Happy 4/20

[candyfsh]

. ۫ ꣑ৎ . dating hcs <3

by candyfsh

including; dallas winston, melvin moody, richie white (those are my favs)

——————————————————————————

dallas winston ౨ৎ

𖦹 ik everybody says that dally would be suuuper toxic and a rlly bad boyfriend,, but hear me out. he would literally hate everyone but you.

𖦹 he buys you things and steals you things, about 50/50

𖦹 he isn't one for cuddling or anything but he'll definitely play with your hair and hold your head gently if you're snuggled beside him or on his chest💔

𖦹 he isn't huge on pda,, but he always keeps an arm around you or kisses your face and head and lips constantly

𖦹 he also uses extra pda at parties. just letting everyone know you're dating him 😊😊

𖦹 he will NOT ever let you put makeup on him, but he does let you put chapstick on for him. he likes how gentle you are even if it's just chapstick 😓

𖦹 always brags about you

𖦹 "yeah man that's cool but my gf is soooo hot 😝"

𖦹 he likes to go over to your house whenever he can because you make him feel safe

𖦹 he won't admit that though. never.

𖦹 but it's also lowk obvious?? bc he's always hanging around you and making sure you're close to him

𖦹 im being so fr he thought he wouldn't trust or love anyone again after sylvia then BOOM he met you and he's like OMG.

melvin moody ౨ৎ

𖦹 he loves you and makes it known omg

𖦹 like ofc he cares about his reputation?? he js loves you sooooo much and whenever he sees you he's like woah that's my gf!!!

𖦹 when you're sitting next to each other literally anywhere, he has to be touching you just to like confirm you're there or something???

𖦹 he's holding your hand, his arm is around your shoulder, his hand is in your lap, your head is on his shoulder, he's playing with your hair, his arm is around your waist, whateves!!! he just loves touching you

𖦹 he's still a tough guy ofc,,, but in school, it's kinda like lowkey slowed down

𖦹 but he'll still punch someone if they made you uncomfortable whatsoever

𖦹 i personally think moody would be big on cuddling 😙

𖦹 he loves to spoon you omg!!!

𖦹 moody feels like he can truly be himself around you (including letting his hair not be greased up. you love to see his hair ungreased)

𖦹 he gets you gifts sometimes with the money he's gotten from kids but he refuses to EVER tell you where he got the money

𖦹 PET NAMES PET NAMES PET NAMES!!! ���💗💗

𖦹 "baby" "sweetie" "hottie" "cutie" everything.

𖦹 you and moody are literally so in love and so adorable and all his friends tease him about being so whipped but he's all like "damn right i am"

richie white ౨ৎ

𖦹 this little baby is so cute and loves you sm

𖦹 my personal hc is that richie has never had a gf,, he just flirts with every girl he sees

𖦹 so you're basically each other's first everything in a relationship. it's really sweet💔.

𖦹 he alwaayyyss brags to you about a new crime he committed. especially the time he broke into a bike shop.

𖦹 whenever some girl flirts with him in the rec center he's all like "yeah yeahh i got a beautiful girl i ain't interested"

𖦹 AND YES HE REFERS TO YOU AS HIS BEAUTIFUL GIRL ALWAYS 😖😖

𖦹 "ysee my beautiful girl over there??" "she's my beautiful girl" "i got the most beautiful girl ever"

𖦹 bc this is his first relationship that's more than just kissing and flirting, he wants to prove himself to you that he's more than a juvenile delinquent

𖦹 (but he'll never stop being one)

𖦹 he doesn't know what to do for dates so he takes you to the rec or a walk around town or his lil spot with carl

𖦹 speaking of carl, he's sooooo sick of hearing about you

𖦹 y/n this y/n that,,, my man richie just loves you!!!

𖦹 btw he calls you the dumbest pet names in public to tease you, like sugarplum and honeybee

𖦹 he will never get over the fact that YOU chose HIM of all people. like he's confident in himself,, he's just like "omg she's so perfect why is she with me"

𖦹 that's why he makes sure to never take you for granted

𖦹 if richie has his hands anywhere on you, his hand is probably in your back pocket. not like in a perverted way or anything,, he just likes it there 😙😙

𖦹 his arms are almost always around your shoulders too

𖦹 he's very touchy

𖦹 you + richie = forever

SPOILER-IFIC Reaction to "Bendy and the Dark Revival"

My voice is shot. I am sick, and I didn't record myself reacting to this. I did write my reactions down though. And now you're about to get 'm. Apologies for the cursing.

Oh hey, Joey's apartment! ... It looks like shit.

Ohohohoh! This takes place June 18, 1973! (I appreciate not waiting that long but man it would've been cool released on this date.)

Aw, Audrey's cute.

The FUCK is that poster?? ... I want one.

Huh. Hi Nathan. You are not what I expected.

FUCKIN'... YOU. Again.

....So no violin then? -smash-

And he bailed... You're showing up again, aren't you? (He did not.)

.....I don't like this.

The fuck is this door?

Wait, we know him??

OHHHH I hate you. I hate you a lot.

MMmmmm I don't trust like that.

Oh it the bastard!

I recognize this and am concerned.

-scowl- ... You fucking kidding?

OMG, it's their version of Nine Old Men.

Oh shit! I mean I expected it but Shit.

Drowning by Ink seems painful. (-looks at AU fics-)

Wait, I fell out of the pipe?

"Welcome Home", huh?

So... Alan Grey is CEO of GENT. Good to know.

Awwww an Alice Angel music box!

Okay, C to Crou-WHAT??

TORE HIS BODY IN-??

Wait, was I in the pipe those 200+ days?

Oh I don't trust this.

Cheap. ...But I still jumped.

Well, well, well....

Oh good, he's dead.

So pretty... And familiar....

OH FUCK THAT.

Oh! Allison! Hey!

TOM! 8D

Oh I look cool.

OH NO NOT SHAWN. (I did not find his tape but the message spooked me.)

451

Oh neat! Scary!

... How was that your first idea? Just... punch the RE8 tube??

I knew it was coming, I FUCKING KNEW IT.

.... ,'B( Really, Joey?

AGAIN with you!

Please don't resurrect Joey.

Oh I hate it when you fuckers talk.

HAH. Found theMeatly in the potatoes.

I swear this game scares me at random.

I do love the memes.

OMG it squeaks!

....The fuck was that?

Ooooooooo I can banish! ... Why does my image look creepy?

OH FCUK. The last game's saves are out of order! Henry no!

Oh man, I love these dioramas. They're so cheesy, but I like them.

I TAKE IT BACK. I'M SORRY, CARL!

THE BABY.

NOOOOO

I HURT THE BABY

....The fuck?

OH FUCK YOU TALK?!

NOOOOOOPE

FUCKING NOPE

UH UH

THAT'S A DEMON

WHY AM I FOlloWInG IT?!

That "Originality" Note... Either that's leading to something or someone is being REAL tongue-in-cheek here.

I got lost. Shit.

Not gonna lie, these puzzles are neat!

Say hello to who? the Fourth?

Ghost girl??

FUCK! HEY lady your-FUCK! ... Is she even there an-OF COURSE NOT.

The heck was that speedy shit??

OF. COURSE.

Porter you are a treasure.

-snerk-

Bobby? Adorable.

This is BS and I love it.

Okay, I pull out of the ink pits.... Coolcoolcoool...

HI FUCK OFF

Yes, I know the irony in dying multiple times in the rest area. (Seriously I died no less than 20 times.)

I do NOT like the sound of this demonic BBQ!

Oh ComeON I'm trying to get out!

HEAD CRABS. Or spiders I gues--OPP they're deadly!

YOU.... FUCKING DIE.

BABY!

Baby noooo come back....

FUCKING

JOEY?!

>B(

I don't want to believe you. But it makes sense.

Wait, are you actually regretful? The fuck?

Oh hey, your noteboard!

YOU. WILL NOT. MAKE ME FEEL BAD. ABOUT JOEY. FUCKING. DREW.

"I'm not the man, I'm just the memory." ....Shit man, that's beautiful.

Baby come back!

Jack!

WHY do you have mohawks??

Well that was short-lived.

Oh the city-BABY!!

He's FREN

These names are the best. Everything's derailed but "Little Heck".

"The Beef is People!" ... Not the weirdest I've seen down here.

Not gonna lie, I was expecting Alice in the butcher shop.

FUCK. Joey yo-What??

Audrey, who's your dad??

Joey you shit.

You're not wrong.

Oh heck.

Wait

OMG Allison!

....Huh?

Wait

WAIT.

HOLD ON.

SHE's WHAT??

A proper Creation??

Joey's DAUGHTER?!

.....I'M. BETRAYED. Baby was that FUCK??

Nani the fuck?

Wilson made The Keepers?

YOU HAVE TOO MANY PIPES.

See what you did was give him multiple personalities. WHY WOULD YOU GIVE THE DEMON multiple personalities??

Oh shit, Norman?

