In Light Of The Situation Happening Right Now In The USA, I Highly Recommend Retreating From Social Media

In light of The Situation happening right now in the USA, I highly recommend retreating from social media as much as possible and immersing in real life to clean out the gunk of social media type activism

Try as best as you can to track down some old retired folks who have been doing the activism thing for decades. And just old retired folks who care about anything, anything at all.

This crap with labeling the generations and talking like "boomers" are this way and "gen Z" is that way, it's silly to the point of being dangerous.

Younger generations in USA kind of reject the whole thing about respecting and valuing your elders but the truth is, all different kinds of cultures have these values and they're right. Elders have more knowledge and understanding than you can ever find written down anywhere.

And they WANT and NEED young people to connect with them. Elders are suffering more from our society of isolation than anybody else. And they are energized and invigorated by having young people to share their knowledge, information, and stories with.

So often I have been in a room of people majority over 65, wondering where all the "politically aware" gen Z are. And the answer is, they're on social media, arguing with strangers and stressing themselves out, while the "boomers" are getting shit done.

Social media isolates young activists from the most experienced and knowledgeable of all. And it's a dangerous trap for people of all ages who feel lonely and afraid. Either radicalizing them into hateful ideology and cult-style groups, or convincing them of apathy and pointlessness.

go outside, find the elders that know everything, get shit done. This is my advice

I finally watched all 56 episodes of OUAWL (thank god) and I was wondering if you had any fic’s you would recommend? I know withdrawal will be hitting me soon and I want to have some back up stuff just in case!

Sure! Lemme look through my ao3 history lol (it's MOSTLY gonna be coalecroux ngl)

(EXPLICIT) Okay firstly, HAVE to reccomend I Like It When You Lie and its WIP sequel, What Lies Between Us by @sweet-reaper

They're 109k and (currently) 135k respectively, and they're GORGEOUS! The plot is enticing and feels like a proper extension of OUAW itself, and my art made it into the first one!! Great great reads

(TEEN) THE CLASS ACTION DIVORCE OF GIDEON COAL. IS SO FUCKING FUNNY. theres a bit of drama and it feels sorta fast sometimes, but its unironically so entertaining I can't reccomend it enough. I'm glad someone else noticed when Gideon offhandedly mentioned how many marriages he's had before the carnival hfjskfs

(EXPLICIT) What Happened on Grizzlepaw Mountain by @copperboltsblog is really good! It was pretty refreshing to see coalecroux get together pre-canon for once

(GENERAL) Frost, the caretaker is cute! A nice little story about Frost worrying over Gricko and Hootsie

(GENERAL) Catch You When You Fall is another good one, just a bunch of cute snippets between Frost and Hootsie

(EXPLICIT) OBVIOUSLY have to mention Just a Little Bit Mine by @ledetlore, I love their interpretation of Kremy's mom sooo much! The sequel fic Hitching Buckles & Hitching Breaths also looks great but I haven't started it yet...

(NO RATING, MATURE) And then an honorable mention for not a lot, just forever and Weaving Wildfire, by ledetlore and sweet-reaper respectively, which were both gifted to me based on my fankid Lillian and my Gideon braid headcanon <33

(coughs. there's also my own fic, Taking Notes(teen), but i remain humble)

Obviously Spoilers For Nosferatu!

Obviously spoilers for Nosferatu!

Saw Nosferatu with a pal and it was good. The music, the transitions, the gothic feel mwah i love it. But it got me thinking.

Remember the scene when Nosferatu invites Thomas to fool him into signing his marrige away? Thomas is understandably a nervous wreck at this point - unfocused, distracted, *malleable* - so it should be easy to get him to sign and then get rid of him afterwards.

But instead, he keeps him around for several days, feeding on him of course, but not in the grousome way he will feed later on in the movie. Instead Thomas is free to roam his castle, and converse with the Count.

And yes, while Nosferatu is probably gathering strenght for the journey ahead, intending on killing him before departing, what if..

Obviously Spoilers For Nosferatu!

What i propose is Nosferatu is curious about what Ellen sees in her husband. After all he is the only thing keeping her away from his clutches.

Evidence of this would be: How much time the two spend together at the beginning of the movie without bloodshed.

and well.. the second time Nosferatu fed on Thomas - remember this is the first time we see how Nosferatu feeds, by sinking his teeth into a victims heart. We also see later how mercilessly the Count bleed his victims either by draining them dry, or going for the neck.

BUT unlike those times, this is the one time which is similar in how Ellen finally defeats Nosferatu - by sleeping with the beast. Nosferatu is in full display feeding on Thomas, naked and gangly, only for Thomas to wake up dazed in his bed again. By this logic the event *is* more horrific, but we can chalk it up to Nosferatu wanting *a taste*.
