here in washington it's 102. if it gets any cooler i won't be able to wear my jacket that i've ripped the stuffing out of so i could replace it with liquid helium
you know what's worse is the internal disconsistency with which people treat genre deconstructions such as for example Madoka Magica, and people like, they want that to be all things, so when an episode of Steven Universe doesn't crush their soul, they are upset.
It's like playing dice and expecting to get a full house. That's what it's like.

You know what I mean Odradek
The further irony is that, while Madoka Magica is deconstructive, and does examine certain elements of its chosen genre in the process, it's not a deconstruction of its genre. Like, there are shows that deconstruct their genres. Neon Genesis Evangelion does by the end. But what people seem to expect is the aspect of subversion and darkening through examination, which is only a single, relatively shallow aspect of deconstruction.
everyone need sto listen to my words right now. iz
cuz i am wize and i am the queen of tv-land.
my gemsona is just a piece of coal. just you need tou nderstand that ik now things and most people do not know the things I know. I'm prettzy sharp is what I'm trying to say here is what I'm staying.
Like, what PMMM is, is a deconstruction of "moral tragedies," particularly the "be careful what you wish for" variety, what they mean to a given audience and why people want that sort of moral cause and effect and how they relate to some of the darker overtones in the magical girl genre and all that; and NGE is a deconstruction of giant robot shows insofar as it examines the elements of escape and projection and power fantasy in giant robot shows and what the robot and the enemies mean and why people want to jump in the robot to begin with even when the experience should quasi-objectively terrify and repulse them were it real. Both seriously go all in with understanding, dissecting and revealing their own premises on as many levels as possible, but the former isn't about the kind of setting and format it's in, but the kind of emotional story it's ostensibly presenting.
Look. listen. I get that. You get. You get that. Your words and such are wize. And they are good words and I am listening to them.
but OK. Right ow. I need to you listen to me. Like, listen, buz like.
people wants the Jasper, and then when she hshows up and is bad people are like 'no we did not want this jasper" nd that's wrong. That's a weisdom that people need to learn. That they cannot want the jasper abut also complain about the jasper when they get it. That is the wrong way to interpret z the gjasepr
and you are right. lke. PM/z it's fOUSt right. Like it's faust.
like that but like. It's also a mgacgical girl that. Because wish fulfillment, and also wishes. Wishes are like. Kind of like what happens in Fuast. SO it's like fauts. In that way. In the iwish way.
You're typing like you're the Titanic and you just hit the iceberg. And the iceberg was made of vodka. It was a vodka iceberg.
no i really haeve perfect commandf of what i'm saying it's hrd to type coherently though when you're this tired czus my laptops keyoard is real small and your hands just flinda flopple all over it like whoop a whoop de doo
I can type normally if I go really slow
but ssssssssssssorta ia am just hoping th every one here knows me waell enough to know that i am just tired and sleepy znd silly and doenst care much
You know, when I'm sleep deprived I just get bored and depressied and scroll through Twitter mindlessly...
I seem basically the same but whinier and more prone to awful jokes and advanced similes. This is also true of me when I am drunk or accidentally high on some sort of medication. I am a happy drunk by nature. Generally I am most maudlin when I am intensely awake and hideously depressed. Which is different from being overcaffeinated and depressed. Then I am pissed off and a bit difficult.
This is closer to hwo i think than whow i normally tpy.e I thi nk most people think in fully sentences but i really sort of dont' the words just kind of fit together ay wirerd angles and then, they you know they go together and you put them bakto tgether in a differnet order so people know what m you mean them by, and that is how one person talks to another po or at leats that is how i tal k to another persons
nnd i suppose when i am at my lopppoies t i am just trustng no one her to seriously judgem e or think me bad or annyoing or stupzi because of it

Not caring about diminshed motor control is very drunky, though.
I do find your presence pleasant and entertaining but I worry because you should sleep! I woke up in the late afternoon but I am pretty sure you woke up like a normal person...
Those seem like rather petty details to get hung up on. And if you're not going to reinterpret your source material somehow, what's even the point of a remake? But admittedly, I'm not a big enough fan of the originals to get hung up even if a remake is objectively terrible.
If you're gonna complain about The Jungle Book (2016), why not bring up the point that Mowgli stays in the jungle, rather than returning to man? But apparently the entire remake has this subtext about immigration? And why do so few people care about the books when they talk about Faithfulness To The Source Material?

Go to bed. You're posting like you're really, really drunk.
It's hilarious but definitely future regret fuel.

Weird.
Still. I personally need to go to bed, but I want to listen to another album...
Nah. Goodnight. Don't torch the place while I'm gone or Steven-spam the place into the ground.
