shoutout to media with only one female character that’s just a vessel for a sexual assault and/or pregnancy plot line with very little or no characterization beyond that

Trying to find nice stuff for Wish but everywhere you go people are being painfully wrong in their interpretations of the movie

The story of these two men is my Roman Empire.

Yuri Gagarin and Vladimir Komarov were highly decorated Cosmonauts, both of which made firsts in the history of space flight.

Yuri Gagarin famously became the first man in space on April 12, 1961.

Vladimir Komarov piloted Voshkod 1 on October 12, 1964 on the first space mission to carry multiple crew members. He flew again aboard Soyuz 1 on April 23, 1967, becoming the first Russian man to make two spaceflights.

Yuri Gagarin and Vladimir Komarov were close.

The Soyuz 1 was described as being “a piece of shit” and a “devil ship” as issues plagued the spacecraft throughout development and failed testing. Yuri had done everything he could to get the launch postponed, including writing a ten-page memo detailing the 203 structural problems he had discovered during inspection of the Soyuz 1. Any person who had laid eyes on the memo would be fired or demoted.

Komarov knew of these issues, but refused to step down from the missions. In March of 1987 he met with Venyamin Russayev, a then-recently-demoted KGB agent who had been assigned to "mind" Yuri Gagarin.

He met with Russayev and said, "I'm not going to make it back from this flight." Russayev asked, “Why not refuse?” Komarov answered: "If I don't make this flight, they'll send the backup pilot instead." That was Yuri Gagarin. Komarov couldn't do that to his friend. "That's Yura. And he'll die instead of me. We've got to take care of him." Komarov then burst into tears.

Yuri, nicknamed Yura by friends and family, showed up on the day of the launch “demanding to be put into a space suit,” "demanding this and this and this...", doing anything and everything he could to be the one on that spacecraft instead of Vladimir. Unfortunately, his attempts were be futile.

Soyuz 1 would launch on April 23, 1967 and faced serious issues throughout the flight. The parachutes failed to deploy during reentry and the spacecraft burned up while Vladimir screamed and cried and cursed out those responsible.

Yuri Gagarin was grounded from future space flights and denied permission to pilot military jets. This was devastating for the already deeply depressed man and everyone knew it. Even his favorite hairdresser said that “Yuri couldn't live without flying. It was his whole life. A man can't live without his trade. He can't survive.”

He eventually convinced them to let him fly, but on March 28, 1968, less than a year since Komarov’s accident, he was tragically killed during a routine-training flight aboard a MiG-15. The cause of the accident is unclear, though many speculate that the accident was an assassination on the cosmonaut as he had a falling out with several high-ranking officials following the death of his close friend.

Both Yuri Gagarin and Vladimir Komarov’s names are featured on the memorial for fallen US Astronauts and USSR Cosmonauts left on the moon by the Apollo 11 crew.

Wait if all the journal 3 pages were restored after Weirdmageddon why does Bill’s book insist there were still missing pages that just conveniently happened to pertain to his incredibly sad backstory and concepts brought up earlier in that same book

I think one of the weirdest thing to me about Helluva Boss is how they keep proving that Striker is right but at the same time they refuse to let Striker himself be right.

Someone on twitter pointed out that in Oops Striker talks about it being an embarrassment to imp kind that Fizz is a purse-dog to his over-bloated master, and then, while Striker might’ve been referring to Ozzie (although the use of over-bloated makes me wonder if he truly meant Mammon), the entirety of the next episode is all about Fizz saying fuck you to Mammon (his master) and quitting his job because he doesn’t wanna be exploited or abused anymore.

And this just reminded me how in the first season they had Striker say to Blitz “Starting with the one that treats you like a plaything.” about Stolas’ treatment towards him in Harvest Moon and then in Truth Seekers (the next episode) they literally had Stolas say “Who dare threaten my impish little plaything.”

I don’t know if this parallel is on purpose but that’s twice now where in back to back episodes in each season Striker has a made a point about the hierarchy in his episode and then the following episode goes out of its way to prove his point.

