The Last Diner is finally finished! https://open.spotify.com/show/0eBrGtQUiuP16Ropg0bHtg?si=1f4485e8156540b8

After an apocalyptic war, humanity has been decimated and fractured. However, there is one last stand, on a grassy hill in Canada- the Eye of the Storm Diner. Customers come in, get a warm meal to eat, and tell their stories.

The Last Diner is a mellow podcast about surviving despite the apocalypse going on around you. Each episode centers one story about a character’s life.

The Last Diner contains themes of war, death, and suicide. Please listen at your own discretion.

the passenger (2023) is such a crazy watch from a place of passive suicidal ideation because benson feels so firmly in that camp at the beginning especially on a second watch, like suicidality feels like such a driving force for him. from the moment he has randy in the car all i can see is someone who has had idle fantasies for so long about ending his own life finally seeing the end coming near and he’s fucking ecstatic. like yes! i’m finally gonna be done with this shit, AND i got to help someone on the way out! he’s found this purpose in ‘helping’ randy and he comes at it so manically because he’s just gotta get this shit done and then he can fuck off into a pine box and stop dragging out his wasted life!… but then sheppard happens. and ms. beard happens. and the cops show up. and that fantasy is ripped away, and all benson can do is laugh at what a fucking idiot he was, thinking he’d grow up to be fucking anything at all.

I wish we got Diego and Five in the timeline subway instead of Lila and Five. The deep desire for us getting the same premise but with a different execution.

Imagine Diego going and asking why Five can't blink only to end up in the subway with him. Five reluctantly, explaining everything he knows. Something Diego isn't fully comprehending but understands.

The silly idea of Diego coming up with the timeline travel and getting stuck in the subway with Five. The possibilities of their interactions.

The idea of Apocalypse Five shooting at them, causing Diego to ask who's that. "Me, of course, who else was in the apocalypses?!" Five responds, heading back down into the subway. Diego follows, "Well, sorrrry! I thought you had better aim than that!" Five shoots him a look.

The idea of when they realized they're trapped, we hear dialog. Diego shouting that this is EXACTLY what Five wanted. Klaus was right! He is a chaos junkie!

Five, throwing his hands up: I don't know why everyone says that! I'm not. This isn't what I wanted.

Diego: You appear in your element!

Five: Of course I do! This is all I know, Diego! I got stuck in an apocalypse at 13! 13! I was trapped for 45 years in it! Besides living in it, need I remind that I witnessed it again and again and again?! But that doesn't mean I want it!

Diego: Then what do you want? Because (mocking) Need I remind, you went off to join the CIA. You barely kept in contact for the past 6 years. You-

Five: I want peace! I want silence! I want to not worry about you idiots! I want... Forget it. Let's keep looking to get out of here.

How it finally pushes these two to talk. Their relationship has been rocky but there's always trust between them. Plus, Five doesn't really open up. So for the day to come where Diego once again pushes Fives buttons but the correct ones this time to get a

Five: I'm tired, ok? I have seen you all die again and again and again. I'm tired. I tried time traveling, I tried talking, I tried murder, I've tried, and it all keeps going to hell. There's only so much before it feels impossible or that I'm the problem. Sure, Viktor caused the first three apocalypse but not those after that. Not all this (refering to the subway). Only I could come here...

Diego, sighing after hearing all this for the first time: Yeah, you are a problem. A problematic piece of shit like the rest of us. And for holding all this in like a secret to take to the grave. But you're not to blame for everything. If anyone's to blame, it's Dad.

How they grow closer and Diego realizes just how tired Five is. He's exhausted and barely holding on. It doesn't help that no one in the family ever truly thanked him. So he does. Gives Five a genuine "Thanks by the way. For spending 45 years and some figuring out how to save us. I appreciate it. I like being alive." And how Five gets quiet as thats all he ever truly wanted. A thank you.

How Diego opens up about his relationship issues and how his rants turn into frustration about it all. Him voicing how he'd LOVE "bookclub" because FUCK MAN he needs a "bookclub" too! He'd be in full support! And he wished she was more vocal about things like he is instead of playing the guessing game. And how it turns into all the things he wants to do when he sees her again. Tell her everything. Open up. Hold her. Kiss her. Be in the same love he always really had for her. Fives there supporting him.

Five finds the journal and ponders it. Keeps the information hidden from Diego for a day or two before he's caught reading it. Diego's rightfully upset but Five brings up points.

Five: I was reading it. Making sure I understood what to do before we had a talk.

Diego: A talk? What is there to talk about?

Five: What if it went to shit out there and everyone's died? What if-

Diego: No, Five. There is no ifs here. We're going back and we're going to see how things are. Worst case scenario, we go back in time and save their lousy asses. Together. Best case scenario, we see our family again. I get to see Lila and my kids again.

Five: Right...

They go back and they find out that Luther and Lila ended up going to the CIA because "My husband always talks about this place, and my brother-in-law works here. So maybe there's information." And it makes Diego's hesrt flutter.

Just... what we could have had.

here be dragons

My nephew went to a sleep away camp and marched in some parade and now he’s a sailor. Something like that. I’m not going to pretend I understand how one goes about joining the navy.

I was right a couple months ago when I said the concerts in October would heal me. I’m running on not enough sleep and things at work aren’t ideal and [unnamed other things that I’m not super jazzed about], but I’m rolling with it. Tired, but good.

""Stealing the election""

I set my camera to shoot raw+jpeg for Griff last night and the processed raws turned out so much better than the jpegs and I hate it because I reallllly don’t want to get back into dealing with raws.

No book this week, but to follow up on Somewhere Beyond the Sea from the tags last week: it’s fine. If you loved The House in the Cerulean Sea, you’ll probably like Beyond the Sea. The dedication at the front of the book gave the story a very specific framing that made me think of terrible real world stuff whenever the villains joined the plot, instead of letting me stay in-world to interpret the allegory on my own terms, and I didn’t love that. (But that could just be a me thing.) It goes a little harder than it needs to on its key messages, but that’s the author’s prerogative, I suppose. Maybe not quite as whimsical as the first book, but the kids and their adventures get plenty of time, and I’m not mad that I read it. -1 star for my grievances and -½ star for some bad (but minor) production decisions on the audiobook.

the night is dark and cool and the breeze is kissing my face through the window of my friend's car and I know I will lose and suffer and be alone again, but for now, for now the world is so deliciously lovely, can't I just stay here a bit longer? just a few more minutes?
