#i wonder how many pandemics it will take for the world to admit that we're actually in a pandemic these days#seems most ppl aren't going to take anything seriously unless there are obvious serious and undeniable symptoms#akin to a xenomorph bursting out of an infected person's rib cage#(govt + news: 'it's actually fine to let a facehugger latch onto your face... you just need to make sure you wash your hands :)' )#(everyone: 'ok ❤ yay ❤')#h5n1#bird flu#avian flu#bsky

i can’t believe how much more insane this election year is already turning out to be compared to 2020. i fear the destiel girlies wont survive it
#assassination attempt? dem candidate (possibly) stepping down 3mo before the election?? election day falling on canon destiel day???#we’re really in it now hellers#and to think a global pandemic and nationwide lockdowns was the only thing we had going on last time#tbf the pandemic is still going strong tho 😔#destiel#spn

We’ve now found ourselves amid another shift in mass communication. One where algorithms successfully replaced ink and airwaves. And, just as 20th-century mass media created the concept of the consumer a hundred years ago, so too has this current shift redefined how we interact with the world. And accepting that this shift is permanent, in the sense that we can’t simply reverse it, is, I’m convinced, the only way forward. We are now either influencers or influenced.
#I think we still haven’t fully assimilated what the new technological/cultural landscape that’s come fully into shape since the pandemic#means for novels and literature. And how best we can adapt to it.#original post#garbage day#ryan broderick

sure it was a perfect storm of a pressure cooker but i promise destiel was about destiel
#like 2020 was all building towards something. the isolation the pandemic the general uncertainty of day to day life#toss in the heated election and counting process. sure it *couldve* been anything else. but it *wasnt*.#it was destiel. that night there were even other rumours circulating about other shows. another show even had a huge reveal!#but the most widespread and known was destiel because of course it was! because thats what everyone was losing their mind over!#look at the statistics chart of a history of destiel interest over time! i promise the destiel interest is about destiel!#were people all equally invested? no! were some people memeing? yes! but by and large nov 5th became a juggernaut bc of destiel#as someone who literally was refreshing for election news and developed mania from seeing destiel go canon. it was about destiel#sure the intersection of destiel and election results was fun. but i posted way more destiel than election stuff. cause it was about destie#anyway. idk why im on a soapbox#char speaks#destielputinelection#destiel

i know robby & collins are like ultimate situationship but it’s so. interesting to think of them before they broke up.
bc i just imagine them as a very domestic couple. it’s giving robby is all but on the lease at heathers townhouse. he has his own drawer. he brings over clothes when he sleeps over and never brings them back home. there’s traces of robby everywhere at her place. when they aren’t working they spend quiet nights together inside her house. they both know they’ll end up in each others arms after a particularly hard shift.
but like they’re so intertwined that it’s genuinely painful when they break up because everything has to be reset back to factory settings. robbys car is full of heathers little things like her thermo that she brings into work that has a forever place in his cup holder, her rings that she never wears into work and the glove department has an array of crackers (and dramamine) because she gets motion sickness and likes to snack on things after a long shift. and he automatically turns the passenger seat warmer on everytime he gets in the car because heather hates the cold. still does it even after they break up.
heather comes off as neat person. she gives the type of person who’d want everything in a particular place and has a Sunday reset day. plays music all day while she cleans. but everything has its own specific place and when robby starts essentially living there there’s just little reminders of him everywhere and she doesn’t bother or mind to put them in their specific places. his glasses case on her nightstand, his favorite books left on her couch armrests or kitchen counters, his shoes left at the door and not on her shoe rack. and she stocks up on his favorite coffee brand so it’s always there whenever he’s over because yk. she only drinks tea (real)
but the container of coffee isn’t finished—not when they break up. but she leaves it in her cupboard. just in case.
idk man i just imagine them toeing the line of a real relationship. together just not with the title but still extremely domestic. apart of it because it happened so fast and they both carry their own baggage but it was safe and real because it was just a thing between them and only them. but when they have bad days and arguments—it’s bad. it sucks the air out of the room, leaves things stilted and frayed. and they never talk about it. because there’s something about talking about it that makes everything too real.
#the pitt#michael robinavitch#heather collins#rollins#slightly ooc just my opinions ig lol#i know in canon. that they probably just hooked up for a few months#and like fine whatever#but in my canon they just “no titles“ into the sun for like almost a year#from a one night stand to a weird domestic “you doing anything tn” to a “let’s go home“ to a “goodbye robby“#i like the idea of them having a one night stand while she worked in finance like years ago. and then them getting back tg when she started#at the pitt#but#i think of a heather who’s only in the middle of her intern year and struggling#bc of the pandemic bc of a man she’s struggling to save despite the fact that he comes home to her arms only#when on some days when things are too hard it’s hard to tell where they stand and she has her own baggage and things she won’t share…#MY SHAYLA!!! and very sad for robby too yk lol

