So the media keeps mentioning this bill as a TikTok ban but the actual contents are even more concerning. The bill is called the RESTRICT Act and targets six "enemy" countries from the US. It is very vague and gives the government an excuse to restrict citizens' access to foreign technology competing with US companies.
Why do I imply this is about boosting US tech monopolies and not national security concerns as the government claims?
From the article: "But the bill’s implications go beyond TikTok. It’s designed to let the federal government pre-empt situations in which technology produced in any of the six authoritarian countries named in the bill becomes popular in the U.S."
Hi its me again. So i loved last headcanons So much and I was thinking maybe Billy and Tiffany mom-son relationship? Like Tiffany being great and loving mom to Billy?
I got you covered don’t worry
Listen after Chappell Roan literally promoting AI “art” I’m just gonna say this; Chappell Roan fans have always given me queer Swifties vibes I mean think about it their parasocial as hell I mean if you do a comparison you’ll find no difference between the two. The difference is one are just a bunch of straight cis white pick me women who still cry about their breakup from middle school the other are those lesbians/queer pick mes who get mad when anyone who isn’t what they consider queer enough doesn’t like them and won’t date them and they cry wondering why in the hell they don’t want to date them
I remember I got attacked and sent death threats for calling her an industry plant when my god that’s what she literally is. She’s literally the definition of one
She’s not “revolutionary” or “radical” she’s just another industry plant with too much money, no creativity whatsoever besides ripping off glam rock, Lady Gaga and Madonna and her songs are straight ass and wouldn’t even be popular had it not been for some insufferable pick me queers using it to prove their “different” but doesn’t want to support the visual artists who helped her get to where she was
Yes ok she “worked so hard” as some of you fans claim but let me ask you just this once;
If she worked so hard and recognizes hardwork for artists then why does she have to use the easy way out instead of encouraging artists to work on their art?
Can you tell me that?
Also just fyi to make you Chappell fans mad
Good Luck Babe and You Belong to Me are the same pick mes anthems in different fonts
And yes her stans are gonna be blocked their so stupid they need to defend a millionaire anyways so it’s not worth arguing with them
He's 20 years
His name is Tim but his friends call him Brody
He listens to a lot of underground music but will listen to the distillers
He lives with his uncle who is a mechanic as his dad Dallas was an abusive piece of shit to him and his grandparents often joined in on the beatings before CPS got involved when he was 5 and after pulling a gun on the case worker was sentenced to five years and he now lives with his uncle
He's bisexual and has crush on Mark. Of course Mark shares same feelings as him
He has lots of tattoos of his favorite bands and horror movies
He’s actually more traditional punk like what Matthew Lillard wears during slc punk
And I can totally see Tim helping his uncle as mechanic
And his cousin Sidney who’s five but she loves his punk style and of course he protects her
Tim often takes Sidney to punk concerts and she enjoys them
And they love watching horror movies but his uncle makes Tim take her to Disney princess movies instead but they go to horror movies instead
He’s very tall like around 6’2-6’5 and that’s pretty intimidating to most ppl
And I can totally see Tim helping his uncle as mechanic
And of course while they live in a shitty neighborhood he still beats the shit out of the rich kids who wanna talk shit
Oh yes and luna loves babysitting Sidney.
His favorite bands are X-ray Spex, the distillers, Green Day and the offspring
Tim got a new Chevy that his uncle fixed up for him on his birthday and Tim now loves that car
He and Luna get along cause their the only alt people who know what it’s like to be an outcast
His uncle has a very scary Doberman who hates anyone who isn’t the family
Oh but since Tim introduced luna to his uncle his dog started to like her. Also Tim likes to play guitar
He’s in a band and they usually play at music bars where his friends play and he plays guitar and is the lead singer
Idea for character and headcanons goes to @peachyfuck18

.·:*¨¨*:·. SLASHERS REACTIONS TO THEIR FANDOMS !
✧ SYNOPSIS . . . how different slashers react to their fandoms [requested but I accidentally posted it oopss]
✧ FEATURING . . . patrick bateman, vincent sinclair, bo sinclair, billy loomis, billy lenz, stu macher, brahms heelshire
⤷ patrick bateman
okay this is going to be fun
his (already huge) ego gets boosted sm by the like “sigma” edits and shit of him
not to be cliche but the “I bet paul allen doesn’t ____” sort of comments make him feel so high and mighty
and seeing how many people find him hot? god he would become even more insufferable
BUT HERES THE FUN PART
he delves more into the patrick bateman edits and stuff and that’s when he finds the satirical shipping, cutesy edits, etc
he sees himself and the word “babygirl” put together and has a full blown meltdown
god I’d be so funny cause it’s literally 50/50 in the fandom so he couldn’t separate one from another if he even tried
AND THE SHIPS
oh, he would just be gagging at the louis x himself ships
idk I feel like he would go “take this down now 🤬”
he’s so edgy 12 year old boy yk
AND THE EDITS
patrick practically passing out when he seems himself edits with anime blush and cat ears
his masculinity was already bruised by the ships and now this?
