Life Makes Whores of Us All

HAS ANYONE DONE AN EDIT OF NIALL AND RUBEN TO WILLING AND ABLE BY NOAH KAHAN? THAT SHIT WOULD FUCK ME UP. PLEASE.

Half man is so weird because I’ll go a couple days not interacting with any content related to it and then get onto tumblr and see a post or edit and immediately be hit with the most heinous, treacherous, painful feeling of anguish known to man because I missed a detail or something someone else picked up comes up. It’s like this show just keeps getting more tragic the further you try to stray from it.

Alright, I assume Jamie Bell is in more dark shit(he give freak energy but like almost in a James spader way) someone please drop the film recs where he’s his most feral, pathetic, or just plain weird pls 🙏😭

I’m eldest son-ing so hard I just cried this morning at work while listening to radio head because I couldn’t fix the sump pump in my basement and had to call my dad to come fix it (which he was disappointed about), and then walked upstairs to my room to get ready for work and my fight club poster had fallen off my wall but got stuck halfway down and ripped, and I couldn’t fix it because I had to go to work and then got to work and thought I would listen to an analysis on half man while I worked but they started talking about inadequacy and masculinity and then the water works started, which pissed me off even more. So now I’m eating a peanut butter sandwich on break while pissed off 😒

I’m begging everyone who loved half man to watch David Cronenberg’s filmography. His whole catalogue is sexy, obsessive, claustrophobic, tender, and just genuinely amazing! Do yourself a favor!

I literally can’t remember the exact quote from Mona, but the whole “he’s our Ruben or he’s our guy” or whatever Mona says is super interesting to me. The way Niall and Ruben purposely use the word “brother” to describe each other constantly has been theorized to be a barrier between the two of them. So it’s assumed that the barrier extends to Mona. That she would say something more akin to “well you know your brother…” or something like that because it places that solid barrier for what relationships between the three should look like. It would imply Mona as Ruben’s wife because the distinction is being made that Niall is Ruben’s “brother”. But her saying “he’s our guy or he’s ours” OURS. It implies that Mona sees Niall in a space similar to hers in Ruben’s life. This is when I remembered that Niall lost his virginity to Mona. That they had been intimate before the whole cheating thing. But Ruben was present. He was the one calling the shots. AND THE NEXT DAY ITS JUST THEM LAYING BASKING IN THE SUN, SMOKING AS IF HAVING PILLOW TALK AND ITS OK BECAUSE ITS JUST THEM And when Niall and Mona are intimate that last time, Ruben is not present. But the mess he leaves is. The ghost of his anger is present there. And when he finds out it feels like betrayal. BUT NOT BECAUSE NIALL HAD SEX WITH MONA. BUT BECAUSE NIALL HAD SEX WITH MONA AND RUBEN WASNT THERE TO CALL THE SHOTS THIS TIME. AND A CHILD IS (WHICH IS ONE OF THE ONLY THINGS RUBEN VIEWS AS A SECOND CHANCE) IS PRODUCED IN HIS ABSENCE BETWEEN TWO PEOPLE WHO MEAN SOMETHING TO HIM. AND HES NOT THERE. The whole sliding the flowers across the table as a “congratulations” to NIALL on the baby and not Ava. GOOD JOB NIALL FOR HAVING A DICK THAT PRODUCES CHILDREN, THAT I CANT DO. AND WE SHARE EVERYTHING. WE’RE “BROTHERS”. WHATS MINE IS YOURS AND WHATS YOURS IS MINE. The whole having Niall in his home KEEPING HOUSE. Mona offering Niall Ruben’s house coat. The assault of Niall’s body with the hood ornament of his expensive ass car.The paying for everything Niall has. LOCKING THE BARN DOOR SO THAT IT CAN ONLY BE THEM. WHATS YOURS IS MINE. GUYYYYYSSSSS ARE UNDERSTANDING AND SEEING THE LAYERS THERE? OR JUST LIKE CHOOSING TO IGNORE THAT?

Richard Gadd and Claire Danes actors on actors interview is exactly what I look like talking to other people about film and art. Like it’s so endearing and sweet to see them talking each other up and also geeking out about film and tv and shit. Like it’s very wholesome stuff ❤️ I can’t stand watching actors or creatives who take themselves too seriously to have genuine, fun conversation about their profession. Like yes pls be silly and fun and uplift each other 😭

So.. you guys think we’re getting a dvd/blu-ray/4k of Half man or?
