BEES AND YELLING

I'm Shaun. Yeah, apparently I use Tumblr now.

when I was 16 or so I was a real big anti SJW shithead and as a result of that I had a falling out with someone who I previously considered a dear friend, it was entirely my fault and pretty recently I decided to look them up and maybe apologize and see how they’re doing… apparently they’re drawing Malcolm in the Middle incest now and sometimes god burns bridges for your own good

Awww…

I know I talk about Bob’s Burgers a lot but one of the newest episodes was so sweet. It starts with Bob realizing that there’s going to be a laser-light-rock-show and remembering how much he loved going to them as a kid:

Since it’s Bob’s birthday, Gene agrees to go with him:

But, like many children, he becomes overwhelmed by the loud noises and flashing lasers. (And listen, I usually hate it when people label characters as ‘autistic’ and act like a show gave them representation when it didn’t…but Bob’s Burgers really does have so many characters who would be labeled in real life, Gene being one of them, and this just adds to it because it’s the perfect depiction of someone being overstimulated):

He eventually breaks down sobbing, screaming that he wants to go:

Bob immediately takes him into the lobby and is able to ground him, getting him to properly breathe until he’s ready to talk:

Bob asks if he wants to go back in or go home. Gene immediately says “Go home!” but hesitates and adds that it’s Bob’s birthday, to which Bob’s instant reply is to not worry about it and that he won’t enjoy the show if Gene isn’t enjoying the show. He adds that they can go back in and he can help Gene through it but Gene begins panicking again and Bob quickly says that they can go home, not once forcing him to do something that would overwhelm him. So they go out to the car (and I just love how Bob holds onto him):

But it gets better. Bob takes out the CD and plays it at a low volume, tilts their chairs back, and uses a cigarette lighter to ‘draw’, creating his own ‘laser show’:

Gene eventually wants to see the finale of the real show, despite Bob’s insistence that Gene doesn’t have to pretend to want to see it just for Bob and that they can just go home, to which Gene assures him that he really does want to see it. They sneak back inside and Bob makes Gene a pair of makeshift headphones so that he can listen to the music without being overwhelmed:

A+ Parenting!

(But really, what else would you expect from this show?)

mutual: HEY DO ANY OF MY MUTUALS WANT TO BE FRIENDS OR TALK HMU I LOVE YOU

Look Closely: Torso panels of the new Discovery uniforms are tiny, metallic Starfleet deltas.

Dogs on TV always look so stiff. Like they’re supposed to be just sitting there but you can tell that the dog is like “!!!! Am good boy!!! Am hold position!!! Am look off stage at handler!!! Hi handler!!! Ready your finest treats for the good boy!!!”

My favorite are dogs who are supposed to be fierce but are so clearly playing at it. Just dubbing in growls can’t change that butt-wiggle of “I’m doing THE THING and soon I’ll get PRAISE and play with MY TOY”

Yes. This too.

can someone punch richard spencer in the face again? 2017 started off strong with him getting walloped on the regular, but now i feel like we as a society are slacking in this particular area

Here are the names of all 31 Scottish Tories. They voted in defence of the rape clause yesterday.

Their vote was a direct assault on women who have suffered a traumatic experience.

Their vote was for a child conceived by rape to have it declared on an official document.

Their vote was to cut £13 a week of tax credit. That £13 can make all the difference. Between making do or using a food bank. Between life or death.

Anyone, and I mean *anyone*, who votes for the Tories in the councils or the general election is backing this policy.

And if you do, that makes you inhuman. This policy is indefensible and I’ll happily challenge anyone who declares otherwise.

Can’t cum until the McRib is back.
