Universe where the Gravity Falls forest is loosely connected to The Unknown and when Bill tears into the dimension, Beast!Wirt, who senses that something is seriously amiss, is like.
"You. What are you doing."
"Ohhhhh look, a wild little demon, crawling out of underworld's bushes- Can't say I've met you before! Well well well, I'm Bill Chiper, the one and only ruler of this dimension~ You?"
"Um. The Pilgrim. At your service."
"You have manners! What a delight! I'd thought you were some feral midget. What with how you appeared from your little domain..."
"It's not- you know what, nothing. Nothing. But... Would you mind closing that big ahh rip in the sky? It's disturbing the frogs."
"Ha ha HA! The frogs...
Nuh-UH!"
"Fym nuh-uh."
And then after some back and forth, Wirt, visibly done with Bill's bull, treathens everyone with the watchful eyes of black turtles. Because that's literally the best, scariest thing he can come up with.
But the other demons have no idea what this means, that the turtles he's talking about are pint sized on a good day, and they come to the only conclusion-
The AXOLOTL has minions.
Cue a lot of hurried apologies, demons scrambling over eachother to disappear back into the darkness they had come from, and a confused Wirt.
"How'd you do that?"
Dipper would ask, his sense of danger knocked sideways for the time being. He just faced a three dimensional triangle for fairness' sake.
"Uh. Bye."
And that's the last the Pines family ever hears of The Pilgrim.

Long Whitley rant warning
I reeeeeally need some Whitley insight and backstory, because as much as we go on about what would’ve been Whitley’s big moment in standing up to his abuser once and for all; I think I also see why this boy would honestly look up to the man in many cases.
As it is common, children often look up or tend to idealize a ceirtain figure in their life and more so when there are other ones that are toxic towards them.
So, like- ok let me explain.
Whitley doesn’t like his sisters because they left him with two abusive parents, that much is canon confirmed. They probably spent all their childhoods ignoring their younger brother and that hurt him.
Willow negleted him and casted him aside, leaving him alone mostly with Jacques. Sure she was there but that doesn’t mean she was present. She knowingly let her children indure the wrath of her husband, which for the record, got worse after Nicholas died.
If we take into account that Weiss was like 7 when her grandfather died they Whitley was just a baby, a little kid. He was born when the family was already crumbling and watched it fall apart when he was young, but because he was so young he can’t pinpoint a specific time when it all crashed down on them.
As far as he’s concerned it was always like this, and kids don’t know anything. They can’t comprehend the intricate and complicated bs that happens around him. But seeing the tense aura around him he probably grew up learning how to walk on eggshells. That’s why he’s so good at flying under the radar.
Ok, so. Willow and sisters, out of the picture. Jacques probably decided to monopolize his only son’s time and mind, completely enclosing him mentally towards the others in their family that were less subtle in their negative behaviour. He planted the idea that he was the only good figure in his life, that everyone else is bad and that although not perfect, he would never neglet him like the other’s did.
It all comes around on being alone. That’s why I strongly believe Whitley Schnee has both Attachment issues and  Abandonment issues.
Getting close to someone is like a gamble. Everyone he meets ends up leaving and that’s why he keeps interactions at two arms lenght to protect himself. The only person that hasn’t left him would be Jacques, not only that but also he give Whitley attention. It’s not a healthy one in the least, but it’s all he has. THAT’S WHY he was so devastated when Jacques got arrested.
Sure, he knew by then what an abusive jerk his father was, but the roots were planted so deep and had grown so srongly his attachment towards the man couldn’t just be shaken off so easily. And now the only person that never left him had abandoned him because of one of the sisters that never cared about him.
In no way I’m defending Jacques or hating on Weiss, I think that much is obvious, but I do blame them in the person that Whitley came out to be mentally.
There’s a lot of cases where kids are affected by the decitions of those fam members that left long ago in a toxic houshold. To feel safe they grab on to their abuser and idolize them in order to dodge punishment or are made to belive whatever their abuser tells them.
It’s a tricky subject to get into and I’m no psychologist but at least I had to try explaining from my point of view.
Lastly, what I’m trying to say is, I want Whitley backstory to see how his relationship with his father shaped his ideals and how he interacted with his mother and sisters before and after all hell broke loose.
it would help a lot and save me time from speculating and writing essays like this that are far more impressive than any homework I’ve ever done :’)

