THEY’VE PROJECTED A LETTUCE ONTO THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT

serenata-your-neighborhood-lefty

Boss made a dollar

I made a dime,

That was a poem

From a simpler time.

Now boss makes a thousand

And gives us a cent

While he’s got employees

Who can’t pay the rent.

So when boss makes a million

And the workers make jack

Then that’s when we riot

And take our lives back.

somehow I’ve been found by a man who feels like home.

i learned love shouldn’t be earth shattering or electric, filling you to the brim with butterflies and excitement.

yet he is both. the comfort and the craze.

i learned love is like that of a cat; you must earn it and one day when they choose to sit by you and rest their head upon your leg, you know.

Yes. they love you. no frills. The excitement is initial, but replaced by the chest filling, world engulfing sensation of peace and the only thing i can describe as real love.

selfless and selfish. I would give anything for you and want everyone to know this love but i want you all to myself.

I always thought i knew what it was to fear the loss of love but what i really feared was loss of one’s favor.

For you my dear, i fear not getting every moment. The thought of a short life with you is terrifying yet wonderful. It would be filled with you and our moments but i know it will never be enough. 20 years or 80 i will crave you in my life.

you are truly home. you give me peace, the tranquility to rest.

i was afraid of the butterflies but realized there was not a flutter of fear no rapid beating floating focus attention here now please—

but rather the gentle hum.

you would never make me fight for attention or affection. you give it all willingly. your presence calms the rapid rotation of my thoughts and i just somehow float down river and find myself gazing at you.

I’ve always gazed at stars and I know i look at you the same way i do them. I think the stars somehow seek to tell us the past present future. They whisper in the night and the trees echo their siren song.

I learned how to listen finally. I heard the secrets of what was and is to be.

it’s comforting knowing I’ve always loved you.

I love that Leverage really goes out of it’s way to show us that just because you break the ‘rules’, it doesn’t mean you’re breaking the rules. Rules and laws and society are all made up, at the end of the day, and all you really have is your own moral compass and sense of justice; is this just to you? Is it right? Should it be OK for companies to put people in insurmountable debt for the rest of their lives just because our medical care is so expensive in this modern day and age? No law or rule should change what you know in your heart is right and wrong, and I think that’s the key thing that makes someone a good person in my eyes.

#there was a time when parker wouldn’t have noticed, #not because she lacked the capacity to care, #but because she had narrowed herself, #to stay alive she cut off as many unnecessary things as possible, #watching her get them all back, #is one of the glories of this show (via @seananmcguire)

Leverage hands down has the best character development I’ve ever seen.

This scene hit me like a brick. My parents were hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt when I was 16 bc I’d had cancer the year before (my treatment ended up being free but the initial ER bills and such were not).

But somewhere along the line they just… Disappeared. My mom says they’re not being paid and they’re not in collections. It’s almost as if someone out there did…exactly what Parker did.

Ever since I saw this the first time, I’ve imagined it was Parker doing it. That she and Hardison had a free weekend and decided to take it out on a collections agency. That I was one of the lucky ones who got a little Leverage.

Okay but like yeah, that is actually a thing that happens, albeit not exactly like this. I don’t remember the exact process but basically there’s a booming industry to sell peoples debt - the business you owe money to sells it to someone else for a fraction of the money owed, wipes their hands of the whole affair, and now whoever bought your debt is riding your ass to get you to give the money to the. But it’s also entirely possible for people to just… buy up massive amounts of debt for pennies on the dollar, and then just. Forgive it. Because capitalism is a living nightmare, but the system is broken enough that it’s possible to exploit it for good sometimes.

Like, the main reason I know about this is because John Oliver did a piece on debt buying a few years ago, and ended it by revealing that he’d bought 15 million dollars worth of medical debt just so he could forgive all of it. Both to expose how broken the system was because some random fucker like him could buy millions of dollars in peoples debt with zero regulations, and also just to take the record for biggest TV giveaway in history.

The God I decide to believe in is the God of the bathroom floor. A God of scandalously low expectations. A God who smiles down at a drunk on the floor, wasted and afraid, and says, There you are. I’ve been waiting.

alternatively I do think it’s funny to be like

Villain: fool! the prophecy says that no man may kill me!

Trans Man Hero: *ineffectual stabbing*

Trans Man Hero: okay so like. the prophetic acknowledgement of my gender is good but also. very inconvenient right now.
