the thing about Peter Pan is that Neverland is like. a projection of the fascinations and expectations of a little English boy from the Edwardian era. I think it is fundamentally unsalvageable into a non-racist setting UNLESS☝️you lean into the horror of transformation and treat it like a kind of Area X in which human beings are terraformed by the subconscious will of a little white boy. like, hell, that happens to Wendy—Peter transforms her into a Mother, which is the only significant role he can really imagine for a girl in his world.

while i understand that this is meant to be a joke about hellish capitalism, again, we cannot erase an important dimension to his work: franz kafka was a jew. he and his families were jews during a time period where traditional, religiously-based jew hatred was being replaced with a new pseudoscientific belief that jews were to be hated and oppressed because they were a subhuman race. this transition to race-based hatred of jews meant that even assimilated jews- who considered themselves citizens of states before they were ever jews- were now being irrationally targeted and hunted.

I’m going a step further and saying Kafka’s work—including the metamorphosis—is impossible to really interact with on any but the most surface level without an understanding of Kafka’s identity as a Jew and the social setting that placed him in.

Literally the only reason Franz Kafka existed was because his Jewish ancestor was allowed to have a family.

wanting to get shot in the head for wanting something is also wanting

Also the scene with the Narrator interrputing them fucking is sooo funny from Marla's POV. Getting railed by your weird boyfriend and he just stops suddenly and quietly says "What's up?" To no one in particular and then goes quiet and then says "Do you wanna get in here and finish her off?" and when you're like, very understandibly "Who tf are you talking to??" he just says shut up and goes back to fucking you.
