Yeah, I'd say the angelic civil war is over. Michael and Lucifer are in the cage and Castiel wiped out all of Raphael's followers. I wonder who the Leviathans work for. In the last episode, they mentioned a boss that doesn't like "bad news". As for what their plans are, I guess they simply want to feed on humans discretely.

I think we have to assume god didn't give the angels as much power and that only the first couple of angels even knew about their existence. I feel we will be seeing more of Lucifer, Rafael (did he die? I forgot) etc.

I do hope so...

dont think Raphael is gonna make a re-appearance, but there's a possibility Michael, Lucifer might.

Heck God might bring back Gabriel (since he turned good guy at the very end :p)

Rafael looked pretty dead to me at the end of the season so I don't think he'll be back. Besides, unless the show totally skips out on most of the hierarchy of Heaven, then there are loads of more powerful beings up there besides just Angels and Arcangels which are, iirc, actually at the low end of the spectrum.

Leviathans might be more powerful than angels, but I doubt they can take on archangels and live. As far as heaven is concerned, methinks archangels are the highest end of the spectrum.

I'm happy that the new season has answered my questions as to "what" Eve was.

Judging from the black goo she leaked when she died, she was a Leviathan too. Who woulda thunk it?

That's what people would tend to think but you're forgetting about quite a few other heavinly beings up there. The show hasn't even touched on them because I figure few people even know or ever heard about them so they're sticking with what people know already.

Working off of the angelic hierarchy then the order from highest to lowest is...

Seraphim

Cherubim

Thrones

Dominions

Virtues

Powers

Principalities

Archangels

Angels.

The fact they probably only use Angels and Archangels in the show is because, iirc, those are the only two that can have direct contact with humans? I'd have to double check. The others are up in heaven making sure the universe keeps turning or w/e. :p

Ahh yeah... good recollection :)

I remember when Cass mentioned in S5 about cupids and other types of angels who "kept the wheels running", but even then he said they took their orders from Michael and other "executives". Add to that the fact that Anna said that the archangels are only angels who've seen God face-to-face... and the fact that archangels dont need to be "connected to heaven" to use all their powers. All this led me to believe they were highest 1337s of heaven.

But yeah, you're right about the show building its lore on what's popular with the people, so we probably wont be seeing all those other creatures.

Yeah, I think it would confuse a lot of people. After all, archangels are the most powerful beings in the current Supernatural universe. Actually, I think Death might be more powerful.

Anyway:

They're the first angels and also the only angels to have seen God. With Gabriel and Raphael dead, that leaves only Michael and Lucifer (both of whom are in the cage). It'll be interesting to see if God intervenes again like He did in previous episodes. It would also be interesting if Sam and Dean come across Joshua again. He's an angel (in heaven) that can speak to God.

Girl: How did you find me?

Sam: You dropped this. (Holding up scrap of paper*

Sam: Amy Pond, huh... cute name.

Heh, and earlier on there was a shout-out to My Bloody Valentine. Love this show sometimes, to be honest. :laugh:

The last episode was pretty amusing. :laugh:

Did anyone else feel as though Osiris was defeated a little too easily? He didn't even hear Sam sneak up behind him. I was hoping to see him get tossed around a bit to make it look like a struggle.

