just thinking about his dark materials and how lyra can read the golden compass perfectly as a child, but as she gains more experience — as she truly experiences the world and what it means to live and lose — her natural, effortless interpretation of the compass fades away. it’s not that she can’t read it, it’s that the pure childlike interpretation of it is buried under all these adult experiences. and how she has to then teach herself how to do it all over again, but this time not through instinct but study and diligence and critical thought. and how that’s a good thing because it means she actually understands it more deeply.

Karadec: Okay, so Gio doesn’t seem to secretly have plans to kidnap/kill Morgan. Thank god. I can (slightly) relax.
*5 seconds later*
Morgan: Soooooo, bad news, turns out our latest killer - the one who likes to kill people in creative and horrible ways - is now obsessed with me and is focusing only on me playing his murderous games.
Karadec:
Karadec: *loud internal screaming*

What I really like about 'High Potential' (besides Kaitlin Olson getting the spotlight) is it's finally a "genius" and/or crime-solving character who doesn't act like a cold, rude asshole. Well, unless she's confronting a cold, rude asshole. She's affected by crime scenes and upset families instead of being apathetic or annoyed.
It's not that hard to escape the strict Sherlock model. It shouldn't be this rare.

I love High Potential as a whole but especially for their portrayal of family.
Morgan having such a healthy relationship with her ex (Ludo, I love you so much), him being there for her and the kids, and loving all three kids equally is so refreshing to see.
They could've easily gone the "my ex is a douche" route but they didn't. They give us all these wholesome family scenes every week.

The amount of times I could have been that white girl in the horror movie could honestly be a movie in itself and it’s honestly a waste that my entire life isn’t constantly recorded on film because it would be HILARIOUS

lightsabers have one fatal flaw: you cannot use them to homoerotically tip up somebody’s chin during a sword fight. that would hurt very bad actually

honestly I do think a Padmé who was actually principled and courageous would have been a fantastic character if they’d managed to write her that way but part of me really does love the mess of ‘I can fix him’ living-in-a-barbie-dreamhouse-fantasyland Padmé we actually end up with when all the pieces of her character that we actually got are cobbled together

listen i respect the fact that darth vader is really evil, in every way, almost all of the time. but i'm going to be real with you, i feel very bad for him because under that armor he has necrotic skin that is rotting and he is on chemicals outside of his knowledge or control, and his boss does not give him anesthetic for medical procedures that involve spinal surgery and he gets electrocuted regularly by that boss. i am very worried about him and i think the sepsis is killing what is left of his brain cells. that is my poor little wheeze wheeze, and i understand that he has killed a lot of jedi babies but i think his liver is about to explode from all the stress it is under. i care a lot about darth vader's many lung infections and comparatively little for the jedi babies. i hope this helps.

went to my favourite bar tonight (may 4th) and the dj was literally playing the club remix of the imperial march as I walked in. unparalled experience.
there's a lot of things that would make me instantly dissociate but that has to be at the top of the list
