am I too late editing to this song?

I guess I don't really care 'cause I never see edits of cxg and this show is so good, it deserves more edits.

This show is everything to me

“I want someone to tell me what to wear every morning. I want someone to tell me what to eat. What to like, what to hate, what to rage about, what to listen to, what band to like, what to buy tickets for, what to joke about, what not to joke about. I want someone to tell me what to believe in, who to vote for, and who to love, and how to tell them. I just think I want someone to tell me how to live my life, Father, because so far I think I’ve been getting it wrong.”

Okay I love the new rwrb movie but it was kind of funny to me how much they toned it down. Like in the movie you have Alex gently tells Henry "we need to talk" when he confronts him, meanwhile, in the book:

i think popular media culture is poisoned in the following ways:

if you like something, people will make fun of you because you have admitted to experiencing a sincere emotion. this makes people defensive about what they like.

if you don’t like something, people will take your opinion personally and attack you. this makes people feel like they have to have a very good reason to dislike something.

people reach for reasons to like vs dislike things that are serious and often politically relevant so they can defend themselves from other opinion-havers.

these positions mutually reinforce each other until it is assumed that any declaration of liking or disliking something is both personally and politically relevant by default.

i am forced to look at this every time one of my fandom posts blows up.

the sun literally sets and casts a golden hue over everything every single day and we fucked it all up and invented paying rent

why did they have Alex make the speech before the whole palace situation? like the "we could deny everything and claim it's all fake" scene doesn't really make sense when Alex has already talked about it openly?
