personally i dont think karen using ziggs correct pronouns is like proof the chasitys r like so awesome and chill abt trans ppl like . legit feel like they arent like everyones entitled to their opinions on it yk ofc but imo it kinda takes away from the commentary of the harm of fundamentalist xtian views esp when they r canonically homophobic ones and ones clearly based in like. gender roles to act like transphobia isnt part of those harmful views yk but like i do have my own takes on those lines in hatchet town being. number 1 the kindaa boring one lol is that the songs in the show are non diagetic yk so its kinda like when ur telling a story abt ur friend whos nonbinary and like their mom or whoever is transphobic or theyre not out to her nd u have to mention smth their mom said abt them in the story but its not at all relevant to the story tht theyre closeted to her or she doenst respect their identity and like regardless u dont wanna deadname nd misgender ur friend so ur gonna say it like she was using the right name and pronouns assuming ur talking to someone theyre out to right. what im saying is the meta narrative (and also team starkid bc i suspect the real not in universe reason is they didnt wanna misgender both the character and their actor whos actually non binary which is like rly valid nd fair yk like esp in the instance of the simple hatchet town cameo irrelevent to any other hypothetical commentary i think itd feel less like an actual commentary on transphobia and more like. just pointless and somewhat transphobic in an of itself yk) is ziggs friend in this analogy and its not going misgender them even if it is repeating something karen said thank you very much ! and number 2 the less boring one is that ziggs nonbinary swag is so powerful tht the transphobes of hatchetfield dont know how to misgender them so theyre forced to respect their identity bc they dont know how to disrespect it lol

honestly the best lore is when u make it random ass lore bits bc it gives joong vibes like... ur aware of all of it but everyone else struggles: torture LMAO
no bc i'd say the ult situation is relatable... but it's not... for me at least... i've always been kinda picky but also kinda instant?? LMAO IDKGJHFDSHJFDS i just. get to know the group ig and then there's usually one or two?? that i kinda gravitate towards and once i rly get to know the group i'm like oh. yeah it made sense. yeah ur mine now. DSJHSJHDSJ LIKE? (past bc i rly. only stan ateez. idk. idk how. don't ask) when i stanned bts i kinda knew them already but jungkook like stood out, n once i got to know them 'well' i was like yes this is it. also shinee's taemin, yes. but then we ARE quite similar bc i don't have many ults either! i've only ever ulted jungkook (less now), taemin (military pls give him back), wooyoung (this was difficult i rly did not want to give in) and now san too.. idk how it happened ajeshgjhdg
THERE IS SOMETHING I WANT TO KNOW HONESTLY AND IT IS ABOUT! COLLECTING bc u mentioned u bought a lot of merch during tour!!! so i'm assuming.. u collect yunho photocards too.. hehe.. do u.. i kinda want to start collecting woosan?? but at the same time i'm like, do i wanna go through that stress? not really.. but also i can just be a casual collector and make a wishlist n collect my wl woosan? (+joong?)?? BUT ALSO i have expensive taste so like. idk.
AND SO EXCITINGGG korea so soon and i'm SORRY i literally haven't started on that ppt but i promise u once i get my shit together i will bc i still really like the idea LMAO JUST DONT!

also my extensive thoughts on squid game for some ... odd reason:
excellent til ep 6 and just got progressively worse frm there and the final episode was pathetic - im sorry. you can tell that they gave up in the writing room after that point LOL. im sad abt it tho the marble ep made me think this was going to become my fav kdrama but then the writing flopped severely so .... awks
i felt the commentary on class was very effective & nuanced until they brought in the guffawing rich spectators. dropped the ball on that - pretty corny and banal display of that dynamic imo.
the barrage of twist n turns at the end ... also very stupid to me. i get that there was somewhat of a setup for who’d the mastermind would be but it was so predictable im sorry. also the frontman being yk who ... was also very stupid to me - made no sense and no further elaboration on how he ended up like that either - it felt like a flung in piece of the story even w the minimal setup done for it. do you see how much i dislike the last stretch of this show? it’s godawful writing anyways
sangwoo and saebyeok were the best written & most interesting characters. love gihun and ali but damn the naïveté got on my nerves a bit. but ig you want to believe that ppl like them exist. to keep faith in the world you want to believe that ppl can be so tender-hearted even when faced w life or death matters. but i find their characters extremely hard to believe - sangwoo and saebyeok seemed like a more accurate depiction of how ppl would respond to this situation. and gihuns makeover was hilarious. and i dont think that was the intention there? like i get that he lost his shit afterwards but fire hydrant red?! like you’re some nugu boy group member? LOL
yay for the lesbians but also nay bc it ended just as quickly as it “begun” but im not surprised this alw happens
old man’s conclusion of his character arc was also very stupid to me but i think that’s just bc i hate nonsensical evil characters. like if you’re gonna be evil i want your motivation to have some kind of justification - it doesn’t rly matter if it’s legitimate or based in any kind of morals - just not the ‘oh he’s just batshit insane’ conclusion. it’s lazy and easy writing and doesn’t rly say anything worthwhile at all
returning to gi hun - i get that he feels some kind of obligation to pursue this operation and get them shut down. but the fact that he had another chance to have his kid again & didnt take up on that? ! yeah ok ... you win millions but you’re so consumed by the guilt you develop a savior complex so profound that you go on to pursue it and consequentially abandon a kid you were somewhat entrusted with & not bother in reuniting and redeeming yourself w your daughter you failed for yrs ... okayyy? maybe im selfish but if i won millions i’d live a quiet life i’d get my kid back and take care of the kid i promised to take care of too and try to absolve myself w charity/community work and just let the guilt and ptsd of those days eat away at me LOL. but maybe it’s just bc my whole life philosophy is incompatible w the way he thinks. i feel like you have to take care of your own folks/your own circle first then you can play suphero all you want 🙄. like before you get your clark kent on let’s at least try doing the present father thing. also i think i’d empathize more w him giving in to his vengeance plan if he ... actually had the capability of taking these ppl on. but he doesnt. literally he got as far as he did due to luck not particularly bc he had any kind of special skillset/survivalism in him. he’s also awfully pacifist and didn’t bring in reinforcement so i dont see how he’d even get back at these ppl i just dont feel like he’d survive them again? unless he just has an endless wealth of luck
like ok ik this was kind of just a list of complaints but i rly think this was very solid like it was a good show. dope premise, awesome cast n acting, clever commentary, everything flowed for the majority of this - it just fell off in the end but that’s pretty typical of kdramas. but honestly i’d hate to see this get a s2 - they should just leave it at this in all its glory. or rather i’d hate if s2 followed gi hun’s journey w his newfound savior complex. but like another round of the squid game w diff childrens games and w diff ppl involved yeah ... that would be cool acc
