You would think that Wash is the mom of blue team, right?

Wrong, it’s Tucker.

Tucker had to parent Caboose since he arrived at blood gulch, making sure he ate something other than candy, making sure he took his medicine that was often hidden in food, making a sleep schedule so Caboose went to bed on time etc etc.

And then he had Junior and you bet your ass Tucker is gonna be the best dad he can be to that kid. That is his son. His pride and joy. The reason why he keeps going even when things get tough.

Which means that by the time Wash has joined the team, Tucker is a practiced parent. He can cook, he can make schedules and (mostly) keep to them, he can have emotional talks and knows how to comfort, he remembers so much shit off the top of his head (birthdays, favorite things, etc), he always has snacks, and everyone in the blood gulch crew look to him to make the final call.

He’s their trusted responsible adult. He is the mom.

Wash is the stepdad trying his very best to earn the kids’ approval. He’s awkward around them at first as he learns how to insert himself into their pre-established dynamics.

He’s unbelievably patient and kind to them, mostly because he feels the need to make it up to them and to repay them for saving his life, but he still has to earn their respect. Even after he does get their trust and friendship, he gets sass and snark for any order he gives, but at least they listen to him (and he can snark back without it turning into an argument).

(Does this make Church the dad of blue team? Maybe. Does this mean Tucker and Wash are married? In the eyes of everyone else, yes)

#rvb #red vs blue #lavernius tucker #rvb tucker #agent washington #rvb wash #tuckington #crack #tucker is the both the mom and dad of the sim troopers #ever since his ex (church) left him to take care of the kids he’s been doing this shit on his own #the reds and blues respect the fuck outta tucker #and you can’t tell me otherwise #he got final say in whether they brought Wash with them of course they value his opinion

I am begging people giving U.S. politics commentary to have, just, a basic, basic, 6th grade citizenship class level of understanding of the relationship between the branches of government. Please. You will not get icky electoralism cooties if you learn that "Whoever is the president right now is responsible for decisions the supreme court hands down right now" is nonsense.

#not only did you not pay attention in school #you obviously didn't pay attention in church camp #when they diligently instructed a bunch of kids who couldn't vote yet #that when we COULD vote we had to vote for antiabortion presidential and senate candidates #because the president appoints federal judges and the senate confirms them #draw the little chart #and if we all work very hard to elect antiabortion presidents and senators #Roe would be overturned in a few decades #and indeed #a couple of decades later #who could have FORESEEN?#your right-wing uncle who thinks the government is making the frogs gay #and that gay immigrants are coming to take his guns and his women #has a better understanding of the relationship between the presidency and the federal judiciary than you do #because this is fucking emphasized in right wing circles!#while y'all are like #“well actually Dobbs happened under BIDEN I am very clever”#“ha ha what do you mean if reelected he'll restore Roe he's elected right now ha ha”#Biden is waiting for the current justices to die Brenda #I don't even like Biden! I'm voting for him very reluctantly!#you people's piss poor civics understanding is making me defend Joseph Robinette Biden!

i've decided that i dont care about max verstappen domination anymore. i am swinging back around to it being funny. by how many seconds will he be in the lead in the next race? 45? a whole minute? maybe every other car on the grid will just break down and then max can do all 50 or whatever laps by himself. ferrari will still find a way to fuck charles over.

#this is the attitude i am choosing to take. it will be funnier this way.#the ferrari bit is a joke. i am (hesitantly) optimistic about this year.#2024 charles leclerc wdc will happen. i am in church actively praying for it.#f1 #max verstappen #charles leclerc #also im taking bets now #do we think max will win all 24 races? or just like 90% (22 races)?#or like lewis hamilton will come in with a steel chair and manage to take his 8th? (<- i am actively praying for that)#or!!! logan sargeant finally gets the power of america on his side and comes in as surprise contender for the championship?#<- this has no chance of happening. i just think it'll be funny.#or!!! halfway through the season charles transforms into lightning mcqueen and he wins the last half of the races thereby causing a tie #leading the fia to call for a tiebreaker match between charles and max in texas except charles gets lost in la on the way there and i end u #finding him and we fall in love and he charms my family until the paps find him and we have to reluctantly part ways but then he wins!!#and comes home to me. (<- i have described the plot of cars. charles please come home the kids miss you.)

