YELLOWJACKETS | Season 3, Episode 10, “Full Circle”
i love how s3 finale completely flips our perspective on the hunt from the pilot. half of the girls weren’t even hunting. van standing over the pit seemed so menacing in the pilot but now it’s just heartbreaking. mari being pit girl, not because the wilderness chose but because shauna chose. mari was only wearing a nightdress so she could use her clothes as a decoy. and turns out mari was a decoy while the others tried to get rescue. misty removing her mask and smiling not because they caught mari but because they’re getting rescued and there’s nothing shauna can do about it. the hair on the antler queen costume wasn’t a collection of various victims’ hair, it was just mari’s. this whole time we thought it was all the girls collectively giving in to the hunt and the wildness of it, but really it was just shauna, along with lottie and tai. none of them wanted to do a hunt, none of them wanted mari to be chosen.
submissive in the way a livestock guardian dog is submissive to the sheep it kills wolves for
love how much attention this post is getting i knew the gay people in my phone would understand me. btw here's the picture that inspired me to make this post in the first place:
Some of you fuckers think about gender identity the way we taxonomize animal species instead of as a thing people do to express themselves.
the most annoying people are people who don't understand storytelling. they be like "oooo how convenient that this thing happened to the main character in the very beginning". yeah no shit. that's why the story begins here
“Are you saying that Jesus isn’t fully man” he’s literally not. He’s half deity. Why did you word it like that?
“Jesus was fully human and fully divine” is conventionally accepted doctrine. It’s called the hypostatic union. It’s in the Athanasian creed.
Sounds like wormnoodless is recapitulating Eutychianism (Christ exists in one nature and of two), which was rejected by the Fourth Ecumenical Council in 451, instead adopting Dyophysitism (Jesus Christ is one person of one substance and one hypostasis, with two distinct, inseparable natures: divine and human), which is still the main belief of most major denominations.
Sorry, wormnoodless, you’re a heretic.
@apocrypals, do I have it (mostly) right?
Correct
Anything other than “fully God, fully man” is heretical
Like yes, Kelvin is arrogant and self-righteous but god rewatching the tree house scene and just how excited he is talking to Keefe about the round table discussion and getting nominated. I think Kelvin genuinely enjoyed leading the youth program but there was an inherent barrier that didn’t allow him be his complete self at church as a youth pastor. I also think it represented this immaturity for him character-wise, his reluctance to grow up and accept who he is as an adult, as a whole person. So growing into this Prism role is important as is the acceptance he’s received from his family - notably Eli and from the church, gaining a whole new group of followers, of people who want to listen to him, who think he has something worthwhile to say, who aren’t children or teens going to youth programming bc their parents probably told them they had to. And perhaps most importantly, these new followers are like him, they are visibly queer and Kelvin has taken it upon himself to be their advocate in the church and in Christianity as a whole.
And every time Kelvin talks to Keefe while he does put up a bit of an overconfident front, he is genuine and sincere in his excitement and glee. This is important to him, this is something he’s probably wanted for a very long time that he didn’t think he’d ever get or be allowed to have. I also think Kelvin is an insecure man at the heart of it and he does plenty of showboating in front of Keefe to mask that. Keefe is the person that Kelvin is the most vulnerable with when he reaches a breaking point but a lot of time their interactions involve some level of mask on Kelvin’s part. Kelvin doesn’t want Keefe to see any lapse in his confidence, in his ability to lead, and when that lapse does occur Kelvin has pushed Keefe away.
Plus the flashbacks to Kelvin as a scared anxious child. It’ll be interesting to see what the next episode brings and what more insight we get into Kelvin’s psyche and childhood. It really is heartbreaking to see the juxtaposition of Kelvin in his treehouse - his safe space to Kelvin having a panic attack on live television after being attacked and publicly humiliated.
man i really don't think so but okay i guess
