Why cry when I can Smile?

[angelsdean]

mary and dean both thinking they wanted an apple pie life when they were young. thinking, dreaming, of fitting into the quintessential suburban happy family mold. both wanting so badly to get out of hunting, to get out from under their fathers' thumbs, to settle somewhere quiet and have a family. both running toward white picket fences. john, the goody-two-shoes smiling all american boy next door. he's back from the war and ready to settle down. lisa, the smiling single mom who opens her door to the broken soldier and folds him into her family. both mary and dean finding themselves restless in these dollhouse-homes. both of them realizing they're not cut out for normal and hunting will never bleed out of their veins. both of them sneaking around, living double lives, because they'll never be able to quit so long as there's still people who need protecting and saving. saving people, saving people, saving people. it's their family business, his and mary's. both of them, later in life, finding new ways to be, accepting who they are, what they are. getting second chances at love and life and family. dean, declaring proudly, that he has a family. family looking different from those young idealistic fantasies. them sending lebanon john back because the dream of the perfect little nuclear family isn't worth losing what they have now, isn't worth losing what's real.

Don - careful enough to leave zero physical evidence of having an affair for his wife to find trashing the house looking, careless enough to literally have a woman hear second- or third-hand how much of a fuckboy he is and hit him up about it.

My little sister is on her high school golf team, which is already really funny because she does not have the vibes or personality you would expect of a golfer, but she the other day she sent me a picture of her senior student athlete poster and the energy is so incredible. It's got her in her little polo shirt and glove and everything except instead of coming across as cute suburban golf girl she looks more like the sullen frontwoman of a sapphic grunge band.

Please picture a tiny Korean girl with half her hair dyed hot pink, a bunch of ear and nose piercings, eyebrows filled in with sharp red and black liner and a slit shaved into one of them, and a deeply unimpressed expression on her face, standing there in a golf uniform with a club slung over her shoulder looking more like she's about to hit you with it than she is a golf ball.

Listen, I wouldn't normally cite Cosmo as support for an argument, but I can't think of anything that sums up the dangers of the stay-at-home girlfriend/tradwife nonsense like this quote:

“If you give a man the power to feed you, he also has the power to starve you.”

reading my own oc lore and being gagged as if i didnt write it

okay but what obscure music do you listen to 🤔🤔🤔 i’m curious (it’s okay if ur gatekeeping LOL i understand. one of my fav obscure bands is REDACTED so i get it 🩷)

the most obscure and my FAVVVVVV ARTIST EVER is sopor aeternus & the ensemble of shadows 😄 idk her music is described on google as “neoclassical dark wave”… like idek what that means…….. also i tried listening to other music in that genre and i hate it all its literally only her 💀

also my music may not be completely obscure, but it’s like definitely a weird combination??? like i go from glee covers to goth music to new wave to gangsta rap.. i found that the only common factor in the songs i like is that i need it to change every 5 seconds whether it’s the beat of the song or the instrumentals or the way the person is singing i need it FUNKY!!!!!

Straight people’s reactions to gay people asking them not to go to gay clubs is exactly why gay people don’t want straight people in gay clubs