#OK I NEED TO STOP engaging with 911 ship wars but i have ONE MORE THING to say (probably lying)#i think it’s genuinely concerning how many people believe a ship has to have years of emotional connection before you’re allowed to ship it #like. imo you should be allowed to ship characters for any reason #crackships and rarepairs exist for a reason #secondly and probably more importantly #i think it’s really weird how many people are uncomfortable with the idea of gay sex #not in general but like #people were saying they were uncomfortable and weirded out because #an actor vaguely insinuated that the fictional character he plays would enjoy having gay sex with his partner #like people were calling him a freak #I THINK THATS WEIRD AND CONCERNING #it’s giving ‘my ship doesn’t have sex they make love while holding hands’#i think it ties into the first point #relationships are allowed to be built off attraction #you don’t need years and years of bonding for your relationship to be valid #and i think the visceral reaction against bucktommy because they’re not besties who share a kid is borderline homophobic #like there are plenty of valid reasons to dislike tommy and bucktommy like tommys previous behaviour #but being sooo against a ship based on the fact that there wasn’t enough ‘build up’ and that they don’t have a deep emotional bond #weird #and i don’t think it’s fetishisation to enjoy a canon couple im sorry that’s just a fucking crazy take #like it’s insane to me that apparently enjoying a gay ship is fetishisation unless it meets certain ‘emotional bonding’ criteria #also bathena is one of the most beloved ships on the show and their ‘build up’ was one date and a church hangout #and no one claims that they’re rushed and underdeveloped and that’s why one of them should be written off the show #like i said i think there’s a lot of valid reasons to dislike the ship (even if i do enjoy it)#but some of the arguments i’ve seen are just weird and i think you guys need to look at why it makes you uncomfortable #engage with other fandoms with more diverse ships and maybe you’ll calm down a little #911 discourse #for clarity the tumblr fandom seems to be okay but 911twt is an actual hell scape

#random personal stuff #I get it everyone in church wants to fuss over the babies #who are very cute and I'm glad that they're loved! they should be!#but I'd like to put in a good word *also* for a group who tend to get overlooked and undervalued #and that's older kids #once you get past baby age in the church circles I'm familiar with #you are no longer an object of adoration and are now a nuisance a burden and a problem that needs to be suppressed and contained #parents will openly complain about them and heaven forbid anyone reach adolescence because then they're regarded as next-door to a monster #and not many people are really listening to older kids or thinking about what they might need as human beings #which is connection and knowing that people give a darn about them personally #and don't just see them as something to be 'kept busy' or as free labor/babysitting for younger nuisances #I have the most interesting conversations with these kids #they're bright and hilarious and passionate about all kinds of things #and they're dealing with more than most adults seem to realize or take seriously #I remember being that age very vividly and the adult whom I wanted to be around the most was my aunt whenever she visited #because she actually took the time to listen to me and put up my jawing about [current obsession]#probably took a lot of patience on her part but I appreciated it so much #it made me feel like I mattered #sometimes the kids at church will talk to me and I want to be for them the kind of adult my aunt was for me #they ARE worth listening to!#everybody at every stage of life is worth caring about

for the ask game: LILAC CHARCOAL AND RASPBERRY

anon this is so sweet 😭

[ask game provided below for reference; if you'd like to play, please reblog from OP here:]

#anon i love this but i have a covenant with God so i can't kill Him with you #this reminds me of the time my brother lamented his atheism and my agnosticism on behalf of our religious mother. but i'm not agnostic.#so i clarified i believe in God and that's never changed. i just choose not to worship Him + I think there are multiple truths (incl. gods)#which is shorthand but I've never been able to explain it to others to their satisfaction and it isn't anyone else's business anyway #he thought that was MUCH worse and became so dramatic. he was genuinely so thrown. he fixated on the fact it's heresy.#which I didn't expect because like yes it's heresy but heresy is a doctrinal concept -- it doesn't have any intrinsic meaning.#and not to be dismissive but doctrine is fairly sequestered from God. It's functionally and historically a voidable social contract.#i was involved with the church/attended various bible retreats for several years before leaving. but I didn't leave over God lmao.#my institutional involvement was always contingent on its alignment with my own individual purpose/practice/rituals/bible study/covenant.#which church/community leadership knew and tried to triage in various ways but like. it's not hard to reject authority baselessly derived.#so my present relationship with God isn't any more heretical than it was when I practiced Christianity as a religion.#If anything I was maybe more heretical in funnier and more flagrant ways when I was practicing than I am now.#but anyway. my point is.#i wont help you kill god but I'm always here for heresy.#alternatively i also recommend either (1) listening to god is dead (meet the kids) by british india #which when engaged with meaningfully amounts to the same philosophical state of being as killing God #or (2) forming a reverse orphic mystery cult relationship with Him the way I did when from ages 10-14 #in other words #we can either sacrifice God to the secular age like thomas jefferson and nietzsche #or we can obsessively study the bible @ the cost of enough sleep that we (in brief spurts) access the parts of us inclined towards prophecy #those are the only two approaches to god that I'm capable of partaking in with any sincerity or intellectual honesty #and I'm unfortunately very married to sincerity and intellectual honesty.#(i'm sorry for meeting your very nice compliments with a nonsequitur illustrating why i should live as a hermit in a remote woodland shack)#(but I suppose I'm not sorry enough to remove the nonsequitur from my response prior to publication. so. take from that what you will.)

