I'm sorry, but the notion of a demon being trapped inside a bonsai tree is so funny lol. I love how he was terrified at the very idea. He was sweating. The actor really leaned into his demon energy. <3

I really like John and Mary's chemistry together. Mary is kinda blind to the fact that John likes her... that reminds me of someone lol. This episode was good. They really did a good job with the design of the Boogeymanbag, looked really scary. Dean's narration <3 sigh. Yes, it's important to have friends and family and not do things (hunting) alone. I don't know, we're only three episodes in but this feels like therapy for me (and Dean). All those things that Dean learned through blood, sweat, and tears, it's all there in this show and how Dean thinks and narrates the intros. (It's there in how Jensen imagined the show too I think... it's almost like therapy for him too, or at least a denial of 15x20 and what it did not only for Dean, Cas, Sam, and the others but what it did for Supernatural, all fifteen seasons of it. The Akrida look cool. Bug aliens but if that's their queen... It seemed like she was capturing demons and monsters. I wonder why since so far we know that they want to destroy the world. Maybe they start with demons and end with humans. One final note... Again we have monsters that make our heroes go somewhere else. I know there are 13 episodes, but so far it's 3 out of 13 episodes dealing with Mary, John, Latika and Carlos going somewhere else, to another world, or dimension physically, or using some kind of portal to go elsewhere. We had the box that sucked in monsters to another place, the hole that lead the Supergang (what are we calling them?) down to MoL, monsters that pop up from the ground and have their hiding hole in some kind of pocket dimension of roots, and now children are getting teleported into bags. I'm sensing a theme of.... portals, teleportation, and other worlds. Might be a coincidence but... there are no accidents in Supernatural. the Winchesters. Ada and Carlos taking that man to the hospital to save him really made me smile. It reminded me of the early days of Supernatural and for me at least highlighted the hope in these hunters. That even the hosts are worth saving. They are worth saving and in the process, the hunters might save themselves. They'll not become jaded and forget why they hunt.

The ghostly specter of John's hopes and dreams in SPN 1x01:

Above Baby Sam's crib, we see John's symbolic hopes and dreams. The crib mobile is filled with the baseball items John adores.

Baseball is a consistent special interest of John's, from the djinn dream where he plays softball to his #SPNwin dream of becoming a minor league catcher.

In SPNwin, he's not yet the monstrous inverse of his "dreamer" self. He's still the thing that attracted Mary to him: the soldier who hasn't lost his ability to dream. He keeps believing, even when Mary, a child-raised-soldier, feels like she can't muster up the strength to. Aside// Mary is like Dean this way, with lines like: "it only ends one way... bloody." On the other hand, John doesn't start there. It takes lying, coercion, and manipulation to get John's world to shrink, for his path[s] to narrow to hunting.

Hope is "what" John is (until, of course, he isn't):

MARY: I don't know. He's sweet, kind. Even after the war, after everything, he still believes in happily ever after, you know? Supernatural, 4x13 In the Beginning

// Until Mary died, it seems his dreams were difficult to extinguish. His primary mode of being was hopefulness:

Note: As Mary and John discuss their dreams, we see behind Mary some Jack Kline types of motifs, "The Future," crowing roosters, sunflowers, and a rainbow.

JOHN: See, I, I wanted to be a catcher for the Kansas City Athletics. MARY (fatalistic) : My parents never let me dream like that. Being a kid who killed monsters was my only option.

JOHN (wistful): You know, when I was a kid, I, uhm... I made this list of all of these places I was gonna go to look for my dad. Kept it for years, crossing off destinations, adding more. Enough time goes by... all you see is a list, you know? MARY (angry): Are you saying I should stop looking for my dad? JOHN: I'm saying that once you find him and leave hunting for good, you're gonna need a new list. The Winchesters, 1x03 You're Lost, Little Girl

We're familiar with the Winchester gun, but in the 20s Winchester (yes, the same gun brand: Winchester Rifles and Firearms Co) made a short run of baseball gear, known specifically for its top-of-the-line catcher's gear. It was outlasted by brands by Rawlings, Wilson, and Spalding.

Vintage Winchester catcher gear goes for ~$700 on eBay.

//

Here, John, the ever-hopeful soldier who holds onto his dreams will lose those dreams. The dreams will go up in smoke, and he emerges from the flames like a demon possessed.

