John sold his soul. A lot. But almost as often, he sold his first born son's soul.
Now, that sounds bad on paper, but if John was being honest with himself, he was never going to have a kid. It felt unimaginably cruel to burden a baby with the weight of having John Constantine as a father. So, what better deal than to sell something that would never exist?
One thing he didn't take into account, was that he was a bloody idiot and the universe hates him.
John met Danny when he was still working independently in Amity Park. They worked together on a couple of cases in and around Amity, the kid was bright despite what his grades would leave you to believe.
It was John that brought up the idea of joining the JLD to Danny, and it was John that submitted a personal recommendation once Danny showed interest.
John helped Danny through moving away from his haunt, he offered the kid a couch to crash on that slowly turned into a bed, and he was never seen at a JLD meeting without a ghostly shadow.
Everything felt perfect, and that honestly should have been John's first red flag.
Now, he was preparing to take a trip down to Hell, because John never bothered to check if those contracts specified blood.
Ah! Allies in the Pancake wars! I thank you for your service.
If you too would like to be a pancake comrade, here is a simple pancake recipe.
They may not be the fluffiest, or the tastiest, but all pancakes bring joy and can be eating with all manner of things and they are very cheap to make. Have you made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a pancake? It's delicious!
Things you need:
1 Cup Milk (oat, soy, almond, cow, etc)
1 Tablespoon vinegar (Apple cider, or whatever you have, even lemon or lime juice will work)
1 Teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
1 Cup Flour
2 Tablespoons Sugar (or some kind of sweetener)
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
some oil (or butter) for the pan
toppings:
maple syrup, peanut butter, jam, honey, agave, chocolate sauce, whatever you want to put on your little edible plate!
You will also need measuring cups and spoons, a bowl, a spoon, a stove, a pan, something to flip the pancakes with and a plate.
-I start with a 2 cup Pyrex measuring cup (works great because it has a spout to pour) I pour 1 cup of oatmilk into the measuring cup (or bowl) and add the vinegar (or citrus juice) and the vanilla extract. This is basically making an acidic "butter milk) that will interact with the baking soda to give the pancakes leavening.
-while that is sitting, collect all the other ingredients and measure them out.
-Then add the rest of the ingredients EXCEPT for the oil/butter and toppings) Stir it all together until it is smooth.
-turn on your burner to medium and place your pan on the stove. Melt the butter or oil in the pan.
-you will know the pan is hot enough when you can flick a tiny bit of water and the water skitters across and evaporates
-Here's the tricky business, the first pancakes is rarely perfect, and that's okay! It is still tasty! Pour a CD/DVD size amount into the pan, not too big or it will be hard to flip.
-Watch closely as one side starts to cook. You will start to see bubbles form in the batter, check the sides as they firm up and you can check the underside to make sure it is not burning.
-The pancake is ready to flip when the bubbles are mostly all popped and then you can flip it over and check on it until it is done.
-remove from the pan to a plate and top with whatever you wants, feel free to double or triple the recipe. I find this recipes makes 2 good sized pancakes.

I wonder what People Who Really Like Trains liked best before trains. the first sights of the first trains in history must’ve hit those brains like a galaxy going off.
okay so unnecessary background but i was having a conversation with my friend group about nosebleeds right. and one of them said she'd never had one in her life and that genuinely shocked me but when i polled it close to HALF of them never did??? and i was blindsided because i'd seriously assumed it was a universal experience. a quick google search of the statistics around this corroborated what they said too. so like
Apparently 2026 has already begun to arrive. We need to hold the line people. We need to stand our ground. We CANNOT just roll over and allow it to become 2026.
Honestly, I feel like I'm old and mature enough these days that I don't need to know what the kids' new funny number is supposed to mean. Hell, when I was a child, I wasn't well-read enough to understand why 42 was a funny number, and I just shrugged and moved on. And, as we all remember from our multiplication tables, 42 is just six se
we poke fun at obi-wan for saying "sith lords are our specialty" and then getting his ass kicked by dooku, but in fairness, he was at the time the only person in living memory to have actually killed a sith. he showed remarkable humility honestly.
"The average person completes 1 New Years Resolution" stat is skewed by Resolutions georg who completes an average 10,000 New Years Resolutions every night
Resolutions georg is an outlier and should not have been counted
