am I the idiot that didn't block them four months ago #Anyway sorry to everyone who's had to watch me spam about one (1) negative interaction *all day long* it will subside soon #I'm just stinging from the fucking. Utter blindness. #We've always said someone's comfort doesn't override someone else's right to survival #as a literal genderqueer person they KNEW that. They'd uttered the same fucking sentence #but alas the pinkwashing that makes me so frustrated with Americans sometimes. It magically doesn't apply where racism is concerned ✨😃 #The US really is bombs dropped by rainbow-painted aircrafts; that meme should not be this accurate #anyway I'm glad that person is not in my life anymore. I'm glad my dash has one less abomination to repeatedly show up on it #and I have every right to be angry and I will be. I just won't bother you lovely folks with it

Oh this hurts

"Wait, you're jealous" // "I'm not jealous, I'm worried. You've changed. // "You're right. I have changed. I used to be a nervous mess, and now-" // "The Whisper is manipulating your mind, your emotions" // "I know. For the better."

"It's so disappointing to see you turn to envy" // "I'm not jealous. I'm heartbroken." // "Nicholas, I've moved on. You are holding on to an outdated view of me that is the source of much unhappiness" // “You're creating an artificial state of happiness. It is a complete disconnection from true emotion”. // You don't have to be heartbroken. You can be happy".

#that foreshadowing though #I think I've seen this film before #I know I've done a lot with this concept but the scene was good #Wait does this imply sticky is what Curtain would be like if he dropped the facade? Since sticky becomes like curtain when brain washed? #Oh my and Yes I know the Benedict brother's convo is out of order I needed the panels to match I'm sorry #fan theory that Curtain's inventions all started as failed attempts to cure his narcolepsy so he could be adopted #then he realized that that curing anxiety and inducing fake happiness gave him control over others #I'm watching the writers with their little sticky reynie letter writing conflict #are they gonna have the boys parallel Curtain and Benedict again #Is that why they killed off Sticky's parents? So he also has no one? #Cause Kate has Milligan Reynie has Ms. Perumal and Constance has Benedict #All Sticky has is an aunt who couldn't be bother to show up for the season finale #Oh well I guess we'll find out #the mysterious benedict society #mysterious benedict society #tmbs #tmbs disney #mbs #mbs disney #mbs s2 #mbs season 2 #sticky washington #reynie muldoon #ld curtain #mr curtain #ledroptha curtain #nathaniel benedict #nicholas benedict #mr benedict

LMAO so funny thing is everyone knows the whole Sonic and Shadow looking alike thing is total bullshit and I totally agree those comments they try to pull in the games and show(s? I'm not technically a Sonic fan I dunno if it's multiple) make basically no sense to me but then my Mom comes in while watching Sonic Prime and says "So what, Sonic has a brother or something?" and this whole other world has opened up to me and I've seen the truth of it all

#so to clarify I do not consider myself a Sonic fan since I have never played a Sonic game and I've never read any of the comics #and idk the lore cuz I've never really bothered to watch other people play it and I have watched some of the shows #y'know my grandma had 4Kids so sometimes I would catch Sonic X on TV #but literally most of my knowledge of the Sonic franchise is just having people talk to me about it #like when I was a kid my grandma babysat these kids who were older than me I forget how old I was like under 10 I think #and one of the kid's big interest was Sonic so I would just sit and listen to him talk about Sonic the entire time I was there #he would play the games too I think but my brain didn't process any of that so I have no actual memory of the screen #I would mostly just pay attention to him talking cuz he would talk about it while playing it was great #so that is the base of my knowledge and then after my grandma stopped babysitting them it was radio silence #until y'know people would occasionally bring stuff up in videos I'd watch and I'd look @ videos about people talking abt Sonic #occasionally and see like memes or YTPs of Sonic or y'know abridged stuff #but I literally never actually watched a Sonic game until Frontiers came out and then The Murder Of Sonic the Hedgehog #and Sonic Prime is the first Sonic show I properly sat down and watched which show is great btw I enjoy it a lot #but yeah and it was vaguely purposeful like I was keeping myself away cuz I know how I am about stuff and I WILL try to learn EVERYTHING #if I get too interested in Sonic as a franchise #oh I did play Unleashed sometime after it first came out and couldn't get past like the first fuckin level but tbf I was like 7 years old #possibly 8 years old cuz I'm not 100% sure how much later I got the game but like I was really bad @ any game that wasn't just like #spamming buttons since I grew up on fighting games lmao #but yeah I dropped the game almost immediated I do not count that for anything #but yeah long story short: all my knowledge is second hand like I still think I know a good amount for what it's worth but #I wouldn't trust my own knowledge

tagged by @tortoisesshells! thank you as always

Favorite color: green. what shade? yes.

