c'est la dean

if a girl is reading a really interesting book she shouldn't have to go to work. she's expanding her mind and bettering herself and her employers should understand that

“cain instinct” this “cain instinct” that. what about the reuben instinct where you hate your youngest sibling's guts but will still go out of your way to minimize the harm that comes to them. what about the judah instinct where you instinctively ask to be punished in place of your youngest sibling. what about the jacob instinct where your sibling is very hungry so u pettily make them promise you unreasonable things so that you'll give them food. what about the miriam instinct where you secretly watch over your baby sibling to make sure no harm comes to them.

why give dean a construction job when he’s with lisa when he’s said that other careers like firefighting and mechanic work are much more appealing to him and things he actually WANTS to do. like the fact that dean has THE white working class poster boy job while living in suburbia with his epic hot yoga wife and her son (and dean is NOT cucked for raising ben because he’s a carbon copy of dean) is comical. it doesn’t feel real because it’s not supposed to be real. he’s handed the quintessential “apple pie” life and is miserable. I know it’s supposed to be intentionally idyllic to contrast with dean’s deep dark desire to hunt, but we know dean doesn’t really want to hunt either, given how many times he’s expressed things like “I’m tired” and “I want us to be a family again”. it’s just the thing he does when he doesn’t know what else to do. dean is being presented with two worlds - retired suburban bliss and gritty heroic saviour - and he is deeply unhappy with both of those options. what he yearns for is a thing he’s never experienced before, and the show is EXPLICITLY telling us that a white picket fence (at least with lisa, who is The Perfect Woman) is not that thing.

6x01 is beguiling because the most plausible explanation for dean rejecting the literal platonic ideal of white cishet society is that he’s not cishet. or at the very least that he’s deeply uncomfortable with the demands it imposes on him. why is he uncomfortable you ask? oh I don’t know. who can say. but if you say he’s bisexual or gay than you’re a hysterical freak with terminal shipping brain

wait it really is tombstone tuesday ..

too much heart was always castiel’s problem.

i think the greatest visual irony spn ever pulled off was gradually increasing the lighting and saturation levels with each consecutive season after season 5 and ending up with almost the same colour palette as gabriel’s sitcom world in changing channels 

time is a flat circle we will always end up here etc etc

so some choice responses to this have been:

and my personal favourite,

and you in all your vibrant youth how could anything bad ever happen to you

listen i Know cas can heal himself but what if i wanted to clean him up. what if i wanted to have him sit on the bathroom counter while i wiped the blood from his face. what then.

hey guys don’t worry I asked jensen what he thought about the trans dean posts and he’s cool with it
