I am just watching season 8 of Supernatural for the first time and omfg it’s soooo good. All the feels. And Meg reappeared and then died within one episode and it was horrible because it was the episode I realized that I love her so much and omg, the plot and the tablets and Kevin and Charlie and Benny and the Men of Letters and every scene Dean and Cas have seems like it purposefully romantic.  I can’t even. I have lost the ability to even. And I haven’t even finished the season yet. 

Why, yes I do ship Dean/Lisa, Destiel, and Megstiel all simultaneously. 

I need to make it right.

Science is not enough, religion is not enough, art is not enough, politics and economics are not enough, nor is love, nor is duty, nor is action however disinterested, nor, however sublime, is contemplation. Nothing short of everything will really do

The wounded child inside many females is a girl who was taught from early childhood on that she must become something other than herself, deny her true feelings, in order to attract and please others.

We’re used to hearing that women make about 71 cents for every dollar a man makes. In that statistic women’s wages are calculated as a function of men’s wages; men’s wages are the standard (the $1) against which women’s wages are calculated. In this way, the discrimination against women is visible…

But what if we… expressed men’s wages as a function of women’s wages? What if we said that for every dollar earned by a woman, men make $1.34? Then it wouldn’t be the discrimination that was visible - it would be the privilege. Just for being a male, a male worker received an additional 34 cents… the unearned benefits that accrue to men, just for being men.

Flutiebear: Rambling My Way Through Thedas: It's okay to critically analyze your pop culture as if it were literature.

flutiebear:

BECAUSE IT IS.

Pop culture is culture. It IS literature. Every book you ever read for English class, every play and poem and short story, it once was new, and fresh, and contemporary.

Shakespeare was like the Whedon of his time (or the Kripke, or the Rowling, or the Moffat, whoever you like)….
