might just be me but im convinced so many ppl see anime that were popular in the 00s immediately associated with a phase or not for them anymore or like a thing in the past cause so many of my favs that haven't had recent anime have had this happen

like the quality of the series doesnt matter if its a 2000s anime and you associate it with your teen years or something

90s stuff is far back enough to be seen as cool and classic and some 00s anime media that's like recently revived or has rly specific high quality artstyles is seen as aesthetic now but like...a lot of ppl just dont dig back into those era of interest cause noones going arnd telling them its cool and they assume it was just some thing they liked as a young person and moved on from or something

or they SRSly liked it at the time but it's seen as smth they move on from as a part of life like am I crazy idk?????

obviously everything is like that to an extent but i feel like the properties that have escaped this are ones that stretched all the way into the 2010s or had recent high quality remakes or some sort of major anime or game project within the last few years to drum up buzz...its PART of why i always huff mad copium dreaming of a science saru holic anime it would feel so correct and the timing has basically passed cause theyre gonna stop giving holic attention soon and we already got the movie lol (still havent seen it my brain is weird i wanna see it so bad idk why i havent yet ask my brain)

but like idk . i feel like if you're not one of those niche types or actively invested in stuff you liked as a teenager or stuff slightly before your time as an anime fan lots of things just remain 'pleasant memories of a janky thing that I liked back then as a cringey teen' and it stays like that forever and that rly bums me out

apart from series that have actively had major flaws ive reassessed as an adult (lots of shojo and bl from 00s era lol) ive never related to that sort of thing so it feels so annoying to me. like cringe is free maybe that thing you liked back then is still good. not trying to pressure anybody sometimes interests really do come in phases but it sucks when this sort of thing means great media gets left behind cause 'idk i liked it when i was 13 which was cool but its a bit jank lol' or something

#ranting #obviously not everyone feels this way but i feel like its very common w 00s properties #that dont have current or recent revival projects #obviously im talking about holic for this specifically but #i like a lot of 00s shows so ive seen this a lot #other than for series w big revivals /constant streams of content like higurashi #it even happened with higurashi just to a lesser extent #idk #one of my attitudes towards anime viewing has been going thru remembering titles of shows i heard as a kid or saw clips of but never saw ye #whydyou think i literally just finished azumanga daioh LOL #oh yeah theres the other niche corner of semiironic lainbrain aesthetic shitposters they adopt a lot of these series #no but like isnt it weird that we havent hit the point where lots of 00s greats have been given their flowers yet #at least in western anime fandom #like #youd think itd happen by now thru all the 00s aesthetic revival eras #ig the key word is aesthetic (which is dumb even in theory cause lots of series in 00s had jank adaptations but were beautiful or toptier)#also theres plenty of REAL janky trash in 00s and we cant differentiate and appreciate the crap and the quality alike without this talk lol

Got asked if I had any tips for new artists during my stream today and I figured I'd put them here too:

Draw, seriously, just do it. This is the hardest part and also the most crucial. Just run at it screaming and refuse to back down. You just gotta do it.

Always do your wrist/arm/shoulder stretches before drawing and make sure to take breaks to stretch/re-center yourself if you've been going for a few hours or more! (Here's the stretches I do, and they help with gaming and writing and desk work too, they're just a good idea all around!)

Try to draw less from the wrist and more from the shoulder(move your arm more and your wrist less basically). That and stretches will help you avoid carpal tunnel which is never fun.

Consistency is only something you need to worry about if you're like, working in the industry/doing some types of commissions(like an twitch emote bundle or a comic book). If you're just starting out or only drawing for yourself it literally doesn't matter. Like, I don't think I've ever drawn a character exactly the same way twice, it's fine.

Don't do warm up drawings, do warm up scribbles. Doodles circles and squares and lines and swirls until you feel nice and lose, then start actually drawing.

If you're between 50-90% done with something and you REALLLY start to hate it, keep going. You just gotta power through, cuz chances are it's perfectly fine(or even really good) and your monkey brain is being a jackass coward chugging that impostor syndrome juice.

If you finish and you still hate it put it away until tomorrow or the day after and then look again. Never EVER trust your negative opinions about your art(or anything) if it's after like 8pm.

Re: the above points, as an exampke last night I HATED my new pngtuber model that I'd spent literally all day on. Went to bed and in the morning was like "oh this is good actually". Trust me, tired burnt out you is not a good judge of quality, especially the quality of something you've been staring at for like 4-5 hours.

If, after all that, you still hate it, that's okay too. It's a bummer, but don't try to force yourself to like something just cuz you spent a lot of time on it. Chalk it up to experience and move on to the next thing!

Do everything in your power to not compare yourself to others. It won't get you anywhere. Instead learn to look at other people's art and find what you like about it and try to break it down or do it that way yourself. Dont fully copy/trace ofc, but really think about how something looks and see if you can figure out why you like it and/or how it's done.

OH MY GOD USE REFERENCES. Anyone who says not to use references is talking out of their ass. You think figure drawing classes are bad?? That artists draw from life just for shits and giggles?? No, its because you need to know what shit looks like to draw it!!! USE REFERENCES!!!

Same with youtube tutorials, especially for learning to use digital art programs. Do take everything with a grain of salt ofc(we've all seen the "masculine vs feminine eyes" shit or the trash trend of "I fix my viewer's bad art uwu" ignore that crap) but you can learn all kinds of shit for free on youtube.

If you can feel yourself burning out fucking stop drawing a take a break. Even if you're in the middle of something, or part of you wants to keep drawing. Burn outs suck and it's gonna take a lot longer to get over it if you push yourself until you crash instead of just acknowledging that you're hitting your limit and stopping for a few days. The art will be there when you get back, your health should always come first!

If someone tells you thick line art or anime style or whatever is bad, ignore them. All art is subjective. Draw what you want how you want. Even if it's all thick line art or you stick to sketches or only do anime stuff or chibis or humans or furries or goddamn stick figures just draw literally whatever. If this is just a hobby for you there's no reason to push yourself. Draw what makes you happy, fuck everyone else.

Anyway that's all I've got for now, might add more tomorrow when I'm less tired(and I encourage additions for other artists as I'm self taught and had to learn most of this the hard way and thus I'm sure I've missed stuff) but yeah, just draw my dudes, this is supposed to be fun. You deserve to have fun.

i see so much praise for haunting adeline in the dark romance space, but honestly i couldn't make it past a grown 6ft+ man hiding in a woman's wardrobe so idk if it was good or not.

If you like this book, I need you to look away because oh my god how I have been WAITING for someone to ask me about it. I wasn't going to bring it up, and I'm not going to talk about it by myself, but I WILL if someone ELSE asks me to.

First of all, HA and it's sequel are QAnon fanfiction. That should be enough to give people pause but it's not CLEARLY because everyone goes on and on about how good this book is. So lets set aside the blatant, in your face unavoidable anti-semitism for just a moment to discuss all my other problems with it (And do not come here and tell me the author changed the evil bad guys name, like congrats you made your coding a little more subtle).

First of all: the writing is so atrocious that even for trash, I question how people are reading it. And my only conclusion is that people HAVE to be skimming it, which explains how so much of the plot escapes people and they miss the aforementioned problems. Like quality-wise, the book is horrible and I don't think an editor with time could really fix it.

Secondly: I genuinely feel like a lot of dark romance authors forget that dark romance still requires ROMANCE to be part of their novels. A dark haired serial killer breaking into your house and saying, "no I want you so you're mine" is actually not romance. Do people know this? I feel insane sometimes looking at "dark romance" recs because there is 0 romance to it. There is no falling in love, there is no kindness, no emotional building, just an endless stream of crimes committed against the FMC until she agrees she likes being treated badly and sex becomes the stand in for emotional intimacy

Which of course takes me to point three: the smut is SO BAD I literally LOSE IT when people are like, oh the smut is SO GOOD LMAO STOP IT. Stop it right now, I skipped ahead once I realized I was never going to get there organically and like. I feel like I might get accused of being a prude, my issue isn't what's happening, it is HOW IT IS WRITTEN. The scenes are so dry, so uninspired, trying to be shocking for the sake of shock value rather than creating something that would be interesting and sexy. Words actually matter when you're writing, do some of the authors know that?

