[modernmusess]

all these new 911 interviews keep saying theo is going to bring buck and eddie closer in s10. my brother in christ the only possible way for them to get any closer is to be inside one another

[tweetsongs]

man probie buck is so precious to me. this half-feral kid who's overly competent at some things (ready for calls in any weather, can identify every insect species native to LA and then some, drives the rig at the end of long shifts when everyone else is dead on their feet) and sometimes slinks into the loft with wide eyes asking if someone can explain what their health benefits are and what star trek is and if you can put your address on record if you technically haven't signed a lease but a guy you met at the bar when you first came to LA totally said that you could crash at his bros' place for as long as you want. this kid who looks at all of you like you're the coolest people ever and who deflects any question about himself into getting your life story somehow and gets his first ever credit card four months into his placement and insists on getting the entire station coffee on him, so proud of himself. who lives and breathes this job but also doesn't seem to have any concept of what it takes to actually stay here, who gets his shield with a kind of startled delight, like he never actually thought he'd make it.

[tweetsongs]

"what do you mean, you don't have a credit card?"

buck pouts as chim and hen both look at him incredulously. chim is leaning back in his seat with a smirk already painting over his face, all easy teasing. hen has that mix of fond exasperation and worry that she sometimes gets around him, the one that bobby shares, sometimes. it's weird, being worried about. he hasn't really had anyone worry about him this much since maddie, and he hasn't decided if he likes it yet. sometimes, it's nice. other times, it feels like ants crawling under his skin.

right now, he shrugs. "i just never needed one, i guess."

hen tilts her head. "how the hell did you manage to get to LA without a credit card?" she asks.

buck looks at her for a moment, figuring out if she's actually asking. she's not, probably. most people aren't.

"how the hell are you living in LA without a credit card?" chim asks, which is a question that he probably does mean. "you can't get a fuckin' closet around here without having to show your credit score."

buck shrugs again, not really knowing what they're expecting. "derek said it was fine," he says. "like, it's not like i signed anything."

that gets him more incredulous looks. "you didn't sign-" chim's smirk has been replaced by something more concerned, which buck decides he does not like. "buck. where the hell are you even living?"

"derek's couch," the duh is implicit.

"his couch?"

"it's fine, it's a pullout."

hen has taken her glasses off, and buck watches her and chim share a Look with something uncomfortable churning in his stomach. they look at him like he's a kid, and he doesn't know how to tell them that it's not like he doesn't know that you're supposed to rent a proper place, with a contract and stuff, in theory. it's just that-- well. he didn't know if he was gonna make it through the academy, and what's the point of signing a lease when you might just blow off into the next state in a few weeks anyways?

he doesn't say that, because that would be a bummer. he used to think that his parents' whole don't complain so much, evan and why do you insist on being so negative stuff was bullshit, but he found out pretty quickly on the road that they were actually right -- nobody likes a bummer.

instead, he just tilts his chair back, bounces his knee a little. "do i need a credit card?" he asks.

chim looks like he's about to make another snarky remark, but hen thinks about it seriously, which is why she's buck's favorite. "i think it's a good idea, buckaroo," she says, earnestly enough that buck takes her seriously. "always a good idea to build up your credit score as early as you can, if you ever want to rent somewhere, or make a big purchase."

"not that you're gonna get an actual landlord not named derek to accept any applications anytime soon," chim adds, all casual teasing again. "you know, with your baby credit score and your probie salary. better hope your boy doesn't kick you off his couch."

buck flutters his eyelashes at him. "are you saying that you wouldn't let me crash on your couch, howard?" he asks, sugar sweet. chimney kicks the legs of his chair, and buck yelps and windmills to grab the edge of the table, kicking at chimney's ankle as he does.

"if either of you hits me, i'm going to tell bobby," hen threatens.

"what did you want to tell me?" bobby asks, coming out of his office. chimney and buck both freeze, tilting their chairs down to sit like adults. bobby looks over the three of them, raises an eyebrow. buck makes his eyes as big as possible.

"nothing, cap," all of them say in unison, chim half-snickering, hen hiding a smile beneath a palm, buck blinking innocently at him.

bobby stares at them for another moment, but before he can say anything, the alarms ring. they blink at him, he blinks back, sighs, then starts towards the rig.

buck follows, reveling in the sound of footsteps around him, all of them in unison. as he pulls on his turnouts and shoves himself into the engine, he turns to chim and hen.

"hey," he says a little hesitantly, as the engine begins to shake and move out of the station. "if i bring my stuff..."

chimney bumps their shoulders together. hen pats his knee.

"sure, probie," chim says, easy as anything, easier than anything buck's asked for, in a while. "we can help you get baby's first credit card."

