It turns out that wealth is not some inherently and magically corruptive force and all the massive blowhard idiots with way more money than sense are just that callous and cruel, and pretend its the only way that they could possibly have any choice but to act.

Because advertisers love to use tits in their ads because sex sells. But any other kind of sensuality makes thek feel weird and uncomfortable, because they are babies, and thus wish them gone. And we currently live oj an internet ruled by babies, the biggest babies, marketers.

As you approach the upper atmosphere, friction would become increasingly harder to maintain, resulting in an exponential loss of thrust forward. I coild be- completely wrong though.

So, not a physics person, but, I believe (among other things) a big issue would be with the car itself. Namely, rockets utilize explosive combustive force to launch themselves upwards. While cars utilize a combustion engine, it primarily relies on friction against the ground to propel itself.

Feels a bit like that yeah. My read was always that its a fucked up, cynical read of earth, with the exception of one mad scientist going around making progress on stuff

Is through a simple idea.

Now, i definitely don't know about part 9 a lot. But that design? That idea? It screams to me, the main villain that would be in conversation with parts 7 and 8. Deconstruction. The very idea of working everything down to its absolute bare minimum. The idea that the best way to view a complex world

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
And so it makes sense that they put Jotaro, Kira, and Josuke together for part 8's Jojo. Because all 3 of those men, for better or worse, agreed that fate, and luck, could be overcome. And the idea of random, odd misfortune can be defeated, through isolating the randomness. Atomization.

Person. It is the truth that believing in a cruel world is always nothing more than a justification. Now, i have not read all of oart 8 yet. But it seems quite obvious that the villain's stand, wonder of U, has a a heavy focus on the idea of calamity, or in other words, random misfortune.

Diego. DIO makes it to a better world, and is faced with the stark, horrifying reality that his choices were always his own in the form of Diego. A man who is him, but made different choices. Picked a different path, and even while holding the same instincts and desires as DIO. Chose to be a better

And so at its most desperate, D4 shows its truest, bluntest colors. What is a series of closed systems, but just a cloak for the world to hide behind. That core idea of a cruel, inevitable world. One that seems almost- undefeatable. That is undefeatable. Except for one thing.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Johnny, and his spiral, instead says, that the world is not a series of closed systems. But instead- a single, open system. Everything is connected. There is no 'first.' There is just the choices you makez and how they spiral forward. You don't have to be cruel to be kind. When life is open.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
And valentine makes his philosophy extremely blunt in both his dinner cloth speech, and his stand. The world is a series of closed systems. What makes good and what makes evil is who acts first. Everything is context based, so its all a matter of perspective.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Part 7, gets to wipe the board, and says 'with what we've learned, lets revisit some very old questions.' As we see the story of Johnny, and Valentine, and in a new workd, where one can be both selfless and selfish. Where self improvement can be done without judgement, what defines good and evil.

And, we see pucci's desired fate instead be given to Joylne, the one who fought for a better fate by choosing to change herself. She always had the potential to improve. To better herself. And without the judgement of hypocritical perfection. She could become that.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
He hopes for a perfect one. But in the end, what he doesn't recognize, is a better world doesn't include him. In a better world, Pucci, is the one who doesn't exist. Because a man who declares himself the sole arbiter of good and evil is the first thing that must go to make a better world.
100
Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
While Pucci's stand changes who someone is- forcefully. Joylne changes- always, to fit the situation. Pucci demands that others change to fit his vision. And in the end- he almost wins. He even defeats jotaro, because his philosophy is an extension of hope. He hopes for a better world too.
100
Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Both stands are mirrors of theatre and plays. With joylne's strings acting as literally the strings of fate, spreading and stretching but never breaking as Joylne accepts that her fate is real- but decides to choose the outcome her fate holds.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Part 6- takes parts 3, 4, and 5, and puts them together. The argument of Pucci- is that the fate of the world- is wrong. That the world must be changed, for a perfect fate to be created. Jolyne instead argurs, that if you want a better fate- then make the change yourself.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Diavolo tries to avoid his doom. Fate will find him. Jojos believe in fate, as freeing. That fate means there is alwaysba path forward if you can find it. Dio believes in fate, as constricting. That fate means the path you have is set in stone. But to refuse fate, is a bill that comes due.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Holds the truth back forever. Diavolo is all about holding back the truth, by any means. Tearing up information using King Crimson. So long as he has the information advantage, he believes he will win. And gold experience requiem responds to this, with the message of fate. No matter how hard

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
That the truth is found through experience. Through sensation and through reaching understanding. Part 5 seems so disconnected from the other parts around it- other than polnareff. Because it is a question that never had to be asked between two sides fighting for truth. And no amount of secrecy

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
And so, in a rare instance, both the Jojo and the Dio legacies hold the same conclusion. Because the Jojos and Dio argued about what the truth meant. But they both always cared for the truth. Giorno is both a child of Dio and a Jojo, and there is no contradiction, because both Dio and Jojo agree-

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Diavolo, avoided any confrontation with the most dangerous stand userd, and constantly kept the upper hand, through the power of secrecy. His stand is so confusing because while mechanically it cuts time. The spirit of the stand is information loss. The permanent idea that you don't know something

Part 5 switches gears and says 'men like dio will always exis t. Part 4 is focusing on the positives of a crazy world. The absurdity of normal life. While part 5 still believes that nothing has changed, because in little italy, nothing ever did change.

