#woe.begone is my biggest hobby... and my greatest fear.

[blotomical]

The day I started posting about #tw injury was the best day of my life.

Pour one out for #felix woe.begone.

i have such a fear in my heart that i am interpreting Stinky's arc and character incorrectly and projecting and i probably am but no one has any idea how happy i was when Stinky announced that his name was Stinky, to people he knew wouldn't recognise him, who would accept any name he gave! he could have been mike! mikey! whoever! contrast his audible grin as he shouts "did somebody say STINKY?!" to his resigned acceptance of the name Mike when Anne asks if he really wants to be called Stinky. Like, I dunno! I wasn't convinced he was comfortable with with that. a very cornered atmosphere to that exchange.

I just really love the trope of reclaiming otherisation. there's something compelling about weaponising other's underestimation of you. carving out a home outside the walls you were thrown from. and it is silly that his name is Stinky and he's literally 34 years old but so what? what is regular about any situation he is in? what does it even mean to be a mike walters in this universe, and does he even apply? why would he even want to cling to an identity that rejected him? i mean, mike walterses literally treated him TERRIBLY from the start. his personhood has been consistently denied. he has been denied agency at every turn.

stinky was a name forced upon him, another thing done to him. i understand why the idea of reclaiming it may make some people uncomfortable. but this is a show about identity and theres many angles to explore that, and I am fascinated by the concept of a person so limited by what they are able to control, that they decide to control how they feel about the situation instead. the species of mikes love to hold on to Names, to Things unique to Them. and i think, in the mess of it all, choosing to own "Stinky" was one of the few significant choices he got to make.

Mikey called him Stinky, and it was meant as an insult and also to place him beneath himself in the socially constructed iteration hierachy. But "Stinky" isn't a variation of "Mike Walters". Like Nobody, it is something else and new. Maybe he doesn't have to participate in a system that will always dehumanise and devalue his existence. It is freeing, in its own way, even if materially he is still in a Situation.

Stinky has to reclaim himself now, entirely. His agency and his body and his mind. His name is a start.
