I love how spike talks about drusilla in later seasons, he's still so fond of her...I feel like on buffy (and TV generally) people never speak about their ex's again or it turns into this protracted drama where noone is allowed to get over anyone, but spikes just like ah drusilla! What a woman. Out of her mind, you know. Loved that girl. Anyway, where's buffy

Nebraska Stephen comes out and Tony is all surprised because he's only ever seen posh New York Stephen

“There’s a decent steakhouse,” Tony said, perusing the list of different restaurant menus. “It’s been a while since I’ve had a good steak.”

“Absolutely not,” Stephen said immediately, note of almost derision in his voice.

Tony looked up, a little surprised. “You have a sudden aversion to meat?” he asked. Stephen really liked Tony’s chicken alfredo, but maybe it was a red meat thing? But no, Stephen participated in Tony’s burger obsession with mild amusement.

Stephen’s nose wrinkled. “I have an aversion to paying exorbitant fees for a product or service that I can do better myself. It’s the same reason you refuse to go to anywhere but the best Italian places, because anything less than perfection and you can do better yourself. Unfortunately for the steakhouses of New York, even their best are no match for my skill with steak.”

Tony parsed through that. “I call bullshit,” Tony said. “You told me you survived off microwave dinners and takeout in med school. And I’ve seen your eating habits now. Sure, you eat healthy, but you’re not taking the time out to learn how to grill steaks.”

Stephens scoffed. “Tony, I could grill the perfect steak by the time I was thirteen. I only ever got better.”

That was a tougher one to disprove. People did learn how to cook growing up, but Tony just couldn’t buy it. “Seriously?” he asked. “You were grilling steaks at thirteen?”

Stephen gave him a condescending look. “Tony, I’m from Nebraska.” He said the words as though it was the only explanation he needed. “Omaha is considered the steak capital of the United States. Add on to that, flank steak used to be sold at absolute bargain prices.” He gave a sniff of absolute superiority. “I could grill a steak that would have you salivating and begging for more, Tony.”

Well then. Tony slid the menus to the side. “Fine. We’ll do pizza tonight… but next week, you’re grilling me this ‘perfect’ steak and we’ll see if you’re as good as you claim to be.”

Stephen leaned in, smirking. “Oh, Tony, I really think you would learn to stop challenging me in things like this. I am always just as good as I think I am.”

Yeah, Tony had noticed. Why did Stephen think Tony kept doing it?

Because honestly? It always worked out amazingly well for Tony.

Mutual pining is great, but you know what's even better? Mutual pining where they're both fully aware the feelings are requited, they just can't do anything about it for other reasons. Or maybe they technically could but they've had to choose not to, because of The Circumstances.

Sheng Shaoyou and Gao Tu looking so confused and troubled after getting railed so damn hard by their boyfriends the night before—

(I'm also kinda sad a little right now that they didn't get the cuddly, cozy, happy morning after they so deserve after their first time like this!!!! They also deserved to be known by their partners properly, and also know them — their true selves — in return before this ;-;)

The myth that Tony despises old technology

And everything retro in general. This myth is popular, but are we talking about the same person?

Because MCU Tony:

Has a collection of old cars, including 1932 Ford Flathead Roadster.

Has a retro racing car for the Monaco Grand Prix Historique.

Knows how to handle a tractor from 1950s.

Uses a vinyl record player instead of just telling his AI to play a digital file.

Also has a jukebox in his lab.

Keeps a projector for old videotapes (probably in case his father left an important message from the 1970s).

Conclusion: canon Tony not only does not despise old technologies, but sometimes prefers them to new ones. He is a nostalgic guy who will be delighted if he gets his hands on something vintage and interesting.

“average Doctor is really really cool” factoid actually just statistical error. average Doctor is very uncool. The ninth doctor who wore a leather jacket 24/7 and told a dalek to kill himself is an outlier and should not have been counted