Anyway I loathe these books more than any other fast fiction KU book. I think I could come up with more positive things to say about Zodiac Academy than I can with the Haunting Adeline series. I am it's #1 hater

#haters bookclub #I'm not sure how to tag this to both avoid stans from being upset and keep people from defending it in my askbox

♡—DREAM replied to a post and a comment on Reddit! A transcript of the long comment is under the cut.

"So many people in this thread are just being ridiculous or saying things that are completely factually wrong. Like you are so pessimistic and hate twitter so much that you feel the need to disagree on everything. Like you can hate twitter and still recognize when a twitter take is right or not criticize everything I do on twitter.

Me asking the fandom to not comment about “body doubles” wearing the mask for required promotional content while I’m literally recovering for surgery, because it takes away from the content, is totally ridiculously okay. Especially given the fact I told them that would be the case in the first place, and far less people would comment on it in the first place. I’m not “policing” anyone, I’m asking and explaining why, as I have done tons in the past because it works because my fans respect me and I respect them (very generally lol). People say it all the time when it’s me under the mask that it’s not because of X or Y or Z and sometimes even those reasonings make me a little uncomfortable, especially in times when it is me.

Or speculating that George or Nick or Ken or whoever is under the mask.

People saying stuff about TikTok stats being terrible and that it’s trash content and not because of fans. First of all, no one’s blaming fans for anything, and it wasn’t even about past content it was seeing everyone comment “Ken” (when it’s not even Ken) on my TikTok and me realizing that would be confusing and could impact views, that’s just how I am, I analyze everything.

And anyone saying “TikTok views are trash because trash content” are just morons. My TikTok views are high, and I’ve uploaded more in the past months than I have like times 30 in the past years. Yea I’ve posted shit ones as well, that comes with trying to post more and more frequently. I’ve gained more followers recently than in years. Some of what I’ve uploaded is high effort skit content, others low quality memes or whatever. But I’m uploading what is fun and unique to me and that’s it and you can not watch it if you don’t like it.

For those complaining so much about the mask, literally just step back and realize how ridiculous you’re being?? Of my last 12 TikTok’s, 6 of them featured the mask. a few of them my face, a few of them Minecraft/normal content I’d make. Most the mask ones were just making fun of me wearing it in public lol. I post snaps in the mask, and also not in the mask. For those saying it makes my music impersonal, I’ve promoted on different platforms in the mask and out of the mask, for that reason lots of the UIEUD music video wasn’t in the mask since that was such an emotional piece. For my tour I plan to have plenty of show elements where I’m wearing the mask, and lots of singing and stuff where I’m not. At TwitchCon Paris I was in and out of the mask, at the boxing event I was in and out of the mask, I take fan photos without the mask. Like you’re far over exaggerating, and you’re forgetting I WAS A FACELESS CREATOR, I made 100% of my content without showing my face, AND I said I didn’t plan on showing my face all the time after, said I wouldn’t do face-cam streams, etc. If your complaint is that you’d rather see no person than me in the mask, then you’re just trying to look for something to complain about.

You could say “well now that we’ve seen your face we just realize that we’re missing out on seeing your face in that TikTok or post or whatever and it’s annoying” that’s totally valid, but have you ever thought that maybe you wouldn’t see that post at all if it wasn’t for the mask? I’m fairly confident, but I’m still very conscious of my looks and being judged by hundreds of millions of people makes me double take about putting just anything out on to the internet. “Oh I have a bad hair day, usually wouldn’t record, oh fuck it throw on the mask”

I’m not obligated to make content with my face in it, and I ALWAYS SAID I WASNT GOING TO, but I’ve actually grown a healthier relationship with how I look and the internet, so I do plan on showing myself more than I originally said. That being said, I love the mask, it’s great for me, and it’s always been my brand so get off your high horse about “dreams an idiot everyone hates it!”, when that’s just YOU being parasocial and not even recognizing it. I am enjoying what I’m doing and amplifying things that make me enjoy it, and I like the mask. I don’t owe anyone content of my face, but there will be plenty. I plan on making public appearances showing my face, making TikTok’s showing my face (as I have), posting pictures showing my face (as I have), and lots more. But only when and where I want to, and not because you think it’s stupid to wear the mask, but because I want to.

It’s fine to not like the fact that I wear the mask and express that you’d rather see that TikTok or post as my face, but just try and remember that I was faceless, and hardly planned on posting my face after the face reveal. There was years were I never showed myself, months where I was caught up in everything and showed myself so much, months where I JUST wore the mask, and now we’re slowly moving to a middle ground. Coming to terms with what I enjoy the most and is the best for me overall. Jesus reading this thread was exhausting so many just patently false things out of anger. I get it I haven’t communicated here much with this side, here’s a comment rip me apart"

this anon is such a loser. anon jimin LOVES his fans, he loves us and appreciates us but he doesn't owe us his personal time. he DOES give back 100% of the effort his fans give him. he works his ass off to make quality music and breaks his bones in hard choreographies so that we can have something GREAT to enjoy and be PROUD to say we stan park jimin. we repay his efforts by streaming and buying to give his hard work the recognition it deserves. our relationship IS equal.

and instead of blaming him for being inactive (compared to the other members) blame his antis who literally ran his off social media. jimin used to be the most active member on bts’ socials but he stopped being so around 3 years ago, when his antis doubled down in number and the hate got more vile. he still comes online to interact with us (his latest weverse spicy food post, hello???) and he posts on insta, he even gave us a house tour on his last live which shows how much he trusts us even though we don't deserve his trust. and he promised to come live more often but excuse him for choosing to work on music instead of coming live every two business days for no reason at all. we know he's currently working his ass off on new music that we'll probably hear soon(ish) and goes home to rest. he doesn't owe us his rest time. he doesn't have to use his resting hours on live instead of in the comfort of his bed.

anon i need you to unstan jimin IMMEDIATELY if that's how you've been feeling about him. you're so ungrateful and bitter. if you want him to have taekook's level of activity on social media go stan taekook instead, but don't think you can demand jimin and force him to act a certain way just for your own benefit. he doesn't owe you shit. fans CHOOSE which artist they wanna stan based on how we vibe with his musicality and personality; so if jimin's personality doesn't do it for you anymore UNSTAN HIM, but don't go around trashing him for not fitting the mold you wish to create for him. he owes you NOTHING.

„He DOES give back 100% of the effort his fans give him. He works his ass off to make quality music and breaks his bones in hard choreographies so that we can have something GREAT to enjoy and be PROUD to say we stan park jimin.”

Anon you said it all pefectly. I have nothing to add.

Tbh I'm pretty sure the average gamer believes in trickle-down economics

(this is in regards to the "I'm shocked more gamers aren't anti-capitalist" post)

Now I don't necessarily think that's true either. In fact, I'd say the reason the game industry is the way it is has nothing to do with economic politics. I'd say that the average gamer - or nerd in general, really - is a spineless coward who's too addicted to the dopamine hit to actually stand for anything if their wants ever clash with their purported morals. And I fucking hate it.

I'm not just saying that because I'm bitter, although you could make a case that I am bitter. But I even live under a rock and I got ample examples. Look at how well games we know are low quality, games made under unquestionably awful crunch and/or other awful situations, etc... look how well they sell! BDSP and ScarVio sold like hotcakes and they're unquestionably bad games for a $60 price tag. Starfield - which I have heard NOTHING good about, and looks like absolute trash - is apparently Bethesda's "biggest launch to date." Somehow that fuckass Cyberpunk game is still relevant. People are actually still playing Overwatch 2 despite ... everything. These are just games I pulled off the top of my head while I'm still waking up. The fact these games are KNOWN to be shitty hasn't stopped them from selling.

