ive still been watching supernatural i just keep forgetting to write my thoughts down cuz i have a job and my brain is like only one thing at once!!!

[supernaturalthoughtvomit]

I really just want to emphasize that although i love watching supernatural and overthinking about it (it’s like my hobby now lol) it cannot be said enough that the representation of people of color, or lack thereof a lot of the times is absolutely deplorable. Like it’s genuinely horrifying and sometimes it literally hurts to watch as a poc myself. Especially as the rise in hate crimes has happened in the US to all bipoc, it just makes it even more horrific to watch what I know to be a reflection of what some people think is “normal” and that’s kind of a terrifying thought. This along with the sexism, homophobia, ablism, and sooo much more I want to make it clear that besides my enjoyment of the show I really don’t support the show or almost anyone like,, involved with the show, I’m sure they’re not all bad people but I suppose my main point is that I think this show is a genuinely bad and harmful at times. I’m ok with engaging in discussion and I really enjoy thinking about this show critically, it’s like a fun puzzle trying to think of all the different kinds of stories they could’ve told with the premises they present to us. But!!!! Ultimately my enjoyment will always be colored by the lense of being a queer poc person and I just feels like that adds some context to where I’m coming from and where this blog stands.

wait u dream of Cas, Dean? ha Gay

[supernaturalthoughtvomit]

it’s funny how theres a scene where dean needs to meet up with a girl after cas “dies” and he’s hyping himself up reminding himself that this is what he does but he’s clearly nervous. if im going with a destiel timeline (which arent i always) then it feels like a bi man struggling with the fact that he just experienced a relationship that was gay af and had elicited some new but very real feelings and then it was taken away from all at once and so now he’s trying to go back to “Normal”. My point is even more illustrated by the fact that the episode this appears in has to do with Dean feeling guilt, and like he was most definitely socialized to be ashamed and guilty over his attraction to Cas and i KNOw they have Jo there in that ep like LOOK look how straight! But to be honest the relationship they have is so bizarre and unsatisfying for everyone involved lol, in my opinion it never seemed like Dean had genuine romantic feelings for Jo. It reminds me of when I was a kid and would pick a boy to have a crush on. I wanted to like them so bad and would wish really hard that I had feelings for them just so I wouldnt have to deal with my much realer gay crushes and ultimately these crushes would never go anywhere. Dean tells himself it didn’t work with Jo because it was too complicated but is being attracted to someone else really that complicated 🤷‍♀️

s7 ep3 is a particularly gay ep for dean and i’ll explain why when im not absurdly high

[supernaturalthoughtvomit]

if i were a character in supernatural my hell would either be waiting for a ride when im already late to work but it never comes (looped) or doing a food service job where i’m waiting for a customer to order but they keep looking at the menu and saying “one sec!” while the line grows behind them (looped)

ALSO to add onto my last post when cas says “you don’t have to be controlled by fate, you taught me that” he looks Directly at Dean and only leaves once dean starts making sexy comments about kate winslets boobs like cas really was in love this whole ass time huh
