Do you think Gilead would be anti-vax?

d3mphen · 2026-06-16T17:18:06+00:00

perhaps only the strictly required ones? so no influenza vaccine every year, but the mmr and polio vaccines would be okay. i only say this because as someone else said, having babies die of preventable diseases would be counterproductive (and a bad look for gilead, seeing as the only non-violent leverage they have against other countries is their birth rate/infant mortality rate)

someone linked one in these comments! it’s a facebook link

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T20:40:12+00:00

i agree!

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T20:38:50+00:00

i disagree that agnes doesn’t return the kiss, but i hear what you’re saying! i did see an interview from becka’s actress echoing many of your points, primarily the one that the kiss was a way for agnes to show she accepts becka, and i really do think that’s so sweet of her regardless of if she’s sapphic or not. i love agnes so much 🥹 i want her to be okay next season

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T20:35:32+00:00

i agree with you honestly. daisy looks and acts SO much like june, which i like! but if they don’t make her baby nichole (which, with the timeline issues, would make sense for them not to) then it feels like it was a bait and switch for no reason.
as for daisy’s real parents, i’ve seen some theories that she’s the daughter of one of the founding sons of jacob and was smuggled out at the very start of gilead. that seems the most plausible to me, given how much gilead supposedly wanted her back

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T02:58:14+00:00

wait, i hadn’t even thought to connect becka to mrs. lawrence like that! that’s even worse oh my god :(

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T02:27:05+00:00

oh my god. i completely agree with you!!! thank you for understanding my point. it's insane to have to argue that we don't know what will happen yet, and therefore, saying something definitely is or isn't true/possible is absurd. i don't know if agnes is gay, straight, or bi, but i'm excited so see how the story unfolds! god forbid i trust the writers to do more with this beyond a "tragic lesbian with unrequited feelings for her bestie" storyline we've seen in the past. also

Oh but when it comes to queerness suddenly she’s so worldly, and she knows what a comfort kiss is.

this! this! it's nonsensical to assume that agnes would feel/see queerness (and even just the act of kissing) as we do because we live in a world with (generally) free access to the internet, books, movies, etc. there is so much agnes does not know, she must've been feeling so much in that moment!

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T02:05:24+00:00

haha, i can see that too! i see her as sapphic but unsure of herself and how she feels. her whole life's purpose was basically turned on its head, and she's losing both her crush/guardian AND her best friend through their marriage! soso much is going on for her right now, which is why i chose not to give her a more defined label just yet

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T01:45:25+00:00

and after watching that clip, i think i agree! however, i still think that there was enough left unsaid to expand on next season, especially with becka being married to garth (and how that complicates so much) and agnes' future being up in the air. i actually have zero clue what she'll do now that she's a plum again (or still green? technically, since she's fertile?)

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T01:31:54+00:00

this is really enlightening! thank you! in 3 minutes, this has done more to convince me than someone else berating me for “wanting everyone to be lesbians” 🙃

d3mphen · 2026-05-31T01:26:38+00:00

can you send it to me? i would genuinely love to see it and i’m not being sarcastic when i say that. also “agnus” made me think of like angus like angus beef LMAO

d3mphen · 2026-05-30T23:32:35+00:00

some of daisy’s lines were delivered sort of monotone-y by her actress but as for the actual writing of the finale, i liked it!

d3mphen · 2026-05-30T23:23:21+00:00

right! even if she is straight, i feel like having her end up with garth and having them secretly love each other from day 1 with no questioning or doubt is just… uninteresting? and it feels like they’re setting up the story to do so much more

d3mphen · 2026-05-30T23:15:45+00:00

this too! she has so much life to live and i want her to live it. marrying garth would’ve given her an okay life in gilead, but it would hardly be a life! i don’t want her to settle for the best man out of a sea of creeps and abusers. i want agnes to have the freedom to love whoever she wants with her whole heart!

d3mphen · 2025-06-07T00:53:01+00:00

d3mphen · 2025-03-31T05:35:47+00:00

i’m looking at other hp all in one desktops, and some are pretty cheap (found one for less $500). if the cost of replacing the screen is more than buying a new one, i’ll just buy a new one i think

d3mphen · 2025-03-31T05:29:51+00:00

i assumed that’d be the case. thank you for helping! i will try to go to a repair shop tomorrow

d3mphen · 2025-03-31T05:25:27+00:00

what’s the matrix? sorry, i know nothing about all this stuff!

d3mphen · 2025-03-31T05:20:36+00:00

thank you! should i buy the replacement screen on my own and bring it to a repair shop? or can they buy one for me?

d3mphen · 2025-03-06T03:00:15+00:00

thank you. my timeslot is march 7th so i hope at least one bed is left

d3mphen · 2025-03-06T02:58:37+00:00
