I really hope young folks just discovering Leverage understand that in 2008 a Tesla meant basically the opposite of what it means in 2025. They were so exciting. We were so hopeful.

sometimes people will be like "just lost a follower over my last post" and every time I am baffled by the idea of 1) knowing exactly how many followers you have 2) assuming they unfollowed you for something specific and 3) POSTING about it

Sabrina the Teenage Witch – 5.09: Lost at 'C'

On my local weather channel theres this small 20 somethings guy who does the minor weather and my family is so enchanted by him. He wears the most egregious suits and ties that make my grandparents go off the rails. Sometimes he blends in with the green screen and my grandparents go farther off the rails. My entire family calls him "sheldon" because any skinny white geeky guy is Sheldon Cooper to them. There is currently a huge tornado on the way and they sent Sheldon to go check it out. Sheldon sounds like he's crying in the middle of this horrible rain and my grandparents are so upset about it. Sheldon could die out there. Why did they have to sacrifice him? Sacrificing their young. My grandmother has started a grudge against the main weather man for abusing poor poor Sheldon. I will update if Sheldon survives.

Big fan of like video games/tv shows that change up their title screens/opening and ending credits slightly over the course of the story based off plot events……it’s like oh FUCK a character who just died is MISSING from the TITLE SCREEN now!!!!!!!!!! Holy SHIT!!!!!!!!!;!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love when there’s a really bending heavy episode because you just KNOW Sokka is about to get the dumbest C plot

I love how "Sinners" didn't villify the sinners in the movie. Sammie's father told him that playing music for "drunkards and philanderers who abandon their family responbilities to sweat all over each other" was a sin. And he was right about the kind of people going to the juke joint: Delta Slim is an alcoholic, and Pearline a cheater. It would have been easy to villify them, but the movie tells us that despite their flaws, they are humans worthy of love, respect and freedom.

Delta Slim drinks because he's traumatized by the horrors Black people of his time face. And he's kind and compassionate, encouraging and reassuring Sammie, and sacrificing himself to save everyone else.

Pearline literally saved Sammie's life and sacrificed herself to protect him, a boy she had only known for a day. It shows her kindness because she could have easily stayed back when Remmick tried to bite Sammy and not endangered her life more than necessary.

The movie shows us that preachers blindly condemning those sinners are wrong: Sammie is only alive because drunkards, philanderers and gangsters (Smoke) gave their lives to protect him. They are people, with flaws and qualities.

I love how nuanced the movie is: Sammie's father is not wrong about the kind of people Sammie wants to associate with and their potential bad influence, but he's wrong about them being evil and not deserving of respect.

A physicist, a biologist, and a mathematician are assigned to watch an empty building. On the first day, one person goes into the building, and nobody comes out. On the second day, one person goes into the building, and nobody comes out. On the third day, nobody goes into the building, but three people come out.

The physicist writes in his notebook, "It appears that our initial observations might have been incorrect."

The biologist writes in his notebook, "Clearly, the two people we saw go into the building must have reproduced somehow."

The mathematician writes in his notebook, "If one more person goes into that building, then it will be empty."