[buckleysibz]

chimney put so much effort in getting henren together and keeping them together that i think hen and karen always pull one flower out of the boquets they gift each other for their anniversaries and give it to chim. it was a joke the first time but then it because a tradition.

Master's Application Fund

For two years, war interrupted my education and future plans.

Despite everything, I completed my Bachelor's degree in Computer Systems Engineering and continued supporting students through educational initiatives in Gaza.

Today, I am taking the first step toward my Master's degree.

🎯 Goal: $300 ⏳ Deadline: 6 Days

This amount will help cover university application fees and the first steps toward graduate studies.

Missing these deadlines could mean postponing my dream for another year.

Fundraiser || PayPal || Vetting 1 || Vetting 2

If you cannot donate, please share this post.

Every dollar brings me closer to continuing my education and helping others through it.

[ma7moudgaza2]

There are only 3 days left to register for graduate studies at the university, and I haven't even raised $50 yet!

$40/$300

[ma7moudgaza2]

128$/300$

We are close !!!

[ma7moudgaza2]

There are only two days left to register for graduate studies at the university, and I still need an additional $170 to register. It's a simple goal, and I'm trying to achieve it today: to give a student from Gaza the opportunity to register for graduate studies and secure my future!

[ma7moudgaza2]

Today is the last day to achieve this goal of paying the seat reservation fee for my graduate studies. I'm afraid that $170 will prevent me from reserving my seat!!

[ma7moudgaza2]

138$ / 300$

A few hours separate me from registering for a master’s degree 😭😭😭😭

[ma7moudgaza2]

I have 6 hours left to secure my place for the Master's program, and I haven't been able to raise the required amount of $300. I've only managed to collect $150, which means half the amount has been raised, and I'm now struggling to get the other half!

150$ / 300$

So there's a woman, and she's taken her family to a park on a beautiful summer afternoon, and she's got her little picnic area all set up, ready to call her kids over for some snacks, and maybe she's got a dog too, why not.

And a little boy comes up to her and hands her a Capri Sun and is all "can you help me I can't get to the juice."

And she's all, "Of course, sweetheart, but also who are you here with? Let's maybe make sure you haven't wandered off to talk to strangers, okay?"

And the boy points and, oh, yep, okay, that man seems to have gotten his foot caught in the monkey bars and is stuck upside down. (It is okay, there is another man climbing up to try and help him and also a teenager who's filming the whole thing, so.)

So she pops that little straw into the foil like the pro she is and she's all "Here you go. Why don't you sit here with me until your dad has his feet back on the ground, okay?"

And the boy plops down next to her and takes a long sip of juice an then says, "That's not my dad."

And she says, "Oh?" as her brain flips through uncle, step-dad, family friend, muuuuch older brother.

And the boy, who has had things explained to him many different times in many different ways, so never quite knows the right words he's supposed to use, says, "I'm never going to see my dad again."

And the woman, a little paler, a little higher pitched, says, "Oh?"

And the boy, who is making moves to help himself to some of the orange slices she just put out, says, "Yeah, Buck took me when our car got smashed up, so I live with him now."

And the woman, who has the vague concept in her mind of seeing an amber alert a few days ago that she did not actually read, slowly reaches for her phone as she says, "Oh???"

---

Meanwhile, at dispatch, Josh, cheeks aching with how hard he's trying to to laugh, calls out, "Hey, Maddie, you might want to jump onto this call...!"

[zinnydark]

"No, ma'am, I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm not taking this seriously. I assure you I'm taking it very seriously. In fact, I'm having them send out a detective to meet you all. Her name is Athena Grant..."

something that I feel like is missing from fandom nowadays is the idea that you dont have to have a unified, chronologically/tonally consistent interpretation of your favorite work. your fics dont have to fit within the same version of canon, even if theyre all canon-compliant on their own. your headcanons can contradict each other. be a multishipper. write metas that take two totally different interpretations of the same plot point. write a character as a villain and then write them as the hero next time. write a character as a lesbian and then write them as straight next time! engage in hypotheticals and drop them when you get bored! make up the rules as you go!! have fun with it!!!

[emziess]

Chimney called me. 9-1-1, S09E17

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

I just came across two "authors" that have written fics Im interested in.. and I rigured out they used ai for the whole thing

How should I deal with blogs like that? Do I report them? Block them? Should I do anything at all?

Because I commented on the first fic asking if its ai and they blocked me so I cant even protect anyone else from reading that because I forgot their name

And on the second fic I commented I asked the same thing and they suddenly deleted all of their post but they had a full ass masterlist

Is asking about ai an insult now? Cuz i dont want to blame this people out of the blue Im asking, but they are quicker to get offended then to defending "their" work..