SAMMY! Such a sad song but he looks so cool here.

Wait... NOOOOOOOOOO WAAAAY.

HENRY MY MAN! You look so good!!!

Dude you're leaking.

....Fair.

Wait, what? Your father?

Interesting....

Those are familiar.

Oh shit, it's Betty! =D

OH hell, it's long, gimme a moment.

ALICE PLZ.

Bitch, come ON. It didn't work the last time you tried this!

This looks like a Wonderland's Tea Party and you know it.

Fucking FREAK.

The Tommy gun threw me off. I KNEW it would be here and it threw me off!

I'LL BANI-oh shit!

Again?!

Allison, you are seriously too nice.

GOLLY,

CAN I get an AMEN?!

GHOST! PLEASE MOVE I'M HIDING FROM THE DEMON! FUSALIUD (Context: My screen went black-and-white and said "Hide from the demon", so I was running to a hiding spot. The ghost girl popped up just as I was hiding and gave me a heart attack.)

Looks like OmegaMart in here and I love it.

....Your OC is ridiculous looking.

Oh DAMMit dude!

Oh of course you're Nathan's son.

Oh. OH. Oh. That was... A special blend of fucked up. (Anyone who gets to Chapter 5, seriously, this is fucked up.)

Aw man, Nathan seems so chill.

I know this won't end well, but whatev-

WOAH!!!

OH THAT'S SO COOL!

FUCK I'M STUCK.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

FINALLY.

OH FUCK

YOOOOOOOOOOOO LET'S GO!

CAN'T DETHRONE THE INK DEMON, FUCKER!!

Whooo... Okay, time to run. Let's g-I GOT NO LEGS. I HAVE NO LEGS.

....Yo, you talking about me, or you?

D'8 NO!

Fuck! Joey... You going to do a good?

YOU WILL NOT MAKE ME CRY.

DAMMIT (This game did the impossible. It gave Joey a fucking heart and made me feel for him.)

....Huh. This is.... You know what? It's weird, but that last fight was a nightmare, I'll take this.

Cmon, you did him dirty! (I am torn between amused and angry.)

HENRY MY MAIN MAN.

....Oh? ....OH!

Baby!

[itsmymeaningoflife]

Wanna hear your bullshit hehe

Hehe you asked for it. I’m gonna drop bullshit from the first half of s3 here:

- They really chose a 12 yo boy over grown women to raid the house wtf

- Carl’s crush on Beth is fucking adorable

- “While the others wash their panties let’s go hunt” Daryl darling you need to scrub your ass too

- Rick might have been a bit of a control freak in this era but at least he’s putting himself on the line over the others

- Carol almost shooting Rick bit being totally unbothered by it is hilarious

- Noticed that Daryl always keeps his distance but is always following Carol

- BACK RUB SCENE. Daryl providing physical contact and low-key also surprising himself with it is so adorable. The flirting, the innuendos *chef kiss*

- Daryl and Carol have a healthier relationship than Rick and Lori at this point. And they DEFFO sleep next to each other around the fire every night they were in the road

- The prisoners were wasted tbf. I wish they kept Oscar around as part of the main group for a few seasons. He could’ve shown the audience that not all people in prison are evil.

- Daryls obsession with not sleeping in a cage is deffo routed in trauma. He probs got locked in places as a kid

- Beths unflinching optimism / naive outlook is so pure and I love her. Damn 14 year old me for hating her

- “Not for one second do I think you have malice in your heart” YES LORI IF THAT DOESNT SUM UP RICK GRIMES IDDK WHAT DOES

- Twd really said “wow maybe we need more POC in our cast” and while they had the right sentiment they probably shouldn’t have made them all prisoners either :///

- Also Daryl taking the lead with the prisoners and being the main one to talk to them / reason with them despite Rick being a police officer is great. Give me a fic where Daryl is a youth worker

- Beth putting Carl in his place when he goes off at Lori is strong woman supporting strong woman energy

- Loris death scene makes me sob. Maggie is a real trooper in this scene too.

- Omg Daryl when he finds Carols bloody scarf and think she’s dead after they see T dogs body. He’s heartbroken that he thinks he’s lost one of his only genuine friends.

- Rick finding out Lori is dead is heartbreaking but I’ve seen too many memes of that scene to not laugh.

- Rick goes insane and Daryl immediately steps up. “Nope we’re not losing another one. Not her.” Organising a run. Pulling Beth aside to tell her to watch over Carl. We really see his leadership jump out real early.

- If Maggie wasn’t in a relationship with Glenn from the get go people would’ve shipped her with both Rick and Daryl

- Daryl seeing the “sofie” hand hurts. He really thought he was going to be the one to bring Sophia back. He believed she was alive

- DARYL WITH BABY JUDITh calling her ass kicker and sweetheart… bro my heart can’t take it. Also interesting when Carl suggests names he chooses Sofia and Carol first and the camera is focused on Daryls face.

- Daryl visiting carols grave at sunset and gently placing a Cherokee rose down and tenderly touching the cross is enough to make a grown man cry. He is deffo confused with what his feelings are and why he’s so upset that she’s gone here

- Daryl telling Carl how he was allowed to play out with other neighbourhood kids when Merle was gone and they chased a fire engine on their bikes and it ended up going to his house and his mom was dead / burnt down. Heart breaking. Trauma bonding over dead moms

- Give Daryl a child 2020 (jokes in s10 HES a chaotic sigle dad of 3)

- Daryl finding Carol knife HURTS. His voice is so wobbly and he’s so angry and he keeps the knife and he sits stabbing at the floor working himslef up to put her down. THEN HE FINDS HER ALIVE AND HOLDS HER CHIN AND CARRIED HER BACK HES A HERO

- Michonne and Rick locking eyes murderouly through the fences like damn what a way to kick start a romance

- Carl was the first to help Michonne my heart. And the way Rick hauls her over his shoulder with ease BRO… then he pours water over her boobs? Not sure why but hey I don’t question true love

- Daryl is so dramatic “hey Rick, come in here” “everything alright??” “You’re gonna want to see this” *leads everyone to carol*. He couldn’t just tell them he found her alive. I love his dramatic ass

- RICK AND CAROLS FRIENDSHIP IS everything. Also I’ll forever be salty about how we never got more of carols reaction to loris death

- Daryl calling Carol a POOR THING when he explains to everyone. Sir you are tender

- Michonne calling Maggie “the pretty girl” then one breath later calls the govener “pretty boy” is massive bi wife energy

- Rick and Daryl threatening Michonne like they won’t be tripping over themselves to lay down their life for her come season 9

- I fucking hate Merle so much. But he can’t comprehend that the group will be there to save them. He just doesn’t understand how to care for other people

- Daryl and Oscar could’ve been great friends

- Rick leaving 12 year old Carl in charge of the prison A* parenting

- Milton is the token chaotic gay scientist of twd change my mind

- The governor can rot in hell for what he did to Maggie I hate him

- Daryl sees a dead dog and makes a lassie joke? I’m sorry but this man is so funny

- Maggie said “men always have been and always will be trash”

- Axel being sleazy around Beth after Beth tells him she’s 17 and Carol immediately swooping in to protect her is PEAK MOMMA BEAR ENERGY.

- Okay but their heist to get glenn and Maggie back was elite

- The conflict on Daryls face when he realises Merle is around and his deperate voice when he’s asking Rick if he can go find him hurts my HEART

- RICK TELLING DARYL “I need you. Are you with me?” And Daryls soft “yeah” voice THAT IS THE MOMENT DARYL REALISED HE WAS APPRECIATED.

- OSCAR DESERVED BETTER. RIP KING

- Carl and beths friendship is underrated.

- Gov really thinks penny is still in there huh

- Everyone referring to Carl as “the man” is hilarious but also so concerning

- I forget how on odds Rick and Michonne were at the beginning. The original enemies to lovers

[blooming-violets]

Who are some of your favorite tv/book/movie characters? And what is it about them that you love?

Oh jesus there are so many and I'm brain farting on all of them. I need to have a think...

Let's start with the obvious because he's who this tumblr is about.

My sweet baby boy Peter Parker (tasm version but all Peter Parker's are precious to me):

Why? He's angsty, he loves to self flagellate, he blames the world's problems on himself, he's an introvert (now that I think about most of my fav characters are probably angsty introverts) he turns into a giddy nervous idiot around the girl he loves, he's sassy and cocky and stubborn and a bit of an ass at times, he's also a mushy little lover boy who simps hard for his ladies, he's a mommas boy (well...aunties boy), he mourns his losses hard and doesn't know how to get over them, he destroys personal relationships in misguided attempts to protect his loved ones, he's a perfect baby and can do no wrong and I love to turn him into a serial killing monster in my fics.

