The thing about Chimney is he's like...the only one that hasn't had a significant "I need to quit my job" discussion/arc. Sure, he left to find Maddie, but that was never about a "I don't know if I can help people" or "I am not in my right frame of mind" and it was clear he always, always planned on coming back if he could. I think genuinely he's just content and happy. He knows his place in the world now, he has his wife, his daughter, the baby on the way, his best friend, his brother and brother-in-law, his bantering on the edge of flirty relationship with his boss, and he gets to help people. He doesn't want to be captain, he doesn't want to become a doctor, he doesn't feel the need to constantly prove he's worthy of the job. He found where he belongs and he knows it. It's why he fought so hard to get Maddie back because he KNOWS he found something with her, and even if they weren't together romantically (which obviously that's where they'd end up) he knows that he needs her in his life and as a mom to Jee. And it's so interesting to see him get hurt and maimed and sick all the time. Because he's just a dude trying to get home to his wife and his family and his beautiful, beautiful life. It's what he wanted! And he's so so so different from everyone else in the show because he never seems like he questions if he deserves it. He had a little blip when Maddie was pregnant the first time, but it was covid so I mean, I get it. But every like deeply life threatening thing he goes through, he never says "maybe I deserve to die" or "maybe I deserve this horrible thing" or "maybe my life was going TOO well so I needed to be PUNISHED" He is very much a character who is like "I don't care, I love my life so much that I will let Ravi commit domestic terrorism to save me, and I won't even feel guilty" because Chimney is not a martyr! Bobby, especially would be like "leave me for dead pls" but Chim is like "I have a HOT wife, who attacked a serial killer with a HAMMER to defend me and I MUST get home to her no matter what." It's like he goes through this life or death circumstances all of the time, and he's like if this is the price I must pay for my BIG BEAUTIFUL HAPPY LIFE, then I will gladly do so. Hell, he even makes jokes along the way and whistles and chews his gum. There's no point to this, I just love Chimney and I love that he loves his life when in the beginning he seemed to be looking for more. I'm glad he found it.

YOU hates terfs

I like to think that during Buck’s first year at the 118, he was enthusiastically taking any shift he could because he loves being a firefighter and his real life is lonely.

Then one day, he comes into work and Bobby is just like, come with me. They get in Bobby’s car and he drops Buck off at his house, “If you keep going like this, you’re going to burn out. Take the time.”

And then a few hours later, the 118 comes back from a call and Buck is in the loft. Making a grilled cheese.

Bobby gives him a look like, what the hell. Buck’s eyes go wide and he asks genuinely, “You meant all day?”

POV: your boyfriend just got back from a week long trip from outer space so you have to shut him up before he can make a corny joke

Hen: It's been brought to my attention that I offended some of you. I'm truly sorry, I meant to offend all of you.

fucked up to me that some people dont let their pets on the furniture. you have this little guy in your house and youre not gonna let them sit on the couch with you? no kitty on the bed? incomprehensible.

steve reads the lord of the rings books for eddie but he gets to “don't leave me here alone! it's your sam calling. don't go where i can't follow!” and starts bawling thinking about himself and robin

Neurotypical people have a secret, special way of saying "...okay." that saps all the joy from your body and makes you feel like an idiot, and they love to use it when you show them something you're really, really excited about
