John Rogers, proving himself once again to be an entire vibe.

John Rogers is the creator of two of my favorite things:

Leverage and Leverage: Redemption, show(s) about criminals who team up to punish billionaires and corporations who take advantage of regular people in ways that the law won't punish. It's a great heist show, it's hilarious, it's satisfying in a vengeance sort of way, it's deeply nerdy in sometimes subtle ways (criminals using aliases from Doctor Who, anyone?), and seeing the characters and relationships develop is really nice, too.

The following quote: "There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

John Rogers is one third of my Rogers philosophy.

Mr Rogers: Be kind

Steve Rogers: Do the right thing

John Rogers: Billionaires steal more than all the street crime combined.

everyone shut up im reheating ep 2 and i need to take a moment to appreciate svetlana vetrova. she sees ilya suffering with his dad, whisks him off to the bathroom with her and sasha, and proceeds to lay out the path to the cup for him. knows he feels so low and worthless between his fathers disapproval and team russia getting so thoroughly trounced and she builds him back up in under three minutes. reminds him who the fuck he is and that he CAN still be a winner. then she fucks off in case he needs/wants to fuck sasha as an added release (he doesn’t and that’s fine she doesn’t know why yet but she still tee’d him up for it bc that’s her boy!!!!)

svetlana i would die for you fr

Much has been said about how Shane’s specific brand of subbing aligns with his issues #hisissues.

But I also think it’s worth talking about Ilya’s side of things.

He gets told no one wants him around, no one needs him, no one misses him. He’s expected to politely submit and accept being screamed at, insulted, and degraded. He’s told he has a responsibility to give and provide but can never achieve it. He’s told he’s lazy, disappointing, weak, shameful. And most importantly he’s not allowed to do shit about that. He has to nod politely, agree demurely, maybe mouth off a little if it’s his brother but always always obey. His purpose is to obey and provide and what he provides is never good enough.

So it makes sense that he’s so into their whole deal. Because Shane doesn’t just like him and want him around, Shane’s desperate for him. Shane’s willing to do insane things just for the privilege of having his attention. And Shane isn’t some nobody hanger on Shane is the absolute top dog in his world, he’s the most respected and most respectable and he’s on he’s knees begging for Ilya, only happy when he’s got Ilya, can’t fucking get enough of Ilya. He’s not obeying and subservient he’s making alllll the calls. He’s got all the power. He can snap his fingers and Shane, the actual Shane Hollander, is hitting his knees with his tongue out. And Shane never cruel to him or critical Shane is GRATEFUL. Shane is thanking him with tears in his eyes.

When they’re together Ilya is in control, he’s appreciated, he’s noticed, he’s powerful, he’s wanted, he’s always enough.

Peabody Awards on why they chose to recognize and award “Heated Rivalry” in this year’s awards:

“The show balances complex themes of sexuality and emotional connection, inspiring fans and promoting non-toxic masculinity, ultimately making what was arguably the biggest cultural impact in television this year.”

It's killing me that Ilya Rozanov is Mr. I'm gonna kiss your inner thigh after I suck you off, Mr. I'm going to look deep into your eyes while I take your vcard and make absolutely sure that it feels good for you, Mr. I'm going to plant kisses up your spine after I cum inside, Mr. I'm going to caress your ass and hold you against me and kiss any part of you that I can reach before I pull out.

But one Shane Hollander forehead kiss had him spiraling like a cyclone. Like bruh. You were already a goner. You've BEEN a goner, Mr. They told me nothing, was my idea. Girl bye 🙄🤚
