Since Marvel decided to broke us all with Rhodey's story, I decided to ruin myself -and every single person who's reading this- even more.

Rhodey looked at the sky to see if Tony, with the Iron Man suit, was up there and if he was coming for him.

Toby Fox being worried about fans having a negative reception to characters he likes or finds funny (Spamton, Tenna, etc) feels a bit silly given how excellent he is at writing until you remember that a) even the best of writers still feel insecure about things and get anxiety and b) literally everything about the fandom reception to Alphys at launch

The Battle of Algiers (1967) dir. Gillo Pontecorvo

As someone who took French in high school and is currently taking French now and has also hated every single minute of every single class, I found it easy to be anti-French watching this film. Regardless of this film's ambiguity on whose side is the right side to be on! I will say, as much as I understand the lack of nuance in language learning classes, it is frustrating in some degree to sit there and learn about the colonization of African countries and various islands by the French through vocabulary centered around vacationing in these places and other such information. Yes, I can, as the French would say, planche à voile in French Polynesia and wow! People in Senegal speak French? Tell us why! I understand why we do not discuss these things, but the... childlike nature of the content and the way its taught feels awkward at times when discussing certain places. Especially during the chapter on politics and government... instead we were asked, "What do you think of terrorisme?"

(I feel like I am aligning myself too closely to that clip of Jaden Smith ((dear God)) on a podcast going, "Can we talk about the political and economic state of the world right now?")

On the topic of the Algerian War and this film, I did find it to be very interesting and very provoking. I understand why it was received in such a controversial and divisive manner. Not only was the time the film release situated at a sort of transitionary state for European countries as they were "steadily shedding their colonies,", but also this film's approach to sharing these perspectives was integral to its reception as a classic.

For one, I found the black and white very intriguing. I feel like the scenes with explosions become less about the spectacle of the explosion itself (because humans are not only horrified by explosions but entertained. We knew people were dying, but I am sure someone out there thought, "cool explosion!" and they're a little weird for that) and more about the bleakness of it.

The bombing scenes with the women is especially impactful. It is a truly horrible thing these women are doing, but again, it makes sense as to why they did it. Uprising and war is never not going to see the death of innocent people. But I think there is a very clear duality in this sequence that says, "Do you understand these women and how they're feeling? Do you empathize with these people, too?"

Once the first woman is handed her bag, a quick and drum-heavy song begins to play. It stops when she finds herself outside of the cafe, and begins again once she enters it. It stops again once she speaks to someone and a man offers her his seat, then resumes as she scans around, stops as she takes a drink and sets the bag down. As far as music goes, the off and on nature of this music is a way of pulling us back and forth between each perspective in the scene. The music belongs to her, and I believe the choice of drums mimics the low and method beat of the heart, but quickened to make us wonder how nervous or full of adrenaline she might be. When the music is off and the sounds of daily life shine through, it shows us that the people around are oblivious, enjoying their drinks, their ice cream, their conversations, and the company of others.

The scene cuts to a close shot of the second woman in the little dance club, the location of the next bomb...before the first one even goes off. Funky dance music plays, people are up and moving, and there is no methodical music to let us into what this second woman may be feeling. We do not know if her heart is beating out of her chest, if her palms might be sweating, or what. The sounds of every day life, and the multiple close shots of random people's faces give more of an appeal towards them.

The scene progresses, and once the first bomb begins its countdown, a higher pitched drum begins to tap, almost sounding like the type of drums that belong in war. My favorite part of this scene is when the camera very very quickly zooms in on the clock before showing the bomb blow up from the outside of the cafe. This shot is so quick. Before the blast, it's saying, "NOW!" and that indication before the actual blast is very interesting to me. The fact that the music alludes to a countdown at all, I think, places the viewer into an inactive participation.

One last thing that I would like to mention is the scenes of torture. It is not an unknown fact that governments use torture tactics all the time. The United States has allowed some horrible things to happen, I mean... look at Guantanamo Bay... but also, governments have limits to how far they can go and are also secretive about what they actually do.

That is why the reading mentioning that the real man behind the character of Col. Mathieu defended his torturous actions after sharing his experiences of a "largely secret history". To me, that is insane. For Pontecorvo to not only include the torture in the film but to film reenactments of it is extremely moving and deeply uncomfortable and a sad reminder that these things are a part of our human history and have been for thousands of years. They will continue to be. For Aussaresses to boast his horrible crimes against other human beings is nasty. For the reading to call him the, "degree zero of colonial oppression," is well put.

anyone else thinking about effie spending 24 years watching haymitch completely fall apart. effie, who met haymitch by accident, who knows exactly what kind of person he is, who sees him every year on his birthday for 24 years and each year he’s drunker, each year he’s angrier, each year he’s faster to give up. and then they get katniss and peeta. peeta, who is kind and open and understanding, who refuses to give up on haymitch. and katniss, who is so much like haymitch at 16 that it hurts. and over the few days they’re together, effie watches haymitch come back to life. watches him try. watches him have hope. and then they get to keep not one but both of those kids. they get to come home. and then, less then a year later, effie pulls haymitch’s name at the reaping.

Jason: Y'know, I was actually a ghost for a while before I was revived

Dick: *eye twitching* Is that so?

Jason: *smirking* Yeah.

Dick: That's so- interesting! I'll be right back! *slams the bathroom door in his face*

Dick, whisper screaming into his phone: LESLIE, I DON'T NEED THE ANTIPSYCHOTICS, I WASN'T HALLUCINATING JASON THAT WAS GENUINELY JUST HIS GHOST-

Jason, who only ever haunted Dick a couple days because he realized that Dick didn't seem to care about his death and thought Dick was only upset because Jason might've seen something embarrassing about him as a ghost: ?!?!?
