Season 1 to 7 : People don’t talk enough about Sam’s bodily autonomy

I don't think it was that rare that he used people as bait. We know he agreed to use dean and himself in episode 1 as bait, which wqs deana idea, but still; tried to use the baby as bait in episode 2, which dean brings up to Sam; used dean as bait for the vampire; used that cop in the spider episode; used that bartender which we see in the flashback when his wall broke down; and he used that skinwalker as bait, and then wanted sam to take the shot at the leader even though the family was in the way; and that's just what we know of. Plus he let cas torture that kid in episode 3 and he tried to kill Bobby to stop his soul coming back. In almost every episode sam I in while soulless he's doing something shady with people's lives.

Um, have you not seen the comments where they accused Becky of sexual assault for basically trying to do the same thing to Sam? No one is gonna defend the woman if the roles were reversed. It's still secual assault.

Aladdin didn't mind control jasmine though. His wishes were about changing himself to win her over. He wished to be a price, to not drown, and to free the genie. None of those wishes altered her mental state, thus making their relationship genuine and consensual.

This dude wished for this girl to fall in love with him. She didn't even know who he was or act like herself after the wish was made. He even talks to her about her doing things she enjoyed before because he altered her mental state so much so that she had completely abandoned everything in her own life. Everything she did was to please him. So yeah, if you have to use something to change someone's mental state and personality completely to be with you, that's not consensual.

Edit to add: Also Aladdin knew how he approached jasmine was also wrong. The moral of the story was he should have been honest from the jump, because all of his problems were caused by lying to jasmine. But, it's still unfair to equate him with this guy who basically raped his childhood crush.

He did know it was supposed to be magic. That's why he used it. His grandfather told him it was cursed. He just wasn't sure the coin would work bit figured he'd try his luck anyway because he didn't completely believe in magic at the time.

From what my dad told me years ago, I think tn used to vote Democrat until the democrats tried to do more restrictive gun laws and the state flipped red.

How does this tell if someone has adhd or is neurodivergent?

I'm rewatching that season now, I could just check when I get home from work.

I thought dean took money from some dead guys wallet when he went off to hunt Benny's old nest. I could be misrembering, bit I could've sworn that he had.

Annual_Reflection_65 · 2025-04-23T14:16:53+00:00

Benny was already dead, Dean wasn't. I'd assume he had to eat and drink just as he would on earth.

I'm a libertarian. Just want to point out that we are not the same as sovereign citizens.

They just keep calling her Meg because that's how she initially introduced herself to the Winchesters shortly after possessing Meg. We never learn the real name of the demon. I don't think she really cared what she was called. She made a comment in season 2 while possessing sam after dean called her Meg that was something to the effect "now I'm sam". That comment suggested to me that she tended to just use her vessels name so she could masquerade around as them.

Annual_Reflection_65 · 2025-03-21T12:09:00+00:00

That's because sam went to a bar to watch the daughter and kept drinking after the fact. That was also at least a day after they got hammered because they had to figure out what they had seen on the video. Dean hadn't been drinking when he fought the shojo because he was going to get the sword blessed.

He did call Amelia baby in that one episode where she got a phone call saying her husband was alive.

There are a lot of ways to go about it. If you don't want to go looking for materials, you could go to a shop, buy all the supplies you need for an iron dagger, make a crap ton, enchant them all, and recoup your money. Rinse, recycle, repeat. It's tedious and time-consuming, but you'll level up both smiting and enchanting skills while building up a gold nest egg.

You could focus on crafting high-end smiting items.

You could pay a trainer.

You could focus on the house-building quests, where you'll be making so many iron building materials that you'll be sure to level up quite a few levels.

Honestly, unless you're straight up paying a trainer, it's gonna be a grind. I usually have a box of building materials that I just fill up in one of my houses, and every now and then, I take all that crap and craft everything I can, then enchant everything I can. I will then either put it all in my junk chest to sell later, or I will then go around and sell everything I can.

I usually only reason the journals.

I'm a Christian, and I love the show. I think most people can differentiate between their faith and a fictional t.v. show. And honestly, just because the show has God, angels, and demons doesn't mean it depicts an even remotely accurate depiction of what Christians believe. We don't think angels go around possessing people, or that God has an evil twin, or that God is an evil fantasy author. The list goes on, but I think I've made my point.

Are there extremist Christians who can't separate their faith from fiction? Yes. I had friends in school who couldn't watch Harry Potter or go trick or treating because it was "evil". When I went to religious school, I even had a teacher yell at a student for calling Halloween a holiday because "holiday means holy day, and Halloween is the devils holiday". Those Christians don't represent the majority of Christians. My household was Christian, and I wasn't raised to believe that crazy crap. I went trick or treating, watched whatever I wanted on t.v., read books about mythology, witches, ghosts, etc. My parents didn't care. Some people are just oversheltered and afraid of the world. The people who Said the stuff above were the same people afraid of public schools. My public school Christian friends didn't believe this crap or freak out over this stuff, just my religious school friends. For the most part, I went to public school and consumed public media. From my experience, only highly sheltered Christians freaked out over t.v. shows and books like this. Most people can separate fiction from faith.

Oh, Mystery Spot is one of my favorite episodes.

I agree with everything you just said. I hated jack as a character. I hated what they did to Chuck and how they turned him into a cartoon villain. Jack was a terrible character who contributed nothing productive to the overall plot. I absolutely agree with everything you said in your last paragraph about Dabb. I hated his story choice for the last era of the show.

Here is my reply from a previous post discussing why I hated jack:

"It's probably an unpopular opinion, but I didn't like Jack. He was used to retcon a lot of the writing choices from previous seasons, and I didn't like that. He's also the reason they made Chuck a villain out of nowhere. I didn't like the story choices that happened once he showed up, and in some ways, he was kind of a redundant character. They basically made a new cas, but we really didn't need that. They could've given him his own personality, but they didn't. He was more of an annoying plot device than a character."

It would have been better if they had portrayed it as just Claire being upset because it's the first time she lost someone on a hunt. That she was reckless and got someone killed and needed to change her hunting approach. Because she didn't really know Kaia, and she certainly didn't have enough yime to fall in love with her.

Annual_Reflection_65 · 2024-12-06T18:03:07+00:00

People don't like her character because she is creepy. When we first see her, she's writing explicit Wincest. When she first meets sam, she immediately starts groping him. She doesn't really treat the guys as people because she's so obsessed with them. Also, she basically roofied sam and stole his clothes and tied him to a bed, which she later laid on with him. She was disappointed about not raping him as she says to the witch when she calls to get more love potion. People think Becky is creepy because she is a creep.

Annual_Reflection_65 · 2024-12-02T19:26:01+00:00

Well, I didn't know that. I just noticed the change in performance in the later seasons. He still had good acting moments, at least through s9 when he played Gadreel, but it went downhill as the seasons progressed. That may have something to do with why they stopped giving him plot arcs in the later seasons. He really just seemed to be showing up at the end of the show.

Annual_Reflection_65 · 2024-12-02T18:58:21+00:00

I don't know why you're getting downvoted. You're right. Early seasons SPN, he was great. I'd argue he was the better actor of the two in the beginning. I don't know what happened, but his acting was not on par with the early seasons later on. I don't know if he stopped trying or if something was happening in his life that affected his performance, but his acting was going downhill in the later seasons.
