I Was Put On This Earth To Listen To Kmfdm

that moment when silver points out that every person who'd gotten somewhat closer to flint than usual eventually ended up dead just as well reminds us of the presence of the narrative and how characters feel it too. we look at those events and figure it's scripted, while the characters, we think, will just take it as something happening in the present without noticing any particular connections. they just tend to have a different perspective.

after miranda's death i had a firm idea about this connection being out there but then silver just. literally said it. and on one hand it was nothing – he's far from dumb, so of course he noticed it – but then it just felt so surreal and almost appropriating the audience's space. you just don't expect it.

a similar thought came over my mind in the scene where silver tells billy that flint's emotions created the storm. he literally just found a connection which was supposed to be a metaphor for us, the audience, and we were supposed to take the storm in as the very fitting background for such a dramatic scene but silver just took the metaphor literally, also because it was not meant for him.

this is a genius show

crowley barely showed up on screen and already called the winchesters 'hotty boys' and kissed a man

one thing I have loved about black sails since I first watched it is the fact that it doesn’t villainise anger. it doesn’t tell you that, without this devouring anger, a character would be thriving. It shows us anger being destructive, often through Anne, it shows us anger being infectious, like a fire that catches and cannot be put out, but most importantly it shows us anger as integral. It is at the centre of the struggle against empire, it is at the centre of Flint. He is not angry in spite of all his morality, he is angry because of it. He is angry because how else is he supposed to feel in the face of absolute injustice??

The show rejects the notion of anger as inherently immoral. I saw someone say that it shows us anger as the extension of love, rather than the antithesis of it. I think this is spot on. It shows us anger as born from the ashes of loss, and stoked in opposition to the forces that caused it. go anger!!!

Flint is angry because anger is the only emotion powerful enough to pull him up from his knees time and time again, and give him the tools to fight for what he believes in.

It's honestly so legendary how Danvers and Navarro both have men in their lives who genuinely care about them and their well-being but they're both like no no I need to self destruct and go have gay angst with my coworker/frenemy/narrative foil
