“This Sentence Has Five Words. Here Are Five More Words. Five-word Sentences Are Fine. But Several

Um, I don't really see the problem? Like, any "ZOMG KURTSIE YOU DIDN’T TELL BLAINERS FIRST" freakout would have been pretty stupid, because a) it's not as though Blaine was actually at school to run and tell, and b) Burt basically called dibs on giving Blaine the news like the second after Kurt opened his letter. XD

I also don't see why it's a problem that Kurt's question caused her to have that moment. The drama isn't even in the fact that Finn wasn't the first person she told. It's just that now that Rachel has realized that her dreams haven't gone completely down the drain, she has to figure out if accepting Finn's proposal is something she did in a moment of defeat, or an inevitable decision that she'd have eventually made regardless of the circumstance. That's... a pretty legitimate source of romantic drama and suspense, at least for Glee.

The whole Finn v/s New York thing has been presented as a conflict of interest for Rachel since the end of last season, so it looks like they're just following through on that. Kurt and Blaine on the other hand have never been shown to have any such conflict, (even despite the year of long-distance relationship they're in for) and seem pretty secure in their plans to end up in New York together, so of course it isn't presented as quite as big of a deal. (For now.)

Hang on a second

The MJ episode ended with Kurt asking Rachel if she told Finn, or what Finn said or whatever and then Rachel had that look on her face and there was that moment of thought where she was likewait, how did i not even think of Finn do i actually love him is getting married a mistakeand blahblahblah cliffhanger ending.

PROBLEM.

Um, did we see Kurt run to tell Blaine? No. The first one he ran to was Rachel. Was there any mini freakout of “ZOMG KURTSIE YOU DIDN’T TELL BLAINERS FIRST” ? Lol, no.

So how come with Finchel it was a bigger deal? 

how i design trolls

yesterday there was a bit of talk about body type variation in how people draw the trolls on my dash! it made me think of how i approach drawing the trolls, and boy do i think about that a lot, haha. 

it’s taken me a while to come up with my solid “headcanon” for the trolls shapes/faces, but now that i kind of have it down, i have trouble drawing them any other way. 

my “shtick” for drawing trolls is that i base their entire design around their symbol/shape of the horns/zodiac/personality. in animation there are several visual stereotypes for different types of characters, and i basically just utilized these to create a cast of stylized characters that have variety but look like they could all belong to the same universe (and actually the 12 trolls are all related in some way so there are some shared traits between them.)

ANYWAYS, i am going to share with you my design rationale for each of the trolls. i wouldnt say so much this is “body type headcanon” and more like “character design pitches” haha. i haven’t tried to make every character like something wildly disparate from how fandom at large draws them— for a reason! certain stereotypes exist for a reason, because they are easily recognizable and relatable to the audience. 

AND NOW, onto my explanations! (with crappy sketches)

1st attempt at water-marbling. This wasn't the most interesting water marble because I was pretty hesitant about messing up the design and ruining everything, but it came out nice enough to give me the confidence to do it again, and I've had far too much fun practising and refining this technique. There are just so many colour combinations and patterns to try and experiment with, and I love that while you can control how it looks to an extent, the nature of the technique ensures that no two nails will look exactly the same. I'm gonna do a little bit of a photo spam of all the water marble designs I've done that I remembered to take (crappy cellphone) pictures of.

Colours used: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear White On, Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Green With Envy, and Nabi Metallic L. Blue (the name is a lie, this colour is very green)

Blaine is the first person to truly see Kurt. Every bit of him. The pain, the need, the terror, the potential for bravery.

We find out, vaguely, that Blaine went through a situation similar to Kurt. He...

Oh hey, Teddy. What's up? Just speaking thruths and reminding me why I love you? Cool, cool, I'm just gonna be sitting over here, trying to contain my fondness.

Oh ha, I guess I should have clarified that the pseudo-science I'm talking about specifically is the in-book explanation that ~solar radiation~ powerful enough to wipe out most white people somehow left PoCs mostly intact. I mean, the narrative itself mentions off-handedly that 'coals' can get skin cancer on occasion, but aside from being just illogical and stupid, the idea that a PoCs melanin protects them from radiation powerful enough to kill most of the poor delicate white people just seems so damn skeevy and racist in a really antiquated way.

So I just wanted to put it out there that aside from being incorrect pseudo-science, the whole concept of Black people’s melanin protecting them from skin cancer reeks of social darwinism. :/

Probably for the best. At least I won’t be disappointed.

But somebody please cheer me up? Convince me that I’m wrong. Please?

=/ But didn't you read that article? I could understand being concerned or whatever about producers or the network or someone changing the episode if the writer had brought ANY new information to the table, but it is seriously just a hodge-podge of spoilers and interviews that we've already seen and heard. She has not seen the episode, she has no inside scoop, and she is seriously just posting her own speculation on a website that would just as easily accept an article written by you or me.

Ausiello is a credible source because he actually has a relationship with Glee PR that allows him to get the inside scoop. If the episode was being changed, they would not throw him under the bus by keeping him out of the loop. They would let him know so he could retract his statement (as he has done in the past,) and retain his credibility.

Extremely pessimistic about episode 5 now

If you can correctly pronounce every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world. After trying the verses, a Frenchman said he'd prefer six months of hard labour to reading six lines aloud. Try them yourself.
