Picture it - Vegas gets shot in the family showdown, and Pete drags him under a table trying to keep him alive by applying pressure to the wound. Vegas tells Pete to just let him die, and Pete replies that is too easy. He applies more pressure causing pain and says "you must suffer until I'm satisfied"

Launched in 1907, Industrial Worker is the official English-language publication of the Industrial Workers of the World, a worker-led union dedicated to direct action, workplace democracy and industrial unionism. Follow the IWW on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.
Questions, comments, and other concerns about Industrial Worker should be directed to the IWWโs Industrial Worker Editor at iw@iww.org.
The IW is the place to go stay abreast of what's going on in the One Big Union and its affiliates and to keep up with the radical movement for workers' rights. In addition to current events, the IW also conducts interviews and publishes articles about labor history and what's going on in the IWW.
Like we had said in this article from 2019: "If youโre a member of the working class, then this is your blog. We built this site to be a place where workers can write about what matters to them and share their experience in labor and community organization."
Come check it out, it's real good
one can instantly free oneself from the chains of identity discourse by simply conceiving of sexuality as something that is dialectical and not metaphysical
No thoughts, just Vegas posing Pete to fuck him the same way he posed him the first time he offered Pete tenderness.
...No wait okay I lied I have a lot of thoughts actually, because there are other parallels between these two scenes and they're quietly driving me insane:
Pete telling Vegas to set him free by letting him die vs Pete telling Vegas to set him free by binding him
Vegas leaning over Pete with a pill in his mouth vs Vegas leaning over Pete with a condom in his mouth, when the pill was a promise of change and no further harm
(I could rotate the second image 90 degrees to show the visual parallel better but hell if the tilted camera isn't tipping me right over the edge into madness, along with Vegas framed directly between Pete's arms on bottom and the chains wrapped around his ankles on top. This post isn't meant to be about framing, but asdk;lfsj;lkj)
Pete looking up at Vegas, mutinous and trying to understand his actions, vs Pete looking up at Vegas both willing and completely aware
And afterwards, Vegas settling on the floor facing opposite Pete and meeting his eyes with a chain visually splitting them apart vs settling on the bed beside Pete and meeting his eyes with nothing in between
