I smell like a crayon!

I think every day of my life about what was going through Damien Moreau's head when he saw that puppy broadcast. he has seen that man elbow deep in the blood of innocents. he has seen that man tear human beings apart like wet tissue. right now in front of his eyes The Eliot Spencer is gently cradling an adorable little pupper and softly explaining the evils of animal cruelty. I genuinely this might have been the first time he realised what he was up against because his entire brain must have rebooted in that moment.

“If you have time to watch Netflix you have time for a side hustle” my side hustle is relaxing so that my body and brain can heal from by this nose-to-the-grindstone bullshit. I refuse to feel guilty for being a human with the need to relax sometimes. my side hustle is no.

whenever i hear about hustle culture i always think about this post on r/antiwork

It's reallly annoying that oversleeping is like. 100% inefficient. There is no benefit you gain, you basically just lost a bunch of hours from your life. You're not even less sleepy afterwards

nate, in s4e11: hardison dies in plans C, F and M through Q.

team whenever hardison is gone for one second:

you can’t fucking do this to me

Oh damn the Catholics have joined in on the war against AI "art".

leverage s1e3 is so funny when sophie offers to feel parker’s forehead for a temperature & parker just obliges & nates in the middle NOT having it. he’s like okay when did this international grifter who once SHOT ME become a caring maternal figure to the worlds greatest thief. and the rest of us are like… ummm about 2 episodes ago buddy

I gotta be real with you guys...every single group of unrelated adults are not a found family

thinking about parker’s relationship with the team during season 1 is so much funnier with context she provides later. she genuinely didn’t remember eliot’s name for a YEAR and would frequently be reminded by other people saying it, just to forget again (pretty likely this was true for other people’s names too). she couldn’t understand sophie at all in the rashomon job, so how long did it take for her to understand sophie after they met properly in the pilot? she didn’t know that most people are afraid of falling because most people aren’t oddly immune to injury, so hardison’s complaining and screaming about a silly little 40 ft drop would have been so perplexing. she was having a very confusing time with this weird new family team

the way the leverage team make a mess of nate’s apartment on multiple occasions is so much funnier when you consider that none of them are particularly messy people. in the pilot, hardison has a very nice apartment that he is clearly proud of & has kept very tidy. parker’s warehouse is almost disturbingly neat, her tools and weapons are kept clean & shiny and are laid out in perfect rows, her bed is made, her clothes and rappelling gear is hung up. eliot likes things done properly and certainly at least cares for his car’s cleanliness. idk about sophie, but she would at least know how to act neat for a grift, and she’d be aware of how a guest to supposed to treat their host’s home.

but they all put unwashed dishes in nate’s sink, do spur of the moment renovations, set up new gear in his living room, leave clothes/costumes, plans & random items strewn about the place, and even tear up his stuff without fixing it. i love it. his apartment is their playground. they half live here now. nate just needs to chill out and let them saw into his walls, geez calm downnnn. i know nate’s eye was twitching when he saw that parker’s warehouse was so perfect meanwhile there’s probably 5 bowls of unfinished cereal hidden in his house like a damn look-and-find puzzle

Things I hadn't noticed in the Nigerian Job till my 6th re-watch-

The thing is, Parker does go out on the original count Nate starts on the rooftop, not the one he restarts after Hardison comments. That is her following the plan. The original plan.

Now when Hardison has Eliot at gunpoint in the abandoned factory Dubenich assembled them in, when Nate asked Eliot why he didn't look worried Eliot says 'safety's on', but Hardison doesn't fall for it. It's only when NATE says it he goes to check and gets the gun taken away. He gets the doubt from NATE, not Eliot. Because Nate is the (former) white knight, the straight and narrow, the Not-thief in their merry little band. They show us from the beginning just how powerful Nate's role is, having played both sides of the coin

Thirdly, Nate approaches a pissed off and cheated-out-of-her-money Parker a lot different than he treated the other two. He talks to Eliot in a levelheadedness he knows a professional hitter and extraction specialist like him would have. And he treats Hardison with quick and easy ruses so he's appeased and disarmed for the moment allowing him a moment to calm down. But PARKER, he treats with care and patience. Not condescension. Just a healthy respect for the fact that she is the best at what she does and the fact that she's not gotten her money yet makes her unpredictable and with her skillset nearly unwavering at her stance.

Idk man, every time I watch this show I'm blown away at the details and characterizations

I know “60s housewives who invented slash fanfiction” has taken on a life of its own as a phrase, but Kirk/Spock didn’t really exist until the 70s and THOSE WOMEN HAD JOBS. They were teachers and librarians and bookkeepers and scientists and they damn well spent their own money going to conventions, printing zines, buying fanart and making fandom happen. Put some respect on their names.
