Your affection for your charge has rendered you incapable of clear and impartial judgement. You have a father’s love for the child, and that is useless to the cause.

#giles was so important to teenage me #I wanted him to adopt me and be my psuedo-dad so bad 😭❤️

This is probably my favorite Giles scene 🥺

Tony Head was a wonderful actor, very talented. He also seemed to be a genuinely good person. This past year and a half hasn't been kind to the Buffy fandom...

I grew up watching Buffy and I can't express how much the characters, and the actors who played them, are a still a part of me to this day.

He'll be missed. 😟

#mine too ❤️

I feel like a lot of people get "All Art is Political" confused with "All Art is made with Political Intentions" which is not the same.

And not find out. I cannot stress enough how much I do not want to find out.

Anna Garcia, returning rulette contestant:

•punched Demi in the stomach

•crawled under the rulette wheel

•impersonated an officer of the law(paul refereeno)

Perfection. I think it should be illegal to film an episode of game changer without her actually.

#I love anna she should be on every episode of game changer and make some noise ever #I really want another msn with her Jess and DJ

after seeing that poll about whether usamericans will be celebrating the 250th anniversary of their country, I have to ask: are they aware they are hosting the football world cup this summer

malcolm-f-tucker

the 2026 football world cup is being hosted by the usa, mexico and canada

usamerican, I knew this

usamerican, I did not know this

not usamerican, I knew this

not usamerican, I did not know this

Remaining time: 1 day 11 hours

#I feel like most americans in the host cities know in the #braced for how fucking annoying and disruptive to my life this will be way #I think a lot of americans would be more excited/interested in going for the experience if it wasn't so gd expensive

I really don’t like when a book advertises itself as fantasy or scifi with maybe some romance on the side and then it turns out to just be a romance with some fantasy or scifi wallpaper. Fine if you wanna read that but I don’t. Stop having sex and kill the dragon already. This is false advertising.

what-even-is-thiss

I signed up for political intrigue and aliens but instead you’re just having therapy speak sex with a human man. Where’s the aliens???? Kill something!

#romantasy (and the sci-fi equivalent) need to start being stocked with romance #I'm Tired

I love the way little kids understand things

Some of the parks near me have lakes where you are technically allowed to go swimming, but thanks to the levels of pollution it is generally advised Not Recommended especially for kids.

I was at the park earlier and a family with three young kids biked past me on the trail. Someone had obviously tried to explain this to one of the girls because she suddenly goes "Nobody get too close to the water if you fall in you'll DIE INSTANTLY because of CHEMICALS"

#she's not right but she said it so confidently I trust her #little park safety monitor 🫡#i really wish the lakes were safe for kids to play in though #there aren't as many community pools around here as there were where i grew up #thanks deregulation

#not compared to most people I feel like #our craziest was when my cousin in his late 20s had a fling with a co-worker and she got pregnant #and he and his parents didn't tell anyone in the family until the kid was like 5 #I don't even know why I think it would've been less of a deal if they'd told people when the kid was born #nobody in my family is a judgy religious how dare you have a kid out of wedlock type #all the aunts showed up to the next family gathering with kids books to give him #🤷‍♀️#people do a lot of weird things out of perceived shame

Maybe I'm a bitch but I don't think this should be your blurb headline if I'm 2/3rds of the way through the book and discussion of the actual heist adds up to about a page in total

#bookblr #and side by side they wander #it's a novella so 2/3rds is about 60 pages but still #it's vastly about the MCs relationship with a sentient construct #which is fine and mildly interesting #but I was told to expect a heist and there is no heisting #and barely any discussion of heisting to come

i do find the rules around clothes fascinating because of how made up it all is. we invented the idea of covering our bodies from the elements because we lack fur like other mammals and then made up all these rules around it and now people will unironically tell you "men cant wear skirts its unnatural" girl none of this is natural. we are born naked and made up the rest as we went along. hope this helps.

#also who decided what kind of clothes were “nice” and “professional”#why do we gotta be uncomfortable to be dressed up or work appropriate?

A few doors encountered by Wayward Children. Might make this into a bookmark for myself idk

[ID copied from alt: A narrow, vertically oriented canvas showing 3 different doors rendered in black lineart, meant to look like ink sketches on parchment. The first door at the top resembles ancient Greek architecture, with a pomegranate and branches decorating the top, Ionic columns on the sides, and a narrow entryway leading into blackness. The second door below that is round and nestled into the base of a tree, and the third, slightly ajar, is heavy and damaged wood with lightning emerging from it. At the bottom is cursive text that reads, "be sure." End ID.]

You know how some married couples cheat on each other constantly and don't break up over it but they'll still insist they're strictly monogamous and they probably have some really bigoted views towards poly people too? Most western parents seem to be doing the same thing but with communal child-rearing. They're already actively outsourcing the majority of interactions with their children to teachers & devices but if you suggest anything that would make it so other people have a say in how their children are raised, they'll want you dead. But they'll still send their children to school expecting the teachers to do everything from potty training to teaching them how to do their taxes.

#there are a lot of people who want to Achieve marriage #or more accurately to be seen as Achieving Marriage #more so than they care about having a relationship #in the same way they care a lot more about being seen as Achieving Children #than actually having and raising their own children #a poly relationship and communal child raising are not Achieving those things in the social norms these people are desperate to adhere to

"why can't they just be friends?" not in the homophobic sense, but in the "in your need to center romance in everything you are missing the whole point of the media in question" sense

they put my blood through every test under the sun and yet nowhere in the pages and pages of lab reports do they tell me what my blood type is

json-derulo

your neutrophils absolute? 2.71. anion gap? why, that's 11! hemoglobin A1C? a solid 5.4. and don't fret, champ—your VLDL (calculated) is a cool 12. real fascinating stuff. hm? what's that? you want to know what kind of blood you have? like, so you won't have to look your next ER nurse in the eye and tell her you have no clue what type you have right after giving her a date of birth that confirms you are over 30 years old? psh, don't be silly! we can't tell you that! it's a ✨secret✨

json-derulo

do you know your blood type??

yes, I'm certain of it

I think my family told me what it was but I'm not sure/no recent test to confirm

no, I have no clue

I don't have blood/results
