The sheer number of posts blaming Ford for the way Filbrick treated Stan makes my eye twitch so. bad.
What a way to make it the child's responsibility for how their parents treat them and their siblings. Like, they know that Ford ALSO grew up in an abusive environment and was abused too, right?? Apparently not oml
Don't even get me started on the science fair incident. Like, he had every right to be mad, and it wasn't Ford that threw Stan out. Blaming a child for not standing up to their abusive parents for their sibling seems to be rampant in the Gravity Falls fandom these days
Okay I want more thoughts on the music played in the QSMP teaser.
The first song played is Pachelbel's Canon (Canon in D, P 37). Doesn't seem to have much of a story to it? But I think the main reason it was used is that it's a popular song played at weddings and, the more importantly, funerals.
The second song is from Mozart's Requiem Mass- Lacrimosa. It was written not long before Mozart died, and it literally translates from Latin as "Weeping" or "Tearful". Requiem Mass is just a big piece about death and grief. It's just another funeral song.
SOOOO what does that mean?? Is this quackity's funeral, the federation's, or the island's?? I have so many thoughts that I don't know how to put into words, but if you have ideas, that would be awesome.
oooooh that definitely fits with the whole creepy vibe that's going on in the video
Weeping, tearful and funeral...
To be honest, not really an idea of what to make of that. The only connection I could draw would be the poem which is spoken, which goes on and on and on about how that 'creature' is eating it's own heart and destroying itself.
The funeral part also stands in direct contrast to the Morse, which says things like 'I'm coming back' and the flashing text which literally says 'not over.' To lean completely out of the window, I would say that... the easily visible surrenders being alone, being scared and also maybe that the Federation is no longer (the Federation buildings are completely empty), but the stuff beneath the surface clearly says that someone is planning a comeback.
That way, the music fits with the whole dying, self-destruction theme which is shown through the stuff you can easily see without decrypting morse and stuf. Maybe someone destroyed themselves and now it's their funeral, but actually they're coming back. But who? The players, the Federation? I don't know, but maybe we'll see in the future
