💯. And the ending WASN'T FUCKING HOMOPHOBIC, HOW did some of y'all even have that thought process?? I swear people will watch a queer couple deal with real relationship struggles, and have realistic character arcs, and be like omg, it's HOMOPHOBIC that their relationship isn't PERFECT smh. Stop calling every little thing homophobia, jesus

Also remember guys that the last 15 mins of episode 6 doesn't, like, negate the ENTIRETY of the rest of the show? Remember everything we got in the first 5 episodes? There was SO MUCH to be ecstatic about, y'all can't deal with a little beautifully written angst ffs

some of u r so entitled and it’s lowkey a part of what makes current fandom environment so much worse than it used to be. crowley and aziraphale are non-binary heavenly entities who are canonically in love with each other. we had queer ao3 subplot this season between a coffee shop owner and a record shop owner. crowley and aziraphale KISSED. and it’s still not enough just because it was angsty? because the writers chose for aziraphale to be in character (aka weighed down by 6000 + years of religious trauma and his own personal issues)? aziraphale isn’t strong enough to run away from everything and everyone with crowley. not yet. but he’s a character who is growing. some of you have been threatening for months that you would harass neil & others involved if there wasn’t a kiss, and they gave us one. an incredibly painful but incredibly believable kiss. and intent for a continuation of the story where aziraphale will finally choose humanity/crowley for good. but nooooooooooo that’s not good enough? k.

🙏🙏🙏season 3 !!!!!!🙏🙏🙏

I know I'm gonna be replaying it every morning for the next month

PLEASE EVERYBODY REPLAY IT AS MUCH AS YOU CAN WE NEED SEASON 3

People were asking me what counts to help get Season 3 made. And the answer is, 1) people watching S2 and watching it to the end, 2) people who haven't watched Good Omens before watching Good Omens, which very much includes Season 1.

So if you know people who haven't seen Season 1, get them to watch it. And if you are at the homes of people with Prime Video who have never seen Good Omens, this is your chance to introduce them to the world of Good Omens while helping make a statistic that the algorithm people are following.

“I always remember having this fight with a random dude who claimed that ‘straight white men’ were the only true innovators. His prime example for this was the computer… the computer… THE COMPUTER!!! THE COM-PU-TER!!!

Alan Turing - Gay man and ‘father of computing’ Wren operating Bombe - The code cracking computers of the 2nd world war were entirely run by women Katherine Johnson - African American NASA mathematician and ‘Human computer’ Ada Lovelace - arguably the 1st computer programmer”

i made a thing

Aziraphale's got 6000 years of indoctrination to overcome, he's not just suddenly going to get over it! And Crowley isn't in the right either- they can't run away forever, heaven and hell will still be after them and they can't ignore that completely, but aziraphale thinks that he can /fix/ it, can make it better, so they don't have to worry about heaven and hell and can be free, he's doing this for THEM, you see? He doesn't see himself as betraying Crowley, he sees Crowley as betraying him. And if Crowley came with him, then they could be together AND they could work to fix things, and he's just devastated when Crowley can't see it his way.

And- Crowley can't be an angel again, he doesn't WANT to be an angel again, because he's CHANGED and he's not that person anymore. And aziraphale doesn't realize that. Aziraphale has good intentions, fixing the system from the inside, and he sacrificed love for the greater good, but he doesn't realize that he's being manipulated because the indoctrination is still too strong

i’m obsessed with aziraphale’s ending. how can someone as clever as you be so stupid. because the clutches of good are so much more dangerous than the clutches of evil. being too attached to a good ideology can so easily push you to do evil to uphold it. belief in your own goodness can so easily blind you to the evil you’re doing. aziraphale wasn’t drugged and he doesn’t love heaven more than crowley, he simply values goodness over evil and believes his idealistic view of goodness to be innocent. he’s been indoctrinated by heaven into this black and white view of it. he thinks goodness is this perfect ideal that can be fought for and achieved. he will turn into fucking robespierre. he will become so obsessed with his goodness and so convinced that he’s right that he will guillotine anyone who tries to stop him. he already is robespierre. he guillotined crowley. not because he didn’t love him but because he’s blinded by an obsession to goodness that isn’t goodness. he can’t bare to see someone he loves go against what he believes is the point of the universe. it’s a mercy killing. and he doubted it so strongly. because subconsciously he knows it all. but he believes he’s good and he wants to be so he will do anything to prove it. it’s so difficult for him to abandon the primary principle of his universe. and i think only when he realises that goodness as he believes it does not exist that he’ll realise. at the guillotine himself he’ll understand. goodness can be just as evil as evil. if heaven destroys the earth it will be just as dead as if hell did it. i highly doubt the moral nuance of this will be continued into season three but boy would i love to see it

Good to know people 80 years ago were just as weird and stupid as they are today lmao
