i've been following you since, god, since i think you were only six or so episodes into season 1??? i've been rather shy about talking to you directly but i really wanted you to know just how enamored i am both with your quest (writing analysis posts for every episode) and with your product. i'm so impressed with the way you've built up such a strong emotional narrative that's cohesive and compelling, to the point that even if the writers/kripke himself weren't conscious of every element they injected into the story, i can't possibly see it any other way anymore. like what was the intended reading of this show if not freaky psychosexual incest brothers, seriously. you make strong arguments for your reading and interpretations, and i love seeing you put together the evidence and draw connections across and within episodes.

anyway all this to say, whenever i try to get a friend of mine to watch this wretched show i always send your posts to them as additional reading after every episode they watch haha. it's a genuinely good breakdown of each episode, and on top of that the wincest narrative you've woven via the text drives me insane, and i want my friends to understand that insanity too :)

sorry for the long ask! i'm long-winded by nature lol. keep fighting the good fight; i'm so so so looking forward to your post on playthings :)

I am so so happy that you decided to reach out, thank you!! 🩷 I’m having so much fun writing them. It’s taking me a lot longer now because I really am trying to track the whole thread of their relationship through season 6 and there’s SO much. Many of the points I make are hills I would die on but some are moreso just observations that I’m not sure were on purpose either, but yeah at a certain point you just can’t ignore that it’s more about the degree and type of psychosexual incest than it is about whether it exists. Kripke our lord and savior was fucking nuts.

I LOVE that you’re sharing these posts with friends- I do that exact same thing when I’m really into something. Sharing things I’m excited about is my love language so hearing that other people were thinking the same things or noticed stuff I didn’t is just. It’s the best you’re the best.
