i was tagged by @thenelse to do 8 shows to get to know me better...ok honestly i dont watch a lot of tv. i mostly watch the same shows over and over so i actually could barely list 8. fyi the first 4 are probs my favorite shows but the rest are just shows that have impacted my life in some way. please dont judge me i swear i have good taste in other things 👍

1. yellowjackets obviously because it has literally everything i could ever ask for in a tv show. it irreparably alters my brain chemistry on a weekly basis

2. always sunny in philly. i can always bond with my girl friends’ boyfriends over this one LOL. ive seen every single episode a truly embarrassing number of times and i dream of being randomly thrust into a trivia situation where there is a question about always sunny because i have an obscene amount of knowledge on always sunny lore and am 100% confident i would nail it.

3. arrested development. second only to always sunny in the making lanie laugh category. tobias funke character of all time

4. haunting of hill house. winner of the making lanie cry category. great autumnal watch, i love rewatching around halloween. bent neck lady reveal had me legitimately in shambles

5. i mean the office i guess. i watched it in high school or maybe college, mostly because my friends were always referencing it and i wanted to get the jokes...and lol i rly thought jim/pam was peak romance. luckily now im older and wiser and know jackieshauna is peak romance

6. back in college i watched all of friends because of a vaguely homoerotic bestie situation that later imploded and the one perk of losing her was that i was finally free to admit that show fucking sucks especially ross fuck that guy fr. me and my friends would have killed ross with hammers i can tell you that much

7. i used to watch bones with my parents when i was probably a little too young to be watching it. perhaps this is the origin of my fascination with morbid things

8. another childhood nostalgia show is monty python’s flying circus which i always watched with my dad. to this day we are capable of annoying everyone else in the room by having an entire conversation made up of monty python quotes (complete with bad fake accents)

EDIT BECAUSE I FORGOT THE MOST OBVIOUS ONE I KNEW I WAS MISSING SOMETHING: DARK (the german time travel one) thats actually a legit favorite of mine, took me on so many emotional journeys and made me laugh and weep and theorize and ponder. and it was good german practice 👍

well now you know, for better or worse...probably worse...anyway i nominate @chel-c-fsea @jamesv-t @movingtoparistoshootheroin @excluded-from-the-narrative ummm ermmm ehhhm... i would also say @teabookgremlin but you already got tagged...but...get double tagged i guess? lol ok i wont be offended if any of you guys dont do this but i didnt want to be boring and not tag anyone hehe <3

#theres lots of other shows ive started and enjoyed but never finished...#ive seen a little bit of most of the popular tv shows but im just not really a tv show girlie #also not really a movie girlie #but more so a movie girlie than a tv show girlie #like i think a list of 8 movies would've been a lot easier for me #and i think i wouldve made decent picks that actually reflect my personality lol

so, after much procrastination and hurdling many fears, i finally watched my #SpotifyWrapped highlights... and lets just say it's interesting.

usually, I kickstart my own yearly music journey by doing this first. so, without further ado...

music genres, nothing too surprising here. although the entrance of metal core is new. i think i went through some stuff this summer like, the absence of warped tour has kinda messed with me. it’s hard to find stuff on your own and not enjoy it in person. usually there’s punk.

apparently portland is my sound town, which seems kind of weird. of course, i love the 3 artists that come up there so maybe it's not so weird. i've always considered myself more of a seattle or philly person. #spotifywrapped also, did you read how there are queer sound towns? google it! im jelly.

top songs are interesting! hey — there's DJ Sabrina and Gojii!

#1 — a top ‘23 fav.

#2 — ah, the absence of warped tour.

#3 — summer jam and always makes me happy.

#4 — im a lush for maxo’s storytelling hiphop.

#5 — couldn’t get enough of all year. it’s my OW2/RL jam.

okay, so a bit of an expla here -- Mac Quayle is my 'writing-mode' music (usually). the soundtracks he composes are fantastic. also, spotify isn't my only streaming app fyi (i listen to others [ytmusic, bandcamp]).

either way, mac quayle is awesome.

please make it cool like true bloods and not dorky like twilight. no offense twilight, just not my cup of tequila.

When Philip Met Sireena

Chapter One: Fresh Out of the Slammer

Six months he spent in jail. He was finally let out, albeit on parole. This was the start of a new chapter in the life of Philip Trousers.

