from the dimlit halls of other places

you can't oppression olympics your way out of how your trauma affected you.

"other people had it worse" bitch! I don't care! just from looking at you it's plain and obvious that you've had a time of it! a person can drown in six inches of water, it doesn't matter if someone else is drowning in ten feet! you're both still fucking drowning! show yourself a little bit of compassion before I come over there and do it for you. this is a threat

does anybody else remember when the h*nger g*mes movies were big and there was that really dark, haunting song in them about a man getting lynched and people watching it because that kind of violence was so normalized in their world (that “are you are you coming to the tree, they strung up a man, they say he murdered three” song), and then in real life they made like a club version of that song to play on the radio

There is literally nothing funnier than the marketing of teh Hunger Games franchise because they couldn’t figure out what to do other than perfectly imitate the villains of the story

sorry but can you imagine getting owned so hard all your coworkers have to come together and ban the specific insult you got hit with. thats how you know they got you good

"the classics are all written by straight white men" alexandre dumas??

also are we seriously meant to believe that your refusal to read anything that wasn't written for children is actually an act of antiracism and not one of anti-intellectualism bc like. i dont believe you. do you have the same moral objections to the percy jackson novels?

who directs most marvel movies? oh wow that's crazy. so i take it you're all boycotting them too, and not just dead authors who are not hurt at all by ur lack of financial support

the way sokka looks like his mom but tries so hard to be his dad and the way katara looks like her dad and tries so hard to be her mom is. ouch

it’s like. sokka says he doesn’t know what his mother looks like but throws himself in front of katara time and time again. he comes up with plans and tries to lead armies but inspires and loves and guides five kids without parents instead. he’s creative and funny and goofy and so so so full of love. and katara says that she’s been doing all the work around camp since mom died but all she wants is to learn how to fight. she’s angry at her dad for abandoning her but stands in front of a group of hopeless earthbenders and attempts to rally them with a speech. she tries and tries to be soft but ends up blowing up a factory to save the enemy. sokka wants to be his father but carries his mother’s heart. katara feels like she has to be her mother but has her father’s fight.

every like 3 weeks im reminded that Hannibal was a show that existed that was really just a story about a high class cannibal that was so headass over some little sweaty detective that he literally just tore his whole high class life down to be with that little sweaty man and it was like a modern gothic romance with all the works. im spoiled now. where else am i gonna get a show where there’s pigs eating people and whole ass people climbing out of horse corpses and makes siouxsie sioux come out with a whole new ass song like. im sick, man, i just want her back 😔
