#it’s the overacting for me

[fluent-in-lesbianism]

I interviewed a kid last night and she told me how she doesn’t have many friends at school but she makes up for it by having a ton of friends online through her blog, and bc I was in work mode I didn’t immediately connect blog with tumblr so when she asked if I’d heard of something called tumblr, I spent the next 10 or so minutes of the interview earning a fucking Oscar for my performance as Clueless Facebook Millennial #182

#me: ‘wait is that the one elon musk just bought?’ 🤣 #it’s the overacting for me #but it got the job done #she thought I was funny for not knowing the difference between tumblr and twitter #I saved my reputation and what’s left of my dignity #can y’all even imagine if a client recognized me???? from fucking tumblr?! #I’d quit #move to Montana and start up a horse ranch #only 3 people live in Montana anyway #and I doubt any of ‘em have wifi #I’d be safe up there

[vaguely-concerned]

me: *thinking about kira in her thematically significant white tank top* you know maybe it is worth it to keep going after all

#I love her in her full uniform too but when the tank top comes out. that's the real shit #when the sleeves come off to show that she's stubbornly and earnestly doing some Rebuilding among the ruins. yeah #star trek #star trek ds9 #ds9 #kira nerys #also the way kira's emotions are so big that they express themselves in her whole body is everything to me #'overacting' my ass why do so many people hate joy and wonder and sincerity and kira's expressive shoulders

Jade was always odd

Middleman's Love decided to go full-clown on us, but . . . Jade was always living in another BL in Bed Friend.

And the man was always a mess.

That was the first episode of Bed Friend! The man has always been quirky. Hell, he snort-nose-bubble cried when King picked out the ring for Uea!

This fool is a believer in everyone being in a relationship because he is an innocent angel who still believes in fake shit like Santa and soulmates.

He is eccentric and is going to drive everyone crazy next week with his love for karaoke because he has never been capable of reading the room.

He likes doing random corny stunts like posing as a mannequin while waiting for his pharmacist because like a 54-year old dad, he thinks it's super funny.

Hijinks and shenanigans are this man's specialties.

Which is why his best friends are Uea, who needs some light in his life, and King, who finds his kooky behavior endearing.

Jade's watch was snitching on him, yet he was thinking, "I'm gonna match-make the hell out of the interns!" He is operating off of one brain cell, and it's being stretched thin between his friends, his job, and his family.

Y'all let my man live!

I don't call them Yellow/Orange Oddities for nothing!

THEY'RE ODD!

#middleman's love #the colors mean things #Jade is odd #That's why he is yellow and orange #This show is a mess #so of course I like it #I came for the colors #and I'm staying for the overacting #yes Domundi #give me eighth grade theater production realness

#THANK YOU YES SUCH A GUY TO ME!! #svs3 #my lil moshang kid. Look at him go!! #THE GOTH COLORING JUST COMES NATURALLY TO HIM! NO MAKEUP! THATS THE POWER OF ICE DEMON SLAYAGE! #watched dune the other night and the sandworms gave me brainworms #that convo would make a little more sense with MBJ but XJ would rather pull his nails out than admit weakness to his king father #he has a much more communicative relationship w SQH. hard to worry about looking pathetic when you’re literally talking to shang qinghua #anyways me having this whole sketchbook on the stovetop for this… serendipitous #he does for real have like migraines and demon fibromyalgia. thanks to the Poisonings. but he does also WAY overact it to get out of stuff #also worlds thinnest face 0 acting ability #unlike MBJ he is very communicative. most of what he has to communicate is disgust and displeasure #also thinkin bout how he has 2 guys in his life who show their devotion to their lovers by making food for them. thats literally love #XJ: i can condone rpf but I draw the line at badly written rpf 😤😤😤

Gold and Silver are good kids and Gold likes to show up unannounced to Lance's house post-game to bother Silver and Silver is like 'ugh great just what I need a loud annoying weirdo' but they are neither loud nor annoying while they hang out they just quietly sit on the floor reading magazines abt pokemon or playing video games and sometimes Gold will shove something in Silver's face like 'WHOA CHECK THIS OUT' and Silver will be like 'can you quiet down. What stupid thing could possibly get you that excited' as if he wouldn't also be equally excited about the very cool article about Sharpedo Gold just found

#spitblaze says things #i just thing gold and silver are two different flavors of neurodivergent #gold has the overactive adhd kind and had issues w volume and impulse control #silver has the quiet (traumatized) autistic kind where he basically makes his way thru life by playing 4d Social Expectation chess #v good at masking. unfortunately his mask is aggression #gold doesnt care hes hot garbage with social cues too but makes zero effort to mask or compensate #its fine tho they both have the same special interest. Pokemon #(also gold makes a very good compression stim. silver will just be like 'will you lay on me please' and gold is like 'sure thing buddy :)' #and theyre just like that. on the floor. like cats. clair doesnt really know what to make of it but silver doesnt seem bothered #so its probably fine) #pokemon #preciousmetalshipping #(i mean i guess lol. either way they are Best Fwiends) #trainer gold #rival silver #idk why im so invested in these two. johto isnt even in my top 5 #pokemon gsc

Arya: Dad! I overheard people talking about killing you! They said one hand had already died, so why couldn't another?! They also said something about a bastard and a book? Oh and the fat one mentioned a princess being pregnant!

