That moment when you discover an amazing band only to find out they’re severely underrated.

…and yes, I’m blaming and thanking Drew for it.

Quote by Mendalla
Oo, and I see there's a dark mode in beta (ie. being tested). Is that new or did I just miss it before?

I’ve been waiting for dark mode. So much nicer on my eyes.

Woke up really, really wanting to kiss Drew. I mean, yeah, I’ve woken up that way a lot over the past sixteen years but…well..not quite like this.

I - I might need a moment. Or several.

Quote by Mendalla

We gather here for new members, Drew looking his finest, misunderstood Disney villains, and more.

…well, if we want to get technical, he looks with his eyes.

I’m honestly so whipped for him it’s not even funny.

Drew was wearing his blue glasses and a pair of skinny jeans on Friday and…well…needless to say, I might need a moment (or several) cause that’s a lethal combination I’m absolutely here for.

Giggles…. Cruella was just misunderstood.

That’s what they all say.

It’s a beautiful sunny frosty day here in Ireland. Just been for a walk with the dogs and I’d love a cup of coffee to warm me up. I recognise a few faces from other places but hi, I’m Susie. New to here and hoping to publish a story or two soon

Welcome. I’m Elyse.

I’m hoping you’re much nicer than your evil relative. ;)

I’d be writing myself but every time I think I’ve fixed my story, I run into another roadblock and/or end up hating everything I wrote.

I’d say this isn’t me thinking about how Drew’s last name is literally just ‘care’ with a Y on the end, but that would be as untrue as if I said it didn’t give me butterflies.

I - I might need a moment. Or several.

People elsewhere keep describing Drew as a teddy bear and it just makes me want to snuggle with him even more than I already do (and that’s really saying something).

Most people hate Mondays, but I love them cause it means the start of five new chances to see Drew after two long days without.

I’m a mess. Drew giggles more than he laughs and it’s one of the most adorable things ever.

…so I’m definitely a chubby chaser cause I find Drew to be at his most handsome with a bit of meat on his bones (probably cause the extra padding would make for good snuggles).

I definitely DID buy a gold membership. I have the badge! Lol

So did I. Now I don’t have it anymore (at least on the red site) and I can’t make new topics.

Quote by Molly
Hello. There are a few behind the scene updates going on so hopefully it will be sorted across the board by tomorrow.

You are not the first person to mention the gold membership.

Oh good. I just tried to see if I could post a new topic here, and it worked, but maybe that’s cause there’s no paid memberships here.

I’ve been experiencing ‘page not found’ errors all day both here and on the red site.

I’d have reported it there, too, but I can’t create new topics unless I renew my gold membership (unless that’s also a bug?).

Sometimes I think Drew’s last name is Carey cause that’s what he does with my heart.

Aka I think I just had what’s probably the most cheesy thought I’ve had in quite awhile.

Quote by KatarinaTechgoddess
Well hell! I had a lovely response all typed and hit the wrong button and it all disappeared! I should know better than to try to post from my phone. The gist of it was that people who truly care about you, Elyse, would never laugh at y’all. Feelings are feelings and can always express them among friends.

Thanks. I really needed to hear that.

Anyway, Drew has a beard right now (has done for quite awhile actually) and I have a love/hate relationship with it. On one hand, it gives him hot college professor vibes, but on the other I don’t think it would make kissing him too comfy.

Oh god. I hesitate to even say this cause I really don’t want y’all to laugh at me (even though I know my taste in people can get interesting at times) but I - I was pretty much body slammed with feelings for Drew at the end of last week.

This is why I try not to hold them in but like - he’s really near and dear to my heart (and has been from his first day hosting TPIR) so yeah, I’m a bit of a mess.

No, I didn’t die, but real life did get in the way thanks to the holidays (as well as my forgetting this place exists whoops).

I’ve mostly been learning about superheroes in general but most of my retained knowledge is on Batman and Superman cause they’re my favorites. (Side note - why is Christopher Reeve so pretty? Just to press all my buttons?!)

Also, I’m finally a part of the modern world cause I got my first iPhone last month. It’s so surreal; like, I’m still pinching myself at times cause I used to think the only way I’d ever get a smart phone was if my dad lost his mind, so to speak.

Yesterday would have been Kevin Conroy’s 67th birthday. Two weeks isn’t really that long but I really hope he knows how much I love and miss him.

Most of the things on my Christmas list this year are Batman-related. Only three of them aren’t.

Tldr; I’m Batman trash and I’m absolutely here for it.

Here’s hoping my new poem gets approved.

EDIT: https://www.storiesspace.com/stories/poetry/savior-2 <———————- here it is.

Didn’t sleep very well last night so I’ve been alternating between exhaustion and laughing at everything.

…and in other more pleasant news, I got a Batman plush recently.

Hey Elyse! I just noticed a story in The Guardian – British newspaper – about Alan Rickman. I didn't know if you'd be interested, but thought I'd point it out anyway:

https://www.theguardian.com/film/2022/sep/24/alan-rickmans-secret-showbiz-diaries-harry-potter

He was a versatile actor, and an intriguing person.

He really was. Also, I've known about his diaries being published for awhile, but thank you regardless.

Quote by Mendalla
Was it deliberate due to the season number or a happy coincidence?

Bit of both, I think, cause that game is mostly luck. Usually it's played for $10,000.

A concept: Superbat and Man Man.

Season 51 of The Price is Right is absolute chaos and I'm here for it.

On Monday, someone won $51,000. Then on Tuesday somebody messed up on a game in a way that hadn't been seen since 1990. Wednesday ended in a double overbid. And yesterday, two of the hardest games were won.

Quote by Mendalla
Holy wow. 51 seasons? I remember watching it occasionally as a kid. Does this ... does this mean I'm ... old? 😕

Not unless you're 80+.

...so today started season 51 of The Price is Right and I was so glad to see Drew it's not funny.

Why is he so adorable? Just to drive me nuts?

Drew was in my dreams on Friday night and this isn't me still thinking about it.

Except it totally is and I am.
