Description
Two vents in a day??? I'm just as surprised as you are!
What a treat!
...For you.
I'm suffering.
Yer welcome.
In all honesty this one was spur'a-the-moment, i slapped this together right before bed last night because once more, a straw has broken my back.
~~The Exposition You Probably Don't Care About~~
I don't care about football.
Never have.
I don't get it, idk how you play it, i don't get the rules, i think it's kinda ridiculous that a bunch of men invented ramming into each other and risking life-threatening or life-altering injuries for the sake of catching a shit-shaped/colored ball (the last post broke me, give me some time to recover), i've never understood how some football fans go so hog wild that they literally throw things, punch walls or even harm their partners (yes i'm serious) in fits of excitement or rage, and i've DEFINITELY never understood why they get paid so goddamn much.
And in childhood, there was actually one singular time i wanted to become interested in football, just because i knew my dad liked it.
I liked playing little ball games with him, and since virtually all he cares about are ball games, abusing horses or politics, i would do some backyard baseball and football with him...
Mostly just throwing/hitting the balls and getting praised.
Turns out i've always actually been quite gifted with sports, i have mean hand-eye coordination and learned how to throw a spiral on day 1.
But...just not my thing!
But one day...
One day my classmates were all going full lunatic over some game which would be featuring the Colts...
I don't even know what state they're for, dude
Is that how that works, it's by...state...?
Or...
Fuck me -- I DON'T CARE.
But everyone was fucking excited about this game, and i knew my dad loved the Colts.
I was in grade school, and all the kids were drawing pictures of the logos and the teachers seemed supportive of the hype.
All in all, everyone seemed so happy and united over this one thing i didn't understand, and because i knew my dad was surely enthused as well, i wanted to be involved.
My teeny little monkey brain was like, "i'm missing out. I wanna be part of this, too, maybe i can even learn to like it."
That was a big deal for an Autistic child who lived in their own little world as heavily as i did.
So...i drew the Colts logo and wrote "Go Colts!" in big blue letters on a paper.
And i came home from school, chilled out, and my parents were making dinner.
The upcoming game got brought up.
So since i was giving change a chance, i ran in with my paper and brought it up a few times, and when i even put my fists in the air with my floppy little drawing in hand and said "Go Colts!" with a big clueless grin on my face, my father turned and looked me in the eye, scoffed at me with an arrogant grin and said, "Since when do you care about football???"
Aaand...that pretty much sucked all the wind out of my sails.
I don't remember saying anything.
I just walked away, totally shut-down, and that pretty much sealed my fate in terms of caring about sports all together.
My dad had made it clear to me that i was not welcome in his world, and thus other sports fans no doubt felt the same way.
That weekend when the game was on, while i had initially planned to hang out with my parents and try to be involved, i remember just sitting in the living room in the dark and watching the Timon and Pumba Disney show all fuckin' day.
I genuinely remember feeling so jaded and sad (which was honestly really unlike me, it mimicked a watered down version of emotions i find myself often feeling as an adult), and worse yet that no one noticed or cared.
Because ah, average Alyssa, isolated in the living room watching shows and being antisocial!
Hell i even remember turning off the lamp and my dad barking at me to turn it back on, and i barked back that THEY had the lights off in the den, so???
After a moment's thought, he allowed it.
If i wasn't already feeling dejected, that finished me off.
And that's the story of how Fae came to be the world's biggest football grinch for the next 20+ years!
No one asked for that, but i've wanted to tell that pitiful little story for a long time.
I'll get to what you clicked on for eventually, no worries (and i'm sorry, i just have a lot to say).
~~Settin' Ya Up Here~~
Since i've been living with my dad, i am exposed once more to frequent and annoying amounts of football, and i swear to god, Super Bowl is always happening.
I swear it happens like two or three times a year, i feel like i live in Super Bowl purgatory or something because it just takes up so much memory space on society, and sports nuts are never not thinking about it.
So while that's annoying enough, my mom has always cared a bit about sports, but in recent weeks she has been VERY interested in football.
Well, more specifically, she's turned into a horny old cougar who likes to watch these big beefy brutes jiggling and jumping and whatever and i respect that.
Any time to objectify men is a good time for me (jokiiiinnggg [mostly]).
To be nice, i sometimes sit out with my parents while a game is on just so they don't think i hate them and so i can feel like a member of a family for like an hour.
I typically just edit art on my phone.
But that's getting harder, because my mom is fixated on two dudes in particular.
Patrick Mahomes, and Jason Kelce.
And so, yes, Taylor Swift is in there, because she is dating Travis Kelce.
This is a tad funny to me, as my mom hates her music, so thus has always been a bit salty when she pops up everywhere.
But seeing how stupid people have been about her online, she's kinda taking a shine to the world's current mega music star.