Sure, a lot of people made a big fuss about not playing Hogwarts: Antisemitism Adventures, but they were talking smack because they never cared about the game in the first place. So it was never challenging their morals. Oh, sure, they told us how even PIRATING the game was bad, and that anyone who bought it (or even talked about it) was helping put money in transphobes' and nazis' pockets. How quick their tune changed when they actually wanted to see the FNAF movie - suddenly, giving money to people known to max out donations to republicans ain't so bad. They knew the right answer was to not see the movie, but like, they really really want to! If you told any of these people you donated $30 grand to multiple republicans they'd probably, rightfully, have nothing to do with you. But they neeeeeeeded to see their blorbos or they'd die :'( so this time it's OK!

Same with the Mario movie. We know Chris Pratt is a rightwing chud who ousted a long-standing legendary voice actor for the spot because he was a recognizable name. We knew the Mario movie was a shameless cashgrab and a metaphorical foot-testing-the-water for uninspired video game cashgrab movies. And the test was a success. YEAH. PEOPLE STILL SAW IT. Enjoy Chris Pratt - who hates you for thinking Link is trans - playing Link in The Movie of Zelda, coming out in Q4 2024.

I know a lot of these are left-leaning examples, but this isn't exclusive to left side gamers. How many times have you seen someone upset because Shooter Game Whatever had just the sliiiightest touch of left-ish stances, they'd take to whatever to complain. But they still be playing the game too.

It goes beyond just games tho, nerd culture is all the same. Let's also talk about Nerd Protests. And how they're the most self-affirming, hollow bullshit.

Like two years ago, Twitch was having some problems. And I'm not referring to them literally breaking a woman's back live on camera, which they did do, and never helped her, and you totally forgot about, because human suffering is nothing in the face of dopamine. No, I'm talking about A Day Off Twitch, in which streamers were encouraged to take a day off of streaming as protest towards.... something. I don't remember. Seemed pretty important. Anyway, Twitch never even acknowledged the demands of the streamers. Like Adriana Chechik's broken back, they didn't do anything about it. And... there was never a second Day Off Twitch. There was abosolutely zero follow through. And nobody wanted to acknowledge it. Nobody did fucking anything. Instead of going "wow, they're not doing anything. We should CONTINUE TO PROTEST" you all patted yourself on the back after seeing one day of approximate revenue lost and went back to giving Jeffy Bezzolio cash by subbing to xXxvtuberfeetxXx or whatever. I literally never heard anything about this again.

And last year, reddit made some changes that people didn't like. An unignorable chunk of the site went dark to protest it. The CEO basically then said "eh, this change will make us money, and this protest will pass, so just wait it out." Like literally there was leaked memos saying "eh they'll get over it." AND HE WAS FUCKING RIGHT. Reddit was back to normal in like a fucking week. No changes made to their plans. And nobody went, "hey, fuckface, we're serious!" They just. Let it happen.

That's the thing. Gamers and nerds LOVE to talk a big talk until it inconveniences them. And then, they'll protest JUST ENOUGH to say that they tried. "Play the cards you been dealt" fuckin mentality. They were like "yeah I didn't watch Twitch during A Day Off Twitch, so I did my part! Oh, sure, nothing came of it, and then they literally had bodyguards manhandle a woman with a back broken in two places live on camera like two months later, but what else am I supposed to do?" as if not using twitch was not an option. as if using twitch was, in fact, an imperative.

And let's talk about Discord. you know, originally, for gamers. But now due to investments by social media moguls, it's worse than skype was. And be real, you know it's not gonna get better. Every two weeks they do something you all hate, and I have to hear about it. And again, Not using discord is never considered. Using discord is again, apparently, an imperative. When they made you guys change usernames - which I will actually go on record and say was not that big of a deal and that y'all majorly overreacted - it was such a prevalent, inescapable topic on social media you'd think they were literally committing war crimes. And since I've seen war crimes on social media recently, I can say that's literally an apt comparison. I see as much coverage about the IDF's crimes as I saw "DISCORD IS MAKING US CHANGE USERNAMES!" posts. And despite the fact you guys FLOODED them with feedback about how you didn't like it, they held fast and held steady. They knew it'd blow over eventually. AND IT DID. Within a month of the change y'all stopped making a fuss. Guess tellin your blorbo chat that you'd like to switch to Telegram (or Escargot, or a fourm, or IRC, or whatever) was more effort than just accepting the username change, huh? And now you've accepted ten or twelve other shitty things they've done since, eh?

And this all wraps up to my point nicely. Gamers/nerds have no spine, and regardless of what politics they say they believe - or perhaps genuinely believe they believe - push comes to shove they're going for instant gratification every time. Inconvenience is not to be tolerated, and wants are meant to be resolved in the easiest way possible (by giving in). The concept of taking a stand is LOVELY to them until it means actually standing up, because that requires minor personal sacrifices and gosh, we can't have that.

FRLG, HGSS, ORAS. Beautiful remakes. So when BDSP was announced - an ugly, 1:1 port with no added features, no additional mons (even including the ones introduced in BDSP's sister game PLA), made by a random software developer who had never made a game before, in unity, under severe crunch, for more money than the other remakes... I thought it was a slam dunk. We could finally tell TPCi to fuck off. Well, it sold about 15 million copies. At a $60 price tag, that means they made roughly $900 Million (roundable to a billion with a b) on what's unquestionably a shitty game. That one, personally, ruined my hopes for the game industry. Gamers will take whatever's given to them.

Games without the constraints of capitalism would be fantastic - but as long as capitalism exists, gamers will allow it to exist in the space. They don't have the spine to leave Discord - it's near sisyphean to expect them to control themselves enough to not enable the bad habits of companies.

... hmmm this took two hours to write due to an unfortunate crash but apparently I've had this essay fuckin loaded in my subconscious.

Once again would like to complain about streaming services. Stargate SG-1 left Netflix, went back to Prime, came off prime a couple weeks after it went on... And now it's back on Prime. So not only is that ridiculous, but they are now using whatever resolution aired on tv instead of the resolution used for the DVDs, so the picture quality is TRASH. Honestly, I think the worst part about it is that the highlights are so blown out, but generally everything about the picture just sucks now. The episodes literally have the "TV PG" rating block in the corner.

Streaming is such a lose-lose situation. It's exhausting.

#I know weirdly specific stuff about how picture quality works... but not for television #like I'm familiar with it for AV but only for masters so #I don't know what the actual difference between the aired version and the DVD version is #but as a viewer i can tell you it sucks

about mangaka art, i feel like anybody is just gonna find whatever reason to complain about their art. you don’t know how many people would complain about horikoshi’s (from bnha) art. his panels especially lately are absolutely gorgeous and he’s been doing colorspreads like every 2 weeks and people will still complain about the art quality “declining” 😒. like they could do any better than the professionals with the same crazy deadlines that they have. ppl, particularly in the western fandom, are just so entitled to stuff like it’s so insane. it’s the same with animation too. there are so many documentaries about the conditions that animators live in and the time constraints they have to give amazing work, and people will still go on rants about it.

GO OFF seeing tiktoks of ppl trashing snk bc of the animation quality when it wasn't even that bad annoyed me sooooo much. literally all ppl do is complain. western fans thinking they even get an opinion when a majority of them are illegally streaming anime is just. so. delusional.😭😭

#ur right it is the entitlement it's always the entitlement #these animators are overworked and underpaid it's an extremely exploitative industry #I saw a few pages of shigaraki's spreads and it looked gorgeous I thought horikoshi outdid himself #i can't even explain it but there's such a lack of empathy and culture of self gratification in the western fandom #that im sure contributes to this + art stealing #ask

How do you clean garbage cans that are bug-infested?

How to clean garbage cans is a hot search topic, especially in summer. When heat quickly turns bins into stink pits, that is a breeding ground for harmful bacteria, viruses, and other harmful pathogens.

The sight of maggots and the rotting smell from reeking garbage bins make us gag. Filthy bins attract raccoons and vermin, often leaving a mess to clean up. Washing disgusting containers is a horrible, revolting chore, and we are tired of it. Yet does it have to get done, or does it now?

So, how do we stop this senseless cycle? & Keep Clean garbage cans!