Am I the crazy one??

can I be honest? you are in the wrong here. I stand with the two authors, and I’m glad they blocked you.

you said you “asked if their works are ai” which means the authors did not specifically said their works were ai-generated, meaning you guessed, based on vibes, and then you threw an accusation at them. I have already talked about why it’s rude, entitled and insulting for someone to ask a writer if their works are ai-generated here, here and here.

and I have said time and time again that “ai witch hunt, speculation and accusations harm the writing community as much as ai does, if not more”.

so whether or not you know it, you are harming the writing community — just like ai does, if not more — by going around asking random writers if their works are ai, as if writers owe you anything (fun fact: they do NOT owe you anything).

every “ai telltale” is something human writers write. what do you think ai was trained on? what do you think it was trained to mimic?

“how do I deal with this?” by curating your own internet experience. block them if that’s what you want (you can block anybody for any reason). it’s not your problem or your business how a writer writes, whether or not they use ai.

no, I am not a fan of ai, but I can accept that if someone chooses to let ai write everything for them, then that is their business. do I agree with them? no. will I harass them for it? no. will I call them out? no. what they do is literally none of my business.

also no, it’s not your job or your business to “protect anyone from reading their works”. you are not their parent. if someone reads their works and if they think it’s ai, then they can make their own decision on whether or not they will continue reading it.

if you think their works are ai, you can choose not to read them. you can block them if that’s what you want. but

1. writers do NOT owe you anything

2. yes, it’s absolutely valid for a writer to NOT want to be asked if their works are ai — them deleting their works after you asked them if their work is ai is NOT proof that they used ai. they could very well be devastated that something they worked so hard on was accused of being something it’s not, and if that’s the case then you should be ashamed of yourself. (if they did use ai then that’s still their choice, their business and something they have the rights to do — even though I don’t agree with them, I will never condone harassment.)

3. I have already seen enough writers step away from posting their human-made works online BECAUSE PEOPLE KEEP ASKING IF IT’S AI. and it can be very disheartening for them. (me personally I don’t care if someone asks me this, because I know I don’t let ai write for me and I never let strangers’ negativity affect me, but I understand why some other writers care.)

3. no, you cannot know “for sure” if a fic is ai-generated. unless the author says so themself, you can only guess based on vibes. as I’ve said before, every ai telltale is something human writers actually write, otherwise ai would never have been able to mimic it at all.

4. harassment will never ever make you the good guy.

also you cannot report them for being ai, let alone because you personally suspected that it’s ai, because ai-generated works are allowed. it’s allowed on ao3 (here’s what ao3 said about ai-generated works on their platform), and since tumblr as a site itself, just like every other social media platform, also promotes and uses ai to help them run the platform, I guess it’s fair to assume they allow ai-generated contents on their platform too.

again, I am not a fan of ai fics, but I condemn harassment, ai witch hunt and speculations more.

respectfully, do better.

if anything, I believe you owe these two writers an apology.

[laurelynfaye]

Also, unless they’re using an anti-ai writing tracker there’s no way for them to “prove” they aren’t using ai. Also, what kind of ai are we talking about here? Grammarly’s writing check uses ai now (very irritating), and so does half the other shit one way or another. Are you accusing them of generating whole cloth? One section? Like. Generative Ai usage is generally pretty bad at writing, actually, so it would be difficult to get a full fic out of it that made any sense at all. Let’s give fic authors the benefit of the doubt.

[hostelhell]

An anti-ai writing tracker itself IS ALSO AI. IT IS KNOWN TO BE SUPER UNRELIABLE. IT DOES NOT WORK. IT NEVER WORKS.

It literally flagged Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein as AI. (X)

The only way you can know if a piece of writing is AI is if the author themself says so. Otherwise you’re just guessing. And for the hundredth time, “AI checkers” NEVER WORK. It’s flagged human-made works as AI and AI- generated works as human-made so. many. times.

Also AI can write terrifyingly good. As someone who once decided to read a fic that is tagged as AI out of curiosity, I can confirm AI can write a terrifyingly good fic. It’s scary how good it can get now.

