Welp. Things get weird with the anesthesia department from time to time. Today a patient, left unsupervised for 5 whole minutes in their surgical ward, chewed their central line out...

primal fear thoughts

the thing about primal fear is it sets itself up for so much moral ambiguity... but in the last scene, the line about killing Laura — it takes it all away. Okay, Roy, Aaron whatever, is a gleeful murderer and murdered not just the priest (who deserved it) but his fellow victim. The moral ambiguity is lost to stick it to Vail.

Which is like, I guess that works. But is it not more interesting to keep it on the note where: yes, he lied. Yes, he's not so innocent and perfect. Yes, he murdered the priest. But does that mean he deserves the death penalty that was set up for him? In the eyes of the law its wrong, but is that itself wrong? The fact that the discovery of his sexual abuse was a negative, something that condemned him rather than the reverend; is there not something wrong about that? Of course supposedly in those cases things should go through the proper channels, but as the movie itself illustrates, these men often face no consequences by the law.

I don't know. I find that more interesting. Especially as it would interweave with Vail's own sense of righteousness in representing his golden hearted sleazebags; they're sleazebags, but he proves them not to be, by getting them off in court as they deserve, right? He's able to just... make the moral and legal rights align. Isn't that nice. And he did here too, but not knowingly, and the legal right is false. Does he still believe in innocence when it's not legally ordained, even when the corruption and flaws of the system are what pushed him out of his job in the state office?

So idk, I find that a lot more worthwhile. If I do anything with Primal Fear you can assume I'm treating this as a version of the story where the Laura murder comment is in some way either not real or fake. Maybe Aaron says it to get Vail to fuck off. After all, he saw what happened the last time a man offered him so much for free. Etc. Don't think I mean to retcon Aaron being much more violent, abrasive, etc, either. I don't. But the pointless murder which only serves to stick it to Vail's savior complex but also dunk on his belief in goodness or whatever? Nah, I'll pass. I want a better story than that, and it set itself up for a damn good one. Even within the story presented to us... It's not completely offbase of an assumption, I think. There's no evidence he's telling the truth then any more than any other time he's bullshitted to Marty. Of course, you know due to author's intent that that's supposed to be true. But, well, I suppose it's death of the author.

Are OCs allowed, in regards to character-themed things?

Yeah, totally! If you have a faceclaim that's fine, otherwise I'd need a kind of description and themes

actually, as per my previous post, both giovanni and rick are the two sides of the same coin. they exist on a scale to each other. rick shades is more on the side of glitter pink teenage girl, while giovanni is more of the side of whatever the fuck makes preteen boys obsessed with flame decals. to me they are the same thing just slightly to the left, and coexist in the middle. they would paint each others nails at a sleepover.

EA is never concise with their statements, that's how they got people going around in a frenzy of confusion 🤦🏽‍♀️

If you see this post: https://www.tumblr.com/releasing-my-insanity/676087011520774144/maria-and-olivia-being-girlfriends-in-sesame making the rounds labeled as queer history or canonical lesbians, please know that I was never attempting to claim anything of the sort.

I made that post for Femslash February and referred to them as girlfriends because I was being a shipper. I ship Maria with Olivia, but also with Luis, David, and Linda and I make posts about all of those. I also ship Olivia with Luis, David, Linda, and Bob.

Maria and Olivia were never canonically shown to be attracted to women and both dated men. Maria even married Luis three seasons later.

There was never a same-gender couple on Sesame Street until two years ago when Nina’s brother and his husband visited.

I’m sorry my post caused confusion.

I feel like the only reason I send you asks is for this but. I listened to the whiterose podcast and you mentioned dirt poor robins! Anyways, I already had Great Vacation in my playlist but that got to listen to more of their songs so. Thanks for having good taste in music? Like. First burn the ballroom, and now dpr. So many good songs, I'm living

This is the best compliment I have ever fucking received THANK YOU FOR LISTENING??? SOBBING

“Good luck. And DON’T fuck it up.”

I must not respond to the bad take. Responding to the bad take is the mind-killer. Responding to the bad take is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face the bad take. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the bad take has gone there will be nothing. Only I (and my good takes) will remain.