Ned: *Knows that Jon Arryn was murdered, knows about and has been going over the book that Jon was looking through before his death, just went to see one of Robert's bastards that Jon had also been to see, and hears about Daenerys being pregnant from Varys literally a few pages later* I'm sure this means nothing, I'm not going to give this any further thought.

#ned stark #arya stark #asoiaf #the fact that he doesn't think about this at all cracks me up #even if you thought it was just your child's overactive imagination wouldn't the details tip you off??? #also slay for Arya uncovering plots even way back in agot #spying on the master of whispers? queen shit #if Ned could've put 2 and 2 together Varys would've had his plotting foiled by a 9 year old 💀

Not Every Film I Watch In 2024

25. The Sleeping Tiger (1954)

#the sleeping tiger #the sleeping tiger (1954) #2024filmgifs #my gifs #holy moly i was NOT prepared for such psychosexual depravity #even though i should have guessed #cos Dirk Bogarde #that was such a strange precursor to both Victim and The Servant #and also totally different #i was a bit bored at the start #but then my goodness it actually surprised me #with its twists and turns of character development #and motivation #and tho i was totally ready to scoff at the antiquated psychobabble #it actually struck a bit of a nerve #and i couldn't laugh and tried very hard not to react #luckily Dirk's overacting there helped #poor baby Dirk he cannot help himself #the lighting really started to annoy me #with its unnecessary and super obvious spot lights #clumsier than i expect from Brit film #and made me wanna rewatch Pygmalion #which is exquisite of course #i also really wanted Alexis Smith to use her riding crop on Dirk #and step on him with some very wicked heels #and generally domme the fuck out of him #but then the movie distracted me with its actual plot #oh well

I saw a post awhile ago about someone saying they wanted to be a woman with no boobs and a penis and like...I’m sort of agender (gender just doesn’t resonate with me in any way) but I’m afab and boy howdy I’d LOVE to have a penis. Do you KNOW how much easier that would make it to hike and camp with OAB? Every time my dad or brother are just like “hey brb gonna water a tree” I seethe with jealousy. I want a penis just for ease of peeing please. I have no idea how to tag this.

#oab is overactive bladder btw #I have issues with it #and urge issues too #the thought of being able to just whip it out and go? #you kidding me WHY DON'T WE ALL COME WITH THAT OPTION #tmi maybe?

Okay, y'all. I had An Dream (TM) last night that I need to run by you, because, in short, What the Fuck Was Actually Going On. I Need to Know.

It started in a weird rundown Target Starbucks, where I had somehow been hired to work/cover someone's shift for just one day and was convinced that I had worked before in the waking world (i.e. not in dreams). I also seemed to be aware that I was dreaming and was discussing how weird it was that you remember things and histories in dreams that haven't happened in real life, that it looked awfully familiar to somewhere I had been before and where I was convinced that I had worked (for the record, I haven't, though I have worked at similarly crappy kiosk Starbucks and Mmm No Thanks).

I got a strange order for an excessively complicated drink from a customer I didn't see. The lights went out and I couldn't find any coworkers. Then someone appeared, gave me a book with a diagram on the cover and a wad of cash, and told me to follow the diagram and it would take me to some place I was happy (?!?!?!?).

Okay, so. It's a dream, what else do you do. I follow the diagram, and after some misadventures and side quests, find a fancy bookstore that looks like a Barnes and Noble but isn't. I wander into the equally fancy cafe, then back out. I get on an elevator with a bunch of other people to go to the first floor, to browse the stacks. The door shut, off we went... and then did not come out anywhere near an ordinary bookstore. In fact, we were informed, we had been sent on a seven-year adventure to solve a dangerous mystery, and it started NOW.

The basic premise of this adventure was that you went through different doors and ended up in different places/times in the world. There were also complicated rules governing which door would open and when; you were given a watch that would turn red or green depending on the portal status of various nearby doors. You could use a door to escape your current location at any moment (presuming it was open) but the more you jumped, the more difficult it got to escape where you were. There were also Trolley Problem-esque moral conundrums where if you used the door for yourself, it might prevent a friend or teammate from getting through and being trapped. We were all being hunted by a villain named Ograndar, whose name couldn't be said aloud or it would summon him (we started calling him O and/or writing it down). He looked like an average young man in a green sweater. It wasn't specified what would happen if he caught us, but it wouldn't be good. It was also implied that he was a reincarnated Roman emperor of some kind (one of the crazy ones) and if we went through a door that took us to Ancient Rome, we would be trapped forever and unable to get home.