I just think it’s odd how they prove that he is right in other character’s storylines but in Striker’s own storyline he’s like not allowed to have a win despite everything around him saying he should.

Some f1 fans cannot handle being reminded that this is a competitive sport, not daycare. Sometimes people have to do things that will hurt a driver’s feelings, seem unfair, or piss off other competitors when there’s points and millions of dollars on the line. You can still be disappointed and upset without acting like the decision made on objectively sound sporting reasons requires a trip to the hague. If you cannot handle that this sport is not actually hair braiding and gentle parenting when push comes to shove, you might enjoy another hobby better.

even when sangcheol and jeongwoo are wary to trust each other what does stand out in the last four episodes is that sangcheol is the first actual adult around jeongwoo that does things to protect him from the townspeople and the town itself. several times now he stood between jeongwoo and any of the other police officers or villagers to stop them from hurting jeongwoo or make them talk to himself instead. even when they are on the odds at some points, sangcheol calls him first when he finds out new things in the investigation and uses those calls to check up on him too. he ran into jeongwoo’s house to save him from being shot (as he perceived) and stuck around to tend to him and to protect him (in his own so many words). even when they are slowly growing on each other, it is a good thing that there is at least one person around that shows jeongwoo he’s not in harm’s way all by himself and listens to him as well.

Not to be a stickler about grammar, but whenever I see shit about doomsday I get soooo unreasonably upset when people put “quite right too”. That doesn’t even make sense! It’s “quite right to” as in, you’re quite right to love me/as you’re supposed to!!! Gahhhhhh 😔

it is literally not about legality, if you’re in your late 30s literally what are you hitting up 21 y/os for. Don’t you have investments to make.

My dad won’t leave me the hell alone . I know that he’s prone to paranoid delusions but it was a lot easier to deal with when it was something like being convinced he’s a demon sent from hell. How am I supposed to convince a man his bitch ex wife and his bitch daughters aren’t plotting to ‘split his family up’ as he puts it. He is so convinced there’s no arguing. And if I refuse to argue he will yell more and tell me how I have no argument because I know he’s right. I know I shouldn’t react to that but it makes my blood boil 😐

Just finished S14, just have to question why Dean was so quick to try and kill his magic son like his brother and bestfriend haven’t also done incredibly insane things for a variety of reasons.

And the real kicker is.

It’s going to get so much worse.

This whole sneak peek scene between Buck and Eddie has me all over the place. I’d like to start off by saying Eddie is not a bad father. He has every right to call Buck and ask for help regarding Christopher regardless if you view it as a co-parent or godfather role. But what has me so nervous is Buck as a character.

When I saw the scene and saw that Eddie only asks for Buck to check in on him, I’m like “okay, that’s great. That’s good. Buck can do that.” But then I remember that it’s Buck, and he’s the type to not let things lay, and the one who likes to fix things. This is a situation that Eddie has created on his own whether you’d like to admit it or not. I know it’s not 100% his fault that it all lead up to this, he’s handling grief and we didn’t expect Kim to do what she did, but he had time to stop what he was doing. If he folded easily when Buck went to talk to him, it wasn’t because it was Buck, it was because he understood the heaviness of what he was doing.

Eddie should be the one who comforts his kid. I have mad respect for respecting Chris’ boundaries, but eventually he’s going to have to be the one who has that talk with him. I’m not worried about him doing that. He’s a good dad.

I’m worried Buck will try to fix this, though, and that’s where I’m unsure if he should get involved. I know he said he wouldn’t, but it’s Buck. Helping your single dad friend by watching his kid, and picking him up from school, or talking to him about things like relationships or insecurities about his dad (Chris needs to vent to someone outside of Eddie), those I understand. I just hope Mr. Buckley knows this one is for Eddie. Eddie needs to handle this and not try to fix it, because if Buck tries and fails at doing so I don’t want to see both of them blaming themselves for not being able to do something. It’s more understandable for Eddie to feel that way, but he’s gonna need Buck to help pull him out of that mindset if it goes wrong (and signs have been pointing that it will), and Buck can’t do that if he’s blaming himself too.
