ok actually i'm not done talking about this page
"I suppose that is what my mission is all about" when we're getting a view of a very normal family scene. Yes he's talking about peace but also this juxtaposition is purposeful because now his mission is all about watching his daughter dramatically whine on the floor next to their confused dog while his wife smiles at him and reassures him.

Pic context: Talking about the exy stadium at USC considering the fact that USC is a real school
I love how Nora just invents things in order to avoid complications with real-life things.
Like, using USC's football stadium as the exy stadium too would take a lot of work to figure out how that would be possible. Solution: invent a new stadium!
Having the characters play a real sport that already exists would mean looking into all the rules and regulations and history, etc, and there could be multiple elements of the sport that work against the plot of the story or complicate it in some way. Solution: invent a new sport!
I mean, it gives her full creative control over what happens in the story, and we as readers get to learn about a cool new thing without feeling the need to fact-check every element. Tbh, it makes so much sense to me.
Like, go off! Make stuff up! It's your world. We're just reading and enjoying and becoming obsessed with it!!!

Yesterday, after I complained to a fellow student that I need to watch something british again as my english accent is turning to shit, she was like:
"Oh, there is this Sherlock show. From the BBC. It's quite short and a bit old but still good."

Projecting my own teen experiences onto the kiddads bc I’m out of the house rn and I think it’s funny
Terry: took a parenting class in 12th grade and on the first night of his culminative assignment he ended up crying, naked wrapped in a towel, on the bathroom floor after the robot baby interrupted him pre-shower.
Lark: left for school in the morning then walked around for two blocks before heading back home, after his parents went to work. Snuck in through his bedroom window on more than one occasion, when either parent stayed home. Did this for a week straight.
Sparrow: got clocked as aspec before he even realized while out at a cafe during lunch with Rebecca, but she told him she didn’t mind because she’s good with her hands and can just think about him??
Grant: while on a date w/ his high school boyfriend at the fair, his boyfriend’s mother tracked him down just to argue with him. Grant attempted to slip away to offer some privacy but his boyfriend kept an iron grip on his hand, so he spent the next several minutes awkwardly turned away from the argument.
Nick: during an orthodontist appointment, was recommended to install metal springs because he kept forgetting to wear his elastics. Without even discussing it, Jodie gave the okay for the springs but the smallest size available were too big - therefore not installed - and Nick refused to speak to Jodie for the rest of the day.

Hey if you have children and then die, even if you get murdered, and you come back as a ghost to talk to your kids, you should say that you're proud of them
You can also tell them to kill your murderer but every conversation should start with "i love you, I'm proud of you" and then whatever else you want to say to them

Thinking about the Dubai appartment again because of this excellent post how magnolia trees are believed to be the earliest flowering plants known to us, existed even before bees did so they had to rely on beetles that fed on their pollen Something about this ancient tree that predates the natural world as we know it, endured the centuries to end up in that cold, barren home. Something about vampires not reproducing through classic human means but through blood and the act of feeding itself.

"guilt tripping the audience for behaving like an audience" has gotta be one of my least favorite theatrical tropes. like oh? we accepted the convention that people are acting out pretend scenarios and thus did not intervene when someone "did" something bad onstage? we paid less attention to a character that the narrative told us was unimportant? if we had rushed up on stage en masse to try to stop this event unfolding, the entire show would have fallen apart because you are actually actors following a script and audience intervention isn't scripted? and you want us to feel bad for interacting with the text as the text expects and teaches us to interact with it? no, fuck you, write better material

'do I only think these things feel like they may apply to me because they're so prevalent in my online social circles that I'm just subconsciously trying to fit in' -- guy who has never once felt that way about OCD, or being trans, or polyamory, or sexualizing cannibalism,
