Ok hear me out.

Psych/Ted Lasso cross over.

The guys play a game in America. Someone comes through the hotel and steals all their shit. The SBPD comes through to solve the crime and find their shit.

The banter between Shawn Spencer and Ted Lasso. Them annoying the shit out of Roy.

Beard and Gus getting along. Awkwardly.

Roy and Henry are besties and shit talk Shawn and Ted.

Everyone being annoyed by Lassiter.

Jamie flirting with Jules and both Shawn and Roy get on his ass about it.

Shawn continually calling it “soccer” just to get a rise out of Roy.

Shawn introducing himself as “Bumbersnatch” to make fun of Benedict cumberbatch and Bumbercatch blue screening.

Shawn clocking Roy and Jamie as a couple and both of them adamantly denying it.

Lassiter getting jealous bc Shawn seems to enjoy rage baiting Roy more than him

“Why don’t you use ai” idk man beyond the obvious environmental and “this machine causes psychosis and encourages people to kill themselves” thing I think asking the equivalent of a solid D student who is also a pathological liar if they can answer my question/do the work for me seems pretty fucking stupid

[sisyphusmusthavemassivetraps]

anyone else out here being overwhelmed by guilt and realizing the disease??

Sorry to break it to you but you literally have to face your fears and slaughter them. Otherwise you will live a small life that you do not want. You literally have to view your biggest fears and attack them head on. You have to fall into the abyss to find your way out. The easy path does not exist. There is no get out of jail free card. You have to allow yourself to die a spiritual death over and over again in order to reinvent yourself into the person you are actually supposed to be. And you have to be painfully honest with yourself and the people around you. It’s horrible but it’s truly the only way.

Sorry we really went from free the nipple, take back the night, slut walks, and ending gender/sex segregation in sports being fucking milquetoast feminism 101 concepts to fucking girl dinner and "I just worry about fairness if we let trans girls play against cis ones" and "it was right of that woman to call the cops on a black man for existing near here in public during the day time because men are all violent monsters" and "radical feminism isn't transphobic we just need to kill all men including trans ones those oppressive traitors" and I will legit never be able to be normal about it. What the FUCK happened. I'd say I wonder what the feminists of my youth would say about this but I'm one and lemme tell ya I want to throw up. Go fucking read bell hooks or do something else useful please because all of this learned helplessness, gender essentialism, and transphobia dressed up as feminism is actively holding us back.

Story time:

In middle school biology, we did an experiment. We were given yams, which we would sprout in cups of water. We then had to make hypotheses about how the yams would grow, based on descriptions of yam plants in our books, and make notes of our observations as they grew.

Here’s what was supposed to happen: we were supposed to see that the actual growth of the plant did not resemble our hypotheses. We were then supposed to figure out that these were, in fact, sweet potatoes.

What actually happened was that every single student in every single class lied in their notes so that their observations perfectly matched their hypotheses. See, everyone assumed the mismatch meant they had done something wrong in the process of growing the plant or that they had misunderstood the dichotomous key or the plant identification terminology. And, thanks to the wonders of a public school education, everyone assumed the wrong results would get us a failing grade. We were trying to pass. We didn’t want to get bitched out by the teacher. Curiosity, learning, science - that had nothing to do with why we were sitting in that classroom. So we all lied.

The teacher was furious. She tried to fail every student, but the administration stepped in and told her she wasn’t allowed to because a 100% fail rate is recognized as a failure of the teacher, not the class. It wasn’t even her fault, really, though her being a notorious hard-ass didn’t help. It was a failure of the entire educational system.

So whenever I see crap like Elizabeth Holmes’s blood test scam or pharmaceutical trials which are unable to be replicated or industry-funded research that reaches wildly unscientific conclusions, I just remember those fucking sweet potatoes. I remember that curiosity dies when people are just trying to give their superiors the “right” answers, so they can get the grade, get the job, get the paycheck. It’s not about truth when it’s about paying rent. There’s no scientific integrity if you can’t control for human desperation.

Im beginning to face the difficult reality that maybe I only enjoy smoking cigarettes because it forces me to take deep breaths

Adding @marcholasmoth 's tags because that is legitimately a fun fact

[dare-to-dm]

That context definitely puts a new spin on the phrase, though. Like, that's not expressing a normal kind of happy. That's expressing "I'm not currently experiencing gut churning legitimate fear for my life, which is nice"

Is it not because their shells are shaped like smiles?
