Not parasocial love nor parasocial hate but a secret third thing where I respect the celebrity for their talents and achievements while acknowledging that I do not have a personal relationship with them and that they are a human with flaws

Reminder that the show runner did this

Parallels: 2x08 Cross Road Blues & 15x18 Despair

In its original context, 2x08 is made to draw parallels between Dean and a man who made a crossroads deal to save his wife’s life and John, who made a demon deal to save Dean. However, time is a flat circle and we know Supernatural loves to recycle plot lines, so theoretically, if the Supernatural final never happened, I would imagine this is the kind of perspective Season 16 Dean would have on Cas’ deal with The Empty.

One of my fave thoughts is how Sam looks like a dick if Destiel isn’t real regarding his and Deans different dynamics towards Cas 😂

I don’t subscribe to the “sam and cas couldn’t care less about each other” belief like I think they genuinely love each other and are chaotic besties HOWEVER I do think an essential part of their dynamic is that they periodically forget that the other exists

absolutely robbed of a scene where dean realizes that cas LETS him hold him back

I have all these after laser eye surgery but ?!

What’s Visual Snow Syndrome (VSS), and why do so many autistic people have it?

I learned about this the other day, when I posted about palinopsia (visual trailing/afterimages) being common in autistic people, and a couple of our followers told me about their VSS. I did some more research, and discovered that I also have it.

Visual Snow Syndrome is a neurological condition that interferes with visual processing. It’s caused by hyperactivity and hyper-excitability of nerves in certain areas of the brain that process visual information.

The core feature of VSS is constantly seeing tiny, fuzzy “feedback” in the environment. It’s kind of like seeing the world through a staticky TV screen. Some people’s visual static is larger than others. Mine is relatively fine-grained, but it gets bigger and more obvious in low lighting.

Some of the other symptoms of VSS include:

Palinopsia (visual trailing/afterimages)

Photophobia (sensitivity to light)

Increased and enhanced ectopic phenomenon, such as floaters, phosphenes, and Scheerer’s phenomenon

Seeing glare, starbursts, and halos around lights

Difficulty seeing at night/in the dark

Seeing random flashes of light and/or color, without cause from the environment

It’s common for people with VSS to experience comorbid migraines, but VSS is not the same thing as migraine aura.

So, why do autistic people often have VSS?

It comes down to the fact that VSS is caused by the hyper-excitability of neurons in areas of the brain that process visual information. A core feature of autism is hyper-excitable neurons, especially in areas of the brain that have to do with sensory processing. So it makes sense that autism would often inadvertently cause VSS.

Here are some illustrations of visual phenomenon that VSS causes, in case you want a better understanding of what the world looks like for me and many other autistic people.

Visual snow/static:

Palinopsia/image trailing:

Scheerer’s Phenomenon (tiny bright moving dots):

Starbursts around lights:

Floaters:

I hope y’all have learned something :)

I’ve found it very intriguing to realize that the way I see the world is more unique than I once knew!

Hands up if you were the child that read thousands of books and as an adult you hit burn out and now only read stories about the same 2 idiots falling in love over and over as you don't have the brain power to get emotionally attached to new characters.

the parallels.... (14x02/11x18)

Supernatural is the gay bachelor sent tweet

Ultimately supernatural is about a flock of gay people who all hate eachother because they’re obsessed with the same man

[tinkdw]

The sheer amount of people on Adam Rose's tiktok with Jensen just commenting "IS THAT SOLDIER BOY???" God they do not know he's at a Supernatural convention filming a tiktok with the guy who played his gay thing
