Long Covid is the most common chronic illness among children now. Congratulations?

Gotta have the outfits, too.

I don’t understand how white men have read all those books about WWII and can’t follow that these things happen in an order.

What he mean is it hasn’t started to come for white American-born people yet.

Tell a few legal residents who are now afraid to go to their jobs or take their kids to school that they’re overreacting, see how it goes.

Remember guys, it’s only fascism if it comes from the fascist region of France, what we have here is sparkling authoritarianism (also Tom if you don’t think smart people aren’t already curbing what they say publicly I regret to inform you you aren’t in the group chat)

I know everyone puts ACV in everything but having recently become allergic to apples (kill me), I’m finding I actually like rice wine vinegar so much more?? It’s spectacular in vegan cheeses and such.

This makes sense

But like in a general pop radio, top 40 sense, Kermit, name five.

Maybe it’s because Kermit sings it so he’s talking about frog songs, I bet there are a lot of frog songs about rainbows and what’s on the other side, because I mean, holy shit, can you imagine trying to understand what the fuck a rainbow is as a frog? You’d think you’d licked yourself.

No disrespect to Jim Henson but I don’t feel like there really are that many songs about rainbows and what’s on the other side

Yes.

Yes, they’re now my best friend. Shoot your shot.

It is good to get vaccinated. It is not sticking it to the man. The man has convinced you that it’s fine to endanger people as long as your own pleasure and comfort is maintained. The man is glad that’s as far as you’re willing to go.

Getting vaccinated against Covid is an act of self-preservation. Masking is an act of self-preservation, protest, and community service. Both are good. But they are not the same thing.

Hi guys did you look into whether any of that was true or did you just hit copy-paste on the press release they sent you?

XANDER BEING MAD THAT ANYA SLEEPS WITH SPIKE IS UNFORGIVABLE

Truly spectacular.

It was a good day

I KNEW you’d remember!!

*me pointing to an Encyclopedia Brittanica set*

“Of course it’s a person! It has a FAMILY”

Tell me someone else remembers this one

“Hating AI is bigotry” is on the same level as that woman in the old place who demanded an apology from a real person because she decided they were having fantasies about her and it was draining her energy.

When you consider that Whedon was cheating on his wife for the entire run of the show, this arc gets even worse.

Still, again, Oscars for Emma. And the lettuce dresses are amazing.

Hindsight and all.

Buffy deciding to be an entertainer as a distraction I love though, because I have actively done this myself when an event was late.

Except no, in the Whedonverse a man can’t be a villain if he’s ever been a hero for a split second.

I wouldn’t say it comes out of nowhere! He hides their engagement for months behind shitty excuses, and then summons a demon to try and fix things (that’s how we get the musical!)

And you have to gently tell them “your instincts were absolutely right, and the problem is he is a sad scared little boy and you, despite your emotional intelligence, love, and communication skills, can’t fix that for him.”

But as for the Scoobies, this is when you abandon Xander and adopt Anya.

But let’s be clear: Xander’s real mistake was proposing. He wasn’t remotely ready and he was *so* goddamn immature he couldn’t even talk to Anya about it. We’ve all had friends with guys like this, where when they sob to you “I sensed something was wrong but he said it was fine!”

Ok let’s talk about Xander leaving Anya at the altar. First of all, Emma Caulfield? Phenomenal. Second of all, Xander’s dad? Not a great character. Third? FUCK XANDER FOREVER.
