i find the horror of "whats the threshold between human and no-longer-human", and of dehumanization incredibly fascinating, and it really feels like thats the direction the magnus protocol is headed. very excited

#the magnus protocol #tmagp #thats what its felt like at least #like with lady mowbray hunting people for sport #or gwen referring to ink5oul as “it” rather than as human #which could def read as transphobic but considering alice #id say thats less likely #the man becoming a tree #needles in and of himself #the [error] being like this nothing of a person #the voices of people we almost recognize preforming actions that we almost recognize #but not quite being human #i think its all really very interesting #tmagp spoilers #the magnus protocol spoilers

do you think it was weird for mike to go to california and experience his first byers family dinner in months just for it to be far too similar to wheeler family dinners

i feel like im not making any sense but does anyone else feel like there are stories that let u run with them and ones that spell everything out for you

#im reading that post that says artists are directors of audience reaction and not its dictator:#'you cannot guarantee that everyone viewing your work will react as you are trying t make them react. a good artist knows that this is what #allows work to breath. by definition you cannot have art where the viewer brings nothing to the table ... this is why you have to let go of #the urge to plainly state in text exactly how you think the work should be interpreted ... its better to be misinterpreted sometimes than #to talk down to your audience. you wont even gain any control that way; people will still develop their opinions no matter what you do #im thinking abt this again cuz i was thinking maybe the thing that lets adventure time work so well the way it does is cuz it doesnt #take itself too seriously that it gives the audience enough room to fuck with subtext and then fuck with them back yknow. i think it was #mentioned somewhere that they werent even planning to run with the postapocalyptic elements that are hinted in the show but changed their #mind after the one off with the frozen businessmen and dominoed into marcy and simons backstory. on the other side there are stories that #explain too much to let the story speak for itself and i think it ends up having to do more with the crew trying to lead ppl in a certain #direction than expand on what they have and i see a lot of this with miraculous. like when interviews and tweets are used as word of god in #arguments and it becomes a little stifling to play around with it knowing the creator can just interject. u can say its the crews effort to #engage with its audience but it feels more like micromanaging. and none of this is to say there ISNT room for stories that spell things out #theyre just suited for different things. if sesame street tried abstract approaches to themes and nuance itd be counterproductive #a lot of things fly over my head so i need help picking things apart to get it- but it doesnt have to be from the story itself. ive picked #picked up or built on my own interpretations listening to other ppl share their thoughts which creates conversation around the same thing #sometimes stories will spell things out for you without being so obvious abt it that it feels like its woven into the text. my fav example #for this might be ATLA using younger characters as its main cast but instead of feeling like its dumbed down for kids to understand why war #is bad its framed from a childs point of view so younger audiences can pick up on it by relating to the characters. maybe an 8 year old #wont get how geopolitics works but at least they get 'hey the world is a little more complicated than everyone vs. fire nation'. same for #steven universe bc its like theyre trying to describe and put feelings into words that kids might not have so they have smth to start with #especially with the metaphors around relationships bc even if it looks unfamiliar as a kid now maybe the hope is for it to be smth you can #look back to. thats why it feels like these shows grew up with me.. instead of saving difficult topics for 'when im ready for it'#as if its preparing me for high school it gave me smth to turn in my hands and revisit again and again as i grow. stories that never #treated u as dumb all along. just someone who could learn and come back to it as many times as u need to. i loved SU for the longest time #but i felt guilty for enjoying it hearing the way ppl bash it. bc i was a kid and thought other ppl understood it better than me and made #feel bad for leaning into the message of paying forward kindness and not questioning why steven didnt punish the diamonds or hold them #accountable. but im rewatching it now and going oh. i still love this show and what it was trying to teach me #yapping #diary

Izzy Hands can have a little "thinking hes incapable of feeling love" as a treat (for me. the treat is for me)

