it's better than the US but that's such a low bar. an incredibly low bar. canada has much to work on

i miss canada so much but i'm so tired of people treating it like it's paradise, so i rarely talk about it

it's unsatisfying how many people turned out evil or something close. there wasn't really much of a happy ending. and not a whole lot of punching up either.

i get that jessica jones and luke cage are supposed to be "dark marvel" or whatever, handling more deep and unsavoury topics than the typical superhero properties. but it's a shame that properties meant to uplift marginalised folks instead end up upholding oppressive institutions, creating strawmen, and only exploring deep internal struggles of "am i really good or am i the real bad guy?" with marginalized characters? why are PoC-focused superhero properties always about infighting?

luke cage's personality changes, on the other hand, were uncalled for. i mean, he had a lot of bad influences and multiple kinds of power dangling in front of him. but he mostly seemed to use it for good. but he had so many people helping him out, it shouldn't have been a problem.

the growth of his ego felt forced. and i really don't like any of the possible stories that could come from this. like...why does it have to be a black man who's displaying how power can corrupt???

the one thing they seemed to handle well was bushmaster. honestly, i was very much thinking that they'd kill him off at some point or throw him in prison. but the fact that he sorta just accepted defeat and eventually knew when to step back was good. honestly i hope he becomes a more positively portrayed character in future; i really liked him.

mm, the ending of luke cage s02 didn't sit well with me. most of the season didn't, really. i hope next season they do better.

paws,

i'm up pretty early considering i only fell asleep around 5 hours ago but i guess that's what happens when for the first time in several days your body is feeling great

good morning

anyway it's time for SLEEP goodnight folks

@monorail goodnight holly, sleep well

@monorail lmao

i took a little bit of kratom to help alleviate some body pain for a little while because it was that bad (i only usually give into kratom if i have a migraine or something these days) and now i have a slight headache but a good chunk of the body pain is under control so. not sure if it was a worthy tradeoff (though the headache could be something else; i did skip on cbd last night, and i'm not exactly well hydrated)

Do not eat the rich. All the toxins aggregate in the predators at the top of the food chain. Responsibly compost the rich

@monorail i'm happy for me too! how relatable

tfw i'm a dog

*loses a single game of salmon run on the 3rd wave* "i'm never playing this game again"

2-0 on salmon run tonight so far, so that's a plus
