Friends,

Tons of us know Jenny - she’s OutPastTheMoat here on tumblr and we have all cried over her amazing works. You can find her here:

@outpastthemoat

outpastthemoat - AO3

Her husband was just diagnosed with cancer. It was sudden and shocking and it’s really hard on her and her family. They have two super-small babies. She’s having to drive back and forth to a far-away hospital. And she’s very worried.

If you haven’t read about this yet, it’s on her tumblr (#jenny vs. life and death and #jenny vs. life tags) and it would be really good of you to spare some thoughts for her.

Jenny has not asked, but, as her friends, we want to ask that you spread the word and that you donate to her if at all possible.

We all want to see her husband get better and for life to return to normal for them - we all also know it is possible that things could get dire and that staying alive in America can be expensive.

PayPal - [email protected]

If you are able, please help her out. She is a soft, gentle mom, a talented human, and a really kind and fierce and smart person who protects her family & friends.

On PayPal: > Pay or Send Money > "Send to friends and family in the US” or “Send to friends and family internationally" as applies to you > Enter Jenny’s email address- you can copy/paste: [email protected]

The confirmation will list Jenny Pickett.

(I have limited info but you can let me know if you have any questions about the PayPal-ing by using the ask box or via majorenglishesq at gmail.)

Edit: If you use any reference, please use “gift” not “donation” to prevent account freezing.

the writers when it comes to cas:

#lol tbh #it's so sad #i'm gonna go read some fic bc the fandom actually knows how to write cas #castiel #spn spoilers #negativity cw

extreme spn negativity ahead (like no for real i’m bitter af.. i warned you so don’t come for me):

you know what’s gonna happen in s13?

dean’s not gonna be allowed to mourn cas or cry about cas’ death because it’s soooo gaaaaay to cry over your dead best friend ew feelings am i right then cas is gonna come back and he’s not gonna be allowed to process what happened to him and they’re not gonna talk about anything for like ¾ of the season because everything is happening so much! and character development? fuck that shit! who needs it when you have all that delicious manpain!

and then right around the eleventh hour they grunt in each other’s direction in mutual understanding and then it’s someone else’s turn to be the sacrificial lamb lol

in conclusion: 1) this show is a pile of hot garbage 2) i dunno why i keep thinking things are gonna be different 3) fucking yawn bye

#i'm sooooo mad lol #you'd think the writers and showrunners would realise that they landed on a fucking gold mine of characters and premise and actor chemistry #but they continually and consistently piss it away... like watching the train wreck unfold from afar is fascinating #spn spoilers #12x23 #spn negativity cw #negativity cw #glossopost #wank cw

SPN 12x19

What I liked most about this episode.

……………………………

This:

This is my blog, and I’m going to just say a little thing about Destiel because I want to, and I can. Especially because this is the least amount of queerbaiting we’ve ever seen in this show thus far. Why? Because there’s a lot of nuance for those of us who grew up in the Mix Tape Generation, and to us, there’s absolutely no way to misinterpret this scene.

Here’s why I liked it, and found it so wonderful.

There was no reason for this scene. None. It did not play to the overall narrative of the episode, or even, the show in general, which is how a lot of the queerbaiting on the show is done. And you can go ahead and say that it’s just showing that Dean thinks Castiel is a part of the family now and that’s how he’s showing it, but Dean doesn’t make mix tapes for Sam. Or anyone that we know of. It was a small scene. Castiel means to return the tape and Dean gives it back. He says, “it’s a gift. You keep those.”

Now, this is a significant scene for being so brief.

Dean Winchester was born January 24, 1979. Which makes him about my age. And here’s what I remember about people giving other people mix tapes:

You gave your crush a mix tape to say your feelings and hopefully end up macking in the janitor’s closet after fourth period in middle/high school.

If you weren’t making that mix tape for yourself, you were making it for your crush.

Also, the most meaningful band in existence to Dean Winchester, born January 24, 1979 is Led Zeppelin.

So. He didn’t just make a mix tape to give to Castiel. He made a mix tape of HIS favorite music to give to Castiel. That’s Level 2 flirting through mix tape sociology. And we already know how much Dean treasures his music. How meaningful it is to him. One of the most popular lines from the show, to this day, is: “driver picks the music, shotgun shuts his cakehole.”

This small, insignificant scene is probably lost on the younger viewers who didn’t grow up in a mix tape generation, but let me say this: for any of us who were born circa January 24, 1979, knows that this small, insignificant scene is anything but.

Mix tapes had power.

Mix tapes had significance.

Mix tapes were confessions.

ltleflrt

I’m going to be screaming about this for at least five years.

ltleflrt

But wait, I have more to say.

Giving a mix tape back means one of two things.

1) I don’t like you. 2) Basically the equivalent of giving back a promise ring.

We all know that Cas likes Dean. Loves him, according to his own words a few episodes back. So that nixes number 1 on the list. So that leaves 2. Why would he be giving back a promise ring? Because he thinks he’s pissed Dean off too much for him to want to stay together.

Then Dean insists he keep it. If Dean wanted to break up, he would have accepted it back. But nope. Don’t give back the promise ring, Cas. This argument is not the end of us. I still care about you. Keep it. It’s a gift.

jupiterjames

I posit that Castiel didn’t even know the real significance of it, being an angel. He thought Dean was giving him something to be entertained by. Dean didn’t tell him it was a gift until Castiel tried to return it! Which is so very Dean being allergic to his feelings until he can’t be anymore. He’s not going to openly flirt with Cas or give him a line like he does the women he sleeps with because Cas means something to him. And he realizes that Castiel won’t understand the significance of a “confession” like a mix tape. Dean could play it off with fear of rejection if it was that. But it means something to DEAN. And Castiel starts to understand that the second he took it back!

ltleflrt

Yeah I don’t think Cas understood what he was doing. But those of us in the Mix Tape Generation totally understood what the symbolism was. And Dean clarified to Castiel that gifts are meant to be kept.

How else am I, a child of the Mix Tape Generation, supposed to interpret that other than Dean saying I GAVE YOU MY HEART, CAS, YOU CAN’T JUST GIVE IT BACK DAMMIT.

#preach #but also fuck me sideways haha #what did I do to deserve any of this #deancas #spn meta #12x19 #spn spoilers