#thinking about arospec izzy again #who experiences love in a way thats so fundamentally different to the way everyone says it should be #that he convinces himself that this couldnt possibly be it #and hes never felt anything remotely affectionate for any other person anyway #so surely hes incapable of it #(and actually itd be cool if he was. love that)#(but also itd be cool if someone did come along and he had to contend with the idea that he can love. its just different)#(hes never going to experience the kinds of love that stedes stories are about. hes always going to be sudden & intense & uncontrollable)#(something he never considers until he does and then its all he knows. and he doesnt express it right because its not the same)#(but oh boy he loves. oh does he love)#anyway. arospec izzy hands thank you for coming to my tag talk #nyxtalks #ofmd #our flag means death #izzy hands #israel hands #arospec #aromantic #aromantic izzy hands #i suppose this is not exclusive to arospec headcanons but like. abnormal love dude. its so aro to me #(i am aro)#i think its so cool and fun and sexy when characters love in ways that dont look like a fairytale #when its devotion and loyalty and belonging (to someone) but never holding your hand or tender kissing #but always bringing you a cup of tea. knowing what you need before you do #love can be many things in fact #but when you spend a life being told its one thing #wont you think youre incapable? at least for a bit?

Half assed screens, but some of the glamours I might will use for Ieeha throughout the journey of Dawntrail!

#its funny cause im actually super nervous #in a way thats really similar to how i felt when heavenward dropped #im as prepared as i possibly can be i think for the way ieeha will look with the new graphics #while trying to remind myself to cling onto the hope of being able to mod him #maybe ill be positively surprised of how he looks but tbh i kinda doubt it with his key features being changed #but ill try to stay positive as much as possible at least #im sad that burnout + lack of PC made me miss out on so much of endwalker #i think thats why i dont feel ready for dawntrail yet... because i dont feel done with endwalker #but ill just do all the things im behind on after!!!!!!#ieeha de verral #ieeha #my screenshot #ffxiv glamour #also someone once pointed out i use the maid tights a lot #and they were right. but its still nowhere near how much i use the midan horn of healing #im serious its been the key feature of ALL of ieehas healer glams since...... when did midas drop? early 2016? since then #the field commanders gloves are my second most glamoured item most likely #especially since is for all classes.......#i want to use other headpieces but they either clip or arent visible under ieehas bangs #or they just look off #who knows what will happen in DT... maybe he'll find a new hairstyle or smth. he's had the same since like 2018 #TIME SHALL TELL HEHE

watched the 2004 punisher movie yesterday with pixie and honestly i had fun 👍 some stuff was good some stuff was eh some completely irrelevant stuff made me mildly annoyed. but most of all it was funny and they had frank hang around with his tits out for multiple scenes so i mean how could i not have a great time tbh

#marvel #frank castle #the punisher #its also the movie that has the frame that i found like. on a wiki or something? and that pushed me down the punisher rabbithole #maybe im insane but i REALLY liked how frank looked in that movie. lost. confused. profoundly sad. bare chest glistening with sweat #whats not to like honestly. i also felt incredibly bad for thinking this the entire movie because im actually going. a little insane #like lately i just feel generally bad for liking frank in that way at all. as in both romantic and sexual. just. im sorry frank really #so the entire movie id hide my face in my hands every couple of minutes going 'oh god hes so hot im so sorry hes so hot im sorry'#what the fuck is this kid doing #anyway the thing i also liked on a more serious note was that the death of maria and his son was dragged out #because it like. like it kept going. and going. and with every second we both just felt this sense of like. dread and helplessness yk #like you KNOW theyre going to die anyway. and yet you watch them struggle and. its such a specific emotion #my least favorite horror story from a book i had invoked the same emotion in me but worse #and it was called sth like 'the torture of hope' so like. thats the best description i can give #also the thing that annoyed me for no reason was joan being blonde. why is she BLONDEEEEE #SHE JUST LOOKS LIKE MARIA LIGHT THIS IS SO. STUPID #also poor third neighbour but i assume in this movie he had the same role as in the comic (none) because its the 2004 one #i liked daves vibe. seemed like the type of guy my friend karol would have us smoke weed with on her birthday #and also he was just like me fr

What the fuck man

#she...wasnt even racist and outgrew her antisjw phase #like...she spent many more years telling people that people who identify as antisjws are stupid #also iirc she moved to Germany. that was the plan she and her boyfriend had at least and were enacting #but i never really got if thats where they actually ended up and i always felt way too awkward to ask #like idk i felt like i was supposed to get what country they were in from the conversation itself #as you can probably guess im not very fond of this fuck wishing death on my friend #but the point is that its fucked up to wish death on any refugee running away from a near certain death like whats your fucking problem #imagine hearing that a trans woman from a country actively trying to kill her is running away and passing through Ukraine and your reaction #being 'oooh i hope the colonisers kill her too while theyre busy killing the Ukrainians'#she didnt even do anything to you man

me: so yeah i feel super dizzy and lightheaded when i stand up and also just at random times of the day and also my heart just starts pounding randomly and it skips a beat randomly at least once a day and im also experiencing these other small things that i realized probably arent normal

the cardiologist: yeah, your heart’s beating too fast, but that’s just Normal Teenager Things™️! probably just like dehydration or something lol