Last song: i think i left off somewhere in a triangle strategy battle themes compilation on youtube but i 1) can't say for sure if it was the last music last week and 2) don't have any way of seeing which theme it left off on. i want to say it was unwavering spear - roland's battle bc i kinda remember thinking "yes this is a good one to end the workweek on" but who knows

Last movie: emma 2020. speaking of shades of green --

Currently watching: i am dragging one of my friends into hornblower though we've just done one so far and we're on hiatus at the moment bc they're adjusting after a move

Other stuff I watched this year: shadow and bone s2, strange new worlds s2, hornblower, and p&p 1995 are the only new (to me) shows i've done this year -- the rest have been rewatches which i can't really keep track of

Shows I dropped this year: man_tapping_head_meme.jpg you can't drop a show if you barely ever start watching shows

Currently reading: i have just finished northanger abbey (kickstarter to put john thorpe down) which means next up in the austen collection is the one and only persuasion!

i will tag @ikeracity @wanderdreamer @daniel-bryans and whoever else wants to do this!

#99% sure the last shows i've dropped were lot & flash back when i was into dctv #i don't even remember which one i dropped first or if i dropped both at the same time #i guess shoutout to thorpe for getting catherine to northanger even if it was. lies. but still. #as i told bolt. he talks like he's chatgpt #may northanger abbey be a warning tale of ai #chilly chats #tortoisesshells

[not-poignant]

Hi! I’m really enjoying Stain! I started reading it right after finishing Wind because I loved your writing so much, it’s actually got me back into reading fanfic after a long slump, so thank you for that! I know this is a ridiculous ask and I’m sorry for even asking, but I was just wondering if the therapist character is going to be prominent moving forward? Tim is the name of my abuser and I know it’s silly but I find it pretty triggering seeing that name when I’m not expecting it. It caught me off guard in the last chapter and now I’m just a bit shaken and worried that it’s going to kill my enjoyment of the rest of the fic. Basically I’m just wondering if he’ll be there a lot and specifically mentioned by name? Again sorry for asking I know it’s dumb. Thank you for writing these beautiful fics, I hope you’re having a great day!

Hi anon,

As someone with PTSD, who has found character names triggering in the past, all I can suggest is that you stop reading and take care of yourself, until you reach a point where the name doesn't cause the same reaction in you anymore.

I've written a story about a character who shared a name with a rapist in my past, and for most of my life I would never have been able to do that, and couldn't even be friends with people who shared his name, and then one day I could write a long multi-chaptered story, and have a lot less problems with the name. Hopefully one day you get a bit more distance that way as well. Therapy and a lot of time helped, and also just not forcing myself to be around it until I knew I could handle it better.

But until then, it's not good to push yourself, and I am not planning this story, but the therapist is definitely mentioned again by name and will likely be in at least one scene in the future.

Since you already know this makes you shaken, the best option is to simply stop reading. It's not dumb to ask at all, you're looking out for yourself, and that way I can give you an informed answer. :)

Reading a story you're enjoying is not worth being triggered, and there are millions of other fics on AO3, and quite a lot of them are good!

