Heavy on the Arctic part
I realized something about michael last night that i haven’t converted from “rant in friend’s dms” so I’ll just put the conclusion here and elaborate later: michael distortion’s horror is mostly Hunt-oriented actually (fair bit of Eye too), not Spiral
Taking really long naps and only waking up to scream
For a long time I didn’t care about Breekon and Hope. Okay, spooky delivery guys with a coffin, cool, next thing. And then Hope died and I listened to every time Breekon was around without him and augh this puts it so well
uno how aristophanes belived there were three sexes: male, female and androgynous, who had male and female sex organs, two sets of limbs and two faces. the gods believed them to be too strong and so split the androgynous humans into two beings. they would long for their other half and would spend their lives looking for the matching half of their human whole. that's what today wld be referred to as soulmates.
thats how i think of breekon and hope. two halves of a being that was once one, a long long time ago. they are two parts of a perfect whole, never meant to have been separated. and i dont think its necessarily romantic, because your soulmate isnt always your romantic or sexual interest, they are just whoever makes you whole. and love is just the persuit of wholeness.
There’s a crossover lurking in this post. Im gonna find it.

Martin would be genuinely horrified by my tea tastes.
Let me tell you how i make my tea. I boil water, pour it in the mug with the tea bag. So far so good.
And then i forget it exists for a half hour.
Result: lukewarm tea (sometimes reheated in microwave), steeped half to death, no sugar or milk. And i LOVE it.
I had a VIVID mental image of what the extinguished sun looked like after the eclipse. Nothing directly related to thinfs i saw during the eclipse, but mmm. So many thoughts. Colours
Late but this is me when I hear about an eclipse
Every younger sibling I know feels like they can’t do the older sibling’s “thing”. Older sibling is a soccer player? Can’t do that! Older sibling is a computer geek? Computers are now impossibly confusing. Older sibling likes star wars? Your only two options are star trek or to forgo science fiction altogether. I don’t know why this is the case but my guess is so that the younger sibling’s successes can’t be directly compared to the older one’s, which will probably be better because they’ve done it longer.
Now, I know Stan and Ford are twins and thus the same age. But I think something similar applies here: Stan couldn’t be a nerd because Ford got the title first. So he didn’t even try. Ford would always be smarter, so he embraced his other skills (of physical prowess and later scamming).
In order to rebuild the portal, Stan not only had to process his grief and guilt enough to do things, but also get over the feeling that math was “Ford’s thing” that he was “taking over”. He had to get over the “Ford’s the smart one” rhetoric. Stan gets way too little credit in the fandom for what he managed to pull off to bring Ford back, both mathematically/mentally, and emotionally.
I had this EXACT thought about an hour before seeing this post and started immediately planning Large Art Projects That I Will Never Finish based on it because That Is What I Do
ok ok, so, I just kind of realised that Simon Fairchild is older than planes right? so, can you imagine how excited he was when they were invented? he felt the fresh fear of the wright brothers for those first 12 seconds and went insane.
OR, alternatively, he invented the aeroplane because he was bored of just throwing people from cliffs
ohmygod. he was absolutely fucking ecstatic. overwhelmed with joy. best day of his life. he would force every other avatar onto a plane immediately
The corruption (rotten fruit) got on my collection of stickers with eye vibes. This means something
