seeing in real time as people my age and older become wildly disillusioned with the state of the imperialist machine we're in is...i guess i'll say strange? not bc that's an inappropriate response, but because it feels a bit like talking to people who haven't, like. existed. for some 25-something years. even though they definitely have and these talking points aren't new. i've known for a long time that the political parties in this country are the same people in differently colored hats for a long time now and seeing people realize that for the first time is a mix of frustrating and relieving (in the sense that, like, ok are we finally on the same page yet?)
i don't say that with the implication that i'm better than anyone else, no one is Born with knowledge etc etc. its just weird. it feels strange. we're living in a repeat of history and people my age and older are acting like they are the first ones to ever feel this way or have these problems. one step forward two steps back kinda thing.

reread aurora comic again and it is nuts that octave and falst are just the same person. octave is just like if instead of finding a friend group falst met one nice boygirl who is like if a boy is a girl who is a boy in a dress and decided that actually this person is the ONLY good person, who they will fight and die for, and who they are completely borrowing a moral compass from, and to that end they will abandon the good person to endlessly undergo the trials and overthrow the government about it. because that's what the good person would want them to do. that's what makes them so good and worthy of their loyalty. they're doing this revolution for THEM. (that is not what the good person wants them to do. because the good person talks a big paragon game and does care about everyone but on a very real level is deeply selfish and just wants people to stay with them. but they will never admit this to octave or to anyone else. and they're completely mutually obsessed with each other even though they haven't seen each other since high school.)
and for those of you who know octave but not falst, falst is like if octave was a tough catboy who lived in the woods with no friends and then GOT friends and then was like I'm going to break the exact same number of bones that I usually break about it. and also has a WILD inferiority complex. like holy shit. "it's whatever I heal fast" kind of a guy. will you dumb assholes be tactical about this and let me get blown up for you?? no joke this guy thinks he is expendable in the way that octave thinks is laudable

Oh you know what I should probably clarify that um. While I adore Tiger Rock's design and keep saying he's mine now...
Roxy is still my number one blorbo. This hasn't changed. The art pieces I was thinking about when I was hit with that realisation from earlier? Yeah it was an art piece of her. Several, in fact. She is still the rotisserie blorbo of my brain lmao I'm just throwing the shiny new toy tiger around a bit until I go back to her fully, ya know?

love this system that is like "oh you work for 2 years while we barely pay you - it's not called a wage for a reason, duh - have you come to class and write an exam every week but in class - just for funsies - we won't actually teach you what you need to know for the exams but a lot of practical stuff which doesn't apply for your work because that is way more specialized"
glad i can skip the classes since i moved outside of town for this part. while i have to teach everything to myself, everyone in class is non the wiser and at least i don't lose the hours.

even though ellie is immune, we see in the mall that infected still attack her and we know that they will rip people apart in an attempt to spread. a vaccine wouldn’t kill the existing infected or stop them from attacking. ellie would never be able to make a decision without the fireflies manipulating her into thinking she was selfish and killing people and turning her against joel by making her think the same about him and maybe even that she’s just a replacement for sarah. not to mention they would just use a vaccine as the ultimate trading tool to topple fedra and become the new world leaders which is what they really want. they were going to kill a little girl without telling her she was going to die on the off chance her brain could produce a cure. joel did the right thing

If they let me write for one of these cute DC kids shows I would have a episode with Peacemaker and Vigilante and the plot would be the justice league gets separated somewhere with a communication blackout and half of them are with Adrian, who is telling them that Peacemaker is a unhinged maniac whos gonna murder a bunch of people, and the other half is with Peacemaker, who is telling them that Adrian is a unhinged maniac whos gonna murder a bunch of people. Obviously the episode would end with the reveal that they both have murder plans
