Imagine if at the end of Get In The Water, Athena appears as an owl flying above the sea and confronts Poseidon and saves Odysseus (like in the actual Odyssey) and signs like a reprise from Little Wolf, I think that would be absolutely epic

One thing i'm obsessed with about charles and think about everyday, is that whenever he touches edwin he doesn't just remove the touch, he drags it and slides his hand, as if each touch wasn't enough and he needs to prolong it

charles was a sticker guy believe me

when it comes to disco elysium, one of my favourite things within the game is the usage of lungs as a motif of love and the representation of this through dolores dei. it’s an incredible way of showing it, as when you love someone or something it almost seems to sustain you, becomes the air that you breathe.

however, another thing i noticed is that an overwhelming majority of the characters smoke. smoking is famously damaging to your health, more specifically to your lungs - almost like smoking is a metaphor for the way these characters show their relationships with others.

some prime examples are:

• harry du bois, who smoked heavily before losing his memory (and after, depending on player choice), a clear instance because of dora and her effect on his life and relationships for years after she left

• the smoker on the balcony, who is never seen without a cigarette, and is in an unloving sexual relationship with someone who can never understand him or truly know him at all

• klaasje amandou, who is also never seen without a cigarette, believes that she is at fault for all of her relationships collapsing and has a skewed view on what it means to love

however, my favourite example is, of course, kim kitsuragi. yes, he smokes as he enjoys the control he has over his addiction and the “cool factor” it gives him is satisfying, but i think there’s a more specific reason there - kim is so repressed that he consistently walls himself off from relationships.

kim himself says that he smokes one a day as he goes over his notes. to me, this says that he is causing minor, daily damage to his interpersonal relationships that builds up more and more over time. the fact that he does it specifically when going over notes says a lot to me too - that his work is what he’s using to push others away.

he does break this one a day rule, however - in the ending where the player chooses not to recruit kim. harry leaves kim behind. they shake hands, and as soon as harry turns away, kim lights a cigarette, a visual representation of the damage caused by another partnership cut short.

It's really not surprising that @netflix is losing a LOT of money this week. Within the span of just a couple of weeks, they:

Ended one of their most beloved shows (TUA) in what was literally one of the worst conclusions ever written

Announced a homophobic version of Dorian Gray where Basil and Dorian were brothers

Canceled a critically acclaimed new show (DBDA) after one season despite its large, dedicated fanbase after failing to market that show

Implemented ads on Netflix plans that did not previously have them, essentially serving as a price increase for a lot of people

This is a genuinely insane metric to see, especially for a company as large as @netflix. Honestly, it's super embarrassing, but a natural product of their recent behaviour.
