It’s extremely fucked up that some ppl try to make you feel stupid and immature for hoping for a better world. You say you want world peace and mfs think you need a pacifier; dawg, I just don’t want ppl dying from violence. This idea that ppl simply must die as casualties of war is misanthropic to say the least.

Everything used to be 20 dollars and now that I finally have 20 dollars everything is now 200 dollars

the symbolism of billionaires willingly paying some greedy tech bro 250k to go sit in his backyard shed built tin-can submarine to find a sunk mass grave site of over a thousand people (many whom died solely due to being poor or third class passengers) only to become missing and likely lost at sea themselves is the type of karma you usually never get to see play out so perfectly

It coinciding with the creation of a new oceanic mass grave off the coast of Greece, due to cultural hatred of The Poor, certainly makes it a stark illustration of exactly what has gone awry in our society: excessive adulation of wealth.

"Love/sex is what makes us human" Wrong. It's the obsession with rectangles. look around you and count the number of rectangles you see.

we seriously need to stop conceding to the personhood trap when it comes to abortion rights. is a fetus a person? thats a spiritual question. i dont care about the answer. should another person dictate what someone can do with their body? simple answer: no.

The thing is, a lot of people confuse Eddie giving Buck space to make the choice to come to him if he needs it with Eddie being bad at communication. There's a reason why Buck hides at Eddie's place after the lightning. There's a reason why Buck wordlessly hands Eddie a beer after his breakup. Yes, Eddie needs to be better at accepting that he can want things, but after his breakdown, he did get better at talking about his struggles before he reaches a breaking point. Hell, we even see him opening up to Brad about his struggles with Chris. He talks to Buck AND Bobby about the problems with Marisol. He chose to go to confession. He chose to talk to Father Brian at the juice shop once he hit the right button. Buck had to give him one 🤨 look, and he was spilling his guts about Kim. Buck asked one question, and he was talking about moving to Texas because he wasn't hiding from Buck because he wanted to hide, it was because the idea was new, and Buck walked into it while it was fresh. He was talking to Buck all throughout the move. He was calling at every minor inconvenience. He talked to henren about the job in El Paso and not getting through to Buck. Buck is the one who is consistently bad at starting a conversation because he feels things too intensely all at once, and he needs time to bring himself down before he can actually talk. And Eddie knows when he needs to poke at Buck until he explodes and they can move on, or when he needs to let Buck do his thing and come to him when he's ready. It's why he's not on Maddie's list to check on Buck after the lightning. It's why he doesn't push Buck to talk to him after the basketball. And it's also why he sends Buck away after he starts sabotaging the house showings. Because he's not mad at Buck when he gets to the station. He only escalates when Buck escalates. When Buck tells everyone something he asked to be kept a secret. When Buck tells him he doesn't need him. Because obviously, he's not perfect, and his feelings are getting hurt, too, and he can be brutal when he's hurt. But even then, he's telling Buck to be angry if he needs to. And in 817, he escalates because Buck can be self-centered in his insistence on not being a burden. Seriously, how is Buck taking Eddie's guilt for not being there and hearing it as Eddie accusing him of not trying hard enough to save Bobby, not Buck making it about himself? That conversation does make Eddie realize that thing Buck needs at that moment is not him, so he gives Buck family to see if he can help Buck bring himself down. He tries. Every single line we use in this god forsaken site came out of Eddie's mouth. And most of the time for the past few seasons, Buck is the one not being honest, not Eddie. So much so that they always resolve things the second Buck settles enough to have a conversation that's not gonna be reactive. Because Eddie is physically unable to hold things against Buck once Buck explains what's happening. Ever since the "you can have my back any day" Eddie has been letting Buck take the lead while letting him know the option is there. I don't know why is it such a surprise when he lets Buck do what he needs instead of forcing him into something he's not ready.

always gets my hackles up when people talk about the EVIL INVADING FOREIGN TARGARYEN DYNASTY and how westeros just needs to retvrn to the pure unblemished past free from subjugation.... with each of the seven kingdoms having their rightful monarch LOL ok alright

I really like motherhood as a character trait and symbol in fiction because it's a position of power afforded to women that's both aligned with and central to their gender role rather than being contrary to it, and it can reveal a lot about how a character reacts to being given almost total control, heavy responsibilities, and very little external accountability or support, which I think is a very rich scenario and character type to explore. in my mind the role of mother is closer to captain than to wife. but, unfortunately for me, there is the rest of the world to contend with, and most other people are trying to be Normal about motherhood rather than Weird about it on purpose.
