ok I endured it. now what!!!!!!!!!

the testament of ann lee was so good and its only grown on me since seeing but I really think the most interesting part to me is how it frames the shakers as a refuge for people who are sexually at odds with society like of course we have Ann’s own sexual traumas and Williams and Mary’s explicit and implicit queerness but also looking at the Wardley’s in their sexless marriage and John Hocknell being unmarried with a bastard son and how the first testament we see at a shakers meeting being a man who confesses to looking at his sister. The movie shows you the exact type of person that would be drawn to ann and her freedom from the sexual world without like making an explicit point of it or undermining ann’s or anyone else’s own belief in their gospel in a very compassionate way.

idk why but i feel like being a punk is for he/hims and doing ballet is for she/hers

in any given fictional situation, there is exactly one character who is At Fault and every other character involved is a passive victim. media literacy is when you correctly identify and condemn this character

"can you explain this gap in your resume" i lay in dark and dreaming sleep while countless wars and ages passed; i woke still weak a year before i joined you

alayne stone having like 5 layers of freudism in her relationship to petyr alone of being named after petyr's mother -> being the daughter of the woman he wanted -> being his imaginary daughter w the woman he wanted -> being a woman (girl) he wants now -> being a replacement for said woman he wanted like i think we have to kill this man guys