#asks and answers #cw ptsd #cw rape #cw abuse #a stain that won't dissolve #he's definitely mentioned in future chapters with both harvey and sebastian #i'm a big advocate for either carefully controlling exposure to serious triggers #or avoiding them entirely until you know or can better manage your reactions #and i've had PTSD / CPTSD since 1997 #so as someone with like 20+ years experience with this #my advice is very much - stop reading #it's not an ideal outcome #but PTSD isn't a great disorder and it's just better to not mess with it #and it's not like we're running out of TV shows / movies / books / anime / manga etc. to read y'know? #there were a lot of things i had to drop because of this rapist's name #and there's another rapist in my past who i still can't like read #if a MC has his name #if anything it motivates me to be more active in addressing my triggers #but i also have to respect them for my sanity so sdaklfsa yeah i'm a big fan of team #'you have the knowledge now to look after yourself #'and all that is left is to look after yourself' <333

Ok I've been trying to ignore the "Sophie posted Sansa on insta" and "the official GOT accounts posted the Jon/Sansa reunion out of nowhere" stuff because I HATE getting my hopes up and yet here I fuckin am. like a fool.

#i genuinely dont even think theyd go romantic in the sequel #but i just want her there #but also i might drop out of the fandom if she is lol cause i assume a lot of people will be v mad #like I've never gotten hate i assume because i stay pretty isolated here on Tumblr #and dont write canon mostly #and also i came into the fandom online post show #but im guessing it will get bad again if the sequel does happen #im rambling sorry

[menaceborn]

I haven't been in a very star wars-y mindset lately, but i'll probably return to here either when andor s2 comes out or when i inevitably rewatch season 1

#i by chance heard (one of the) intro(s) to an andor episode and nearly started bawling on the spot #it's hard for me to explain the emotion that show makes me feel but it's a lot #anyway i've not been doing great. ended up having to drop out of... idk what it'd be in english... college? uni? of whatever #because of stress/schizophrenia but it's alright. i'll figure something out

[autistic-shaiapouf]

I’m living vicariously through you currently!!! It seems like so much fun !

You're so sweet!! I am having a BLAST out here, meeting other cosplayers has been so so fun, having that connection for a second feels incredible, and so does looking at all the merch, looking at all the vocaloid stuff and suddenly feeling very in place (as opposed to out of place lmao) with all my interests. I'm still here for a 3rd day tomorrow too 💖

Obligatory post of some of the things I've gotten so far:

The miku album still has me REELING, 14 year old me would be losing his mind having a physical copy of a miku album, also went wild finding those pics on the bottom right, I have no idea what purpose they serve but I saw chimera ants and started grabbing 💖

I met another cosplayer dressed as the same character as me!! They gave me butterfly stickers and I put them on my con badge, I put one on my hand and that's gonna be the first sticker I put on my laptop! I still have some prepwork for my outfit tomorrow but I'm excited to go as my own character and rep bug furries bc no one talks about us 😭 the days have all been pretty long but they're all enjoyable and I'm so glad I braved driving 3 1/2 hours to get to this, I'm having so much fun and I'm glad that's so evident in how I've been talking about this 💖💖💖

#trying to not show the full extent of all the voca stuff ive been getting 😭 i like them... the loids.. #actually going to a voca trivia panel rn! dropped by my hotel room to drop off my stuff + violin and all #got some prints i gotta find room for at home too 💖 honestly one of the most fun things is to just sit down by a bug traffic area #and start seeing which outfits you recognize; makes me realize i need to watch more stuff lmao #I've also been carrying around a plushie prop i made all day and i lowkey wanna carry him around to more places #I'm wrapping him in my sweater bc I'm cold and wanna bring it but it's so funny that i look like I'm swaddling him like a baby #he's so cold... i can't just let him freeze... #but yes!! ive been having a lot of fun and I'm gonna keep posting about it bc i love to share things that make me happy :) #also i dropped my phone on the con floor sometime yesterday and only got it back this morning lmao #so there's good people here too lmao!! #thank you this is such a fun ask to get 💖💖💖 #asks #shai speaks

#while i have nothing to back this up—and i very well could be wrong considering that i've never followed the production of the rookie and #only got into it recently #i really think the shift in the writing quality in terms of chenford is a product of the show trying to cater to the fans #and trying to make the ship go canon faster #because the way they were written in previous seasons was definitely a lot better and felt more satisfying #and while season 5 delivered at least for the first two eps—they've completely rushed the development #they introduced all these hurdles and emotional moments with absolutely no payoff #and while i'm probably wrong about the reasons for the drop in the quality of the writing. idk. #it's just bothering me and that post i just reblogged put it into words better than i could #neethu speaks #/negativity