My second favorite sweet baby boy Spencer Reid:

Why? He's another sad angsty introverted baby. I have a type. A gentle personality with an intense drive to protect his loved ones. Is self sacrificing. Would give up his life and safety in a second to save a stranger. He's a literal genius with an eidetic memory. Much like Peter Parker he would be an absolute simp for his ladies. He just wants someone to love him for himself and not have to watch his love get shot in the head in front of his eyes and traumatize him forever. Is that too much to ask for this poor angel?? Omg him and Peter really are a lot alike. So much trauma.

My favorite vampire hunter Guillermo de la Cruz:

Why? I love that he started off being a timid pushover who's only dream was to become a vampire. Then he transforms in the most badass, gay, plus sized serial killer/vampire hunter. I'm pretty sure he's a sociopath. He's an evil bitch who looks like a sweet cherub in a grandpa cardigan. He has killed and will kill again to get what he wants. He will manipulate anyone and take control of his own life. I love him. I love that even though his morals are reprehensible, you still can't help but be on his side and root for his success in whatever nefarious scheme he has going on.

I should put this shit under a read more. I'm getting carried away and now I can't stop.

My heart and soul April Ludgate:

Why? I would die for Aubrey Plaza. April is my favorite weirdo. She's a mean, harsh, scary, sarcastic bitch on the outside but a nervous, self doubting, awkward, loyal baby on the inside. She is a queen and deserves the world. And she adopted a three legged pitbull named Champion. She gave birth in full zombie make up. She's a Halloween loving freak. Her friends become her family. She's a ride or die kind of girl. She is perfection.

Yes I fell hard on the Munson train, sue me:

Why? Why not? Look at him! He's lovely! He's an 80's outcast nerdy metal head who sells pot to his peers out of his lil lunch box. What a hero! People love to discuss his sexuality. To throw my hat into the mix, personally, I think he's pansexual. I think he would straight up fall in love with anyone who gives him an ounce of kindness and attention. He's a little dumb scaredy cat with a heart of gold and probably chain smokes himself to sleep every night. 10/10 would ride him deep into the night. He might of died young (in the dumbest way ever like the dumbass that he is) but he will always live on in the fics I create in my headspace as I go to bed each night.

okay last one

Michonne from the Walking Dead:

Why? I would let her behead me with her katana without a second thought. She's the most bad ass bitch on that show (granted I haven't actually watched the show in forever, I stopped after Carl died, but I still adore those first handful of seasons). Like most of my other idiots on this list, Michonne is a quiet introvert who is fiercely loyal to people she considers family. She doesn't say much but when she does, it's important and you should fucking listen. She's intelligent, crafty, knows how to survive, and is stronger than any man on that show. What's not to love?

[mother-of-houseplants-2]

CHERRY OMG i have so many thoughts about post s9 shameless and you have voiced so many of them so perfectly!!! s10 and 11 are the only ones i have never rewatched because they’re so boring lmao

i think i have the most thoughts about the end of s11 BUT you have reminded me of how bad s10ep01 was 😬😬😬

1) GIRL I WAS SO SAD ABOUT THE INTRO TOO!!! AHHHHH !!!

2) cherry i am devastated to report that fiona is barely mentioned after this. the kids are kinda sorta seen talking to her in this ep and then she just… disappears. until frank (FRANK!!!) brings her up occasionally. the writers fully started pretending she didn’t exist at all.

3) LMAO STOP … honestly though the blatant misogyny here bothered me so much while watching this because it’s clear that everyone expected her to do what fiona did because she’s the girl. like ??? hello ??? not the several other grown ass people in the house refusing to step up and do their part …

4) LIAM MY LOVE HE’S LITERALLY SO ADORABLE ❤️❤️❤️ he deserves the world

5) ughhhh literally wtf

6) LMAO again the writers’ misogyny is misogynying… like debbie’s a welder, she fixes up the house, her skills lie in what she can do with her hands. expecting her to be the fiona and cook for everyone is such a disgrace to her character, fiona’s character, and everyone’s intestinal health 💀💀💀

7) DUDE YEAH !!! this sucks because debbie shouldn’t HAVE to be the fiona. they all should be working together (like they always should’ve been!) to keep the house running. debs attempting to step into her shoes is so fucking annoying on multiple levels. also ? the fact that she’s attempting to be the fiona and still doesn’t recognize how hard her sister worked (raising 5 kids not just 1, being a child herself, no support) ?!?!?! the lack of respect…

8) DUDE RIGHT??? WTF HAPPENED HE WAS A BABY LIKE 2 SECONDS AGO!!! i can never find carl attractive like yes he’s objectively a handsome boy but he’s a BABY to me, same w debbie, they’ll always be the little ones!!!

9) uncle kev and auntie v omg 🥺🥺🥺 i love them sm

10) 💀💀💀

11) frank (for once) speaks the truth 💪😔

12) THIS ANNOYED THE LIVING FUCK OUT ME like what was the reason. why was this necessary. what the fuck. and after telling everyone they had to pay up to receive FOOD??? the hypocrisy…

13) lmao

14) debbie’s red dress is so pretty but yes it’s giving putting on your big sister’s clothes and cutting it up to fit your own taste to me

15) honestly girl. you’re so right for this.

entering the battlefield and starting season 10 episode one just to remind myself how bad it is cause im bored... gonna keep updating this

1) THE INTRO REPLACED HELL NAW..... debbie could never pee as iconically as fiona did. this is some next level disrespect lets not mess with tradition.

2) THE MISSED CALL FROM FIONA IM THROWING UP.

3) debbies face 😒 SHES NOT PICKING UP THE CLOTHES AND THROWING THEM DOWN THE CHUTE AS ICONICALLY AS FIONA DID. SHE COULD NEVER.

4) LIAMMMMMMM HES SO CUTIE PATOOTIE <3

5) "anything found in the upstairs hallway can now be found in the backyard!" girl shut up fiona would never do this

6) the food that debbies making for breakfast looks nasty fionas cooking never looked this raggedy

7) "listen up people. for the last time. im not fiona" damn right shes not she could never even be half of her 😭 "ive got my own kid to raise" SHE HAD FIVE.

8) CARLS BEARD? WOAH WOAH WOAH I ALWAYS FORGET HES NOT A BABY AND HES CAPABLE OF GROWING ONE

9) UNCLE KEV AND AUNTIE V <3 AND LIAM EATING BREAKFAST WITH THEM THIS IS REAL FAMILY

10) this is so boring sorry not sorry its just regurgitated dialogue and recycled concepts...plus can fiona please come back and save us from debbie

11) "fiona. fiona. fiona, fiona, fiona, fiona.." my sentiments exactly frank. POOKIE PLEASE RETURN THE SHOW IS CRUMBLING TO PIECES

12) youre telling me fiona left half of that money for the whole family like the selfless woman she is so that she could still be caring for them in some way even when she didnt live with them and debbie busted it on this little vanity dress-up room.......

Thoughts on 11x06

I had to come back to type this after the episode. I was gonna wait to post until more people are active but everyone’s safety is more important than notes. This was really hard for me to watch. It took me two hours because I kept needing a break. It’s a tough one yall. It’s heartbreaking and really brought out issues I didn’t know I was still dealing with until I reacted so badly to some stuff. Take care of yourselves and I’m here if you need to talk. I’ll have timestamps for major tws in another post coming right after this. I just gotta go back and get the end of those scenes. I only go the time they started.

Okay. So. There’s some trigger warnings that I’ve reblogged earlier. This recap WILL have thoughts about those triggers. If you think you’ll be triggered just message me or send me an ask and I’ll give you the non triggering recap. Stay safe please.

That was so hard to watch yall. I’m not gonna lie to you. My parents weren’t half as shitty as terry but growing up feeling unloved your whole life fucks you up anyway and that brought out some emotions and feelings I didn’t realize I still dealt with. I had to pause for a good while and cry.

Horrible music choice

I wanna tuck Mickey in with his favorite tv show on(911) make him his favorite food to eat in bed and not let anyone but Ian around him for a good 72 hours

According to captions Ian says “we’re in”

Frank reads his diagnosis

Carl goes to report his rape

That took me nearly two hours to watch. Yeah I usually pause to type but I had to take long breaks after the hard scenes. It was a really hard episode to watch. A lot darker than it has been. I’m not really okay right now. It was emotional but a really good episode overall.

[lockdownfest]

Lock Down Fest Masterpost PART I (20-30 March)

1917

feed me just enough that i’ll never need a cage by Cunninglinguist. (E) 7.4k,  Tom Blake/William Schofield. “Come on.” Sco stops walking, runs a hand over the faintest marking on a tree trunk. “It’s just a little farther now.” “I’m coming.” Tom huffs a sigh, yanking his shotgun strap over his shoulder so the barrel lands in his hands. They’ve been on the road for nearly a week now, an unfortunate consequence of their last shelter getting swarmed by an army of dead ones. Though skinning rabbits to eat over hastily made fires and taking turns sleeping against trees, spending the days and nights consumed with fear, and jumping each time a stick cracked were hardly desirable circumstances, it certainly wasn’t their longest or harshest stint on the run. They had endured worse, by far, and Tom had no doubt that this particular stretch of time would come to an end when Sco said it would. He knows the way, he always knows the way. Plus, Tom wouldn’t want to spend this time with anyone else in the entire world.

