I think a big misunderstanding is the power people give Curly to actually change things about the way the pony express operates or could’ve done things on the Tulpar.
We are talking about a company that docks pay for bad synergy despite mandated psych evals that should tell which staff members would work well together, only allots for 5 hours of sleep despite having literally no other tasks to truly do and locks all resources behind the access of one person. The last one is likely to manage resources and make it easier to justify collective punishment and blaming one person for it; someone needs something in “excess” or the captain gives in? It’s all on them your pay is docked. Instant resentment.
It’s insidious how the company works, it’s by design to distract you from coming after them, to force tensions to line their own pockets. With all the restrictions and forced interactions, altercations are bound to happen. 5 hours of sleep a day, limited sources of entertainment, no real tasks… the monotony alone would cause bad cabin fever, mix that with just only one absolute mediator and you get the exact environment that allows shit like in the game to happen.
The idea he could just complain and try to throw his weight around to get them to dig into their pocket for the crews comfort is laughable and misses the predatory and dehumanizing aspect of capitalism the Pony Express represents. Curly was and is still just another asset to them. Being a top show pony doesn’t mean he’s anywhere close to the actual top. He is the top of the working ladder, not whoever’s in corporate, he wouldn’t even be on the bottom step unlike what Jimmy perceives. The resounding recommendations he would get are almost mocking as they throw him out like nothing just like the rest. Being a shitty fucking company, how much do you bet they’d mean anything anyways, especially since he wanted to leave the field all together.
He made a fuss and they didn’t listen, he says he should’ve done more but you can tell he knows it wouldn’t have changed anything. Jobs like this are willing to make a sacrifice if it means even a penny more. Curly makes a bigger fuss they likely would’ve just found an “unrelated” reason to fire him, hired a more pliable guy or, terrifyingly, promoted Jimmy. The company was failing, going to shut down whether anything happened on the ship or not. But knowing that they were shutting down and that everyone, including him, would be out of a job with this being their last paycheck, he had to factor in not destroying the last bit of their financial stabilities combined with every other issue on the vessel and his own. He gets another cryopod or locks and then he has to break to them that they are not only fired but there will be substantial cuts to their paychecks due to the “upgrades” (things that already should’ve been in place on their part) on top of anything else that could be docked along the way.
You can blame him for saying it so early into the trip but then again, if he mentioned it later who’s to say it wouldn’t have been worse? On the capitalism side alone how would people in a galaxy away from home, out of a job and already stir crazy react? Don’t get me started on how Jimmy would have reacted if he realized he only had two days left to fix what would be a very hard to miss “problem” in his head…
I can’t even consider explaining this as devils advocate because it’s just facts of the world we and they live in and factors that heavily affected the situation. People are just so quick to make claims on the ease of the choices when P.E literally makes it hard to choose to do anything but suck it up.
#this is also like a sort of point that while I wanted Curly to do more for Anya I realized he would have to jeaporsiE the crews safety in#some way like if they needed the cryopods one person would be left without one and like it would be curly he’d offer but don’t think any of#them would be happy or feel okay with letting him die over a rapist? he kills Jimmy and now he has to stand trial and be arrested for murder#because it’s not self defense or manslaughter like they could obviously lie but he wouldn’t let them do that in case of a sort of black box#or guilt on their mind specifically with Daisuke who would likely be kept out of the loop not to mention it’s a dead body with a limited#likely recycled air supply so again he’s getting tried for murder and they are down a cryopod#not to mentions again the fact that you need a copilot like I know like aviation law and shit is crazy and like not common knowledge#but you bed a second set of eyes or someone to trade off with so you don’t loose ur concentration or doze and crash#like they don’t just sit their and do nothing like Jimmy probably did some of the time cause Curly likely didn’t want to make him#cause like pissed off and spiteful Jimmy manning the controls even if just helping is not something he wants to deal with and risk their#lives but i digress I genuinely think the biggest flaw of Curly’s in the situation is being a man who could not handle or understand the#emotional gravity of what Anya experienced especially at the hands of someone who he was also#emotonal/mentally mistreated by and wanted to so badly to believe was his friend and improving#like he did not offer her enough or the proper emotional/physical security he could’ve as a captain nor friend but in that it goes right#back to the systems at play that make it so he isn’t meant or supposed to understand so it can’t be perpetuated and blah blah blah how many#times do I have to explain systematic oppression to certain groups in this fandom and it isn’t cut n dry of good guys bad guys and victims#as outliers of the tow categories l#mouthwashing#captain curly#mouthwashing game#curly mouthwashing#the pony express#The Tulpar

following a blood trail, frothing at the maw
commission for @spinetacks <3
#darby allin#there's a narrative beauty to darby throwing his whole body into his last match with sting#and ever since - cut loose‚ nowhere he belongs - he's been a wild thing breaking his foot breaking his nose#getting hit by cars and wielding flame throwers#everybody smart enough wants him on side but he doesn't have a home. not exactly. he's a feral dog#but he is being left bowls of food by all the neighbourhood guys who like him#so that's something#ANYWAY#clears throat..

