No, the Captain got it right. William F. Buckley popularized the phrase (but didn’t coin it) before Wilson and Shae got their hands on it. The Aeschaton or Eschaton (variant spellings) is the end of the world, and to immanentize it is to make it manifest physically in the world rather than being something that only happens after the physical world is gone.
I’d never come across the term before, but it seems to have a wide range of application.
For example, the Neo Marxist invention of Critical Theory to bring about the collapse of Western Civilization, which in turn is supposed to bring about Marx’s Utopia, comes to mind.
I’m thinking Daylla is forcing Cas to up her game. Without Shawna around, Cas might fall back into wishy-washy hesitation. But now, she’ll be forced to either take an active role in engaging a relationship or lose her chance again.
… But the Apocalypse already happened on December 21, almost 5 years ago! [The Mayan Calendar reset.]
Or, are you making a political statement about Castelism?
He is probably thinking that life was both simpler and safer as a butterfly, Fae curse or no Fae curse. Here, he is completely not in control of any aspect of the situation. Back then, he was at least the monarch of all he surveyed.
I think Daylla is a serious contender for this year’s top award in Making A Difficult Situation Far Far Worse. Things could happen here (physical and/or emotional) that none of the players will find the least bit funny. Sure hope it doesn’t come to that… but I really don’t think she’s thought this whole thing through, and maybe doesn’t realize that her friends could end up getting hurt.
Daylla, are you _trying_ to get Shawna maimed or at least singed?
I _think_ Daylla’s trying to force Cas and Hiroshi to stop being so wishy washy and tentative and just get together, but she should be veeeeeeeerrrrrrry careful how she stirs this particular pot.
New girl is a little bit clingy. Little bit
She def. has issues recognizing boundries, reading body language, etc…
Okay, now Daylla is just stirring things up to see if she can immanitze the aeschaton.
Thank you, William F. Buckley! 🙂
Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shae, with excerpts by malcalypse the younger, NOT William F Buckley.
and to Immanetize the Escahton you need a moderate sized orgy OR an enourmous amount of death.
(Ive had to buy 2 or 3 copies of this trilogy)

Immanentize the eschaton. Get it right so people can Google.

That seems likely. She might just be tired of Cass’ tsundere bit. I know tsundere girls get tiresome for me.

its a reference to a very weird series of books The Illuminatus trilogy.
That didn’t happen because of stabbing Monica in the head.
No, it predates the Illuminatus! trilogy.
I would estimate we are one more bit of “help” away from having our favorite thornbush leave the area entirely
Resolution through co-mingling…
co-tingling
Co-tickling might work a bit better…
so would the ingress to the Gryphon club be the griffendor? BA-DUM,TISH! (c8
How dare you slytherin to this comment section carrying a pun like that.
Pretty monstrous, indeed.
Yeah! Clean up that act, or we’ll Hufflepuff and blow you away!
Rave and claw your eyes out.

so now it’s a threesome? ~<3
I’ve seen enough hentai….
I’d argue “they’re children” but quite unfortunately ‘lolicon’ and ‘shotacon’ are a thing.
For those unfamiliar with either term, don’t look them up. Suffice it to say that both are forms of hentai involving characters under the age of 16.
Technically, one is capable of plant tentacles. And I’m ashamed to have had that thought.
He is not a happy camper right now.

Ow.
Right now I’ll bet he’d rather be butterflied and deep fat fried.

Shawna is gonna get a thermonuclear “backoff” (and possibly a tan) from Castela if she’s not careful.
Yeah.

I’m close to pulling out my hair (whats left of it at least and i’m a woman lololol) jeebus this situation is causing me such cringe right now ><
Kevin is also a photographer. Pickle should get advice from him, Tanta Monica, and Tanta Bud about the best way to handle his equipment.
So is Amanda. And she has an interest in ghost hunting.
Daylla, you were doing so well, too…
More thinly veiled innuendo, huzzah.
Yea, verily yea.
“thinly”?????????
VERY thinly, yes. As in “hardly veiled at all”.
This will not end well.
It WILL be entertaining to watch… from a considerable distance.
Minimum safe distance: Pluto.
I’m taking cover behind the fourth wall… Has worked fine so far.
testdrive the equipment, eh? Probably the technical stuff too.
God he has the look of ‘how the hell did I get in this situation’
Ah, Daylla. Don’t you know, the most dangerous animal in the Everglades is the instigator?
The North American animal that kills the largest number of humans each year is the dear . . .
. . .
Or is that the deer?
An absolute dream team! ;-D
Phrasing!
I’m not sure I want to see any pictures of them test driving their equipment.
s”OK, since it’ll be in the dark, we’re just not going to enable any IR type viewing…
Please, make it stop…
…soon.
Just not right now, not yet.
This should be fun…
Oh, and not to be “that guy”, but in this usage the word is complement, not compliment. If you care.
I think our little iron maiden may be another example of demons in the drivers seat.
I’m wondering what sort of creature Shawna is. And can you update the cast page, please, Mr. Taylor?
Why do I get the feeling Shawna just said the wrong thing?
Holy double entendre Batman!
Oh come on Dayla, stop torturing Cass like that.
Daylla, are you _trying_ to get Shawna maimed or at least singed?
I _think_ Daylla’s trying to force Cas and Hiroshi to stop being so wishy washy and tentative and just get together, but she should be veeeeeeeerrrrrrry careful how she stirs this particular pot.
She wants to test drive his equipment.. but I think the “Equipment” she wants to “test drive” has nothing to do w/ cameras.
👆 This 👆
P.S. besides.. cas has dibs! she seen him naked already….
Wow. Really running the ‘test drive’ joke into the ground, huh?
