“Billions of people are about to die tonight. You can change that.”
“Tonight, tomorrow. So little difference in the scheme of things. Don’t you remember the Commission’s raison d'etre? What’s meant to be is meant to be, or, as I like to say, que será, será.”
“It’s bullsh*t in any language.”
This scene hurts my heart for so many reasons.
Five sees it all play out till the end not once, not twice, but THREE times and he shoves that trauma down every single minute in order to stop it all from happening.
Five’s best quality is how vehemently he lives to survive but it’s also his worst because he surfers the most unreservedly because of it. I love how he can be seen as a paragon of nihilism (why survive if nothing is worth it) but he ISN’T. The human ability to preserve and survive is intrinsic in us and the loss of that ability is a reversal of the human psyche which is why its so tragic when suicide or sled sacrifice occurs. Five is the reverse. He has every reason to give in to death but he DOESN’T and so his tragedy is everything he lives to see because of it. His tragedy is not that he loses the desire to live but that his desire to live brings him insurmountable pain.
I will never not say that Five is a BRILLIANT Tragic Hero and that Aidan portrays his facets so well. He has all the positive and negative characteristics of one as well as the plot and fatal flaw as well. It’s just astoundingly heartbreaking yet cathartic at the same time because it’s so relatable. Who wouldn’t go to all these lengths for family?

Some of my favourite recent protest signs

when e.e. cummings said “i’ll live my life if it kills me”
when andrea gibson said “i suppose i love this life, in spite of my clenched fist.” & when ellen bass said “to love life, to love it even when you have no stomach for it”
when james baldwin said, “this is why one must say yes to life and embrace it wherever it is found-and it is found in terrible places; nevertheless, there it is;”
when Mary Oliver said “it is a serious thing / just to be alive / on this fresh morning / in this broken world”

Children. Please. You need to know, that at first the camps in Germany were not for genocide. It all started with imprisoning political opposition. Communists, then socialists, then the others. (There were many political parties) Then they were put in camps, then others were sent, too. Jewish people were first made to live in ghettos, out of sight out of mind. They were sent to the camps, the gas chambers later, when the Nazis realised that they couldn't just put them on an island far away.
Please, understand that you will not one day wake up and suddenly the death camps are there. It's a process.
The Nazis had a training run for the gas chambers. It was murdering disabled people. In buses made to be gas chambers. Nobody wanted to know. And now nobody remembers.
They started with a list of undesirable people. And then it got longer.

I mean I know a certain level of projection on fictional characters and situations is inevitable and even healthy, but sometimes you got to step back into the real world to remind yourself that Character X is not your shitty parent/abusive ex/asshole boss/bully from high school, and that people who like Character X are not personally victimizing you.
op is getting death threats now probably

discussion about right wing radicalisation focuses near-exclusively on men becoming white nationalists but i wonder how it might manifest elsewhere. like, imagine a heavily online subculture of mostly women and they're dedicated to rooting out degeneracy, maintaining a rigid social order, refusing to acknowledge scientific consensus, being violently paranoid of a dehumanised other, adhering to exclusively eurocentric standards of beauty and politically dedicated to exterminating a minority group (possibly one that was already historically targeted for genocide). that'd be fuckin crazy lol
