I am so tired of short-attention-span, trim-the-fat culture.
All writing advice these days is for how to write like Chuck Palahniuk. "Cut 'think', cut 'feel', cut 'wonder' - only action, only pushing forward, show and move and move and move." What if I could emulate this style, and still don't want to? What if I want to write like Henry James, with three paragraphs of introspective musings between each dialogue line?
The music advice is, "make it shortform, make it Tik-Tok compatible, make it punchy, hit the refrain as soon as possible." What if I want that 10-minute prog rock piece? What if I want that symphony? What if I want it slow and luxurious and lazy?
Movies. Series. Poetry. Bodies. Everything is "trimmed trimmed trimmed trimmed, stripped bare, you have three seconds to win me over, make it airport chic." I don't want to win you over, then, I guess.
I want the fat left it.
I want the pleasure and the indolence and the indulgence.
Fuck this art-advice that's always "your art needs Ozempic."
I've seen it mentioned a lot that Kaz didn't believe Van Eck could hate his son so much as to want him dead, but I think there's something very satisfying about the way Kaz finally enacts revenge on him.
Kaz wants Van Eck to suffer. And how does that happen in the end? He makes sure Wylan inherits everything.
Kaz goes from not believing Jan could hate his child to the point of murder, to realizing the best revenge, the best way to make it hurt, was making Wylan heir. Poetic justice I say.
about to crash out on the train because people are talking louder than my noise cancelling headphones that are on almost full volume WHY can i still hear you all???
no offense but like... in revolutionary school, as vicious as musain rule, i got my feelings bruised by the leader in red. And i propped the bar as he told me, "R, you're good for nothing, fool." And i heard every word that he said.
I will forever mourn the fact that Wylan gets the "uwu he's such a sweet smol bean" energy because he's a twink when Matthias Helvar is canonically a Disney princess. Let Wylan be feral and let Matthias be soft in 2026 my precious friends. I don't care if Matthias is a giant buff man he's so small he fits in my pocket, and I don't care if Wylans a skinny femboy he can beat the shit out of me.
I just know Will was one of those people who are very funny inside their head but only say a handful of the jokes that they come up with, and then after he came out and started to feel more comfortable and confident in himself he started saying the jokes way more often and expressing them out loud to the point of people being shocked of some of the things that come out of his mouth and realising the sass level is way higher than he let them know previously. Like they really underestimated how funny he truly is.
