i Miss when we would get letter updates here and there :-( i wish holli wasn’t torn apart for hers. the one she got was literally the best one and one of the things that humanizes him the most. deadass almost forgot he was gen z lmao. how certain people acted about the letters was strange to me bc it’s ok to post pictures of him as a kid but not okay to celebrate the letters, somehow? but also feeling torn about luigi’s privacy, too, considering that he doesn’t have that anymore, in or out of prison. sending a beam of good wishes to his direction so hard rn
I do too, anon, honestly. The other day, I was thinking about that one letter he shared back in March—the one written in response to the girl whose friend Ivan really admired and liked Luigi a lot. Ivan even mentioned how his girlfriend was jealous that Luigi was taking up “all” of Ivan’s attention, and in response, Luigi wrote back to the girl telling Ivan’s girlfriend to back off because Ivan was his now, even throwing in a playful “sorry!” like 😭😭😭??? Not Ivan’s gf catching strays and Luigi just taking somebody’s man like that LMAOOOO
Like, that was so fucking wholesome. I hate how, because of the unfortunate timing and setting surrounding when Holli’s letter came out (right around his February court appearance) so many people were distraught and overwhelmed. I mean, we had just seen him in shackles and a bulletproof vest, facing the threat of being sent to Rikers, after nearly three months of complete silence. And to be clear, I’m not saying it was Holli’s fault to show her letter around that time, because it absolutely wasn’t. But that letter didn’t deserve the level of scrutiny and judgment it got. It made no sense to rip it apart like that. I agree with you that it’s probably one of the best letters we’ve seen. It reminded us of his sense of humor and that irresistible spark he has.
Because let’s be real: joking about committing the “heinous crime” of eating a hashbrown while being in federal prison, facing literal terrorism charges, and with now navigating the constitutional issues surrounding the search and seizure in PA? That’s honestly fucking hilarious. That’s so him. And I wish that letter had just been appreciated for what it was. Like, literally, I love him and his energy sooo bad 😭 I kind of forget he’s Gen Z too (like me) and that his humor can be so dry and hilarious, and it still is, despite all that he’s been through these last months. But then you think about the way he was “expected” to act in his letter replies, and how Holli got treated for just sharing hers… and it spiraled. And then with how people even started speaking on his behalf, going so far as to say he wasn’t in a “good mental place” and that they were going to contact his legal team—over a letter not even addressed to them???
I still can’t believe that happened.
And yeah, in a way, I still feel torn about his privacy too, like you said. Of course, I’d love to see more funny little moments of him being goofy and comical like he always is, but I don’t want people posting things he says that were meant to stay private. Some letters are clearly only meant for him and the person he’s writing to, and that’s on that. In the end, we all just want to know he’s doing okay—we hope he is, even if sometimes he has to put on a front and say he’s fine some days. But even while in federal custody, he’s still human. He’s still entitled to his privacy, just like anyone else in this world.
I didn’t mean to ramble on about this for so long Jesus Christ but I appreciate you expressing your opinion about this very much
