you love simon. truly. playing games with him in your free time was your favorite pastime, especially when you knew he was getting deployed and wouldn’t have the chance to join you for an extended leave. there was only one tiny issue.
the man is competitive. no matter the game, no matter if you were a team or against one another, he’s slipping you teasing comments that you’re 90% aren’t fully teasing and actually hold a bit of honesty.
some of the games he plays with you weren’t supposed to be competitive. some are even simple customization games that you had to beg him to play with you so you could create each other’s characters. now that he is playing them, you have moments of restraint to not shove his head into the screen.
“your colors don’t match the theme, lovie.”
“shut up, simon.”
“yes ma’am.”
“i think you need to spend more time in an aim training.”
“are you saying my aim is bad, simon?”
“no, ma’am.”
“how many times are you going to miss the damn jump?”
“i’ll do it again if you don’t shut up, simon.”
“you’re doing amazing, lovie, keep it up.”
it was utterly infuriating. but when the times came for his long deployments and the house was quiet, no snarky quips being thrown from beside you on the couch, you longed for it.
to hear him trash your aim, or tease you for not being as good as him — it may seem like he’s mean to you from an outsider’s perspective, but to you, it’s his love language, and you desperately miss it.
so, you’ll take whatever tease he throws. you know it’s his way of saying ‘i love you’, even if you want to rage quit every time.

literally nothing is funnier to me than the idea of el telling hopper that she and mike broke up and him being like “oh. sorry kid. a great decision tbh, but sorry” and then throwing himself a little party, and then like a month later will’s like “dad meet my boyfriend” and hopper just sits down and takes several very deep breaths because mike wheeler is somehow his future son in law again what the fuck

I've seen the last '"g-d made you perfect" that I can handle, and it's led me to a realization about how I think of g-d.
I don't think we were made perfect. We were made human. And, if I'm honest, the only perfection in my mind is g-d, and that sense of perfection is what differentiates humans from g-d. If humans were as perfectly-made as g-d, I for one wouldn't see the point in following, believing, trusting, caring for, or loving g-d.
I guess for me, I see the ways in which humans alter the Way We Were Created that I really don't think it's right to speculate as to if there's a limit to altering our abilities or bodies. For instance, as a trans person, I've definitely been inundated with this idea that because g-d made my body "perfect" that I shouldn't alter it ever, but isn't that a dangerous precedent? Is it really so, that our bodies are magically made perfect, as g-d that to even tamper with the idea of change would be the same as cursing g-d? I really don't think that's compelling.
I love thinking about just how much g-d is placed into people, but I don't think it warrants restricting the ability to learn, create, grow, or change. Thank g-d that He created the ability to change!

you know what the blood gulch chronicles are so fucking funny. the first few episodes is just a bunch of idiots shit talking. absolute useless nonsense.
but its not random rubbish being thrown around. the conservations, as ridiculouse as they are, have a flow. You can actually follow how you got from a to q, even if just looking at a nd q seperately is like, how the fuck did that happen. every comment bounces off of a previous one.
red team trying to name M12 LRV. its just gold. the bickering. simmons being the one not believing that pumas are a real animal. how they keep roasting grif for 'making up animals'.
the way the lines are delivered. it's hilarious.

Riz: I can’t argue with my mom about anything, every time I try to she just says "Shut up, I taught you to use a spoon." How do you even respond to that!

i don't think they like or hate each other canonically. i just think they're on a mutual judgmental basis if that makes sense. like, they think the other is weird af, but they're not gonna say it aloud because they don't have beef or anything. they'll judge both one another and the other contestants in silence At The Same Time Almost Every Time because that's The Vibe. i don't even think they know each other's names. they don't need to know either. The Vibes carry

my mom might not entirely get the concept of aroace even though she is one but at least she got the spirit! :D
From the last post about me coming out to my mom about me being aroace, she also found out she was aroace.
As she had a "eh whatever" or "oh ok, moving on" kinda reaction. I think she hasn't fully rapped around the whole concept of aroace.
My mom's aroace-ness is not aroace-ing cuz I think she forgets when she is aroace lol
I find it funny cuz whenever it comes out that in our conversation I just tease her about us being the same.
This is the conversation I had after it really sunk in that me and my mom were aroace XD
Me: mom I just realized that you're aroace and I'M aroace...do you what that means??
Mom: no? What does that mean?
Me: it's mean the your genes have been passed down to me cuz we both the same-*laughing*
Mom:*slight giggling* I don't think that's how genes works susi.
Me: well what are the chances that us both are aroace? It sounds silly to me *still laughing*
Me: but it's makes me happy that at least someone from the family understands me.
Me: aren't you glad to know who you are mom XD
Mom: *rolling eyes* ya ya sure I am
I personally think she's like that cuz she is a layed back person and can be an air head sometimes and also can't read the room so she mind come of as rude sometimes.
a short wholesome moment with my mom cuz I love her verryyy much ♡\( ̄▽ ̄)/♡