His accomplices, Hervnick Z. Snerz and Kyler Twotymer, were left to their fates. One was in permanent solitary confinement wearing a straitjacket and the other was reduced to ash on an electric chair. (Can you guess which ones?) Philip’s own evaluation assessed him as “vain”, “quite dim” and “a bigger danger to himself than others”.

During his time in prison, Philip had to learn the hard way that asking for a jar of hair gel or something other than his jumpsuit to wear would earn him five minutes doing a handstand with his pinkies. At this point, he was pretty sure the bones inside them were flatter.

Flanked by guards, the now free Philip Trousers was led to the gates of the prison, where a yellow station wagon was waiting for him. In the driver’s seat was his father, Benjamin Trousers, who looked incredibly displeased.

“Hello, Father”, Philip said as he took the passenger seat.

“Don’t talk, son. I still need time to…” the elder Trousers stopped to level his emotions. “Move on. FYI, your mother is the only one who’s looking forward to seeing you.”

“Then where is she?”

“Home. Setting up a homecoming shindig for you.”

“What’s a shindig?”

Benjamin groans and hits his forehead on the steering wheel.

——

“Philip!”, yelled Phyllis Trousers as he walked into the house.

“Hi, Mum”, he responded softly. Then he was hugged by her.

“I’m glad to have you home, Philly! Mummy missed you so much!” She then kissed the same spot on his cheek twice.

Benjamin stared with a plain expression before proceeding. “Yes, welcome home, Philip. Let’s get moving.”

“Ben! Please!”, his wife snapped at him. She regained her composure and looked at Philip again. “Let’s just try to have a good time for once.”

Phyllis made a quaint dinner for her son. As he ate, his mother maintained an expression of happiness, although she looked somewhat pained. Benjamin, on the other hand, wasn’t hiding how he felt.

Philip looked from side to side, reading his parent’s faces. The only sounds being produced were his cutlery cutting his steak/tapping the porcelain dish.

“Food alright?”, Ben asked suddenly.

“Yes, Father”, Philip replied, shocked by the silence being broken.

Phyllis shoots her husband a look that says ‘act cool’. “Philly…bet you sure missed Mummy’s cooking, didn’t you?”

“Of course.”

“Excellent.” She put on her pained smile again.

“Is something wrong, Mum? At first, you seemed actually happy to have me home. Now you…don’t.”

Her eyes went wide. Odds were that she was thinking: When did my son get so good at reading people?

“I guess you and Father both need time to ‘move on’. I understand. Perhaps I could’ve delayed my parole for another decade.”

“Oh, Philly! Don’t say that! Ben, will you please say something?”

“Uh…welcome home.”

Philip stopped eating. “I’m not hungry.” He stood up and walked away.

——

Later that evening, Philip was back in his old bedroom. He’d hardly changed anything about it since his teenage years. One thing that was even further back that didn’t change was his affinity for footie pajamas. He loved his sky blue jammies. For him, it was the right level of comfort and warmth for him in the night.

Too bad no one else let him be him.

Sometimes he wished he was smarter. He had the looks but no brains; he often imagined he was a chocolate bubble (had nothing beneath the surface). Once he was given his job as spy for the Dookess, he felt like he had purpose. Marilyn Blouse seemed to tolerate him until she left him for dead in that Goo-Lacka-Goo. Twotymer and Snerz only put up with him because they had a common enemy. Speaking of whom, Pam-I-Am and her son Sam and Sylvester, wherever he was, did give him a good challenge. To him, it was kind of fun to tussle on missions. Perhaps if he made some kind of peace offering to them, if he found them again, he could be allowed on their side. It’s not like they’d be quarreling anymore; Ookia was whole once again.

Hold on, he said to himself. Did I just have an idea? Then he remembered it wasn’t his first. He did go to Snerz to ask for help with his revenge plot. But if he’s gonna take the steps to better himself, maybe he should let bygones be bygones. So no more digging up the past, Trousers.

——

It was hard to find work when one has a criminal record. Or when one lacked good social skills.

First, Phillip tried getting work at the home improvement store. He almost turned the paint section into rainbow carnage. Next, he tried a department store. It wasn’t his fault the cash register burst into flames! Any other he tried, those being jobs like janitor at the bank or security guard at the nuclear plant, he was kicked all the way to the curb.

“Ugh. This is useless”, he mutters to himself as he sat at the café. “I’m useless.”

Philip took a cursory glance around and he saw a woman enter the café. As she made her order to the barista, Philip got the confidence to get up and walk over to her.

“Hi”, he greeted.