If The World Was Ending by RisingShadows. (not rated) 3.7k, Tom Blake/William Schofield.  When a dangerous virus begins spreading across the country William Schofield and Tom Blake quickly find themselves the last two standing of the team working in their lab.

The lighting perfectly captured the dried tear tracks down her unmoving face. Kevin disregards the emotional caption and instead checks the date. 18 March, the night he-  (The night he thought he had a hallucination.)

BOKU NO HERO ACADEMIA

Tell me it won’t always be this hard by Graendal. (T) 4.3k, Midoriya Izuku/Todoroki Shouto. He’d met Midoriya a few months ago during a field trip to the library. The kids had adored him, of course, even the ones who were usually shy about participating in new activities. Midoriya had a way of projecting a sense of all-encompassing safety and comfort with just his smile.Shouto had adored him too, maybe, even back then. A silly crush that had only grown during every subsequent field trip — which is truly absurd, considering the vast majority of their interactions at the time consisted of occasional eye contact while singing children’s songs.But now that they’ve spent hours talking almost every day for the past few weeks… calling it a silly crush might be an understatement. The idea that he’s actually been able to help Midoriya through this is inordinately pleasing.If there’s a silver lining to this at all — for him personally, at least — it’s that he’d seen Midoriya’s post requesting a virtual board game buddy. And that Midoriya is a patient enough person to teach Shouto how to play everything from scratch. He’d actually seemed excited at the opportunity.Maybe the opportunity for any sort of ongoing social interaction is worthy of excitement. These are strange times.

They didn't bring anything much. They should have. They ought to chance going home. But they can't, so they don't.

Umbrella Academy

season 2, episode 2

Here we go again!

All my reactions/live-blogging for this episode in a single post to avoid spamming.

"The Frankel Footage" interesting title...

Wait... Wait! Oh no... Oh no.... Don't tell me she's alive... Oh no...

FUCK!

Oh, so that's where the Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo song fits in. I was curious.

Wait, are they comparing Handler to Fairy Godmother??

I should cosplay this Handler outfit... Shouldn't I? Those shoes would murder me though.

Wait, Carmichael's name in the show is AJ? Why?

Rude fish.

Ahahah, AJ lives in a bong 😆

What's the 743 incident? 🤔

"I've dropped turds bigger than Herb" good to see she's still got claws.

Wow, the Commission is a really ungrateful bunch. I never expected to side with Handler on anything but here we are...

Is that a start map at the back of the typing pool?

Did Handler just get Five's old desk? Oh the irony...

Ahah, poor Dot. Every single time 😆

Body man! Ah! "what's that? Like a masseuse or something?" 😂 And Luther doesn't make it any better by replying "I take good care of Mr Ruby" 😂

Aww, Luther's existential crisis... Poor boy.

Luther, stop blaming Five... Dude, he did warn you that the results of time travel were unpredictable and he did save your life, stop being a little bitch and listen to your big brother.

Wait, did they actually serve alcohol to the 13 year old???

Ohhh, so that's what Hazel put in Five's pocket! November 22nd, 1963? Oohhh... (What's with Americans and putting the month before the day in dates? 🙄)

Ok, Vanya hoping that someone might be searching for her... Poor baby.

Ok, so Harlan is definitely bring coded as autistic. 🙏 Please make it good rep, please, please, please.

Aw, Diego turning politely so Lila can change. Cute boy.

Why do they keep getting into kissy positions? We get it, foreshadowing.

"you know the other window was open right?" Says the man that jumped through an unlocked door for the ✨ drama ✨

Hmm... I'm getting mixed feeling about Carl. I don't really want to hate him but... (I get a feeling in the end he and Sissy will patch things up and Vanya will end up giving up her girl, won't she? 😔)

Luther saw Vanya!!!!! Go after your sister, you dumbass!!!

So these Swedes are just rolling with the milk truck schtick, huh?

Police brutality. Of course. Very relevant to modern issues and very sad. Sadder that Allison could have kicked ass if she wanted and would have been justified but chose not to escalate.

WHAT THE FUCK ARE THE SWEDES DRINKING? 😨 That stuff looks like mercury but I'm guessing it's some super soldier serum or something?

"cousins on my robot mother's side" 🤣🤣🤣 I love Five's sass.

"imagine Batman, then aim lower" 🤣🤣🤣 omg, Five, I love you.

"why don't we just kill him?" You really are Handler's daughter, Lila...

But I am liking that Diego isn't completely lost yet, dumb but not morally lost.

Diego-Five banter is the best.

Damn cop won't even look at Allison. Fucker.

Ahah, poor Klaus just can't get away from the cult, can he?

"ahah, don't touch me" poor Klaus, he's sooooo uncomfortable.

Ooohh Professor Raymond!

Awww, poor Klaus... He can't handle the pressure and the expectations... History repeats itself.

I'm loving this budding Raymond-Klaus friendship... Can we PLEASE keep it that way?

"It's in the struggle that folks find out their true calling" Raymond, you have NO IDEA how right you are.

Klaus appalled at the racism 👌 me too, man, me too.

I love how Diego and Five react so chill to the screaming paranoid dude asking questions with a gun in their faces. "Such an open-ended questions" "really depends on the people" "yeah"😆

Is Lila painting Elliot's nails? 😆

"Hazel?" "Long story" "what's doomsday?" "Longer story" 😆

Dad!

Do the Swedes not talk at all?

Aww, Harlan, baby, you have my whole heart already.

Luther... Don't do it, hoe! That's your sister, I know you're scared but LOVE HER!

Luther, baby, are you having a nervous breakdown?

AAAAWWWWWWW!!!! Good boy, Luther! Good boy!

"you shouldn't be the one to apologize."

"I let you down. I did horrible things, things that I'm not proud of... When I could have just tried helping you. I thought it was my job to keep everyone safe, and I just... I just made it all worse."

"I never wanted to be the bad guy, so if you're bullshitting me, Vanya... I don't care. If you're hiding out here and don't want to be found, I understand. I just came here to tell you that I'm sorry... For my part in what happened."

I've been waiting for this apology for a year and it's so emotional, I love it. I love you, baby boy. The fandom better forgive him now, enough Luther hate.

Ahahahah, the Swedes are killing me 🤣🤣🤣

The outfits! The one cooking fish in the flower apron and underwear and fingerless gloves. The two staring, the knife contest. What weirdos.

Why is cat lady's head in the freezer?

Diego, stop making assumptions.

Did I mention I love Five's sass? Because I love Five's sass.

DS Umbrella Manufacturing Co. I still wonder what the DS stands for... And I wonder if they inherited the company.

So, you're just leaving Elliot tied up?

Aw, Lila having a breakdown... I still don't know if I trust her but I do like her.

Pinky swear. Aw. Diego, you can be a good big brother figure to Lila but you couldn't do that for your own siblings? Really, dude?

Raymond is such a good husband. Don't let this dude die, please.

Ah! That theory that Klaus would be found because of the cult members wearing his hand tattoos? WE CALLED IT!

I get a feeling Klaus is breaking into his own house...

"no talky, sleepy time now" adorable.

Ah! I KNEW IT, it IS his house. Nice place, Klaus.

I'm guessing Klaus got into the cult thing because he wanted to be loved (as he deserves) but went too far and now he can't take the pressure and the expectations anymore (and probably doesn't think he deserves it).

Oh boy, that chemistry between Vanya and Sissy... 😏

Uh oh, flashbacks.

Aw, Five is nervous to see dad. And Diego is being a decent brother. I like.

"when I was stuck out there in the apocalypse, there wasn't a day that wasn't by where I didn't hear his voice in my head" "what was he saying?" "'I told you so'." "well, if Dad's here, he's never met you before, so he can't say 'I told you so'" "I'm sure he'll find a way" - probably, it's Reginald after all.

Yeah, Diego, you and doors. You keep forgetting you have a literal teleporter with you.

DS Umbrella? More like BS.

Oooohhh the nuclear testing bunkers from the promos are actually Reginald's creation? Unexpected.

Oh, a gala! Yes, please, I want to see that.

Baby Pogo!

Ouch, that is definitely not the Pogo we know! Poor Five, that's gotta hurt.

Badass Reginald! (The music though! So condescending 😆) I'm impressed! Very secret assassin of you.

No! DIEGO! (the irony of the knife guy getting stabbed 😬)

Two eps down!

I need more!!!!

[mugsywrites]

In FotR, what happens after Daryl and Jesus get married? Does everyone live happily ever after?

They do, yes. FotR is the magic happy universe where nothing major happens after the Saviors. Quick rundown of how I pictured it, edited slightly because of canon:

Desus continue acting as lancers to Gleggie. Jesus is Maggie’s righthand Man, Daryl is Glenn’s. They don’t have kids of their own but they’re super close to the Gleggie children.