I traveled to various EXTREMELY detailed locations that I remembered despite never being there before: a water park in Abu Dhabi, a noodle shop in Taiwan, a giant mega-mart in America, and then the last place: a regional KGB office sometime in the USSR. The officers were speaking Russian, but I was able to understand it, and I was also apparently the person in charge of hunting down The Villain Known As O in this time period. The clue lay in a cheesy niche 1980s fantasy novel, but we only had one copy. It was in Dutch, except for one page that was inexplicably in Latin.

Myself and my KGB-dream-minions were all trying to read this book when my alarm went off and I woke up.

Please tell me what the hell was going on.

#hilary for ts #this is not the first time my subconscious has been Overactive #or for that matter given me excellent novel ideas #but also please tell what the fuck was going on #was that the devil or

Urgent prayer request:

Hi I really don’t know why I suddenly feel this way but I’ve just had this dreadful pessimistic feeling come over me today where usually I have fight and optimism in the Lord especially but today I am having these awful feelings of if things don’t get better or I don’t even know? Just like in the next 10 years or something I don’t see the point of carrying in like I could just k word myself and that will probably be the best thing to do and I don’t wanna feel like that I don’t at all!!!! :(

Of course 🖤

#prayer request #i often feel the same and when i do i am reminded of a moment i had a few years ago #when i was sitting outside in my doom and gloom asking God why He created me #and in my head i heard the words 'your purpose is simply meant to Be' #then right afterwards i saw a shooting star and idk it just felt like the words were more than my overactive imagination #you may not know your purpose right now #and the future may seem scary #but God is with you #and maybe right now your purpose is simply meant to Be too

As long as it's an AU - Michiru- (3)

I absolutely hate it about myself how quickly I get discouraged by the littlest touch of wind, how easy it is to close those gates back and crawl into my hole again at the first sign of vulnerability. But I guess I might as well treat this an an exercise in resilience, so, come on, finish this.

One thing I never actually realized, being new to this and all, is that everything I've written so far in here, on this page, namely part 1, and part 2, is a big fat AU. Okay? okay. A.k.a. living in my own world, eh, so be it.

so lemme go on

after she rejoins him at his new suite, things change a bit between them, he sees her a bit differently and feels more comfortable around her

also, she realizes she, um, cares more for him that she herself realized, and is less defensive around him

he remains involved in the investigation, but from the shadows, so as Light and everyone else buy into his death and lower their guard

the case progresses as it does in the normal universe, I guess (I'm only focusing on her POV at this time, and her place is not to question decisions and strategies, but to help him as she can, routine work, surveillance, papers, research....as well as life and the pressure on his shoulders)

when it's time for the final confrontation with Light, since everything is put in place strategically and since it was safe for Near to be there physically, L decides to add the final insult to injury and be there as well, revealing to Light that he did not, in fact, die in the first place.

Light orders Mikami to write all their names in the death note, but L tries to break Mikami mentally, showing him how Kira is no god...

Mikami's mind snaps and, seeing how he cannot kill them with the note, he draws a gun and manages to shoot once before being taken down, shoots at L.

Maeve jumps in front of L to protect him, takes the shot (but, sly girl, she's wearing a bulletproof vest, perhaps courtesy of Watari or something), so she ends up with just a bruise

But L is absolutely shocked that someone is willing not merely to risk their lives for him, for the purpose of justice, but to actually die for him, as a person, to save his individual life. And this marks the definite shift in his thinking, as he becomes willing to at least try to believe that not ALL people are cunning and deceitful, but that there MAY be...other feelings that await discovery.

I was showing my online friend my OC (who is a brown skinned Arab) and I said under the picture I sent “hearr me out!” they said no and they then said “I hate Arab women” Am i overreacting or??????? it just really bothered me tbh. + Theyre not even Arab and i can’t tell if they’re being serious or not. I’m also Palestinian and they KNOW that, i can’t understand why someone would say that 😭

"I hate Arab women" WHAT IS GOING ON😭

#you are not overacting because why would someone say that??? #please tell me you are not friends with this person anymore #ask #aichmonarc

We have not taken off yet, but the people sitting behind me on the plane (we are all sitting near-ish the wing and can see it out the window) are currently discussing classic Twilight Zone episode "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet," which is also what I think about literally every time I sit near the wing on a plane.

#saw that episode for the first time as a middle schooler with an overactive imagination and it traumatized me #pretty sure the next time i was on a night flight and could see the wing out the window i had a mini anxiety attack of my own #anyways if the gremlins get me you all heard it here first