As for me by the way i don't have anything against Taylor, i like some of her songs and she seems funny and self-aware, so it's whatever.
If i follow someone or something and they talk about her too much i just mute or unfollow, it's really not that deep.
You can even filter words on some websites, so...do that if you're so imposed upon.
My mom loves Mahomes in particular, she's very attracted to him and now...i kinda am too
Like i think he's cute is all.
I think part of the human love language is just finding yourself fond of something because someone you care about is fond of it, and neglecting that he's adorable, the man is great at what he does and puts up with a lot of shit.
Which i wouldn't know, if my mom wasn't constantly showing me content about him, as well as the Kelce bros.
Jason's her favorite and i support that.
So she's always sending me memes, showing me their podcast stuff, showing me footage of Patrick Mahomes, and with all that territory comes the lobotomites that ruin it for everyone.
She has also shown me the hate, the bad sportsmanship, sore losers and conspiracy theorist Trumper grade school drop-outs.
And honestly?
I might not know much, but i know enough now to have an opinion, and you best trust and believe i won't pass up an opportunity to bitch about something.
I often feel annoyed by my mom showing me all this shit as she will bombard even my personal time to show me things, but it's an evolution from what she used to only talk about, which is her job (which involves constantly talking about food, shit, and old people piss and shit, and diapers, and animal piss and shit, because she is a caretaker for elderly clients...and if you've read my last post, you understand i just can't fucking get enough of that topic -__- ).
I feel like a baby bird just strapped into the nest, having my mouth pried open by this goliath modern-day dinosaur i call "mom," where she then jams her gigantic beak down my tiny throat and forces regurgitated information and nonsense she has acquired into the gut of my non-consenting brain.
And like it or not, it has become part of me, and now that i am a grown bird myself, i will continue the cycle of violence and force feed you the same swill that i have been sustained on for weeks.
Open wide, bitches, because this is untapped territory for me...
~~Bad Fans, Bad Manners~~
This probably isn't news to actual sports fans, but there are some real batshits out there.
I think i'll start with the Patrick Mahomes hate.
There is an ocean of people who boldly comment saying Mahomes runs/walks like a girl, is effeminate about how he moves and treats everything, they make fun of the suit he wears when he shows up for games, they make fun of his voice, the like.
(PS if you make fun of someone for being effeminate or just being like their opposing gender in general, you are a jumbo boomer loser and you can just take that shit back to the 60's because no one fuckin' asked you.)
Basically he exists and, while in most cases i don't fall for the "they're hating because they're jealous" jank, this time i think it's true.
I'm sorry your team's quarter back isn't as good as Patrick, but that's the hand you get dealt sometimes.
Yeah he's tiny and nasally and runs funny, but he actually gets the job done and apparently does it really fucking well.
And no, he's not the only one carrying the Chiefs, but he's a major component and is super graceful about the flack he gets.
He exploded on someone one time for making a comment, but apparently that happens a lot and it didn't get physical, i don't think.
Correct me if i'm wrong.
It was really disappointing to watch Bills fans throw snowballs at him and boo him out of the stadium, and then learn that the hot water had gotten shut off to the Chief's locker room after the game, allegedly by the Bills themselves.
That's so fucking embarrassing, like it's not like he cheated or did anything wrong as far as i'm aware.
He just played the game and his team won, so he got shit on.
And that probably happens all the time, but it's comforting that for as many lifeless trolls and head-too-empty-to-even-feed-zombies shit sacks, there are dozens more who don't like to see sore losers and bad sportsmanship.
This isn't a fucking war, it's a game.
We're literally taught as children to enjoy games for the fun and not the win, and then grow up to do the total opposite, as bred by watching adults before us, and then we live to be the bad example while teaching something else.
Honestly it takes maturity and imagination to manage negative emotions, and this just tells me that the Bills' stands were full of diaper-baby criers and unhappily married peaked-in-high-schoolers.
People who live vicariously through football players make me so sad, like get a life.
In spite of all the horseshittery Patrick has put up with lately, he's taken it in stride.
I actually got to witness that by watching part of the Chiefs's face-off with the Ravens, which was a crazy fuckin' game.
Again, to my uneducated eyeballs, it was nuts.
The Ravens were beaten out by the Chiefs, which was apparently a really difficult and impressive feat, but even some Ravens fans will admit, that team played themselves.
Some are saying the game was "rigged" (you can guess who those people want for President), but like...no.
A healthy dose of speculation is good, but in this case if you watched the game, lmao NO IT ISN'T.
I don't know fuck about shit about football and i watched those black-and-blue morons screw themselves every time they turned around.
I watched a man literally remove himself from the game by getting so butthurt that he slammed his hand repeatedly into a bench(?) and cut his hand, and thus i believe couldn't play.
