what’s the meaning of tptb?
i see you using it a lot, i think i saw someone say it stood for ‘the powers to be’
if it’s like management or something is that a reference to something someone had said or called them?
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/tptb
Yep, It's actually a very commonly used term meaning "the powers that be!"
It's way better than using mgmt/label/[insert other authority figure here] because the reality is that there are SO MANY PEOPLE behind the scenes that we really don't know if it's management, label, or some combination of both that are causing the issue. Using tptb is a more general term that refers to whoever it was that made the decision(s) in question, without incorrectly placing blame somewhere.
I grieve in stereo The stereo sounds strange I know that if you hide It doesn't go away If you get out of bed And find me standing all alone Open-eyed Burn the page My little dark age

You and Craig have been friends for a long time your parents went to school together and they both went though there pregnancy’s together your dad passed when you were young you were only 4 so you don’t really remember him much then a few years later Craig’s mom passed away it was hard on both of you cause she was like a second mom but it was harder on him cause she was his real mom.
But after two years he was still trying to get over it and when it was Sunday you and your mom and Craig and his dad would go to church and while we stood up from our seats we hear the door open and shut, Craig and I turn to see Mr. Harrigan while he sits down and Craig gets called up to do the reading, once he done the reading he sit back down and turning to Mr. Harrigan who nods his head at him. After church mom and I go home and later that evening mom gets a call and says it’s for me and it’s Craig saying that Mr. Harrigan hired him to read to him and after a while Craig would invite me to the readings but I would always help Edna clean around the house we have been going to Mr. Harrigan’s house three times a week for five years and got payed five dollar an hour and got red devil scratches on special occasions.
But that was a few years ago things have changed Craig and I are still friends but we both changed we both went though puberty he got taller and his voice got a little deeper but he still had a baby face which I found cute, while he went though that I got boobs and an ass and got a little taller and grew my hair out
(Y/n POV)
Now we are both in high school there wasn’t a school in Harlow so we had to be bused in to Gates Falls. Billy Ueberroth's older brother, Mike, or U-Boat, as everybody called him had already been in the deep end, came out unscathed, and had agreed to show us the ropes if we paid him, Craig and I turn our heads and see U-boat laughing hysterically at a comic he was reading. I lean my head on his shoulder let out a sigh “Today’s going to be a long day” “Yep” he replied
Once the bus stop and we got off the bus U-boat tapped our shoulders and we each give him five dollars, “Sweet alright boys and girls, time to show you where the bodies are buried.” U-boat spoke and we start to walk forward, we take about five steps before we’re stopped “And stop, give me your eyes and ears dangerously lies ahead, now on your left…” we all stare to the left “Don’t stare. Don’t venture over there unless you’re looking for a black eye, lung cancer, or a tattoo” U-boat spoke to all of us, Craig and I look back to our left and see this tall kid with long black hair giving us a death glare and Craig and I look back at U-boat and we walk into the school.
“You see, hazing is forbidden at Gates Falls High, but that doesn't mean it don't happen. You're gonna have to steel yourself acquire a cold eye and a mean look. Don’t take any shit or your years here will be hell It's just like prison do your time under the radar.” U-boat continued talking and you could see a kid at the vending machine struggling to get his drink out so U-boat slammed his hand at the top and you could hear the drink fall and you could hear the kid say thanks,
“And don't think all this doesn't apply to you, Margie, Y/n those senior girls are mean as pythons they don't strike at once but enjoy squeezing the life out of you over the course of the year.” U-boat said to us and Margie and I stop walking for a moment but we catch up with them and I walk beside Craig and we get to the cafeteria “Last stop of the tour the cafeteria this is where the popular kids hang out.”
“They all have smartphones” Craig said “Motorola Razer, Samsung table over there in the corner and that is the Apple table.” “What…iPhones just came out how did they get them?” Craig asked “Because they're the popular kids.” U-boat replied “We gotta get phones” Billy said and the bell rings and Craig and I get to math.
(Craigs POV)
When you grow up in a small town and are suddenly exposed to an alien world, your universe expands. You see strange and different faces. Some of them are friendly. but others, sometimes others seem drawn to you in a dark way, to not like you and for no reason.
I turn back to look at y/n and she looks up and smiles at me and I look back at the bored and my checks flushed, class was over and y/n and I walk down the hallway to towards the stairs we were stop by that tall kid earlier “Hey! How you doing? I saw you earlier, Short Bus.” He has a brown paper bag in his hands and looks at y/n
“Take it, look inside” I take the bag from her and look inside “Shoe polish?” I asked “Every freshman shines and you two are gonna shine mine on the shitter.” He said to the both of us “We have to get to class.” I said to him so y/n and I could leave but he didn’t let us.
”No, not until you shine my boots.” I look to my left and see a teacher coming up the stairs and I look back at him “No” “No is a mistake you don’t wanna make” he said and looks at y/n “Shine my boots, or I feed this can of polish to you.” But before he could do anything we hear another voice “Boys…and girl, is there a problem here?” She asked us
“No, no problem” I said and hand the bag back to him, “What's in the bag? It wouldn't happen to be a hazing kit, would it?” “No” the black haired kid said while laughing “We gotta get to class” before we could move she stops us “Wait what’s your name?” She asked me “Um Craig” I said to the teacher and she looked at y/n “What’s yours?” “It’s y/n ma’am” “Okay what’s in the bag, Craig?” She asked me
“Umm…it’s…half a sandwich he was asking us if we wanted it” I said to her and looked back at y/n “Hmm. Okay” the teacher said and walked away and y/n and I make our way down the stairs “You’re gonna regret this” he said to y/n and I “I just saved your ass you should be saying thank you.” I said to him “Fuck your thanks new boy”
“You don’t know us what did we do to you?” Y/n asked him being confused “You tried to show me up” he yelled at us “You just should’ve shined, short bus you should’ve shined” he said and walked away, y/n and I continue walking down the stairs “Kid had some serious issues” y/n with a laugh.
(Y/n POV)
The rest of the day was a blur and went by fast and we get to Craig’s house I don’t really need to call my mom cause she know that if I’m not at school or Mr. Harrigan’s house then I’m at Craig’s.
Once we’re in the door we take off our coats and slide off our jackets and walk towards the stairs “Hey there he is, oh hey y/n good to see you, first day of high school how was it?” Craig’s dad asked us “Good” Craig replied
“That’s it? Just good?” Craig laughs lightly “Okay it was great” he said sarcastically “You have, uh, all the right supplies?” “Yeah” Craig said softly “What about your teachers? You like ‘em?” His dad asked like the good dad he is “Good dad it’s all good, Okay?” Craig said getting a little stressed with the conversation “Yeah, okay well if you need anything, just uh…ask that going for you too Y/n”
“Alright thank you” “Hey y/n you can go upstairs I’ll be there in a second” Craig said while looking at me “alrighty” and when I’m going upstairs I could hear there conversation “Dad can I get a cell phone?” “What do you need a cell phone for?” “For instance, I need help or I need to call 911.” “We live in a town so small you can shout and I’ll show up.” “Okay” is all Craig said and went upstairs.
