Simple joys: rediscovering good music that somehow got forgotten, and deciding which character deserves to dance to it in my head.

Perfect storage solution for cutting boards!

wondered what it would be like Jackie manages to get up there in years, works hard enough, manages to get to a point where she can retire.

Right. Either talk to me or Robert’s gonna make you dance.

My dad, picking something off the floor: It’s a bobby pin.

Me: Yes.

My dad: I thought you didn’t use these any more!

Me: I don’t.

My dad: They only turn up when you’re around!

Me: Hmm.

My dad: Are you summoning them??!??

Forewarning - slightly petty (but mostly fun) anti-mlvn post:

I’m just gonna say it: I know it’s Mlvn’s finding byler as such a legitimate threat that stops them from enjoying absolutely HILARIOUS dynamic Mike and Will would have as the straight-and-gay best friend duo, because there’s no other reason to pass up what could easily be one of the most hysterical dynamics of all time. Like?

Down-the-Line Will (over his initial feelings for Mike) finding out he has a crush on another straight man—only for Mike to notice, threaten to fight said man for being an asshole, and Will just sitting there facepalming because Mike was the stupid straight man before (or just this energy in general)

College!Will being too afraid to go to pride alone and Mike being absolutely so “I’m gonna paladin mode this” extra he goes out of his way to be a true ally, learn more about it and even attend with him…only to end up getting in a fight with homophobes (again) and the police (again) over them being rude + trying to put reigns on a good, informative time

Newly (or temporarily, if they really want to stick to mlvn) single Mike being shit with women and going to Will for help being more desirable to them because (despite being gay) he pulls harder than literally anyone else in the party

But NO.

Even their explorations of a friendship that literally defines the show is permanently stifled…because they don’t actually believe Mike could never have feelings back, or even consider that the straightest versions of Mike & Will would still be the best of friends.

Even the “I’m gay/bi and still ship mlvn” kids overlook the potential of this—which is how I know it’s rooted in homophobia and not really paying attention to the dynamics of characters in the show ☠️ and no, it’s become abundantly clearer over time that straight!mike isn’t how it’s going down in canon but ??? This interim space between S4-S5 would have been perfect for that…if you loved the characters more than you loved a fight.

Nothing can compare to the absolute GLEE I felt watching the new futurama Fortnite skin emote compilation videos. Like I'm never playing that game but just look at him go

1 AM and the servers asleep so i’m just gonna post my thoughts on here but i think it’s rlly so important and poignant how sho extends an olive branch to his father after everything that happened, when he absolutely would’ve been justified in spitting in toichiro’s face and walking out of his life forever (similarly to what toichiro did to him, metaphorically at least). and that decision that he makes is one that cements how mature and understanding sho is despite his antics and attitude.

like, he’s a kid, and he’s a kid that experienced massive amounts of abuse and trauma in his formative years. we will truly never know how he was raised whilst working in claw, but seeing how pretty much everyone else was manipulated, brainwashed, and tortured into reaching their full potential—the assumption can be made that it wasn’t easy. and sho’s father is Directly responsible for that, meaning he’s Directly responsible for any mistreatment or neglect sho faced even if it wasn’t done by him directly. and any kid at his age with all that baggage probably wouldn’t want to keep their dad around, after everything has finally been resolved. but sho doesn’t do that; he reminds toichiro that he’s still gotta hear an earful from his ex wife, and sho is ensuring that this won’t be the end. he is offering his father a kindness that that man never gave to him. and that’s like. Astounding for a kid his age

i think it’s really easy for people to place sho firmly in the trope of like silly, goofy kid with an insane side; but sho has one of the most level heads out of the esper teens. it’s kind of like he got a lot of that emotional turbulence out of the way beforehand, and now is just centering his focus on this one goal. of course, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t do stupid shit based on bad trains of thought (the whole concept of him trying to resist the narrative only to become more ingrained in it is like. right there. also the hero trope shit y’all have seen the essay posts i’m not reiterating). but sho is a lot more sure of what he’s doing and what he wants than ritsu, mob, or teru.

also it’s just like. the fact that he gives his father a second chance really drives home the message of the entire series. that people can make mistakes, but those mistakes do not have to define their whole existence if they’re willing to own up to them and change. sho is extending himself in much the same way mob extended himself to toichiro hours earlier, only this time there’s the weight of this probably not being the first time sho has given his father a second chance and yet he Still does it. and toichiro realizing that he could’ve squandered that chance during confession arc is SO GOOD like you see how sho is conflicted and hurt bc he’s essentially being let down once again, and so toichiro walks back. he won’t let his son’s trust be given in vain

the suzukis rival the kageyamas in terms of like. accurate familial representation. like if you eliminate all of the psychic terrorism bullshit, this is a broken family—further broken by a messy divorce—trying to navigate life post-everything. there is no expectation for sho to forgive his father (he doesn’t do that at any point and That Is Important), and there’s no expectation for him to do anything with his father At All. toichiro understands that he is deserving of no one’s kindness.

yet sho does it anyway. he does it because he wants to and because he cares. and that’s far more than toichiro could’ve ever asked for

Oh yeah, that Au idea with tiny dragon Radiance didn't get abandoned btw, here's a Hollow concept for that :]

They're fluffy!

you're worth the mess.
