Pine Ridge Reservation is in desperate need of donations. Forecasts are calling for -27° conditions before wind chill and most homes rely on wood burning stoves to keep warm. firewood is in short supply and not easy to come by, on top of being expensive
if you have the money to donate, please consider sending some their way

The common fan perception of Aziraphale in Ineffable Wives AUs is that she would present as pretty stereotypically feminine, corresponding to male-presenting Aziraphale’s effeminacy. However, I’d argue that that effeminacy is thematically specific to that male-presenting form, with the fact that Aziraphale revels in this visibly queer style in spite of how humans often look down on him for it being extremely relevant to how he views his life on Earth as liberation from Heaven’s strict gaze. This overtly queer presentation would immediately make him stand out to humans, precisely what he isn’t supposed to do as Heaven’s representative on Earth, but he leans into it anyway as a pure expression of the identity they try to stifle in all angels. This message would be lost if Aziraphale just leans into normative femininity when presenting as a woman. Therefore, in the case of Ineffable Wives, Aziraphale should be perceived as a butch lesbian. In this essay I will

Me writing chapter 1 of my thesis: it's okay if it's weak and clunky and poorly outlined, it's just a first draft
Me writing chapter 2 of my thesis: it's completely fine if it's garbage badly written badly formatted non insightful drivel, it is just a first draft
Me writing chapter 3 of my thesis: IT IS TOTALLY 100% ALL RIGHT IF IT IS THE WORST THESIS ANYONE HAS EVER SEEN AND MY ADVISOR WILL THROW UP IMMEDIATELY UPON EYE CONTACT WITH IT BECAUSE IT IS JUST A FIRST DRAFT!!
Me editing my thesis: oh this is pretty good actually

Ok, here’s OFMD but I’ve never watched it
Blackbeard is a pirate with a beard that is gray and not black and his name is Ed
He likes to dress up fancy and one time he braided his beard
Stede Bonnet is a gentleman but is also an unhinged murderer dude
Blackbeard doesn’t like killing people, he does still do it a lot but afterward he gazes sadly at the moon with his big brown eyes and thinks about his lover
Stede ran away at one point and Blackbeard got depressed
Blackbeard shaved his beard. Now no more beard
It is very gay. I think all the pirates in the whole story are gay
There is someone named Izzy and everyone is angry about him
Blackbeard puts on leather clothes underwater and this seems unlikely to many of you
Stede is a sexy sexy mermaid
One of them gets his sword stuck in a person he’s killing and so he can’t run to the other one right away and this is very funny
They say modern slang
They run a hotel poorly at the end

Do you think there's gonna be a scene in s3 when one of the angels asks Aziraphale to show them the trick of surviving hellfire without disintegrating. And Aziraphale will have to pull off some wacky hijink to keep Heaven convinced he is still in fact immune to hellfire

Perfect
Aziraphale stopped in his tracks as he was passing by the back door.
He’d been busy all afternoon, working on his inventory of signed first-edition manuscripts; he was far more interested in keeping an accurate count of them now that there was no chance he’d have to sell them. They were safely tucked away on the cottage bookshelves, now, old leather and paper and ink, poems and novels and letters from centuries of history, and Aziraphale had started sifting through them again, enjoying the memories they brought back to him. He was carrying an old bound volume of Arthur Conan Doyle’s stories when he found himself arrested by the sight outside the window.
Crowley had been out gardening. Or at least that was what he’d claimed he’d be doing when they finished lunch, when he wandered out back into the brilliant sunshine. But he wasn’t gardening now - instead, he was sprawled out on his back in the grass, his wings fully manifested and spread beneath him, his eyes shut as the sun shone down on his face. Contentment seemed to radiate out from him, rivaling the sunlight his skin absorbed, catching Aziraphale in its glow.
Aziraphale’s heart ached at the sight. It still ached, sometimes, just seeing Crowley like this.

i was thinking about south downs scenes for the end of s3 again earlier and like. when it's either crowley (removing his gardening gloves) going up to aziraphale (reading a book in a lawn chair) or aziraphale's shadow moving over crowley (knelt on the floor tending to some plants) like a wing for a moment and either of them extending a hand to the other and saying "time to leave the garden, angel/dear"...and the other taking their hand and standing to walk back to the cottage with them...and they both look up because it starts spitting rain as they're walking back then it starts pouring suddenly and they run back to the house laughing and still holding hands??? then what.
