As Someone Who Took Latin For Many Years I One Hundred Percent Agree With The Demon Summoning Allegations.

As someone who took latin for many years I one hundred percent agree with the demon summoning allegations. That's probably the reason we barely had any speech components in my course lol

So if my students finish a quiz/test early, I ask them to draw me stuff on the back (partly so those who need more time are less self-conscious about still having the test out, partly because fuck yeah, pictures), and it may be the single best decision of my career.

In the past couple of weeks, I’ve told these kids that (a) the Romans believed there were demons in their public toilets and (b) the word for “janitor” comes from “ianitor”, which means “(door) guard”.

So now I’m getting drawings of superhero janitors taking on toilet demons, and it’s so beautiful.

fucking hate it when the stuff everybody says "actually works" does actually work.

hate exercising and realizing i've let go of a lot of anxiety and anger because i've overturned my fight-or-flight response.

hate eating right and eating enough and eating 3 times a day and realizing i'm less anxious and i have more energy

hate journaling in my stupid notebook with my stupid bic ballpoint and realizing that i've actually started healing about something once i'm able to externalize it

hate forgiving myself hate complimenting myself more often hate treating myself with kindness hate taking a gratitude inventory hate having patience hate talking to myself gently

hate turning my little face up to the sun and taking deep breaths and looking at nature and grounding myself and realizing that i feel less burdened and more hopeful, more actually-here, that i am able to see the good sides of myself more clearly, that i am able to see not only how far i have to grow - but also how much growth i have already done & how much of my life i truly fill with light and laughter and love

horrible horrible horrible. hate it but i'm gonna do it tho

Re: Good Omens "Season" 3:

Listen. Listen folks.

I know. We're upset. We have every right to be upset. He-who-won't-be-mentioned fucked this up for all of us: the fans, the cast, the crew.

BUT there are still two people involved in this project whom I trust to make this right for us:

Rob Wilkins, who says of himself that his job is to be Sir Terry's representative on earth, and Michael Sheen, the OG Good Omens Fan.

Look me in the eye and tell me you don't believe Michael Sheen would fight Amazon execs in an ASDA parking lot if they told him he wasn't allowed to kiss David Tennant on the mouth in front of a rolling camera. Or that you don't believe David would follow his lead.

I trust in the cast and crew to somehow steer this ship and to give us 90 minutes that feel like a satisfactory ending for this show that means so much to so many of us.

Did I wish for more than 90 minutes for them to pull it off? Absolutely.

But I won't lie, folks: I am SO. INCREDIBLY. RELIEVED.

I honestly thought they were just going to cancel it. They could have done. And the fact that they didn't is 100% down to us being a huge fandom with (let's be real here) a lot of purchasing power and the ability to kick off a ginormous shitstorm all over social media. I bet there were whole entire meetings dedicated to figuring out if cancelling the show and washing their hands off this entire mess was worth the cost - and then they decided it wasn't.

That's down to us.

So we'll take these 90 minutes and we will squeeze every last molecule of dopamine out of them because Michael and David and the rest of the crew and Rob will make sure that there will be plenty for us to enjoy.

And then we'll continue doing what we've always done: write fanfic and make art and love these characters. We don't need him-who-won't-be-mentioned or Amazon for any of that.

All of the images except for the last are set on a white background. The only thing in each image is Crowley as some species of snake and a speech bubble coming from Aziraphale who is off screen.   Image #1 - Aziraphale: "I'm sorry you're bored Crowley, but glaring isn't going to make me shelve books any faster." Crowley is in his typical snake form (red-bellied black snake) and curled up. He looks very grumpy and his tongue is hanging out. He's glaring in the direction of Aziraphale.
Image #2 - Aziraphale: "Nor will staring."  Crowley is a bluntheaded tree snake. He's close up and staring at the viewer with enormous bug eyes that are pointing in the opposite direction. His tongue hangs out limply and he looks quite dumb.
Image #3 - Aziraphale: "Or playing dead." Crowley is an eastern hognose snake. He is curled up on his back with his tongue hanging out dramatically like hognose snakes do to protect themselves. His eyes have little "Xs" on them.
Image #4 - Aziraphale: "...Good lord." Crowley is an arabian sand boa which is what a snake might look like if you asked a child to draw you a snake. They are the same width for their length of their entire bodies and their eyes are very small and sit on top of their heads and point in opposite directions. Crowley is staring blankly at nothing.
Image #5 - Aziraphale: "CROWLEY! That egg is for my breakfast!" Crowley is an African egg eating snake. He has his jaw completely unhinged and has an entire egg in his mouth. His head is almost a perfect circle. His expression is a combination of stubborn defiance and sheer stupidity. His eyes are angry looking but his pupils are pointed in complete  opposite directions which lessens the effect.
Image #6 - Aziraphale: "Are you pleased with yourself? Well guess what Mister - " Crowley is still an African egg eater. He has finished eating the egg and is laying on his side with the massive egg in his stomach. He looks very smug and pleased. His head is resting on the ground and his tongue hangs out limply.
Image #7 - Closeup shot of the front steps of the bookshop. There is a carboard box with holes in it on the steps. Aziraphale has written: "Free! To a loving home. <3" and Muriel has drawn a cute little snake on the box and written "by Muriel!"  Crowley is inside the box and he is now an eastern diamondback rattlesnake. The only parts of him that are visible are his two yellow eyes, each peering through a hole and his tail which is coming through a third hole. His tail is raised and he is shaking his rattle menacingly.

What if Crowley could change his species of snake at will? 🐍

In Aziraphale's defense, Crowley wasn't a rattlesnake when he put him in the box. Crowley could obviously get out whenever he likes, but it’s actually kind of fun.

Stop everything you're doing and look at the Arabian sand boa. You're welcome.

Snakes in order of appearance: Red-bellied black snake, blunthead tree snake, eastern hognose snake, Arabian sand boa, African egg-eating snake, eastern diamondback rattlesnake.

Also -

You ever make something and go, "This is it, my finest work. My magnum opus. I've peaked as an artist."?

What If Crowley Could Change His Species Of Snake At Will? 🐍
