Mu Qing discourse will always irritate me because I find it odd to never afford the character who was a SERVANT (not an equal at point in their past) to Xie Lian some grace and understanding for his decisions. Claiming he sounds like a villain because ? He made some selfish choices? Even though he wasn’t the only one?

i just noticed that for some reason i don't remember joonas' middle name and i was trying to recall it by going through the all of blind channel's full names in my head
i don't know what happened when i got to olli because my brain just autofilled it so i said in my head: "olli elias kau- wait he's surname isn't kaunisvesi- i mean olli elias mattson"
i'm way too deep in this ollixallu shit
actually im just sleep deprived and my brain isn't working properly but i'm making it abou ollixallu shit again
no but the way Olli Elias Mattson sounds so cute?? 😭😭😂😂😭😂😭😂😂
I hope they'll take Matsson as their shared surname when they get married 🥰

also given that the logic of said superiority authoriority is an entitlement to deny someone's personhood & use them as an object for your purposes, from obviously getting to direct what they must do & can't do, to enjoying whatever gratification from lashing out / demeaning which is also going to serve as an affirming exercise in authority when one can do that from an insulated elevated place....a crucial part of whatever form of this violence, from the most nanoscopic triangle in the sierpiński triangle pyramid scheme hierarchy, to the hypothetical largest (zoom in or out to whatever degree: the same shit also), being that indeed the superior parties need the deserved insulation from any Consequence to exerting their superior status, including indeed from having to witness the consequences For the "inferior" parties, such as whatever externalizations of suffering they recognize as such, which either (a) need to be put away (b) are manipulative performances or otherwise exaggerated (e.g. being a pussy / not even having the sense to realize how little suffering they're Really experiencing) or (c) can be fun to witness if you decide you enjoy that as an affirmation of power as per your ability to completely detach from any avoidance of causing pain, harming for its own sake, b/c you Can
all which is to frame how Interesting it is that after all those moments of going "well, they keep bothering with reaction shots of winston noticeably feeling hurt & expressing it, sometimes also verbally. it's like it could be setting up something" it set up Nothing; while once again just like has been done dozens of times a scene just Ends on winston being rejected &/or hurt, no resolution then, no resolution ever, and in the case of 7x03 was so significant an attack that just like in 4x11 when mafee gets to take out his own Loyalty Insecurity on winston while everyone else hangs around in tacit to overt approval, everyone just leaves the room & we get winston staying behind in the Most distant position aaand scene's over! thread's over! david levien get back here after you Liked that 4x12 livetweet of mine pointing out "so see & winston was right anyways??" like....that is: we are given the Perspective of someone who is also now Leaving winston behind, thus immune to the consequences of however that treatment could actually affect him or how he might struggle to deal with that now (who cares! the answer is: Alone) like Whatever, next time we see him he's completely fine now. and i'm just so happening to think that all the little moments of getting to see winston wither & withdraw & etc in reaction to being shitted on was also us being granted the perspective of Gratification that he's punished for speaking or existing or whatever, without it ever going anywhere or mattering beyond that instant. we too are the ones who surely get to relentlessly bully the autistic person & damn if we don't at least enjoy someone getting to go off the rails restoring their ego by doing absolutely whatever they want to him, which just so happens to be perfectly aligned with getting him Back In Line. pull yourself together winston! the only consequences you're experiencing we wanna deal with are the ones where you give us the algorithm we decided we want, actually. and now let's look across the rest of the season where the consequences for wags for being this way (or anyone else for standing by, ready to benefit, with philip bafflingly declaring as well how actually it was brutal in a good way) is approximately fuckall even as of course nobody's pretending he's one of the personal growth guys out here: rian is though, and didn't have to "grow" out of abusing winston or thinking that was fine & good or that of course she's inherently superior! and in the end we have more affection and interest for the Epic Asshole than their Cringe Targets

thinking about how the present is a distortion of the past. we don’t know elured and elurin’s exact fates, though it’s likely they died in middle earth. if they died, we don’t know which they would have chosen --- the fate of man, or of elf. elwing, though, survived when they didn’t and escaped to valinor, where she is immortal and made her choice.
we don’t know elladan and elrohir’s fates, though we know they’re likely alive, not dead, and were last in middle earth. we don’t know which fate they chose. arwen didn’t leave middle earth like elwing did, but she did die before her brothers and she very clearly chose her fate, as a mortal.

nvm i just read the wiki lmao i just,, i love wrestling but brain cant focus on it rn to fully watch and enjoy,, if imma be ‘’liveblogging’’ I wanna be in the moment ya know so Imma just continue with what I was saying now that I found it out,,
-------------------------
BUT... Daniel wanting to prove himself, I KNEW that was in the storyline, I thought I was maybe gonna be makin that part up but like,, Daniel wanting to prove himself and determined to not be the ‘weak link’ I have just but a few things to say here
...Didn’t X-Pac do something similar? To Daniel here? Didn’t he wanna ‘prove’ himself? And practically pushed Kane away so he could do so? Determined to not let people think just bc Kane’s on his side doesn’t mean he needs him to actually win n shit like that?
Because listen,, I know these fuckers- its not like I haven’t fixated on wrestling since my childhood VFJBGFCKFLHGJFD- so im v e r y confident I remember X-Pac doing the same thing,, so I swear to god- in many ways him and Daniel arent,, t h a t similar but in terms of wanting to prove themselves and basically kinda telling Kane to ‘stay back’ and away from the ring, just, the fact it lines up so goddamn perfectly
It’s giving REALLY a n g s t y hours here im not gonna lie, also I love the lil correlation going on there, but god d a m n the angst that could come from that its just,, its r a d i a t i n g rn like oh Idk, for starters... Daniel saying how he wants to prove himself, that he doesnt need Kane’s defense and wants him to stay put, now,, wouldn’t that remind the big man of a certain... Familiar f a c e...? Wouldn’t that remind him of... A former f r i e n d even? :)