Carzekiel are already married and live happily in the Kingdom and she gets to spend most of her time growing things and helping to heal people rather than fighting and killing. They raise Henry and maybe another kid. Shiva lives to a ripe old age and dies peacefully in her sleep. Ezekiel is gutted but comforted to know she didn’t suffer.

The second Gleggie pregnancy goes smoothly, they have an adorable baby boy who everyone loves. Eventually they have another baby, a girl this time. Glenn gets to be a stay-at-home Dad because of his blindness. He doesn’t leave the Hilltop much but he gets to a point where he *can*. Maggie, Daryl, and Tara are all stupidly protective over him and he gets a ghost of that old frustration but he’s able to power through. I had some vague ideas about a sequel way back focusing on him adjusting, and maybe getting an adventure of his own. Idle plot points were “group is traveling to the ASZ, a herd comes in and he’s separated and has to keep his head long enough to be found. Eventually he runs into Magna’s group who return him safely.

Rick and Michonne have a baby, something that involves a fuckton of angst for all members of Grimes Family 2.0. Carl and Rick are freaking out because Lori died in childbirth and they can’t stand the thought of losing Michonne the same way. *She’s* freaking out because it brings up a lot of painful memories of Andre, and she and Rick already have two kids to take care of and omg. Judith is the only one excited because she’s too young to realize what could happen.

Alaska - Chapter Six

GUYS MY UNTECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED SELF FIGURED OUT HOW TO GET THE PICS AND FORMAT THE TEXTS!! TODAY IS A GREAT DAY

-about 2000 words-

The days following my close encounter with Auston were boring. Carly almost pissed herself when I told her what had happened. She keeps saying that I need to get close to him, but I can't say I feel the same way. Apparently, she and William are a thing now and that's why she left the party early. Although I was still pissed she left me, I was happy that she and William were 'together.'

Classes, on the other hand, are starting to get easier and I'm able to actually come home and not spend four hours on homework. Instead, I've been spending a lot of time with Carly, talking about hockey and a certain Maple Leaf.

It's now 5 o' clock on Friday and all I'm doing is watching Dirty Dancing on my laptop. Thrilling.

My phone dings, notifying me of a new text just as Baby finds Penny crying in the kitchen.

Group Chat: Girlies Alaska, Carly, & Steph

Steph: wyd girlies

Carl: watching cat videos, why?

absolutely nothing

Steph: great! I'm picking you both up in an hour so we can all go to the Leafs game

Carl: omg yay!

wut

why would I go

Steph: moral support?

what am I supposed to wear

Carl: you can borrow one of my Leafs shirts

hard pass

Steph: you can wear my Matthews jersey :)

harder pass

Carl: oh come on, Alaska! we know there's something going on between u two

Steph: ^yes, for the sake of everyone here, pls own up to your feelings

feelings?!? I met the guy last week and I've talked to him twice

Steph: that's exactly why you need to come tonight!

Carl: agreed! then you can say you talked to him three times :)

he's a jackass

Steph: and you're a bitch so you two should get along just fine

Carl: ^ruthless

fine I'll go but only to hang with you guys

and my confidence thanks you, Steph

Steph: anytime!

Carl: yay!!!!!!

so what am I wearing again?

Steph: Matthews jersey!!

Carl: ^^^^!!!!!!!!!

plain t-shirt it is!

_________

And a plain black shirt is exactly what I wore. However, Carly and Steph were not happy at all with my choice of wardrobe.

"I didn't think you were actually going to wear that!!" Carly says as I hop in the car. I flash her a big grin as Steph speeds toward downtown Toronto.

"Did you actually think I was going to wear something Leafs related?" I ask her.

"Good point," she says, turning to Steph.

"Do you sit with the other wives and girlfriends?" Carly asks.

"Hell no. You can't see shit in that box. I sit in the stands along the glass," she huffs, causing Carly and me to laugh. I just wondered if she usually comes to games alone. Poor girl. But hey, a hockey ticket is a hockey ticket. It would be a crime to waste it.

"Y'all ready for my throwback jams?" Carly yells, plugging the AUX cord into her phone. Steph and I groan at the same time. Carly shoots us a death glare but continues nevertheless.

"You better not play trash, Carl," I tell her with a laugh. She rolls her eyes and smiles.

"Nothing I play is trash," she says as if she's stating the obvious.

"Then explain the Nickelback," I say, Steph and I bursting out laughing. Carly flips me off before pressing shuffle on her playlist. I strain my ears, trying to figure out what song it is right off the bat. The familiar beat of Let Me Take You Out by Bryan J blasts through the speakers. I scream in delight, excited that I was hearing it after so long.

All three of us sing/scream along to the song, the lyrics coming back to me easily. The playlist continues as we drive through town. Surprisingly we don't hit traffic on our way and we make it to the ACC by 6:45.

We pile out of Steph's Lexus and follow her around to the back of the arena and through a private entrance. Thank God Steph was there, or Carly and I would have gotten lost among all the hallways and doors. She tells us that we should probably use the bathroom downstairs before the game because it isn't as crowded as the ones upstairs. I happily accept her suggestion, seeing I had to pee the whole way here.

The bathroom downstairs was, in fact, less crowded and much nicer than the regular public ones. I quickly relieve myself then rejoin Steph and Carly in front of the mirror for some much-welcomed pictures. I take a cute one of Carly and I with me hugging her from behind her. Smiling, I upload it to Instagram as we make our way to our seats.

@stephlachancee : ^couldn't have said it better myself

@marner_93 : y'all are going to miss my introduction smh

@alaskamay : @marner_93 so are u dumbass

@williamnylander : ^please don't speak to my friend like that

@43kadri : I have idiots for teammates

@morganrielly : @43kadri hey now

@alsakamay : I hope you all miss your introductions

@marner_93 : fam's all here except @austonmatthews

We reach our seats in record time, just moments before Mitch's precious introduction. The Leafs skate out, as well as the Capitals. I gladly join in on booing the Caps as they skate to their starting positions. I may not like the Leafs, but I definitely hate the Caps. No exceptions. Not even for Tom Wilson.

The first period flies by ends with the Leafs leading the game 1-0. Nothing interesting happens during the intermission, just random conversations and check-ins on social media. The second period was similar to the first: relatively boring and leaving the Leafs winning 2-0. Mitch assisted on both goals which made Steph go crazy in her seat. It was adorable to see how much she cared about Mitch.

Carly kept a close watch on William the whole game, making her feelings towards him even more obvious. Of course, she was quick to deny that anything was going on. The third period was much more exciting with Auston scoring at the beginning, followed by a Capital, bringing the score to 3-1. Nazem scored the Leafs' final goal of the game and the Caps managed to get another as well, but they were not able to come back, and the Leafs won 4-2.

"Oh my God!!! We won!! We beat the Caps!" Steph screams, pulling Carly and me into a big hug. I smile actually notice myself feeling happy the Leafs won. I try to tell myself that it's just because I hate the Caps so much, but there's something else that is making me feel this way. Honestly, I think it may be how hungry I am. Food and a lack thereof always makes me feel some way.

"Come along now, people! We're off to see Mitchy and the boys!" Steph shouts, grabbing our arms and tugging us through the crowd. She leads us to a set of stairs hidden from view and drags us down them. The staircase opens up to the area we were in before the game, filled with long hallways and too many doors. Luckily, Steph seemed to know where we were going considering her fast pace and determined expression.

We arrive in front of a set of double doors labelled 'HOME LOCKER ROOM' a minute or two later. I lean against the wall, assuming that we would be waiting for the guys to come out, but Steph has other plans. With a wild grin plastered on her face, she charges into the room shouting, "we're coming in" along the way. Carly and I hold off for a second, not knowing whether we should wait for Steph to come get us or follow her. As I predicted, Carly chooses the latter.

Carly and I push through the doors that opened into the spacious locker room we were in almost a week ago. I spot Steph hugging Mitch in one corner and a couple reporters in another corner sticking cameras in Auston and Nazem's faces. William looks up from his gear with a smile on his face and immediately makes his way over to us.

"Hey, I'm so glad you guys could come," he greets us. Carly's face lights up when he speaks, causing me to feel happy and awkward at the same time. Happy that William makes her so happy and awkward that I'm pretty much third wheeling.

"I'm glad we could make it!" Carly says, blushing.

"Yeah, great game," I compliment honestly, looking around the locker room. William smiles and thanks me.

"Are you guys coming to my place tonight?" he asks us. Carly's smile grows as my eyes widen. If this is another party, I'm out. I do not need to get drunk and be forced into going home with Auston.

"What's at your place?" Carly asks, knowing I would have asked if she hadn't. She knows I like to be prepared and know all the details.

"Steph didn't tell you?" William asks with a surprised face. We shake our heads no, causing him to groan.