#at least he sent me for blood tests and stuff #(which all came back normal)#and i have to wear a heart monitor for three days #my parents got mad at me because its been happening for a while and i didnt say anything #but in my defense i genuinely just didnt know that it wasnt normal #i thought that it just happened sometimes #also i didnt know the amount until i actually started to have to track it for the heart monitor #and maybe im not drinking Enough water but i genuinely dont think thats the main issue #i could be completely wrong but it feels like its more than that #we’ll see i guess #once im done with this and they get the results in and decide if they want to just brush it off or whatever #also had a nurse who was like weirdly insistent that i mustve been drinking a shit ton of soft drinks #just cause i mentioned that ill have a soft drink with meals sometimes (not nearly to the extent she was trying to say)#and she wouldnt believe me or my mom when we said that the soft drinks are pretty much always zero-sugar zero-caffeine #tachycardia #i mean thats what the doctor said it looks like #i dont really know what else to tag #chronic illness #maybe???#i dont know i dont have a diagnosis or anything so i dont wanna be like “oh thats def what that is”#also #pots #possibly #i did a shit ton of research on my own and i just really felt like what i was experiencing was lining up with it #but i dont wanna self diagnose

still haven't moved on from zane in this episode (aka I hit tag limit again and am unhappy about it)

#alek insanity #not gonna main tag this but prepare for a tiny rant #home is actually really good zane characterization and its super cool to me how it holds up to this day #s1 characterization is very specific to me because the behaviors displayed by the ninja there (mostly) isnt bc thats how they really are but #its due to societal pressure. cole originally being more 'stone faced tough guy' -> 'down to earth' -> 'really sensible easy to talk to guy'#is because hes always been a sensitive guy... but he felt he couldnt express that true version of himself. thats the whole thing behind his #true potential. jay going from s1 -> s6 -> now is less of societal pressure and more teenager figuring himself out but it still applies. ish #seeing how much the ninja have changed or grown from then to now is amazing because back then they all wore masks. they didnt know each #other all that well. but theyve gained that comfortability with each other and also have grown and matured as people #some seasons / eps characterization for certain people im not a fan of (lloyds random misogyny arc in s13) but i mean the overall trend here #and then there is zane. zane in home was pretty dead on to how he behaves now (at least... when it comes to his faults?) and i dont want to #say people skim over that but i am the sf proclaimed n1 s1e2 fan and overthink every scene. zane's early characterization is some of my fav #for him period. he also goes through a ton of traumatic stuff and a ton of bad writing bouts but why he acts so 'weird' or 'distant' has #always been a thread sewn in. he changed so much he stayed the same in a way... if that makes sense. -> ohhh the ninja get mail and he #doesnt? oh he has no family? he quite literally walks away from that situation. oh the ninja are yelling in his face and asking whats wrong #with him? he literally walks away from that situation. he says its to follow the falcon but seeing how he apologized to them by not only #baking a ton of pies (cough... the food fight is what led to him leaving at first) but he also found them a whole entire new house.#zane is unable to truly value what he does for others. insert him in s11 saying he 'tried' to fufill his goal of protecting others.#everything he has ever done still isnt good enough. then the ninja tried to apologize and he didnt really... let them.#that one post about characters putting on facades and that facade being how people really see them. even in fandom. thats zane to me #the guy who lies about being upset and avoids his problems ran away after being yelled at? and he said he wasnt really mad? that is a lie!!#him being a ~360 when it comes to his character development is neat to me because he never hid behind a mask in the same way the others did #cole wanting to seem tough vs being really soft? kai wanting approval so bad he starts being selfish? kai isnt selfish usually!#he is self centered but that is a whole different thing. just wanting to fit in and breaking free of that. zane's true potential came in the #form of 'i finally know why i am not normal' instead of 'i will be my true self'. zane never pretended to not be weird #(instert book) states he literally didnt know why people got mad at him. he just existed and it was 'wrong'. the mask he hid behind was #avoidance. he was pretty open about how he actually was (most of the time). when he was upset he would audibly sigh and walk away lol #but for him saying he wasnt upset / saddened by the ninja... it felt like a moment of selflessness. if that makes sense. he blamed himself #for the monestary burning down. so he didnt deserve the apologies (ish) in the virtues of spinjitzu zane is shown as the generous one iirc #he puts the needs of others over his own. he will bear whatever burden he needs if others are happy. at that same time he doesnt allow

