I feel like people miss the point of the "war is bad" message

What it's supposed to mean is that war is terrible, it's destructive, it ruins lives, it leaves scars, and you should only partake in it when there are no other options, because even if you win, even if you survive, you will not be the same, which is why the phrase used to be more commonly known as "war is hell"

But "war is bad" seems to have been construed by people in fandom into "any fighting is bad, if you fight you're morally terrible and impure, you should not fight at all, no matter what", this is annoying in fandom, as it often misses the point fiction is trying to make, but what's worrisome is when people apply this to real life, as I have seen people do regarding russia's invasion of Ukraine

And that's almost never the point of "War is Bad" works

Works like lotr, atla, transformers, the clone wars, etc all have themes on how horrible war is, but they categorically do not say it is wrong to fight, what they say is usually along the lines of "war is terrible, and what makes it so terrible is that we have no choice but to fight, it would be ideal if we didn't have to fight at all, but we must fight, because not fighting is not an option, because not fighting, not opposing tyranny, conquest, and evil only allows those things to exist unimpeded"

But it’s also so funny, because he didn’t get that waterbed!!

He switched bodies with a sleazy Area 51 employee who decided to use his time in Mulder’s body to relive his bachelor days. Scully was right to be confused/disgusted by that proclamation

mulder: we're stuck in a timeloop and blow up every single time, sometimes one of us gets shot, we're stuck on this stupid monday, i am having the worst day in fucking ever, my waterbed had a leak, i got abducted by aliens, we're having a baby

scully: since when do you have a waterbed??????????

i can't get over how offended she is that mulder has a waterbed she doesn't know about. scully really went if you get a bed it will be OUR bed, otherwise you'd choose the shittiest mattress known to mankind.

they make me sick to my stomach

I do feel like the occasional slip into “dealing with kids” mode is good! People need to treated with patience and love and enthusiasm and to be reminded of who we are at the core.

professors who have only interacted with other academics for years: “what do you MEAN you don’t know multi-variable calculus yet??”

professors with small kids: “thank you for not putting the lab equipment in your mouths when I turn my back”

What’s your favourite line from good omens?

The invisible and unbreakable one that joins Crowley and Aziraphale.

Lmao how is this real, "the ambient sounds of the world were wrong, sir"

[olfactoryventriloquism]

Plenty of highly intelligent people end up getting sucked in to cults because they just wanted people to hang out with. There are antivaxxer nurses. Your ability to act on empirical reason breaks down fast if your social and emotional needs aren't being met.
