just watched the meromorphic video essay (x) on morel orel. disappointed, and here's why:
surface level interpretation overall despite over an hour runtime, bad pacing
got some unspoken but clearly shown plot points wrong (orel did not KILL CHILDREN FOR THEIR BLOOD. it was obviously him getting his friends to drain their own blood into the bath. they were all shaking and holding their wrists over the tub. missing a key detail like that makes me doubt his takles on this media entirely)
heiniously underacknowledged the complexities of alone (ms sculptham wasn't just raped, she was part of her own plot to get creepler i think cause there was a whole thing about her dying her hair, "i just left the door unlocked," and he didn't even mention that she got an abortion with a coathanger. come on)
NITPICKY, ADMITTEDLY: cited a personal reddit post on representation of rape victims in media, which was not enough of an analysis of rape culture or the episode to serve as a source. but its a personal video essay he can get jiggy with it but i disliked it PERSONALLY. the post did make good points about how joking about rape in the previous seasons was greenlit but addressing the effects of that rape on the women got the show cancelled, but that wasn't even mentioned in the essay and it SHOULDVE BEEN
claimed it to be a criticism of "Southern Baptists in the Bible Belt" when it is explicitly portraying MIDWESTERN. american middle class nuclear family WASPs. SPECIFICALLY. the lack of faith, the prioritization of protestant work ethic and money, the structure of the puppington family (especially clay, literally a deconstruction of the glass of scotch pipe belt whupping american father) and like. the entire everything being about MIDWEST WASPs was key to the portrayal of the show. "southern baptists in the bible belt" come the fuck on
acted like it was a reveal that bloberta was racist? they're literally all racist. this is a portrayal of the ideal white supremacist WASP society. monoracial. they push this idea from the jump they are all racist dude to act like season 2 was where it showed up and saying thats the example of the tonal shift is just. naive at best.
used the concept of "whoa they were clay puppets with silly names but the show was serious and dark" as a justification for the vice quote/thesis "moral orel walked so shows like bojack horseman and rick & morty could fly"
which is a stupid way of saying it opened the doors not only for adult animation reaching darker topics but taking those topics seriously (as opposed to stuff like robot chicken) and executing them artistically anyway
but that isnt even a compelling justification, i wish he had gone more into the fact that the show was cancelled BECAUSE of that episode and that there was a followup episode called "Raped" that contributed to that. like if you're going to make your thesis imply the presence of meta-analysis FOLLOW UP ON THAT! not just that you personally drawing the conclusion of "the show is about dark things and everyone is sad" the show is about REAL things the show is about americana!
and bitch i could say more too. 2/5 stars. pedestrian. and so ends my catechism.
Unpacking The Owl House | Killed before its time
The demands of university teaching, addressed to students … with [only] a modest (and frequently less than modest) mathematical baggage, led me to … start from an intuitive baggage common to everyone, independent of any technical language used to express it, and anterior to any such language—it turned out that the geometric and topological intuition of shapes, particularly two-dimensional shapes, formed such a common ground. These themes can be grouped under the general names “topology of surfaces” or “geometry of surfaces”, … the main emphasis being on the … combinatorial aspects which form the most down-to-earth technical expression of them—and not on the differential, conformal, Riemannian, holomorphic, [Kähler, contact, symplectic, Moishezon] aspects—and from there on to ℂ algebraic curves.

Five-Value Theorem of Nevanlinna
Five-Value Theorem of Nevanlinna
In German known as Fünf-Punkte-Satz. This theorem is astounding. It says: If two meromorphic functions share five values ignoring multiplicity, then both functions are equal. Two functions, and , are said to share the value if and have the same solutions (zeros). More precisely, suppose and are meromorphic functions and are five distinct values. If where then . For a generalization see Some…
