I'm absolutely bonkers over the commentary that ofmd s2 is giving us on morality and redemption actually.

specifically what ed's conversation with hornigold after realising he's in purgatory says for the wider messaging this show has on the idea of retribution. because when he asks "who decides whether I live or die? you?" and hornigold says "no (...) this is on you" it kind of really does call into question a lot of big ideas about the stance this show is taking on what makes someone a good person, or more specifically, what makes someone worthy of being able to live, and ultimately be happy.

it's not like hornigold is some kind of arbiter or higher power with the ability to dictate ed's fate. no one sent hornigold to judge him. ed brought him here himself so they could talk it through and he could decide for himself what the answer is, whether he knows it or not. it's not about god or anything else like that choosing who gets to live and who gets to die. morals don't come into it. it's not about who deserves to live.

it's about who has the strength to try.

and for a show that deals with a cast whom the majority of are objectively bad people, that's such a fucking interesting and actually really enlightening position to take. if this was the kind of show that concerned itself too much with morals or trying to define objective goodness or badness, it'd get very stuck when trying to flesh out a fully realised development arc for its main characters, and they were very smart to not spend too much time trying to answer those questions. in fact, I'd argue that it actively rallies against the notion that only certain kinds of people are redeemable or deserve happiness.

both ed and stede have lived for most of their lives believing they are irredeemable, even that they deserve to die, but they both in turn later have to contend with the truth that they actually don't want to (stede first of all when he kills nigel, then later on faces the firing squad and literally breaks down at the sudden certainty of his death, and ed in the most recent episode). they want to live. they just have a hard time believing there's any reason why they should be able to. it's like they've been waiting for permission. but permission has nothing to do with it. no one's going to decide for you. there's no higher power that tells you an absolute "yes, you deserve another chance" or "no, you're beyond hope". you have to make that decision for yourself.

when stede is first faced with death, that's the first time we hear the question that now echoes across the entire series again and again.

"do you want to live?"

and stede is, in that moment, contending with the realisation, for the first time, that he might be a terrible person. and in that moment he doesn't know how to answer that question, because in that moment he realises he might not deserve to live. but oluwande is asking him, plain and simple, do you WANT to? and he says yes. despite everything, he wants to live. and so our story begins. a story not necessarily about redemption, but about rebirth. about choosing to live, even if you don't think you've earned the right.

and in the first three episodes of season 2, we see ed go through the same motions as he contends with everything he's done. like, hornigold is literally a manifestation of all the terrible things ed's done and the things he hates about himself! and he looked ed in the eye and told him "I don't dictate whether you get to live or die. you have to decide that for yourself. not based on what you think about yourself, or whatever you think you deserve to, but based on if you want to or not".

he's literally faced with the human embodiment of every evil, reprehensible thing he's done, and it tells him that it doesn't decide. that's not what this is about. they don't weigh up what ed's done, about where he crossed the line, about what he can and can't take back or undo, not even about what ed likes about himself, but very simply, what ed likes about living.

like, answering the question "at what point does someone become irredeemable" is an extremely difficult line to tread, and this show could have so easily slipped up whilst trying to answer that question, considering that the majority of its main cast are, yknow, thieves and murderers. ed more than any of them. and yet he's the romantic object of this season. and they make that work by not concerning themselves or anyone else with tricky moral lamentations about goodness or evil. what they ask instead is, "is any of that a reason to give up?"

dying is not a victory. dying is not even necessarily retribution. dying is the only reason things will never get better. even if you think trying to put things right and live a better life is impossible. and it might be impossible. but you will never know unless you try. you might fail but you have a 100% better chance of making things right and doing better if you choose to live than you would if you chose to die. and that's absolutely the journey ed's going on this season.

one thing in particular I'm so glad they've abandoned is that thread about ed not killing people. because it unnecessarily complicated the moral framework of the show and put a kind of expectation on ed's actions that were too hard to maintain with the direction they wanted to take his character this season. they knew it would only muddy the waters when it came to paving out his journey to something better, and I'm glad they took the time to establish that ultimately it was only something that mattered to him, not the narrative. to him it was like he could maintain some semblance of being a half decent person if he only ever killed one person. but now that's gone. he's broken the one rule he had for himself, the one thing holding him back from going off the deep end. and the question remains, can he still come back from this? can he still put things right and fight for a better life for himself? when quite literally all is lost, can you still find it again? and ultimately, the answer is going to be yes. no matter what he's done.

I don't know how much exactly if at all of this is in response to some pushback they got last season about how their main cast are, when all is said and done, pretty bad people, but either way they came out of the gate this season saying actually yeah, you're right. they are bad people. but that doesn't mean they don't deserve a chance at happiness. that's our thesis, actually. it fucking threads that needle and embroiders itself perfectly into the stede-centric narrative last season that told us reinvention was always possible and it was never too late to start afresh once you know what you want from life and it's fucking beautiful. I can't believe they took the moral ambiguity of its principle characters and turned it into the POINT. and I cannot stress this enough, it did this in THREE episodes. I love this show so so much we are so fucking back.

This term came to me in a dream, so the oddness of it is because of that

Also CW for mentions of: RAMCOA and programming, conditioning, manipulation, "system hacking", and general psychological abuse. Also I could see this being a possible paranoia trigger for some.

