It's a little bit wild how much of a swerve the Moralist political alignment quest in Disco Elysium is. For most of its length the game is dunking on centrism for being pathetic and ineffectual, and the endings of all the other political alignment quests are just goofy or sad, but then you do the centrism quest and it's like "political centrism might actually, literally be the mask of a cosmic evil that's physically devouring the world, and also you have to fail this quest on purpose or you get a non-standard game over". Like, tell us how you really feel!

oh wow the eldrich creatures from beyond the veil are the good guys this time? and they're perfectly comprehensible to humans? damn that's crazy. oh you called lovecraft a racist old bitch again? what a fresh and novel observation. congratulations for recognizing the bigotry inherent to much of the english literary canon, that completely justifies your incuriosity. here's a cookie 🍪

naturally the best works of cosmic horror are the ones that completely remove the horror. there is nothing in the universe that is unknown to us. we know everything we need to. the fear of our place in the cosmos was just a product of a more primitive age. god is in heaven and everything is normal on earth. we have reached the end of history and all that's left is to bask in our moral superiority. this is the essence of cosmic horror

one thing I would say in favor of reading the weird sisters as "brides" over a wife and two daughters is that this text overall is not really concerned with biological familial relationships, it's concerned with volitional bonds. none of our protagonists are blood related, but they all fall stupidly in love with each other in all the moods and tenses of the verb almost as soon as they meet, so I think it would be a more fitting foil if dracula maybe had that same kind of connection-by-choice with these three women hundreds of years ago and has just let it rot to disdain, coldness, and resentful obligation over time. he goes out to get food for them, but he has no qualms about treating them with physical violence or indefinitely leaving the country without them. this is a novel about polyamory and the count's love language is acts of disservice.

okay okay i can close some tabs i don't need this google image search of "pear trees"....well you never know actually
