Still beautiful. Still Dean Winchester.

Meanwhile Steve is stressed about his girlfriend’s waning interest in him when suddenly, this kid with no teeth and no collarbones is following him around and asking him to move in with him and his mom and, “Dude, what the hell? I’m not going to date your mom.”

“Ew, I don’t want you to date my mom!” Dustin says and gags. “I want you to be my brother.”

The first time Steve babysits Will, he seems extremely upset when Steve gets there. Steve asks what's wrong and Will tells him all about the bullies and the slurs they call him and how it effects him. Steve has an 'oh shit the people I hang around with are the same as the people who have made this kid so sad' moment and the guilt he feels for being a bystander is suffocating. He decides then that he's not going to let his friends behave like that next time.

Next time happens to be the next day at school when he catches them shoving Eddie Munson into the lockers and hurling slurs at him. All he sees is Will's devastated little face. Then Tommy H starts to raise a fist and Eddie is flinching away and before Steve even knows what his body is doing he's in front of the guy, catching hold of tommy's wrist and telling him to quit being an asshole.

Tommy has a bit of an arguement with Steve but nothing serious (yet), just like a 'why do you suddenly have a problem with this now? Do you think you're better than us all of a sudden because you have a job taking care of snotty nosed brats?' kind of thing.

He checks if Eddie's ok, Eddie thanks him and they all go about their day as usual. No further interactions.

Steve starts trying to get the kids to agree to let him teach them how to fight because he arrives to find them with bruises from bullies more times than he's comfortable with. He might have to actually learn defensive moves himself first because he usually tends to just take the hits and keep swinging but they don't need to know that. The kids eventually concede that they will let him teach them some self defense if he plays D&D with them, mainly because they think Steve will refuse.

They're trying to call his bluff and he knows it so he agrees and they set up a system where he plays D&D with them once a week and they learn self defense from him once a week. He soon finds that actually D&D can be fun for a nerd game and he starts picking up on terminology.

So one day when Eddie is walking past him in the hallway, he spots a dice keychain on his backpack and without even thinking about it he makes an outloud observation.

"Oh, hey! That's a D20!"

“Yeah, sure,” Dustin rolls his eyes. “Sure, your mysterious boyfriend that is always conveniently busy and definitely real is the lead guitarist of my favorite band and you never mentioned it.”

“I told you he was in a band, I didn’t know they were pop - what do you mean ‘definitely real?’ He is real!

“Sure,” Dustin says. “You’ve been dating for months and no one has ever met him. Sure.”

“Everyone thought Susie was fake.”

“Susie is-“

They mutually agreed to stop arguing about it and maybe even forget the conversation happened, and then one day, Dustin bikes over to Steve’s.

He used his key, lets himself in, and sitting in his underwear on the kitchen counter is - “Eddie Munson? That’s Eddie Munson.”

When I was little I always got grossed out by kissing scenes in romantic comedies, I thought it was just about the kissing "cause kids find those gross"

But then I realized that I never felt that way watching "the addams family"

Each time Gomez and Morticia kissed i didn't mind at all

This is how I realized that the issue was the build up to the kiss and not the kiss itself

And i bet a lot of people can relate

Furthermore, one of the hard requirements for a Lego brick is that it must be compatible with any other Lego brick. If I buy a set today and pull a set from the 1980s? Those bricks would fit together perfectly. This requires a huge amount of precision engineering and controls on manufacturing quality. (I can’t remember the source, but I’ve at least heard that once the brick molds wear to a certain point, they’re pulled from the line and either melted down or turned into construction material for Lego HQ. Point being, no one is getting their hands on a worn Lego mold)

Recycled and non-petroleum plastics are different from other plastic. The chemistry is different. The timing and process to use them is different. This has been a reason why more companies haven’t moved to them, because there’s a drop in quality for material (so they claim).

What Lego just did is completely obliterate that argument. The corporation with some of the strictest quality control requirements for plastic just kicked the basic foundation of the “bad quality” argument out from under it, because if they feel confident enough to guarantee the same experience as using a brick from over 40 years ago, if they are confident enough that they can meet their own metrics at a huge industrial scale….

David Tennant says trans rights

(sorry it’s on an HP photo, it’s sort of an exorcism)

David: Trans rights!

Me: oh, cool

Me, internally: Underneath these stairs, I hear the sneers and feel glares of my cousin, my uncle and my aunt. I can't believe how cruel they are and it stings my lighting scar to know that they'll never ever give me what I want.
