Very interesting to me that Abigail preferred Hannibal over Will, but Will had an emotional connection to her that Hannibal didn't - or at least not to the same extent.
I think maybe one day he could've found a stronger bond considering she had also killed and eaten people, but during the series she's really just a tool. Hannibal uses her to like... babytrap Will. And tbf it worked, Will didn't tell Jack what he knew when he discovered Abigail murdered that guy - if he was willing to cover for her, maybe eventually he'd cover for Hannibal too, the 3 of them too intrinsically tied for him to separate, I mean that's the trapping part. But she was just a means to an end, a relationship Hannibal nurtured for his own gain with Will....whereas Will really did view her as his daughter.
Very interesting to me...off-put by Will (especially towards the end of s1), but he had the most vested interest in her well-being out of the pair...
#Thinking abt in s2 when Will still thinks she's dead and asks Freddie not to write about her#And also in s3 when his subconscious takes the form of her#I'm not saying he would have been great or that he's the superior parent or that he's without flaw no no no#(although will graham IS without flaw <33)#But just that he did have a genuine affection for her that Hannibal didnt#Which makes it so much more intriguing that she was always going to Hannibal for things...#Which obviously a lot of that makes sense within the context of him knowing she killed that guy#And her knowing he helped get rid of the body#Like yeah ur both bound by secrets but even THAT was a ploy by Hannibal#But anyway of course you'd go to that person bc that automatically assigns a modicum of trust between you#But she did also just seem to enjoy his company#And listen Will can't be blamed for the end of s1 when he was freaking her out#His brain was literally being boiled in its own juices#He was Not Well#But he was trying#Anyway#Me attempting not to start every post with 'thinking about...'#Several of my drafts start like that and idk what to do#I'm a thinker!! I'm thinking!!#hannibal#hannibal lecter#will graham#hannigram#murder husbands#hannibal nbc

this isn't a fully formed thought, but some of the ways people "critique" kotlc is starting to bother me a little. there's genuine critique and criticism, but some of them feel like...condescending almost? talking down on the series to show they're better/more mature than to like it. or that they're better than Shannon--I feel I see a lot of condescending to Shannon (WHAT is she doing, why would she do that, we can tell you don't plan, does she even know her own series?)
and i've definitely been guilty of it before and have my share of criticisms, but it does make me want to go like. okay but you do also like the series though, right? that's why we're all here--we're here by choice, much as I joke about being held hostage. there is an appreciation for the good parts and the community and everything else under all that, right? right??
#kotlc discourse#again! not a fully formed thought or critique. and not about anyone in particular#this is about a general sentiment i feel i'm seeing pop up repeatedly#and i'm just like. you can be a critical thinker and also genuinely enjoy the sparkle elf series#we won't think down on you for liking it. we also like it.#you don't need to put it down like a dog to be taken seriously as a reader#and as a reader i'm hesitant to talk about the series with you#since I feel you'd also look down on me for having parts of it i do genuinely like and that mean a lot to me#anyway. maybe i'll clean this up later maybe not

One thing I'll always find funny is Tobirama trying to make this random plea for the democratic process to keep Madara (and the Uchiha) out of power due to his own prejudiced fears.
And then doing an absolute 180 on all that when he's in power so he can self-select and field promote his own student (but of course not Kagami 'one of the good ones' Uchiha lol).
Where did all that talk about public discourse and democracy go, king? Think of the social contract, Tobirama! The separation of powers!
#Tobirama Senju#anti tobirama#Hiruzen Sarutobi#anti konoha#naruto founders#naruto#not serious#Also 'hashirama grow a spine when calling out your racist brother challenge' level: impossible ...#Democracy was deadass a one-time excuse for Tobirama to justify his prejudices; he did NOT believe in that shit when it didn't benefit lol.#And democracy doesn't even work in this universe because their governance only 'exists' because the feudal oligarchs (daimyo) permit it to.#OR did they honestly try democracy Tobirama's way only for the daimyo to shut that down so now it's this undemocratic appointed by the -#- current Hokage then 'approved' by daimyo set-up? Much to contemplate.#Not to grant Tobirama anything here but the analyst in me does need to caveat that TECHNICALLY in the first panel they're in peace vs the -#- second... but like we know the Leaf doesn't do democracy lol they just groom Senju-approved 'Will-of-Fire' bootlickers for the job.#Unironically if we take 1st panel genuinely I think Tobirama might actually agree -#- with a lot of Enlightment thinkers but he'd still disagree in so many other ways haha.#Could be a fun future essay idea - especially wrt how the principles of democracy can be violated and corrupted.#Also this isn't entirely serious because I do think it's funny and characters can (and should in some cases) be hypocritical for the pur-#-pose of storytelling. Just fyi.#Hashirama Senju#I'm sorry you caught a stray in my tags Hashirama lol.

