When the boys are looking at the basement, searching for Peter, and Ryan hears something, the way Shane asks if he wistled it’s very casual, I don’t think he was making fun of Ryan or something. But the moment he realizes Ryan is serious about it after he yells, he stays silent and looking at him at first.
He right away starts making his funny voices, lookinig around as he starts a new bit. It cracks Ryan up in a second. And Shane keeps doing it until the man is laughing out loud and he’s no longer yelling and being frustrated for the sound.
Shane always, always searches a way to make the situation lighter for the two of them. And you can see it too, just to say another example, during the Hannah Williams episode, as they are in the master room and then the kid’s room.
He sees Ryan is getting tense and more nervous as they keep investigating. He first make the stupid yell that ″spooks ghosts″ and then ‘fights’ the whatever that is talking to Ryan in the room, laughing at its answers while Ryan looks at him to see his reactions. Both things immedately make Ryan laugh as well:
During the Lighthouse episode, later when Ryan is so visibly upset by what happened on his solo investigation, he doesn’t make fun of him. Shane checks on him and calmly says, well congrats. He knows that Ryan is nervous and it’s not the time to fight him on shit. I bet they did discuss it later, but in that moment what mattered was that Ryan was sweating, uneasy, and Shane keeps himself as calm as possible and just checks on him, and listens to him.
Aaaand this is why Shane is the best, and why the show works. He disagrees with Ryan, he doesn’t believe, but he believes in Ryan’s fear and anxiety, he believes in what upsets him because all Ryan is feeling is right there. It may be initiated by things he personally consider stupid, but the way his friend feels will never be stupid.
At the end of the day, Shane respects Ryan very much, he really loves his friend, which is also why Ryan feels so comfortable with him and it’s able to forget he is those terrible-for-him places, because Shane makes it easier to bare.
Their dynamic, as the seasons go by, has only gotten stronger and, like they have said before themselves, deeper. And it’s really exciting to see it on screen.
“Can you steal what’s yours?“ This is scary af
I fear it really is time to invoke the 25th Amendment.
Trump apparently doesn’t know when to stop. If he was capable of putting the nation before his own needs, he would have forcefully condemned what his angry followers did in his name today at the Capitol.
Instead, Trump weakly told the Capitol mob to “go home” while at the same time repeating his continued lie that the election was stolen from him.
But I think the thing that really got to me was Trump’s saying to these would-be insurgents,
Yes, Trump “loves” his “very special” insurgents.
This is particularly galling because the “Law & Order President” had a very different response to the Black Lives Matter protesters:
And how about Trump also telling the mob,
This from a man who has expressed minimal empathy in the past year for the nearly 360,000 Americans who have died of Covid-19.
Here’s the video and transcript of Trump’s appalling speech to the Capitol mob this afternoon:
“I know your pain. I know you’re hurt.
“We had an election that was stolen from us. It was a landslide election, and everyone knows it, especially the other side.
“But you have to go home now. We have to have peace.
“We have to have law and order. We have to respect our great people in law and order. We don’t want anybody hurt.”
“It’s a very tough period of time. There’s never been a time like this where such a thing happened. Where they could take it away from all of us. From me, from you, from our country.
"This was a fraudulent election. But we can’t play into the hands of these people. We have to have peace.
“So go home. We love you. You’re very special.
“You’ve seen what happens. You see the way others are treated that are so bad and so evil.
“I know how you feel. But go home and go home in peace.”
People horrifically fucking up facts about evolution and genetics too support their stupid beliefs or to seem smart and “rational” is probably one of my big pet peeves

Feminism is believing Johnny. It is believing victims. He is literally going against the patriarchal status quo by doing this. What Amber is doing is setting back women so far. I would rather die than fall for those obvious white women crocodile tears. The evidence is right there bitch

Denouncing this shit as "not republican" and "not American" is the most ignorant shit ever. This is America. This isn't surprising. Time is a fucking circle.
