Actually, no, we should know what a woman is. If you’re going to challenge a term, you have to come up with a new definition. If we are going to have a rational conversation, all terms must be defined.

If woman doesn’t mean adult female human, what does it mean? If you’re getting defensive reading this, that’s a problem. You should be able to know what you’re arguing for. You should be able to tell people what you’re arguing for. Otherwise, what the fuck are you even doing? Why are you arguing about something that, if undefined, logically does not exist?

I would love for everyone to be happy. Delusion is not happiness. I need to know whether this is delusion or not.

does working full time making anyone else irrationally bitter and resentful or is that just a me issue

[aq2003]

there is a certain balance to alec hardy characterization that will make a broadchurch fic click for me or not and i think it's like.. he's not really that insecure, he's actually got a fair amount of pride, but also he doesn't think he deserves any sympathy or comfort and he is somewhat of a pushover when it comes to the people he cares about the most and this is why he is overly self reliant and completely unable to ask for help. like his coworkers hating him or his reputation being dragged through the mud does not faze him but on the other hand i think he wouldn't be able to really register, like, relationship red flags as such bc he's used to a lack of love/affection from others

i can't stop thinking about the first episode of season 6, when sam tries to convince dean to come with him, to come back to hunting. he says "it's just better with you around, that's all." it's an interesting line because sam is soulless, obviously. and even though he doesn't understand the details yet, he knows something's wrong with him.

"it's better with you around" he says, citing dean's compassion and care for others as the reason why. and how interesting is that? sam's working with plenty of other hunters who still have their souls—they're all more than capable of caring about the people they save. but sam needs dean specifically. he knows he's missing something, and he sees dean and recognizes that something in him. even cold and calculating and unrelentingly logical, sam recognizes that dean, alone, can "complete" him, give something back to him that he's supposed to have.

in episode 8 he tells dean he "needs his help." he doesn't elaborate; he never explains what he means by that. he has a whole family of hunters who'd be willing and able to help him, but still he needs dean. even without his soul, his hyperrational mind knows he needs him.

soulless sam isn't capable of caring about dean. but he doesn't need to care to know they need to be together, no matter what—to know dean is good for him, dean completes him, dean needs to be there for him.

it's like a sick reversal of season 1. sam drags dean back into this life because he can't keep going without him. because he needs him. because when you think about it logically, and sam has no other choice, there was never any other option for them.

[pratchettquotes]

Victor remembered being frightened of tigers when he was young. In vain did people point out that the nearest tiger was three thousand miles away. He'd say, "Is there any sea between where they live and here?" and people would say, "Well, no, but--" and he'd say, "Then it's just a matter of distance."

Darkness was the same thing. All dreadful dark places were connected by the nature of darkness itself. Darkness was everywhere, all the time, just waiting for the lights to go out.

(FIC DESCRIPTION AND CHARACTER DESIGNS UNDER THE CUT)

Deep within the white-painted halls of the Cade Astronomy Center, a scientist works. He prefers to work alone. That may change when a new assistant comes his way...

OFFICIALLY ANNOUNCING THAT I WILL BE POSTING IRRATIONAL BLUE ON THIS SITE!!

Irrational Blue (Dr. Gossiteure's Diary) is a Sanders Sides sci-fi AU fic, mostly centered around the Logicality ship, but with some Prinxiety and Dukeceit in there too. The story follows one of the head researchers at the Cade Astronomy Center, Dr. Logan Gossiteure, as he works through his past, his emotions, his trauma, and a newfound crush on one Patton Coralou.

Things start off small, but eventually, he and Patton discover that things are much bigger than the lab, and that there's things in Logan's past that may be otherworldly...

The fic will be coming out chapter-by-chapter on this site, and when (if) it is finished, I will post the entire thing on AO3. The trigger warnings are likely going to be many, just fyi. Every official post about this fic will be tagged with "#irrational blue official post"

Hope you're excited! Prologue comes out right after this, ch1 comes out tomorrow :]

Here's the boys:

Anyone know the science behind why it physically hurts to find out someone else doesn’t like something you’re hyperfixated on?? Because I know rationally that it shouldn’t, and yet….

see the thing is i keep scrolling past that post that's like "what brand of character always ends up as your blorbo" bc i genuinely couldn't condense any of my favorite characters into a mold that would fit all of them. until i remembered "because, underneath it all, crowley was an optimist" and made a sound like a strangled goose.
