woah what's "eat shit and die"? that sounds cool
“What do you want?” Tails asked as he pulled the door open, using it to block the gerbil's view of his gun.
“Hey there, son.” The man gave him a smile that the fox assumed was meant to be friendly, but it just looked creepy, “What's your name?” He questioned, leaning down to be at level with the kid.
“None of your business.” Tails said with a glare, leaning his body against the door to block the man from entering.
The gerbil frowned at him, rising to his full height, “Well, that's not very polite.”
“I don't give a shit.” The kit placed his left finger on the gun’s trigger, “You need to leave.”
“Are you here all on your own?” The gerbil asked, ignoring the kid's demand.
“What do you care?” Tails raised a brow at the man, unnerved by the way he was looking into the house. Searching for something.
“Well, I have a community not far from here.” The gerbil said, pointing to the right as he met the younger’s gaze again, “Why don't you come with me? You'll be a lot safer there than being out here on your own.”
“Not a chance.” Tails shook his head, quickly denying the offer. He had a really bad feeling about this guy, “Tell me what you want or leave.”
“Lone wolf, huh?” The man mumbled, eyeing the fox up and down. “Fine. I'm looking for my people. They got lost not too long ago, you'd definitely remember them if you've ran into them.”
“I don't stay around people, so you're out of luck.” The fox said, intending to end the conversation there and closed the door.
But the gerbil caught it with his foot, his smile strained now, “Entertain me, will ya? I wanna take a look around, see if they've been here.”
“Not happening.”
“I'm not asking, son.”
“I don't care.”
surprise, it's another apocalypse au fic lmao

Books of 2024: THE SCOURGE BETWEEN STARS by Ness Brown.
Devoured this in one intense sitting last night! It gets right into the "fucked up shit happens in space" (as I was promised it would!), and I liked that you could see the author's astrophysics background peeking through without derailing the tension.
(And, for real: Don't Open The FUCKING Door, holy shit.)

sometimes i get caught up in constantine's old man era and forget that by issue 9 of hellblazer he was only 35 years old. fuckin introduced the guardian of the green to the world of magic, helped stop the crisis on infinite earths, defeated a centuries-old wizard cult, saved new york from a hunger demon, and lost most of his friends before he turned 35. and then everything he's done and gone through in the 35 years since? god damn.

workwear propaganda i cant recommend work pants enough. construction/warehouse/outdoor doesnt matter they come in a million cuts & colors
good work pants will last you ages and survive almost anything. they have SO many pockets and the best part is that theyre made in a way so you can attach EVEN MORE pockets. theres hidden ones for knee pads too

while the whole hospital scene is an example of the joel that everyone has been wary of, it's also a joel that hasn't been seen in 20 years. like, the whole episode is.
this joel is joking and gentle and attentive to try and cheer up his daughter. he's worried and fumbling a little in the excusion but diving headfirst in trying to comfort her and show how much she means to him and asking her to allow him to help her find/be a reason to keep fighting to be here. just like she is for him.
and then people in uniform with guns threaten her (again) and he has this moment of helplessness (again). only. only.
this time, it's not an immediate death. he has time this go around to actually do something.
and he does it without a second thought. in the aftermath of the opening of this reprise, he becomes the one man army he couldn't be for sarah. yeah the hospital is the joel everyone has been wary of, but its that joel with the purpose of joel-from-before and god help any motherfuckers who get in his way.
in the game, when marlene and joel are talking, she tells him: "this isn't about you, or even her - there is no other choice here."
she was right. there was no other choice, never was, not for joel.

Watched the new Sandman show. I liked a lot of what they did in terms of casting choices EXCEPT you mean to tell me that in a world in which there are 1.4 billion Chinese people alone, not to mention other East Asians, South-East Asians, South Asians and Pacific Islanders there would not be a SINGLE Asian dream? Admittedly I mostly was looking for East Asian representation but I do not recall seeing that many South Asians either. Everyone is going on about how the show has great LGBT+ representation, which admittedly it does and I’m happy about it, you’re telling me that in a story about an entity that spans human consciousness and takes part in the States and London (which I don’t think anyone is going to argue with me on how diverse the populations of those geographies are) there is only One East-Asian presenting character of any significance and she’s portrayed as a Dragon Lady????? Congrats to everyone who’s happy to see themselves represented on screen in the shows they love. Unfortunately, some of us are still left out in the cold
