Come home to my heart

Favorite Clex Scene for @clarkslex

because you bullied us out of the cool name

every joke you guys make about 2020 kids a Tommy goes back into the closet, every comment you make about neopronouns a kid named Bug who uses Xe/He/It/Pog switches to He/They Milo and never feels comfortable, every joke you make about the freaks from from 2020 and focus on them being Theyfab trenders instead of the fucked up things they did a teenage boy who was about to call himself Swamp online dies

Truth is a god in the way that gravity or magnetism is a god. He's just a manifested force of nature. He's sapient on some level, sure, which is a neat trick, but we managed to make meat think and we're not extraordinarily special about it either. He didn't invent humans and he didn't spawn the universe the way that Rose would have expected the god of her religion to have done; he has minimal to no interest in the day to day lives of any creature and only intervenes when someone actively wanders into his grip of influence. He's not a Capital-G God. Truth is to matter what fire is to flammable objects. He's a metaphorical (and perhaps even allegorical) chemical reaction.

Ed isn't an atheist because he saw god and cussed him out irl; Ed's an atheist because he doesn't believe that the brute force of Truth qualifies as a god. Quite frankly, I think that's a hell of a lot ballsier and a much more complete understanding of the situation. This perspective insulates him against idolizing the Truth as an ultimate divine force and makes Truth something that can be reasoned around or through, rather than with, which would never have worked.

Word already had a word count?! That WORKED?
