AU where the Director didn't swap the sword and Bal got to be a knight

Todd: So what now? I'm just supposed to do anything Ballister does? I mean, what if he jumped off a cliff?

Ambrosius: If Ballister were to jump off a cliff, he would've done his due diligence regarding the height of the cliff, the depth of the water, and the angle of entry, so yes. If you see Ballister jump off a cliff, by all means, jump off a cliff

Todd: You jump off a cliff!

Ambrosius: Gladly, provided Ballister did first

It's crazy how Alice creates the most diverse but also relatable characters. There are characters of different sexual orientations, different races, genders, mental illnesses, family life and eating disorders. They're all so different??? but there's something that binds them all together. For example, I relate to Tao and his love for films but I also relate to Georgia with her loyalty to her friends, and I relate to Tori but I relate to Frances and her obsession to do well in school and not be a disappointment, but I relate to Lister but I... They're all different, but there's something so familiar about them and you can see similar traits in each of them in yourself. you're never just one character, but a perfect mix of a bunch of them. I feel like a collage or mosaic of my favourite characters. Not just the four of them, but all the characters, like Aled Last, Micheal Holden and Elle Argent.

Alice Oseman's characters radiate comfort and warmth. Her books give the same vibes as curling up in you're cozy messy bed after an exhausting day at school or work, buried under a mountain of blankets when it rains or snows outside. The months between September and February when the sun sets early and you get to wear extra layers of clothes like that oversized black hoodie to cover your face from the unfamiliar or jean jacket covered in fandom pins. Returning to your room filled with artifacts from your childhood, old middle-grade fantasy books you haven't touched in like four years but wouldn't sell or donate because they mean too much, book reports and DIY science projects from 3rd grade and that movie poster filled haven where you could leave the stresses of the real world behind.

All the lights are off, except for those fairy string lights above your bed. You're sipping a hot cup of tea or hot chocolate, rereading your old favourite books you loved as a teenager and watching that old favourite film that you've seen so many times that you can remember all the dialogue to, but you watch it anyway. Listening to that carefully curated 90s indie rock playlist from 2019 to drown out and forget the world outside. listening to artists like cavetown, girl in red, the 1975, Arctic monkeys, phoebe bridgers and the smiths. staying up wayyyy too late, the only light being the screen of your laptop or phone, reading fan fiction on AO3 while your whole family's asleep. That warmth and authenticity that you don't find much in modern media. The nostalgia. How she accurately portrays what actual teenagers are like, both the good and the bad. and every other feeling in between. confusion and the odd feelings of growing up, especially how characters like georgia and Nick never realized their sexualities until later (it can be nerve-wracking to figure something out), but also people who have known who they are since forever like frances and charlie. knowing yourself but also feeling like a complete stranger in your body. i don't know how, but even if you're reading it for the first time, @chronicintrovert books have the feeling of returning home.

I Have an Idea, hear me out

So both Britain and France have used Tactical Voting in the past week, yeah? What if we did something similar?

I absolutely hate Biden, but what if (share your thoughts, this is just me putting an idea on the table) we voted en mass for Biden, for the sake of keeping Trump out?

THEN (because we DO need ACTUAL change) we vote for candidates that support SOME/ALL of the issues we support. Then pick the candidate out of your choices that is most likely to win.

The only way to fight back is to organize. Not only that, but supporting candidates that support out core issues (ie, Palestine) and putting pressure on candidates that don't (contacting reps, calling officials, social media, etc).

If we combine these two ideas (Biden + Left leaning locals) we can use a similar strategy that Britain and France did. Keep in mind, the far-right party in France (actual self proclaimed nazis) we predicted to win, but the left and center collaborated, which kick the far-right party to the back.

It IS NOT ideal, but I think strategy is the number one priority this election.

PLUS, when talking about this to friends, remember that when you vote, you voting for (or against) an administration. Talk about the BIG PICTURE and what people have actually done, not just said.

If this idea seems shitty, again, turning up the heat is always an option. I live in a college town and they are already ready to go. Multiple Pro-Palestine displays were in town and there was a small protest on campus. turning up the heat is always an option.

We don't HAVE to be happy about this, but we still have to vote. of course, if Biden ends up stepping down and someone takes his place, the plan would change to support whoever that person is.

This is mostly me spitballing, so feel free to share your thoughts below or add on to the idea.

watching queer eye with my ma and thinking that jonathan van ness somehow looks like both a beautiful old west milk maid whom is coveted by the whole village not only for her looks but her golden heart and the corrupt lawmaker to whom she is forcefully betrothed by her uncaring father. god i wish that were me.