Don't blink. Blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back. Don't look away. And don't blink. Good luck.

DOCTOR WHO 3.10 | Blink

#doctor who #dw gifs #doctor who gifs #doctor who blink #Sally Shipton: the ship that never sailed #I was watching the time of angels/flesh and stone the other day and it made me so fucking angry because they did the angels so fucking dirt #and like okay they're alright episodes but the one thing that really pisses me off is the way they show the angels moving #like...the beauty of Blink is that you never see the angels moving you just see that they have moved #and that means that as the viewer you also feel responsible for not blinking - it doesn't move when you're watching the screen #and it really brings you into the episode - it makes it feel so much more real #to the point where it terrified me as a kid - I'd spend the whole episode with my eyes wide open because I was terrified that if I blinked #the angels would win #and because I didn't blink they didn't win #and then we have flesh and stone and we see the angels move and it just...ugh it takes you out of it. Like. There are so many ways they #could have done it without showing the angels move - just focus on amy's face and have the grinding sounds of stone would be the easiest #but they showed the angels moving and I hate it I hate it I hate it #as context Blink and Smith and Jones were the only episodes of Doctor Who we had on DVD as a kid because they were given out with the Radio #Times or the Daily Mail or something back in the day when they'd send TV episodes out with the news papers #and I remember going to the news agent's after church on the weeks those were available and buying the news paper that week #little seven year old me unable to actually see over the counter #I can't remember why I didn't get the rest but I got those two #and because they were the only ones I had and this was in the days before iplayer (it was launched December 2007) and then because I didn't #have access to a computer to watch stuff online #I just watched those two episodes on repeat #and so they became my favourite episodes by default #but also Blink stands up to the test of time #life is short and you are hot #every single line is a banger and sally sparrow and billy shipton is the greatest ship that never shipped in the world fight me #my gifs

You know the line, 'to be loved is to be changed'? I think that would work for Fallen Angel!AU.

#like hear me out #essentially Doppio isn't loved too much earlier on as a child and a scapegoat for other older angels #and so he starts sneaking out of Heaven to find some semblance of love or at least someone who doesn't dislike him #then one day he sneaks into a younger Diavolo's room when the latter is hiding in his room and nearly suicidal #so Doppio does the rare and unwise thing and reveals himself and starts talking to Diavolo like #'hi are you okay can we be friends?'#and Diavolo (being a kid at this time) hesistantly agrees because- well why not?#and they were friends for a few years until Doppio ended up being told to 'help' in one of heaven's libraries #so he couldn't leave for years (also he saw the fire and thought Diavolo died) except for rare moments where he still sneaks out of heaven #eventually he finds the truth out that Diavolo is still alive and the villian is planning something bad #so Doppio essentially says 'fuck this I'm out' to the villian and straight up falls out of heaven #and he ends up at the burned out church Diavolo used to go to and Diavolo happens to be there too #it takes a few days but they catch up with each other #and Doppio realizes all that shit he's been told about falling is bullshit and he's gotten braver if not ballsier over the years #sure he can't return to heaven but he's with his childhood friend and that's more than goddamned worth it #sorry for the wall of tags but #i have feelings for these rose colored bastarss #Aus #Fallen Angel!AU

I’ve never dogsat a puppy before, much less one that was only 16 weeks old, and I am. Very overwhelmed

#k speaks #i’m not kidding when i say i’m genuinely considering asking friends to help me for the first week #just like a revolving door of friends #i even asked my parents to come and stay with me for an extra week bc i’m already sleep deprived and overwhelmed #i don’t have time to myself anymore #and these are my last two weeks before i move and like #i won’t have any time to adjust to being on my own by then #he’s cute when he’s asleep but only then #and i feel really bad for saying it but i don’t like him #i’m now gonna have a scar on my leg bc he wouldn’t stop jumping and i couldn’t get him down and he ended up scratching me #he barked for an hour bc i put him in his crate for bedtime and then pouted bc i needed to take a shower #how am i supposed to make food or sleep or shower or go to church or any of these things #i need sleep but i also need my me time #he was SUPPOSED to be in the other room for bedtime but then he cried. for an hour #the thing is!!! the other dog is fine!!! i love that dog!!! he’s never given me problems before #but the puppy is. a lot #anyways i’ve decided i don’t want pets or kids lol can you believe it

Why do straight people on Reddit always act like the worst thing in the entire world is raising someone else's kid

#alfie #okay like i understand 'i feel betrayed that my partner cheated on me and tried to pass off her boytoy's baby is mine'#but like sometimes it feels like the betrayal isnt the cheating its the 'baby isnt mine genetically' thing #i dont get it #does it really matter that much????#i get being disappointed if your husband is infertile #but that doesnt mean you cant have kids??????#people out here fearmongering in the comments about how you should get a paternity test just in case the baby got swapped at the hospital #like??? god forbid you take care of someone elses baby #if you had gotten that pat test immediately what would you have done with the baby just drop it off on a church doorstep #and head back inside for round 2?????