Isolation- and a perverted, crushing view of normality. Now for part 5

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
How do you stay sane in a crazy world? Kira says to just be normal. To work to fit in, and keep your crazy to yourself. Josuke says to share the crazy, and focus on one another. Jotaro's hope may have been what did the final blow, but it was Josuke's community- each doing their part, that defeated

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Other than him has a life just as rich and fulfilling. Both Kira and Josuke's stands operate in mirrors of one another, able to repair and destroy so completely because they are the mirror ideas of isolation and community

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
'A bad habit.' One he keeps well out of sight like any self respecting citizen. But a bad habit kept out of sight is one unable to ever be scrutinized, or considered in any perspective but his own. Eventually, Kira loses all sense of what normal actually is, and moreover. That every person

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Yoshikage Kira thinks he is normal, and he has no one in his life to ever tell him that what he likes isn't. Or to even question what he's doing. Like the average Victorian, All his mental focus has been put into maintaining this idea of normality in a crazy world. And all his crazy is just-

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Obvioisly, from the moment we get a look inside his inner monologue, we know Yoshikage Kira is not normal. But its important that Kira THINKS he is normal. He just wants to live a quiet life. And has done nothing wrong. Oh, sure, he has some eclectic hobbies, but what person doesn't?

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Right on the opposite side of the spectrum. We see the most normal man of all time. He works a 9-5. He is diligent, he sticks to routine. Every day is almost the same, and he prides himself on his consistency. The world's most normalist man. Yoshikage Kira

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
And no one exemplifies that mindset more, than Josuke himself. Who seems more than willing to get into all kinds of shenanigans. He finds out aliens are real, and his first instinct is to go fuck with his annoying friend with his new alien friend. Trust everyone, enjoy life. Fix problems. And then-

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
To fix up anything that gets broken. Part 4 was a time for experimentation and growth. Where stands started both getting and losing their rules- the entire vibe of the town is that every single person you run into might have a full- complete story and world of their own in this silly town.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
He struggles to know what to do when a gentle life finds him. Josuke, is a near effortless kindness that Jotaro never got to have- but fought for. His stand- Crazy diamond, is directly mirroring star platinum. If you don't know what the future holds. Its ok to get a little crazy. Just be willing

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Part 4 says 'ok, what does a better world look like.' And it says Morioh. A small, quiet, crazy noisy bizarre town in which stands for the first time are able to be used for something other than battle. Jotaro steps into a better world, and finds himself stumbling. Because for all his hope-

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
The stronger his world becomes. And that is where DIO finds his limit. There is only so much cynicism to be found in the past. But hope for the future is limitless. Hope. Wisdom, and Will, can take on the world, and change the world for the better. It just takes time.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Claims them as his. He says that these two people were merely instruments of the world, and that they are ultimately just as selfish as he is, he just 'tells it like it is.' Jotaro, by contrast, looms toward the future. The more he can see a future, the more hope he has in a better world,

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
DIO's the world posits that the crushing weight of the past drives us forever downward. Jotaro's Star platinum: the world- says that the hope for the future drives us forward and upward. DIO gains strength, literally by corrupting the past. He takes the blood and body of the previois Jojo's, and

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
One that earnestly believes itself to be doing the right thing. Jotaro's star platinum, sees the same information Dio sees. A seemingly cruel world. And gets angry about it. It agrees that the world is frozen in time- but it doesn't agree that it has to be this way.
100
Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
And ultimately, what it decides is thus: the past defines the present. The world- time- is frozen because the world never changes. It is the remarks of those who have had cruelty put on them, and decide that cruelty is the only way to move forward. It is a mature, and cynical Selfishness.
100
Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
DIO is selfishness wrapped in the trappings of heroism. It's argument is simple, but so effective that all too many people fall for it. 'I am not evil. The world- is selfish. I simply understand that.' It is the charisma and the charm that jonathan had with the cynical, selfish mind of Dio.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Part 3, furthers the dialogue, and expands on it. The question stops being about individuals, and starts being about people. One could even say it becomes about the world. And it starts at the beginning again. Back to DIO. Back to that core of Selfishness. But it drapes itself in Jonathan.

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Selfish choice to keep living each moment. They're the 'pillar men' for a reason, after all. If their pursuit of perfection required them to do nothijg for a 1000 years, they would do so. But we don't have a 1000 years. We only have today. So make the most of it. (Moving to part 3)

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Random chance. A series of unfortunate events because Joseph prioritized living until the perfection came crashing down. Part two responds to part 1. "Maybe its good to be selfless. But selfishness needs to exist- because there is not perfection, there is only improvement. And that means making the

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
He looks down to see the hole he dug for himself. Because a pursuit of perfection means no room for error. No ability to correct when a mistake is finally made- and no room to improvise when someone decides that your perfection isn't good enough. Kar's attempt at perfection is ultimately sundered by

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
And he shamelessly claims them. Kars, by contrast, has a single, impossible dream. Attain perfection. Absolutely single minded in this pursuit, he is able to stay a step ahead of Joseph all throughout part 2. Until he achieves his goal. And he makes the mistake of Wile E. Coyote.
100
Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
Spectrum. Why? Because part 2 asks about whether it is better to pursue improvement, or perfection. Joseph is clumsy, brash, half a con artist, and a womanizer- but he's always seeking to improve. He doesn't have an end goal. He doesn't have a grand ambition. He lets the world make his opportunities

Sillylurker @sillyskabidi.bsky.social · 21/07/2026
That's right. Joseph Joestar, the bastard himself. Far more american folk hero than arthurian knight, Joseph is openly selfish, petty, proud, and out for himself. Part 2 is in conversation with part 1, and its major protagonist and antagonist now are on the oppossing sides of the selfish/selfless(5)
