#SPN #firstwatch Season 15 eps 15x6-15x15. So on the plus side there were finally some episode that were well written, worked thematically & with good acting. On the other hand WTF is with the frankenstein mixup of plots & tropes. Chuck is canonically a bad writer, was he the muse for the season? 1/

Suptober - Day 7 | Surprise
#suptober25 #destiel #spnfanart #spnfamily

An illustration depicting Dean Winchester from Supernatural running into the foreground, yelling and looking b behind him in fear and panic. Off to the right side is Castiel who is poking his head into frame, a concerned expression on his face as he says “Dean?”
Behind Dean is a jump scare animatronic that was a big pumpkin. But someone (Dean) pressed the button and three demonic pumpkin heads flew out like the snakes in a can toy. There is a spirit Halloween sign in the background as well as shopping aisles.

Today a young asexual nonbinary neurospicy person said they like talking to me because I gave them an idea of what their life could be like in 25 yrs being all those things at 50 & content. Boy did that hit me in the feels. 50 shouldn't be an elder & there should be more of us alive & thriving

cool so how about instead of trans rights, we go after the rights you HAVE to win the national election. Still ok with that? Don't worry we'll say we aren't erasing you as we let people treat you like a second class citizen and deny you basic rights. It's just a long-horizon strategy.

He was a scumbag when he was my mayor, he's a scumbag now. Probably will be the Democratic nominee for President. Remember Clinton signed DOMA into law. The Democratic party has never cared about ALL people.

Fuck Gavin Newsom. I will never vote for him and you shouldn't either.

Excerpt from an article discussing LGBT+ protections in California legislation. It states that Governor Newsom neither signed nor vetoed certain bills. One bill strengthened protections under Sen. Scott Wiener’s “State of Refuge” law. The highlighted portion reads: “At least four bills directly addressed trans protections,” followed by examples such as healthcare and patient confidentiality, streamlining legal name and gender changes, nondiscrimination in health insurance, and inclusive homelessness programs.

Trying to go to a Vancouver queer trans event. It's not physically accessible. Let's see if we get some casual racism & anti indigenous rhetoric too. Why do I bother?

I know is probably a joke but as someone who has been in that situation disabling them once and running is smarter than continuing the fight. But do use as much lethal force as you can, abusers are counting on you caring more about them than your own safety. They will try to wear you down physically

Let me get this straight: Link, a Black user, got banned for calling out the Bluesky CEO for following a racist. That’s not a good look, especially given Bluesky’s historical treatment of Black users here on bluesky.

Threads really is nothing but ⚪ Karens complaining about the consequences of their actions & centering themselves in literally every situation where someone else is targeted more. I thought that's what facebook was for?

student: oh so that’s when the whole country realized they were living under fascism

also white folks. THIS IS EXACTLY WHO WE ARE & absolutely predictable. Learn some history & look at why you didn't see it coming & then actually do something. No one has time for white fragility so get with it. It's the least we can do.

Imani Gandy Corn 🎃 @angryblacklady.blacksky.app · 8d

I think what’s most frustrating right now for Black and Indigneous people is waiting for the bulk of white folks to catch up.

At some point the “this isn’t who we are” and “I didn’t have this on my bingo card” has to end and y’all will catch up, right? RIGHT?

WE NEED YOU TO CATCH UP.
