I started a Lone Star rewatch by watching the pilot last night and it was so great. I had many thoughts, but the most horrible was what if TK had died when he overdosed...would Owen still have moved to Austin? I wonder if he would have because he would be so guilt-ridden over not being able to save his son and he would still be dealing with the cancer diagnosis. He might have seen it as a needed escape. He would have either done that or thrown himself even deeper into his work with the 252. Really, though, the thought of Owen in Austin without TK is almost too horrible to contemplate. Especially thinking of Owen running into Officer Reyes on the job, neither of them having any idea that they would have been family. And of course Carlos, lonely and so distant from his own family...😭

I am once again explaining that in order for walkable cities and public transit to work for disabled people, there also need to be more public bathrooms available in and around those areas. Not just places to sit down or rest. Bathrooms. We need accessible, clean bathrooms. With sharps bins. With multiple wheelchair accessible stalls. With an area to set down supplies needed to maintain one’s body. Even if it’s not being used to get rid of bodily waste, bathrooms are one of the few spaces disabled people have to maintain some sort of privacy when they’re in the middle of a flare up or they need to take medication or what have you. Designing a public space? Include bathrooms.

something about foreshadowing being more prominent the second time around reading a story but in a way that the meaning is changed forever and you can never view a story the same as you once did before. do you know what i mean.

Big thanks to @pragmatic-optimist and @welcometololaland for helping me/putting up with me while I wrote this. Google Maps, the city of Van Horn, the National Park Service, and these random Eastern European backpackers who put their journey to the summit on YouTube so I could follow along and take notes for authenticity.

On average, two hundred people die in US National Parks each year.

This year, TK is going to be one of them.

He knew the second the bird popped out from beneath the underbrush to his left that he was a goner. His head might have said it’s only a bird, stupid, but his body went into fight or flight mode and jerked violently to the right. Before he could stop himself, his heel was on the edge of the narrow trail, and his momentum was throwing him off it and down the steep embankment.

He’s still alive when he stops sliding a good fifty or sixty feet down from the trail. His hands are cut up from catching on shrubs and rocks as he tried to slow himself down. He’s lucid—he knows the month, year, and who the president is. He remembers his old address back in Brooklyn, the name of the elementary school he attended, and the name of the restaurant on Spring Street that his mother took him to before she brought him to rehab the last time.