he 100% posts some of the edits about him on his socials
he also sends the links to these vids to people he dislikes to prove his “fame”
the fame goes to his head but he gets humbled when he sees everyone calling him “my pathetic malewife bbg ❤️”
⤷ vincent sinclair
I just love vincent sm and so does his fandom
I have not once met someone who hates vincent
he is so insecure and humble and just deserves to see everyone complimenting him and his wax figures
he loves his fandom to say the least
and they absolutely adore him trust
definitely gets confused by some of the compliments he gets
example a: “If he doesn't want me to slut him out, why waist so slutty?”
^^ yes I did find that on here
is in disbelief ppl can find him attractive let alone say things sexual about him
he has rlly rlly low self esteem okay
if he ever tried to interact with his fandom online I have two different directions in my head
IS AWFUL ON THE PHONE
typos and everything
but it’s so sweet
“THank yu 🙂”
he has big fingers and struggles to type ^^
or if he gets adjusted it’s perfect grammar
“I appreciate you for this. Thank you so much.”
hes just a big ol boy getting the praise he deserves
⤷ bo sinclair
this one is a bit tricky
he isn't too phased by the compliments unlike his brother
he knows he hot
so “daddy” “so hot” compliments r not new to him
BUT I think stuff like “I want to see him whimper” will make him feel VERY FLUSTERED
but he doesn't get a bigger boost in his ego
I feel like it doesn't go to his head cause he is already pretty confident in his looks yk
but seeing people appreciate him for his personality?
it definitely gives him more hope that he's worth more than his looks
this one is short but he wouldn't interact with the fandom
like he seems so Facebook dad to me
basically he is tolerates his fandoms
it's nothing special
⤷ billy loomis
ANOTHER TRICKY ONE
billy is so tricky for me tho
honestly it goes to his head
seeing ppl in awe about him ^^
he’s a slasher fan too so he is more active in other fandoms if that makes sense
but does like to delve into theories and discussions about ghostface and the scream franchise with members of his fandom
rlly enjoys knowing he is considered one of the “well known” slashers
honestly he feels threatened by danny johnny from DBD because when u search ghost face a lot of content surrounding him pops up a long with stu and billy
he loves the fame basically
I do get the feeling he hates the image ghostface has tho
like the “thirst traps”
he's just the type of guy who calls people “posers” and “fake fans”
so that rlly irritates him
if you know a lot about slashers/ghost face he's chill
he likes his fandom but there’s definitely outliers with the people who know ghostface but not who’s behind the mask
he wants the notary
⤷ stu macher
LOVES HIS FANDOM
he loves being worshipped by his fandom
all compliments, all fanart, all of it he loves
teases Billy sometimes about the posts
sends scream memes to his friends
feels guilty tho when he sees vids and his and Tatum’s relationship
like that’s the only downside for him
he responds to fans, tells “insider” stuff, etc
Stu is very active in his fandom
he thrives off of it essentially
definitely set up a cameo or something at one point and says his iconic lines from the movie
+ try’s to get fan service out of Billy
hes like an obnoxious youtuber
REPOSTS EVERYTHING
edits? yes
fanart? yes
fanfic…?
yes.
he’s not rlly sad either that billy gets more attention than him cs if you love stu you LOVE stu
calls his fandom “machiacs”
cause macher + maniac
but he does think he’s more famous than he actually is
like if someone doesn’t recognize him he’ll go “I’m THE stu macher”
fanservice king!!!
⤷ billy lenz
no shame at all
he will repost smut/hentai of him
loves his fandom cause they’re as equally as horny as he is
but I think he does see that he is desirable in more ways when he finds like fluff imagines
loves his fanart the most
he would try and redraw the fanarts but they turn out horribly
he 100% try’s to interact with his fandom
key word is try
he doesn’t type but does the voice to text thing
so all his replies and post end up
JEJSNSBSHSISJJSNS *insert heavy breathing* HSHDNDJSJSK
his poor phone can’t keep up :(
he doesn’t understand the fandom but he loves them
“billy boy my beloved ❤️”
^^ those are his favorite types of fandom interactions
⤷ brahms heelshire
refuses to have internet
straight up refuses
but I feel like he's the only one who would dislike his fandom
and j mean actively dislike
if he saw how many people call him “stinky wall boy”
Let's just say he would have a fit
only thing he would like is people saying he's better than other male characters
but literally that's it
hates everyone and everything about his fandlm
he thinks of them as lowly or without class
its just best if he never finds out about his fandom
✎ notes . . . I rlly js wanted to do patrick but I actually had a lot of fun doing the others!!
This little bitch wants to DM me now?
Too late!
Billy Loomis in gothic Lolita?
