I just really wanna talk about eggs in Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
SPOILERS for Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes below.
Ok, so ya know how in the beginning Noa has to find an egg of his own for his hunting ceremony the next day?
But unfortunately, as Mae tries to escape, she shoves against him and she breaks his egg?
Spoiler images below. You have been warned!
Eggs have a lot of symbolic meanings. They often represent life, fertility, and rebirth.
Broken eggs can also have different meanings, both good and bad. It can be considered a bad omen. A loss of life.
But they can also mean a sign of change and new beginnings. Noa's broken egg is the reason why he goes out in the middle of the night, which leads to him finding Proximus' apes, which leads to them finding his horse, which then leads the apes to Noa's village.
A broken egg can also symbolize a transformation and breaking out of one's shell. Think of a baby chick breaking out of its egg for the first time and transforming into something new.
Oh, and do you guys know what Lightning calls Noa?
"Welcome home, baby bird."
And I think it's interesting that it's Mae who breaks his egg. She is the start of his change. She shattered the protective shell around him and his world, and yeah, it sucks and it brings a lot of pain, but this breaking of his shell means the ending of one chapter of his life and the start of a new one. Their paths are intertwined and they will be each other's catalysts.

Eddie goes on a date with Shannon’s look alike. He picks Chris up from Buck’s later in the night, Buck asks him how it was and Eddie can’t help the clipped “fine” that comes out of his mouth. He ignores Buck’s strange look and takes Chris home. He gets a text from Marisol confirming their date tomorrow. He texts her back “of course we are still on, why wouldn’t we be?”. “Just checking,” she replies. Chris asks him if he’s okay, Eddie says of course he is. His son shouldn’t be worrying about his father.
He goes out with not-Shannon again. He reminds himself her name is Kim but he can’t find it in him to say it. He goes out with Marisol, smiles when she asks why he seems distracted and says nothing he’s fine. He apologises for why the word fine comes out so harshly. She doesn’t ask again.
Cap asks him if he’s resolved the situation with the ex-nun. “Why does everyone keep asking, it’s fine!” Eddie says. Cap looks at him softly, and tells him he’s here if he needs to talk.
Abuela’s been in town since the wedding, Eddie has dinner with her. He brings Marisol and Chris. Abuelas gaze flicks between his and Marisol’s throughout the night and eddie struggles not to squirm under her gaze. She always saw right through him. When she asks if everything is okay he tells her he doesn’t know, it’s the most honest he’s been. He thinks that’s a good sign.
And then Bobby is in hospital saving the life of someone from his past saying it was good to reconcile with those feelings he still had from his life before and Eddie struggles not to relate that to himself. And then it’s Chris’s birthday and he’s too old and when did he grow up so fast and how come Shannon’s missing this? He goes out with not-Shannon the next night. Tells her all about Chris’s party. She asks when she can meet him. He has to think of jello to calm himself down. His parents come in the weekend, they say it’s not everyday their grandson becomes a teenager. They question every damn decision he makes from letting Chris have an extra slice of birthday cake to whether or not Marisol is right for him. He thought they’d like her. He chose her for them. He chose her for them. He yells at his parents to get out of his house. Yells at Buck who’s just there for Christopher, too. He breaks up with Marisol the next day and she cries and says it came out of nowhere. He tells her about Kim. He can finally say her name. He stops talking to Kim then. He goes to Bobby and he cries and he asks out he did it. How he moved on from them. Bobby tells him that he could never replace them, that he didn’t need to because theyd always be in his heart. That having a new family doesn’t replace the one he lost and that’s the point.

I think almost everyone has collectively agreed that Miguel O’Hara is an ass man and because of that just imagine how he would react seeing (Y/N) in those tiktok leggings that make your ass look like it’s double cheeked up on a Thursday afternoon.
He would absolutely lose his fucking mind

Holy fuck, man. What a trip Fearne has been on, huh?
You tell her how grateful you are to have her in your life, you flatter her, you tell her you need her, that you have to do this together. You have her make a promise that has this woman, born of chaos and fey, agreeing through shaking hands and a trembling voice.
You make her deceive your friends; you make her follow where they cannot know; you make her help you into this contraption; you make her feed this thing into you despite the fact that you both have been warned extensively of the risks. You make her watch you crumble and splinter and shatter and fracture and burst and implode. You make her watch you die, over and over and over and over, for a minute in agonizing bullet time.
You make her do all these things, because when she tries to back out, when she tries to not be the one who let you do this—how could you do this—
you tell her, "YOU PROMISED."
Because if there's one thing you know, it's that the fey do not break a promise.

Do you still draw YB content? What do you think of day 4?
yeah I still draw yb, majority of my stuff is yb rn. I just mainly draw a human version of him
I'm not a patron to the creators (I don't fw them) so I can't play the game and have to go off of videos and spoilers, so here's my thoughts so far (SPOILERS OFC):
- love the point and click style they're going for, I enjoy those games a lot so I am biased
- I'm a fan of Peter letting yn walk around and explore things at their own pace. when I'm in a new home or a friend's place, I often need to be left alone to allow myself to settle in and tend to feel smothered if someone's always over my shoulder when exploring etc (it also reminds me of when I got my cats and left them to wonder around on their own)
- what the fuck are windows 🙏🙏🙏
- apparently you both sleep together if you do the kind route??? WHAT WHY. I HATE THAT. PETER IS REALLY OUT OF CHARACTER FOR THAT 💀💀💀 I always thought of him as the type of guy to want his first time to be special tf was that?? (I'm also asexual so obv I'm not exactly looking forward to that type of stuff)
- I find it cute when Peter's working, autism be damned my boy can type!!!
- it's also super cute he gave us the bigger room and kept the small room for himself. also are all the stuff in our room stolen from us or did he buy the same/similar stuff?
- I love Rat, hope she gets more love and attention going on in the game 🙏🙏🙏
- also apparently you get to vaguely see files of pictures he took of you and he refuses to show it to you for some reason? or maybe that's not day 4? idek I hate that, Peter would show it off if anything
- the end of day 4, abusive route, I kinda like that? it's very interesting to me, how he'd do all that. I hate that he make yn nude but what the fuck am I supposed to do about it 🗿
Conclusion: lot of things to love, the writing is still something I'm not a fan of though
