psycholonials ch 3 spoilers
my partner quiet has slept through our reading sessions and only popped in for about the last half of this chapter. without any context, they have become fascinated by Percy. @Paradox described him as, i think "Harry Anderson Egbert ass"?

i am really hells of pumped to see how the anti stuff intersects with the cop killing stuff.
I am looking forward to seeing how it intersects with the real world evil of cops in the context of 2020, but am also wary because that is a VERY racially based topic and hussie has a pretty rough history with racism.

Jade: "I don't think [Percy] knows anything. I think when Z made out with him she dementor kissed him and sucked out his soul."
psycholonials ch 5 disk horse
i stepped into the disk horse mines as it is one of my favored methods of self harm. i think there's definitely room for criticism on the lines of z's being victimized in early 2020 by police violence while not being black, and hussie's use of #FFFFFF character models in this context certainly is less than ideal
but "it's racist because clowns derive from minstrel shows" really strikes me as very incorrect for a number of reasons

psycholonials ch 6 hypothetical disk horse
have the haters pivoted yet to saying that Z being half Asian while leading an anti American revolution is promoting sinophobia
psycholonials ch 7 speculation
no choice until chapter 9 Assumes that the piece is going to play some trick; that we can go back and choose in the past scenarios, or that there's a bigger thing to follow, or that by choosing, Z gets to go untouched by the narrative and it ends. it's reasonable to assume!
but if we assume that the story is self contained, has no time travel? this is the last real chance for a choice, I think. haven't the interludes all been at the start of even chapters?
psycholonials ch 7 speculation
I would hold back moral judgment if Z's enemies list only contained political/power enemies. but the kill order will apply to a lot of people who really suck and should probably be hurt but who, fundamentally, she has personal beef with, rather than actually being obstacles at this stage

i like to occasionally self harm by seeing what Twitter thinks of psycholonials. I don't actually see at much hate as I would expect! maybe the haters are spelling it psych*lonials or something tho.
but
i did see the take "Z could've just been a stable anarchist clown"
have these gentlethems ever seen a revolution?
psycholonials ch 7 IDE/Theory
@SophiaSurname honestly at this point i'm like. half convinced z is actually losing her mind at this rate. because riotus has had jack shit to say about the hallucinations she's been having of her parents
psycholonials ch 7 IDE/Theory
@ArtemisRubey I wouldn't be surprised!
my working theory is that her parents are actually working against Riotus's intentions; we dont' know who the narrator during the interludes is, prompting her to try to make choices, only that they say "which is why i love you, Zhen" in i think the second interlude? Using her deadname sticks out like a sore thumb. I'm not entirely sure how to justify this further beyond *vague gestures*
psycholonials ch 7 IDE/Theory
@ArtemisRubey basically i think riotus doesn't know about her parents
psycholonials ch 7 and whistles: the starlight calliope
@SophiaSurname ...fucking hell gumblin looks like riotus now that i think of it
psycholonials ch 7 and whistles: the starlight calliope
@ArtemisRubey I think that you can see some of the bones of these ideas in whistles and I'm really curious to see what they are

@SophiaSurname i am personally losing my shit that people on tumblr are having better reactions to psycholonials than people on twitter. complete role reversal
