one thing i noticed abt sinners that really stood out to me was that none of the juke joint group thought of sacrificing sammie. like it didn’t even enter their heads.

even when sammie tried to sacrifice himself after remmick promises to leave once he has him, smoke (fresh after his second encounter with the newly turned stack, his twin brother who he did everything for for their entire lives, telling him to join them) pulls him back inside. pearline grabs onto him. slim mouths off to stack.

now, i know what you’ll say- “oh, smoke’s sammie’s big cousin. annie wouldn’t have give any of them up, especially sammie. pearline was in love with sammie. of course, they wouldn’t give him up”. that, i get.

but what about grace and slim?

grace and slim, in the film’s context, had no reason to not give him up. grace was deeply worried and terrified over what would happen to lisa, still alone in the town while she was stuck in the juke joint till sunrise, and by all means, slim had no obligation to protect sammie, or protect anyone in the joint, really. he could’ve offered, even half-jokingly, half-fearfully, to give sammie to them, or tried to get sammie to give himself up, again. grace could’ve, as well.

but what happened, instead?

grace doesn’t breathe a word about sammie, doesn’t even suggest they take the offer, even when remmick basically says that if they give him sammie, they’ll all leave (she doesn’t know if that’s true, but she doesn’t know it’s not). she screams, she cries in her grief and rage, but she only dooms the juke once her desperation reaches a fever pitch, once it enters her mind that her- their- only option is to fight, and take all of the undead down with them. she’s consumed and burning, but she doesn’t turn it into sammie, even if it would’ve made sense for her to do so.

and slim? slim goes out of his way to protect sammie, to take him under his wing. he tells sammie that he doesn’t have to worry, that the devil (remmick, in this case) will “have to go through his old friend, delta slim”. slim chooses to stay behind to buy sammie- to buy all of them-, a chance to escape, knowing he wasn’t going to make it to sunrise. but he did it anyway.

and that? that’s community. that’s solidarity. that, even, is family.

Hey, if you did work over the past few weeks to try to stop the GOP's obscene and murderous budget: thanks. It ended up without the AI regulation ban, the trans healthcare ban, the western lands sell off, and without its stupid name being official.

It passing was a major loss for everyone in this country including the very wealthy and other people who believe they will be able to be better off from it.

But also, it passing was not as bad as it could have been and it took the ongoing effort of huge amounts of people to even make that a possibility, so if you were part of that, from the bottom of my heart: Thank you.

Maybe it's just me as a Filipino who has lived through a murderous dictatorship and oligarchies in a queerphobic country controlled by the rich who brutalize grassroots pro worker movements all under the military abuse of US imperialism but...

You just gotta keep showing up. Support each other. Don't just fight for yourself. The work is hard, but you just gotta keep doing it. You'll always see results, even if they're not always the ones you want, or as big as you want them to be.

All your work always matters. Even if it doesn't feel like it at first. It always matters.

Lookit them. I've said it before, but it's very very cool to see two dudes who are quite unafraid to express their love for each other.

one of my favorite things on tumblr is when you run across discourse from a fandom you're not in, and it's someone very angry ranting extensively about how the writers BETRAYED them by CLEARLY setting up a ship to become canon only to DROP THE ARC at the last minute in an OBVIOUS PIVOT, and without having ever seen one minute of the source material you know with total certainty that they're full of shit simply because if there had been any actual canon buildup of this ship you would have seen a gifset of it happening by now

TVTropes gets made fun of a lot but it is a little astonishing how consistent that wiki's voice is. It's a great wiki to go to if you want to simulate having one specific autistic fifteen-year-old computer nerd infodump to you about any piece of media that exists. To be clear I am saying this as an overwhelmingly positive thing

i like to think stede at some point has told ed about what happened with badminton, " and while it doesn't excuse what i did, or my mistakes, he did tell me i defile beautiful things, and i agreed with him at the time, i felt that was exactly what i did to you, and i thought you would be better off without me", "you think 'm beautiful?" "not the point i was trying to make but of course you are beautiful, dear heart"

In a language that contains words like devotion, passion, enthusiasm, love, fascination, obsession, etc., I can’t help but regret this tendency to cram all those meanings into "hyperfixation," a word which manages to pathologize and medicalize the act of having interests.

So. Um. This is going around on the butterfly app. I’m fine. Are you fine? I’m fine.

Remember that OFMD series 1 was advertised as a workplace comedy.

Izzy is introduced as stressed and overworked while his boss is indifferent and only gives orders. Izzy told a plan of what will happen and that there will be a promotion for him, but the plan is changed and Izzy loses his job so he seeks revenge in order to get the promotion.

I don't know a millennial or older GenZ who couldn't relate to Izzy as an employee.