Available Bag Products To Help Keep Clean Garbage Cans

Paper and other environmentally friendly bags and products are common substitutes for plastics in the organic stream. Most paper bags don’t hold up, and they get costly fast. Many bio-degradable and compostable bags have gelatine or thin plastic linings to avoid disintegration. Using oversized or extra-large garbage bags in trash cans prevents the lids from properly shutting. Flies get access through openings & lay eggs, which causes maggots. Bags rip or tear when a built-in locking mechanism is present. So we revert to what we know works well: plastic bags, specifically single-use grocery or checkout bags. But they are getting more costly, consistently fail at doing the job effectively, and have caused irreversible environmental damage.

Want a hassle-free solution to keep clean garbage cans?

Garbage bags or bin liners, whatever you call them, ‘work.’ They help keep bins clean, which is why we all use them. But it’s impossible to find reasonably priced bags that stretch and fit over the large openings of our containers. When buying trash bags, we have all looked for bags that fit our bins. Oversized loads are commonly found in the manufacturing industry, as they exceed residential limits and are overpriced.

We want one simple, reliable solution that makes it a mess and hassle-free fix. That solution is BagEZ. The world’s first garbage bag holder that makes managing your waste super easy and an easy way to clean garbage cans smell.

How BagEZ gives you clean garbage cans every time

Always start with a clean can and use good quality bags for the best results.

Setting up BagEZ is quick, simple, and effortless. You can do it in 3 easy steps.

Unfold your frame and hang the handles on the raised edges of your open container.

Insert your bag through the center and pull the edges over the frame. Ensure adequate overhanging material to avoid bag slippage.

Firmly attach your fasteners by pressing down one side at a time until all four corners are secure.

That’s it. It’s that simple.

You are now ready to throw your trash away. See the VIDEO

Replacing and adding new bags.

Lift, Drop, and shut. That’s your routine until your bag reaches capacity. Replacing bags is super easy.

Pull off the four fasteners, one side at a time.

Let your bag drop, and seal it.

Add new bags as needed until your bin is full.

Remove your BagEZ bag holder before putting your bin at the curb

All waste in the bag, including nasty and gross items, is removed, leaving you with a clean bin without any effort.

Drop a few newspapers in your bin to absorb any liquids that may leak if your bag happens to be ripped or punctured accidentally. Lining your container with a few papers when you are going to use a brand of trash bags you have not tried before will again save you from having to wash out your bin thoroughly. Check your containers for any leaks or accidents after trash collection. Upgrade to a better quality bag to avoid future disasters, as BagEZ can firmly secure bags up to 55 lbs / 25 kgs.

BagEZ can easily be combined with other odor and pest-eliminating products to give you added control and peace of mind.

Approximately 100 liters of water are wasted washing out bins and spraying clean garbage cans on driveways and lawns with the nasty stuff in your containers. That dirty water is toxic and frequently gets into the drainage system, contaminating stormwater. Besides preserving water, you save money and do not waste time washing out nasty garbage containers. Detergents and other products used to clean bins are also saved.

Additional Benefits Of BagEZ

Single-use plastic bags, commonly identified as shopping, grocery, or checkout bags, cost 5 to 10 cents a bag and are rising. Thin bags are famous for leaks, and double-bagging is smart. Grocery bags hold little waste but spill a lot when crushed. Additionally, recycling facilities jam systems and cause huge problems.

The average household disposes of about 3 to 5 bags per week, if not more. Trash bags hold more waste in volume, cost way less, and are great at holding trash and keeping bins clean.

BagEZ is versatile and makes managing waste anywhere super easy. You can hang, suspend, or rest BagEZ just about anywhere you want to make disposing of trash quick and convenient. The easy-carry handles make moving your bag around or to the bin accessible.

We hope BagEZ gives you years of service. There are substantial environmental benefits, which you can find in our FAQ section. Please share BagEZ with us because we want to make managing waste easy.

A clean garbage cans service near me versus BagEZ

After trying to find a reliable, cost-effective, hassle-free, clean garbage can service near me and failing. I created BagEZ to provide me with the convenience and target price I wanted.

The BagEZ system provided a meticulous cleaning service for my garbage cans and brought a revolutionary approach to waste management. Unlike conventional services, BagEZ ensures thorough cleaning while being eco-friendly and eliminating the use of harsh chemicals while providing 24/7 protection.

Its compact design and portability made it a hassle-free choice, catering to my need for cleanliness in confined spaces. The ease of use and the added benefit of being environmentally conscious convinced me that BagEZ was the superior choice for maintaining spotless, odor-free garbage cans in my vicinity.

How do you clean garbage cans?

Typical cleaning involves work, a bunch of tools & products to make cleaning your garbage can easier.

° Pressure washer is excellent, but a hose gets the job done.

° A scrubber with a long or extendable handle & tough bristles to remove tough grime & gunk and avoid crawling in the bin to scrub.

° Cleaning Products to loosen the dirt & remove odors are a must. I could go on about the effort, time, and water used or try BagEZ. A bag holder that allows you to fit any regular bin liner and keep your waste contained

How often should you clean your garbage can?

On average, two times a year is recommended, but it depends. Hot, humid conditions in states like Florida, Louisiana, and Texas make garbage can cleaning a necessity. Diapers, pet & food waste quickly turn garbage cans into stink pits full of harmful germs and pathogens.

Summer is getting hotter, and regular trash can cleanings quickly become a pain and a health hazard. BagEZ garbage can -trash bag holders eliminate this problem for you while delivering professional trash can cleaning service results.

As your trash is collected, everything in your trash bag, garbage juice, putrid food, and more gets taken away. You are left with a clean garbage can every time. Use quality LDPE trash bag for the best result.

Tried downloading clips from twitch to post here and Twitter. But they're garbage. Literal Garbage. The framerate is in the 20's. But they look fine on Twitch? What's the point of that? Why give us the option to download it if they look like trash? I don't get it. I actually wanted to try and do some self promotion but I cant use these, they make my stream look like trash. I mean. It is but not because the video quality is bad smh.

The Circular Fashion Guide

If understanding ethical and sustainable fashion wasn't difficult enough, we've now added circularity to the mix, which can be confounding if you're unfamiliar with it. Let’s know how sustainable clothing helps the environment.

Save 19kg of carbon emissions, contributing to a cleaner, greener future for all of us.

Save 95 liters of water, which has a major knock-on impact on keeping fashion-industry poisons out of our streams and oceans.

While being impacted by macro forces like automation and climate disruption, the fashion industry is transitioning from linear to more circular fashion business models—including repair, recycling, resale, and renting.

This transformation brings with it the potential to design new business models that solve the industry's long-standing labor challenges, as well as the obligation to guarantee that the new employment created are decent jobs. There will be also a requirement for high-quality industrial sewing machines and maintenance experts.

Circular fashion's growth and investment indicate the industry's considerable commercial potential for transformation.Businesses that provide recycling, repair, rental, or resale platforms are springing up all over the place.Circularity can give economic and entrepreneurial options for workers as huge legacy corporations struggle to change.

In India, 66 percent of workers, mainly women, want to establish their enterprises but are hampered by a lack of capital and business skills. Workers already have a lot of the knowledge they'll need to get through the transition. Informal trash workers, for example, are familiar with how garment and textile waste is separated, processed, and reintroduced into the marketplace.

The opaque and complex global fashion value chain will expand to include additional sectors and activities such as recycled plastic, agricultural waste, textile recovery, sorting, and recycling as the industry transitions to a more circular model. It also increases the sales of modern types of equipment used for garment production such as industrial sewing machines, etc.

The social impact of the circular fashion industry –

Strong job creation potential.

More multifunctional, stimulating roles with improved health and safety for workers.

Entrepreneurship opportunities, particularly for women; and increased potential to integrate informal workers into the value chain by providing them with social protection and other benefits.

It also creates the need for new generation garment machines (Commercial sewing machines) and the requirement for professional sewers.

Conclusion

It emphasizes how the circular transition necessitates addressing legacy industry concerns due to changing business dynamics and probable job dislocation.

