"women will never understand being sad and having no one to care about it or take it seriously" how many memes about teen girls "seeking attention" through posting pictures of their self-inflicted wounds to tumblr have you reposted in 2014? how many times have you joked that you're going to cut yourself whenever the smallest inconvenience happened in reference to this in 2014? how many of these girls did you care about and to how many how you reached out in order to help them?

#god that was an epidemic #using attention seeker as an insult to them too #of course they were seeking attention they wanted someone to help #and even if they wanted tumblr likes for that it's not any less concerning and it certainly isn't funny #radblr

Hi!! Does Robbie like scary movies!? How would he act while watching one or even better, if he was in a horror movie? I was watching a scary movie with him on Character AI and was wondering! (Also I absolutely love your art, very yummy) :D

He’d be the type to be like “yeah babe let’s go watch a scary movie together so you can be scared and I can cuddle u all protective-like nYEHEHEHEH *sparkling rizz eyes*” and then IMMEDIATELY be terrified in the first 10 minutes smhh

cw big ol cleaver/knife

This is mostly an excuse to draw my boi in another one of my boi’s clothes- aka Robert c o u g h-

also him as a killer? Absolute total c h a o s- he can be quite cute and quirky at first but slowly get chaotic and go crazy go stupid smhhh. Similar to his mob version where he can get absolutely violent and chaotic, except he’s just almost nothing but that in this-

also if he was anything but the killer he’d be the first person to be killed LMAOOO

#Drawing him with his hair down feels weird smhhh #Welcome home #welcome home oc #robbie robs #Would he have obsessive traits as a killer? Probably smhhh #Unlike my other boy- Robbie is very much an attention seeker #Loves being the center of attention and can get jealous quite easily

The SECOND Viserys sent a message saying “since you’re struggling to win your war I send soldiers to save your ass” Daemon said “I think the fuck not” and ended a 3 years conflict in 3 minutes out of pettiness

I am obsessed with this dramatic bitch

Tara Reid

Threats of sanctions, fines, prison or exile because I told the truth, and strayed from the narrative by the USA and EU/ NATO. I am an American now living in Russia under political asylum. In Russia, I am safe from persecution by the west. In Russia, I am free. 🤔

*Person says something incredibly offensive*

Cinder's thoughts: Aces, that is the most idiotic, prejudiced, asinine thing I have ever heard. Should I call them out on it? No, what would Kai do? I bet he would smile politely and correct them in a diplomatic way. Probably overlook the statement altogether. How is he so perfect at this?

Kai's thoughts: I hope you rot in a ditch.

#This is directly inspired from that chapter in Winter where Cinder sees Adri and Pearl and thinks “kai would offer them forgiveness” #When we know for a fact that he was internally thinking “ugh these two attention seekers AGAIN” #tlc #the lunar chronicles #lunar chronicles #linh cinder #kaider #emperor kai

what do you think of non-binary people. just generally

i think its a trend and i think its detrimental to women to support this belief you can opt out of womanhood and thats a good thing somehow when often its a misguided and useless attempt to escape misogyny

#ask #nonbinary men are attention seekers

We went from “still just getting to know each other” to full on fanfic courtesy people mag in exactly 14 days. Do you think this could mean it will be short lived? Seems to be moving fast.

I don’t know what is going to happen because I don’t know what her goal is beyond simple publicity for the movie and 1989 tv (and just in general being seen dating a man which is important for her image and for selling music) and we’ll have to wait to see how it goes. I still stand by it likely to be short lived but whether that means November or March, your guess is good as mine. I think I’m currently leaning more in the March direction as being most likely, but it could be tomorrow or it could be forever or whatever she said in Blank Space.

In case anyone’s keeping count, I also have pretty much settled on all of this being well planned out in advance, including his appearance at the July KC tour in the first place. I wouldn’t be surprised if it had been planned for a very long time, just like Matty was.

1) have them linked publicly (for Travis it was the concert and friendship bracelet digits story). Sit back and watch the reaction, and give it a bit of a push in the right direction. With joe this was all done retroactively, after their relationship was “accidentally” leaked we found out they hung out in Oct. With Matty this was done over the course of late 2022-early 2023.

2) soft launch it by announcing an appearance ahead of time to get all eyes on it, while planting stories that they’ve hung out a few times, to establish a timeline back into the summer (august 1ish). Have her publicly meet his mom and get her approval. Again, with joe this was done retroactively, where we found out she had pined over him all summer and their anniversary was sept 28, and we’ve even now got a hook up on Aril 29. For Matty, she met his mom in stage 1), then this stage was her announcing the break up on Matty’s bday, and then planting stories that they were dating, that he’d go to Nash and there’d be PDA, and then stories that she thought maybe he was the one who got away, and had quietly been in love with him for almost a decade.