[VERY LOUD] i discovered audiostretch and my life has been changed forever

and of course the very first thing i used it for was the video of a kid with a very bad microphone that became an inside joke in my friend group. enjoy and please turn your volume down.

#VERY LOUD #take off your headphones please #i beg of you #you will destroy your ears #this video is so fucking funny how did his mic get THAT BAD #i can't even hear what he's saying over the amount of ear-piercing beeps and boops #i dont even know where this video comes from #i found it on the reviews page for the among us church of worship when it was still on google maps #and my god was it the funniest thing i had seen that month #my sense of humour is so broken #this video is pure gold and i want this kid to know just how much joy he has brought to me and my friends #audiostretch

my husband and i got exceedingly hammered last night and he proceeded to explain the history of catholicism & christianity to me so i could write more accurate porn fjbmgfbkj #blessed

#silver jelly #wish i remembered it a little more but it's okay he drew diagrams #difficult bc i think i was picturing joseph's parents as catholics and that wouldn't make sense if i also hc that they're the ones who #helped him get his job (or at least his foot in the door.) he's just def not a catholic.#but wait HMMMMM what if that was another point of rebellion/contention. he started in the catholic church but it never Felt Right #not as a priest but something very like. beginner. idk maybe even a youth minister there too.#having a job that's Almost It is so hard jbmkbg okay anyway. it makes his parents really happy and he stays for uhhhh probably less than #a year but probably more than a couple of months bc it's been sooooo long since he was able to make them happy.#but it doesn't make HIM happy at least not exactly. catholicism never did (he strikes me as a catholic school kid probably through #all his schooling so he's known for a long time that a lot of it doesn't resonate.) and maybe this is where mary comes in.#and maybe she gives him the confidence he needs to find a church that's more aligned with his beliefs and his approach to faith.#there's a talk where she's like 'you're miserable and this is going to be your life if you don't get away from what's making you miserable'#sad and foreshadowy bc. well.#so he goes to Thee Maple Bay Church that we see in canon. he's not in the cul-de-sac yet. this is also before he and mary were even dating.#and maybe that's part of what makes her fall for him. it takes a lot of strength to leave your job and your family's church.#she sees him as a guy who takes action. this is also sad foreshadowing.#god this is SO JUICY fjbmigkj #but what is he now you may ask???? still no idea <3 #the christiansen mess

My granny on dad's sad been getting easily sick lately and like i know shes was gonna die someday but i feel bad for not feeling sad about it

#for context shes the one that took care of me and brother when we were kids. back then we were legally obligated to spend time with our dad #at least 6 days a month. but he just left us w her and went to work bc hes an workaholic #my granny treated me badly (bc everyone in this family loves my brother more) and gave me religious trauma and left me alone with strangers #from her church. and then our grandpa (that didnt even live w her anymore) got super sick and his wife refused to take care of him #so she left him with our granny. and granny spent years and so much money on him for nothing. he was going to die anyway #he was barely a shell of a person that could only shit snd piss himself and still she forced herself to care for him because she #believed that if she did she would go to heaven #not even gonna touch on all the problems and hard times she gave my mother #i love and respect my granny for the strong black woman she is but god.... all the trauma she gave me....#2 this day she still treats me badly 4 being an atheist and gay. she still treats my uncle (her SON) badly 4 being gay and being darkskin.#i wonder if when she dies ill even be able to cry. i remember i cried everytime i had to leave her house when i was a child #like it wasnt all bad you know #i can remember good moments if i think about it #sorry for the trauma dump LOL #been way too much in my head these past few days

THIS IS A PERSONAL POST

#random personal stuff #I was talking to my mom about having empathy for older kids and listening to them and taking them seriously #and she said something about how 'at that age you take yourself VERY seriously' (disdainful)#...and I just...#yes you do take yourself seriously at that age (who else around you will?)#but why does that make one less worthy of consideration #after all my mom herself really went through it in middle school and I wish I could go back and offer her some reassurance #between this and the rhetoric of the book I finally finished and what my mom tells me about church drama #there are a lot of perspectives in my circles that make me very tired #why are people like this why am I like this how do I get off this mindset bus
