Hell, they even cover the devastating heaviness of MASS SHOOTINGS without censoring or watering anything down.

They've been doing this for YEARS, and it's ALWAYS handled with dignity, respect, seriousness, understanding, and love.

This clip is from 1968 and discussed assassination after Bobby Kennedy died.

Cat: Arr-rar! (weird chirp noise)

Cat: [weird mechanical-sounding hiss]

Cat, while licking finger, in a very gravelly voice: Ah mlem-a-mlem-a-mlem-mlem-a-mlem-a-mlem… mrowr rowrrr…

Person holding camera: I love you.

I think Grace is the type of teacher to let his students make a class playlist. He plays them when his students are working on assignments or activities.

His favorite part is hearing someone shout in excitement when their song plays.

This is actually the only way that he listens to new music. He even listens to the playlists outside of class, rotating between each period’s playlist. They might be the only playlists he listens to honestly.

The only playlists Grace has on his Spotify are just variations of “Period #’s Playlist [Year]”. Maybe he lets each period name them.

His Spotify wrapped is all over the place. A mixture of rap, hip-hop, anime openings, pop, indie and a bunch of other things.

Once a student put a heavy metal song into their playlist and it scared everyone when it started blasting out loud. He was about to take it off the playlist but the class begged him to keep it. They turned it into a game of Russian roulette. Once in a while when the song starts playing they cheer and then get back to work.

this^ fucking ask

somehow makes the app freeze

^cannot interact with any on screen buttons past this point, i have to force close the app

and does THIS to the website

what the fuck

how did they do this

how do i contact support to fix this

and the post begins

because otherwise it gets kind of visually confusing to parse, which is annoying to some folks, including me

GRANTED not everybody uses the same theme or even the same update. you might have noticed my version of tumblr is earlier than yours (I don't like the new button setup)

but still, it's just about being polite

Simon's already turned into the blood tree by the time the Eridians discover AT-5. They bring back what they think is a man, and everyone is all excited thinking Grace is about to have a companion and, y'know, the pretty common opening to most Bloodymary fics out there.

The twist?

That's not fucking Simon.

Well, that's not Simon alive.

It's the equivalent of a still-life (iykyk). It's something the ocean constructed out of blood and whatever chunks of flesh were leftover from the sub exploding to try and remember Simon for itself with. Something not-quite nerve ghost, not-quite man, and not-quite monster. It's a man yet mangled. It's a monster yet never attacks. It's a phantom yet touches. Half-measured. A culmination of things Simon has always been scared of.

It's the shadowman.

The Eridians bring back the fucking shadowman, and now Grace has to figure out what to do with it, if he can pry pieces of Simon out of its cold dead gaze, if he can learn about AT-5 through its chemistry, if he can show it enough care that it starts looking more man than creature, and, it's all morbid, so morbid, but Grace can't stop obsessing over how this thing even exists, because it's inherently paranormal, which shouldn't exist.

Oh, and I like to think it parrot-mimics things Simon has said in the past from time-to-time in the corner. Once in a blue moon, when it really wants to be noticed, just to startle the fuck out of Grace.

And the Eridians are spending a lot of their resources investigating the blood tree while they're at it. The "real" Simon is chilling out on AT-5 as a glorious, massive, flourishing organism that the science team is obsessing over. He's getting lots of attention over there.
