#There’s a fucking difference?!?!

There is not! In fact, the company that supplies the rides (Bertazzon) to the website mentioned (Island Carousel, Inc) uses both terms interchangeably own its own website

And, the spinny things on the playground can be called either merry-go-round or carousel, too. It largely depends on where (and when) you're from. English has two words for them because English grabs words from everywhere, not because there are actual differences. Historically, merry-go-round was the dominant term until the late 1970s. Many languages have only a single word for all of them.

Like I said: Big Unseen Discourse (which is now playing out in the notes on this post)

just saw this on the website of a company that manages carousels in malls

This is a Carousel because it revolves counter clockwise, whereas Merry Go Rounds revolve clockwise.

and that sure feels like the very edge of some Big Unseen Discourse

I was idly thinking about which Sinners (both before and after reveal) are the closest to Don Quixote, and that then got me thinking about Heathcliff and Don, and how in that Canto III scene, Dante speculates that, if it hadn't been Don Quixote who acted first, it probably would have been Heathcliff next.

And you have in Canto VII, Heathcliff praises Don's ideals of "justice, honor... and loyalty". And it defintely feels to me like he shares at least some of those ideas, he too hates it when the oppressed are mistreated and abused (like he was).

But I feel like one of the things that seperated him from Don was that same thing that prevented him from opening the door and speaking to Cathy, what Canto VI calls the [Courage to Approach], he lacks that when it comes to these scenes of injustice, but that's something he admires about Don Quixote, that she doesn't have that lack of courage and has the conviction to act where he and others maybe wouldn't.

I dunno, I just think that's neat!

some poor sucker at the bottom of the lake

lando norris/oscar piastri, 5k, rated E / sequel to pull out the incisor.

He’s already cleared a space on his shelves for the trophy, even though his replica won’t arrive for another few weeks. Pride of place, right in the centre so he can see it from every angle in the room. He wants Oscar to fuck him on his hands and knees in front of it so he can watch the distorted planes of their bodies and the shapes they make in its mirrored surfaces. He wants Oscar to come all over it and make him lick it off. He wants a lot of things.

there's also a playlist to go alongside it, if you fancy making yourself extra sad!
