Midnight burger really does an incredible job of having hope as a theme; but like, the teeth-gnashing, tongue-biting, everything-tastes-like-iron-and-dread kind of hope. Everything is fucked and they only get more fucked as time goes on. But they also get better as time goes on. And maybe they don't get always better, but they make it through so that they can get better someday, y'know?
Hopeful not because we can believe but because we must believe. Hopeful in blood, sweat, and tears way. Hopeful in an empathetic way, hopeful in a bitter way, hopeful in a hopeless way, hopeful in a curiosity way. Hopeful in a we will get there and we will make it fucking better, we have to, way. Hopeful in a we make the world way. Hopeful in a we open at fucking six way.