How fucking stupid can you be?
Also, the Ravens played dirty.
There's footage of defensive lineman Travis Jones hitting Mahomes in the face mask, which is considered a very, very dirty move.
In another instance, someone basically folded him like a fucking lawn chair, and the bastard still got up and threw a mean fuckin' ball.
THEN, as my mom has shown me, Ravens player Justin Tucker apparently has some dumbfuck habit of doing his warmups on the opponents' side of the field like...a lot.
So he showed up there and put his helmet and some footballs down in front of him, right next to some Chiefs, and chad Travis Kelce just walks by and picks them up and casually throws them out of frame.
Not violently, not super maliciously, just like tossing away some trash that was in his way.
When players do shit like that, it's just to psych the other team out.
Another vid shows a Ravens player throwing down like...a fuckin'...metal rod on the ground...??
In front of Mahomes and then turning and jogging away.
No shit, Mahomes immediately bent down, picked up the rod and tossed it out of sight without ever turning his head, and was standing back up and totally casual again by the time the Raven dude turned around to look at him.
I CACKLED at the nonchalant nature of this man, he cannot be bothered
Basically, the Ravens fucked themselves, played DIRTY and STILL didn't win.
So if that's "rigged" i don't know how, because as mean and nasty as the Ravens were about everything, it doesn't feel like a paid inside job to lose.
It's not just fans that go too far or are annoying, but actually professional reporters and show hosts piss me off more than anything.
Maybe that's because i'm begrudgingly exposed to it EVERY SINGLE DAY OF MY LIFE by my dad watching hundreds of them a day (i can hear one right now, i'm honestly annoyed), but the loudness, excessive heated arguing and the die-hard favoritism of preferred players just is so...i guess...juvenile?
Look don't get me wrong, i don't have an issue with people just having fun, being excited, getting hyped, having favorites, or this being what their lives are dedicated to.
That's fine!
Everyone has something they get wound up about.
But way too many people act like football is life and death...
CALM YER PAINTED TITS!
And if you don't know much or your interest is limited, you're unwelcome and it's such a drag.
That's high school shit, grow up.
Before the next section i wanna talk about people bitching that Jason Kelce was shirtless up in the booth or whatever during the one game, some being weird saying "nObOy NeEdS tO sEe ThAt" and i'm like...?
Listen, i'm straight, and i'm not big into "bears."
Ya know, big thick burly men with beards and all the hair, the like.
But like...DAYUM.
Why are you complaining?
He doesn't have saggy flabby pancake moobs, he doesn't have 100 rolls of gut fat jiggling everywhere (like every other drunk shirtless lunatic in stadium stands), he doesn't have gross unwashed body hair, i mean he actually looks pretty damn good.
He looks like a nearly accurate depiction of Thor from real Norse mythology.
He's not just fatty, it's MUSCLE.
He's just BIG.
Jason Kelce is a human wall and, as someone who doesn't like body hair that much or bigger guys, would 100% smash.
His chest pubes are fucking luxurious, i've never seen anything like it
SHIT, bro.
My only grievance with his shirt being off is in society either everyone should be allowed to go totally topless or no one should.
Tits are tits, end of story.
~~Tin Foil Conspiretards~~
Football fans being losers is old news.
And in our politically-degraded current social climate, conspiracy theories aren't usually riveting, either.
But this...is interesting to me.
So apparently, Taylor Swift is open about her political alignment, and is anti-Trump.
Great!
Love that.
It's normal for some people to be Republicans, and it's normal for some people to be Democrats.
And in a world where a confirmed rapist and Epstein-island dweller and suggested desired daughter-fucker with decades of fraud under his belt has been elected President before and nearly broke our country in half, yes, it's normal for people to be AGAINST having someone like that in office.
So knowing she has an ENORMOUS audience and voice, and knowing youths will pay attention to her, yes, she's called for this nation to be united against that threat to our country.
But according to the Trump cumdumpsters, her speaking out is a paid inside job by Joe Biden to ramp up his campaign, and that because she's dating Travis Kelce and the Chiefs keep winning games, there's some rigging and it all ties back to Biden.
...
I'm going to give you a minute with that.
*sips coffee*
.......
*visits the bathroom*
*stretches and rolls around on the couch for a few minutes*
...
*suggests "the Farmer Wants a Wife" as a new series for my dad to watch*
Mkay, i'm back.
You got that all digested?
Yeah.
Not the craziest conspiracy by any means, but it caught me a little off guard, won't lie.
I guess Trumpers are just gonna do the Trumper thing, it is what it is.
And obviously there's no evidence to back that up.
But since people like that are so religious and weird about football all together, why not do a few weird dances or whatever rituals you may or may not do to just...make it go away?
