how do people listen to sleeping at last and not go absolutely bonkers?? Like
“forgiveness is a lesson he cursed you to learn”??? “darkness exists to make light truly count”??? “may our stories catch fire and burn bright enough to catch God’s eye”??? “we pray we were made in the image of a figure eight”??? “if truth is north then I am true south”??? “It’s so exhausting on this silver screen where I play the role of anyone but me”??? “I’ve been less than half myself for more than half my life”??? “God knows, I am dissonance waiting to be swiftly pulled into tune”??? “I bend the definition of faith to exonerate my blind eye”??? “pain is a well-intentioned weatherman predicting God as best he can, but God I wanna feel again”??? “our stained glass means nothing without light”??? “in our grey matter all grey matters”??? “sign language is our reply when church bells make no sound”??? “for in our great sorrow we learn what joy means”??? “I’ll try and find the image of God in mountains made of ash and clouds of smoke”??? “they’re calling off the war on account of losing track of what we’re fighting for”??? “if brokenness is a form of art, I must be a poster child prodigy”??? “it’s a cruel, cruel trick how we find ourselves when we lose everything else”???
There are so many more but these are just my favorites

today i am stuck on the moment after eddie at his most alert since he was shot asks "are you hurt" and then immediately fades once buck tells him he's okay
the way buck is so proud about his idea to not buy a new couch and to commit to just having the armchair makes me just. so sad. like he’s so happy to finally feel like he’s making a good choice, the right choice, because he only ever seems to fail and this (committing to being alone and prioritizing his career instead) seems like finally something he is doing right. but it’s just so wrong and is obviously primarily coming from a place of deep anxiety about being a failure and never enough and im :)) not doing well
You can actually see Suguro have that echoey “OH shIT” moment.
short summary of the situation in Sudan
netflix daredevil is so good to me bc even tho matt does has heightened senses, he’s very human. no super speed, no super strength, no super healing. he goes out every single night and bleeds for his city. and he’s not the only one. it’s claire working in one of the most dangerous hospitals. its ben urich spending decades writing exposes. it’s karen standing up against union allied even tho it put a mark on her head. it’s foggy walking into a biker gang bar in search of the truth & constantly putting his career and safety on the line for the little guy. it’s brett risking his job and his life by being a clean cop. daredevil is a collection of small glimmers of hope and strength emerging in response to fear
