I woke up feeling heartbroken because of Alchemy of Souls. Rewatching makes me cry even more. /sobs;

There was no way Shuri could leave after seeing super secret Talokan. It would not make sense to release her on Namor's part. Maybe that was a point of her asking? But then Namor said "I'll keep you both." I'm sure Shuri would have been able to convince him to let Riri go if Nakia hadn't shown up. There would have been a lot of negotiations and espionage to gather Intel in the surface world and that would have been a lot of fun to see.

the thing is there's like, a point of oversaturation for everything, and it's why so many things get dropped after a few minutes. and we act like millennials or gen z kids "have short attention spans" but... that's not quite it. it's more like - we did like it. you just ruined it.
capitalism sees product A having moderate success, and then everything has to come out with their "own version" of product A (which is often exactly the same). and they dump extreme amounts of money and environmental waste into each horrible simulacrum they trot out each season.
now it's not just tiktokkers making videos; it's that instagram and even fucking tumblr both think you want live feeds and video-first programming. and it helps them, because videos are easier to sneak native ads into. the books coming out all have to have 78 buzzwords in them for SEO, or otherwise they don't get published. they are making a live-action remake of moana. i haven't googled it, but there's probably another marvel or starwars something coming out, no matter when you're reading this post.
and we are like "hi, this clone of project A completely misses the point of the original. it is soulless and colorless and miserable." and the company nods and says "yes totally. here is a different clone, but special." and we look at clone 2 and we say "nope, this one is still flat and bad, y'all" and they're like "no, totally, we hear you," and then they make another clone but this time it's, like, a joyless prequel. and by the time they've successfully rolled out "clone 89", the market is incredibly oversaturated, and the consumer is blamed because the company isn't turning a profit.
and like - take even something digital like the tumblr "live streaming" function i just mentioned. that has to take up server space and some amount of carbon footprint; just so this brokenass blue hellsite can roll out a feature that literally none of its userbase actually wants. the thing that's the kicker here: even something that doesn't have a physical production plant still impacts the environment.
and it all just feels like it's rolling out of control because like, you watch companies pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into a remake of a remake of something nobody wants anymore and you're like, not able to afford eggs anymore. and you tell the company that really what you want is a good story about survival and they say "okay so you mean a YA white protagonist has some kind of 'spicy' love triangle" and you're like - hey man i think you're misunderstanding the point of storytelling but they've already printed 76 versions of "city of blood and magic" and "queen of diamond rule" and spent literally millions of dollars on the movie "Candy Crush Killer: Coming to Eat You".
it's like being stuck in a room with a clown that keeps telling the same joke over and over but it's worse every time. and that would be fine but he keeps fucking charging you 6.99. and you keep being like "no, i know it made me laugh the first time, but that's because it was different and new" and the clown is just aggressively sitting there saying "well! plenty of people like my jokes! the reason you're bored of this is because maybe there's something wrong with you!"

I can't take this game man. I can't. it's a video game it shouldn't make me feel like my heart is about to give out.

My second playthrough of exocolonist was so funny likee
I was trying to get into a relationship with both Dys and Sym. But somehow messed up and didn't flirt enough with either. I also changed my mind halfway through and let Dys bomb the colony just to see what happens. And then let him become a gardener. And then I got into a relationship with Sym. And then I became governor and saved everyone.
I just find it funny to think about this through that timeline's Sol eyes like.
You have a crush on this guy since you were a kid.
And hey! If that's not working out you also have a crush on this hot alien you just met. You shoot your shot with both.
Then you just fucking randomly find out they're together after one of em bombed the colony you're planning to lead.
Your childhood crush turns into brain goop. You have a very emotional moment.
You think your romantic life is fucked.
Not even a month later you fuck the alien in a cave.
Then another month later you overthrow the government.
Then you falsify info for everyone on earth to think the planet exploded.
And at the end of the year you strike a deal with the consciousness that's been trying to kill you and save everyone you love.
I just know that version of Sol had years cut off their life just by the sheer stress of that one last gameplay year 😭😭😭
