#I’m going insane out here

I’ll never forget when I was arguing with a person in favor of total prison abolition and I asked them “what about violent offenders?” And they said “Well, in a world where prisons have been abolished, we’ll have leveled the playing field and everyone will have their basic needs met, and crime won’t be as much of an issue.” And then I was like “okay. But…no. Because rich people also rape and murder, so it isn’t just a poor person thing. So what will we do about that?” And I don’t think they answered me after that. I’m ashamed to say I continued to think that the problem was that I simply didn’t understand prison abolitionists enough and that their point was right in front of me, and it would click once I finally let myself understand it. It took me a long time to realize that if something is going to make sense, it needs to make sense. If you want to turn theory into Praxis (I’m using that word right don’t correct me I’ll vomit) everyone needs to be on board, which mean it all needs to click and it needs to click fast and fucking clear. You need to turn a complex idea into something both digestible and flexible enough to be expanded upon. Every time I ask a prison abolitionist what they actually intend to do about violent crime, I get directed to a summer reading list and a BreadTuber. It’s like a sleight-of-hand trick. Where’s the answer to my question. There it is. No wait, there it is. It’s under this cup. No it isn’t. “There’s theory that can explain this better than I can.” As if most theory isn’t just a collection of essays meant to be absorbed and discussed by academics, not the average skeptic. “Read this book.” And the book won’t even answer the question. The book tells you to go ask someone else. “Oh, watch this so-and-so, she totally explains it better than me.” Why can’t you explain it at all? Why did you even bring it up if you were going to point me to someone else to give me the basics that you should probably already know? Maybe I’m just one of those crazy people who thinks that some people need to be kept away from the public for everyone’s good. Maybe that just makes me insane. Maybe not believing that pervasive systemic misogyny could be solved with a UBI and a prayer circle makes me a bad guy. But it’s not like women’s safety is a priority anyway. It’s not like there is an objective claim to be made that re-releasing violent offenders or simply not locking them up is deadly.

I love when JP fics are like

Here’s Prowl. He’s an inforcer. Or tactician. Or detective. Maybe you want something exotic? He’s a mer. Or demon. Or prince. Whatever.

…

And then there’s Jazz. Or wait. It it him? Maybe not. Look how he performs identity acrobatics on you and everyone. It was Jazz over there, but now this one is also Jazz. Meister is Jazz but Jazz isn’t Meister. Or is he? Ricochet is Jazz’s brother? HAHA get trolled, they are the same person. Bet you feel stupid now? Good. Because Ricochet IS actually Jazz’s brother, they aren’t the same person. But there is only one of them now? Which one? Haha GOOD LUCK. Which one of them was Meister? Which one are you looking at right now? Does Jazz even exist? Strap to your fucking seat we are shipping Prowl with the concept of Jazz

some dead boy detectives headcanons:

charles loves it when edwin reads out loud to him, he’s totally content to sit around and have edwin read stories to him for hours at a time

edwin being nervous about very simple pda when they start dating; little things like walking together and holding hands, charles would have to coax him into by rubbing the back of his hand

charles pretends to sleep, just throws himself down on the couch while edwin is reading and closes his eyes even if he physically can’t sleep, edwin never complains

edwin writes down little questions to ask charles after they finish cases, modern things like what microwaves do and what online shopping is and charles is always happy to answer even if they can get a little weird

they take walks together, often at night when they’re not working cases. mainly because charles likes watching the living and how London comes to life at night but also because edwin's love language is time spent together while charles is physical touch

hob absolutely rents their office out for them, has probably run into them too many times in the past 30 years so keeps the place up to date. he also sends cases their way. they're two ghost kids he wants to keep safe and they remind him of himself and dream

edwin would rather hear about charles life when he was alive than tell charles about his own. he likes listening to charles talk about what he enjoyed when he was alive

their first kiss would be in the middle of some petty argument in a graveyard while they're on a case and crystal and niko are late so edwin is complaining about the living again and charles kisses him to shut him up under the moonlight

the real reason Steve brings a date to a high school basketball game for a high school he doesn’t even go to anymore is because the one time Nancy went with him the team won and his sports superstitions kicked in and he can’t just risk Lucas losing because of him not having a date, so he will take on the burden and ridicule of being the guy who graduated and drags new dates to games all in the name of not upsetting the delicate intricacies of rituals in sports

Something that's haunting my brain is the thought that--assuming MePhone and 3GS's emotional processors work close enough to human brains for this to work the same way--it will probably take them YEARS to even BEGIN to fully process their trauma.