3) launch, but keep it casual. There’s still time to back out if things go poorly. People have time to get used to it and talk about “are they or aren’t they” serious, and you can control the narrative via media outlets and inside sources to set people up the way you want them to lean, all without even having them seen together more than once or twice. Set up a casual photo of them that seems to taken without their knowledge in a private moment. (Balcony with joe, private club with Matty, after party in KC with Travis.) This is far as she got with Matty then she cut her losses. Or I guess you could argue they had spilled into step 4). It’s a spectrum. With joe, again this was done retroactively but also the summer of 2017, no one knew how serious they were until secret sessions/rep came out.

4) hard launch during movie opening weekend. WE ARE HERE. For Matty this was probably supposed to happen during speak now release. But who knows. For joe it was reputation’s release.

5) Optional: push things hard until enough people seem to be generally getting tired of it. I assume this is next with Travlor. No idea how long this will last. Days or weeks I think. With joe this wasn’t a big deal because of the privacy narrative. No one could get tired of something they never saw (though they could get bored of it which was ok at that stage but boredom is the opposite of what she wants now.) With Travis I think this stage will be more of an important thing. If you go back to Calvin, this stage was most of their relationship.

6) cool things down so then people talk about “are they or aren’t they still together?” This was a constant with joe. I think this was just at the end for Calvin and the answer was they weren’t still together.

7) relaunch so everyone is excited to see them again. Steps 6-7 happened a lot with Joe naturally because of the privacy narrative. Will travlor get to this stage? I think so but it will be much accelerated. Like nothing for a week and people will wonder. Then, bang, she’s there again. Something like that.

8) ongoing: periodically lightly escalate the seriousness of the relationship. We’re already in this stage and it will continue. There is current chatter about her house shopping in KC. The usual (she actually BOUGHT a house one time for a man. And remember her Scottish castle, and how she and joe were constantly buying a London house for 6 years including furniture shopping right before they broke up?) And there will be constant talk of settling down and getting engaged.

9) and on and on until it ends. We could zoom through these stage over the next 2 weeks, or in seemingly endless loop of stages 6-9 for two years. No way to know until it ends or they get married, have 10 kids and teach them how to dream.

10) optional: black swan event. All bets are off.

I think it’s likely she’ll go to a couple of more games, and be seen spending as much time with him as reasonably possible before her next tour date. They need to “get to know each other” and “enjoy this fun honeymoon stage while they’re both smitten” while she can. Keep in mind her SA tour section is only 3 weeks long, and he could even potentially go to Argentina on his off week, so that’s not really enough time for the “their busy schedules were too much” excuse. Possible but you know not as likely. Then she’s off for for a couple of months again. Imagine the fun they can have over Christmas. We’ll skip the island vacation around new years or star-studded New Year’s party this time because he’ll still be playing football, so imagine her at playoff games. She’s getting literal millions of dollars in almost free publicity from this, and no matter how many people want to say she’s getting negative attention or being over-exposed or whatever, I don’t see it that way at all. It’s going very very well. All for the price of a few hours of her time and some jet fuel. So, like I didn’t see any reason for her to end it with joe because he was serving his purpose, I see no reason for this to end. Until she has reached her unknown-to-us goal.

There is a lot I can’t see or know, so these are just my best guesses based on what we’ve seen so far and what I see on their schedule for the next few months, and of course, my belief that this relationship not real.

#I also want to note that most of this is what’s done for more ‘real’ relationships #two celebs start dating and decide to go full PR power couple while they’re at it. #most celebs are celebs because they are attention seekers and understand publicity and PR are part of the job #a lot of people accept this which makes Travlor seem plausible. even if they are using it for publicity #it could still be real

The frustrating thing about having good days with pain or bodily irritation or mobility or whatever else isn't that it's a "good day." It's the feeling that you are either greatly exaggerating your suffering or worse, that you're secretly wanting attention/admiration for your suffering. I think people sometimes are confused as to why good days in terms of disability can be distressing to some, but it is precisely that you almost... overthink the Implications of good days.

It isn't that you want to be suffering, it is that you are taught you will only be "worthy" of help if you are suffering in the Right way (and having any good days are often seen as a sign that you aren't "truly worthy").

#disability #internalized ableism #internalized ableism tw #ableism #ableism tw #it's also for me like... 'are my aids helping me because i am disabled or am i just an Attention Seeker' #i just don't want people to get the wrong idea of people who aren't... happy about having 'good days' #because sometimes you are almost expected to be Grateful to Not Be Disabled Today when you have a good day #but it's like... you're still disabled but your body (for whatever reason) isn't suffering as much as it might other days #i was really weirded out these past couple days because my back pain is almost nonexistent... #...and it makes me worry because: 1. this is temporary 2. is it because my aids are helping to prevent pain or is it something else? #3. again it's temporary and i am really really scared that these non-pain days are going to fucking bite me in the ass #you tend to get caught in this cycle where good things make you scared because it feels temporary and reversible at any second