I once read this very popular Worm/Sky High fanfic that was just post-GM Taylor being transplanted into the Sky High universe, inwardly sneering at everyone there for having a lower PRT rating than her, musing about how she was the most powerful person in the school, bragging about the people she'd killed, mumbling about power ratings to characters who obviously had no idea what the fuck she was referring to, and then handily defeating the main Sky High villain in half a chapter
it wasn't satire, just an example of your basic average wormfic
#wormblr#wormwebserial#wildbow#parahumans#worm fanfic#wormfic#taylor please you have to stop muttering about being a master 8 to yourself#she also thinks “I'm a thinker 5” at one point

I love when people are like shocked and horrified about the latine vote always going red like. every latine in this country is gonna go "yeah?" like it's not surprising. those of us that are leftists agree that it's fucking stupid and I promise you we're more frustrated than you are, but like. never a shocking event.
#it's so funny bc I'm like man what way will my family vote hm!#oh you mean the family that refused to get vaccinated thinks covid is a lie and genuinely thinks I'm possessed by demons for being queer?#it's a fucking thinker that one#and I hear similar sentiments from most leftist latines bc it's like yeah we know our families#do YOU guys know anything about them or do you think all people of color are a monolith

he didn't text me today. he's been texting me daily for the last couple of days. I'm scared it's because of what I said yesterday. all I can do is hope that he hasn't figured out I'm in love with him
#bro is an over thinker so it shouldn't take him long to figure it out if he tried hard enough#like all he has to do is think about every single interaction we've ever had#I'm sure I look at him like he hung the moon#even *I* know it's obvious#what the hell am I supposed to do if he does figure it out#male teacher crush#teacher crush#teacher crush community#teacher and student#male teacher x female student#s#male tc#teacher crush blog#teacher crush confessions#tc crush#tcc#tc community#teacher x student

hey so i wanted to know: do you ever get in moods where you just want to stop trying and just live selfishly.
like every time i see some new horrific and/or misogynistic development going on in the world i really do just feel like saying fuck it and just living my life the best i can. what’s the point of depriving myself of romantic relationships (im straight) as a political statement. does that make any sense.
i guess im wondering if anyone else feels similarly sometimes lol
i sat on this for several days because honestly i feel like a lot of people take the celibacy/avoiding men thing in a way that's a little ridiculous (like as if women are class traitors for just being in heterosexual relationships) - to me it's just something where you have to be aware of the risks to yourself and come up with a plan for if/when things go sideways. as fucked up as that sounds
like idk i'm not really someone who believes in ... all that... i think it just gets a little silly. so like for me i don't really view it as being selfish if i do decide to pursue men romantically. i'm just really guarded with men in general in order to protect myself. that's all you can really expect from people if you're reasonable
#i have had people like come into my inbox talking down to me for talking about men on my blog lol which is#idk why people see me make posts about feminism and think i'm like trying to be some kind of big thinker or something#i say what i think about on my blog that's all i'm ever doing. a lot of it is about feminism bc that interests me right now...#but at the end of the day i'm also just a regular woman who is attracted to men and sometimes that ends up being something i mention#but yeah idk just be careful but i don't really think you're betraying your morals or a wider movement if you decide to date men or st...

I don't like debating against anti-civs/primitivists because it's. well. a completely unviable ideology which is, ironically, only supported by twitter weirdoes, but I remember that "what would you do in the leftist commune" thread before it got flooded by trolls, and someone answered earnestly "I would make clothes from scraps!", what is this, fucking Fallout?
Even middle ages peasants could clear the incredibly low bar of "making new clothes", is that really the best future you can think of? is that really socialist utopia for you? a middle ages village with D&D nights? Yuri Gagarin didn't fly to space for this shit.
#cosas mias#and Gagarin is just an extreme example because for the third world socialism is education is health a full belly and a roof over your head.#...science arts sports... the ones who want us to keep mucking around like peasants are capitalists oligarchs. think about it.#also I won't pretend I'm the most well versed about theory but I'm pretty sure no major communist or socialist thinker says that is desirab#Marx and Engels are pretty clear about the role of technology in the development of the proletariat I think...

my cottagecore toxic yuri cousins who claimed to have good taste totally ruined me for a second there lmfao
#i was soooo put off by their taste + it's not like it was bad at all but it just wasn't for me#and like to only have them as role models was just too scary haha#i just hate isolation too much for all of that + there's an ignorance that comes with isolation + peace as well#idk. lots to think about. and like i just have different furniture tastes. layout tastes. i'm too aware of the structure of a room lol#i also just don't like being yelled at + i don't like being talked down to lol#i think it's hard when a lot of your family has gone. you have these great role models in youth and then they're gone and you can't#ask them for help and you might try to remember the layouts of their houses or the titles of their books but they're just gone#and you were too young to ask them about what really mattered when they died so it's like just too unfortunate.#but who knows. maybe it's better to have a space like that in your mind that's so untouched by adulthood. you can go back to a place#of pure idealism and twist it without realizing to become anything you want and then you can see in it just what it is that you want when#you've lost track of it in reality.#like i don't know a lot about the people i really looked up to but the impression i got was that they were insanely deep thinkers who#weren't afraid of living during tough times. who can say if that's true through and through but maybe there's a certain longing in grief#that's sort of liberating. like someone who you really admire becomes a place for you to look at the sort of person you'd like to be#i pick up books and think 'if she was alive today maybe she'd enjoy this too' and then i find myself pursuing something i wanted to pursue#but couldn't find the personhood within myself to do so