The Brothers With an MC That’s Only Soft for Them

So, cute Headcanons are my kryptonite! Please enjoy, my fluff loving brethren!

Lucifer

We at Stupid Headcanons inc. recommend that MC does not inflate this bastard’s ego further, but if they choose to…

Lucifer, the morning star, a high ranking demon, does not need MC’s affection… that was a lie he C R A V E S it.

This pairing is actually quite complimentary, Lucifer is only soft for MC, MC is only soft for Lucifer, perfectly balanced.

MC shouldn’t expect Lucifer to be too reciprocal to their affections in public until they’re both neck deep into the relationship, but in private, hoo boy.

The “good job!”s, the hugs, the quick pecks on the cheek, all of it just made Lucifer practically melt. He adores all the affection, and it’s all for him.

Finally, someone in this house appreciates him…

“Lucifer, try not to overwork yourself, if you need anything, just ask, okay?” “Thank you, MC.” “Hey MC! I need help, pass me the remote.” “YOU CAN WALK OFF A CLIFF BELPHIE! Love you, Lucifer.”

And to be honest, some of the roasts are funny, but MC, dearest, please dial down the sass near Lord Diavolo.

Mammon

Of course MC’s favourite is the Great Mammon! Heh, who else would it be? Not that he needs this human’s affection or anything!

…screw it, please MC, give him more head pats.

Hand holding, hugs, resting his head on MC’s lap… Mammon’s really living the life.

In public Mammon is constantly trying to get MC to shower him in praise and affection in his own weird tsundere kind of way. It’s good thing MC is always willing to give their demon all the love they have.

It just makes him so happy that all of MC’s affection belongs to him, it makes his greedy little heart sing.

MC’s love and care tragically does not save him from being caught for his shenanigans, but MC, stone cold bitch that they are, will always do something bad to get strung up next to him.

“MC, what’re ya doin’ here?” “Oh you know babe, just hanging around.”

Nothing makes him smile more than when they stick up for him, to MC, he isn’t scummy trash, he’s the great Mammon! Their super amazing guardian! He does what he can to live up to MC’s image of him!

Since Mammon’s super supportive of his human, he’ll always provide reaction sound affects whenever MC delivers a verbal smack down.

Levi

MC likes him? Must be a joke. Who’d like a gross Otaku like him…?

The human exchange student apparently.

They’d listen with a look of pure adoration on their face whenever Levi would ramble about his favourite anime, they’d help him organize his figurines, they’d play video games with him…

Man… MC’s really playing the long con here on this practical joke.

When Levi isn’t drowning in self doubt, he absolutely loves how sweet and gentle MC is around him, a side only he gets to see… *swoon*

A cold mean character that’s only soft for their love interest??? That’s one of Levi’s top five favourite romantic tropes!

Levi’s often taking notes on MC’s snappy remarks so he can sass people while he streams, he’s not too good at it, so he just streams with MC present. His viewership goes up whenever exponentially whenever MC says anything.

“Someone in the chat just said I must be insanely lonely-” “There’s no way in hell you’re lonelier than that guy at night. His bed ranks number one in the top ten loneliest places ever.”

Satan

At first, Satan took more of an analytical interest in MC’s attitude, they’re either suicidally impulsive or very confident in their ability to run from danger if they think they can sass demons and get away unscathed.

Once the two connect and MC goes soft for him, it’s game over. Satan’s weakness is cute things, and nothing is cuter to him than his usually mean MC raining affection and compliments down upon him!

Satan finally has a leg up on Lucifer! The human adores him and isn’t afraid to talk back to that pretentious motherfucker-

MC sits in Satan’s lap and the two read together, they smuggle cats into the house, they lay in bed together plotting the downfall of their enemies… just normal couple things.

Sometimes MC just sits next to him and makes a particularly nasty quip at someone else, then give him a big ol kiss on the cheek.

It just makes him oh so happy…

“Honey, I brought you tea!” “Ah, thank you MC.” “I took it from Lucifer’s private stash of relaxing tea :D” “You really are my soulmate, aren’t you?”

Asmo

Gasp! MC’s so mean! Do it more!

Asmo, sassy god he is, appreciates a good snide remark or twelve, so he’s always got a front row seat to MC’s shennaniganery.

Before the pact, he was back in the peanut gallery with Satan wondering when MC’s words would come back to bite them, but after the pact, nothing’s touching the human. Their sass is completely consequence-less as long as Asmo’s around!

These two are a match made in hell, literally. Asmo and MC get to be so in sync that they manage to make each other’s insults better by working together.

“I’d give you the name of a few surgery places but I don’t think they implant brains into unlucky people like yourself.” “They might be able to implant a better personality though~.”

Asmo’s fully willing to flaunt his relationship in public. Sort of in a “look at us! MC’s only nice to me! Eat shit losers!” kind of way.

It isn’t all vanity and insults, MC always finds a way to make Asmo feel better whenever he’s feeling down. MC makes sure to tell Asmo as often as possible that they love him for more than just his looks, and it makes the Avatar of Lust swoon.

Just as long as MC never turns their razor sharp wit on Asmo, he’s their cheerleader forever.

Beel

Good choice, MC.

Despite his resting bitch face, Beel’s a big softie, everyone knows that, and as the Simpsons said, ‘the strong must protect the sweet’.

Well… MC isn’t as strong as Beel, but they will verbally eviscerate anyone who even dares insinuate anything not nice about their precious gigantic cinnamon roll!

“Listen up bitches! Not you Beel, we’re all glad you’re here.” “^_^” “Y’ALL ARE IN DEEP SHIT.”

Beel loves how affectionate MC is! Doesn’t matter if it’s in public or private, he and MC are almost always at least holding hands.

MC always has emergency snacks on them, they never get upset when Beel eats everything in the house, they just smile and hand over whatever food they have on them and help fix the problem.

Beel is probably one of the only characters who would try and get MC to branch out and be nicer to everyone and not just him. Whether this works depends on MC.

Belphie

Does he deserve this? No. Did he almost start crying when MC began to show him genuine care and affection? Yes. Does he nearly die of laughter every time MC snaps at someone? Yes.

Belphie’s not sure why MC decided that they were going to love him of all demons… but they just… understand him.

They listened patiently and offered a shoulder to cry on, even after he hurt them… their understanding, their compassion, just wow. Belphie really lucked out.

MC lets him nap, fluffs his pillows, reminds him to wash his pillow cases and comforter, gets him sushi, like geez… what a simp… *sniffle*

In return, Belphie offers cuddles. Cuddles and quality time together. For the first time in how many millennia Belphie is going to get off his ass and do something for someone if they ask.

It’s a miracle.

Belphie isn’t one for flaunting a relationship but… he may just let some people know that this super mean human likes him the most by giving his human a quick kiss.

what’s happening in the british television industry?

as promised here is my personal long-ass summary of the direction the tv industry is currently going in and why it’s troubling. for context i’m based in london specifically, i’ve only worked in tv for about 3 years but will soon have an MA in tv studies as well. i’m writing this off the top of my head so sorry if it’s not great stylistically xo

there’s a lot of things you could say on a political level about which MPs are in charge of which things which are definitely concerning but it all gets a bit niche and scattershot and to be honest i don’t know enough about the govt to talk about it in depth, but the two main things i want to talk about are the tv licence (which is being scrapped) and the privatisation of channel 4

i’ve been wanting to talk about the tv licence on here for a long while anyway because while it IS an outdated and flawed system, every criticism i see on here is for the wrong reasons. i don’t think a lot of people really understand what the tv licence is or how important it was in establishing the identity of british television. personally while i don’t have a tv licence myself as i don’t really watch broadcast tv (or british tv in general 😶) and i do think it needs overhauling, i have a real fondness for the concept as a whole.

