All this is so disheartening. We see this happen and most of us don't question thinking authority knows better. But do they really? DO they? No, they are people in power, and parity is not their motto apparently because all they do is take away dreams that those with extra struggles on their plate (for almost all their life so far) have nurtured. This is wrong. This is discrimination. This is a fucking attack in a world we live in. This is one of the worst and discriminating power moves ever.
"What if I told you I'mma mastermind?"
"It was all by design; cause I'mma mastermind"
The dream to write late night assignments, apparently it's not very likeable.....

Someone I knew- an acquaintance, died today. I was indifferent to his existence, we all are to most people we casually encounter but it's hard to be entirely indifferent to their death too. You feel for the the possibility of life they could've had, you feel for the sorrow of those who knew them, you feel anxieties and hopelessness of those who were left behind with a hole in their daily lives because of that death. You feel the utter despair even if just for a second. I am not surprised that I did too, even if just for a few minutes as the realness of the moment hit me at once and overwhelmed my mind. I cried, a little but I did and I had no control over it. It's the origin of that burst of grief from within- the heartbreak for the family of that cold dead body being mourned now, the heartbreak of the good and bad that person was being everyday of their life but will be no more, the heartbreak for the cries and heartache that isn't even mine.
Here's to the relief of death still being merely an acquaintance to me.

"One of the profound anxieties I have is that because I only have one life, I am temporally and geographically limited. I can’t live in Brighton and in Barcelona and in Brussels at the same time. I strain against my finitude and wish I could be everywhere.
Reading calms this restlessness and allows me to transcend my limits. This is why I’ve always loved novels with a sense of place. I feel that I know what it is like to grow up in Orhan Pamuk’s Istanbul, hang out in Donna Tartt’s Las Vegas, make a life in Tom Franklin’s Mississippi. When I wrote Berlin, I really wanted to give my readers that travelling experience: to place them in the city so that they would know the food, colours and smells, the strange and wonderfully disorienting social fabric of the place."
-Bea Setton; Author of"Berlin"
Has it ever happened to you in a confrontation that the person you're confronting tells you ,"You could've just done that, why didn't you? Now you're blaming me?"
You don't have a logical counter to that because yes logically you could've done that. But how would you explain someone your internal working mechanism, your fear of consequences if you didn't do it the way you did it, of the actual consequences you would have to face if you didn't do it the way you did? You see, the person you just confronted is blind to your perspective so it's understandable why they see another logical solution to your problem when it's not really a harmless and helpful solution for you, but as a fucking adult, they are supposed to take responsibility for the part where they made the mistake, where they evaded responsibility instead of blaming you for not doing the other way. This is called being logical.
[Moon knight, you better have a season 2!!!]
The crocodile lady is finally Outta her coffin, in technical terms- Goddess Ammit was finally released from her usabti (what happened then shall wait).
Layla politely saying fuck off to khonshu and his tricks. The loveliness of the moment- "the manipulative twat gets told off".
I don't have words for this scene. Marc was finally having his moment, his confession. He manifested the quiet he always wanted but he threw it away without a care just to save Steven, just to have him back.
This was one of the funniest parts in the episode. "Manipulative twat gets told off again"- he literally grumbled at having to deal with Steven! And then they do their little name-game. 'Siply old bird' and 'little worm', of course it's sarcasm from both sides but fuck that- pet names are pet names.
May calamawy!!!!! Mama ate it!!! The way she switched between Taweret and herself- bent in pain) oh man!! She's BRILLIANT bloody hell!
And the costume!! Fire!! Taweret and Layla gonna end up besties!
That little smirk Layla gave to Marc like - "I'm saving your ass again, by the way in a costume this time" and the "oh, baby" Marc said and hugged her. Holy shit, therapy really did wonders on my boy, finally talking without restraints. Notice how the first thing Marc does is check up on her and then Steven out like "holy shit babe, what IS THAT?!" . Because of course Steven knows Layla can kick ass.
Steven fought!!! And the little dust off. Boy, his confidence literally had me out of my seat the whole time.
"Are you an Egyptian superhero?"
"Yes"
Hoy shit! The world finally has an Egyptian superhero, go Layla go. The pride in her voice though🔪
Not the knife 🤍
The Spanish killer's back in the league. And this time Jake's literally there. And is that khonshu in a fucking suit? They literally are like "jakey got a cabbie so we go take a trip to loony bin, let me wear my panty....no pants, yes pants."
By the way, Jake has a fucking temper and his first response to almost any stimuli has been to kill and escape so far..maybe he's doing this to protect Marc and Steven from khonshu and his horrors?
OMFG.
