watching leverage. how does eliot get his hair so luscious

[thefourthnorn]

Once upon a time I saw a post somewhere that said they headcanon that Shawn Spencer (Psych) and Eliot Spencer (Leverage) are cousins and since I've been watching Leverage for the first time I 100% agree with this headcanon.

Shawn and Eliot are 100% cousins.

Most unrealistic part of season 3 of leverage is Nate thinking that him—guy who works outside the system to get to people protected by it—getting sent to a for-profit prison run by a corrupt warden meant there was a conspiracy afoot with someone pulling the strings to make that happen. And as it turns out he was right, sure. But buddy you're in the United States, for-profit prisons ain't exactly rare and it'd be harder to find one not run by someone corrupt

Watching Parker run her con alone with just a server (s5ep8) is actually soooo satisfying. She's grown so much from the first episode where she goes in early since she "always works alone", in the earlier seasons where she can't grift, before Eliot taught her how to fight and when she still had no idea what Hardison was saying. Now, Sophie calls her "Little Bird", she called everyone on the team and they all trusted her to know what to do best, she masterminded a mastermind, built tech from scratch, improvised where needed with her hurt leg, still fought dispite it; the job had Nate complimenting her after all is said and done--and Parker was complimenting Amy every step of the way and encouraging her!!! Like, I enjoyed this episode my first watch but with the rewatch I think its my new fav.

I saw a post on a terf blog before I blocked it from someone being like "Ummm is anybody else really concerned about the rise of antisocial kinks like pissing" and it made me laugh so hard I almost did a little antisocial kink myself

Trying somno but we both fall fast asleep expecting the other to do something and end up both having a beautiful nights rest

Disgust has absolutely no ethical weight. If you are basing your ethical positions on the emotion of disgust you should stop, it is entirely unjustified and leads to a huge amount of harm.

[word-for-today]

Word for today: wisdom of repugnance

The logical fallacy that because something disgusts you it must be bad

this is probably the funniest example of a tumblr user simply not reading the post theyre reblogging at all

[steelblue8]

Reblog if you are a freak who is justifying their gross actions

[penny-anna]

anyway sound off. at what stage do ppl think Han figured out the Force was real. the boring answer is after seeing Obi-wan vanish but i think he could rationalise that away as his eyes playing tricks on him. what do we think.

[my-last-brain-cell-is-socrates]

Let me demonstrate my answer for you:

That's it. That's my answer. Endor.

Please just take a look at Han's face right after witnessing 3po float. The man just had his entire worldview blown to smithereens.

[whetstonefires]

that's so funny. that means he accepted Vader deflecting a blaster bolt with his hand as just something freaky government cyborgs can do, and stuck by Luke for multiple years as he tried to figure this Force stuff out, and just treated it like your friend getting really really into neopaganism to cope with a loss.

like yeah kid good job with the witching. i'm certain it will be more useful against your enemies than your sharpshooting. no i do not think your witchcraft is supplementing your aim but i'm not gonna argue about it.

[penny-anna]

yeah Luke was like 'I heard Ben Kenobi's voice in my head telling me how to blow up the Death Star :)' and Han was like 'kind of an unusual coping mechanism but I'm not gonna argue with him'

[davetheshady]

thanks to carbonite han not only misses learning about luke's training montage on dagobah, he's also half-blind during their whole escape on tatooine. luke's out there force-kicking henchmen with his gucci boots and doing flips and shit and han can't see a goddamn thing. now on endor luke's yeeting threepio with the power of his mind and han's just like 'the last time we hung out i had to stuff him in a tauntaun sleeping bag'.

@softness-and-shattering I hate you I hate you I hate you

Eliot Spencer: The file is on your desk. So is a muffin, orange juice, and coffee.

Nathan Ford: What would I do without you?

Eliot: Starve, I imagine.

“average Leverage episode has as much hockey in it as an episode of Heated Rivalry ” factoid actuallyjust statistical error. average Leverage episode has 0 hockey. The Blue Line Job, which has 10,000 more hockey moments than all of HR s1 is an outlier adn should not have been counted.

bad batch: oh goodness! omega chased a puppy down this mineshaft! we'd better go get her and all learn a valuable lesson in the meaning of friendship!

crosshair sideplot:

[just-call-me-zinnia]

I refer to Leverage as the Bugs Bunny of the con/heist genre in that they kinda bend the narrative to their will but also they just literally are Bugs Bunny for corporate scumbags. You can't tell me this isn't the exact kinda shit Bugs would pull if he was a con artist/thief.

[captainsnoop-deactivated2020041]

i hate it when game devs put “fixed several issues” in patch notes 

no. tell me what you fixed. i wanna know what the glitch was.

you know those patch notes that are like “fixed an issue where if the player sat in a bush for too long, they’d become the size of a skyscraper” 

i wanna read those. tell me those.

Adjusted value of Bees. Now that was a special one… because every item in the game had a minimum value, and a beehive was a container for bees, which each had a minimum value… which meant the moment one of your dwarves picked up a beehive, your entire fortress’ net worth skyrocketed… a value used in determining how powerful the foes that visit and try to murder you are.

[prokopetz]

Reblogging for the explanation of what “adjusted value of bees” actually means, because I know several folks following this blog have been wondering.

[probabilitydirigible]

Okay but you’ve all forgotten the best Dwarf Fortress bug of all “Flying creatures give birth in midair, leading to tragedy” 

[probabilitydirigible]

Actually I lied it’s the one where after a major update werewolves and vampires started climbing the nearest tree and refusing to come down. It turned out that he’d given evil creatures the ability to sense each other, but forgotten to set a maximum range on it, so werewolves were aware Hell was underground and trying to flee by climbing 

[thepageofhopes]

This has to be my favorite patch note ever

[whitecollarcrimekids]

I was having a Bad Night™️ and started crying and the words that made it out of my mouth were “the only thing thatll make me feel better is watching eliot hit people” and honestly I was right on the money

[whitecollarcrimekids]

Maybe Im just a hockey lover but damn if i didn’t love that ending. Eliots explains what enforcers actually do, the respect the teams have for them. All the enforcers on the ice.. the tapping of sticks in gratitude and solidarity ugh right to my little hockey heart.

But also. Enforcers keep things from going too far. This is what leverage does too. That is the role of the team, to take things down when they go too far, to keep the power in balance. Leverage is the metaphor for a hockey enforcer.
