@twilight0wanderer your comment about Jake and Rachel on the animorphs x GOT post tickled me so much I had to make this
rachel coded text posts from pinch rest
torrechiara castle, torrechiara, italy
they killed him for this
It's been years and I still haven't found a single sentence on Wikipedia I like more than this one. and quickly learned how to breakdance. The simple statement. Action, result, reaction. White boy stuns latinos. Quickly. His white ass got there and said I need to have something to keep me from being All the White People, and I'm clearly not a boy of combative strength. Breakdancing bluelinked as the perfect little punctuation, reminding you that it is a rich art and sport, making you consider the sort of undertaking that would be. I like this sentence more than some Beck songs.
Animorphs #22: The Solution thoughts (pt. 5):
Rachel's thought that she'd be willing to kill Saddler because "no one should have to be so... helpless" (p. 128). Yeeeeeesh. Like, I've mentioned before that Saddler foreshadows Tom — Rachel's cousin who's ~2 years older, "stupid enough" to be in the wrong place at the wrong time but still clearly not deserving that, not likely to get a happy ending no matter what his family tells each other, and Rachel's willing to kill him if that's the only thing left she can do to prevent him being "so helpless." But also: Saddler foreshadowing David? Almost worse. Because it's a whole other type of "helpless." Because Rachel doesn't kill him, and we don't know if that's better or not. Because yeah, maybe Saddler shouldn't have cut into traffic on a bike with no helmet on, but that doesn't stop his fate from being wildly unfair.
Jake asks Rachel if she has ideas for how to handle Saddler — and Rachel takes that to mean he's asking her how far she's willing to go to stop him. But we know, because we've been in Jake's head, that he's really just hoping someone will come up with a plan he can implement, because that's what he's always doing. Rachel is so so hard on herself in this book, but her perception that Jake sees her as a weapon is clearly off-base from the reality that he "worries about [her] more than anyone but Tobias" because he's scared the war is hurting her almost as badly as it is Tobias (p. 106). Not because he thinks she's a "violent nut" like Rachel is afraid she's becoming.
Also, that scene in the hallway is so heartbreaking because Jake and Rachel realize that the violence being against a fellow kid — a fellow Animorph — really does mean it's different this time. And they're so clear-eyed about the fact that they can see a future for Cassie after the war, a future for Marco, hopefully a future for Ax. But for themselves, and Tobias? They already know how this war is going to end, and that the possibility of any kind of normal life is off the table. And they accept that fact, and they hug, and they vow to keep right on protecting their team. No matter what it takes. No matter how little of either of them is left, when this all is done.

I've read this book more times than I've probably read anything, including stop signs.
Jake and Rachel have always been a source of comfort for me. I've always been thrown into leadership positions and the one to do the hard things so the people I love can live with themselves. So this book, one of the few that has those two front and center, has always stuck with me.
Jake, hating himself and secretly resenting his team for putting him in this spot. Forever willing to do it because responsibility and duty will always overwrite what he wants to do. And eternally loving each and every one of them, even when each and every one of them hates him at one point or another. Who seperates himself from everything because someone has to. Who knows without them he is absolutely nothing. And who regrets every choice he ever made because he wasn't perfect.
Rachel, the guardian. The one who dirties her hands so everyone else's can be clean. Who is always willing to let everyone else preserve their innocence. Who would never, in a million years, ask someone to do something they're not willing to. Who realizes that sometimes protecting and taking care of someone you care about means being honest. And that sometimes you need to keep them in the dark because they'll stop you from doing what needs to be done because they worry about you and your soul. And that doing the right thing sometimes has to come before your soul.

I Defeated the Demon Lord but it Turns Out the Demon Army was Largely Unaffected and I Fell Victim to a Flawed Belief in Great Man Theory
I Executed The Demon Lord With One Flawless Strike And After A Brief Power Struggle The New Demon Government Is Substantially More Committed To The War Because Of Some Reason I Don't Know
I have you blocked because I don't like your blog at all but I hope you're doing well. ok blocking you again adieu
Hello???
Anon bb come back i can change for you
I should be doing more to appreciate the lack of marvel movies in today's popular culture. I once yearned for marvel movies to have this level of irrelevance. They used to feel almost ozymandian, like an empire that had no beginning and no end. and now tony stark iron man is naught but two vast and trunkless legs of stone.
theres this thing a lot of white people do (and i myself have been guilty of) where we wanna be in on the jokes about white people, but also wanna preemptively excuse our mistakes, so we try to be cute about it like "omg im soooo white and stupid. white people suck and i am the worst one. i was raised in the suburbs ive never seen a melanin in my life. im so clueless let me tell you all the crazy things i used to believe-" and its like stop stop stop it nobody wants to hear this. its not cute its cringe. please. kill the instinct to turn your ignorance into an endearing character flaw. it doesnt work that way.
RIP to the legend
This goose fucking rocks and had a crazy life!
I really just have to summarize Thomas's entire life:
He was in a committed relationship with a male swan named Henry for 18-24 years before a female swan named Henrietta showed up and mated with Henry.
Thomas was initially jealous of the pair and attacked them, breaking 2 of the 5 eggs Henrietta had laid. However, once the remaining eggs hatched, Thomas warmed up to them and helped raise them.
Henry couldn't fly because of an injured wing, so Thomas taught the cygnets how to fly.
When they needed to reduce the goose population in the pond where Thomas and the swans lived, they dyed Thomas's feathers red so he wouldn't be separated from Henry.
Henry, Henrietta, and Thomas remained in their happy throuple for years and raised 68 cygnets before Henry died in 2009. After Henry's death, Henrietta found another swan and flew away, leaving Thomas alone.
Thomas finally met and mated with a female goose in 2011 and had his own babies. However, another goose named George stole them and raised them himself.
As Thomas grew elderly and blind, he was relocated to a wildlife center where he raised orphaned cygnets.
His caretaker at the center described him as "pretty high maintenance."
Thomas died in 2018 at the age of around 40. He had a funeral that included a small coffin and a procession that was led by a bagpiper. He was buried under the stone where Henry was buried, the two finally reunited in death.
Before and after his death, Thomas has been celebrated as an icon of the LGBTQ+ community for obvious reasons.