first, some things that the tv licence is not:

it is not an actual licence that you need to pass some kind of check for (the ‘licence’ part of the name is nearly 100 years old)

it is not equivalent to paying for cable or a streaming service (because it’s non-profit)

it is not ‘needlessly petty bureaucracy’ (which i saw an american on here say.. galling)

imo the best way to think of the tv licence is as an optional tax to fund the bbc. the bbc is (ostensibly) publicly-owned and publicly-funded, which means it needs to be, yknow, funded. it doesn’t have ads so if the money wasn’t coming from the licence fee it would be coming from the govt, so, taxes. as long as the bbc exists ad-free the british public will pay for it.

is the bbc perfect? fuck no! it turns 100 years old this year! it’s archaic and steeped in systemic and institutional problems, it’s built on classism, racism, sexism, every other kind of prejudice, it has a history of covering up a lot of shady business, and it IS needlessly pettily bureaucratic. but also like, have you seen bbc news? if you went to a british school, did you use bbc bitesize? 90% of people in the uk use as least one bbc service every day. it is flawed, but it’s also really important.

also, from a tv nerd perspective, i will reiterate: the british television landscape would not be like it is without the tv licence and the bbc. it would be worse. i am saying this as someone who doesn’t actually enjoy british shows stylistically and doesn’t watch the bbc. it would be so much worse! you know how america has a bajillion channels and theyre all mostly filled with trash and loud shouty reality shows with ads every 3 minutes? that’s because they have a commercial system. vs the bbc which has an obligation as part of its remit to make high quality shows for a variety of audiences, without necessarily having those shows be ‘profitable’ since they’re pre-funded. they are REQUIRED to make shows that are critically successful and actually ‘good’, not just ones that get a lot of views. yes, we have other channels with ads, but as long as the bbc is our flagship channel it holds other channels to a higher standard to compete with.

watching stuff without a tv licence basically amounts to pirating, and i know we all love pirating on here but when you pirate from a non-profit public service all you do is stop them from running at all. there’s no rich stakeholders being screwed over, it’s literally just they can’t afford to do stuff anymore.

so the actual problem with the tv licence in the modern era is the form it takes. originally it made sense for it to be an opt-in system (it was for the wireless originally) because a) the bbc was created to be completely separate from the govt, so needed to collect the money themselves, and b) it makes sense to only pay for something you actually want to use. now arguably these are both still good reasons for the tv licensing system to remain as is. but the problem with it essentially being an optional tax but still being a flat fee means that it disproportionately affects poor people, who are the ones who benefit most from the service. and if only people who use the tv part of the bbc pay (and not all of them do) then that flat fee will keep going up to keep everything running. folding it into normal taxes would mean it would be subjected to the same tax rate, ie people who earn more should pay more towards the running of the bbc and vice versa

so why is scrapping the tv licence potentially a bad thing, if the system does need an overhaul? basically, i don’t trust the government lmao. i especially don’t trust this one. for one thing their staffing and policies have shown they think of tv (not to mention everything else in the country) as a business more than anything else. you wouldn’t believe that this country was basically socialist less than 50 years ago. and i definitely don’t trust them to start messing around with one of the great british institutions. plus, the problem with a solution like tax-funding is it puts the bbc even more into the govt’s pocket than it already is and means it would be part of The Budget.. which can be cut :l honestly the way the current govt functions it’s like everything IS privately owned by The Country and it’s just that residents are stakeholders which is a tangential distinction so. anyway.

all of this brings me to the proposal for the privatisation of channel 4, which they announced yesterday is going ahead. which doesn’t mean it will actually happen, it’s been blocked in the house of commons before, but it does make it more likely and it’s not a great sign

even though the tv licence got the ball rolling on what sets the british tv industry apart, i think channel 4 is the crowning achievement. it is the best of the best the most elegant solution we have at the moment. and i don’t think it’s a coincidence that it’s the channel with most of the tumblr faves on it (derry girls, taskmaster, we are lady parts, it’s a sin, gbbo [acquired from the bbc] - also owns film4 which funded things like the dev patel david copperfield and the everybody’s talking about jamie film).

channel 4 is (for now) publicly owned, but privately funded. so it has a remit and a duty to the public first and foremost like the bbc does, but it’s still funded by ads. this might not have worked, but it has! extremely well! it’s a great blend of shows that appeal to people enough to attract enough ad revenue and shows that represent the underrepresented, and often they find an overlap! it’s also one of the best channels for diversity both on- and off-camera. it’s got a very distinct identity (their ‘complaints welcome’ advertising campaign did the rounds on here) and is seen seen as the alternative kind of edgy channel and it’s a lot more likely than the other big channels to launch new talent or try new things. basically, it’s a hugely important and iconic part of the british tv ecosystem

so you can see why selling it off to a private company would be a huge loss. we already have so many privately owned channels, and it’ll just become another profit-driven organisation with minimal room for the risk or creativity or passion that makes it unique. maybe it’s inevitable given that it’s got a younger audience than most the other channels and most young people are moving away from broadcast media but i still think it’s so sad. but i mean, that’s why bbc3 got made online-only but they brought that back as a channel again so who knows??

(if you’re in the uk and you do want to support channel 4, reminder that the best way to do that is via all4. you don’t need to pay for a tv licence, and unless you’re one of the few households with a barb box they can’t tell what you’re watching on tv anyway whereas they can log you if you use the internet)

#also as ever this is all just like. my opinion based on the best of my knowledge.#looong post sorry.#basically. privatisation bad <3 goodnight #channel 4 #bbc

HAIKYUU!! COUPLES HEADCANONS

DAISUGA

-Daichi goes to the gym to work out. Suga goes to the gym to ogle Daichi

-Suga has a massive sweet tooth

-Daichi cooks, Suga cleans

-Suga is a little shit who is not above seducing Daichi in public. He can say the most lewd things without batting an eye while Daichi blushes furiously

-Daichi and Kuroo once hooked up at training camp. They do not talk about it

-Daichi is good friends with Michimiya and Kiyoko. Suga is closer to Asahi

-Daisuga rarely fight and are often asked for relationship advice. Daichi tries to discourage this because “guys I didn’t realize Yui had a crush on me or that Suga was in love with me for three years.”

-Daichi can’t dance, won’t dance, and refuses to acknowledge the time he got trashed and twerked

-Suga dislikes his given name unless it’s said by Daichi, who is the only person allowed to call him Koushi

-Suga is extremely flexible. Daichi is not.

-Daichi or Suga getting hit on makes Daichi uncomfortable. Getting hit on amuses Suga, and Daichi getting hit on makes him horny

-It took all of high school for Daisuga to get together, because Daichi is oblivious and Suga assumed Daichi wasn’t into him. Daichi’s dumbness and their mutual pining becomes a fond, shared joke several years later

-Daichi has no gag reflex.

-Daisuga have a very fat, very orange cat named Ninja. He’s surprisingly fast and agile despite looking like a furry basketball. (Daichi is a dog person and did not even want Ninja at first. He suspects Kuroo had something to do with this. Suga sometimes playfully gets upset because “Ninja likes you better than me, Dai!”)

-Everyone expects Suga to be the dominant one but Suga is more than willing to be submissive for Daichi and has on several occasions

ASANOYA

-Noya gets up before sunrise to run. Asahi would rather die than leave his bed before 8am

-Noya turns the coffee pot on and cooks breakfast to lure Asahi out of bed

-Noya is surprisingly patient, gentle, quiet, and kind when it comes to Asahi and his insecurities

-Noya is the type to bottle his insecurities and fears until they explode. The only one who can calm him back down is Asahi

-Asahi makes bratty faces when he thinks Noya isn’t looking

-Noya and Tanaka spend a lot of time with Daisuga because of the Daichi&Suga&Asahi&Kiyoko friendship. Asahi and Ennoshita become good friends

-Asahi doesn’t understand the distance between Noya and his sisters because Asahi is very close to his

-It is impossible to embarrass Noya

-Asahi gets a lot of inspiration for his fashion designs from traveling with Noya

-Noya knows how to braid hair and likes to play with Asahi’s

-Asahi enjoys physical affection but dislikes overt PDA. Noya would happily climb Asahi like a tree in public if Asahi would let him

-Only Asahi calls Noya by his given name

-Noya knows he likes Asahi early on but Asahi’s panic (“omg someone LIKES me?? NOYA likes me?? My crush??”) at his confession prevent them getting together until after the Date Tech match (after Asahi rejoins the team).

