¡MICHAEL OLISE ENTENDIÓ ABSOLUTAMENTE TODO! ❤️👏

En un fútbol donde muchas veces predominan los egos, Michael Olise decidió demostrar que la lealtad vale mucho más que cualquier fotografía perfecta.

Hace aproximadamente un mes, borró todas las publicaciones de su Instagram. Muchos pensaron que era una indirecta al Bayern Múnich en medio de los rumores que lo vinculaban con el Real Madrid. La realidad era completamente distinta.

Olise trabaja desde hace tiempo con una fotógrafa personal, Florence Pernet, quien lo acompaña a los partidos y es la única autora de las imágenes que él publica en sus redes sociales.

Durante el Mundial, Florence no pudo entrar a Estados Unidos porque le negaron la visa.

¿La reacción de Olise? En lugar de sustituirla por las espectaculares fotografías en alta definición que le toman decenas de fotógrafos en cada partido, decidió borrar todo su perfil y dejar de utilizar cualquier imagen profesional.

Desde entonces, únicamente publica las fotos que Florence le hace… fotografiando la pantalla de su televisión desde casa mientras lo ve jugar.

Sí, mientras el mundo tiene imágenes en 4K de Michael Olise, él prefiere compartir las que toma la persona que siempre estuvo a su lado.

Eso habla de una lealtad que hoy escasea en el fútbol.

Mi respeto absoluto para Michael Olise y para sus padres, por haber formado a una persona tan humilde, agradecida y fiel a quienes han sido parte de su camino.

UN TIPAZO. RESPETO TOTAL 👏❤️

The Bear S5

The Bear is a show about people trying their best, one grueling day at a time. It's a show about breaking patterns, in this final season even more literally than before.

The entire 8 episode stretch serves as an inversion of the S1-S3 patterns that we got so used to. We've seen the same setups time and time again, except this time the punchline is different, it's the concept of 4x7 stretched out to every aspect of the show.

Compare how a typical shift went in the early seasons. How things cascaded when someone fucked up. The same triggers keep happening here, too, everyone messes up something, but the rest of the team is there to reel them back in. One of the biggest strengths of television is time, and The Bear is not afraid to make use of it. In the last two seasons, they've willingly sacrificed some moment-to-moment excitement, to convey the arduous nature of healing, and now is the time they get to cash in all of that buildup.

What's also wonderful about the execution here is, they put you in the same headspace as someone with these traumas. You see a mistake happen, you hear Richie call out to Carmy in a raised voice, and your mind immediately goes "oh fuck, here it goes". Your instinct is to catastrophize, you wince in preparation for the chaos. Except this time, Richie just goes "cousin, we got you", and we move forward.

The Bear does not try to sidestep the ugliness and difficulty of healing. It does not try to pretend conflicts are now simply gone, and it does not act like getting better means the pull of the abyss is gone. Life hasn't become unproblematic, we just got better at pulling ourselves, and eachother back even stronger in the opposite direction.

Another prominent theme this season is the synthesis of identities. It's most visible with Richie, the thesis being his old "The Beef" self, the antithesis is the side of him that "Forks" brought out, and this season is him finding a balance he can embrace.

But like I say, it's a broader theme than just Richie's arc, arguably the show in its entirety is about synthesis, and learning to integrate our past. The sandwhich booth, the OG shirts they wear, recipes inspired by our childhood, facing our past, not just turning away from conflict, but learning how to face it without crumbling. This is how we learn to heal.

Talking a bit about the approach of the whole season, the single-day approach was a bold decision, but it works. It works because for the most part, this season is no longer about development, or gradual progress. It's a culmination. A single event that allows all their past learnings to sort themselves out, and arrange into a cohesive whole. All those fragments of insight, and wisdom that we've accumulated over four seasons, now get a chance to find their place.

Not only does the final season benefit form all the gradual groundwork laid down by previous seasons, it retroactively elevates it. You look back, even at parts that frustrated you, and see that everything coming together wouldn't feel nearly as rewarding, if you'd never had to suffer through it falling apart again and again.

For me, despite the occasional tonal issues, this season solidifies The Bear as one of the boldest and most unique shows of the streaming era, being daring enough to turn half the show on its head while still staying true to its essence.
