i feel strongly about this
Something that I first applied to working with children, and have applied in a limited form to working with adults: you don't need to tell someone when they read your instructions wrong. Sometimes it's enough to point out what they did right and then whatever they didn't do? You ask them to do it in more precise words, and you make it sound like it's a new request. Remarkable how fast things get done this way.
This is also a habit I built up from emergency response training. If I say "I need you to bring me a first aid kit and an accident report" and you bring me just a first aid kit, it's so much more efficient to say "thanks now can you bring me an accident report" than "I asked you to bring an accident report why didn't you bring me one".
Once you've internalized "a person bleeding out is one of the worst times to start an argument" you start to wonder what other tasks could get accomplished without arguing
"why are you focusing on hating jk rowling getting money instead of the actual laws being passed?" yeah bro those laws do seem pretty awful and transphobic. i wonder who's lobbying for them?
it’s harder than it looks, okay
Students at The University of Texas are open-carrying dildos in protest of the state’s loose gun laws. Roy Wood, Jr. gets both sides of the story.
“Carrying a dildo is obscene!
Not like a gun!”
Because as we all now, dildos have been responsible for so many terrible tragedies
Not like guns, which have never caused any kind of problem on a college campus or at a school
When you think the words “School” and “Guns” you immediately think “Nothing bad has happened ever”
Especially if you live in America!

THE LAST OF US - BILL & FRANK
something something joel and ellie interpret the radio transmission from bill and frank - an 80s song - as a call for help, and so does the audience. but then by the time we get to see what bill and frank have been up to, we understand that the 80s music playing on joel’s radio wasn’t a call for help but was instead bill’s playlist auto-shuffling after he died with frank. that this thing that the audience interpreted first as a sign of fear was actually a marker of love persisting past death. what we first thought would be scary was instead deeply tragic but also beautiful, kind of like the last of us as a whole… something something
only thoughts after episode 3 of hbo’s tlou
Just give me one more good day.
Take me to the boutique, where I’ll pick outfits for us. You’ll wear what I ask…and we’ll get married.
I am floored I am flabbergasted I cannot believe it
In the game, Bill and Frank were almost nothing. Bill was a joke character, he shows up, he’s a doomsday prepper, he helps you fight zombies, gives you a truck battery, and you leave. Ellie steals some comics and a gay porno magazine from him, and he’s never seen again.
Frank WAS nothing. You never see him. You find his BODY, he got bit and hung himself, and he got bit trying to escape Bill because he hated him so much and the note says he’s happier dead than living another day with Bill
And then the show. The show took that shallow, mean storyline, and made it beautiful.
Now Bill and Frank are real characters. We know them. Really KNOW them. And they don’t hate each other. In fact they’re in love. They’re really IN LOVE. And yes they argue and disagree sometimes but they’re a real couple who really love each other while still being two people so sometimes they fight. That doesn’t change that they’re in love
And they GET TO BE IN LOVE, the whole time, they’re doing things for each other. They’re living in their little gated paradise and it’s beautiful. They make it pretty. They grow food. They’re eating gourmet meals. They’re not just surviving. They’re thriving. They’re living
They took that mean spirited game story, and they made it the point, the heart, the example of what people are still fighting for. The proof that yes, even in the middle of the apocalypse, you can still live a good life. Not an easy life, you will still have bad days, you’ll have bad days with the ones you love, but you will still love them, and they will still love you. And then, with all these grizzly, horrific deaths we see two deaths that are peaceful. Painless. Two men who die old, satisfied, and in the arms of their purpose.
Don’t you see? It’s about hope
Bill and Frank are hope
Nick and Charlie:
Wille falling in love with Simon through his voice make so much sense by the way the whole series is implying how attach Wille is to music. How he listens to specific music that is driven by his emotion or how it comforts him when he is down.
Simon singing loudly was the first reason he smiled at Hillerska. And as time soon passed, Simon became Wille's music. He became the driver of Wille's emotion. Became his comfort when the world is too much.
Crazy enough, the same boy has written a song solely for him. Driven by the emotions Simon deeply felt for Wille. Trying to reach his heart.
What makes it heartfelt is instead of a written poetry just like everyone else in the month of love, it was instead delivered through music that he loves the most (Simon's voice).
