no thoughts, just "where is duty, where is sacrifice" and the way that alicent clings to abstract constructs like religion, honor, duty and sacrifice because her material life is so concretely terrible and empty. to have loved someone so dearly, and watch them be what you perceive as free while your entire personhood is reduced to a womb and made to serve the realm, a vessel for the rotting king to use and abuse. to not exist as a person for yourself but in only in service to others as you are ordered by your father under a patriarchal structure..........and then the contrast of that quote, which summarizes all of alicent's anguish and agony, to the classic, "what is honor compared to a woman's love? what is duty against the feel of a newborn son in your arms...we are only human, and the gods have fashioned us for love.".................but alicent doesn't have love, not anymore. duty, honor, these concepts - they're all she's got, and the lack of the very elements that make them meaningful has corroded her inside and out. so: honor, duty, sacrifice, all without love. and here we are.

Apolinario Mabini, Revolutionary, Cesar Adib Majul
he was so fucking funny for this
I had actually spent a long time recreating the interior of his house for that first panel before I remembered he was exiled in guam when this happened lmao. the other guy in this comic is his brother, prudencio, who accompanied him into exile!
speaking of houses, let's talk about his glasses. he had them, and I get emotional whenever I see photos of his personal belongings.....
photo taken from the NHCP Museo ni Apolinario Mabini
also the citation given in the screen cap!! I don't have access to Mabini's La Revolucion Filipina, but if you do and you want to read further: [8] 'Las memorias de Guam' La Revolucion Filipina, Volume II, p233

Saint Bernard by Lincoln has major house but religious trauma energy (it’s that or the house md brain worms are too strong) like come ON
“when I’m dead I won’t join their ranks, cause they are both holy and free, and I’m in Ohio satanic, chained up, until the end, that’s how it’ll be”
Holy and free: loved, not suffering all the time
satanic, CHAINED UP: unloveable, suffering and bound by his condition
“Saint Calvin told me not to worry about you, but he’s got his own things to deal with”
Just sounds kinda like something he would say idk how to describe it
“there’s really just one thing that we have in common, neither of us will be missed”
idk him running off with Wilson, saying they “won’t be missed” or thinking nobody would miss him if he did die bc well.
The songs really good btw
There’s more but I can’t be bothered to type it :>
This is that one Radiohead anon btw (feel free to make guesses on who I am)
Anyway byeeeee
okay im gonna guess first because makes me feel happier- this could be m?? only going off the purple.. do i know you well, mysterious raidohead anon. BUT PLEASE DROP MORE OF THESE THEY SLAPP 🙏
ive actually said something on my blog about that song and house md- i said someone needs to make an edit of house crashing into cuddys house with it so we're twinning so hard
BUT YES OH MY GOD??? THIS IS SO GOOD AKSBSK but i think he did have religious trauma,because i think john house was religious. and obviously house is a massive atheist so it would make sense obviously-
but thank you 🖥 anon, thats your name because of the raidohead album "ok computer". SO THANK YOU I LOVE THESE SM OMDSSS
