Sat on the rooftop, you leaned against the cool railing, watching as the city succumbed to stillness. The clamor of the day was now mere echoes, and the dim glow of lamplights began to cast a gentle illumination upon the streets below. The faint sound of the metal ladder clanging reached your ears, meaning Jack was back from sneaking in to visit Crutchie.

“How is he?” You asked, standing up to greet Jack. He just sighed into your hug. That was your answer.

“What’s this?” You asked, tugging on a big blanket he had draped over his shoulder.

“It’s starting to get chilly, you know. Thought we need it.” He explained as he got comfortable on the ground, inviting you to sit with him. You nestled against his side, and he wrapped the blanket around the both of you, shielding you from the crisp midnight air. With a tender touch, he guided you to rest your head on his lap. Jack's fingers deftly untied the ribbon that secured your hair in its braid, and a gentle sigh escaped your lips in contentment. He did this every night— untie the ribbon that held your plait together, that is. His fingers would then unlace your hair, letting it down. You loved this. Such a small thing, but so intimate.

“Feels so good.” You murmured as his fingertips began to massage your scalp, sending shivers down your spine.

“How much did you pay for this blanket, Jack?” You asked, your voice barely above a whisper.

“Nothin’,” he replied casually.

“Francis!” You protested, sitting up slightly, your playful scold masked with genuine concern as you lightly smacked his chest.

“Woah, no need bring out the birth name, crazy lady,” Jack teased, “I just want us to not freeze. It's getting colder, and I can't have ya catching a chill.”

“Jack—”

“Goodnight, darlin’.” Jack planted a kiss on the top of your head and pulled you closer, his way of saying it’s time to get some rest.

IllumiNations: Reflections of Earth: Epcot (1999-2019)

Propaganda:

Oh boy, here we gooooo. I could go on for hours about this show. It was one of the most unique nighttime shows Disney had, it was so unique to Epcot and didn't have any songs from disney films, which is what the park was suppose to be! Its all original and is so uniting and powerful. The soundtrack is absolutely gorgeous and fully original and gives me goosebumps everytime. Nothing can compare to how powerful it is. And yes, the middle section was a bit slow, especially if you couldnt see the globe well, but I think they should have just updated that part and kept the rest instead of forcing IP into Epcot like the replacement shows. This show was all about nations uniting and every culture being beautiful. From the torches that 'blow out', to all the fire in the middle, to the iconic globe opening with one united torch, to the different countries lighting up, to the jaw dropping finale of huge canon like fireworks coming out of each country area to finish with the brightest finale you will ever see, to the iconic song afterwards (from the Millennium Celebration Tapestry of Nations Parade!). And then Spaceship earth all lite up in purple with the song from Tapestry of Nations parade playing as you exit the park, nothing will beat the magic of that, and I cry every time I remember I will never experience that again. I kid you not, half the reason I did the DCP when I did, was so that I could see the last showing of this! Ill have to find video of me afterwards later xD This was my absolute fav show as a kid and remains so to this day. IN THIS ESSAY I WILL

Here's an intro to the up and coming Miraculous Ladybug Abridge Series.

I'm not sure when I will be able to release the first episode. Most likely by mid-October.

It's very possible that the only way to ensure you don't become a conservative old person is to keep checking whether you're wrong. Every time. Genuinely mull over the opposing viewpoint even and especially when it's uncomfortable. You absolutely cannot a) consider yourself safely incapable of terrible principles because you're a good person, or b) treat a your disgust reaction to something as a moral truth. You can't get comfortable. Tiring! But you'd rather be tired and choose the right path, you know?

how do you live?

Sometimes you just have one of those moments where the progress we've made as a culture get thrown into stark relief. You look at something and go "Holy shit, that would never have happened when I was a kid."

Today, I had one of those moments when I realized that the teenage boys I'm working with are just. genuinely, openly enthusiastic about going to Build-a-Bear for their outing.

These are sixteen and seventeen year old boys! They just had a whole conversation about what to name their "cute", mostly new squishmallows! They're genuinely excited that they're going to Build-a-Bear this weekend and asking other kids to pick up specific accessories for them!!

Holy shit, that never would've happened when I was 16. None of the boys would have dared to be visibly interested - and neither would most of the girls! There would have been a million gay jokes and "Haha, you're a girl" jokes and "What are you, a baby?" jokes. Teenagers weren't even supposed to care about anything back then!

Less than 15 years later, and I'm watching three 17 year old boys treat all that as not even worthy of comment.

So let's call that a reason for hope. Even when the kids aren't alright, in some ways apparently they are alright. Go Gen Z, honestly. It's so lovely to watch you guys just openly doing and saying stuff that, when I was a teen, would've been a social death sentence.

Haven't been able to watch his new episode yet, but OVERANALYZE? SmallishBeans Joel. You did this to yourself, you obsessed Ethogirl
