I've been rereading Dune while also rereading some greek tragedies, specifically Oedipus Rex by Sophocles.

I don't know if I just have Dune brainrott, but Paul is so Oedipus coded???

Both of them rulers haunted by prophecy and fate since birth. Desperately trying to prevent the horrible future they have forseseen/been foretold from happening. But it all still came to pass, no matter how hard they tried??? Just the self-fulfilling prophecy of it all.

I'm just looking at the way Oedipus is described prior and after his downfall, and it fits Paul so well.

— Dune messiah spoilers —

Also, the way both of their stories end?

Oedipus gouging out his eyes with the broaches of his dead mother/wife vs. Paul knowingly allowing the plot to go through, resulting in his eyes being burned out ???

Blinding themselves after they realise the futility of all their desperate attempts to go against their preordained fate??? Realising that in a way they themselves have become responsible for it???

Doing it as a sort of repentance for their sins???

After they leave blind and broken into exile. The only person who keeps believing in them being their sister/daughter???

(I know Alia isn't literally Paul's daughter, but he absolutely took on a paternal role for her and took on the emotional role of a spouse for Jessica)

And after they are gone, both their legacies are forever tainted by their actions???

Can anyone recommend a good brand of grippy sock/tight slipper? No; not for that reason. I’m kinda eh mentally but not necessarily in crisis (yet)…

The fake hardwood floors in this apartment are literal sensory hell to walk on. I can’t take my socks off and walk barefoot on them for two seconds without getting the worst fucking joint cramps in my hands and feet I’ve ever felt in my life. It’s like insta-gout, just add naked toes; but I don’t actually have gout (thank god)… it’s SOLELY from the texture of the floor. I’ve been wearing the same vampire bat socks for four days because I can’t bear to remove them unless my feet have been soaked in hot water before.

Also, the vampire bat socks for your amusement because the little guy is cute:

i've been cleaning all day and scrubbing black mold off my bedroom walls and my asthma is killing me, but my god, psychologically this is amazing. i haven't deep-cleaned my room for literally years and i've just been cleaning constantly for the past week? buying new replacement furniture, dealing with stacks of unread science journals, clearing out cabinets that haven't been touched for 5+ years... i'm really determined to make everything feel 'fresh' and 'different', like a new start? i started this to distract myself from a very stressful situation but it's honestly really helping my mental health more generally, i think.

I am under no obligation to continually update my post about the alternate Spiderverse cuts. Hell, I could've just left it at the original and let all the reblogs be consistent and the same. But nooooooooooooo I just HAD to keep people up to date with every single little detail of this fucking movie

What people don't realise is that I actually am too much to handle because tell me why I got so upset after I burnt food in a pan because I forgot I was cooking and then cried when I couldn't find the scrubby thing to clean and had to use a different method to clean it 💀💀💀