-Noya is affected by wanderlust and that’s why he travels. Sometimes Asahi joins him. They get married in Canada during one of these trips. (I once read a fantastic asanoya fic where a significant event happened in Canada so Canada is my asanoya place now)

-Noya sends Asahi a postcard from every place he’s ever visited. Sometimes he’ll spend over half an hour trying to find the *best* one, only to buy them all and send them as a sort of big long letter. Asahi saves them all in a photo album that lives on the coffee table. (Some people have a coffee table book, Asahi has a photo album.)

-Noya prefers to top. The one thing he’s really uncomfortable with is being on the bottom (physically laying beneath someone and also sex).

KUROKEN

-Kuroken have a black cat and a calico and enjoy naps on the couch with the kitties. Kuroo has SO MANY pictures in his phone of Kenma curled around the kitties.

-Kuroo: “Love you.” Kenma: “Hate you.”

-Kenma CAN cook, but likes that Kuroo likes taking care of him

-Every game Kuroo has ever owned is multiplayer because he only games with Kenma

-Kenma’s favorite games involve critical thinking and puzzles. Kuroo enjoys watching him play

-Kuroo is an introvert masquerading as an extrovert. Kenma is an introvert. They enjoy quiet nights in.

-Kuroo has anxiety. Kenma always knows when Kuroo is anxious and how to fix it

-People make Kenma anxious. Kuroo makes himself anxious.

-Kenma’s nicknames for Kuroo are Kuro and Koroemon. Kuroo calls Kenma Kyanma and kitten

-Kuroo has been in love with Kenma for as long as he can remember, since they were kids. Kenma knows this, but doesn’t understand he feels the same way until Kuroo goes off to college

-Kuroo is the one who discovered Daichi’s lack of gag reflex. He’s delighted to learn that Kenma lacks one as well

-Kenma moves more slowly than Kuroo. He’s not as comfortable with physical affection and sex as Kuroo is. Their relationship progresses slowly, and Kuroo lets Kenma lead.

-After Kenma’s confession, how he feels about Kuroo is one of the very few things Kuroo does not doubt or make himself anxious over.

-Kuroo can, will, and has go(ne) on and on and ON about Kenma until someone shuts him up. It drives Yaku up the fucking wall in high school.

-Kenma does a retro game stream once or twice a month made up of games he and Kuroo used to play as kids. Kuroo actually games with him on those days and Kenma’s followers are quick to notice and speculate because Kenma has literally never gamed with another person in the same room before. Sometimes Kenma can only post the actual gameplay because Kuroo ruined the footage of them by being excessively sappy. (Kuroo is NOT above flirting and dirty talk to get an edge and Kenma doesn’t really think his fans need to know that.)

-Kuroken do not talk about Kuroo’s mom or sister

-The Kozumes love “Tetsu-chan” and Kuroo’s grandparents adore Kenma. Kuroken get along with each other’s families better than they do their own.

-Kuroo is tactile. He’s that ass-slapping friend. Kenma thinks he’s ridiculous

-Kuroo used to be dislike Hinata, because Kenma and Hinata are extremely good friends and Kuroo was afraid Hinata would take Kenma away from him. Kenma has assured him he doesn’t like Hinata like that but Kuroo doesn’t warm up until Hinata starts dating Kageyama

BOKUAKA

-Akaashi is 100% in charge of the house and the financials and his word is law. Not because he’s an asshole but because Bokuto is whipped

-Akaashi is a screamer. Bokuto has a big dick.

-Bokuto is the calmest between him and his sisters. His sisters have formed an Akaashi fanclub

-Bokuaka kiss a lot during sex

-Bokuto fucking loves owls

-Akaashi used to be embarrassed over being a manga editor but Bokuto thinks it’s the coolest job ever, “even better than mine!” When his authors need references, Akaashi sends them pictures of Bokuto. Bokuto takes this responsibility very seriously

-Bokuaka exclusively refer to each other by first name but Akaashi can’t break the habit of using -san

-Akaashi and Kenma are very good friends. Bokuto thinks they might even be better bros than him and Kuroo. (Kenma is one of the few people Akaashi calls by first name, and one of the only people who calls Akaashi by his.)

-Akaashi overthinks as a result of anxiety, but he doesn’t think he has anxiety. He prefers to call it “seeing the issue from all sides”

-Akaashi and Bokuto do yoga together. Bokuto behaves himself surprisingly well around Akaashi in yoga pants

-Akaashi decided to attend Fukurodani after watching Bokuto play and literally for no other reason

-Bokuaka are the embodiment of love at first sight and their relationship has an unreal, almost storybook quality to it because they are literally perfect for each other. Because of this, Bokuto doesn’t understand why other people struggle so much to start and maintain a relationship, no matter how many times Kuroo tells him “just because your relationship is straight out of a movie doesn’t mean the rest of the world works like that”

-Bokuaka have a koi pond in their backyard and have named all the fish. Bokuto always asks about them when he’s away for games

IWAOI

-Iwaizumi cooks and cleans because he’s always been the one taking care of Oikawa, but he refuses to fold the laundry because “I’m not doing everything for you, you fucking freeloader”

-Iwaizumi cooks healthy “old man food.” Oikawa’s sweet tooth suffers

-Oikawa is that guy who puts more cream and sugar and other additives in his coffee than actual coffee. He’s tried all of Starbucks’ seasonal drinks and never gets the same thing twice

-Iwaoi have very heated arguments about if Godzilla can kick King Kong’s ass or not. Iwaizumi of course sides with Godzilla

-Iwaoi once fought about the original purpose of Stonehenge and now no one can mention England without it coming back up

-Oikawa only became comfortable with his glasses because Iwaizumi likes them

-Iwaoi have been friends since they were in diapers. The whole volleyball team took bets on when they’d announce their relationship

-Both the Oikawas and the Iwaizumis respond when either boy calls for mom or dad. Oikawa calls his sister Nee-chan while Iwaizumi says Oneesan

-Iwaizumi’s favorite of Oikawa’s features is his legs. Oikawa is in love with Iwa’s arms

-Neither of them can remember when they started liking each other or how their relationship started

-Iwaoi are shockingly codependent and do NOT do separation (during university in Argentina/California or for away games) well

-Deep down Oikawa is extremely insecure and worries he isn’t enough - in volleyball, in school, in his family, in his relationship. Iwaizumi always knows when he’s putting on a front and how to cheer him back up

-Iwaizumi is secretly so soft and weak for Oikawa

-After the Olympics Iwaizumi moves to Argentina to be with Oikawa and they get married. They move back to Japan after Oikawa retires from volleyball and after gay marriage becomes legal there

-Oikawa keeps various plants around the house and the patio and is extremely proud of them. He paints all their pots and even names some of them (which Iwaizumi thinks is disgustingly cute). His most prized plant is a lucky bamboo he bought on a whim when iwaoi first moved in together.

-Oikawa can’t deepthroat. It makes him so jealous that Iwaizumi can

-Iwaizumi blushes whenever Oikawa gives him a genuine compliment

-Iwaizumi has a praise kink. Oikawa has a “whatever comes out of Iwa’s mouth” kink

-Iwaizumi has dom tendencies.

sarah i have thought of another fic request or like a cute idea i guess! i didn’t have anyone in mind when i thought of it so you can write it for whoever you want honestly :)

okay so the reader is a streamer but streams games like animal crossing, standew valley, etc. then (insert who you’re writing for) says they don’t like that game, but later ends up buying it and the reader is like “i thought you said you didn’t like this game” and they’re like “well i like you” and they confuses their feelings and they end up playing the game together and reader gives them a tour of their island or farm

i feel like this request isn’t good, but the scenario seemed cute and i wanted to share it. sorry if this is confusing or just too specific cuz i know it can be hard to write requests like that! but yeah i hope it gives you inspiration and you like the request <3

new horizons

warnings: language, a Marvel reference (hint: natasha said it about tony), stupid idiots who don’t realize they like each other, use of pet names, Uno rage, Hasan Piker's presence

words: 1473

tags: sapnap x gn!reader

A/N: i’ve been trying to catch up a little on my requests (i’ve only got a couple so i’m not super overwhelmed) but school and outside life has been taking up most of my time so this one took me a while to make! tbh— ive never played animal crossing so i did google some of the game mechanics and i apologize if anything is inaccurate about the game…. but i liked relaxing and writing this cute one so thank you for requesting hails :3

requests/inbox status: open

“This game is trash.”

