The blue car it's utterly brilliant. It is such a character. […] That car is very rare. It's hard to find. I think they had to search high and low for that car and if anything's gonna go wrong with this one I remember they mentioning that it would be very hard to replace it. - Karolina Wydra about the Toyota Corolla Deluxe Zosia drives.

HEART CODE
"Vicky, the daughter of a powerful police officer, has dodged assassination attempts and is now secretly in an elite training program. There, she meets Thara, a disciplined officer with sharp instincts. They're forced to share a room, and their chemistry starts to change. But political conspiracies, a hidden murder, and a complicated past threaten to tear them apart. When Thara finds out that Vicky's father might be connected to her own family's tragedy, their feelings are tested by duty, danger, and the cost of truth. They have to choose between justice and the love they never knew they had."

Official Trailer:
She broke up with her girlfriend then asked for an atomic bomb.
when the doomed yuri I ordered is actually doomed D:
oh jesus they're so fucking DOOMED! best case scenario is they hold hands and blow up the atom bomb together. srslllly if this show weren't so fucking good and has so many layers of storytelling i would QUIT IT NOW.
Was pondering more about Manousos' fear of theft (he hides money in his ceiling lamp, he says everyone's souls have been stolen, he tells the Others everything they have is stolen) as well as his fear of being a thief. He refuses to take anything without paying for it, and some of that is likely, as others have pointed out, rigid autistic Sense of Justice, but I think there's a piece missing. So for fanfic purposes, I started researching. What exactly happened in Colombia that could make this man terrified of theft?
I found out about expropriation.
Note that this paragraph is talking about a specific incident that took place in 2001 and involves a rural village, but that this was also happening for decades around Bogotá. So you could well be a city dweller and still have the state evict you to acquiese to American/European corporations.
There was a large wave of evictions in Bogotá in the 1980s and 1990s, which would line up with Manousos' childhood or early adult years.
If you were forced to leave your home, if your land was taken from you, if your family had to move because of this, it would indeed be a form of theft, and cause generational trauma. (And I wonder if it also had anything to do with the death of his father). The horror of the idea of ever being like the people who hurt you (thieves) could indeed install a deep moral conviction in a young person. They hurt you so badly, that you never want to be like them. So you pay for everything in an almost pathological manner to soothe yourself. This trauma response would be ten times worse if you were an undiagnosed autistic kid.
It's important to remember that while the American/European corporations that did this are scum, the state is also at fault here. And Carlos-Manuel Vesga has gone on record as saying: "Manousos hates corrupt politicians and liars."
I come from a Latin American country (I don't live there now, but my family does) and while rich Americans do tend to move in and do whatever they like, they wouldn't be able to if our government didn't let them. Often when LATAM people bring up their own country's corruption I see a lot of Americans on here be really shitty to them. For example, lots of people from the USA called Venezuelans "gusanos" because they had the gall to say that even though they hated Trump, Maduro was still a corrupt dictator. I cannot imagine the level of arrogance some Americans confidently hold to tell Venezuelans they know better than them about their own country's politics lol.
If Manousos' backstory does involve expropriation, I'm hoping the show has this more nuanced take and calls out both the USA and the local state for their combined corruption. I can see a lesser show just writing this out entirely.
I have a feeling it will be handled well, as this group of writers tend to be very careful and nuanced with character development.
Of course, this is all speculation, and maybe this has nothing to do with his backstory at all.
The fact that the hive refrains from killing, doing no harm to an ant or grass, to the point of preferring to starve and let humanity—their host—perish within 10 years, is probably not because they are kind and appreciate life, but because they cannot tolerate the negative emotions that may arise from subjects being killed. Every time they receive negative emotions, they are disrupted.
Furthermore, when Zosia/the hive was asked about her favorite food, she answered enthusiastically: mango ice cream, and went deeper into happy childhood memories: watching giant ships leaving the harbor, and the ice cream vendor who gave her ice cream even though she couldn't afford it.
But when asked about her ex, Zosia/the hive gave some brief answers, "She did, it was a long time ago" and "No, they're not". They revealed nothing deeper about this memory, and likely ignored Carol's previous question: "What happened to them?"
With such brief information, we can tentatively infer that her ex passed away long ago, probably in a situation so painful that Zosia couldn't open up to love anyone else for many years afterward. Perhaps because this part of her memory is so negative, and could potentially disrupt the hive's network, Zosia/the hive didn't delve deeper into it.
Humans connect with each other through both joy and sadness, but the hive only maintains its joining through joy. Maybe sadness can help humankind escape the hive and reclaim their individuality? Like the opening line of Leo Tolstoy's novel Anna Karenina: "Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way."
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT
all the actors are kinda prickly huh
Pluribus, S01E09
zosia disappointed mommy face when dropping off the kiddo with an atom bomb which she INSISTS on having is exactly me reluctantly letting my kid keep the stick shaped like a sword to go with all his other special sticks
I have had a couple of crazy bot comments lately but this one absolutely takes the cake
this was not in terminator 2 but i def think it should be in the latest one whenever that happens
the nature of humanity is that every so often one accidentally invents stursia again
I made a stursia edit tailored to me specifically and I hope you guys enjoy it too
The people who keep insisting Pluribus is "anti communism" or "clearly Vince's anti-commie agenda" drive me nuts. No offense, but that is a 5 year old's analysis of what the Hive is and what the show is saying.
The hive is anything that is forced homogeny. It represents anything that wants to flatten all of human existence and culture into one thing.
That can be anything, including: Capitalism, imperialism, racism, conversion therapy, forced assimilation and even *gasp* communism! Because guess what? Communism has historically been used to oppress people and brute force them to be one thing as well! The sooner you accept that pretty much any ideology can be used for totalitarianism (even the ones that tell you things you want to hear and that you agree with) the less susceptible you will be to cult indoctrination and the trappings of fascism. That's why it's imperative that you keep your critical thinking and individuality instead of acquiescing to people screaming at you to think one way. The importance of being an individual is not the same thing as individualism.
It's no accident that the show's two main heroes are a lesbian and an autistic latino. Three demographics that society has tried to forcefully change.
Koumba argues that the hive is good because there's no more racism. They tell him what he wants to hear, not because racism isn't bad. It's because they want him to assimilate. There won't be anymore racism because they will destroy all races and cultures.
That's what the hive is.
and so, the misery persists