#had an interesting conversation with my sister the other day. odd i guess bc my sister is pretty smart #on paper shes smarter than me. or at least less dyslexic than me #but she didnt seem to kno what cancer is. i mean like how it works. i mean. cancer is a mistake. a confluence of unfortunate accidents #leading to unrestrained cellular growth. when it metastasizes. when it moves to other parts of the body. those same cells continue growing #if u have smooth muscle cancer and it moves to your kidney. you body is trying to grow more smooth muscle on your kidney #at least as i understand it. and she asked why it wants to kill you. it doesnt want anything. it just is. its not a thing of malicious #intent. its neutral. it grows. it takes up resources. it takes up space. and it grows and grows until the organ it grows on stops #functioning properly. like a parasite she said. but no. not like a parasite. it grows like an empty space. a mass of flesh. a constant #obstructive pressure. it grows like only a tumor can. i dunno. it didnt seem to connect with her that this thing didnt want to kill our mom #but it did anyway. and she felt weird about how long she lived after they took her off any support. but thats how cancer kills #it stops an organ from functioning and most of those r important so it only takes one. so her heart kept beating for 12 more hrs bc it was #meant to beat for 40 more years. but not much it could do without working kidneys and without working blood #but that's life. that's death. that's nature. its all nutral even if it feels horrible to the individual.#i dunno. i thought it was interesting. shes 25 and her mother had cancer for 10 years so id think shed kno more #we're at a weird phase now bc its been a week since she died and everything feels normal. we'll see what happens at the wake this week #its been interesting for sure bc she was sick for 10 years but my parents didnt prepare at all for her to die #so my dad is scrambling to put together the pieces shr left behind to make sure that all the bills r paid and whatnot. he had to guess her #computer password. she didnt tell us what she wanted us to have. she didnt tell us the importance of her jewelry and who it belonged to #before her. i dunno. we're seeing the outline of my mothers Pathology in what she left behind. both in the physical objects and in the #feelings she imparted. i dunno. its been weird #unrelated

sorry im just thinking about bcs but like. why not add a few smaller scenes of gus interacting with his own men? why does it seem like, in comparison, mike is almost immediately elevated to a higher status than those two in bcs purely because we actually get to see him having normal conversations with gus? like i understand they might not keep the plot moving as well because of the fact obviously if victor is currently doing something it’s because gus told him to etc. but for the most part all of the smaller interactions gus does have with those two ends up being in a somewhat high stress situation where it feels very tense between everyone. and it’s just like damn! is it always like that?? why do those two even care that much about their jobs if their boss is a bit of a dick? etc. i think even an additional scene or two with those guys (either alone or the both of them) talking with gus in a more normal situation could’ve both added a bit more depth into how gus treats his employees (we got a lot with how he treats lyle and co., but not a whole lot with the illegal side of things), how comfortable vic and tyrus feel around him in a calmer setting, and exactly why they both feel the need to be as loyal as they are to the guy.

and also on the other side of this i don't think it'd hurt to maybe elaborate on their pay just a bit..? i'm not saying to randomly put a number out into the atmosphere but i just mean some smaller things like. do they buy nicer things for themselves? what's their housing situation? what's their car situation? are the escalade / yukon their own vehicles or does gus just use those two for business situations? do they use them when they're doing their own stuff off the clock or do they have their own cars? etc. that can also help with understanding their motivations a bit. don't get me wrong i don't think they should be visibly rich or something because that's not what gus would want but just smaller things! cause it's easy to write their loyalty off as Well they probably get paid super well, which i'm sure is true, but if they don't show a single hint of that then what's the point. even something as simple as giving tyrus a nice watch, or maybe victor having a nicer looking gun, etc. something small like that. because as it stands right now the average 41 year old viewer who watched the show once only knows and will only ever know victor and tyrus as those two guys in the background who do random stuff for gus with no clear motivation. just the personification of "On it boss (salute emoji)". and to be honest this is true for a whole lot of fans who do watch the show multiple times and enjoy thinking about it more in depth, because on screen we barely have anything about the two.

