The reason Harlan had to wash away Oscar's letter was because he couldn't physically write a version of it where he didn't graphically describe passionately making out with Arthur with tongue and censoring it wasn't an option. He had no choice but to destroy it

That fuckin picture of that guy at agraveyard holdin like, a cup or smt, with a mothman sized moth with him, both staring directly at the camera is somehow the funniest image but I havenβt been able to find it in months
ok but like. there are two different types of privilege. there's type a "everybody should have this, but some people don't" and type b "nobody should have this, but some people do"
there's having parents who can pay for your application to any college, and then there's having parents who can bribe your way into any college. there's owning your own home, and then there's owning 50 houses and getting rich off hoarding a vital resource. there's not fearing for your life whenever cops are around, and then there's being the cop and being allowed to murder anyone at any time.
idk i just feel like that's an important distinction to make.
Iβve seen so many people break down the way that the silt verses talked about kindness and the theme of it throughout the show but upon finishing the finale, after chewing through it for an entire week, Iβve realized that nobody has talked much about the part that spoke the most to me.
They all got to watch each other walk away.
Faulkner saw Carpenter walk towards a better future, Carpenter watched his body in turn, free of the role of prophet, to wherever he wanted to go. Hayward verbalized this as he saw Paige walk away, and Paige will meet her destiny watching the backs of her people grow more and more distant.
They were horrible people in a horrible system and they all contributed to it in some way, but they were kind. And the kindness did not save them, but it let them watch the people they loved walk away towards something better, even as that same action brings them closer to the thing that will kill them.
The Silt Verses is about those people who got lost, who got eaten. Even as they die without being dead, turned into tools of the system. Even as we lose people every single day. Even as our old activists become complacent or lose hope or as another advocate for human rights is killed. Every single day we get to see others walk away, despite knowing that theyβre walking towards their death the same way we all are, it is always such a privilege, because along the way they are kind, and if the kindness lasts long enough. If it exists long enough to find a place where the thing that would eat them has starved. All that is left is us. And the kindness. And maybe one day we wonβt have to walk anymore.
Both were filled at the same time with the same water, only one had oysters.
Reblog if you're queer, have ADHD, or hate the government.
Nobody needs to know which one.
