Hello, im wehaveagathering from my main blog, im kind of obsessed with your hockey poetry edits and I think your blog is great! I guess I kind of have a dumb question, where do you find the images you use for your edits? Did you say Getty in your tags?? I’ve gotten into making icons recently (and i have ideas for poetry edits hrrrghhh) but it’s hard to find high res images. Thanks for your time and I hope you have a nice day :)
first of all thank you so much 🥹 and second that’s absolutely not a dumb question!! i do pull a lot of images from getty and i’ll also download pictures from sports articles (i got a lot of the hugheses pictures from online access articles, for example), or sometimes from instagram/facebook/twitter if an account is public. freely admitting that i am not technologically advanced? inclined? in the slightest here, but the image editing software that you use and how you import/export photos with it makes a difference in the quality of them as well!
if you haven’t seen them yet, i would also recommend checking out @simmyfrobby @national-hockey-lesbian @hauntedppgpaints @tapedsleeves @starscelly and @captainbradmarchand’s blogs just off the top of my head!!! they might know more places to get high res images and also i love their work 💕🫶

Me: Enji’s a really complex character and I’d really like to talk more about his development and motivation. His character is fascinating and I think a lot of people overlook it based on first impressions and refuse to give him a chance to improve from season 2.
Y’all: omg no he’s terrible ur condoning child abuse!!

its the way I know byler and independent El is endgame simply because I know for a fact The Duffers would never be able to look themselves in the mirror again knowing a bunch of film / media students and professionals could immediately pull up 10 years of content proving they abandoned their setup if they didn't.
People would take their production company away from them for pulling some shit like that LMFAO they would never risk going shallow for the sake of their less literate fans are you joking
(like. I'm 900% sure "we aren't game of thrones" has more than one meaning for Matt and Ross. It also means "we don't abandon our clearly setup narratives and plot twists" the way GoT did solely because David & D.B. couldn't write lmfaoooo)

i love it when people draw blade in groups of people (like w silver wolf & kafka for example) bc like 80-90% of the time he’s just. standing there. while everyone else has motion going on.
there’s nothing fundamentally wrong with the pieces i just think it’s hilarious that his default is just 🧍

I like to think of the Courier as a feral raccoon foaming at its mouth that is throwing its trash around the entire Mojave

Local physically disabled person here, mesmerized by the inability of some folks to treat others like they would like to be treated in the disabled community. You can have as hard a life as there is, but there is no excuse to be telling people they're faking their disabilities, or sending them death threats and suicide bait, bc they disagreed with how you treat others and decided to say something.
The cognitive dissonance on top is they think others are talking about their disability, like anyone addressing this with them just wanted to leave them in the street to die, and that's just not true. It's the ableism and harassment that's the problem, and no matter who brings it up, or how nicely they do so, dude is determined to misunderstand. Every person saying "valid but I draw the line at harassment" whether they mean well or not gets blasted bc this guy wants to instead assume they're either faking their disability to make a point, or that they're hated for needing a wheelchair. Nah bro, it's cuz you're being an asshole that folks are pissed at you rn, not bc you're physically disabled. Kudos for making yourself blue in the face, determined to fill your veins entirely with salt I guess? Good job sticking it to the man? Idk. You do you.
Anyway, some people are so determined to die on the hill of "I am angry and misunderstood" that they will fully reject the reality in front of them, and then twist it around to fuel their own bad faith confirmation biases. Ableism will fuck you up. It's such a deep-seeded problem that when that shit gets you, all the flags end up being a visual sea of red, regardless of their actual color. It will have you feeling oppressed so hard that you'll start being ableist blindly to everyone that has a higher score on the fate lottery than you do, just for looking at you wrong. It'll mess you up so hard that anyone that disagrees with you, about anything, becomes an oppressor.
Good luck learning and growing out of the corner of that box you painted yourself into, bestie. Sorry in advance if it's dark in there. Finding the light again is always a process, but sincerely, I wish you luck.

“But the GA” babygirl...I'm sorry, but giving a damn about how well the general audience understands this particular show would be like a graduate student at MIT walking into a remedial 10th chemistry class and asking them for their opinions on rocket propulsion.
The lack of understanding and experience they have with good stories and how narratives are told matters, especially when you consider that every person making stranger things has experience with telling good stories. They have spent decades critically consuming stories and learning about who makes them.
The Duffers are not over there worrying about what TruckDriver012 is saying about their story because he grew up in the Bible Belt and thinks they deserve more cishet white male rep because they like Mike, or about MlvnLvrMills saying “but byler would come out of left field because I think the monologue was romantic." Stop letting this anti-intellectual streak define who you go to for opinions. I'm BEGGING.