ok so I've seen several points about how it's unlikely Gemini is gonna go against the council and I do agree BUT!
BUTBUTBUT
There IS the possibility that the other astrals decided theyre going against them anyway and kick them out or attack them for that (leaving Gemini alone and lost with no choice but to go to something familiar, like Lunar.)
#nobt#So like the astrals accidently cause their own downfall because they kicked out someone they shouldn't have#Bc Gemini I theoretically the strongest astral so imagine them with dark star power ! Not to mention Lunar would probably be pissed about i#And like the astrals don't seem to particularly like Gemini so at the hint of betrayal it makes sense they'd try to cut off loose links#sun and moon show#tsams#sams#lunar and earth show#laes#tlaes gemini#tsams gemini#sams gemini#laes gemini#laes astral body#astral body

people get so so so mad at you when you say Falin is any combination of fat, soft butch, or transfem which is why you should call her a fat butch trans woman more
edit: it's just super annoying when people act like the fanon Falin has no basis and everyone with that headcanon doesn't know what fat/butch/transfem people look like
#dungeon meshi#falin touden#i'll give grace to people that say she's not fat in canon so she shouldn't be considered fat rep. because she's not#but i'll argue that she's transfem-coded and butch-coded#the bonus comic about her mom trying to ''cure'' her by cutting her hair short and preforming an exorcism#the comic of her asking marcille to help her with makeup because she's self-conscious about her appearance#the fact that to save her the touden party has to replace her lower body#that's all trans coding!!!#in the epilogue comics she wears pants and a tunic while most other female characters wear dresses outside the dungeons#and in bonus comics she's most comfortable in loose more masculine clothes and dislikes tight feminine clothes#she prefers more masc styles!

Conversations with another, smaller, weaker self.
#Textual.#ART TAG#vent#I suppose that's the best way to explain this one? It can be complicated. Very complicated. Both for Lord & for myself.#How do you explain to the younger weaker self— the child —that it wasn't their fault. How do you explain that people care & you're sorry?#Because it isn't your fault. It can't be hers. It was someone else's duty to keep you both safe. But they cut your hair & took your body—#& then they made you unrecognizable to anything that has ever existed.#You were a person once & they took the culture out of your blood to remake history. They took the language out & taught you something else.#Lord is a power fantasy as much as she is a painful catharsis. In another world she might have been a savior or a god. But she is angry.#She's angry & bitter & they cut her ears to round them out after cutting her open to make her human. How can she apologize for that?#lord starque#champagne starque#chinuk wawa#To translate loosely. ' 'I am so tired.' ' Who wouldn't be?