Since you probably believe sitting in a specific spot, wearing a particular color or even PRAYING will somehow get your team the win, just do that and end the problem.
But there is no way to actually end the problem, because there is no problem.
It's like how when Flat Earthers were actually allowed to go travel the seas without Coast Guard interference to go look for the "ice wall" that's keeping us trapped, allegedly, and didn't find it.
BECAUSE IT DOESN'T EXISSSTUH.
There just comes to be a point where people need to realize they're delusional and gullible and that it's okay to just...think like a normal person.
And if i'm wrong and it is an inside job and it's all a paid off thing, cool.
Hopefully that means less Trump for us all!
~~Taylor Swift Haters are Gay~~
I know that sounds derogatory but i actually mean it seriously.
Hear me out.
So because Taylor Swift is dating Travis Kelce, there has been even more attention than ever on the Chiefs.
And of course, because she is supporting her partner and his brother, she is there for those games.
She is talked about a lot, they pan to her and Jason's wife up there in the (imma just call it a booth, idk if it has a different name) several times per game and just let us see some glimpses of the fam.
And i gotta admit, yeah it gets a little boring to hear her name aaalll thheee fuucckkiinnnggg tiiiimmmeee, but doesn't it also get boring to hear all the players's names all the time?
It does for me.
I hear the same names listed 30559212045420e0594 times a day, every day, forever.
But is it the end of the world?
No.
The thing of it is, there are legions of people whose entire sexless loveless days are spent trolling about hating Swift and bitching about the fact that she is occasionally panned to, and LOADS of men are tired of seeing and hearing about her.
To these exceptionally inbred trogs, it is "game-ruining" for Taylor Swift to be shown for a total of several minutes out of every Chiefs game.
And in case you're even newer than me, football games last for fucking ever.
Now, these same men who piss and moan about Taylor's existence around the Cheifs is fascinating, because these specimens claim to be heterosexual men, many of whom are married and have families.
So as i am led to understand, in simple terms...
Grown straight men who claim to love beautiful women, are angry about seeing a few minutes of footage of a very beautiful woman, sprawled out through multiple hours of footage of huge buff men with big jiggling muscles, their dicks falling out of their cups, and playing ass tag...
Is game-ruining for you...?
That seems kinda gay, bro, just sayin'.
I'll never understand how toxic masculinity men will be all fetishist about women, but when it's time to just enjoy themselves they only want to be surrounded by other testosterone-infused roids ape cock-and-balls-men and do "man" things and will absolutely scream and cry and punch walls if someone with a vagina is within ten feet of their precious cis-men-only circus.
Make it makes sense.
Like sure everyone needs a break, and gender-oriented hangouts are okay i guess, but people get too weird about it (women do it too, i know shut up. men are worse and you know it).
Oh unless of course, the woman is serving him food, and once that's done she better get back to cooking and cleaning.
And yes, i do like the image i featured where it's pointed out that daughters and just kids in general are seeing their fathers hate to see a successful woman anywhere near a space that is very different from the work she does.
This all goes back to my recent bitching about absolutism and gatekeeping, how no one is allowed to just be invested in many different things or even just a few different things.
It's always all or nothing and it's insufferable.
You're telling your daughters that no one likes a successful woman and that her presence is a scourge, and teaching your sons it's okay to treat women and others like that.
Indeed, do better.
~~In Conclusion~~
People have and will always be disappointing.
But i wanna end this on a positive note.
I may not know much about football or understand it, but thanks to my mom i'm becoming curious.
She is sharing something she actually cares about with me and in a rare twist, using a love language i am familiar with; infodumping.
She's fixated, it's making her happy and i want to support that.
And i know worse things can happen to a child than being outcast by their father from a chance to get closer to him, but that was damaging for me growing up and deeply cemented the feeling that i don't belong anywhere.
Well i've had a change of heart this year, and have been listening to content and watching and reading about things i don't usually care about -- just for the sake of being up to speed and knowing something.
I was super sheltered growing up and only i have the power to get me out now, so yeah imma start paying a little more attention to this sport and trying to absorb some information.
This ties back to a post Above Deck, which imma go ahead and plug here because it's genuinely wholesome and i wanna emphasize how dedicated i am to it:
www.deviantart.com/fae-captain…
It's never too late to understand something new.
So if i got something wrong or you deem me unworthy of talking about this subject because i'm a woman or because i don't know enough, well that's your mental folly.
If you've got something to say to my ass, imma challenge you right now to be civil and informative and engage in a normal conversation with me rather than going full mongoloid.
---
ANYHWOOAY i cannot be bothered to say much more today, this was too much.
My shoulders hurt and i am hungry.
LIVE, LOVE, LOOT!
