#for god’s sake
Toby and Josh have once again made me INCREDIBLY emotional, so remember when Josh is shot and Toby is the one to find him? I don’t think there is enough emphasis on the fact that Toby gets the news that his brother is safely landed from the Columbia space shuttle mere MINUTES before Josh is shot. Toby has a few minutes to feel complete and utter relief that he didn’t lose his brother and joke with the President about it before he’s hit with the terror that is finding his other brother, not blood, but no less his family, bleeding on the ground, dying. Toby gets one brother back, and it’s framed as being at the expense of his other brother.
#yes yes i know#Sam is Toby’s found family brother it’s in the text and all that#but hear me out#josh and Toby go through HELL together#they work together through so many crises and traumas but in the end they are still brothers#for god’s sake#they have a FIST FIGHT in Toby’s office and don’t speak to each other for so long afterward#up until Toby is indicted for the shuttle leak he and Josh don’t interact once#then we see Josh in the final legs of the santos campaign visiting his surrogate brother’s place and first fighting#but then admitting that josh himself messed up too#and then the next time we hear from the pair of them Toby is being called Bob and Josh is relying on him to help him win the campaign#they fought it out like real siblings do and then they drank together and came out the other end brothers once more#absolutely wild to me#josh and Toby’s brotherly relationship is not something that I ever expected to make me this emotional but it’s so SPECIAL#all of the senior staff + Charlie and Donna have the sweetest relationships and are often sibling-like#but Josh and Toby’s fistfight and Josh being shot after Toby JUST got his brother back just emphasizing how much they truly are brothers#also bartlet telling toby to go visit his brother at Edwards before the town hall meeting😭and then Josh is SHOR#*SHOT#you just know Toby never left DC let alone the east coast before he KNEW that Josh was gonna be fine#Toby telling Bartlet that he needs a break when he’s calling for the FBI to investigate West Virginia white pride#that man NEVER took a break once after Josh was shot :((#toby ziegler#josh lyman#jed bartlet#west wing#the west wing#in the shadow of two gunmen#what kind of day has it been#tww#ww

Tech-Bros and grifters stop reinventing fascism for 5 fucking minutes challenge FAILED!!!!!!!!!!
Elon Musk keeps empowering these ghastly grifters and domineering dweebs with daddy issues (Syril Karn?) and it’s led to a whole new generation of frightened middle aged men and scared little boys embracing anti-intellectualism and media illiteracy.
As well as other ghastly shit like objectivism, white supremacist panic breeding, and so on.
Which in turn leads to them endlessly promoting said ideas using them to bitch about humanities degrees and ideas like equality.
It’s sickening shit!
These people need to choke on a bullet!
At the least.
Or send them on a one way trip to fucking Mars!
It can become their home. It will become their tomb!
It’s bullshit!
It’s like the second coming of Ayn Rand, just without the bitterness and a friendlier face.
It’s selfish, fascistic, philistinism dressed up as counterculture.
An empire pretending to be a rebellion!
End it!
Feel free to reblog this if you wish btw.

Imagine being so weak you feel the need to leave an anon message instead of blocking and moving on like an adult. Get steppin’ honey

In Dual Destines, when Pearl is introduced, this line is randomly in white, while all the rest are blue. So I humbly ask
Who the fuck is he talking to right now?

The universe can stop now. It can stop. I’ve had enough now, it can chill out. I’m good. It can stop.

I hate the “open floor plan” that everyone is obsessed with in houses now. I want nooks and crannies and bizarre floor plans. I don’t need to be able to see what someone is doing on the other side of the house. I want places to hide and lurk and dwell in the shadows. I am the beast who awaits in the labyrinth

imagine being someone at new rome university and not knowing percy is the same guy as “percy jackson, son of poseidon, two-time hero of olympus, former praetor” because the thought doesn’t even cross your mind. like… he’s percy. he’s a total frat boy. on a normal night, he walks into a party, refers to everyone as bro or dude, socializes with every living (and not-living) person in the room, makes at least 50 sarcastic comments, plays 12 rounds of beer pong, drinks way too much, and then skates around campus on his skateboard yelling “I LOVE NEW YORK” (which makes no sense, because they’re in california) until someone calls his girlfriend to come get him.
and then one day there’s an attack, and frat boy percy is all of a sudden a fighting machine. he’s yelling battle cries alongside the praetors frank zhang and hazel levesque as they lead everyone into battle. (why is he with the praetors? and why…. why in the world do the praetors seem to be following his lead?) his sword slashes through armies of monsters faster than you’ve ever seen. he’s controlling the entire river surrounding the camp, creating huge waves as tall as skyscrapers that crash down all around him, wiping out monsters and causing mass destruction to his enemies’ ranks. the sky is suddenly dark above you, ice-cold water droplets are slashing through the air, and the wind is blowing so aggressively that it’s making it hard to stand up steadily. because he’s somehow created a hurricane.
and he looks terrifying. you can feel the power radiating off of him. he’s like a god. or maybe a monster. it’s hard to tell. you’re a little scared of him, to be honest. but also in total awe, because it’s extraordinary. he’s extraordinary.
frat boy percy is not who you thought he was.

frankly, the people whose kneejerk reaction to bisan asking for a global strike form the 21st-28th is to say that it takes years to organize a general strike are really unhelpful! no one is saying otherwise, but palestine will be a smoking crater if we all wait for years to do anything - bisan is asking us to do something now. Like are we only supposed to do something if we can do it perfectly??? At some point it’s a valid critique about the work that goes into social movement, and at another point I feel like some people are just trying to absolve themselves from not putting any effort into observing a week of economic inaction.
like idk! I get it, okay! People have bills to pay that don’t magically go away for a strike, we don’t have nearly enough social infrastructure in place to support people to fully stop going to work for a week. But fuck, dude! Stop immediately responding in such a defeatist way! Cut out unnecessary purchases! Try to shop local! Put more effort into promoting Palestinian voices online! Attend a protest, call a local rep, do something!