    • AltSendme 0.4.1 by Razvan Serea AltSendme is a minimal, cross-platform application designed for fast, secure, and private peer-to-peer file transfers. It allows users to send files or entire directories directly between devices without relying on cloud servers, accounts, or any personal information. Everything is encrypted end-to-end using modern protocols like QUIC and TLS 1.3, ensuring both strong security and low-latency performance. Transfers are verified with BLAKE3 for data integrity, and interrupted downloads automatically resume, making the experience reliable even on unstable connections. You can transfer anything—images, videos, documents, and more. Integrity checks are performed on both ends, so your files are automatically verified for correctness during both sending and receiving. AltSendme works seamlessly across local networks or long-distance links, capable of saturating multi-gigabit connections for extremely fast delivery. With built-in NAT traversal and encrypted relay fallback, it connects devices almost anywhere. The app integrates with the Sendme CLI and will soon support mobile and web platforms. Fully free and open-source, AltSendme offers a lightweight, privacy-first alternative to traditional cloud-based services, removing size limits, upload costs, and unnecessary data exposure. AltSendme 0.4.1 changelog: Release Highlights Self-hosted relays: Run your own iroh relay so transfers don't rely on public infrastructure. Includes a full deployment template in deploy/relay/ with Docker Compose for a VPS and configuration examples for production use. Fly.io support: One-click deploy template for Fly.io, including a quick-start config (fly.dev.toml) for testing without a custom domain, plus production setup with Let's Encrypt and your own hostname. Relay settings UI: New Settings → Network panel to choose how AltSendme connects: automatic public relays, custom self-hosted URLs (with optional auth token), or disabled. Test connections, verify latency, and see live relay status in the footer. Disable relays: Turn off relay servers entirely when you only need same-network transfers (e.g. LAN). Direct connections only. No relay hop required when devices can reach each other. Android graduates from beta: Android is now part of the regular release cycle alongside desktop. APKs ship with each version (universal, arm64, and armv7). Other improvements Private relay access control via shared auth token Relay fallback notifications when a custom relay is unreachable Broadcast mode toggle in sharing settings Android release build fixes (split-per-ABI APKs, universal APK preservation) UI polish: mobile safe-area insets, dropzone layout, transfer progress animation Bug fixes for minification-related serialization issues and system tray icon loading What's Changed feat(relay): add relay status functionality and settings UI (a120cdf) feat(relay): implement custom relay server configuration and verification (51276c7) feat(relay): add configuration for private relay access and enhance observability features (48fbabf) feat(relay): enhance relay URL validation, display connection status (d4fffa0) feat(relay): add RelayChangeGuard component and enhance relay-related translations (16ba514) feat(broadcast): add toggle setting for broadcast mode in sharing UI (ca6d977) fix(relay): correct QUIC discovery port, pin image, templatize fly.dev (52a2ba5) fix: More broken serialization due to minification (67491a9) fix(android): preserve true universal APK across per-ABI builds (e9f256f) fix(ui): conditional safe-area insets padding on mobile (1182f0e) refactor(transfer): CircularRing component animation fix (944572b) chore(android): drop x86 and x86_64 release APKs, keep universal+arm64+armv7 (34ada0b) Download: AltSendme 0.4.1 | ARM64 | ~9.0 MB (Open Source) Download: AltSendme for MacOS | Android Links: AltSendme Home Page | GitHub | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • You are mostly right about the ephemeral nature of it. As I mention in the article, if you dont add a second device or take a backup of your account before uninstalling it, then yes you will lose access to your account. That said, in terms of actual user experience when you sync multiple devices your message history carries across and there's also a Saved Messages chat like there is on Telegram to send messages and attachments between your installs. But yh, what you point out are correct and its not trying to emulate Messenger or Telegram.
    • OK so SearXNG is a meta search engine that you can install locally or use via a public instance. It scrapes other search engines which you choose and then sorts the results. Not as complicated as multiple relays
    • The only difference here is that you think you came up with these reasons. You didn't. These age old fearmongering lies (that were NEVER true) were funded by and the anger stoked by Putin through proxies like Farage (and later in the USA, Trump) and filtered down through the skinheads, Neonazis, etc. until it reached the uninformed, ignorant, and gullible -- never realizing they were being played for fools against their own best interests. Even now, despite all of the EVIDENCE proving that Brexit was a terrible mistake for ALL citizens of the UK and that its supporters were tricked by Putin's proxies into sabotaging their own nation, you're still here defending these well-known lies as if they were ever true. Not only are they not true. They NEVER were. So, when are you going to realize that you were lied to and actually get angry at the liars and charlatans who lied to you, instead of blaming the innocent people they lied to you about?
