What if Wicked's Ending Actually Revealed the Truth?
Whether the ending is that the "wicked witch" really is dead, she isn't dead and Glinda believes she is, or Glinda knows while she takes on the ruling of Oz, the reason for change in Oz is not fully known amongst the citizens what the full truth really was and Elphaba gets to remain under the guise of twisted tales forever. It gives way to a political message about what we believe we know may not be the full truth. There are many fan fictions and rewritten endings to the tale. I was coming across these while looking into the reasons for the choice of ending. The creation of a tragic tale of a person ostracized by society because others could not see Elphaba for her true motive, and only by the motives that others made up for her.

Overthinking is one of the quietest forms of stress. It keeps the mind spinning, replaying the past and worrying about the future. In a world full of noise, constant updates, and endless decisions, it’s easy to feel mentally overwhelmed. But sometimes, relief comes from simple words—words that gently remind us to breathe, slow down, and see life differently.

Rachel Reviews: Adolescence (2025)
*I started writing this some time ago. Life temporarily distracted me and time passed. I'd written too much of it to let it languish here unread but please bear in mind that the Emmys were held in September. I liked my intro too much to alter it considerably.

Scrolling Through Ghosts: How Dead Internet Theory Started To Feel Real To Me
I used to think the Dead Internet Theory was just another creepy internet story. The kind of thing you read at 2 a.m., nod at once or twice, then forget the next morning. But over the last few years, it stopped feeling like an abstract idea and started feeling a lot closer to how my daily time online actually looks.