Your head quirks, fingers stopped on the screen. You’re in the process of giving your character a cute new nickname; it’s kind of hard to decide between “awkward dude” and “elderly skater”.

“Excuse me?” Your chat comes alive with emotes and ‘KEKW’s, obviously entertained by you and your almost-more-than-friends-friend.

There’s a story for that later.

Sapnap’s rough laugh comes through your headset and he audibly swallows, the sound of a water bottle dropping onto his desk echoing.

“I’m just saying—it’s boring. It’s like Minecraft but you don’t like… do anything.” The grainy image of his bearded face shifts and you see him pull out his phone.

“It’s— you can’t even compare it to Minecraft! It’s a completely different game system—you actually interact with other people live in the game.” You huff out a dramatic sigh, slumping in your chair with a pout. “Just because you go into this lucid state where all you know is ‘touch block, hit George’ doesn’t mean this game isn’t fun.” (He scoffs at your awful impression of his voice. Your viewers love it.)

“Jeez,” he mumbles, fumbling with the cap of his water bottle. “Touched a nerve there, bud.”

You roll your eyes, getting back to the village in the game.

“Don't ‘bud’ me.”

The call falls comfortably quiet, the sounds of him tapping obsessively on his phone and you clicking away filling the silence. A gentle bedroom-pop YouTube playlist remains in the background, prompting you to hum along and glance at the chat to see a flood of “check twitter” and “Y/N TWITTER!!”.

“What happened on Twitter?” You mumble, confused, and pull the website up on another monitor. Sapnap just makes a curious noise, swinging back and forth in a circle. “Oh my God,” you say to yourself, fingertips brushing your parted lips.

“What?”

“Hasan Piker just followed me and retweeted one of my not even remotely political old tweets. Like from a year ago.”

“That’s— wow. Congrats?” Sapnap’s voice cracks, and his ears flush pink the tiniest bit when you glance at his face on Discord.

“I’m gonna go on record and say that he could get it.” You shake your head in disbelief.

Sapnap falls uncharacteristically non-hyper-verbal, so you look past the frenzied chat and to his screen— wait. He muted and turned his camera off.

“Um,” you start, furiously typing question marks in your private chat. “Where’d you go?” You mute and turn screen share off for your stream, concerned that he might’ve fallen off his chair and broken his neck and needs you to call the ambulance.

The characteristic ding of a twitter notification sounds through your bedroom, and you look at your phone quickly.

“That’s where I went.”

Sapnap Tweeted: “all Y/U stans can choke on my dick”.

“Jesus, Sapnap,” you say, and rapidly refresh to read the replies. This tweet was deleted. “That’s so— that barely makes sense, bro. Why— literally what?”

His snicker floods your ears and you relax in your chair. Crisis: averted. “Don’t fucking— what’s wrong with you?”

“I thought it would be funny,” he offers, shrugging, and fiddles with the straw in his water bottle, smile fading. “And also Hasan pisses me off.”

“Why, ‘cause he wants a piece of this? Jealous?” You think back to your viewers, knowing they’re probably spamming question marks and coming to ludacris conclusions about both of your absences. No offense to them. You remember your stan days very vividly.

“I mean, kinda.” He rubs once at his nose, glancing at the camera (and what feels like you) before taking a sip from his water bottle.

“Wow.” You watch one strand of his hair fall from beneath his hat and brush against his full eyebrows. “I’m uh—I’ll get back to my stream. You coming? Or is it time for a Sapnap-snack?”

“What the hell is that supposed to mean?” He snorts and leans his chin onto the balance of his arm.

“That means you like to take a little snack break mid-stream and come back approximately nine hours later and you didn’t even eat.”

“You know what— fuck you.” He flicks the camera as you laugh at the look on his face.

The teasing mood is easily kept as you switch games from Animal Crossing to Uno, all the while slamming Sapnap with +4’s and skipping the newly-arrived BadBoyHalo at any chance you can get. It unironically pisses him off and he has to take a Sapnap-snack break midway through (only a fifteen minute break this time, during which you and Bad take a “What Kind of Bread Are You?” quiz). The rest of the night is filled with devious cackles (you), loud and sudden bangs that sound suspiciously like someone hitting their desk in anger (Sap) and the stupid barking of Rat, AKA Lucy (Bad). She’s cute but a menace to the sound quality of Bad’s microphone. You sign off stream around 2 a.m. with various forms of thanks and kisses blown to the camera. It’s been a refreshing night, actually; you’ve been busy organizing a partnership stream all week and all your friends have been busy filming or editing or what-not. Quackity had time for a little Roblox every couple of days, though. He’s got your back.

The next time you see Sapnap is after a two hour stream of him try-harding in Valorant and you finishing responding to an email from your partnership in the VC.

“Okay, I’m back.” You hear him shift in his chair and click a couple more times on his keyboard. You perk up in your chair, closing the email browser you’d been looking at.

“Do you want to play anything else? I’m down for anything.”

“Absolutely not Uno. You can go to hell for giving me 6 cards that one time,” he jabs. You scoff, crossing your arms and leaning back in your chair.

“Okay, the +4 was on me but it’s Bad who gave you the last two. That’s not my fault, sweetie.”

“Yeah, yeah,” he mumbles, trailing off as the clicking of his keyboard stops. “Hey, um—Guess what?”

Your heart beats loud in your ears at the tone of his voice. He sounds nervous; that’s never good.

“I’m scared to guess,” you try, playing with a little Minecraft dog figurine you have on your desk with fidgety fingers. “What?”

“I bought Animal Crossing.”

Silence. You stare at his discord icon blankly, trying to reroute the wires of your brain.

“Tell me you love it.”

“Well… I haven’t actually played it— but you said you liked it, so.”

“So,” you repeat him, ears warming but continuing on. “Is that what you tell all your friends when you buy something they like? That it's because of them?”

He seems to choose his next words carefully, pausing a beat to consider your questions.

“Well, I don’t have a crush on all of my friends.”

“You—what?” You stutter, caught off guard and stumbling. What did he just say? “Don’t tell me you mean you have a crush on me.”

“I’m almost positive I just did.” His discord icon stares right back at you, taunting.

“You know, you’re very casual for someone who just admitted they like-like me.” Your cheeks flush pink and you have to press a hand to your chest to keep your breathing sounding stable.

“Yeah, I’m kind of cool like that,” he offers, a huff of a laugh punctuating his statement. The conversation moves into a lull that you can’t help but know is because of you. He must expect you to say something about it, right?

“You are very cool, Sapnap.” You tilt back in your chair, sucking in a breath to prepare yourself for your next words. “And—Isortakindofhaveacrushonyoutoo.”

He must understand you, for you can hear the grin in his voice when he asks “Really?”

“Y-yeah.” You feel like a preteen again, all shaky and giddy in front of the boy you just asked to a middle school dance.

“Um, alright. What do we do now?”

“I don’t know,” you answer genuinely and swing in a happy little circle in your chair. “We could play Animal Crossing.”

“I’m down.”

You swear you’ve never heard more beautiful words.

He keeps his camera off for most of the time you two play, too focused on creating his island and asking you questions about how to fish to turn it on. He silently flips it on when you help him decorate his lawn, needing to show you in real-time the decorations he has bought and where you think he should put them. He looks cute. I mean, of course he does. He always does.

You tell him goodbye late in the night, eyes saying a little more than just “see you tomorrow”.

You like him. He likes you.

It’s even better when you two have matching gardens.

A/N: anybody and everybody (especially my precious hailey) let me know what you think!! :]
