me everyday of my life

also please feast your eyes on this absolute creature

he is perfect in every way...

[emiscringe]

Things I need answers to instead of sleeping

What was Ivan’s encounter with the neighbor? Why is he way more terrified of him than anyone? Why doesn’t he tell his own story in ep 3?

Aaron escaped, but where the hell is bro staying? I highly doubt anyone would take in a random child since he’s missing and they’d automatically call child protective services (considering Peterson in jail)

Speaking of which does Leslie and the rest of the bully gang in the season 2 teaser have any recollection of Peterson? I mean, they bullied him so they might as well, though I don’t see any sort of reaction to their past- also was Peterson just killing guys that bullied him as a kid? (Tried to kill Leslie, principal abanante, hell I’d even argue he tried the mayor with the stairs)

The coins. I need answers- they do appear if someone loses their life but why is that? Why would Leslie take a bribe in them? Do they perhaps grant multiple lives when you keep them in your possession? Good or bad luck, maybe?

What is abanante’s deal? She’s so extra and gives off weird vibes istg

Why aren’t Nicky’s parents ever involved and only get involved once Nicky yeets a fucking chair out the window??? Help?

Why is finch, well, herself?

WHAT YEAR IS IT- WE HAVE REFERENCES TO 2020S BUT IT DOESNT ALIGN WITH GAME CANON ITS KINDA BOTHERING ME

So, after watching the anime and reading the manga after seeing the live action I have a few issues with how they did the Arlong Park section (though it's still a super good adaptation overall). Some of them are bigger then others so I'll start with the smallest addition that bugged me even the first time I watched--Nami's chain.

First of all it just doesn't make sense, especially since they changed it so it was Nami who approached him on making maps and getting money for her village. Why would he chain her in a room to do the thing she already promised him to do? Also if he's afraid of her running away, why does he ever let her leave to steal money to buy the village at all?

It doesn't even make sense in manga cannon where he made her make maps for him, because she genuinely has no where to go and Arlong knows that. Arlong is no genius, but I think him using a chain on Nami makes him look stupid. The village people have already kicked her out, and in the LA even her sister hates her. Arlong knows she cares about the village because she's willing to risk her life to get the money to buy it from him. She can't run away because she knows he'll kill the villages in retribution, while she can't even really go home because everyone hates her for 'joining' his crew.

She essentially only has Arlong as a life line no matter how awful he is. He doesn't need to put a chain on her to keep her there because she needs him, both because she needs to buy back the village to save everyone, but also because when she returns to the Island Arlong Park is the only place she can go (especially in the LA where her sister hates her and wouldn't let her sleep in their old house).

The second reason it bothers me is because I can almost guarantee it was added because they worried the audience wouldn't understand just how bad Arlong was to her without him being more physically abusive. That or think the audience would criticize Nami for not leaving as a child. Plus it adds more angst to Nami's character--that was most likely why they changed it to her sister hating her as well.

The thing is I really don't think it was needed. Arlong was bad enough to Nami as it is. She was under constant psychological abuse due to Arlong holding the lives of the villagers over her head. Every injury she got because she was stealing money is his fault. Later during the Fishman Island Arc she has a flashback of the crew not feeding her. We have Arlong shoving her face into her desk because she purposely (or maybe accidentally) misdrew a map. He only started to treat her better as she grew up, but even then it was always clear he saw her as lesser and enjoyed mentally torturing her when he was given the opportunity.

Nami didn't need to be chained for her pain to be 'bad' enough. Her life was already terrible. She was already a victim of abuse, both physical and mental. The chain adds nothing and doesn't make sense in either the LA or the Manga's story.

Third, it does leave a sort of bad taste in my mouth that given the fish-men were coded more as black in the LA, that they had essentially a black coded character (played by a black actor) chaining up a white girl. It feels even worse when they added Arlong constantly talking about fish-men slavery--making it clear from the get go that's why he hates humans. That entire thing is it's own can of worms, but at least to me it does come across as kind of off-putting. When it adds nothing, and easily didn't have to be included it just makes it feel worse.

