the only bad part about going to the zoo is hearing adult men confidently tell their kids or gfs objectively incorrect information about the animals we’re looking at and having to remain silent. do u know the restraint it takes to say nothing when a grown adult man tells someone “falcons are in the same family as eagles” next to me? no babygirl. no.

love triangles can’t exist without at least 1 lgbt person. cishets just don’t know how shapes work

I’ve created this helpful info graphic

Most of the characters that people call a love triangle is really just a love corner. And the woman is usually backed into it.

tww was so real for the scene where Joey Lucas (light of my life love her) says to Josh “if you polled 100 Donnas and asked them if they think we should go out, you’d get a high positive response. What that wouldn’t tell you is that it’s because she likes you and she thinks it’s beginning to show and she’s trying to cover herself with misdirection” (a take that is both BOLD and ACCURATE) and then Josh replies “believe me when I tell you that’s not true” with the biggest smile on his face and in his voice. Like buddy. Josh……. That’s not how a man who doesn’t want that to be true says that.

The thing about the west wing season 5 is that, for the first half, they forget Josh’s core competencies - 1) survivor’s guilt, 2) bulldog-like loyalty, 3) in love with Donna.

behold, modern west wing au: potus edition

i'm done putting these under the cut you all just have to deal with it LOL

  • Jed Bartlet is, above all, a boomer and relishes in doing everything in his constitutional power to make CJ's job harder. He loves calling Abbey a Karen once Charlie explains what it means to him.
  • He refuses to text and instead walks around SCREAMING into his speech-to-text all sorts of highly confidential or sensitive material such as military plans, drafts of speeches, and staff gossip. danny wins a Pulitzer for his reporting on the later.
  • I just feel like he'd really enjoy Game of Thrones, but like to a weird degree. mandatory staff viewing parties, etc.
  • 2022 Jed has beef with Oprah, I know this for certain
  • Unsurprisingly, Jed is the biggest troll known to mankind. One of his favorite pastimes is looking up Onion headlines and trying to make them into reality down to the "POTUS shakes hands with gator in last ditch attempt to win Florida".
  • Toby accidentally spoils the wordle of the day for Jed, so he outright bans Toby's favorite Keurig cup (cinnabon coffee) from the west wing as retribution
  • I feel like Jed would really love John & Hank Green's Crash Course education youtube series and would bring them on board in an official admin capacity with funding, etc.
  • a 2022 POTUS means he would've been teaching in the time of RateMyProfessor. Republicans dug up his old reviews to try to get dirt on him but were shocked that he had the highest "hot looks" rating out of the entire university
  • a 2022 POTUS also means he was in his twenties during the late 70s, early 80s so we've got some glorious Big Hair Jed photos that Charlie and Josh used to build a shrine in the bullpen men's restroom
  • As usual, Josh creates a nationwide scandal and there's widespread calls for his removal from the administration. Jed manages to break into the POTUS twitter account (Sam regularly changes the passwords to prevent precisely this from happening) and tweets out: "No." it trends for four days straight
  • Sam and CJ have been trying to promote the POTUS tiktok account to pick up more youth votes. Jed refuses to cooperate unless he can pick the filter so he ends up giving his administration's version of fireside chats like this:

Eliot: I've given up the lethal side of being a hitter. I stick to my moral code fiercely and refuse and dread ever returning to how I was before

Hardison: *is in danger*

Eliot: never mind *kill bill siren*

Nate: you don't have to kill anyone

Eliot: that's a relief

Parker: can we kill Rand?

Eliot: yes absolutely