The woman turned around. “Oh, hi!”

Now he was at a loss for words.

She chuckles. “You okay, sir?”

“Uh—yes! Just—you know—brain fart”, he stammered.

“Oh, Seuss. You too, huh?”

Now he chuckles. “I’m…Philip. Philip Trousers”, he greets, holding his hand out.

“Sireena.”

Now, love at first sight is usually frowned upon, but if it’s any consolation, these two didn’t quite feel love.

Yet.

She also worked in the basement during SNL dress rehearsal last night.

Just an fyi for people when they wake up. Likely not Philly. The original poster tagged the other person in the pic and they are NYC based. So who knows when it was. Maybe he did go to SNL, but we haven’t seen anything about that.

those of you in the inbox praying he wasn’t there because of that disgusting joke on SNL. Just remember should he have gone, he didn’t make the joke, or write it, he has nothing to do with it.

CRAY TASTE Restaurant

Located at 118-22 Market Street, Philadelphia 19106.

This restaurant was featured on FYI Philly and it looked fabulous on television so my wife and I decided to check it out. We went on Wednesday for their lunch menu.

We arrived around 12:30 pm and found all the doors locked until we were motioned by the hostess to a door on the opposite side of the restaurant and it was open. My wife asked why they did not put a sign on the door to let people know which door to enter the restaurant. Both the chef and the hostess gave her a blank stare like they did not speak English

The restaurant was empty except for a table of four waiting for their food order and my wife and myself. The hostess then asks if we have a reservation and we say no. She says to us that she has to check the reservation book to see if we can seat you. - HELLO - THE RESTAURANT IN EMPTY!

Service

We wait a few minutes and a very friendly waitress asks to take our order. We both order the Whiting platter with 2 sides. For my sides I order French fries and Collard Greens, my wife orders the Mac and cheese and Collard Greens and we order 2 sparkling waters

After about thirty minutes our platters come. It is now after 1:00 pm and we are the only customers in the restaurant. My platter comes and it is the wrong order I get Mac and cheese instead of fries, my wife has the correct order.

I tell the waitress I ordered the fries oh yes okay I be back with that she says. 10 minutes later she comes with the fries and I ask her what happened to the sparking water and she says she be back with it. It has been 40 minutes since I put the sparkling water order in.

The Food

The fried whiting was burned to a crisp and very dry and looked and tasted like it came from a frozen bag you can buy at your local Wal-Mart. It looked like one small whiting filet was broken into 3 pieces. The Collard greens were very salty and watery and had no actual taste but salt. It would have been better to open a can of Glory Collards and serve that imstead of the salty, tasteless collards they put on my plate.

My wife’s Mac and cheese was like no other I had ever tasted I my life it was horrid! However the french fries were good.

Value

Our Whiting platters were $23.00 each plus sparkling water and the added 20% tip for poor service makes this restaurant an embarrassment to the city of Philadelphia.

In My Opinion

In my opinion, the staff is not properly trained and has no idea of what the term customer service means.

As far as the food, maybe the regular chef was off on that Wednesday and they had to get a guy from an employment agency but whoever was in that kitchen in my opinion needs to go to a cooking school or maybe spend some time with his grandmother to learn how to cook Southern cuisine or for that matter any cuisine.

There are many restaurants in Philly that have a Southern menu, for example, SOUTH on 600 N Broad St, Philadelphia, PA 19130 knocks it out of the park.

On the CRAY TASTE webpage they claim the following:

Cray Taste has a team of 5 professional chefs that deliver every single meal with elite flavor and attention to detail.

In my opinion these are a group of amateurs who would not know attention to detail if it hit them in the face.

In my opinion "STAY AWAY FOR LUNCH", maybe dinner is better will check out dinner and let you know in the near future if this restaurant is still in business!

FYI Philly hits Philadelphia's Cafe scene, Pixar Putt and Fine Fellows Creamery

We're hitting the cafe scene with spots focused on cats, community, and nurturing people with special needs. Plus, a new Pixar-themed golf spot and more.