I'm not sure if this is true of everyone, but I know that generally, your brain doesn't start fully processing things like trauma or grief until it feels safe to do so. (It's why you might be fine at a funeral, but then when you step into your bedroom you suddenly burst into tears. Or in terms of trauma, it's why abuse survivors have a risk of going BACK to their abusers because once they get away from them and get someplace safe, they suddenly start feeling WORSE, because their brain is finally unpacking everything.)

MePhone and 3GS? Yeah they got away from Cobs. But now they're left in a weird, uncertain position. MePhone wants to give the contestants space so he probably won't hang around the island. But where do they go from there? Meeple HQ? Maybe at first, but they're sure not going to feel SAFE there.

They'll probably wind up traveling someplace else they've never been before. Maybe they'll travel to several places before they find a more permanent home, or maybe they'll just become comfortable with a life of travel. Either way, it's probably going to be a while before they have a home, or at least a place they truly feel safe.

And THEN it hits them. Their processors have decided it's safe to do so, and begin to unpack their trauma, and it SUCKS. Just when they felt they were doing better, they suddenly feel worse than they have in YEARS. Worse than when Cobs shut 3GS in the closet. Worse than when MePhone lost everything and Cobs went all-out physically attacking him. (MePhone especially is going to have it rough because he had NO TIME to fully take in how bad everything was as it was happening. 3GS ironically might fare slightly better because he at least had time to think through things in that closet, awful as that was.) Hopefully at this point they'll have built up a support network of some sort so they can have SOMEONE to help them, but man, they're in for a rough time.

But that's how it goes. Things get worse before they get better, and hopefully things really will start getting better for these two.

literally when has another ship given as much as bakudeku has. when has another ship encompassed so many tropes all at once while also having the relationship develop the way it has???? sometimes i’m just like dumbfounding by the depth that exists between them like they’re not just childhood friends, they’re not just rivals to lovers they’re not just starcrossed they’re not just punk x nerd or jock x jock or nerd x nerd or whatever the fuck they’ve gone from best friends to broken to fixed to i would die for you x i would kill for you like????? the nicknames???? the fact that katsuki has never told deku to stop calling him kacchan even when their relationship was at their lowest???? the fact that he was carrying his all might card with him the whole time???????????? the fact that izuku is so defensive he unlocked new powers multiple times because of kacchan and katsuki is so defensive he was willing to die TWICE for izuku?????? even the smaller things, all might rooting for them, aizawa saying his whole thing about how the two of them push their entire class to go above and beyond,, house arrest boys???? ohhh my goddddd like i know we all know but i can’t stop thinking about all of this all the time 😩😩😩

sometimes it’s crazy to stomach that simon DID THAT. he got THE crown prince of sweden begging screaming n crying over him just to love him back.

“Are you angry with me?”

“I don’t want you to be angry with me”

“I don’t wanna lose you”

“you r the only one that i feel i can talk to”

“what can i do? please simon”

“august is next in line, i can be free from these n be with you”

Simon wtf man?! what type of black magic did u cast on wilhelm dudeeeeee he even threatened the royal court bc YOU WENT ON A DATE WITH A LOSER THAT WAS NOT HIM (wille here is a loser but a better loser, he is simon’s loser but he would never want ever to lose simon so he tried to be a keeper but oftentimes failed bc he is a loser… skwhksjwjshsjs ignore this) i mean… THE prince of sweden was willingly with all his body and heart gave up the throne for you… like… girl you got some serious game right there!!!

AND AFTER SIMON SAID

“i wanna be with you”

“i love you”

THE prince of sweden literally CAME OUT TO THE WORLD, istg at that time he just didn’t care abt anything anymore, he alr got what he needed which is simon n then just like that

“i was me in the video, it was me and simon. it was a moment that i don’t wnna share with the public, i was scared so i lied”
