thinkin about...digital friendships and how you still learn your friends' mannerisms even if you've never seen their faces or heard their voices. like knowing when someone is on their phone and not their computer based on their capitalization or autocorrect. or being able to tell where someone is based on when they reply. leaving asynchronous messages for a friend to read after work. adopting each other's phrases. forming a secondary language together through emote reacts or tag systems. calling each other screen names even when you've learned their in-person name. slowly learning schedules to make digital plans more efficiently than almost anyone does in real life. idk it's just got me misty-eyed that friends in your phone really are friends in your phone!! they're right there!! they're just right there chillin and they've got their own lives but somehow your paths crossed and changed something about you forever, miles and miles away

you ever listen to a song and feel so gutted that you can't even cry like you're just staring at your hands and your heart feels like there's nothing left?

so me and my friend are onto season 4 of X-files now and we got to the csm-centric episode, right. and when he put the sniper rifle up from the window at the start I was like "whoa there. jfk assassination much?"-- and then the flashback starts and wouldn't you fucking know it, csm was the one who killed jfk??
this made me joke about how "what is he, the dark version of forrest gump or something? lmao" (ie. being present at a bunch of historical happenings), and then it seems like I was right because after that, he killed martin luther king too... aND TH E N towards the end, they make a fuckin forrest gump reference???
guys I think I'm finally becoming psychic

I've seen so much good meta but not nearly enough about Jupe & his former costars (including the chimp) like. I saw one person make a parallel between the incident and Jupe's design for his sons' constumes (a head which resembles the cameras and the body of a chimp. also worth noting that he didn't look at him directly- his head was obscured through a tablecloth.) but has anyone made the connection that he needed to reframe 'what really happened' through an SNL skit - one where the chimp was played by a human (once more playing to the theme of personification) and his wife needed to remind him that even trained animals are unpredictable IN THE MOMENT while dealing with a wild one. don't even get me started on the related themes of consumption like the chimp tearing off and/or eating his costars lips and that fact being revealed when Jean Jacket has had enough of her exploitation and eats them all instead of Lucky. or the fact that it's the consumption of the plastic heavily cartoonized (literally full of hot air) version of him that results in Jean Jacket's demise. Or the fact that Jean Jacket rained down change from the people she ate at the show and that's what let Em pay the well to take a picture of her (once more playing into the cycle of consumption)

but the reason that they split was because of the thing i told you about in relation to what caused mira's mental state at the beginning of the story, and then mitzii brought up "hey what is a pair that goes well with the 'in another life, i would have loved to do laundry and taxes with you?' line?? (in tears)" bc mitzii is Like This and i suggested a diff pairing but ALSO thjs one and i will have to go and explain it to mitzii as well bc i haven't uet BUT. fucking fuck dude. Inaaya and Mira. basically they've known each other since middle school, they got together in a tentative way when they entered into high school, and really it was at this time when they were growing a bunch--trying to figure out who they were, experimenting w cheap drugstore makeup and the blackest clothes they could find and a lot of this bled into the giant conglomerate friend group they were part of. they were v close in that they didn't know who they were and didn't know how the fuck to figure it out and they started down that road together in many ways, supporting each other thru queer realizations, mira ranting about how they didn't get it they didn't want to be a girl they couldn't fit into it, inaaya floating outside of the box in sth very related to her liking generally not-boys (even though they definitely liked mira). both of them had a lot relying on them, the oldest sibling in the house that wasn't an emotional wreck or unavailable or an asshole, fitting together under the immense pressure of being 15 and terrified of stepping out of the box that had been carefully constructed around them.
sitting here staring at them with huge eyes. i can feel the attachment coming. but like no that's adorable and i love that for them also me :handshake: them experimenting with $2 drugstore make up

i got mad a family member lied and put everyone in danger for a third time and threw my phone. the screen is cracked to where i can hardly see the upper half of it. and the screen is slightly cutting my hand. the thing is about 6 years old, i never broke the screen before somehow. kinda finding it funny the first crack was so dramatic. i don't feel guilty. and i can get a new phone due to how old this thing is so my headmates won't find out lol