"You would think with how talkative she is, she would have mentioned it to you," he says with a chuckle, "but usually after every win or good game, all of the guys and some of the WAGs go to someone's house to hang out and stuff. I volunteered to host today, so everyone's heading to my place right after this."

"Sounds great! We'll be there!" Carly exclaims. William looks at me as if to ask if I was okay with it. I nod in confirmation even though I'd love to just go home and shower. William smiles before turning back to Carly.

"Would you want to ride back with me? It's okay if you want to ride with Steph and Alaska, but I just thought-" Carly cuts him off before he can finish his statement.

"Yes! I mean, yes, I'd like that," she says awkwardly, but William doesn't seem to mind. He puts his arm around Carly then looks at me.

"We're gonna head out now, so we have a headstart on everyone. Is that okay with you?" he asks me.

"Yeah, go ahead. I'm going to grab Steph and we'll probably leave here soon, too," I tell him, scanning the room for my blonde friend.

"Perfect! We'll see you there then," he says then guides Carly out of the locker room, leaving me alone in a room full of hockey players. Talk about intimidating.

Steph was still in the corner with Mitch, chatting away with a few other guys. I head on over to them, stopping next to Steph.

"Hey, are we heading out soon?" I ask her after waving to Mitch.

"About that... I was going to head home with Mitch first to take care of a couple of things. You can take my car if you want," she explains, handing me her keys. I force myself to hold back an incoming groan based off of her response. How the hell was I supposed to find William's house?

"That's fine, but how am I going to find Will's house?" I ask, catching the attention of Mitch. He looks at me with a mischevious expression that says it all.

"Auston and I carpooled, so he needs a ride now. How about he goes with you! That way he can tell you how to get to Will's," he says. I don't stop myself from rolling my eyes at the idea. I would have been fine with any of the other Leafs, but of course, it has to be Auston.

"What am I doing?" Auston asks, inserting himself into the conversation. I look to my right to see the tall centerman standing there with a smirk.

"I was just suggesting to Alaska that you ride to Will's with her since Steph and I have to run home and so she knows where she's going," Mitch explains once again. Auston's grin enlarges, causing mine to deflate.

"Wow, Mitch! You know, that's a great idea! As a matter of fact, let's head out now so we have time to take the long way," Auston says in an annoying tone. I roll my eyes and glare at him which only makes him smile more.

"Perfect! We'll see you two in a little then, right?" Steph asks with a wicked smile. I glare at her but maintain my fake happy expression.

"Hopefully very soon," I respond, looking up at Auston. He bids the happy couple goodbye then places his hand on the small of my back, making my cheeks heat up. He begins to usher me through the locker room and through a set of doors that open up to the parking lot.

"I hope you know I'm not taking the long way," I tell him, walking over to where Steph parked. Auston follows me, staying no more than two feet away from my side.

"How will you know if it's the long way or not?" he asks. I can practically hear him smirk through his voice. I hate that he's right. Goddamnit.

"You know, it would be a lot easier if you just gave in and started liking me," Auston says, stopping in front of me, causing me to have to stop walking and look up at him. I smirk at his comment, knowing that it's true.

"Yeah, but it wouldn't be nearly as fun."

‘The Bachelor’ Recap: Hometown dates and awkward blessings

In Week 8, the families took center stage during the hometown dates, and man, were those dads skeptical.

We here at SB Nation realize that “The Bachelor” is very much sports. Therefore, each week we’ll recap all the heartbreak, drama, and excitement.

IT’S HOMETOWN WEEK! Colton and his four remaining ladies — Caelynn, Hannah, Tayshia, and Cassie — head to their respective hometowns to meet with a collection of family and friends. Colton was concerned last week after the intentions of several of the women (namely Caelynn and Cassie) were called into question by Tayshia.

Things get underway in Fredericksburg, Virginia, as Caeylnn shows Colton around. They kick things off in a horse-drawn carriage as Caelynn gives him a tour of the quaint downtown Fredericksburg area before stopping at Carl’s for ice cream.

She tells him that he’ll be meeting a ton of people, but her biological father isn’t one of them as her stepfather John raised her. They grill out in an adorable back garden before the family splits them off and starts questioning them.

Caelynn’s sister Ariana is skeptical of whole thing (WHICH IS NORMAL, I THINK), and her mother isn’t too much more excited about everything. Pops says their relationship sounds more like a friendship, which isn’t a great sign. They watch some baby videos of Caelynn before she shows him out and tells Colton that she’s in love with him.

Hannah’s hometown is up next, and she takes him to an etiquette class in Birmingham, Alabama. His reaction is perfection, pulling off his patented “I seem excited on the outside but am dying on the inside” look:

ABC

They make Colton:

Walk with a book on his head

Tear small pieces of bread, and butter them individually

Sit through a weird comparison between an umbrella and Hannah’s parents

This is his face of incredulity watching the etiquette teacher explaining how to eat bread:

ABC

The whole awkward experience gave me my life mantra, though:

RT if you know a guy like this ‍♂️ #TheBachelor @colton pic.twitter.com/vNVfWDsh4W

— The Bachelor (@BachelorABC) February 26, 2019

What seems like the entire city of Birmingham is at Hannah’s house, and they all scream when the couple walks in the door. Hannah gets questioned about whether she’s prepared for a possible fantasy suite, and Mama Beth comes around to the idea of her little girl being in love. “Go get it, girl.” Mama Beth should be there for motivational speeches all the time, in my opinion.

Hannah caps off the most speaking she’s done on the show to tell Colton that she’s falling in love with him.

Next up is Santa Ana, California, for Tayshia’s hometown. It gets off to a great start as she immediately blindfolds him.

Colton: Are you blindfolding me?

Tayshia: Yep!

Colton: Oh, boy.

They get in her car, and then my favorite moment of the episode happens:

.@colton knew this would be a wild ride #TheBachelor pic.twitter.com/ypxhkK4sfP

— The Bachelor (@BachelorABC) February 26, 2019

She takes him to Lake Elsinore, where they’re going to go skydiving, which is terrible because they both hate heights. SPOILER ALERT: They live, and the couple heads to her parents’ house to meet her family. Things go pretty well, probably because Tayshia’s dad is the episode MVP. After eating and talking, the couple parts ways with more declarations of strong feelings and kissing outside the SUV.

They saved the best for last as Cassie teaches Colton how to surf in her hometown of Huntington Beach, California. Wonderful Cassie seems like a great teacher, but Colton doesn’t have a super smooth outing on the waves his first time out.

ABC

After surfing, they have a heart-to-heart on the beach, and Cassie doesn’t give him much to feel secure about as she says she’s not super sure where she’s at with this whole thing. Poppa Cassie is ... not a fan of all of this:

ABC

Cassie talks through her emotions with her sister, who tells her there are hundreds of other men out there if this doesn’t work out, which is honestly great advice. Colton seems to be into Cassie the most, but she’s the only one who hasn’t said she’s falling in love with him at this point of the show. The pair parts ways after the hometown visit with our titular hero super confused about what he’s going to do.

At the rose ceremony, Colton keeps Hannah, Tayshia, and Cassie, sending a heartbroken Caelynn home.

Next week, we get the fabulously dramatic Fantasy Suites, which have an added layer of drama this season as — I don’t know if you’ve heard — Colton is a virgin. Will he sleep with one of the women? WILL HE SLEEP WITH ALL OF THEM? WILL HE FINALLY JUMP THE FENCE?

Here were the highs (and lows) of Week 8:

Best Cookout Addition: Deep fryer

WHAT IS THAT I SEE? Caelynn’s family steps up the normal backdoor grillin’ with a set of not one, not two, but THREE deep fryers. Based on snippets of conversation, there’s a litany of things to deep fry, including cookies. Respect.

ABC

Most Touching Moment: Caelynn and John

I’m a sap, but I’ll admit I got choked up as Caelynn shared with her stepdad John what he’s meant to her. He was touched as she thanked him for everything he’s done for her, and he quotes Whitney Houston as he says he’ll always love her. It was stinkin’ adorable.

Best Death Glare from a Parent: Hannah’s mom Beth

Colton gave a nice toast at the dinner table, saying that he was honored to be in their house and around the people that made Hannah into the wonderful woman she is. This seems to be the moment that Hannah’s mom Beth realizes that this man (or a man in general) is going to marry her daughter and effectively steal her from them. She’s not stoked:

ABC

Don’t piss off Mama Beth.

Riskiest Date Move: Skydiving

As a reminder, Colton made Tayshia bungee jump back on their one-on-one date, but this seems just ... mean. Colton is the actual definition of white-knuckled:

ABC

Look, I come from the school of “never jump out of a perfectly good airplane” as a former naval aviator, but at least I have been through some training. It’s cruel to just spring this on someone! Especially someone scared of heights! Colton does it, but not without a very high-pitched scream and some panicked leg flailing.

They obviously live — man wouldn’t that have been a crazy twist — and it turns into a “wow our relationship is all about pushing each other out of our comfort zones.”