Fat Man on a Beach (HTV, 1974)
"I'm going to read some more poems now. Erm. It may be that if you want to go and have a cup of tea, this would be a good time. I know that's what you masses are like. The mention of poetry and off you go."
#fat man on a beach#b.s. johnson#classic tv#documentary#htv#michael bakewell#aled vaughan#a frankly incredible and truly unique piece of television. according to Johnson's biographer‚ the novelist Jonathan Coe‚ this film was#described in tv listings at the time as a documentary about Porth Ceiriad‚ a rather beautiful beach on the Llŷn Peninsula in North Wales#it.. is not that. i can only imagine the baffled reactions of an idle audience tuning into HTV in 1974. true‚ this is entirely filmed at#Porth Ceiriad‚ but any element of travelogue (or even really of documentary) is dispelled almost immediately: the first lines heard are#those of an unseen narrator who tells us we are about to watch a film about a fat man on a beach. 'Do you really want to watch that?' he#asks incredulously. it's a challenge‚ the first of several from Johnson‚ who spends the next 40 minutes variously pottering about the sands#mugging to the camera‚ reciting poetry (his own and others; literary and dirty) and baring his soul. I've never seen anything quite like it#I'm not sure that much has been made that is quite like it tbh. Johnson was a fiercely original‚ brilliant mind; he was a novelist#a poet‚ a critic and a filmmaker. he was also‚ when this first aired on uk tv‚ dead. a few weeks after completing filming on this‚ his#final work‚ he sadly took his own life. i mention it not as a grim factoid but because it is a vital contextualisation of this film; the#play has been described before (and play is not the right word) as a sort of loose form manifesto from Johnson‚ a laying out of his own#peculiar philosophies and interests in a disjointed manner‚ peppered with asides and distractions and filming mishaps (all kept in the#final product). for me‚ the feeling was inescapable that this was like viewing a suicide note. whether Johnson had already come to some#conclusion on that front or not‚ the fact is that his own obsession with morbidity‚ with the spectre of death and of decay (it runs right#through his work‚ particularly his work in film) transforms this into something almost confessional. there's a section of the film where#the author recalls witnessing the aftermath of a traffic accident‚ a motorcyclist thrown through wire fencing and sliced like cheese#the absurdity of the comparison is lingered on‚ Johnson almost stalls and appears to lose his train of thought (briefly discussing instead#the modern mass production of cheese) but he also seems clearly affected‚ delivering the tale in a halting‚ reverent tone#not that this is all darkness and gloom; it's just as often funny‚ or surreal (the film frequently cuts away to a bunch of bananas‚ only#later explained by one of Johnson's biographical recollections) and includes visual puns‚ bad jokes and a few moments of physical comedy#the writer doesn't seem distressed. rather‚ he seems... if not at peace‚ then as though he has come to terms. confident in his own beliefs#and ideals. but perhaps that's reaching too far‚ or reading in what the viewer wishes to read in. the sad fact is that Johnson took his own#life‚ but he left us with a body of work unlike almost anything else‚ and which is still being celebrated and analysed today. rip bsj

One day,,, one day I'll talk about the farm and Lena's extended family and those days after the fall where she was recovering,,,, one day
#after the arrest of course#cut loose with no family no friends and nowhere to go with a disgraced name#heading back to a family she was separated from so many years ago#showing up at the old farm with a duffle bag and tears in her eyes#dropping to her knees as her aunts ans cousins rushed her#the monotonous weeks of hard work later grounding her#body so tired every night that the sleep was dreamless#coming in for good supper#loving the animals and tending to the fields#god i hope this makes sense my brain is stuffy today#big city girl in a pair of mucks with a shovel in her hand and loving every second of it#anyway full meta coming later but come ramble abt this with me in discord

the best part of getting to party with ppl my age was how well people knew their boundaries. the balance of being able to get absolutely zooted until the late hours while also all of us waking up before 8am to make breakfast and clean was genuinely comical
i woke up just before 8am thinking i'd be one of the first to rise but i was the 3rd to last
#[static]#everyone had already cleaned and they were starting to make the group breakfast#ive not been to a party since ... gods 2016?? and we were all a little too eager to over do it back in the day#it was genuinely sweet in its own strange way#then cut to 9am when we went back to party mode#someone brought liquid iv and everyone was making sure we all had lots of snacks and water and sharing the different goods we brought#it was just sweet! a nice weekend to let loose but as my friend said#we are all the 'mom friend' so it was a really safe environment and a bunch of fun#i have never been so stoned in my life for so long but it made me feel more relaxed than I've felt in years tbh#not a worry on my mind and just enjoying the trees and the lake and reading my book and helping my companions who were playing in the water#i dont really like talking about Partaking in drugs in general for several reasons (mainly it makes me cringe @ me)#but i cannot emphasize how i had Zero Worry or Anxiety in my body for the first time in gods know how long#im home now and just ... ready to do things and my brain feels normal for once#no overwhelming chatter about things im anxious about or coming up with things to be anxious about#i will be grateful for the brain-quiet for as long as it lasts

impressed by the extent to which 2316 is an absolute object-lesson in "less is more" on account of "the more you go into the extended hidden stuff the less good the scp itself gets"
#yes i went and looked up the scp both legs and viking have been referencing#i needed to know what the deal is. I Know Now#i mean i don't know EVERYTHING bc i took a look at what we'll call the Extended Cut parts#specifically the links to like 10 other pages#and went nah you know what this is better when it's self-contained#like it's absolutely masterful how well this thing serves as both a decent horror story with killer atmosphere#AND a prime example of how you fuck up that atmosphere by trying to give everything an in-universe answer for the sake of continuity#anyway. yeah. i dont recognize the bodies in the water and i dont want to <3 i like gurdon lights better#txt#misc#orig#debating whether or not i put this in my series tags and ykw. fuck it. sure#dominioners#<- loosely/by association/it's the reason i was here#not mc
