#by the time you are trading morphine for bullets and antibiotics with children hoping it will be enough to save another child who's dying

sorry disco elysium you will always be a queen in my heart but you made me want to get better, while pathologic gave me at least one mental illness ):

#pathologic is desperate and delirious #it's a crescendo of desperation and hysteria #by the time it's dark and you are harvesting human organs from a man you killed with your own hands in order to afford a loaf of bread #by then you are so deep in it you don't have the time to think just how fucked up it is #by the time you are trading morphine for bullets and antibiotics with children hoping it will be enough to save another child who's dying #by then you won't even care because you'll be too preoccupied hoping the antibiotics will be enough since life and death eventually depends #on a midnight roll #your choices are meaningless and in the long run doing the right thing will be a burden and doing the wrong thing also won't help at all #your final choice is about which kind of humanity has to be sacrificed: the ideal humanity (the living utopia) or the imperfect real #humanity (the town)? except it doesn't matter because one means death and the other means death too #but in the greatest picture it doesn't matter because there is no utopia no town no children no harvested human organs and there is no you #absolutely devastating #disco elysium isn't a walk in the park but is slightly less fucked up than this come on