im not going to lie i have an illuminati type theory that fanfiction has gotten so fucking bad recently as yet another consequence of the pandemic
#because like we all know how the pandemic caused fandom and a lot of more geeky things to become more mainstream#at least in the US#and thats why fandoms are so fucking shite now because everybody isnt weird and cant handle weird shkt#and also everybody stopped having reading comprehension too because of the sudden rapid uptick in content creation and such#like u guys already know what im talking about#theres a reason why i havent seen an actual meme in years#like im talking a real meme. have you seen anything even remotely close to what a meme was like before the pandemic?#its honestly a real shame because i feel like now saying meme feels kind of cringey but it was something genuinely uniting and a wonderful#cultural thing online back then but also maybe thats just my nostalgia coming in since i was a kid back then#but yeah i think as another consequence fanfiction has become significantly worse#because i dont know maybe im looking in the wrong places maybe its a natural development of my taste becoming#more refined#but i feel like its impossible to find good fanfiction these days#like hetalia ao3 has been notorious for sticking out as the only fandom ever that somehow has so much fanfiction and none of it is good#because even when i was in the oukibo trenches i found some good shit in there that id memorize like bible scriptures#but now it kinda feels like every fandoms ao3 is like the hetalia ao3#i thought it was just my taste refining further until i found one good fanfiction recently and IT LIKE#ITS NOT EVEN THAT GOOD. BUT YOU KNOW HOW THERES THAT TYPE OF FANFIC THAT IS JUST#COMPETENTLY WRITTEN AND THE CHARACTERS ARE IN CHARACTER#ITS NOTHING BEAUTIFUL OR SOMETHING YOUD BE LIKE OHHH THIS SHOULD BE A FINE LITERATURE PUBLISHED BOOK#BUT ITS GOOD#ITS A GOOD STORY THAT FEELS LIKE IT WAS WRITTEN BY SOMEONE WHO WATCHED THE SHOW#AND HAS ALL THE BASIC NEEDS TO BE A COMPELLING READ#LIKE DAMN I HAVENT READ SOMETHING LIKE THAT IN FOREVER#bc a lot of good fanfiction isnt the 400k novels that are intense and beautiful#i love those but there can only be so many of them#the majority are these fics that are fun as hell to read and sometimes even stretch to be like 50k words. but they're definately not#intense beautiful prose. it's a fun story made by a fan who wanted to explore an idea or make some scenarios#and i can never find that shit anymore#its always page after page of the most asinine shit with not even the general aura/sprinkle of anything pertaining to the og source in sight

ttt_snowed_in

#garry's mod#gmod#source engine#half life 2#deathmatch#remaster#hearted#i covered this map 2 years ago (to the day) in 2022! but it's so good that i wanted to give it another pass#the cozy winter atmosphere is still there and i still very much love this map#the gigantic piles of powder surrounding buses parked in the middle of the street. flanked by cars covered up to the wing mirrors in snow#there is a part of me that finds joy in the idea of being cataclysmically “snowed in” despite the logistical headaches that come with it#it's the part of me that also found joy in pandemic lockdowns that i had to downplay. in being *expected* to stay at home no matter what#i think i selfishly want more of that. which is why i still feel more excitement than annoyance in the preparation for a winter storm#it does not help that i worked customer service through the beginnings of the pandemic & never really had the experience people lamented#anyway! i'm a winter dude and i love this map a lot

[ Watching the Sky — 2019 - 2024 ]
#I took absolutely nothing away from the pandemic except a sort of boiling fascination with the sky#it lingers to this day. I spend so much time thinking about it.#the quality of brightness; the clouds; the position of the sun#I can tell you the story of my apartment in how the light slides through it over the course of the day#at different seasons. (winter sunlight comes in through a different window.)#I'm just fascinated by it.#wherever there is light

Thank you all so much for participating in my ‘help me post old stuff’-poll! To my surprise this was the winner, it’s probably the oldest one of the entire list and it’s just two sketchy studies of Joe and Nicky in historical garb (I can’t even find the ref photos anymore but I know I had some). It’s absolutely itching in my fingers to clean them up and add some light etc but I promised myself not to so here ya go!
#my art#tog#artists on tumblr#the old guard#joe al kaysani#nicky di genova#my sketches#p sure this is like. pre-pandemic. feels like another era#I’ll be posting some of the other almost winners over the next few days xoxo#OK NOT PRE PANDEMIC LMAO tog apparently came out in 2020. but it feels like it’s been decades ya know
