i just had a dream that rick sanchez died and in his obituary it turned out his full name was Charlin and everybody was too busy being like "what the fuck kind of name is charlin" to care that he died

Another post I love too much not to repost :)
Pondering on the overall arc of Rick and Morty again. In the past, I’ve said that the point of Rick and Morty is that everything matters, way too much. (At least, there’s an argument to be made there about Rick’s character progression.)
Rick was backed into a philosophical corner by his experience of what it means to be alive. If everything matters, that means that what happened to him actually had consequences on who he is. If, somehow, he can find confirmation that nothing matters, instead— that there are no real consequences and he’s one of the elite few to understand the significance of cosmic insignificance— then he mourns for nothing. Nothing that happened to him and nothing that was taken away from him mattered.
It’s the opposing vice of ‘what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.’ The application of value to trauma is equally as invalid and toxic as removing it entirely. I don’t know about you, but what happened to me didn’t make me stronger, and I loathe hearing that from people. It made me who I am, sure, but I can appreciate that I have my good qualities in spite of what I’ve been through— in spite of those who tried to take them away from me. Those people and experiences don’t deserve credit for anything I’ve become. There is no positive spin on the negative impact of trauma. It was negative, and we keep on going. The truth is, on some level, Rick is broken— and without either nihilism or application of a metric of ‘worth’ to his trauma, he would have to worry that he’ll be broken forever.
Unfortunately, the downside of nihilism comes from the concept that, if nothing that broke you ever mattered, then no effort to heal those wounds would matter. Therefore, nothing Rick does to other people would matter, and nothing he could do to right those wrongs would, either. That is his biggest character flaw. This is what his development has been confronting.
This is why I find it more likely that the resolution to Rick’s moral issues will round out at absurdism. If nothing matters, then EVERYTHING matters, because you have to enjoy and protect what matters to you. If the universe creates infinite idiots just to eat them, then you might as well enjoy the ride instead of trying fight it until you inevitably get thrown off. Maybe the point of life isn’t to deny that our trauma is substantial, or even convince ourselves of its worth. Instead, maybe the point is to acknowledge what we still have when we get to the end of the line despite every curve ball the universe tried to throw at us. It made us, it will eat us, and our only way to give it the metaphorical middle finger is to ensure that our lives will mean something in spite of our cosmic insignificance. If we are meaningful in a meaningless existence, then what does that say about our power over the infinite? If we value fostering our positive traits instead of punishing them for their lack of value, then what does that say about our value on our own, as we are, both unchanged and changed by the insignificance life itself represents?
Maybe it’s special for Rick to be alive (for Rick to love; for Rick to fail and succeed) simply because of how not special those experiences are.
At the end of the day, being 'replaceable' is what makes things special, not the other way around. We get to choose to care, and that's terrifyingly beautiful.
And on another note make it so I can block someone from seeing my account but still allow me to interact with them Make that a possibility plz and thank u
modern social media should stop offering "sync with your phone contacts to follow them" options and start offering "block all your phone contacts so they never see your account" options
Whenever I see a post about Rick and Morty and it makes me scream into my pillow I repost it
sorry for still not being over this second long shot after 7 months (holy shit, unmortricken was 7 months ago) but it's literally the gayest shit i've ever seen like c'mon COME ON BRO
they were going in for a punch at the same time but quite literally became stuck together because they got too close. their arms weren't even opened up or anything, their cybernetics tore through skin and sleeves to get tangled up in each other. the way this only happens because they're both ricks. they get their wires crossed because they're too similar. so similar their own bodies can't tell the difference, automatically trying to attach them like they're each other's lost limb.
i think i hauve covid
You ruined a perfectly hot middle aged man by giving him abs
I'm like 99% sure that's what the creators were going for. They wanted the attraction of that yt male nt dude bro reddit incel audience who can look at Rick and project their childish behavior as this badass nonchalant attitude through him.
But just queer enough that the queer audience can get something out of it. kind of reminds me of Deadpool in that way. Like yes he's queer but it's never explicit.
honestly im never gonna get over the fact that a tv show came out where the titular characters are a hispanic pansexual autistic man and his dubiously straight but definitely neurodivergent grandson, and it became a massive pop cultural phenomenon while garnering a fanbase largely made up of anti sjw reddit ass men. it isn't as bad as it used to be and i reckon they were always the loud minority, but like isn't that fucking bizarre? the amount of racism homophobia and ableism that's come from people who worship rick sanchez for being a genius asshole boggles the mind.
not to be a dirty commie or anything but i don't think any one person should have enough money to solve world hunger and then get to decide not to
