i went to a small private school in bumfuck, alabama, and we had a rite of passage. in 10th grade, every student took chemistry with Mr. Jenne, and every year, he showed his students a short video. the older students refused to tell the younger students what the video was, so by the time we got to chemistry, we were all super curious about it.
Mr. Jenne would go through the syllabus and explain how his class worked, then he'd drag out an old tv set and put an ancient vhs tape into an equally ancient vcr (i graduated in 2005; we knew what dvds were, but i don't think this was ever put on dvd). finally, he'd turn out the lights, and let us watch The Consequences of Our Choices, aka
The Pump
afterwards, when we were completely and utterly confused, he'd explain the metaphor. Mr. Jenne said he could always tell who had primed the pump by studying and who was going to die in the desert because they'd been cheating.
somewhere around December, when it was time for exams, he'd show it to us again. after that, he'd show it to us at random intervals -- if he needed to leave the room for a bit, if we finished the lesson early (ha!), or the next time we had exams in May. He also taught organic chemistry and physics, and you can bet your sweet ass i took both of those classes. i got to watch The Pump quite a few times.
Mr. Jenne passed away about a decade ago. He's still one of my all time favorite teachers because he taught us how to think, not what to think, and he didn't hold it against us when we thought something he didn't agree with (unless it was something provable, like science. he would've mercilessly mocked anti-maskers).
the older of my 2 little sisters starts 10th grade at my high school soon, so i did what any good sister would -- i made her watch The Pump. after i explained the metaphor and how much all of Mr. Jenne's students came to love the weird little video, she immediately started texting the link to her friends.
so, after a decade, i brought The Pump back to my school. I feel like I've reintroduced an endangered species to its native habitat.
(yeah, The Pump was originally about Christianity and Jesus and all that crap, and it was put out by the Mormons, but when i see this, i think science, not religion. but i tagged it religion, anyway, just in case)
When I first watched the mall episode, when Todoroki declined to go because he wanted to visit his mom, I thought the primary purpose of that scene was to show some growth in his character. We find out here that he's actively working on repairing his relationship with his mom.
By the end of the episode, I realized this reasoning was actually secondary. The primary reason for this scene was to get rid of Todoroki, because if he came to the mall, he wouldn't have left Midoriya's side, and Shigaraki wouldn't have been able to catch him alone.
This is probably obvious information, but it's something I think about way more than I should. There's something so heartwarming and simple in the thought. Todoroki wouldn't have left him.
Look at the cardigan Midoriya is wearing
it’s light blue, that’s not a Midoriya color, that’s a Todoroki color
And we all know that Midoriya doesn’t wear long sleeves, he’s a T-shirt boy first and foremost
But it’s around November here and likely getting a bit chilly, and who do we know that has a wardrobe almost exclusively of turtlenecks and cardigans?
So let me just say...

I just find this hilarious.
I explained to some absolute idiot on discord that as a blind person I hate when people make their blog titles or their usernames a bunch of letters compiled from different languages. If you use the letter that looks like an A but in Greek is actually an s, the screen reader is going to read it with an s sound. So a blind person cannot tell what you have typed because it reads as garbled nonsense.
And they thought it was just the funniest joke to intentionally type like that to poke fun. Please reblog and spread awareness that typing like this is inaccessible