So I few nights ago I have a dream that I was scrolling through tumblr(real fun and exciting dream, I know/s) and a found a post making a system term. The term doesn't exist, at least not as it was in the dream. I thought it was interesting and possibly useful label, so I decided to make it real.

The label was "Saw System" and this is what the flag looked like in the dream. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to explain it but. It was basically a umbrella term for systems that initially thought their system formed autonomously/has autonomously developed system functions, but later realized that the system was programmed, conditioned, coerced, or otherwise externally shaped.

This term can also be used by systems that formed autonomously, but were later "hijacked" as a form of psychological abuse. This is kinda a just general word for realizing that there might a reason the narrative of "the system is there to protect you" doesn't feel like it's fully true for your system.

Autonomously formed systems refer to system that without external coaxing. This is NOT to say that nothing cause they to form, but rather they form as a "organic" response and/or coping mechanism to outside events and traumas. As apposed to systems that's formation were cause and guided for the benefit of an outside person or people. The internal structures of autonomous systems tend to all be developed by the brain as a way of protecting the system, there may still be persecutors and dangerous elements of the inner world, but they formed without the coercion of an outside person or group

In the dream, term Saw System was after the film franchise. Because the movie often end with a montage revealing how seemingly disconnected were all part of a larger plan. Alternative names could be "Jigsaw System", "Puzzled System", or "Cultivated System",

Also before ask, yes this term does technically apply to us, no I'm not gonna say more about that on this post.

So I made my own versions of the flag from the dream, they're just the different Complex Dissociative Disorder(CDD) flags, but with puzzle pieces being removed and color shifted version underneath. This is to represent both puzzling out what has been done, and hope to be able to undo harmful internal structures that were put in place.

These three are general CDD flags: X X X

Dissociative Identity Disorder(DID) versions

Flags: X X

(Technically the white, orange, and black flag was made to a general system flag, but now it is more used as a DID specific flag)

Highly Complex Dissociative Identity Disorder/Externally Controlled Dissociative Identity Disorder/Programmed Dissociative Identity Disorder(HC-DID/EC-DID/PR-DID), I feel like this is kinda obvious, but if weren't programmed do not use this flag specifically. Just because a system was coerced into forming does NOT inherently mean they were programmed.

Flag: X

Other Specified Dissociate Disorder(OSDD). A general OSDD flag and the OSDD-1 flag

Flags: X X

Other Specified Dissociate Disorder(OSDD) -1A and -1b

Flags: X X

i keep getting tiktoks of these younger gen z kids referencing a time they did something relating to fandom in public and now they're embarrassed by it and everytime i see one i sit there thinking over all of middle and high school and having genuinely 0 moments that i feel embarrassed by, like i definitely did a lot of shit these kids would be embarrassed by but i think these are all just really fucking funny

also photographic evidence of the kinda kid i was. these are from 2014/15 when i was in 8th grade

-desolation row one shot(still on wattpad gerard way/reader smut)

-twerk it on (mcr crack fanfic no longer on wattpad but i have another fic in my library called twerking in taco bell which definitely ALSO used for my reading log)

-frank iero must die(a serial killer/assassin frerard fic, still on wattpad)

-hair (really vague maybe a phanfic? nowhere in my wattpad library rip)

my binder i used in 7th grade i had a blue one that looked pretty similar to this for 8th grade but idk where it went, also the parts i scribbled out are my full legal name i had written on it. i wrote it normally and then the big spot is where i wrote my name REALLY BIG in elysian code from the vladimir tod books. also the lines are from when i used an exacto knife to cut up some papers and forgot that my binder was underneath

in conclusion yall can now see why im so shameless about talking about shigaraki the way i do

[masquerade-flags]

(general/all types) Subsystem flag, simplified

Separated Subsystem, Prism Subsystem, and Nested Subsystem flags

Separated Subsystem - A group of alters that have one or more things that tie them together, despite all having their own internal bodies.

The most common reasons a group of alters would be considered a separated subsystem are usually either, there are strong communication and/or memory barriers between them and the rest of the system. And/or they all split from the same alter and/or formed at the same time for the same reason.

Prism Subsystem - A term we have been using to describe one of our subsystem. More or less meaning a subsystem that often function like a nested subsystem, however alters may sometime leave the shared body, and begin functioning like a separated subsystem. Before returning to their previous state.

Nested Subsystem - A group of alter that share a internal body and usually function similarly to how systems function in the outer world. This is the type most usually think of when the hear the word subsystem.

This description is bad and rambly probably we didn't sleep well

The general flag is supposed to have design aspects reminiscent of the other three and the purple and the kind of orangish color is cuz that's kind of the colors I associate with Alters probably because of the oldest the cdd flag at the teal is for disassociation and dissociative barriers cuz it's the awareness color for disassociation

For the separated subsystem flag the transparency is supposed to represent the both them not sharing an inner World body and distance from other subgroupings within the system

I'm going to be honest the prism subsystem flag is mostly just designed like that cuz it looks kind of like a prism and I thought it would look cool

The nested subsystem is both supposed to resemble nesting dolls as well as having kind of a woven look to represent the physical subsystem of the altars