Blood.It splatter everywhere.On the wall and floorboard.There stood a figure.Hard as rock.Looking down at the prey he shoot.Tear rolling down.Smoke coming out from the gun he use to shoot him.Shoot him till dead.His mouth hung open but he close it real fast.The dead body laying on the ground that was once a boy that was full of curiosity.The boy with brown hair laying on the ground as the red puddle start forming around his head.His leg got trapped in the beartrap leaving a chance for his hunter to shoot him.Right into his head.Headshot.Mr.Peterson eyes was full with terror and guilt.This is the third time someone die.Because of him.He didn't do it because he wanted to but there was this little voice in the back of his head,forcing him to do it.And he did.He remember looking right into that brown haired boy face.While holding the gun aiming it to his head.The boy brown eyes clearly show a sign of fear and scared.He plead for his life.The man with green toxic eye,smile before pulling the trigger.Nicky has no where to run.He finally accepted his fate.Death.BAM.The boy fell to the ground with a loud thump.And that when Mr.Peterson snap out of it.He didn't do it.He was possessed by the voice in his head.Clearly the young boy was smiling in his death.His didnt even scream.Just cry.A silent one.He drop the gun and lifted the young boy.Holding the boy as if he was still a kid.The blood dripping on his black latex gloves but he didn't care anymore.That when he realized,that beat.His heart beat.That young boy is still alive but it a slow beat.He could die anytime now.Without wasting any minutes,Mr.Peterson grab the medkit box from under the coffe table and wrapped a bandage around Nicky head.It didn't a long time for that bandage to be soaked with blood.He let the boy lay on the sofa.He wanted to call ambulance but what if that nurse ask him about how does this happen?The gun on the floor?The know it would be him right away.But he didnt want that boy to die either.He made a choices.And that choice is to get help.He quickly grab the cellphone and dail 911.A male voice quickly answer the call.The man then start to tell everything to the operater.He eventually feel like this isnt the right choice but then he remember about the young boy on the sofa.He was suffering.He was fighting between life and death.He need help.Putting down the cellphone as the operator told him that the police and the ambulance will be on their way.He walk over the young boy.The feeling of guilt took over his mind.He heard the siren of the police cars outside.Ready to send him to jail.Maybe to the afterlife.He didn't even tried to hide the evidence of him trying to kill the young boy.The gun,the blood.He didn't even try to hide it.No even an inch.After all,he deserve it.He hope that the young boy will live a happy life after this.If he even alive...

Ok gotta talk about it.

As a Jewish historian, I fucking hate Israel in ways most probably will never be able to comprehend. I'm going to try and explain it anyways. The central creation myth of Israel is that it is Jewish, and then consequently, that Israel is a part of Jewishness. Its easy to simply state this is false, but fully comprehending this and putting it into practice in thought and deed seems rare to me.

The evil at the heart of this violence predates the recent acceleration of genocide. Israel is a colony, and more than that, an antisemitic fraud itself. After WW2, when Israel was being founded, the Jews of Europe generally did not wave goodbye to their neighbors and head to the promised land. Many were expelled from their homes. Zionism itself, as an action, was a false choice at the time. A mere excuse to place an ally in the middle east, and an excuse to complete the expulsion and destruction of the European Jew. The Zionist Jew is more than complicit in this, they actively seek the destruction and assimilation of all other Jews.

Many fail to realize, and largely because of Israel, that Jews are not inherently white, Ashkenazi, European-descended people. Our faith and culture has an immense variety that is spread all across the globe. Jewishness, in population and volume of culture, exists more so outside of Israel than within it. Israel is for a very specific kind of Jew. The kind that lets Yiddish die, that attaches themselves to European things, that makes themselves and their practices as white as possible.

And they have the nerve, the fucking belligerent GALL, to frame themselves as the necessary saviors of our people. To the Zionist, questioning Israel is to question Jewishness itself. They bake adoration for the colonial machine into their very prayers, and push them on us even as children. To *not* oppress, to *not* kill, to *not* genocide, is to invite death. This is the core of fascistic thought, of course. "Kill them before they kill us." And they KNOW this too, they really do. The truth of that irony does not matter, because as is true for all fascists, the truth itself does not matter to them. They wanted this, they wanted this even before the British saw it in their best interest to give them the land. Any excuse to RETVRN, as the neo-nazis say of Rome, or the German Empire, or whatever the fuck stupid country they want to poorly animate the corpse of. Some select Zionists even *sided with the fucking Nazis* in agreement they should abandon Europe to colonize Palestine. (Haavara Agreement)

My people have proved time and time and time again you don't need a nation state to have an enduring culture. We have protected ourselves for thousands of years without the help of these spiteful, doom-saying maniacs. I was going to post something like this on Passover, but that would be hypocritical. The state of Israel doesn't actually have shit to do with Jewishness. שְׁמַע יִשְׂרָאֵל יְה Vi tsu derleb ikh im shoyn tsu bagrobn. [my best translation] Hear Israel (beginning of a prayer in Hebrew) I should outlive him long enough to bury him. (an old Yiddish curse)

Free Palestine. Donate what you can, they need it right now.
