There’s a version of this conversation that doesn’t come from what’s being shown, but from what isn’t. The absence of something we’ve gotten used to. The shift in patterns. The kind of consistency that once felt easy to follow suddenly feeling less clear. And when that happens, it’s very easy to read it as something being off, or even something being broken. We forget that it could also mean privacy is being pushed.

A lot of that comes from how quickly we attach meaning to change. When something feels steady, we learn how to read it. We get comfortable with it. So when that steadiness shifts, even slightly, it doesn’t just feel different it feels like something is missing. And from what I’ve observed, that’s usually where interpretation fills the gap. Not necessarily because anything definitive has happened, but because the absence itself creates space for people to try to explain it.

And sometimes, there isn’t anything concrete to point to just silence; and that silence can create the feeling that something is missing, when in reality it can simply mean we don’t have the same level of visibility we once did. And when visibility changes, so does the way patterns are perceived. What once felt consistent can start to feel unclear, not because it’s gone, but because it’s no longer being seen in the same way.

And I think that’s where the understanding becomes harder to sit with. Because what feels like something being broken can also just be something becoming less visible. And those two things don’t always mean the same thing. Sometimes, the hardest part isn’t what’s changed it’s not knowing how to read what’s still there. Privacy should only have one meaning, yet we keep seeing it try to turn it into something else, and that’s where it becomes exhausting.

I think we get tired, we want to see that happy ending. Not just because we may be at the end of a visible Polin in the seasons to come in Bridgerton but we care about Luke and Nicola.

We want what’s best for them, we understand privacy and comfort for them. But at what price? Their careers? We get tortured by seeing what has been put out lately… they look tired, not themselves. This narrative can’t be what they want to project, we’ve seen their numbers. We have seen fan reactions… it feels like protection at this point. It better be worth it at the end of the day. I know why I am here, I’m not leaving anytime soon. I just get a little chaotic…

So excuse my messy self. I may just drop a thought, picture or ask a question - I’m okay - I promise, just like most of you - tired. We want to see them happy, just doesn’t feel like what we see is genuine, we saw genuine on the WT.

Silence can mean privacy and protection, just remember that as we go into this weekend. What we see may not be the full story so hold onto our patterns and observational notes… they may come in handy.

Vince is going to destroy me at some point I just know it

Me: Ok brain, can we be normal about this? Because I would appreciate it if we can be normal about something related to TMBG.

Coworker: Is the theme song the same?

My brain: !

Me:

NO! And I hate whoever made that decision!

But she’s gone now, so where all you filthy girls at? Lmao!!

Bring it, nonnie.

After the elevator we just collectively went "ya it's Jesus or Aziraphale" and then we all went still, realising there's gonna be more Clues, cuz no way this is the end.

And now we wait for GOprime to throw another scrap of meat down into the well. We're still here. We're just anticipating
