Have we talked about the fact that Eddie now has a black and photograph of half dome above his bed??

Because that is a choice - to have a rock formation notoriously difficult to climb hanging above you - as you sleep or have sex with your girlfriend. And to show it to us for the first time in a conversation that sets off Eddies catholic guilt?!

The implication that there is this massive thing - this massive part of you lying dormant but still looming over you and waiting to be climbed - to be summited. That even though the path is a difficult one the view from the top will so be worth it?!

Yeah. I’m feeling a certain way about it thanks!!

why get stressed about online discourse when you can instead google the current wildfire situation in your area and discover that hikers keep fuckin' walking onto trails that are specifically closed..... Because The Woods Are On Fire.

you will experience the same sharp rise in blood pressure. with none of the queer infighting!

anyway. this warning SHOULD be even less necessary than the one i gave a few weeks back about checking the summit conditions when you hike unfamiliar mountains, BUT:

IF you live in fire country.

please. Please.

do not.... go hiking.

on a trail.

that is actively on fire.

🙏🙏🙏

Stay with me here but I think I just had a realization about Wukong.

I think Wukong's biggest weakness as a mentor isn't his overwhelming lack of proper communication/"just swallow your trauma lol you'll be okay if we just don't think about it"-- but instead it's that he doesn't believe in teamwork-- which is the exact opposite of how Pigsy (and Tang) raised MK, and is probably why he hates that monkey so damn much

Pigsy, Tang, and MK have all said "there's nothing we can't do together", leading me to believe it's some kind of family motto/philosophy they all share, but Wukong would rather zip MK up the mountain so that they aren't bogged down by the rest of the group (maybe because he believes, like with most problems, only he can help).

But isolation makes MK weaker and more anxious because he truly relies on his friends and family for everything (bro has never defeated a villain by himself lmao)-- but Wukong doesn't understand this bc he's so used to being so goddamn overpowered that he's never really had to rely on others (and/or when he has, it doesn't end well/he ends up handling it anyways), and he (probably accidentally) drives this into MK's own head, despite it not being the same.

tl;dr MK's habit of isolation (especially when it comes to his self-sacrificial desires) is low key Wukong's fault because Wukong doesn't know how to rely on others and has accidentally overridden MK's childhood teachings (which is also why Pigsy has so much beef with that monkey maybe)

Look. I just want that good big brother Jayce content so I can cry over it.

So I went on a mountain hike with my family...

[crimeronan]

my google newsfeed is about 30% hiking accidents because of how my internet activity is, and every time i read a new hiking accident story, i'm like "oh god, people on tumblr need to know about this shit."

and then i remember that the vast majority of you are not going outside regularly, let ALONE hiking. so you really..... don't need to know about this shit, actually.

HOWEVER. for my peace of mind:

if you DO go out hiking, particularly on mountains or very wet areas, look up the weather conditions at the summit of the trail before you leave. if it's recommended that you bring specific gear with you on a hike, BRING IT. don't rely on your phone's GPS or google maps to guide you, don't wander off the trail, etc. if you accidentally get lost and have no way to orient yourself, staying put is better than wandering.

also.... maybe Don't do a many-miles-long hike in sunny 100F (38C) weather. any more than you'd do a mountain hike during a whiteout blizzard.

i need to claw my own brain out of my skull like zeus with athena

[steelycunt]

can you go on a hike in jeans. like i know it’s not ideal but if theoretically jeans are all i’ve got, how much of a problem would that be. is it like ahh that is a bad idea you’ll be uncomfy, or ahh that is a terrible fucking idea, and you will suffer for it

Gotta say, the decision to take the payout on my (allegedly totalled) first car kind of feels a bit like putting a pet down. I'm upset.