In the words of Lady Toni Bevell (12x21): "A mad slowly going mad, searching for revenge."

can't wait for adaar to come back to cassandra after a decade of being best friends with dorian 'thedas' nr 1 mortaboo necrostan' pavus and then hanging out with a bunch of mourn watchers through all of veilguard and embracing her like 'I love and support you more than anyone in this world and whatever you needed from them that you didn't get I'll wrestle dragons and fight gods to give you now, my love, my lighthouse, my safest place to stand. but I must regretfully report that your folks fucking ROCK actually I think dorian was right about this one'

[silverselfshippingchaos]

I have so many fucking thoughts about this line and how fucked up his sense of self is as a body double for another man

//Okay I've been trying to figure out why exactly Carolina sort of freaked out when Taash pinned her against the wall to be like "what are we" lol cause I was like girl you've jumped into bed way faster than this with people

and literally I think it's because in that moment, Taash was the one in control. At least, from Carolina's perspective. If she doesn't feel like she's in control of the situation she does not like it.

I <3 transmasc Wendy because it adds another thing to the kid who does not know how to handle anything being thrown into everything pile but instead of a thing like dead sister it's the prospect that he kind of likes having short hair and the idea of being a guy and it still makes him feel like the world is ending until suddenly the ppl around him are just like fine with it and everything is like cool actually and he melts over that too until finally he's just a normal baby trans person and can get back to being bad at coping with his other hashtag issues again

i just struggle to believe theres any ethical way to harvest meat. farm animal dying of old age? yeah. ok. sure. but farm animals aren't going to be perpetually dying of old age enough to fulfill the demand for their meats. you can make better and more convincing arguments to me for ethically harvesting eggs, wool and milk rather than meat.

No, husband!Nanami doesn't want kids right now - not when you're both at the height of your careers and your relationship. Not even when those older ladies at the office titter and show off their young ones to him.

No, husband!Nanami doesn't want kids right now when that lost little girl at the park comes up to the two of you. Hugging onto your dress while frantically calling you mama - waving her chubby fingers at the two of you when you finally hand her off to her mother.

No, husband!Nanami doesn't want kids right now no matter what your parents have been teasing him about. Just-so-happening to bring out those tucked-away baby albums of you whenever you both came over for dinner. And if he took a few photos of the adorable pictures then, well, doesn't mean he wants kids right now, right? Right?

No, husband!Nanami doesn't admit he wants kids - not even he's got you folded in half like a ragdoll beneath him. In the meanest mating press, cock so swollen and sloppy as he fucks his seed into you for the fifth time that night. Two fingers come to pool the cum dribbling out the side of your poor pussy, plugging the mess back in as he whispers, "My love...you're gonna give me a daughter, right?"

Unreachable

Wandering mind, full of creation

Meandering lines, lost in elation 

Each stroke, I broke a little inside

Each fate, I hate. My will defied

I painted this in Feb 2022 about what it's like to be an artist with repetitive strain injury. In 2008, When I was 18, I made my first comic titled 1000 Words, it was about an artist helping a little girl with a broken family similar to my own. It received such positive feedback that I changed my Environmental Science major at UCBerkeley to Art major. Ever since then, my goal has been to tell stories with my art. Stories that are important to me. My next comic, Knite, was about a boy who wants to put the stars back into the polluted skies of China, my homeland. The comic after that, Fisheye Placebo, is a cyberpunk story about living in the age of technology, about fighting censorship and propaganda.

Unfortunately, I never got to finish Knite nor Fisheye Placebo. By the time I was 24, I was drawing day and night with no regards to my health. Not only did I get repetitive strain injury in my drawing hand, but my entire health suffered. My roommates had to rush me to the ER after fainting one night. I remember looking at my swollen right hand, my fingers like sausages, not even able to hold a pen, and just cry.

I've gone to the doctors and physical therapists. One told me I have Lupus (I do not), and another told me to put ice on it. More recently, I met a friend who happens to an amazing physical therapist and he was able to help me regain a lot of use of my hand. At my worst, I could only draw an hour a week, but now I am able to draw 2 hours a day. My hand is unlikely to fully heal, but I'm so grateful to regain what I have.

To my fellow artists who suffers the same, please know you're not alone. I can't promise that it'll get better, and it's cliche to say don't give up, but I want to keep hoping that no matter what the world throws at us, we will continue to make art.
