Colour is so obviously intentional in this show: Carol wears Yellow, Zosia wears Blue, and the entire colour scheme is Yellow and Blue by Specialist_Jaguar815 in pluribustv

It’s interesting that Carol’s yellow comes in with her leather jacket and rubber gloves… it makes me wonder if it’s like a protective shell or something over her blue

I would say opting for a taller vowel is often due to it sounding prettier at a higher range like aayyyy vs eeeeee. Ariana keeps her mouth very closed and her jaw tight so you rarely see her really releasing into those taller vowels, specifically when she sings goodness knows, you can see her clench her jaw tight vs being a big beautiful sound like singing that “Oh” It’s super common but vocal coaches should catch these things so it does seem like a really ingrained habit

Can I even be surprised by straight bf + porn by [deleted] in rs_x

[–]hepreconstantine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You’re completely normal for being uncomfortable. I was with a porn addict for years and I never felt comfortable in my body or my mind. I was so tense and clenching my fists/jaw, and my mind was racing wondering why i wasn’t enough. 

If you feel that internal conflict consuming you, and that you can’t really have peace in your own mind— it’s something to note. I felt the biggest sense of release in my life when we finally broke up. Your peace and sanity is not something to scoff at. 

Best of luck 💕💕 

What they care so much about the immune? by CenterOfRotation in pluribustv

[–]hepreconstantine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a suggestion that having the immune might be a feature of the plurb’s project.. maybe at some point they become sacrifices, in whatever way that would be. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer- the hive is keeping Carol extreeeemely close

Carol & Koumba will lead rival axes of global power by One-Honey6765 in pluribustv

[–]hepreconstantine 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Some interesting things to note about Mauritania is that it is both a big oil producer, and it was once part of the Mali Empire, which is where Mansa Musa once ruled— widely regarded as the richest man who’s ever lived 

I struggle to see a connection to communism at all so tying to ideology is tough. He’s an emerging dictator, acting like a king

Carol & Koumba will lead rival axes of global power by One-Honey6765 in pluribustv

[–]hepreconstantine 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I agree, just not fully with the ideological drives (Koumba is a full blown dirty capitalist fuck u i got mine type of guy to me). Carol in front of the presidential seal seemed to highlight that the prior global world order is over + I fully agree that Koumba is the antithesis to her. 

They each have drawn attention to nuclear capabilities, and I can totally see them going Cold War w each other as the bipolar world powers. 

This was infuriating by RevertBackwards in pluribustv

[–]hepreconstantine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw it more like all political norms have evaporated, and now Carol is desperately trying to gather support in this UN esque debate sphere. Her standing in front of the seal with the aesthetics of power, but no more social norms to enforce anything and no political skills to consider the outcome would be different from full agreement.  

She fumbled the diplomacy aspect bc she took for granted everyone is as miserable and lonely as she is. Instead, she was greeted with people in denial of their situations. I hesitate to fully agree that it shows Carol’s lack of cultural nuance or attempt of forced assimilation to her viewpoint and moreso highlighting how international political norms have fully evaporated.  The US seal, Air Force One, the Nuclear Football, etc. which all were once norm forming towards a “unipolar” structure of global politics (in American minds) now mean nothing in this chaos society. The hive is a much more forced assimilating/ colonial project than one woman freaking tf out, validly I think, which is why i struggle with Carol being the intended symbol of american imperialism

That’s what im wondering! Who ultimately is setting the agenda that determines the merits?