#I really like the “We're the bad guys' enemy” line. For someone I generally despise Dazai has all my favourite lines in this show…#Idk I can't really vibe with the unbalance that there is between s/kk.#Like when push comes to shove‚ Dazai has the power to keep Chuuya alive or let him die.#I understand why they make a compelling dynamic in their complexity‚ but it just doesn't do it for me.#I'm a little sad my opinion on them hasn't really changed since I watched the anime for the first time...#Also; I really can't vibe with Chuuya allowing Dazai to kill Q. Yes I know Chuuya cares about his comrades deeply.#Yes I know it can be interpreted as Chuuya seeing himself in Q as a living weapon and being disgusted by it#(though I honestly don't think that was intentional of the author).#Yes I know Chuuya is a mafioso and kills people. No I don't think your personal issues justify you being a dick to other people I'm sorry.#Back to my main annoyance with the episode: I must have already talked about this but I hate hate hate the narrative#“the mafia works for the city” “the mafia deeply loves the city too” it's so so sickening and insulting please stop I'm begging.#Please visit any actual city with a rooted mafia presence for once in your life (signed: someone whose hometown was destroyed by the mafia.#The writers really don't know what they're talking about and‚ politely‚ it's offensive.)#Also b/sd keeping being extremely nationalist with Mori (who's largely depicted unsimphatetically for the first part of the episode)–#bringing up western thinkers and subtly mocking Fukuzawa for not knowing them–#and Fukuzawa (the righteous man. the noble spirit and just soul in this episode and Mori's antithesis)–#stepping forward to say that he knows strategists from the east (because who else would he need?)#I don't know if it's meant to symbolize the conflict with an hostile and invading foreign power (the Guild).#But it does come across as. A very isolationist way of thinking.#I know it's subtle but it's really evident for me. And I didn't want to talk about this any further…#But by bringing actual examples of this I hope I can better explain why I think that b/sd holds nationalist views–#and that I'm not just making it up out of nowhere. Otherwise I fear I'd only come off as pettily hostile to b/sd in everything#That's it. I feel like I've been losing a lot of mutuals over my main recently due to not shutting up (sorry)#so I suppose it's only fair I lose them on here too pffttt.#Tune in next week for more bad takes#random rambles

i stand by my conviction that the best way to read tged is by stopping in ch 401 but i do have a rant concerning ch 402 that is locked and loaded for posting and i don't know if i should wait for today's chapter to drop so you guys have the full context or if i should pretend it isn't happening and i'm talking about a hypothetical ending that definitely didn't happen
#i talk a lot <3#god. i wish you guys could listen into my brain. it feels like the highway here the way those thoughts speed by me#i'm a very fast thinker but not in a 'takes good decisions quickly'#it's more of a 'if you don't say what you're thinking right now that thought will be gone forever in two seconds'#also i talk exactly the way i write it is non stop with me once you get me going i barely stop to breathe i am exhausting#where was i going with this#ah yes should i post it now or do i wait for later tonight#this is for the people that are reading the novel you poor souls i've spoiled the novel for... i'm sorry it's too late for you

another interesting thing is that fascism warping perceptions of artistic beauty in the regions where it flourished was and still is a very real phenomenon, but if you think that fascist art was just soooo good intrinsically and that that made it useful for indoctrinating people you've very much got it backwards (as op of that post pointed out). read Rhinoceros by Eugene Ionesco for free online
#chatter#shameless special interest plug but i really do think everyone could benefit from reading this play#i'm not going to claim to agree with all of ionesco's views etc etc...#he was a left-wing thinker who felt alienated by leftist spaces due to his absolute disdain for any kind of authority or structure#and he allowed that to push him towards centrist/right-wing anarchism later in life which was pretty stupid and self-centered of him#but as a romanian christian with a jewish parent who was racialized as jewish by the nazis and had to flee france during ww2 because of tha#rhinoceros offers a really valuable perspective of what he witnessed among his peers during his time in france leading up to ww2#and this perspective is widely applicable when discussing the cultural ramifications of fascism#ok infodump over

everyone online is gangsta about respecting people's bodies and opinions until a true free thinker hits them with the "I prefer condoms and pads to birth control pills and tampons" and then they will lose their ever loving minds every time
#more condoms than pads tbh. try saying you're a cis woman who prefers condoms and people go crazzzzzzyyyyyy#like damn you might not be worrying about stds and think that condoms just give a cis man control over birth control#but some people still be true free thinkers in this day and age#yom kippur barely started and i'm out here getting heated. this is what no perfume and not working does to a girl#personal#nsft#just to be on the safe side
