sam, dean & john definitely shared 1 bottle of that awful 5-in-1 shampoo-conditioner-bodywash thingies that you buy for cheap at pitstops. i imagine it never really bothered sam until he went off to stanford and saw how other Normal people live (including what fancy scented shampoos they use).

so sam when comes back into hunting in s1 dean obviously takes the absolute crap out of him for not only having 1: shampoo, 2: conditioner, but also 3: sensitive skin body wash. sam gets huffy about it and says that it’s not him who’s weird for caring about his body but dean for wrecking his skin & hair w/ that crappy 5-in-1 shit.

alsooo….. dean definitely sneaks sammy’s stuff into the shower once or twice when he’s sure sam won’t notice because he’s a sucker for a nice hot shower with expensive shampoo even if he won’t admit it to sam. but i think sam would steal deans stuff sometimes as well, when he’s aching for some sort of closeness or nostalgia. its the same stuff him and john have bought forever simply because its the cheapest on the shelf, but sammy likes the familiarity of it, how it reminds him of dean’s hugs and the mundane, comforting parts of their childhood.

obviously, they can both smell it on each other, but neither of them say anything for fear of bringing attention to their own shower habits.

i love how obvious spn is not only about dean liking men but about dean liking rugged masculine men

So I was writing a small paper in Microsoft Word and the program suddenly crashed (I saved a couple minutes before, thank god) and I get this message in the corner of my screen two seconds afterward

what the fuck

question re sams blood drinking. other than Lucifer Rising, the Famine episode, and Swan Song, did he actually drink from any demon other than Ruby? I cannot recall and thought you might know

I want to say no bc every time I think of an episode where he drank from someone other than ruby I look back at your list here and see oh no that covers it lmao but I am NOT going to swear to it RIP I need to rewatch s4-5 before laying my hand on the bible about a negative

i finished my baby dragon newt :] he's a little rough around the edges bc i'm still learning. but i wuv him anyway

vibrator that's just a girls heart mounted on a plastic enclosure with a couple battery powered electrodes in the handle to keep it beating while you grind on it.

Birds in a hands

i rewatched the sex scene between dean and cassie, and the samulet is such an active player in this it's driving me insane. it's often the brightest object on the screen, for one, and on top of that it remains more or less in the middle of the screen, propped between them.

then, when cassie starts kissing dean's chest, the dark lighting makes it appear as if she also kisses the amulet due to where it's lying on dean's chest. and when dean flips her over, the samulet dangles between them until it finally drops onto cassie's parted lips:

and then dean dives down and kisses her, not removing the samulet from between them:

and again the dark lighting makes it uncertain whether the amulet is locked between their lips—the subtle implication is that it's there, touching both of them, because the darkness doesn't reveal to the contrary. the samulet is thus a participant in the scene, engaging in acts of intimacy between dean and cassie. and the samulet representing dean's love for and devotion to sam, transfers that intimacy indirectly onto sam as the unwitting third party to the first sex scene in the show.

so anyway why the hell does the samulet stay on during sex if not for incestuous purposes

Kapaemahu

Hinaleimoana Wong-Kalu (Author) Dean Hamer (Author) Joe Wilson (Author) Daniel Sousa (Illustrator)

In the 15th century, four Mahu sail from Tahiti to Hawaii and share their gifts of science and healing with the people of Waikiki. The islanders return this gift with a monument of four boulders in their honor, which the Mahu imbue with healing powers before disappearing. As time passes, foreigners inhabit the island and the once-sacred stones are forgotten until the 1960s. Though the true story of these stones was not fully recovered, the power of the Mahu still calls out to those who pass by them at Waikiki Beach today. With illuminating words and stunning illustrations by Hinaleimoana Wong-Kalu, Dean Hamer, Joe Wilson, and Daniel Sousa, KAPAEMAHU is a monument to an Indigenous Hawaiian legend and a classic in the making.

When I made this post just ten days ago, it was about mass graves discovered at Al Shifa hospital and now we have learned that the same had happened at Nasser hospital in Gaza. The same genocidal pattern: a hospital is put under siege, patients and medical staff are abducted, tortured and buried in mass graves.

But to build on the last point I wanted to bring attention to in the previous post, it is very crucial to also keep in mind is that the Palestinian Civil Defence have reported that Israel had deliberately concealed the identities of those it killed and buried in these mass graves. Close to 400 bodies have been buried in these mass graves, 58% of the recovered bodies have not been identified.

In a press conference, a spokesperson of the civil defence in Gaza said that Israel had intentionally disfigured the bodies postmortem in order to remove any identifying markers such as birthmarks. He also mentioned that they suspect that the bodies have been placed in body bags that expedited the decomposition process, destroying any possibility of them being identified.

One of the main and only ways families have been able to identify the bodies of their loved ones is through the clothes they remember them wearing the last time they saw them. I saw a video of a mother identifying her son by his striped jacket. You can see the grief mixed with relief that she will be able to give her son proper burial.

Remember when months ago I said that to be identified and buried in Gaza has become a luxury? This is very much still the case.

Max Caulfield being called an "angel" as a result of using her ultimately apocalyptic time powers to save a life versus Rachel Amber being called an "angel" as a side effect of the pedestal she's on that can't prevent her from being murdered versus Daniel Diaz being called an "angel" as a tool of exploitation and abuse. is this anything.

I almost forgot to mention: this woman came into the penguin enclosure with a KESTREL??? I said “oh my god is that an American Kestrel?” and she said “Yes! She was outside doing raptor education for the kids, but she doesn’t like to get rained on.”