“Crowley is still an angel deep down” “Crowley is more of an angel than any of the archangels” “Crowley was only cast out because he needed to play his part in Armageddon, he's not a real demon” “Aziraphale wants to rebuild Heaven to be more like Crowley because he’s what an angel should be” no. Stop it. This is exactly where Aziraphale went wrong.
Crowley is 100% a demon. He's not actually a bit of an angel, and he's not cosmically better than any of the other demons we see in the series. He's much less vicious than most of them, yeah, but he's also much less vicious than most of the angels, because how “nice” a celestial being is has nothing to do with which side they're technically on. Crowley's kindness comes from him doing his best to help people despite the hurt he's suffered himself, not any sort of inherent residual or earned holiness. He was cast out just like the rest of the demons, and that's an important part of his history that shouldn't be minimized, excused, or, critically, 'corrected.'
Being angelic is not a positive or negative trait in the Good Omens universe. It's a species descriptor. Saying that Crowley is still an angel deep down because he helps people is an in-character thing for Aziraphale to think, certainly--Job and the final fifteen showed that in the worst possible way--but it's not something Crowley would ever react well to, and it's the main source of conflict in the entire "appoint you to be an angel" fiasco.
We know that Aziraphale thinks Crowley's fall was an injustice, but why? Well, because Crowley is actually Good, which means his fall was a mistake, or a test, or a regrettable error in judgment, or…something. Ineffable. Etc. The point is, he’s special, much better than those other demons, and if they can fix him and make him an angel again, everything will be fine! (So once Job's trials are over, everything will be restored to him? Praise be!) Aziraphale has to believe that Crowley's better traits come from traces of the angel he used to know and not the demon he's known for 6,000 years, because that’s how he can rationalize his incorrect view of Heaven as The Source Of Truth And Light And Good with his complicated feelings about Crowley's fall.
But Crowley's fall was not an injustice because he's actually a Good Person who didn't deserve it. Crowley's fall was an injustice because the entire system of dividing people into Good (obedient) and Bad (rebellious) is bullshit. Crowley is not an unfortunate exception to God's benevolence, he is a particularly sympathetic example of God's cruelty.
And really, Crowley doesn't behave at all like an angel, especially when he's at his best. All of the things that he's done that we as the audience consider Good are things that Heaven has directly opposed. (See: saving the goats and children in defiance of God in S2E2, convincing Aziraphale to give money to Elspeth despite Heaven's views on the "virtues of poverty" in S2E3, speaking out against the flood and the crucifixion in S1E3, tempting Aziraphale to enjoy earthly pleasures because he thinks they'll make him happy, stopping Armageddon.)
Heaven as an institution has never been about helping humanity. And that's not an issue of leadership, as Aziraphale seems to think--it's by design. Aziraphale's first official act as an angel toward humanity was to literally throw them to the lions. Giving them the sword wasn't him acting like an angel, it was just him being himself. Heaven doesn't care about humans. It's not supposed to. It's supposed to win the war against Hell, with humans as chess pieces at best and collateral damage at worst.
Yes, it's easier to think that there are forces that are supposed to be fundamentally good. It's easier to think that Aziraphale is going to show those mean archangels and the Metatron what’s coming to them and reform Heaven into what it "should" be, and that God is actually super chill and watching all of this while shipping ineffable husbands and cheering for them the whole way. And of course it's easier to take Crowley, who Aziraphale (and the audience) adores, and say that he deserves to be on the Good team much more than all those angels and demons that we don’t like. But that's not how it works. People are more complicated than that, even celestial beings.
Crowley is a demon, and the tragedy of his character is not that he's secretly a good guy who is being forced to be evil; the tragedy is that he's lived his whole life stuck between two institutional forces that are both equally hostile to the love he feels for the universe and the beings in it. There are no good and bad guys. There are no "right people." Every angel, demon, and human is capable of hurting or helping others based on their choices. That is, in fact, the entire fucking point.

I have not been following western media at all for the past couple of days but I want to know how they have reported about the freed Israel hostage who said that she was treated well with her needs met and literally even turned back to shake hands and say Shalom to those who were releasing her. Was this shown and hyped up on TV channels and news websites? Was her release video played everywhere?
I only saw a clip of Sky News (Australia I think) where they started showing her speaking to the media and immediately cut it off when she started speaking positively...
Oh and what about another Israeli who was talking about how it was their own military who had actually attacked its own people?
I always ask and look for news and updates directly from Israel like we get it from Gaza. If you search for the Tel Aviv geotag on Instagram, it's mostly people chilling in Israel or some pro-Palestine accounts. Is there a possibility that Israel stops their own people from speaking up?
I know western media loves to cherry pick things to show to curate the image that Israel and the US wants them to curate but surely they cannot omit these things.
Here's a random post I just found, adding it here for now
