Sometimes something puts me into my context as a queer born in the 80s and growing up in Section 28 England, and there's nothing else really to do except have a little cry about it.
“There’s a generation of queer people grieving for the childhood they never had,” Haigh says. “I think there’s a sense of nostalgia for something we never got, because we were so tormented. It feels close to grief. It dissipates, but it’s always there."

Arthur, after listening to Mina: Huh. I've never heard anyone call themselves a "fiend" fondly before. Let alone about public transport.
Jonathan, leaning against him: I know~ 💗💗💗
Arthur: weren't you ready to bite someone's spleen 5 seconds ago
Jonathan in Murder Mode (🔪) is the antithesis to Jonathan in Mina Mode (💖)

"The key thing was of course, the fact that Rick has PTSD and that's very much what's driving a lot of his behavior and being in a place of that level of vulnerability, back with the love of his life in that way.
It's also the thing he fears, the loss of her. It manifests itself in a way that is visceral and leads to the lovemaking not just being about love, but the revealing of pain and trauma and fear. That informs Michonne, that she can't just blast him into making sense. There's something deeper going on here that he can't verbalize. She has to help him get through in a different way. So she gets to see him, as well, as he reveals what's really in there, the wound. That's going to happen most likely in that most vulnerable space." — Danai Gurira
"Yeah, I think it is about pain. As Danai just said, it's about him wanting her and then fearing what he's about to unlock again. He gets to sort of articulate it in the scene further in the episode, when he gets to say that, 'I can't do this again. I haven't got the capacity to do this again. I've worked out how to die and live again.' So it is an absolutely necessary scene that allows Michonne to realize that there's something really broken here, more broken than she's ever anticipated. [...]
So the scene was about a real intimacy, a sort of frightening intimacy. This is a part of his personality he has shut down. It's almost like he's trying to stop himself from feeling this love again. She sees that and she just says, 'Just trust. We're back. We're the same...' I find it very moving. I think it's a very, very moving scene, because it's about them connecting in a way that he's had to deny for seven years. He's denied that connection for the sake of living on in this half life for the CRM" — Andrew Lincoln

New farmer (for 1.6 update reasons).
His name is Death and he's really death. He's pretty quiet and just wants to live in peace with his chickens. Tries to interact with the town as little as possible but is really curious about them and how they live and is super satisfied to simply watch them - but as the new person it seems no one wants to let that happen.

the only way I want Duke of Hell Crowley, is if he becomes an absolute Nihilist with a twist of "actually the world can just burn. I don't care".
Aziraphale, tries his best to ruin the second coming by tempting new Jesus and teaching them to be bad and Crowley trying to get it to succeed by teaching new Jesus to be good.
because I genuinely cannot imagine Crowley going back to hell for any other reason. He hates it.
honestly this would be a hilarious way to get Aziraphale to see the good in being "bad". It could also be a hilarious way to get them to rekindle bc Crowley loves when Azi is bad.

i am going to be honest. i'm getting the feeling that the move to abc has been as reinvigorating for you as it has been for the cast and crew, if not more. we love to see it lol <3
I've been watching this show since season 1. I've been following it in fandom spaces since season 3 though. And I watched Fox abandon it from season 3 to season 6. And it's really sad to see such a great show get mistreated like it was. So I'm so glad to see it get treated better. I'm glad to see it get the love and care it deserves.

so about adhd
i know there’s that whole thing with neurotypical people saying “just focus”/“just get your work done” or “try harder” or something to that effect
and i think it’s hard for people to comprehend the words “i can’t” because to them it just comes across as “i don’t want to” or “i refuse to”; people automatically assume that the person with adhd is just being lazy
but it’s not just an “i can’t”; it’s an “im not able to”
im not super familiar with chemicals and brain functions and stuff (please educate me if you can/want to!!) but i am fairly certain that one of the causes/results of having adhd is that our brains don’t process dopamine correctly
dopamine, the chemical responsible for things like motivation and satisfaction and being able to focus, does not get processed properly in our head

'I flirted with the idea that instead of being trans that I was just a cross-dresser (a quirk, I thought, that could be quietly folded into an otherwise average life) and that my dysphoria was sexual in nature, and sexual only. And if my feelings were only sexual, then, I wondered, perhaps I wasn’t actually trans.
I had read about a book called The Man Who Would Be Queen, by a Northwestern University professor who believed that transwomen who were attracted to women were really confused fetishists, they wanted to be women to satisfy an autogynephilia. And though I first read about this book in the context of its debunkment and disparagement, I thought about the electricity of slipping on those tights, zipping up those boots, and a stream of guilt followed. Maybe this professor was right, and maybe I was only a fetishist. Not trans, just a misguided boy.
About a year later, on the Internet, I come across a transwoman who added a unique message to the crowd refuting this professor. Oh, I wish I remember who this woman was, and I wish even more that I could do better than paraphrase her, but I remember her saying something like this: “Well, of course I feel sexy putting on women’s clothing and having a woman’s body. If you feel comfortable in your body for the first time, won’t that probably mean it’ll be the first time you feel comfortable, too, with delighting in your body as a sexual thing?”'
-Casey Plett, Consciousness
