Honestly the bit when Wallace tried to mind control a rabbit and then ended up being turned into a rabbit monster was like the realest bit of autism representation I've seen.

People who don't like it when ppl ship the emh guys like
Evan x Jeff, or Evan x Vinnie, or Jeff x Vinnie, or whatever bc of the fairmount iteration and how they were technically "brothers" (They we're all adopted at ages old enough to know they weren't actually family too. AND OBVIOUSLY, THIS GOES WITHOUT SAYING: DONT SHIP THE KIDS?? that's weird)
ARE WE FORGETTING THAT?? CORENTHAL ADOPTED STEPH TOO???
Evan and Steph were WAY closer in that iteration too??? BUT ?? IT'S NOT WEIRD TO LOVE THEIR RELATIONSHIP??
like, genuinely, I'm confused 😭😭 ?? are y'all just hating bc it's mlm??? OR DO YOU GUYS GENUINELY FORGET THAT STEPH IS APART OF THAT TOO??
If it would be weird to ship the guys ,,, it should be weird to ship Evan and Steph?? but it's NOT bc they're literally TOGETHER.
Why do the gay guys gotta be the ones getting judged ⁉️
it's not like they have any memory at all of the iteration, or that they're related by blood AT ALL.

the one thing i feel pretty certain about for this episode is that america will not decide the election. a decision will be made, a president will be elected, but america will not be the deciding factor.
succession can’t mimic 2016 or 2020 point blank, that would be boring and have nothing to say. it can’t try to outdo trump because it’ll go too whacky and fall flat like veep’s last season (sorry conheads, no way he’s winning). but what it CAN do is illustrate the immensely corrupt, often arbitrary, and hugely influential nature of news media and conglomerations on political processes. i think probably jimenez will be in the lead, then atn/waystar does something to, i don’t know, discount votes or cast suspicion on jimenez or call the election for mencken early, and the tide will shift, even though the votes are already in. the votes don’t actually matter. the actual result doesn’t actually matter. that’s the power logan (and as an extension, billionaires and CEOs in general) hold. shiv says it herself to logan in s4e2: “just cause you say it’s true doesn’t make it true. everyone just fucking agrees with you and believes you, so it becomes true and then you can turn around and say like, 'oh, you see? see? i was right.'” but it doesn’t matter that logan’s “a human fucking gaslight,” everything he says comes true anyways. not because he was right, but because that’s how it works. he says things and then they happen, regardless of what the truth is or what should actually come to pass. that’s been one of the key throughlines since the very first episode of the entire show when, in response to kendall calling logan out of touch because times are changing and logan isn't changing with them, logan hisses that everyone always says you’re wrong until you do it and prove you were right: “you make your own reality.” you can't miss the bus if you're the one driving it. the election, the votes, the political process? none of that matters. it was always going to come down to the roys and their ilk (allies or enemies, just the top 1%) — that was the whole point of “what it takes” (the mencken episode) last season, after all.
i’ve seen lots of theories about what america will choose and how the candidates will respond and all that and i just don’t think that’s the show’s focus; i think the whole point is to demonstrate the lack of agency, the illusion of democracy. because, i mean, we’ve already seen the fall of democracy via fascist election and fascist election-denial, both in real life and in the countless (usually mid) satires created afterwards. it would be disappointing to see succession use the election to reiterate that same point of 'ohhh alt-right ahhhhh!!!' i don’t think it’ll be about ‘fascism’ at all — at least, not ‘trump-y’ fascism. it’ll be about fascism in the broader sense, the kind that doesn't sport a KKK hood (even when it keeps one tucked away in the attic). it's the fascism that every single roy (very much including shiv and kendall) aid and abet -- the fascism that so many succession fans don't seem to regard as fascism, despite it quite literally being the definition of fascism. trump wasn’t the entrance of fascism into our political process. he wasn’t the lone sign of the failing of american democracy. democracy in america has long been illusory, trump just made it more blatantly evident with his particular brand of hate-speech-ridden masculinist in-your-face fascism.
so i think that’s what this episode will hopefully focus on — america will not decide. corporations, news media, and the roys will. thus, the president will most likely become president not because the country supports his policies the most, but because he’s likely to agree to help block a business deal for a major media empire, and the other candidate is unlikely to. and this will likely come to pass due to said major media empire's interference and influence: they create their own reality. they say it, and everyone agrees with them and believes them, so it becomes true.

Rewatching Yugioh after 20 years is fucking wild. Just watched Kaiba refer to Yugi’s friends as “the Nerd Herd” (hilarious), tell Yugi to “spare me the drama” despite being THE most dramatic character in the whole show, and then immediately prove that by conjuring a hologram of the fucking Roman coliseum for them to play MTG in, complete with screaming toga-clad fans chanting his name. This all happened within like 3 minutes. I mean i know we know why he’s like this but. why is he like this

hi jake!!! your hair looks amazing!!!! you like guns, so i've heard? what's your favourite if i may ask? ↄ0:
JAKE: I appreciate the compliment! I think its mostly genetics, and trimming the ends when i can. Grandma used to cut it better than i ever could, so it ends up longer than what might be typical.
JAKE: Anyway! I love a good handgun. The amt automag II is a classic, one that grandma left me, even!

you know, one thing that's funny to me about jin guangyao
some people hate him because of their experiences being emotionally abused
while other people love him for the same reason
like i've seen people say they hate him because he reminds them of their manipulative ex, and i've seen one person say they're unable to like him ever since his faked suicide attempt in the book because they've had threats of suicide used against them before
and i can understand that perspective. not everyone is obligated to like jgy and sometimes a character vibes wrong with you
but personally one of the reasons i like him is i've had a lot of experience with constantly being put down and degraded and being expected to grin and bear it, and if i ever stand up for myself suddenly i'm the terrible person in the situation. and maybe i just find it kinda cathartic that he snapped and killed people about it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Alan Wake 2 (the game was a banger and y'all were really chill about it holy moly respect):
Spiderman 2 (some of you are lovely people with normal reactions but dear lord twitter is on fire):
TotK (I'm sorry but this year just had a lot of bangers):
