I like it when there is a set of siblings all with like birthdays within two weeks of each other and you can pinpoint exactly on what holiday their parents like to fuck.

My roommate does NOT like this new information.

The old school lack of transparency on tumblr is amazing because you assume the people you follow must all be equivalent to you and then you see someone write “I brought my youngest to college today” and someone else write “my mom wouldn’t let me listen to Ariana Grande when I was a kid” and then your head explodes

#lol #older than both of you in a trenchcoat #lmao

I guess it makes sense that people with an all or nothing viewpoint will see incremental change, no matter how significant, as no change at all.

Helping everyone 30% is pointless because 30 always rounds down to 0. Helping millions is pointless if tens of millions are affected.

The people who are hurt while we wait for the perfect solution, who wouldn't be hurt if we solved the problem incrementally? Irrelevant, they're not all the people, so they don't count.

It doesn't matter that we can save some lives and end some suffering, or that it's easier to fix 70% of the problem after we fix 30% of it. 0% or 100% are the only options and if you accept anything less than 100% you are approving of the remaining people not being helped. Anything less than everything rounds down to nothing and it's better to do nothing than to do less than everything.

SPN Rewatch: FanFic Edition

Our goal is to rewatch the show with fanfic writing in mind. We want to look for all the places in canon where we could add a scene, show a scene from a certain character’s point of view, or change something to make things turn out differently. (We may also critique what the show writers did; that seems inevitable.)

Episodes we're discussing: 2.05 Simon Said and 2.06 No Exit

What time will it be for you:

UTC - Saturday 21:00

Los Angeles - Saturday 2pm

New York - Saturday 5pm

London - Saturday 10pm

New Delhi - Sunday 2:30am

Melbourne - Sunday 7am

Who’s invited? All Pond members, including Turtles! You don’t have to be a writer to have an opinion on the episodes that could inspire a writer! Everyone has valuable opinions about the show and could spark conversation and inspiration.

Where will we meet? In the discord server. There is a special channel for us to chat in so we don’t disturb other chats happening at the same time.

How does it work? On our own, whenever we have time, we all watch two episodes of SPN. At the appointed time, we all get together and chat about them. Although we have several questions to consider and creative ideas for you to do if you want, there is no pressure to actually have answers to these questions or have created anything prior to the chat. Didn’t get to watch them? No biggie! We’ve all watched these episodes enough that we can probably talk about them without rewatching them!

More info under the cut!

What questions should we consider while we watch? We have a few questions you can keep in mind while you’re watching the episodes:

Are there any “fanfiction gaps” in this episode? Any places between scenes where a juicy story could happen? (For example, one scene ends at night, but the next scene begins during the day, and what did they do with all of that time?)

How would the episode be different if you changed one thing? What is changed is up to you. It could be as complex as a character making a different choice, or as simple or silly as someone wearing a funny hat throughout part or all of the episode.

What about this episode would you like to see happen differently? How would making that change affect future episodes?

List any parts of each episode that you think could be jumping-off points for a fic. Like, in the pilot, how did Sam meet their friend who was in the bar with them?

How would the episode be different if there were another character involved like a reader insert character?

Do any of the themes we've already discussed in The Archive (See the bottom of the doc under the heading "Thematic docs") show up in this episode? Does this episode bring up any new themes we should be watching out for in the future?

What else can we do before the chat? You can add any notes you have about the episodes we'll be discussing to The Archives! In addition, besides just discussing the fanfiction possibilities in every episode, we also want to encourage you to create things centered around the episodes we’re discussing and share them with the rest of us. Things like:

Write some meta about some part of the episode. What does this episode show us about one or more of the characters?

Write a fic based on the episode. Share a link to your fic in the discussion and we can talk about it!

Make a playlist that you feel reflects the mood of the episode.

Make some art or a photo collage or edits to go along with the episode.

We look forward to seeing everything you create! Be sure to tag us so we can reblog your work!

When I was younger and researching the autism diagnosis criteria and symptoms, I thought “oh I couldn’t POSSIBLY be autistic.” Because when I read “takes everything literally” I thought it literally meant EVERYTHING and I was like “I don’t take EVERYTHING literally, just most things!” And I just realized the other day that it didn’t actually mean EVERYTHING and that was an overstatement.

Upcoming Event: A Big Gay Market!

This Sunday, April 28th, we’re thrilled to be among the 100+ vendors who will be selling their wares at Albany’s quarterly A Big Gay Market! We’ll be there with our latest books and merch, and all our old favorites, and a few new never-before-seen things too, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Washington Park on the Knox Street Mall in Albany. The forecast is looking gorgeous – high of 73, partial sun, chance of showers in the afternoon and evening. Definitely a day to wear sunscreen!

Even better? 10% of our net profits will be donated to Camp Unirondack!

So, if you’re anywhere near the Capital District of New York and are looking for an awesome opportunity to do some shopping, get some fabulous stuff, and support a great cause, make sure to come say hi (and claim your very own free tiny duck…)!

BANGER of a scene as the gang order burgers in a diner. Dean tries to hit on Mandy the waitress but so badly that she is repulsed, but then Cas unintentionally wins her over with his autistic knowledge of the type of food cheese is. Cas sees Mandy smiling at him and is disturbed. Dean realises she’s hitting on his husband and deploys the Dimples of Discontent before pretending to be super mega cool with the fact that Cas just struck it lucky. He’s soooo normal about this. It’s GREAT.

meanwhile Sam just wants the fucking wifi password and Mary is apparently on the Atkins diet.

Be glad you didn't watch This Is Us. Justin's character was very different. Kevin talked, like, A LOT, always trying to figure things out about why he was the way he was, why other people were the way they were, how he felt about everything....it was a lot of talking. And he made a lot of stupid mistakes that were little, yet big, and then he talked about them while he learned about them, and it was a whole journey. Justin's character in Tracker says literally the least number of words he needs to say to communicate. I keep thinking, "Oh, he'll talk about his family, now!" Nope. "Oh, he'll tell this person this piece of info we learned to get them to back the hell off!" Nope. "Oh, he'll explain this thing-" Nope. I've been watching from the start and I still feel like I don't know him much at all. It clearly pains him when he has to explain something to another character instead of just DOING the thing.

I never got into This Is Us. Am I going to like Justin Hartley in Tracker?