Dammit, I was writing this thinking it wasn’t going to be that long and then it got progressively longer 😣 I guess this sort of a prompt, because I got the idea off a prompt list. Don’t remember which list but it was like “You’re just realizing I have a crush on you?” Anyway here’s my OTP stargazing (you’ll get your smut soon enough 😂) FYI in my mind they’ve been dating for about 8 months at this point

Natalie is such an outdoor girlie 🤪 she loves learning about different plants and insects and then trying to find those the next time she goes on camping trip. Jane is no where near as into that aspect as Nat, but they too love the great outdoors. They’re a little nature couple 🥺 that also really enjoys being indoors due to things like ac and the internet. When Nat first gets back from New York, where she obviously didn’t have a ton of access to nature, she goes camping like once a month for a full year. Now, coming up on 3 years post Columbia, she brought that down to once every few months. But Jane, who is always so attentive and can tell when Nat needs it, will suggest an impromptu hike or in this case stargazing. Their stargazing spot is only an hours drive from their apartment(I don’t know Vancouvers geography and I’m not looking it up lmao, we’re going to go with just some miscellaneous big hill). When they get there, Nat is chatting about work when she finally gets a good look over at Jane. She thinks she knows her partner pretty well seeing as they grew up together and all that lol so she can immediately tell that they are extremely tired. They’d been dealing with several new additions to the museum causing them to stay late everyday (as someone who for a very short period of time wanted to be a curator, and talked to one who worked at a museum in Philly, staying late for them can mean 3am😭) but they did it anyway since they knew Nat needed this. Her dads most recent fall, which left him with a broken wrist, was still causing her extreme anxiety weeks later. They convinced her to go out with them and ofc Synth helped, otherwise Natalie would have gone straight back to her parents house after work like she’d been doing for weeks. They finally get to the spot, set up their blanket and just look up at the sky. Jane brought their telescope, which was a pretty expensive gift from one of their friends, but they just decided to lay next to each other instead. After a few minutes of Nat just pointing out the stars she thinks she can see and Jane trying not to doze off, Nat turns over and says she loves them and that she realizing she was in love with them broke her heart because she never thought they’d love her in that way. Sharing what’s on their minds is something that Nat’s parents taught both of them so they could have healthy communication 😭 Jane kind of scoffs and is like that’d never happen.

(A little poorly written dialogue to make this earlier to write and understand 🫣)

Natalie: “What wouldn’t?”

Jane: “That I wouldn’t love you. In any way. Because I’ve loved you in every way, more than humanly possible since we were kids.”

Nat is a gaping like a fish at this point: “But you never showed interest in me in that way. Not until I embarrassed myself by sobbing in the rain about you not wanting me.”

Jane laughs, lovingly, in her face: “Are you telling me you’re just now realizing that I’ve always been in love with you?”

Cue the Nat waterworks. Jane just coos and giggles at her reaction while pulling Nat to lay on their chest. To them, Nat is perfect and as far as they could tell she’s the only person on the planet that they could love in that way.

Stop this is so cute I feel like I should just hand this au over to u 😭😭 ur doing it more justice than me

Hey guys this song Fake Friends that was just released this past Friday was an older song and got so much attention it had 30 shares it is old but based on this and my website taps and call button taps are crazy so I entered my track into distrokid artist spotlight and the voting link is now my website link. So I figured what a good idea I entered one song Lyrical Blaze before in there and won so I figured this song got so much support and people love it why not put that as the link and people continue to tap the website and then support me and show you guys really rock with me. I appreciate anybody that votes. I'm not doing much Spotify marketing right now I have other Investments and prior commitments so I figured I'll just enter this song for free it got such a good reception so let's test you all let's see how many tap the website now that there's something I'm asking you to do and that's go vote and show that me linking between multiple platforms and taking the results and working all the platforms together to my advantage. FYI I try to accomplish two things with every move I make cuz I'm 39 years old got delayed for multiple years but I'm back and this time I have a whole different gameplan and start earning money and bringing real hip hop back💯💯💯 I wanna do something I am happy and passionate about for the rest of my life instead of working for a business being told when to come, when to go, when to eat, and hate it imma make sure the 2nd half of my life is no more struggles and bad cards dealt all good people and supporter's that just wanna see the underdog that always been counted out come back and WIN aka go from underdog to champion that is why I refer to myself as The #realliferocky it fits perfect with my image and what I been through and what I'm all about. Just glad I never gave up and never will💯💯💯Best advice I have is Use the hate to motivate do that they say or think u can't do on your next release and prove em wrong, make sure they hear it to show em, and NEVER TALK TO THEM AGAIN💯💯💯 #jyoproductions #followers #followersneeded #followersinstagram #philadelphia #philly #phillyhiphop #hiphop #hiphopperformer #newrapper #realliferocky (at Philly) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck-SnHyuIt-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