Favorite Family Member: Tayshia’s brother Bryce

UMM, HE’S THE CUTEST. Tayshia’s dad asked Bryce if he wanted to see Tayshia married again (she has been divorced once), and his response was the purest: “If it goes well, then yeah!” You’re a doll, Bryce. A total doll.

ABC

Her other brother is in training to be a federal law enforcement officer, so he threatens to hunt Colton down as an FBI agent. “Man, everybody is going to be after me,” Colton says in response. This is my favorite family.

Weirdest Family Chat Location: The bed

Every hometown visit involves the mom or sister talking, and they inevitably excuse themselves from the normal talking areas — like the living room or the kitchen or the patio — to go to what looks like the guest bedroom to chat on a fully made bed full of pillows.

Has this ever happened naturally in the history of people talking?

Best Quote: Tayshia’s Dad

“You don’t microwave relationships.”

And he made this face after she said that she would say yes if Colton proposed at this stage of the relationship:

ABC

What I really loved about Tayshia’s dad is that he gave Colton advice like a father would. It wasn’t just “don’t break my daughter’s heart,” it was a sincere hope that, no matter which of the four women it was, that Colton would be respectful of their feelings. I’m here for Poppa Tayshia.

Coldest Assessment of Colton: Cassie’s dad

“I didn’t have a strong initial opinion of Colton because I don’t like to draw judgment too quickly. I could tell Colton was being affectionate with Cassie. I don’t know if that’s what he does with all the girls he goes out with and is meeting the parents. We don’t know him, but he seemed like a ... guy.”

LOLOL.

Cassie apparently didn’t know this until the episode aired, and her reaction was perfect:

“He seemed like a guy” HAHAHAHA DAD OMG

Colton Asking for Blessings Power Rankings

This is always a super awkward part of what’s already a super awkward show, but a guy asking a dad for his daughter’s hand in marriage when that guy is still dating three other women is A LOT.

Here’s how it went, from least awkward to most awkward.

4. Caelynn’s dad: Started skeptical, but came around quickly and gave his blessing.

3. Hannah’s dad: “What are your intentions with my daughter, man? You guys have known each other for what, a month?” Good question, dad. There were a lot of awkward pauses, but he seem sincerely touched that Colton asked, and eventually said yes.

2. Tayshia’s dad: His grilling of Colton was thorough and fair, questioning his feelings at this point. After Colton says he’s falling in love with Tayshia, he says Colton seems like a smart man and that he would pick his words wisely regarding “love.” Colton asks for his blessing, and he’s the only one to withhold, saying he just met him. SUPER FAIR, POPS!!! He later changes his mind after chatting with Tayshia, eventually giving his permission.

1. Cassie’s dad: Her dad said giving his permission for her hand in marriage would be a “premature blessing,” and you could see Colton’s spirit just leave his body. You can tell her dad is not a fan of this whole thing and thinks she’s too young and this is too accelerated.

Gone Too Soon

*****Elon Musk , David Rank and others have resigned from the Trump administration after America was taken out of the Paris climate agreement. The deal took years of negotiation and compromise and clean energy is the economics of the future. Scary Clown said that he represents Pittsburgh, not Paris and seems to see the agreement as a threat to his isolation America first ideas.  The mayor of Pittsburgh tells us, “What Trump did was not only bad for the economy but also weakened America in the world.” It will take 4 years before the U.S. can actually quit the deal. Luckily, so many companies in this country are so against Trump that we’ll probably hit our goals anyway.** The mayors of Paris and Pittsburgh have since made their own climate deal.** Others have resigned over the lack of interest the Trump administration is showing AIDS.

*****The Eagles will use Vince Gill and Glenn Frey’s son, Deacon for some NY and LA shows.

*****Word is that the American Idol reboot wanted Randy Jackson for the host gig but he turned it down.

***** After many of Trump’s minions have tried to convince us that what they have done is not a travel ban, the man himself says it is. They originally claimed that this would only be for 90 days and they would have new things in place and it has been over 90 days. The President tells us that they are extreme vetting anyway so why does he want to take this to the Supreme Court?**The supreme court is letting them do it now!!** His rabid supporters  and GOP cohorts are just enablers at this point.

*****The Cosby trial ended in a mistrial. I was at the Red Cross the other day and some employees were watching a news report about the trial.

I’d have to drug MYSELF to do her,” he laughed.** Cosby is now going to do a town hall type tour.

*****Anne Rice says that she has been blocked from trump’s twitter site.

*****Trump lawyer, Jay Sekulow is so blatant about using donations from his Christian non profit to fund his personal life. Please read the article in the Guardian because the history of this is so far reaching that I can’t even go into it all here. Perhaps these givers don’t care and want to support this guy but they should know where there money is going.

*****The buzz about American crime story is starting even though it won’t be out until 2018. Next up is a look at Versace then hurricane Katrina and the Lewinsky scandal.

*****Megyn Kelly didn’t do much hard hitting on her Putin interview. She sure seems to like interviewing the hate mongers.

*****Alice Cooper is coming out with a new album.

*****Jay-Z is upset with the Prince estate.  He is quoted as saying, “This guy had ‘slave’ on his face. You think he wanted the masters with his masters?”

*****Elvis Costello is working on a Broadway musical about A Face in the crowd. Hooray! He is also heading out on tour.

*****Forbes is doing its part to expose the Trump’s. They did an in depth story about how Eric Trump’s  charity money for kids with cancer was funneled back into the business. There is now an investigation into this claim.

*****Thank you Chicago for the 10 story mural by Eduardo Kobra. The Muddy Waters mural was unveiled on June 8 at 17 N. State Street for the Chicago blues fest.  The Muddy Waters legacy gave a free concert.

*****The HBO doc,’ If you’re not in the obit, eat breakfast’ is so inspirational and adorable. Dick Van Dyke is still a sexy beast and who knew that Carl Reiner’s oldest friend is an army buddy known as the greatest harmonica player.

*****Reality Winner has been charged with leaking classified info.

*****The infrastructure plan that Trump told us was” largely complete”, isn’t done at all. He now signed a proposal that is not binding so it means nothing. WTF are they doing?

*****Days alert:  Oh, I was so hoping that they would find Tony Dimera on that Island, even though Anna carries around his ashes. It is a soap, everybody comes back. Speaking of that, Chandler Massey, who played the first ‘out’ Will Horton, is returning in September. Rory’s back!!** Where is Paul’s Mom since he is fighting for his life? ** So.. Chloe gives up the baby to Nicole and the court takes it away. Maggie is allowed to see the baby, why wouldn’t she just try to get custody of her grandson and Holly would still be in the house?? ** Thank goodness we are seeing more of Andre!

*****Chris Rock was on the cover of Rolling Stone and is on tour to make money after his divorce. He “jokes” that he had multiple affairs. Many claim that the famous affair he mentioned was with Kerry Washington.

*****The President wants to give 110 billion to Saudi Arabia for weapons.

*****Chris Wray has been nominated for FBI director.

*****Beyonce and Jay Z had twins.

*****Paul McCartney got the companion of honour in the UK.

*****Thank you CBS all access for topping off your latest ad with Matthew Gray Gubler! YES!!

*****Panama is breaking ties with Taiwan and shifting allegiance to China.

*****The director of health and human services in Michigan, Nick Lyon has been charged with involuntary manslaughter over the contaminated water.

*****Congrads to Jill Brummel and Keith and baby Wagner!

*****Check out Blood Orange for some great tunes!!

*****Woodstock has joined the National register of historic places.

*****Intel chiefs like Dan Coates refused to answer questions from their oversight committee in the probe. Rogers, Rubenstein and McCabe all seem to have trouble talking. This cover up is so much worse than Watergate. Former US director of National intelligence, James Clapper says, “Watergate pales, really, in my view, compared to what we’re confronting.”** The opening statement of James Comey was released the day before his big day. He confirms that Trump wanted him to drop the Flynn stuff and talked about the cloud of the Russian stuff. He transcribed the conversations with the President as soon as they were over.**Ya know, I was mad at Comey for the Hillary crap that he now tells us went public because he did not like the Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch meeting. Most that have worked with him seem to call him an honorable man. I was trying to believe he would do the right thing in the Trump administration investigations. After he was fired, Trump mentioned he may have tapes and Comey had a friend release his version even though some say the leaks were first. The Trump tweet was May 12 and the first news of leaks were May 16. Now, I still try to believe that Comey is an honest man but he sometimes acts like a child (someone does something so he immediately seems to say, ok, well take that!!). But we have to notice that Scary Clown’s stories always change, Comey’s does not. As far as who called who, there must be records.**As Comey was testifying, the house repealed Dodd Frank. C’mon Press, let’s get ALL the news out there!** BTW, there are no tapes, that was just more scary clown BS.** It seems that 38% of this country is trying to run the show and those 38% don’t give a shit about the rest of us.

