hey so you remember like. the scene when we first see 17th and he’s strung up in wires and dripping blood and twisted into a show of desperate repentance and then later we find out it was actually him? who did that to himself? yeah i agree it was pretty good. pretty good scene if i do say so myself. ha . Ha

Another random Kuvira headcanon. This one is a bit angsty:
Kuvira hates tea because her bio parents owned a tea farm. Every time she tries to drink it, it just brings back all the painful memories that she’d rather not think about. She can’t even stand the smell, and spirits forbid if anyone ever tries giving her jasmine tea, which is the kind her parents grew.

I seen through junkies
I been through it all
I seen religion
From Jesus to Paul
Don't let them fool you
With dope and cocaine
No one can harm you
Feel your own pain
I Found Out - John Lennon (1970)
It wasn't so bad if I knew what was happening
But my head was full of dope
Ah, fooled again by
A lot of cocaine I
Drifted home, but...
Solitude - John Lennon (1979?)
My delusional ramblings under the cut.
Am I insane for seeing some kind of connection here? Maybe not, but I am insane for connecting it to Paul. Hear me out, though.
I just.. think there's something to be said about the fact that he's talking about drugs in the sense of getting fooled (again) in both instances here, when he doesn't do that in any other of his songs that mention drugs. The I Found Out lyrics make the connection to Paul pretty clear-- immediately post-breakup he's renouncing him just as he is religion and drugs because he "found out" that any happiness they were giving him is ultimately fake/pointless, for whatever reason.
In Solitude he's obviously talking about The Lost Weekend and... I don't think it's a coincidence that it was during this period that he briefly reconnected with Paul. So I think that, whether consciously or not, Paul is being referenced in Solitude as having fooled John again.
Counterargument to myself: "Them" in I Found Out could just be referring to the junkies, not to religion and Paul, especially since in the original demo of I Found Out he doesn't talk about getting fooled at all and the "dope and cocaine" lyrics are entirely separate from the religion and Paul ones.
Counter to my counter: There's probably a reason why John chose to reframe it, since in the original the main point was to explicitly compare Paul to religion, while in the final version that part kind of takes a backseat to the whole not being fooled and feeling your own pain thing. I don't think John would go out of his way to not make his Paul complaint the main focus if not for some narrative reason, which I think in this case is in fact to implicate him as one of the things he was fooled by. And he has canonically blamed Paul for not allowing him to be vulnerable (lol), so I think it follows that if "feel your own pain" is in response to religion, Paul, and the junkies, then "don't let them fool you" is too.

i need to know if duncan got officially expelled or anything for the whole schism thing because ambrose just kinda says "damn. that sucks" and it gets left at that. i rotate post-schism duncan around in my head like a microwave so often, it burdens my psyche on a daily basis

my toxic trait is that i do believe that if they wanted to they would. and i keep reminding myself that it's about communicating or whatever but it's not about "oh i want them to buy me flowers and they need to read my mind ab it" it's like. hey. i think if this person wanted to talk to me regularly they probably would. i'm not super high maintenance in relationships. like i am but i don't act like it. i'm talking like three months of not having someone talk to me and yeah i get a little upset and pissed off. cause i don't give a fuck if you don't do this or that and i know that i have trouble communicating things i want/need and i acknowledge that but genuinely i have such a hard time believing that people wouldn't like. just genuinely fucking talk to me if they cared. anyway

We finished dragn ball!!!
oh boy, that was an emotional experience i never thought i'd wanna get through, much less enjoy as much as i do.
it's?? a good show??? like, i didn't expect to like it this much. it's actually really cool, with characters that are fun to watch.
it has a lot of problems, like how it feels like it can drag on too long, and the power scaling just gets worse over time, but it makes up for it with a lot of fun epic moments and memorable characters.
9/10 would watch again if it wasn't so long. which is why we have abridged. (which is also great, aside from some very outdated humor early on.)
