I saw someone point out that Captain Gerard is at this ceremony and will watch watch a black lesbian woman, an asian man, a hispanic man and two queer men getting medals for being firefighters and I think that’s called divine retribution or something and I love it

9-1-1 SEASON 7: FAVORITE MOMENTS ↳ part 25/? +bonus
i can't explain why but "i love you" / "it'll pass" is genuinely one of the most comforting pieces of dialogue i've ever come across. the context is deliberately sad, the hot priest is walking away from fleabag, choosing religion over love ["oh i don't know what this feeling is" / "is it god or is it me?"] and it's SICK because he loves her too [ "i can't have sex with you because i'll fall in love with you and if i fall in love with you, i won't burst into flames, but my life will be fucked"] but like. it's not a "sad ending" for the sake of being sad and realistic or an unreasonably happy ending preaching love and forever ever-afters. it doesn't villainize or glorify the concept of love or people. it's simply speaking the truth in the simplest of words. you're in love with me and it's going to make you miserable but it'll pass. the pain will lessen and that ache in your chest will fade till it's tolerable. you'll laugh more often. soon it'll be easier to get up in the mornings. this is a law, a rule, a fact. no matter how precious that pain is, how inescapable- it'll pass. even though he's the hot priest and she's fleabag and they're so obviously made to be happily in love w each other- it'll still pass. it's how we're built-to persevere, to survive, to break and be okay again.
Therapists are just…. Common sense filters
-Waiting-
Didn’t I told you to wait? yes, wait patiently. You don’t have to be perfect, you can’t be but be patient with yourself.
I have seen how things changes so quickly each passing day. It’s like in a moment, I watched this kid walking in front of me and after a few blinks an old man passed away. The world is a place of constant change, nothing stays the same.
Of course, eventually some thought there are things that until now they haven’t had any changes over the passing of time but some changes doesn’t have to be obvious. They just happen even before we notice them.
So to you my friend, dear heart, dear self, be patient. Your season is not yet here, summer may burn your skin or change the color of your eyes.
Maybe, those storms has hardened your heart but soon when even a leaf won’t fall from the tree, right when you’re about to close your eyes, you’ll be quickened and all you have to do is take a step forward because finally, you discover your purpose.
Everything will fall into place and all you have to do is follow where light & love leads you. But for now, stay objective, keep trying, believe, pray, do what’s necessary, just don’t compromise. You’ll get there, satisfied, healed, loved, fulfilled, mattered and accomplished. Don’t worry, my dear, you’ll finish well.
I was never into writing, I used to only read. Then, a day few years ago I came up with an idea about a story. That was the day I fell in love with it. When I write I am able to create a world of my own, a world that I’d love to live in. I feel like I can send a message through what I write and that it may help people who need it. I like how I can express myself through writing, my ideas, my beliefs. How I can actually get some negative feelings out of my system. I use writing to entertain humans and raise awareness of something important. There can be so much power into one word, one phrase, a sentence. I want to make people see that books aren’t a waste of time. You can actually have fun and learn at the same time. You can feel so many emotions during one scene or even a phrase! I write for all those reasons and way more. I write because that’s who I am, writing is in my blood. I write because I want to inspire people to do the same, to chase their dreams, to do things that they had never thought of doing. I want people to feel as many emotions as they can during this time we have on planet Earth. Why do you write?
truly nothing about house md prepares you for wilson. he's fucking insane. he's been divorced three times. he's the only person who can scheme just as well as house. he gives a patient his own liver bc he felt bad for him - a patient who didn't even know wilson's name. btw. he noticed a patient had depression bc he never mentioned his grandkids. he starred in a porno. he dosed house with antidepressants for several weeks. he allowed his boybestie and his gf to share custody of him and didn't even try to stop it. house told him to buy a piece of furniture that represented who he was, and he bought a $4000+ organ for house. he was gonna torpedo his career to talk abt euthanasia bc one of his patients suffered longer than he had to. he let house move into his 1 bed apartment bc his therapist thought it'd be a good idea. this man would do anything for anybody if they let him. he'd fucking quit his job to save a snail off the sidewalk. bro is not normal in the slightest
So many people seem to think YA and NA are the same thing, or NA is YA but with the sex. Have a bullet list from someone who’s tired of seeing them lumped into the same category.
Young Adult
the target audience is 12 to 18 years old
the protagonists are usually kiddos that still live at home and need their parents’ signatures on official documents
themes commonly work with personal relationships on an emotional level, and do a lot of coming-of-age/coming-into-ones-own-identity
sex, swearing, and violence are all watered down for a younger audience
New Adult
the target audience is 18 to 30 years old
the protagonists are of the moving-out age and can start making the big decisions on their own
themes commonly encompass the overall lifestyle shift of taking on adult responsibilities, moving away from home, and dealing with the consequences of the aforementioned big decisions
there is potential the sex, and the swearing, and the violence
These are incomplete lists, but the point is please, please, please stop equating these two different, but equally valuable, genres.
But thank you
