The story lines at the beginning of Sense8 for each character are honestly insane…
Nomi - trapped in the hospital against her will with a potential brain condition and her transphobic family
Riley - witnessed a drug robbery and then watches people get shot as she’s being tortured by previously robbed drug dealer
Capheus - trying to fight the local mafia so that he can afford AIDS drugs for his mom
Sun - being forced by her family to take the fall for her brothers illegal actions and sent to prison
Lito - hiding his gayness from the public because if they found out he would lose everything in his life
Kala - culturally pushed into a relationship she does not want to be in with an in-law family that does not respect her or her religion
Wolfgang - fighting against the criminals he was raised with and trying to show them he is better than them and the father that beat him
Will - is a cop

Since sense8 is trending, I would just like to point out that I'm pretty sure the very first step in developing the beloved characters we all know and love today was literally just the wachowskis pulling out a white board and going "how do we put together the queerest heist team of all time?"
Seriously, look:
Getaway Driver: Capheus
Martial artist: Sun
Hacker: Nomi
Grifter: Lito
Hitter, Law Enforcement: Will
Hitter, Criminal With A Heart of Gold: Wolfgang
Chemicals/Demolitions: Kala
Translator/Infiltrator Who Knows Everyone In A Situation: Riley
Mastermind: They're Literally All Sharing The One Brain Cell
(Bonus:
Optimistic Newbie With Stubborn Streak: Amanita
Funding/Moneybags: Rajan
Plucky Best Friend/Lockpick: Felix
Veteran Hacker: Bug
Artsy Scholar/Love Interest: Hernando
Grifter/Criminal With A Heart of Gold pt. 2: Daniela
Love Interest, Defecting From Law Enforcement Addition: Mun)

Is the Sense8 fandom dead?
Otherwise, please answer a question I have been contemplating for years.

Things I wanted to see in Sense8
1. Riley overcoming her trauma and experience motherhood with Will
2. Kala Rajan and Wolfgang living their best lives in India
3. Will getting his job and life back
4. Lito’s debut in Hollywood
5. Why was he making heart eyes at Hernando? (Blake)
6. More of Dani, Lito and Hernando overall
7. Nomi and Amanita living in Paris
8. What happened to Nomi and the organization that gave her the key to disappear? Did they never bother her again?
9. Coppheaus being an honest politician
10. Sun cleaning her name, sending her brother to jail
11. Sun and Mun training together
12. Sun reunion with her friends from jail
13. What really happened to Raul? Was he lobotomized? If he was, why was he able to move around and destroy Angelica’s investigation?
14. Lito giving clausure to Raul’s father and the rest of Raul’s family
15. More about Angelica
16. The Lacuna and Bhoddie
17. Whisper’s claustro, who were they? My personal theory is that whispers started to experiment on them
18. Someone from the Claustro giving both to a new claustro
19. Raul’s story being published, exposing the BPO and everybody involved
So please please please Netflix go bankrupt so another streaming service can buy the rights of this amazing story and the Wachowski sisters can give us more season, ten at least

I just finished rewatching Sense8 and I had forgotten how MUCH I love this show, and honestly the bts at the end of the show with the song Rather Be by Clean Bandit and Jess Glynne it's just so perfect I have been listening to the song on loop for 20 mins now.
I am broken.
This is me right now

The Wachowski sisters are the best. THE BEST
They made Matrix (1999) when no one cared about giving space to LGBTQ+ representation. They pretty much sneaked in a trans allegory into mainstream cinema without tripping ANY wires! And it has made rounds in film circles, VFX circles, dude-bro film critic circles, Name It!
They were left alone for a decade and they came up with the Marvel that is Sense8. Now this script just takes off with the idea of finding an ephemeral connection with not just one but a crowd of other people across the globe without ever meeting them. Sounds like the trans experience to me.
Yk what else sounds like a trans experience? Having mothers and fathers and children and clusters with no barriers of sex and gender. 🤌 An unbreakable umbilical cord that binds me with my 'mother'? Bring it on. Being able to contact someone and reach out for help even if they are in a completely different socio-economic strata, brought up differently and have nothing in common with? BRING.IT.ON.MAMAA!
Cis-het sloths don't have anything on me 🌈. They don't understand 'community' like I do. They are stuck in their blood relations and friends but I don't have any. I make my family. Who is in that family is not always in my control but all of them have shared the same pain, ostracization and hate that I went through. THEY GET IT!
Anyways, Lana and Lilly Wachowski, my heart is with you. Manifesting that I get to work with you sometime.
