I was super bored in class the other day, and because I wasn't in the front row I couldn't start mindlessly scrolling through tumblr so I ended up writing 2000+ words of half life fanfiction. I'm not entirely sure how that happened but tbh I'm liking it so far

Another gem I found via the posts on social media…..
Kathy’s Cafe located down the 563 Batchawana Bay.
Homemade food.
All day breakfast 🍳
…. Talking to the owner, this cafe came to be after the passing of her 42 year old daughter Kathy in a car accident. The two of them had wanted to open a cafe and tried for years but were unsuccessful. After Kathy’s passing, her mom decided to try again and now has a beautiful cafe in her daughters honour 💕 …
A beautiful portrait hangs in the cafe in tribute of her gorgeous daughter (see picture).
If you’re in the area this is a wonderful and quiet place to dine and every day she has a special. I’ve heard that her pizza is amazing too !!! Oh, and DO NOT forget to buy a cinnamon bun because they are delicious !!! 🚙 …. Kathy’s Cafe

Okay but I haven’t seen anyone else mention this, when Jekyll’s in the subconscious and has a board of papers comparing him and Hyde we mostly see notes on Hyde but if you look in the bottom right corner,
You see this
“A good person” crossed out.
Someone get him therapy

Visited New York for the weekend from Florida and my main take away is that I need Disney to please lobby Florida to build monorails everywhere
#I CAAAAANT drive around Millenia anymore that place is a nightmare I NEED some kind of train that stops over there#what insane civil engineer said 'yes lets put 17 billion high traffic stores near apartments near a school near the busiest highway and#they all exit using the same 2-lane road (and one of them is blocked by construction cones) OOPS WHY IS IT ALWASY BACKED UP'

Feeling nostalgic for good fpses again and want to go back to my half life 2 playthrough
But last time I played it it gave me terrible motion sickness and idk if I want to deal with that this weekend
Which really sucks because that is a great game, an absolutely terrific game, probably the best game I've ever played both from a story telling and game design perspective, and you just don't get games like that anymore
#if valve still worked right theyd be making both that and the original half life as hd rereleases#i know there was a fan project to remake half life in the source engine but idk if they ever finished and released it or what#but the motion sickness is why i never beat half life sadly ��#i have it but i couldnt play longer than getting the suit#meanwhile half life 2 i was able to beat in high school so i know that#but when i tried replaying it earlier this year it gave me a headache#at least i was able to get to highway 17#i should be able to beat it i just need to figure out a gameplan to deal with the sickness#things i shouldnt have to do to game but oh well 🫠#this post brought to you by a poll asking if you prefer third person or first person in video games#and im like 'well it depends. i do love me a good first person shooter.'

#i love driving *so* much. like i was made to move i think. i was made to Go#i could do it for hours. days. just keep going and going. coasting. racing. cruising#i learned to drive stick today. and i drove down a highway that was pretty empty. and it wound through hills. groves of trees#tall grasses. i passed a winery and a small town or two with populations of only a couple hundred. large fields and farms#cows and horses. a rodeo fairground#it was beautiful. and no one was around. and i just drove and it's my favorite thing ever i think#god. it's like swimming in a moment. does that make sense? it's like i have nothing to worry about#and i love driving as the sun sets. i also love driving in the city at night when everyone is moving and living and doing all sorts of stuff#i love the lights and the smell of cold concrete. i also love the sun on my skin and wind through my hair and the smell of nature#and i love passing through it all. things slow down and speed up at the same time. i think i love it for the same reasons i love liminality#because that's also sorta what it's like#ugh#i hope someday part of my soul gets to fly a rickety old spaceship through the stars#there's an itch there that needs to be scratched. it won't happen in my lifetime but. maybe sometime later#anyways. i'm so glad i'm alive#sometimes i remember when i couldn't imagine myself older than 16/17#and i think about all my favorite things i've experienced. and everything i want to do. and i hold it so tightly#i'm just glad i'm here#sap says

every time it's so easy to think that this is the most you'll ever feel, that you'll never get it back again, but ngl life is full of different feelings, and all of them are going to be different because life marches on and so do you
#re my last post i was about 17 when that all went down and it felt like everything was falling apart because i had#all these plans and things i wanted to do with these people u know#anyway finding out years later what caused everything to fall apart made me go ?????? like what in the goddamn#so for years after i used to look back on that time and wish that it couldve lasted but looking back at it now as an adult im just#yeah okay so it was earth shattering at 17 but at 27 im good. i have other adventures i want to go on. i have friends that i've known#for over a decade now that i love#the feeling i experienced at 17 when i thought about the future was identical to when i was 23#and in a friend's car and we were driving down the highway at 3am to get coffee blasting music with the windows down scream singing#like sometimes it's all good and you will get back what you feel you are missing

Sometimes a small throwaway detail just comes to me to fill in a space for a description and then I start peeling at it and it's Fucking Rad.
Jody giving Lucifer a pocket knife for Christmas because every man-shaped person in middle America has a pocket knife and it doesn't matter that he can snap rebar with his hands. And she picks one with a mother of pearl handle, green for the most part with a white dove in flight at the end, and thinks the white wings are the important part.
But, it's the full story. It's about a dove that was cast out of the Ark to search for land over an endless ocean by the patriarch of humanity, with little regard for if that dove would find any rest or respite aside from the hungry dark ocean below it, because the needs of the Ark were greater than the risk of the dove. And the dove flew, and flew, and when it found land, the ocean of green probably looked like salvation. And that dove found rest on an olive branch, before returning to the Ark, taking a single leaf with it.
#Lucifer... is using that pocket knife to offer Alex his blood as proof of his love knowing full well how Fucked that is though...#But I am reincarnating that pocket knife into as many fractals as I can.#Lucifer is very weak to any suggestion that he's pure and white and holy. He rubs his thumb over that little dove A Lot.#Alex: You're Teaching Claire To Kill Do You Even Care About Me??? Lucifer: Hey you know what Celia would do to get out of this?#Look his teenage girlfriend-daughter tried to jump out of his car on the highway What Is He Supposed To Do??? *Not* entrench them further??#Lucifer this 17 year old has Azazel's blood and five years of traumabonding to familial monsters. You Cannot possibly fuck this up.
