Me trying to explain to people that Jack Crawford does care for Will in some kind of way but heâs also so centered in his job that he doesnât prioritize Willâs mental or physical health over âsaving livesâ because he doesnât prioritize his own mental or physical health over âsaving lives.â

oh my god and thereâs also option four, which happens when you think yeah Iâm sick but not THAT sick (a round-about way of saying youâre not sick AKA option 2 in disguise) and you think youâre taking a lot of medication for someone whoâs faking their illness and wow what if you overdose or die from the medication. wouldnât that be stupid. and from here we either nosedive back into option 1 (âIâm going to dieâ), nosedive back into option 2 (refuse to take the medication because youâre convinced youâre not sick and you donât want to accidentally kill yourself), or miraculously get a grip and take the medication because youâre afraid youâre going to get worse if you donât, which will probably lead you back to option 3 anyway (âno one will believe meâ)
being sick when you have OCD is genuinely the worst because one side of your brain is screaming that you have some underlying disease that no one can see and youâre going to die while the other side of your brain insists that youâre lying to everyone and that youâre not sick at all even if youâve got a fever or youâre throwing up in the toilet bowl. and itâs just constant ping ponging between those two extremes
#okay this is the last one#but yeah thatâs pretty much the thought process over and over again#itâs so horrible but also kinda silly đ„Č#ocd#actually ocd#ghost speaks

oh and I forgot to mention the secret third option when you finally accept that yes, you are sick and no, you are not going to die⊠which is when youâre sure everyone else thinks youâre lying even if you know youâre telling the truth and thereâs no way theyâll ever believe you đ

#AND THEN YOU LAND BACK AT SQUARE ONE#my brain is hell#this is what going to hell is like#Iâve said this before and Iâll say it again: I wouldnât wish OCD on my worst enemy#ocd#actually ocd#ghost speaks

why has anyone bothered to write a kissing scene after annie proulx wrote this in 1997
#okay forgive me but I need to break this down#because the simple sentence (âJack took the stairs two and twoâ) followed by the sprawling complex sentence#which mixes a long list of verbs and reported speech#just beautifully represents the rush of coming together#how their implied speech is meshed with their hurried kissing#after spending so much time apart#especially since the simple sentence describes Jack coming two steps at a time#since simple/blunt sentence structures makes everything seem faster because it takes much less time to read#both the action and the sentence structure suggest speed#before plunging into the desperation of the following sentence#what makes this description so effective is that itâs less about the actual act of kissing#and more about the risk theyâre taking and the yearning#conveyed linguistically and grammatically#just !!! wow !!!#the reason a lot of intimate or erotic scenes donât usually work is because theyâre often too surface-level#as in describing whatâs literally happening and then running out of words AKA forced to use awkward synonyms#or they substitute the action for a flowery metaphor that also seems superficial (*cough* that scene in atonement *cough*)#but when the actual prose is layered and engineered by the writer to convey something pertinent#*chefâs kissssss*#anyway thatâs all to say that op is right <3#brokeback mountain

just read a stupid essay about the odyssey with the most ass take you can imagine but it was written in 1968 and the academic died in 2016 so no matter how loudly I scream, he cannot hear me
#why do so many academics lack inference#this is an actual phenomenon that needs to be studied#so many literary academics will make the most INSANE claims about a book without taking in the broader context of what theyâre analysing#my biggest pet peeve itâs like thatâs a cool take richard but is it supported by the actual text OR JUST SOME RANDOM SHIT#YOU DECIDED TO TAKE OUT OF CONTEXT AND PROJECT UNREALTED THEORIES ONTO#LIKE DID YOU READ THE BOOK ISTG#anyway this essay on the odyssey may be my final straw idk#academics will tell u homer was making commentary on the bourgeoisie when the bourgeoisie did not exist in his context#these same academics will then ââignore the actual status markers and symbols SPECFIC TO HOMERâS TIME#THAT ARE IN THE ODYSSEY#I didnât know homer had superhuman abilities to foresee the future and comment on the struggles of the proletariat#in a way that is specific to cultures that ARENâT ANCIENT GREEK#Iâve never been more enraged đ#this isnât even the whole reason why this essay pissed me off I just canât go into it rn đđđđ#the odyssey#ghost speaks

when I was a kid I wished I had nosebleeds. I had some friends who had them and I was like. that looks so fucking cool. you're just sitting there and suddenly you're covered in blood. it looks so dramatic. it looks so... and here my language failed me. at such a humble age I did not have the vocabulary to describe the sublime. I just sat in incomprehensible jealousy. I turned out totally normal by the way
#theyâre only aesthetically cool unfortunately#I used to get spontaneous nosebleeds#one time I got one in the middle of the night and lurched out of bed clutching my face#it was actually so dramatic there was blood on my floorboards#seeing yourself in the mirror like that itâs like a horror movie#but scrubbing your nose raw with tissues until it stops is SO annoying#another time I got one during an exam#I was so locked in while writing my essay and then suddenly thereâs blood all over the paper#still legible but yeah I had to hand in my paper like that đ#actual blood sweat and tears

would it be crazy if I said the way doctor who fans are hating on the 15th doctor is similar to how I hated on the 11th doctor back in 2010. for similar reasons too! my theory is that when the main writer changes people who acclimatised to showâs style/tone previously cannot adapt to both the doctor and the writing team changing at the same time
#itâs one thing for the main actor to change#because yeah thatâs doctor whoâs whole thing#thatâs the main gimmick#and itâs also one thing for the main writer to change#because yeah thatâs what happens with long-running series#but both? at the same time?#it just feels like a fundamentally different show#like whatâs the point of watching you know#unless you accept that itâs a different show I guess#but then you need to get hooked again and nostalgia is one hell of a monster#anyway Iâve seen people say 15 feels too millennial and not like a serious alien and Iâve always felt that way about 11 đ«Ł#the character was written like he needed to mirror pop culture at the time#which might be hard to see for newer or younger viewers? idk but I felt that strongly#and people are now saying that about 15 đ€#like maybe younger doctor who fans who arenât so used to moffatâs writing (and whoever wrote the 13th doctor) will like him#maybe itâs a cycle#cause doctor who has always been a little corny (I say this with A LOT of love and adoration in my heart btw)#anyway Iâve never been able to like 11 but Iâve been told Iâd probably like 12#doctor who#15th doctor#11th doctor#ghost speaks
