so this must be what Poirot wld feel like if he were about to deliver his all-revealing speech in the library only to have one of the assembled guests leap up and shout TWAS I — I DID IT IN THE CONSERVATORY WITH A POTTED BROMELIAD AND YOU NEVER GUESSED!!
bc altho for the past months i have had no heart to participate in fandom bein as it were utterly disheartened by the petty vapid & above all spiteful turn that PR & indeed the whole of selfstyled social “justice” fandom has gone down
makin me not willing to even log in for months on end
the confirming coincidences have not stopped mounting up where i keep running over & into them
& all my MAAAAYBE?s turn out to be so right my hesitance is laughable
bc chris nolan turned the son into a daughter & stuffed a watch into the revised INTERSTELLAR script
& ridley scott stuck a mockery of the horse sacrifice into his inexplicable-except-as-parody EXODUS
& stephen moffat spent the whole of last season getting more & more overt slams at GDT to the point where i knew that elba showin up to talk abt relearnin to ride a motorbike for GHOST RIDER 2 while wearin red trainers wasnt a joke but a warning HMS LYDIA IS COMING ABOUT TO CROSS YR T — he wasnt just gunning for ridley scott but at the NuWho team bc they shot first & over again
& did it most explicitly by stealin the Jaeger pilot armour from Comic-con for Nightmare in Silver, but then went all-out hostile open fire in the s8 finale, when they mocked both Thor & PR in it
bc all of them are tryin like fuck to be the anti-Pterry — & succeedin tho its an own goal
& then on team resistance side charlie h went & took la muerte’s cloak from her hands & rode to his own king-horse sacrifice as a warrior jesus for modern america THE ONE YOU WANTED THE ONE WHO BEARS THE SWORD RIGHT PPL? if i had any more doubts that jax TELLER was stringer BELL in another incarnation & both of them evil mirrorverse versions of the eternal defender (& dominic west is just as much part of the game & has been all along as rinko kikuchi & jessica chastain now are)
but the proof will be tonight in the xmas special
that all these folks are acting in concert , even if some of them are on opposite sides but meanwhile watch ENGLISHMAN IN NYC and see the proof that elba & john hurt have been playin the same charas all along
ETA: no matter how many times team wallbuilder kills our heroes in effigy playin mr teatime in their love of empire & grimdark mundanity they have lost already - & partly by their own deeds!!
- a festive rendition in the style of a twee Christmas advert. Because why not.

[singing:]
You can bugger the bear, if you do it with care,
In the winter when he is asleep in his lair
Though I would not advise it, in spring or in fall,
But the hedgehog can never be buggered at all
[background: piano melody joins chords]
[speaking:]
Sugar pigs in little stockings. Glingle bells on the wind. Blood on the snow.
Whether you’re slaughtering livestock to see you through the winter, beheading the King of the Bean in the forest, or reallyhoping that the sun will rise again, why not celebrate Hogswatch in Ankh Morpork this year?
Ankh Morpork. Remember the true spirit of Hogswatch.

[singing:]
You can bugger the ox if you stand on a box,
And vulpologists say you can bugger the fox,
You can bugger the shrew, though it’s awfully small,
