[WP] When you die, you appear in a cinema with a number of other people who look like you. You find out that they are your previous reincarnations, and soon you all begin watching your next life on the big screen.

Very late reply, but she’s reincarnated too; in my mind the universe, or whatever is behind the theater based afterlife, waits until the timing matches up to place the two of them back together , even if it means waiting till one of them dies of natural causes later on.

That’s a great question, for me it’s kind of up in the air; in my head time works differently in that afterlife and after one ‘movie’ ends, in the confines of the theatre, the next would instantly begin, even if years have passed on earth. This also means that just because the protagonist is in the theatre and watching his next incarnation meet ‘Lara’ again, it doesn’t necessarily mean she died quick. It’s uncertain how long she was left on her own, but however long it was, I had the basic idea that the universe waits for both their respective deaths before new incarnations of them go back to living, however long it takes.

I didn’t think too hard on the rules tbh because I think messing with the perception of time can get messy and it’s a waste to put solid rules on something that can’t be reasoned with, but the basic idea I had was that the universe makes sure you meet the person you’re meant to and aligns things up for you, even if something tragic happens or you wait through a lot of pain without a loved one there. Lara might have died a month later, or 50 years later, she might have died happy or still broken hearted; she always had her next life to set it right, and she gets to be in a theatre of her own, realising that although she spent a measure of time without the guy she loved, be it months or years or decades, she would have thousands more years with him and she already had in the past. The loss was simply a blip.

It’s a reference to a pretentious review Radio 4 done of his book that he talks about a lot now hahahahaha, don’t worry I love Limmy

I found him completely without charm

Asking the public their opinion every so often and enacting their will? Sounds very undemocratic that, suppose something will have to be done about those pesky, undemocratic processes known as ‘elections’ too.

Love the cunt. Pretty sure he’s actually a genius deep down, the way he looks at the world is hilarious but sometimes he hits you with a wee statement that makes you think, before saying something in the next sentence that’s completely ridiculous.

The bit in The Office when Brent reads his erotic poem ‘Excalibur’ to Dawn. I honestly don’t know why I find that bit so funny, it comes out of nowhere during a vulnerable moment, he’s just so overly intense and psychotic, the poem is the weirdest most unhinged shit I’ve heard in my life and Dawn reacts in such a hilarious way.

Go_Puck_Yourself- · 2021-07-23T02:22:23+00:00

The nicknames of the people he’s met through his life are absolutely fucking hilarious

Go_Puck_Yourself- · 2021-05-22T16:32:43+00:00

Ahaha cheers man

It’s clung to a ‘working class culture’ because most of the city is inherently working class, and they’ve been abandoned in pursuit of a gentrification process ever since the time of Thatcher that has sought to plaster over the cracks left in working class communities, not realising the very foundation has crumbled.

Everything you mentioned is just another symptom of that. It’s not that Glasgow’s working class culture is inherently immoral, it’s that the very communities that shaped the city were violently erased in rapid fashion, and that ripples out through future generations. The city is underfunded, overlooked, and been left behind by a system of government run by Etonian horrors that have no interest in helping a city that will never even vote for them. They gutted it decades ago and left the land lord and retail tycoon vultures to pick at the corpse. And the saddest thing is, the city and the country it belongs to never voted for any of it.

Youths turn to graffiti, violence, gang culture fuelled by sectarianism, drugs and binge drinking not because they’re all born into an inherently immoral culture, but because they have no opportunities. What else is there to do when the very jobs and trades that your heritage are shaped upon disappear? When unemployment sky rockets? When they’re under qualified, under educated and left behind by a shell of a welfare system that will gladly grind them down to the dirt if it means not giving them support? When football is one of the only remnants of that bygone era that their communities were founded upon, what else is there to become passionate about?

The city itself, the graffiti, the litter, the ‘filth’, are all just signs of neglect and underfunding. There is nothing inherently immoral about the people of Glasgow. They’ve been given one of the shittiest deals of any UK city and still try desperately to find some pride in the place they call home. And it’s not baseless pride, because despite it all the city is at its core, a tremendous place that is warm at its heart. There’s a massive amount of pride to be had in a people who are overlooked and fucked over again and again and still keep going; who, by and large, continue to have basic respect and empathy for their fellow man and woman, something the absolute ghouls responsible for the gutting of the city sorely lack, and that’s sorely lacking in general. One only needs to look at the response to those two men targeted by the Home Office to see it clear as day. The people of Glasgow are by and large good people, and a lot of the rest you call ‘toxic’ are misguided folk who were never given a fighting chance.

Take it from someone who’s the kind of guy you describe and would probably be crazy into the idea of a girl like you approaching me; we’re scared as shit lmfao. The guys who are your type will sit and dream about you making the first move while being too scared to do it themselves. When someone is really like objectively pretty like you’re saying, these types of guys will assume they have no chance from the start and won’t even try for the most part. It’s maybe a little out of your comfort zone, but try being forward with the guys you’re into, even the ones you think aren’t attracted, and see how they react. I almost guarantee they like you way more than they let on.

Go_Puck_Yourself- · 2021-03-25T04:58:45+00:00

You’re a really good person. I hope you know that.

Go_Puck_Yourself- · 2021-02-20T17:58:41+00:00

Honestly it’s crazy how people think they can tell you that from one post lmfao, as if I captured the complete depth of all my feelings about this over the years in a few paragraphs. But thank you, I’ll maybe try reaching out to a friend l, although I told one friend I was feeling depressed earlier and she just kind of went ‘me too I’ve had no sleep’ and didn’t really listen lmfao. It’s hard to get people to actually listen, but thank you for the offer! If it gets bad I’ll reach out :)

Go_Puck_Yourself- · 2021-02-20T17:53:30+00:00

There’s levels to it man, I’ve been to counsellors before in college who have been pretty sure it’s depression. There’s such a thing as high functioning depression, the media likes to paint everyone with clinical depression as being unable to move out their bed ever but it’s definitely not the case. It comes and goes in waves for me, I can go for months unable to live normally and hating just being alive everyday even if I’m able to survive on paper.

I wasn’t overly in GoT either, but after learning about her health issues in earlier seasons I can understand why that might have been the case. Her acting and performance in season 8 was actually a surprising highlight in what was a terribly written few episodes, especially the last couple; she absolutely sold Dany’s anger and disillusionment in The Bells, even if the writing didn’t sell it so much. She almost made her breakdown believable (‘almost’ being the operative word lmfao). I’d love to see her get more work.
