I should really do a writeup on the way Marathon is so appealing in a traumaqueer way too. The disposability, the unavoidable violence of your existence and being embodied, how it differs from mech stuff, the entire backdrop of the doomed colonial project on Tau Ceti IV...

random thought because I saw some videos of weapons in the newer halo sequels in my youtube feed and one thing that really sets apart Marathon's art direction from so much contemporary sci-fi is the total lack of bullshit greebling on everything from the guns to the shells to misc items

im forever vindicated being one of the only people who was glazing psycho pass 3 when it was airing. yeah i get mixed opinions on the main characters but they grew on me and the way the narrative really intersected with so many of the core themes of the show and pushed them further was impeccable.

G is for Galene! A is for A Nymph! L is for Loving my job! E is for Elysium, the best city! N is for Nothing ever goes wrong! E is for Elysium, the best city! I wrote a poem for Isadora! She grunted which means she likes it!

Theory: The context collapse of the 21st century means many people read or consume media through a deeply personalised lens - everything is either about or for them specifically, so critical writing is experienced as confrontation

I also completely forgot the whole sequence in Psycho-Pass where one of the helmet men just beats a woman to death on the streets after tearing her clothes off while bystanders do nothing and if that wasn't the most uncomfortable thing in this show to watch as a trans woman well (/pos, though)
