Kids just won't experience woke anymore. Because of phone

I'm as grateful for cellphones as the next person, but sometimes I think about how everyone having a phone on them at all times really did cause us to loose some things as a society. I mean - for example, kids these days will never experience their car breaking down and needing to find the nearest place with a phone they can use. They're never going to have the opportunity to tentatively approach a house only to discover that it's full of queer people having a party hosted by a transvestite to celebrate his creation of a sex homunculus, stay the night, and loose their virginity while unintentionally partaking in cannibalism. It's tragic, that kind of gay sexual awakening just doesn't happen these days because of cellphones.

arcane season two act one: a cautionary tale on what happens when you try to date a cop

He was praying again. Dean couldn’t see him, but he could hear. Nothing distinctive, just mumbled words. Probably kneeling at the side of the bed, by the window—that was his favorite spot. Dean had just gotten out of the shower, and he’d learnt that while he showered, Sam prayed. Each night his rambling seemed longer. Dean felt like he was going insane. When had Sammy started believing? Where had he learnt it? What did he pray about?

Nothing that Sam kept secret like this could be good. He needed to know what was so important Sam had to pray to God about it. Was it morally correct to listen to a private prayer? Probably not. But it was Sam, and everything that was Sam’s was Deans. Always had been. So, he listened.

“Dear God, thank you for letting us return safe from this hunt. Thank you for saving Dean from that vampire.”

Dean snorted at that, that had nothing to do with some God. No, that was all him.

Sam took a deep breath before continuing, apparently done with his thanks. “God, are we judged for our thoughts? Is it a sin if I have never acted on it? I have prayed for forgiveness time and time again, and yet here I am again.”

What? What did he do desperately need forgiveness for? Was this about Jess?

“Father, please grant me forgiveness and guidance. Please let me wake up tomorrow and never think of him in that way again.” Sam had never treated their real father with that much respect. Guess only fantasy gets that treatment, Dean thought bitterly.

His voice soft and breathy, Sam begged, “Please Father, wash away my sinful thoughts of my brother.” Dean jolted, his head that had been pressed up against the peeling paint of the door jerking back. “Let my mind and body never yearn for his touch again.”

Sam shuddered and Dean fought the urge to go to his side. What was he saying? It didn’t make sense. Dean understood what he was saying abstractly, but it was all wrong. No, whatever thoughts Sam had about him, God wouldn’t fix him. Whatever yearnings he had, God wouldn’t take them away.

“Please God, save me.”

God didn’t exist. Dean did.

And Dean could save him.

Something I realised is that Mountain has his vest on in the Ghovie but during like any other Ritual he doesn’t usually wear it and only puts it on for bows.

So, imagine Copia walking back stage at the Forum, and Mountain’s getting ready, warming up etc.

His vest is still on the hanger, ready to be placed behind his riser with his boots, and Copia’s like “you have to wear it tonight.”

And Mountain, big and burly Earth Ghoul Mountain, throws an absolute temper tantrum over it.

"I Could Fix Them" ࿐ ࿔*:･ﾟ༄

it's easier to imagine a picture-perfect reality skewed by the tint of your rose-colored glasses than baring witness to the grisly truth of it all.

it's easier to imagine that if you were there, you could've altered the course of reality, that you could've been the previously-unrolled stone they hadn't turned before, that if maybe - just maybe - you were there, things wouldn't have turned out the way they did.

it's easier to imagine taking care of them, because you've seen what happens when nobody extends a kind hand, when nobody cooks them dinner or ties their shoes or lathers their hair with shampoo or wipes their tears when they cry and says, "it's okay, i understand you, i understand you, i'm the only one who understands you."

it's easier to imagine building them from the ground up, inserting vague personality traits originating from their voice-recordings, or their journal entries, or their internet keystrokes, constructing a profile close to the person that they once were, but not quite aligned with the truth of reality; it aligns with the truth of your reality.

it's easier to imagine you, yourself, your own being, being the caretaker for someone else, being the guiding hand that those who'd otherwise go astray needed, being the person that they couldn't - and didn't - have.

it's easier than imagining yourself cooking yourself dinner, or tying your own shoes, or lathering your own hair with shampoo, or wiping your own tears and looking around just to realize you have no one there to cradle you.

it's easier to imagine helping someone else.

it's easier to imagine helping someone else, because nobody helped you.

Silly little headcanon that Janus and Virgil always accidentally end up doing the same thing without realizing it.

Janus is very private and doesn't like people snooping around in his stuff, so he writes his notes in a secret alphabet he came up with so no one could read it.

Virgil has a diary he hides in his room and worries about Remus or someone else finding it, so he's written it in his own invented code for good measure.