*****Investigators have found a direct link that puts Putin at the center of the election disruption. The plan was to help Trump and hurt Hillary. Word is that the Obama administration did not take action because they thought Putin might escalate his cyber meddling. John Kerry tried hard to get some action but the White house thought they would be accused of trying to sway things for Hillary. It’s sad but true because the Trump camp would have went nuts. The instability and doubt may have changed this country forever. It seems many do not care as long as they have their guy in power now. **Power outages in the Ukraine have also been linked to Russia. It looks like they are now gunning for us. The centralized system in the Ukraine is not as hard to set right as ours would be. Our power system is more complicated and would be harder to tamper with but also harder to straighten out. Russia appears to have an adaptable and reusable software.** Fox’s Brit Hume says that even if the Trump campaign did collude with Russia, “it’s not a crime.” They all say ‘America first’ but I am beginning to think they would all be happier in Russia.** Over 2000 pages of financial documents have been turned over to the investigation.

*****And WTF is up with John McCain? He was like a dog with a bone about bringing up the Hillary stuff again. And he does not seem to like women asking questions because he keeps interrupting. It is time to retire.** Did  you see Sen. Martin Heinrich??

*****Rep. Al Green of Texas and Brad Sherman of California are drafting articles of impeachment because Trump obstructed justice when he fired Comey. Just as this is in the works, Melania and Baron finally move into the White house.** Pence and even Trumps lawyer have hired attorneys.**After 8 years of class and pride, this country sure has taken a big step into the gutter.

*****The Generals seem to have their problems with the new President. A quote from Trump says,” The Lieutenants, the captain, their majors, the colonels- they’re professionals. They love doing it. So I authorized the generals to do the fighting.” I thought he said he knew more than them but now he gives no direction so his hands don’t get dirty. He has no strategy and there are so many vacant positions that there are not enough experts to go around. Using U.S. money to follow his family around while they make business deals instead of the government being properly staffed does not seem very safe for the rest of us.

*****Did ya’ll see those relaxed pics of Obama and Trudeau and their wine in Montreal? Wow.. It all seems so wonderfully normal.

*****Turkey has banned Wikipedia, calling it a national security threat.

*****Kevin Spacey did a great job hosting the Tony’s. His opening number included Whoopi and Stephen Colbert.  Spacey later did his Carson and said “admit it, you missed me”. I suddenly felt so sad because I realized I really do miss him. Richard Thomas and Danny Devito were both nominated for The Little Foxes but both lost to Michael Aronov. Foxes did get a win for Jane Greenwood for costume design and featured actress, Cynthia Nixon. Nixon gave a fabulous speech about the people of this nation that do not take what is happening in Washington lying down. James Earl Jones won the lifetime achievement but only got a snippet of time on air. Laurie Metcalf won for leading actress in a play for A Doll’s house part 2. Bette Midler looked great and won but would not shut up.** Best Dressed was Sarah Paulson and worst was Carolyn Murphy.

*****Patricia Krenwinkel was denied parole again.

*****Oliver Stone interviewed Putin over 20 hours in 4 visits. Putin drove him around and seemed to convince Stone that he is a pretty great guy. He seemed to take Putin’s word about meddling in the election. Some say it is a love letter to Putin and I see shades of Barbara Walters and Fidel Castro.

*****There was some voter fraud in Alton, Il. An 88 year old election judge pleaded guilty to voting for Trump for her dead husband. She claims he would have wanted her to.

*****Summer Camp 2017 in Chillicothe, Il. had some great artists this year with Claypool Lennon delirium, the Wood brothers and Gov’t. Mule. A few people were taken away after the sudden storm but other than that fun was had by all.

*****Phil Collins had to postpone a London gig after a fall.

*****Dick Gregory is out again making appearances and I wanna go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*****Theresa May misjudged her public when she called for an election in the UK. Her conservative party has lost some of its power.

*****The UK has acquired Feud: Bette and Joan to play later this year.

*****OMG: TLC SYTTD UK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*****John Oliver is being sued by a great friend of Trump’s, Robert Murray. Murray, the CEO of Murray energy warned him not to do a story on him but he did it anyway. Go John!! Look it up, it’s a story worth seeing.

*****Diedrick Bader just gets hotter

*****The Downton Abbey movie will start production in 2018!

*****An inconvenient sequel, which is out July 28, has added a bit after Trump pulled out of the Paris climate accord.

*****Ivanka is being ordered to give a deposition in a lawsuit about copying a shoe design. The Italian company that sued is Aquazzura but she claims that she had nothing to do with any of it. Her claim is that she can’t give the deposition because it would be a distraction from her WH duties. Her Fox and friends interview sound bite was :”I try to stay out of politics.”

*****Leslie Jones hosted the BET awards and earned good reviews but she later tweeted about the hotel she stayed in. She suggested that people not stay at the Ritz Carlton because, “they don’t like black people.”

*****Farm Aid is being held in Burgettstown, Pa. with Willie, John Mellencamp, Neil Young and the Avett Brothers among others.

*****Fox news will no longer use the line, “fair and balanced.”

*****Daniel Day Lewis has retired from acting.

*****Tony Bennett is given the Library of congress Gershwin prize.

*****Judd Apatow is making a doc bout Garry Shandling. Can’t wait!!

***** Sean Spicer is interviewing his own replacement including Fox news and Daily mail employees.

*****The U.S. spent 28 mil on uniforms for the Afghan military. They were not field tested and did not work out. An official wanted a specific lush forest motif while most of the landscape is desert. WTF?

*****O.J. is up for parole.

*****The secret health care bill came out and many protested at Mitch Mcconnell’s office. Police were sent in to drag them out, wheelchairs and all. It seems we have not been this divided since the civil war. What is more important than health care for all, than equality? Is a wall more important? Are tax cuts for the rich more important?  In the end, the haters always lose but not without hurting so many along the way. It always comes down to equality. It is always about some trying to keep down others and that is never right. It always has to lose in the end. ** The vote has now been delayed. **Good old Mitch who was given treatment for his polio, as a child, because of the kindness of the March of Dimes now refuses to talk to them. They disagree with the health care plan.**More health care insurance providers are bowing out of coverage. The companies blame the uncertainty of Washington. This is just another reason to blame Obama for the senate and house’s own doing. Keep things in chaos and blame the other guy while the rest of the country suffers. ** The Pres now says that the ACA should just be repealed, new plan or not.

*****It is being reported that the CIA health professionals did not just torture detainees during the Bush administration, they performed experiments.. This is like right out of the Nazi playbook.

***** We don’t hear enough about men who are straight and mostly dress masculine but like a little makeup. I find that adorable and they need to be represented

*****Wow!! The NY senate after a decade, still did not vote on the child victims act. The Catholic Church and the Boy scouts lobby so hard because they think it will bankrupt them. The bill would let survivors bring civil cases until they are 50 years old, felonies until 28, and give a 1 year window for both public and private institutions instead of 90 days. Republican majority leader John Flanagan will not even put it up for a vote.

*****Illinois has its fair share of problems right now with the budget crisis, Chicago and Peoria shootings and the Belleville shooter, James T. Hodgkinson.

*****Why do the View and the Tonight show play all these stupid games with their guests? Does the audience enjoy this? It is often so awkward.

*****Jess Session says that Trump has not been in a single briefing about North Korea. I am sure the new South Korean president is reassured by that as he came for a visit. The shuffling of reporters and questions about the idiot in chiefs twitter made him feel welcome too.

*****And now the airwaves explode with the latest scary clown 45 twitter directed at the Morning Joe team. Why do we have to talk endlessly about this crap every time the baby has a tantrum? Unless we find some real evidence or this impeachment march does some real good, we better get used to the fact that our President has no fucking class!

*****Neil Young is reminding us to stand up for what we believe and resist this 4th with a new video.

*****The Presidents team is trying to get personal info on voters like social security numbers and voting history which could lead to voter intimidation.

*****The Frye fest head Billy McFarland has been arrested for wire fraud.

*****Adele has cancelled the rest of her tour because of damage to her vocal chords. It is especially sad for she has hinted that this could be her last tour.

***** If you haven’t seen the 2014 doc ‘ Starring Adam West’, check it out. The Kickstarter film is so honest and a great tribute to a man who will be missed.  He also has some hot sons!!

*****R.I.P. Zbigniew Brzezinski, Manuel Noriega, Jimmy Piersall, Roger Smith, Peter Sallis, Modd Deep, Stephen Furst, Rosalie Sorrels, Glenne Headly, Simone Veil, Adam West and Anita Pallenberg.

I’ll probably get so flamed for that but it’s true. I also adored her scene with Carol in ‘Not Tomorrow Yet’ and would love more of that. (You know, if Carol comes back to TF before the next century dawns.)needs to stay away from: Men, at this pointmisc. thoughts: I’m actually surprised by how much I love her, because I have very few feelings for most characters who joined up after 4A. But I have truly grown to love her a lot and I hope they manage to back her down a little from where they seem to be taking her right now. Still, I’m cautiously optimistic. I love how unapologetically fierce she is omg.
