I Just Realised That Alec Benjamin Most Recent Single The Way You Felt Really Suits Buck From 911, Specifically

I just realised that Alec Benjamin’ most recent single “The Way You Felt” really suits Buck from 911, specifically season 2 Buck where they were picking up from where Abby left.

“The way you felt in my arms

Our chemistry was sacred

Oh, I fell for your charm

I was so infatuated

But you left me in the dark

And my heart completely vacant

Now I don't know~”

These two lines in particular stick out to me: “I was so infatuated” and “But you left me in the dark, and my heart completely vacant”

Abby leaving and constantly ghosting Buck, although he was still “so infatuated” with her because he felt like he loved her and she loved him back and nothing would end their relationship, that this was the the relationship. For the sake of the gods, he was still living in her apartment nearly halfway through season 2. He remained so loyal to her even despite their lack of communication and that she didn’t give him anything in return, no letters or texts, not even bothering to tell him “hey, I’m not into you anymore, we’re over. I am not your girlfriend and you are not my boyfriend anymore” - hence the “my heart complete vacant” parallel.

“How you could look me in the eye

And tell me that you love me

When you knew it was a lie

I was headed for Kentucky

When you called to say goodbye

How did I not see it coming?

Now I don't know~”

“How could you look me in the eye and tell me that you love me” - now I genuinely cannot remember if the words ‘I love you’ was said by Abby to Buck, or vice-versa because I have a really shitty memory, but if they weren’t it probably unsaid. I definitely feel like this is like, Buck’s initial feelings right after he fully accepted that he and Abby were practically over the moment she stepped into the airport because I believe that the whole reason he stayed so faithful to her was because he felt like he genuinely loved her and she loved him. I mean, if I were him, I would see it as betrayal and that is exactly what these lyrics are saying. Also the “how did I not see it coming?”, that’s full Buck to me. Like, I feel like with a personality like his, he’d probably be going how did I not see this coming, why didn’t I see it coming? because he probably really deep down knew that their relationship ending was inevitable, and he knew that literally everyone else knew that it was over for them, and that he was the only one not accepting it.

Did I really need to explain all of this and post it for literally all of tumblr to be able to find and disagree with me? No, but I did it anyways and none of y’all can change my mind. I’m just gonna leave it at this, there’s probably a couple more bits I can piece together and delve into but I’m too lazy and only wanted to get this little bit written down before I forget it.

Though the jokes that "since gay pride month is over, july is now gay wrath month" are funny and all, it's important to remember that July is ACTUALLY Disability Pride Month and y'all should really be focused on boosting disabled voices and issues this month! For instance, the fact that marriage equality doesn't actually truly exist in the United States for disabled people, or the fact that disabled people are forced to live in poverty or lose their disability benefits, or the fact that 1 in 5 people with chronic pain end up sufferring from alcoholism or other addictions, or how accessibility is still a daily battle for all of us, or how there are active hate groups on places like reddit who try to "call out" those they see as "faking" their disabilities.

This July, boost disabled voices. Talk about the issues that our community faces. Call out ableism.

ew why are my hands room temperature thats gross

So many TV shows/movies depict the Epi Pen as a total solution for anaphylaxis...it's not. The Epi Pen gives you 30 minutes to get to a hospital where they can save your life. TV makes it look like you just have to use the Epi Pen and then the crisis is over. Do people without allergies or a loved one with allergies know that an Epi Pen only buys you time? The more I see this on TV the more I worry...

**Maybe you should reblog this because I'm actually worried that most people don't know.

READ THE EPI PEN INSTRUCTIONS TOO!

-Don't cover the back end (blue) of the Epi Pen with your thumb.

-Make sure the Epi Pen clicks when you inject it in the thigh AND hold it down for several seconds.

Big chance I’m not neurodivergent, but this is a safe space for those who are autistic and/or have other neurodivergencies (is that the correct term, I’m really sorry if it’s harmful, please do say if it is).

If you just so happen to support autism $peaks, si@ and her movie, is ableist, or have said something similar to “someone I know has -this particular thing- it’s fine”, kindly f*ck off and don’t go onto this blog again :))

Happy autism acceptance month y’all!!

Edit: I forgot to post this because I genuinely forgot it and drafts existed, I am aware that it is no longer autism acceptance month, however, something I learnt today so it might not be very well, it is July and July is Disability Pride Month as of 2015. There is more information on Instagram (where I found it) on the account @disabilitytogether

Fun fact: I’m autistic I’m gonna do a thing inspired by another person

Reblog if your blog is safe for autistic people or is ran by an autistic person!

Reblog if you stand against Autism Speaks!
