no ok @funonion001 you've made me So fucking unwell over this it needs its own post
bc i also used to be like "ah, the neighborhood's a panopticon and Home is the 'warden'" but recent updates & general things ive read changed my outlook entirely. cause like... if Home (the town) was a panopticon, then Home (the house) should be at the 'head' of it all, where they can view everything. but Home can't view everything directly - half the buildings are behind it.
however. i don't think the panopticon thing is entirely wrong, either. there's some truth in it? i'm pretty sure that the neighborhood is Home. it's like Home is the brain/eyes/heart, and everything else are nerve endings. there's this one piece of livestream trivia that i think of, in relation to Housewarming: "...everyone believes their houses are alive in their own special way". what if this is kind of literal? all of the buildings are extensions of Home, or Home is just the core of it all. one big living, breathing neighborhood. Home might not be able to see it all, but he might be able to feel it
and then yeah from the more abstract side of things - your phrasing of "all the other houses circle home" made me put my head in my hands. because there Are a lot of conclusions/interpretations of all of that. also that sentence makes me picture a pack of wolves circling in on a kill, which is. hng.
Home is caged in. Home is surrounded. Home is always being watched. Home is never not alone. everything leads back Home. Home is holding it all together.
and like... it reminds me of Clown once mentioning (loosely, im going off of memory here whose reliability is tenuous on a good day) that part of WH's story relates to the autistic experience / when does a home become a house / will your neighbors treat you differently once they see the authentic you. and that, at least to me and one of my experiences, relates to a feeling of being watched/judged every time i leave my house. or even when i'm by an open window - everywhere i can be Seen, it feels like everyone is keeping one eye on me. existing in public spaces feels like a performance. i'm hyper aware of every single movement i make and it makes me feel so inauthentic and fake and alien and its So So stressful/uncomfortable.
so that pov + Home (and by extension, Wally since they're kinda one in the same) = well! all of the above! can Wally ever relax outside of Home's four walls? they're all looking at him. the entire neighborhood surrounds him - he can't go anywhere without running into them (the buildings and the neighbors). there's no escaping their watch and/or judgement. it's as if Wally and Home are under constant surveillance, or at least it feels like it - which is half the problem. or it's the entire problem? the fear of possibility, not reality.
and then for a different (but also connected for obvi reasons) interpretation - Home and Wally are alone. they are Singular in the neighborhood. everyone else is next to each other, even the stores are paired. but Home stands alone in the middle of it all. which directly relates to Wally and Home being aware - and also together in whatever state the neighborhood is in at the time of the whrp's creation. in a town of neighbors, Home & Wally have none. and that can connect them being at the center of it all, holding their world together - or breaking it apart
also: on the neighborhood map, the path only ends at Home. it's a loop except for the bit leading up to Home's doorstep. where Howdy's Place & Eddie's Post Office are the path widens into one huge circle with no end. Walk the circuit, end up at Home. walk the entire perimeter, and you go nowhere. there isn't a path out, the path doesn't end at any of the buildings except Home. there's something in that, i think.
there's more in my brain but i can't quite reach it...

Welcome to another instalment of Teds Hayley’s notebook!
In a funny/sad way almost all of Red Bulls PR ‘driver pairing’ content this year has had Daniel appear alongside Max and Checo. Which makes me 100% believe that either or both camps (logically Max) refuse to work together without a ‘buffer’ to drive the content to be positive/fun. Enter Daniel!
While you can’t deny the content has been top tier. You can clearly see even in edits that the ‘pairing’ of Max and Daniel shines through and casts a shadow over the actual driver lineup. Even making it look ‘third wheel’ like on Checo’s part. Showing how much value Daniel has towards the teams brand outside of ‘physically driving’.
Now I’m undeniably a Danny Ric girl for life but you gotta feel for Checo when he can see around him continually that he’s replaceable and the ‘replacement’ is standing alongside and waiting for his old seat to be returned!

Here's a work funny I should've shared yesterday with you all! It got me good, lmao.
We had a student come in to ask about Special Collections use in general as well as a specific collection we have on occult stuff, and they were like "Yeah my prof and I e-mailed because we weren't sure if Special Collections was like, a restricted section thing?? where you need special permission to access the materials otherwise alarms go off or something?"
Had me CACKLING tbh

Hello twitter refugees welcome to the party
Y’all should know I have a few side blogs
@madmeeper is my catch all, put everything there. There’s memes, there’s art, there’s fandom, and the occasional discourse post (tho I’m really not interested in circulating that too much). I’m particularly chatty in those tags sometimes and have a few specific tags that I make use of.
@tehareinspiration is my inspiration blog where I put art that I find particularly inspiring, photographs, occasionally history. It’s meticulously tagged, and I use it a lot for reference.
Most of the time this account here I just post my art and occasionally reblog friends art, but 90% of what occurs here is my stuff. Sit back n relax, I don’t really do shitposting on main.
I’ll make myself a pinned post ~eventually~ but I wanted to draw something for it and yaknow how that goes fjdhdg
