You are our new favourite person. Like a slightly easier to decipher UK Vanessa. Please don’t make us conjure up a mental image of Bellend’s bits n bobs, especially when the word “stiff” is uttered in the same breath. But no, no competition to be seen. Niylah is superior to BlahBlah in every way; picking up the ladies, gangster pimpin around town, and selling her wares down the market. He wishes his bits were as good as her naks.
Niylah’s Nik Naks is the Chanel to Bellamy’s Bits n Bobs’s Walmart.
Niylah’s Nik Naks is the Marks & Spencers to Bellamy’s Bit n Bobs’s Farmfoods
60’s – kisses on the hand, soft acoustics, keeping a journal under the pillow, walks in the rain, old films, a bouquet of roses at the doorstep, secret love letters, old newspaper articles, talking to the moon
70’s – gentle hum of the radio, rose gardens, soft filters, yellow tinted sunglasses, fuzzy sunlight on a meadow, perfumes on silk, pearl earrings, ladybird on an eyelid, french literature
80’s – potted plants on the balcony, stargazing with your best friend, dusty video games, old coffee shops, bike rides to the lake, revisiting childhood nostalgia, flower-embroidered sleeves
90’s – eye circles, midnight drives to nowhere, falling in love recklessly, denim jackets, ripped pages in a diary, thinking about past lovers, listening to music until 3am, the dark phase of sunsets, mixtapes
00’s – believing in magic, smiling at strangers, dreams of being someone, hearing an old song you used to like on the radio, birthday cards from friends who don’t talk to you anymore
10’s – goodnight texts, fairy lights on the wall,flowers on eyelids, the view of a city from an apartment, feeling lonely on the train, sending a million hearts, feeling yourself changing for the better
Not taking anyone’s childish bait today – but I am keeping detailed receipts. FYI.
Found myself angry today at the umpteenth reblog of a post that basically reduced the good and honourable deeds of the Clexa fandom into egotistical bragging rights over the number of notes they have on their posts vs. BeIIarke fans. The post(s) was a pile-on of bludgeoning a blarke in question with so many ‘Look! We’ve got more than you! You could never! Neener Neener Neener’ moments it was absurd and ugly, from the beginning.
They reduced the good and honourable deeds of the Clexa fandom into weapons for a shipping war. Into ego-driven bragging. Into a shallow pursuit of putting one over on a fandom so hated that the poison is clearly running both ways.
Let’s get this clear: the Clexa fandom has NOTHING to prove to anyone, ever.
If you’re going to take the bait over everyone who says ‘we’re better than you’ or ‘our ship is better than your ship’ or whatever BS someone pulled, if you think everything this fandom did in the name of better representation and charity is just so a handful can have a field day using it to bash and smash other human beings (no matter who they are or what they do) in a juvenile display of Social Superiority – you’ve lost the thread. If this is just about numbers, you need to recognise that no matter how many ‘notes’ or ‘views’ or ‘likes’ you have, this does not equate to ‘we’re better than you.’ If it did, various Youtubers wouldn’t be reviled human beings. More equals better is a fallacy. A humiliating one, at that.
It’s also beyond the point.
The good and noble deeds of the Clexa fandom – shifting an entire industry toward better representation, raising money for a school and other charities – were not done in order to bludgeon others with the data. They were and are done, hopefully, in selfless service to others, to improve our world and our community. No one has any right to use those good things for their own personal vendetta.
The show is coming back, the cons are on and dragging is going to happen. We can have fun with that without turning it into bloody target practice. Stop caring what any blarke thinks. If they are trying to reach into your space – block them. Don’t engage, block them. Ignore. Rise above.
I was told once that the best revenge is to live well. We have nothing to prove. NOTHING.
Because if we’re not building up, making things better for ourselves, our community, for others – what are we doing?
Happiest of birthdays, @lolana07! Hope you get a little spoiled and have loads of fun. 🙂