[miminwords]

thought about s1 of 911 and we used to have lesbian sex on this show. we used to have women talking about and having and liking sex on this show in general but also there was lesbian sex

[livesbetweenpages]

Started this as tags and then realized I shouldn’t put that on op’s gifs—and this isn’t an argument against op or how important the Buckley siblings are in general but also to me (I don’t use #Buckley Sibling Supremacy as a tag for nothing)—but the idea of Maddie and JLH believing that Maddie got off that mountain for anyone but herself is very telling of how the show treats Maddie as a character. She’s a sister who is really a mom and leaves because being a wife to Doug is killing her and then leaves again because she can’t be the mom she wants to be, and every character arc she’s given is about how these aspects of her past allow her to be good at her job, and then she’s suddenly thrown into management, has one bad day, before being fully competent at it, case closed. Her parents get divorced and it hits her hard and we never look into it again, never explicitly look at how her parent’s relationship and how they didn’t handle their grief affected her; instead we only see it as a side plot for Buck because who Buck is is intrinsically linked to Maddie, the sister.

What I’m saying is: she got off that mountain for herself. Doug said they’d live together and they would die together and she was bleeding out in the snow remembering that and refused to let him be right. He was going to die. She was getting off that mountain and she was going to live. Being Buck’s sister had nothing to do with it. She knew she didn’t have to do it alone because Buck was her brother.

DEFEND OUR FREEDOM TO BE SEEN: TELL THE FCC THAT LGBTQ STORIES DON’T NEED A WARNING LABEL

The FCC Needs To Hear From You

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is targeting LGBTQ stories. They are trying to control what you see on television. This government overreach is dangerous to the existence of an independent and free media.

In a Public Notice released on April 22, 2026, the FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to “transgender and gender non-binary programming” and “the discussion or promotion of gender identity themes.”

And the Public Notice does not state how a change in TV ratings will impact gay, lesbian, and bisexual characters and stories on TV. Applying warning labels to programs with transgender and nonbinary characters and stories incorrectly equates them to programming with coarse and crude language, sexual situations, or violence. 

This makes life harder for LGBTQ Americans. It sends a message that the FCC can pressure the TVOMB to add even more ratings that stigmatize other diverse groups.

The FCC cannot directly set TV content ratings, but under this administration, it has a clear pattern of pressuring TV networks to comply with the political agenda of the Federal government. 

The public has until May 22 to submit comments and tell the FCC that LGBTQ characters and stories on television do not harm anyone – our lives should not be compared to content that is violent, coarse, sexual, or includes drug use.

It’s time to tell the FCC that LGBTQ people do not need warning labels.

TAKE ACTION NOW: FILE YOUR COMMENT

Use this link to comment on Proceeding 19-41 FCC Express Comment Form.

Enter your name and address. Providing an email address is optional. If you have concerns about privacy, you may use your initials or public address in your local area, such as City Hall. Do not use a joke name. It diminishes the comment’s credibility.

Enter your comments in the “Brief Comments” section.

Click “continue to review screen,” verify accuracy, and submit.

If you feel comfortable, screenshot your FCC comment and share it on your own social media accounts. Urge your own followers to file their own FCC comment too. You can share GLAAD.org/FCC in your post and tag GLAAD.

How to Write an Impactful Comment:

Submit your comment by the deadline (May 22nd).

Your submission does not need to be long. A single, well-reasoned paragraph is sufficient.

Do not copy/paste a template comment. The FCC values unique perspectives, and an original comment carries significantly more weight in the public record. You can explain why this matters to you without revealing private or sensitive personal information.

You can use the following prompts as a starting point to draft your own original statement:

Protect Free Speech: I believe the media should remain free from government interference and that federal agencies should not dictate or control the content Americans can watch on TV.

Oppose Discriminatory Labels: Giving LGBTQ-inclusive programming unique “warning” labels undermines artistic expression and threatens fundamental First Amendment principles.

Share Personal Impact: Seeing LGBTQ images on TV was incredibly important to me when I was growing up. It helped my own development and sense of belonging. Visibility matters.

Support Transgender People: I know transgender people in my life and they are not a threat to me or my family. Stories about them do not require warning labeling.

A Parent’s Perspective: As a parent, I want my children to see all kinds of people in the shows they watch.

Media Industry Freedom: I work in media and believe that media companies should have the freedom to tell stories that audiences want to see, including LGBTQ stories.

Chim's first rainstorm as Captain and he's like "awwww, my favoritism employee and my nepo brother employee both almost died or did die in the rain :( I should take it easy on them and be sure to check-in" and Buck and Eddie are like "Yeah :( I guess the rain really does bring up bad memories :( Thanks for understanding :( It's nice that You Get It. No solo chores for us today :)" but they're both thinking of when they said their Texas Hug and Cookies Goodbye in the rain. Eddie is like "Yeah, I thought I was never coming back :( It was really hard" and Buck is like "Yeah, I thought I'd never see you again :(" and Chim is like "but you DID come back to us, Eddie. You never gave up! and Buck...your heart literally stopped" and Buck is like "huh, I guess in a way it did." They never clear up the misunderstanding.
