watching pole vault instead of revising for my upcoming philosophy test like the heathen i am
Like really, everytime I spend a couple day without doom scrolling through reels or tik tok i'm feeling better.
Our parents were rights... phones are the problem.
Monty: Cool bracelet. Great statement piece. Metaphor for homosexuality. I Know What You Are
Edwin: Astrology sucks
Monty, before leaving: Keep it cute, Capricorn :)
Niko: Haha gay
Edwin: He's not gay. Unlikely. He's a ghost chaser who likes fucking ghosts. Nbd.
Niko: I like pornographic yaoi

I am a realist, and I'm telling you all, with the utmost confidence, that there is hope for saving this show so long as we continue to fight. The cast and crew themselves have given, and continue to give, every indication that there is hope for this show.
As we make noise online and advocate for it, the showrunners are given the ammo they need to fight behind the scenes, so DO NOT STOP.
Worst case? You pour a shit ton of love onto a story that is meaningful to you, and onto people who played a role in bringing it to life. Best case, we drum up enough noise that viewership increases (this is already happening), and the show is ultimately saved.
Many shows have been saved. Ours can be, too. There is absolutely no reason to despair. Dead Boy Detectives was released on two "Best-Of" lists just today. The Sun, the Los Angeles Times, Esquire, CNet, and even the goddamn DAILY MAIL are just a few notable publications that revered Dead Boy Detectives and lamented its cancellation THIS WEEK. Dead Boy Detectives has the best audience score of any DC television adaptation to date; the only one that I found that's even in the same league audience-wise is The Penguin which is new and being called a "Hit..." and IT HAS THE SAME AUDIENCE SCORE AS DEAD BOY DETECTIVES (91%).
Dead Boy Detectives even has a better critic and audience score than its parent show, The Sandman, for fucks sake. Its audience score beats out some of the longer-running DC shows by a mile. It is, objectively, a success.
So keep making noise, keep streaming like the actors are still encouraging you to do. I'll tell you this; it's been two months of silence from Netflix, but that's not a bad thing. They dodged THE NEW YORK TIMES who inquired about the Dead Boy Detectives cancellation by choosing not to give a statement. They know this decision wasn't a good one, and all it takes is the right amount of pressure from audiences to get things done.
I've lamented show cancellations in the past and never fought to save a single one because the numbers were bleak, or Netflix was clear with their reasoning, or even the showrunners themselves told us not to fight because it was a lost cause. That is NOT the case with Dead Boy Detectives. The more we dig, the more we find, and new people are watching this show every day because of the noise being drummed up. The more of us that fight, the better chance we have.
So keep making art and fics, keep making noise, keep recommending this show to anyone who will listen, and believe that we can save this show. The only people who benefit from us giving up are the same ones who canceled it, and why should we give them that satisfaction?
i think ultimately you do really have to kill that part of your brain that vividly imagines how you would redo parts of your life.

I don't know if it's the same in every country, but I know that in France you have to be of a certain weight (more than 50kg) to be able to donate blood.
So I guess since I'm a small human (like pocket-sized, I am considered the smallest person of my class, and even have a title because of that, a not so glorious one but it's just part of my school's funny traditions anyway), I can't donate blood, or I could if I eat before !
migraines suck.
wdym your head hurts much you feel like someone is drilling a hole in your eye.
I know i'm attractive, but at the same time i know that am i not pretty. Like I know i am self confident but at the same time not enough to think i'm pretty.