and to be clear i'm not trying to say we should have an episode just for them or something like no i understand they're side characters. i understand we don't need all that. and i understand this is also primarily Jimmy's show. but it's not like these two are on the same level as like, arlo or paige and kevin etc. these guys have been around since brba. victor was literally introduced in the same episode gus was. and they are a huge part of gus's story, especially in brba. s4 wouldn't have been what it was without victor and tyrus. and in bcs, ignacio's situation wouldn't have been the same if it weren't for victor and tyrus as well. and i just personally believe that if their goal with gus in bcs was to go back and elaborate on how everything came to be and show what he was like a few years younger, they could've dragged victor and tyrus into that. and i think his character would've benefited from taking that extra step with those two.

#gray.txt #and you know. obviously i personally have my own clear ideas of everything. and i'm content with what i got. this isn't coming from a place #of Well victor is my favorite guy so everything should be about him LOL. i know what he is.#but thats only because i spent like what? 2 years now watching random interviews and analyzing the smallest details within the show that #genuinely meant nothing while they were writing the scripts. and then throwing some random ideas at the wall to see if they stick.#and i just dont think everybody should have to do that LOL. and i think gus's character gets a lot more interesting #when do you do have this clear idea of victor and tyrus in your head and how he interacts with them. but 99% of people dont have that!#nobody fucking knows everything giancarlo and vince ever said about box cutter. nobody knows about the interview where giancarlo referred t #his entire business (meth and restaurant) as his 'family'. and they'd never think of that in those terms #because with the exception of his restaurant workers and mike #it feels like he HATES them LMAO.#tldr all i'm saying is i think we could've benefited from at least one 1 minute long scene of victor and gus exchanging words #where it doesn't end in gus snapping the phone in half out of anger. and also let tyrus speak his mind and have gus agree with him once #also yeah sorry this is all over the place but it is somehow the most coherent i have felt in months so this is as good as its getting sorr #sorry .#also to be clear about my earlier statement that’s a lie my idea of those two is not clear in my head whatsoever i just meant in comparison #to literally the average viewer. and my own personal thoughts about them aren’t even true it’s just opinions and guesses.#and i love a character that i can just say shit about but at the same time i think it’s fun to have idk something in the source material #that you can actually use while thinking and not have to dig around 11 year old reddit AMAs #and that money paragraph sort of came out of order what i meant by saying all that is like #i feel those two could benefit from a clear motivation for why they do all the things they do #and if we have neither personal reasons nor monetary reasons then it just makes them feel like one dimensional henchmen or something #came out of no where* not order you dumb fuck (< me)#also it doesn’t have to be clear in our faces or anything whatever you know what i’m saying . this is too long i can’t keep elaborating

something that frustrated me and lok is that kya and bumi, when talking with tenzin made it seem like aang didnt want to share his culture with either of them

like, i can believe the favoritism, unfortunately i know first hand that parents can be super obvious about it, but i just don't believe that aang wouldn't want to share his NEARLY EXTINCT culture with ALL his kids! like yeah they couldn't do ALL of it bc they werent airbenders, but they had air nomad blood and i think that would MEAN something to aang

like idk, i think the favoritism resentment could have been written better, i believe in it, but it felt less believable than it could have been idk

#what also would have been believable is if tenzin was like *well MOM liked you best kya!*#just cause like well obviously bending is a sacred part of culture that others are barred from #but OBVIOUSLY not everyone in a culture isnt a bender #i dont think the air nomads were throwing non-bending babies off the mountains yknow???#and at least in atla bending felt like kinda special #like bending wasnt SUPER common #tho maybe thats just my own understanding and i dont think its based on any canon evidence #but to me its like a 25/75 split #so many ppl in the earth kingdom werent benders but like they were still participating in the earth kingdom culture #(also????? bending can be LEARNED right?? oma and shu learned bending #toph says that the badgemoles taught her earth bending but was that like as in she had the ability or they TAUGHT it to her???)#anyway i just the way they handled culture in korra was a lil clumsy anyway considering that identity was a huge theme of the show #AND the comics for that matter #oh whale #conspiracy lvl: text