It's only when Virgil randomly looks over Janus' shoulder in the common room to see what he's writing that he realizes they're both using the SAME DAMN CODE.

They have similar taste in junk food and hide their preferred snack in the same spot where no one will look for it. They think they're the only one stocking it and get confused by how they run out so soon when they aren't eating it that much (the other side was eating it too because they thought it was theirs)

Janus is hungry late at night, and when he goes downstairs he catches Virgil already grabbing one of their snacks, which is when he finally figures it out.

About every other month one of them catches the other doing something they already do and it always ends up like this:

Do it for the Vin(e)

I'm convinced that if Kelsier had a spike, all Ruin would need to whisper to him is, "do it for the vine," and he would do literally anything.

like picture you’re lassie for a second ok so you’re just doing your job and you decide to follow a lead by calling in this guy who seems to know just a little too much about the case. in walks this guy who a) is a smarmy jackass who immediately disrespects you b) has a dad you look up to and desperately wish you had but this guy does nothing but act like his dad is garbage c) exposes the one thing you have going for you in the relationship department in the middle of a shitty divorce you don’t acknowledge is a divorce so now that’s over and d) manages to charm the pants off everyone in like 0.2 seconds whereas you’ve been unable to be anything but at best tolerated for what, 10 years? you’ve gotten where you are by putting in the work and you believe people respect you for it but then in walks this guy who hasn’t worked a hard day in his life but he’s got 10x the charisma and he makes fun of you and everyone loves him and no one is on your side. to make matters worse this guy is better than you at your job but he won’t give you the basic decency to tell you how. instead he’s just blatantly conning everyone around you and lying and lying and lying and no one can see or admit that he’s lying except for you. and you hate liars. but. he’s better than you. at the end of the day he’s better than you. he sees things you don’t and he helps people you can’t. and you care more about getting justice for people than you do your ego even if you will never admit it. you certainly are never going to tell this slacker that he astounds you.

now picture you’re shawn for a second. ok so you kind of hate your dad for never letting you be a kid and for giving you this crazy ability but you can’t turn the ability off. you can’t let yourself turn the ability off. you’re doing what your dad made you do even if you don’t want to and you use it to help people and that makes you feel good but you’re still doing what your dad wanted you to do and so it also makes you feel even worse. ok. so you help this one guy out and does he thank you? no. he brings you in for questioning. and he literally has everything your dad wanted you to have. and it’s all what you could’ve had if your dad hadn’t decided to end the chances of that ever happening the moment you dared to rebel against him like a normal teenager. and you just know your dad wishes he had a son like this guy. a respectable son with a great career. a son who does things the right way and isn’t an embarrassment. well, you are an embarrassment. you are who you are, you’re shameless and wacky and you say you love yourself for it but you know deep down that it isn’t good enough. it wasn’t enough to keep your mom around. you’re childish and annoying and deeply unavailable and the only one who ever sticks around is your best friend and you’re ashamed that you’ve tricked him into putting up with you and even more ashamed that you just can’t let him go. so anyway this guy questioning you sneers at you for having a record and not being able to hold a job or commit to anything and it pisses you off because it’s the exact same thing your dad does. your dad who had relationship troubles with your mom and drove her away and won’t admit his own failure and of course this asshole is having an affair they are literally all the same. you are going to rip this guy apart for daring to see through you and make you feel bad about yourself. he likes ordering people around well you despise being controlled. he’s obnoxious and arrogant and cares more about his reputation than anything well. you’re still better than him and are going to absolutely destroy that credibility in front of everyone. because your dad molded you to do things the right way for years and then threw it all out the moment you embarrassed him, and there’s like no way this guy wouldn’t do the exact same. you certainly are never going to tell this guy that you envy him.

now picture this guy you have an entire complex about gets drunk and tells you a) his life sucks and b) that he knows you’re a liar but he can see past your bullshit and still thinks you’re amazing. picture he sabotages his own record to help you do the right thing for an innocent person, and he even rewards you for it later even if he’ll never admit it. picture you’re lassie and just when you think you’ve hit rock bottom this guy is the one to try and pull you out of the hole you’ve dug for yourself even if he won’t admit it’s what he’s doing. he helps you save the partner you’ve come to care about like your little sibling and he makes these little gestures to let you know you’re included when there’s no way he should even know that’s all you ever wanted. now picture gus in a funny hat

ik it was intended primarily for funny show reasons but shassie is just a crazy dichotomy. Guy with commitment issues vs guy who commits too hard. Guy with no dad vs guy with too much dad. Guy with net negative social skills who desperately wants them vs guy with incredible insight into people who hates himself for having it. Guy who’s surly and mean to hide need to be loved vs guy who’s breezy and charming to hide need to be loved
