As I’m trying to come to terms with whatever the fuck that was, I’ve decided that:
Seasons 1 and 2 are peak. Absolute masterpieces. Canon.
Season 3 can be taken or left. Has its moments, but overall not as good as the first two. Canon, but only if you want it to be.
Season 4 is a fucking crack fic written at 2am that the author rereads at a later date and decides to delete. Absolutely not canon.

why are you as an adult open-mouth coughing all over the place
Sam looking down at buckys hand, almost confused, because they aren’t the hand shaking type.
But then Sam remembers they’re in public and it clicks why Buckys going in for a handshake instead of just kissing him. They have reputations to uphold and can’t risk people knowing, not yet at least.
REAL REAL REAL
Season one Five Hargreeves should've managed to shoot season four Five Hargreeves in the head when he got out of the subway into the season one apocalypse. He could've saved us from...That. That's all I'm gonna say.
i taught a baking class for 12 year olds today and we made your garden variety chocolate chip cookies, but i’m a big believer in Questioning Everything and the who/what/where/why/when/how behind things, so the first part of the class was purposely letting the kids do things the wrong way, to show and explain why we do things the way we do.
“why do we bake cookies at 180 for 9 minutes when we could do 400 for 2 minutes?” -enter the godawful lump of coal with a still gross wet and uncooked inside
“why do we have to scoop out little cookies instead of doing the whole tray?” -ok well that one you can technically do if the spread is even. you just end up with one giant, structurally unsound cookie. “PLEASE CAN WE MAKE GIANT COOKIES” (we did make 1 giant tray cookie)
we talked a lot about why consistency is important, but i don’t think it really hammered home until i said “okay everyone gets ONE cookie, that’s fair, right?” and then handed out cookies of hugely varying sizes. + baked one fat lump of a cookie that still wasn’t done at the 9 minutes, vs the regular one i put in that came out charred by the time the first was actually done.
we also made a row of cookies where each one had one single differing ingredient omitted, like a cookie with no flour, or a cookie with no butter, and laid them all out on a single tray to bake together to see how each ingredient affects the outcome.
two of the little girls added cocoa to their cookie doughs until it matched the colour of each others skin to make best friend cookies, and that almost made me tear up a bit 🥺
got briefly distracted (…for over half an hour…) talking about how eggs form when someone cracked an egg and it had 2 yolks
expertly tolerated being asked how old i am (just turned 31 the other day) which was immediately followed by asking if i watched the moon landing live on tv
was so focused on keeping track of all the kids that in the end i forgot to make a cookie for myself, but it’s ok because one of the girls gave me this
tiny……….
Just want to let everyone know that durring state testing i had to read and write an essay about Hamilton. THEY HAD US READ THE ELECTION OF 1800
Steve defending bucky from reporters and press 🥺🥺
Always correcting things they put in exhibits and the news. And post CW when the reporters on TV are still calling Bucky a criminal, the news offices get long-distance calls from Steve Rogers like, “HE WAS ACQUITTED. Keep his name out of your mouth.”
(Because Bucky’s humming in the kitchen, making coffee for both of them. And Bucky’s hands tremble—still healing from the atrocities committed against him. He’s not a fucking monster.)
“What was that about?” Bucky asks when Steve drops heavily into a kitchen chair, elbows on the table. Bucky replaces the phone in Steve’s hands with a warm mug of coffee made just the way he likes.
“Nothin’,” Steve dismisses.
Bucky chuckles, dropping a few kisses to the top of a blond head. “You defending my honor?”
“So what if I am?” Steve tips his chin up so Bucky can give him a real kiss. He can feel the smile against his lips.
it's funny to me that the entry level requirement for being a good captain america is that you have to be in love with Bucky Barnes and that's why john walker was a shit one
