Roommate book club is going well. Since I’ve read the book twice before, I know how to say most of the sentences for the highest amount of comedic effect. Everyone also “oof”ed and “yikes”ed at the first slur presented at the book, and concerning the paint stain on Aziraphale’s shirt, one roommate had this to say:

“I love Aziraphale, but he’s such a baby about things.”

okay, now that I’ve finally read Good Omens and I get what all the fuss is about, I’m also very excited about the trailer (and for possibly the first time ever, nearly all the comments on Youtube are delightful)

I mean Crowley’s eyes still give me the heebie-jeebies, not gonna lie, but still

headcanons about crowley and aziraphale’s wings

• crowley’s wings are thinner and more delicate than most. he can still fly, just not for as long a distance at a time. if he were to use his wings to travel long distances it would be tiring and time-consuming which is why he has such a love for human transportation
• aziraphale’s wings are heavy and sturdy and surprisingly powerful considering that he rarely uses them. they give him a lot of height very quickly and give off the impression (to those out of the loop, i.e. humans) that he’s much more impressive and important than he actually is
• crowley’s wings are very sensitive; another reason for him not to have them out very much. because of their daintiness he can really feel every way they move and bend and is always very cautious about them snapping or getting ruffled uncomfortably
• when aziraphale did use his wings it was often to shield people; from weather or weapons or any number of things. he’s very protective of humanity by nature but revealing yourself as an angel is frowned upon nowadays so it’s been a very long time since he’s had them out in public
• even in hell (and heaven before that), crowley was very hesitant to have his wings out. he chose to walk most places because of the overstimulation and the fear of something happening to them
• crowley is a bit of a hypochondriac, especially when it comes to his wings. when he did have them out in heaven he’d always be asking other angels (usually aziraphale) to check his wings because he felt something scratched or out of place
• in hell he never had them out unless he was forced to because he didn’t trust anyone not to do something to them, and by the time they’re on earth he’s in the habit of always having them closed
• when he’s alone aziraphale will always have his wings out to stretch them. eventually aziraphale convinces crowley to open his sometimes —“for your health, my dear”
• when they’re cuddling aziraphale wraps his wings around crowley while he holds him. crowley getting cold easily gives him a good excuse to wrap him up tight. it takes a while for crowley to be comfortable with the idea of anyone touching his wings again but eventually aziraphale is able to absently run his hands over crowley’s feathers and he leans into the touch
• aziraphale’s wings being out at home does have it’s problems. namely that he’s not very good with spatial awareness and has knick-knacks on every surface, leading to a lot of nearly-broken antiques and knicks to his wings. thankfully crowley tends to follow him if he’s leaving the room for something and can catch any objects falling on hard floors. crowley also has a very delicate touch and is happy to sit behind him and patch up his wings where need be

While Myrtle is the undisputed queen of the New England Aquarium, our lined seahorses (hippocampus erectus) also sport crowns! Crown-like bony crests, called coronets, are located on the backside of their heads. They are as unique to each seahorse as a fingerprint is to a human! #TIL — view on Instagram http://bit.ly/2I7UIRG

The whole self love thing is good and all but some people can’t fathom being loved. They can’t imagine there being anything good about them. So they can’t simply just stop doing unhealthy things, there’s a process.

[sandersstudies]

Before self love you have to invoke self tolerance and self neutrality.

[sandersstudies]

If you can’t say “I love my body!” say “my body gets me from place to place.”

If you can’t say “I’m beautiful,” begin by shutting down the “I’m ugly” thoughts and saying “I’m a person.”

If you can’t say “I’m valuable” begun by shutting down the “I’m worthless” thoughts and say “all people deserve basic respect, and I’m a person.”

If you can’t say “I’m important,” or “I’m kind” say “I am the one who waters my plant every week” or “I am the one who tips the kind barista down the street” or “I am the one who makes sure my dog does not eat plastic” or “I am the one who leaves long comments on people’s fan fictions.”

An Arachnid with the head of a black dog, is neither a spider, nor a dog. 

Photographed by Natural Scientist Andreas Kay, this relative of the daddy long legs has evolved (for unknown reasons) black protrusions on the top of its body. 

It can be found in the Amazon Rainforest and is a type of Bunny Harvestman and a relative of the daddy long legs, meaning that is does not posses venom glands and is actually harmless to humans - despite looking so scary.
